All your friends and foes,
they thought they knew ya,
but look who's in your heart now.
Question: Does Pokemon Bank work if you have the save files but not the actual games installed? I should have omega ruby and x save files on my 3DS, but I don't have either game installed. Just curious if I'll need to reinstall them before Sun/Moon comes out.

To transfer TO bank? You need the actual save file and game I believe (I don't think you can transfer from JUST a save file to bank). To transfer FROM bank, you just need Pokemon Bank and a destination.

Does anyone know any good beginner's guides for speedrunning Gen1?
I saw the Pokemon Blue reverse-badge run on SGDQ and I'm really interested in trying something like that as my first run, but every guide I find is immenself, painfully unfriendly to beginners.

There's a website and a wiki with plenty of info. You're not going to find much that isn't "friendly to beginners" for something like reverse-badge runs, if only because the bugs involved are nonesense in the first place, but you can always dig or ask around for stuff.

I think that is why I never liked Greninja's design: it looks like some guy in a suit rather than a frog.

It's kind of ironic, some of the more classic Pokemon designs like Rhydon and Tyranitar are based off kaiju, which are literally guys in suits.

What would some good partners be for Tyrantrum in BSS? He's my second favorite gen 6 design besides Xerneas, but I never got around to using him. Might as well gently caress around before Sun/Moon come out.

I play triples, and I like to pair mine with Talonflame and Noivern, so he can earthquake to his heart's content.

Good as new.
Looking to go back to Gen 1 since I haven't played them since I was a kid. I can't decide whether to get Blue or Yellow for my 3DS. Is there any reason I shouldn't get Yellow? I can't remember if you can still do the missingno trick in Yellow or not.

E: Decided on Blue since that's the one I have the most nostalgia for.

The bear is called Kiteruguma and is Normal/Fighting with the abilities Fluffy and Klutz, while the ghost is Mimitsukiyu and is Ghost/Fairy. It has the ability called Disguise.
People in Alola are scared of Kiteruguma to the point of having warning signs about it. It is really strong and can break anytthing in two. It likes to hug its trainers but is strong. Raising one puts your life in danger.

I can't believe Pikachu is dead.

E: dang, I can't believe I was beaten in posting this too. Such a sad day!

Does that thing actually always look like a hosed up Pikachu or is that one of his disguises? I hope it can disguise itself as a hosed up version of any of the Pokemon, similar to Ditto

those seriously look like weird and lovely fakemon.

i guess the ghost is okay, if really weird, but the bear is terrible. it looks totally flat, like a really lovely knock-off beanie-baby where they just forgot to dye the front.
