I think this will be the generation remembered as one with a lot of Electric types. I of course have very little to go by but we've seen more of those so far than we've gotten in certain previous generations period. It's an exciting time - maybe we'll get more than two megas finally!

I'm guessing that Melemele (yellow) island where Tapu Koko is a guardian is an island where electric types flourish. Get ready for an electric gym!

I'm betting the other major islands have different types of Pokemon that are common there. Ula ula island will be the island of fire types and Oma oma o island will be the island of grass types.

US Nationals are this weekend, and that includes Pokken and the TCG, which are infinitely more watchable than the shitshow that is VGC, so be sure to turn in for some epic Pokemon action.

This has been worth watching just to see all the Night March counter decks people are playing.

My pokemans were infected this morning by pokerus. I've banked one and put one in my PC, do I need to manage it some other way to keep it going or is that enough? It would suck to lose it.

I was going to go to Nationals for Streetpassing and watching Pokken, since it's right down the street from me, but now I'm going home to another state for the weekend. I wish Nintendo didn't hold it in a holiday weekend. Have a great time!

Iwanko was already going to be on my team because it's absolutely adorable, but Rockruff is such a cutie name!!! :3

As long as it's in the PC, daycare, or Pokebank the infection will stay viable. The clock only runs if it's in your active party. I recommend infecting as many as you can, then keeping them in your box for later. So long as one has the active infection (with the PKRS sign next to its name) rather than the pink dot, it'll be ready to spread to more at some later date. Just don't keep them out overnight if you intend to keep using them to infect since it will stop being infectious after that.

This is the one problem with the rock puppy: there are too many good pun names it could have had. Although "Rockruff" is pretty adorable so I don't mind that they picked that one to much :3:

Thanks! Yeah I'm gonna take pictures. I've never been to nats so i'm hoping something cool like the giant pikachu costumes are there, and i live on the north-side so its really only a 15 minute drive down barring any traffic.

a few months ago i used to live a bike ride away but uh that area wasn't too great

this is also a pretty big reminder that i need to finish my pokebank collection so that i can get ready for sun/moon...

My personal changes to the type chart, off the top of my head:

Grass no longer weak to or resisted by Flying
Poison super-effective on Fighting
Steel super-effective on Dragon
Grass and Water resist Rock
Electric super-effective on Steel
Ice resists Fairy and Water
Ice super-effective on Fairy
Grass immune to Fairy
Ground weak to Flying
Normal resists Fairy
Ghost resists Psychic
Electric weak to Grass (not so sure about this one)

Well someone is biased towards grass

I can imagine Drampa handing out the Berries it traveled so far to find to little kids without hesitation. Also a few Werther's Originals that it has no idea where they came from.

So I was thinking of doing a Nuzlocke run of Pokemon X since I had an urge to play it again and it has really good pokemon variety. However, it would require me to delete my Pokemon X save data obviously. I transferred basically everything to Omega Ruby already, and off the top of my head I can't think of anything you can only do in X/Y in regards to making competitive pokemon. So is there any problem with doing this that I'm missing?

To it's credit the rest of it's information specifies it goes berserk if someone hurts a kid near it. Or you wail on it whichever I guess.
