Hypothetically assuming I'm not tempted to get both versions, is there a good place to find a consolidated list of differences between them?

Also Drampa is exclusive to Moon and Turtonator is exclusive to Sun.

We don't know of many yet, other than the box legendaries there's a couple of exclusive Pokemon, namely whether Rockruff evolves into a wolf or a werewolf and which ugly monkey you get. Also, the realtime clock is rotated 12 hours for Moon, such that it's the middle of the night at noon and daytime at midnight.

That's just speculation because they showed up on the boxart of the respective versions, mind.

YMMV, but considering pokeman games don't really depreciate in the used market it would be silly not to buy both at 64 bucks.

I already have all my regular water pokemon in the game and I'm still going to use Primarina anyway. Guess I'm gonna end up doing a mostly water team :3:

Thanks to DACK FAYDEN for posting the Amazon pre-order link a couple pages back, since 31.99 is a good price! Hypothetically assuming I'm not tempted to get both versions, is there a good place to find a consolidated list of differences between them? What version(s) are people planning on getting?

Assuming you're a grown man/woman with a job here but just buy both

If you're looking to just buy one for a literal child just ask if they like bats or lions more

It's on sale on Amazon for $32(plus shipping, if you don't have Prime).

But the normal price is still only $40, so :shrug:.

The best deal for me is Toys R Us since it's free shipping and i don't have amazon prime, but with taxes it still rounds up to basically 35 dollars. At that point my mind goes "gently caress those five dollars, preload it and play at 9:01pm PST pokemonpokemonpokemonpokemon"

XP share + lucky egg is amazing. gently caress the complainers who think grinding XP and rerolling bullshitty RNG remotely even resembles actual skill in this pokemans.

What? Did you have a stroke? Where did I say I want to force people to grind or even came close to saying anything about grinding being skill? I like the gen 6 XP Share, but if you leave it on all the time, which you do since you're swapping dudes onto the team a lot, anyone that isn't constantly being boxed gets way way ahead of that games level curve. Playing a nuzlocke in X at the moment and My team is consistently multiple levels above the gym leader and that's with me swapping pokemon in and out. It's got problems, man. But that's all besides the point since my entire post was about how you could keep it as is and have it so XP scales up for lower level dudes to give them a bit of a catch-up bonus.

Neither are snakes, but that's neither here nor there. The breed of owl pictured is prehistoric and extinct. It fits in perfectly with all the other Grass starters' inspirations.
