well aegislash and mega mawile are unbanned, as is genesect, and greninja and swagger. also a bunch of old megas dont exist anymore like heracross, medicham, i think lopunny - they're coded in game but theres no way to get the stones at the moment. i think super-zygarde is also OU to start with lol

yeah it was such a bizarre nerf for swagger that im a little bewildered. truthfully i still prefer a meta without it bc i think its really boring when a last mon klefki can beat like 3-4 things that should kill it but its nice it was nerfed

the one thing ppl are most mad about being back is aegislash but i mean i love its design so much and im more used to metagames centered around a few mons (like ttar swampert blissey skarm) in ADV so having aegi doesn't seem too wild to me but they'll probs ban it again

Had to order stuff on Amazon so I "pre-ordered" and it's set to be delivered the 22nd. So it can sit on the counter until the 25th when I actually get a DS. :smug:

He looks like a Pokemon, but I can't quite put my finger on which one.



Anyway, amazon says my thing is still on time and should arrive tomorrow so whatever if it gets here cool if not I'll look for a copy later somewhere and if unable to cancel it I'll just flip my amazon copy for a few bucks at a gamestop or wherever. I accept this. I welcome death.

Speaking of which, I looked at the various egg groups that the new Pokémon belong to and a lot of them were expected. A few are a bit strange though. Comfey only belongs to the Grass egg group despite not being a Grass type, and it isn't in the Fairy egg group.

There are no new Human-like egg group Pokémon either.

Pay the normal price. Sale price isn't worth it if it's just going to be a pain in the rear end to find one.

Considering buying the digital version because I am impatient and want to play in two hours instead of waiting til tomorrow... does Nintendo have any of those limitations on how many times I can download the game? Cause Sun will take up my entire SD card and that is bothersome.

Grass Owl
Electric Bug or Raichu whichever's better
Rock Dog
Arcanine
Starmie

What should the sixth one be besides the mimic one everyone's nuts about (that apparently takes a long time to get to)?

I preordered Amazon's Sun/Moon steelbook thing back in July and it's not showing up until Tuesday. :argh:

They're giving me $20 and an apology for the delay. Onward to the eShop I guess.

Edit: wait, hang on. The support guy just said they're sending me the bundle and also issuing a full refund after it ships? wtf Amazon

Sun/Moon is ungodly huge for a 3DS game, literally 1000 blocks larger than Alpha Sapphire. So far the only game I've seen larger is Xenoblade.
