I buy digital because I'm lazy, have nowhere to store physical games, and I assume that if I ever want to play an old game it'll be far enough down the road where someone will have made proper emulation for it anyway

Hey it's that same lily white rear end in a top hat who asked me to save their pokemon even though I also didn't hjave any pokemon to help with. Just expects me to risk my life for the story to progress. gently caress her.

Also when do I get a pokemon in this game before or after the elite 4?

I posted the other day asking about which 3DS to get. I'm gonna get the $99 Black Friday New 3DS XL. And I think I'm gonna get Sun. My friend said the GameStop employee told him people have preordered Moon waaaay more than Sun. How come?

So why is Ash in school now?

Is it cause he never went to school so he could do magical animal poaching?

Can some pirate or Australian tell me when the last place to save is when scumming for starter gender/nature? I think I heard something about a bridge cutscene a few days back but I don't remember if that was for the starter or some legendary.

Couple of possible reasons:

-Moon is 12 hours shifted off real-time and that's a gimmick that Sun doesn't have
-Cooler cover legendary?

That's all I got.

e: wait, totally unrelated, how big is the new 3DS XL versus the old 3DS XL? I might just upgrade.

From what I could gather without knowing Japanese: Mr. Mime won a vacation to Alola and brought the family along, Oak asked them to take a brown egg to his brother since they were going all the way there, during their stay there Ash thought Z-Moves were dope AF and his mom thought it was a nice idea to get him in school at long last?

Plus Fell Stinger got buffed to 50 and now gives +3 Attack.

Be sure to thank Buzzwole for his contributions to changing stinger based moves.

Probably because after 20 years he still can't figure out how to properly breed/train his pokemon for ultimate sperg power

He wants to learn all the Z-moves that are known of in Alola and Kukui's school is a vehicle for that.

If there's any justice in this world the show will end when Ash faces Red and creates a time paradox that destroys the entire pokemon universe.

Ash and Red meet

They find each other to be perfectly likable human beings

They battle. It ends in a draw.

My favorite thing about the Pokemon anime ever is when Ash was going to win the Sinnoh league after all of his possible rivals got knocked out/became his friend/whatever.

So his next opponent was a guy using legendaries that destroyed Ash's team with ease.

The dub trailer for the new anime series has such a completely different tone to the Japanese version it's ridiculous. It's almost polar opposites.
