I finished the first island just now and I'm enjoying it for the most part but boy it sucks that enemy trainers seem to have the "one pokemon allowed" rule going on.

I really like the intro animations and how fluid it all is but... please tell me they get more than one pokemon on the upcoming islands.

oh they have way more pokemon later on, oh boy

I feel like the low pokemon count on the trainers is some sort of countermeasure against the fact that if you try to catch almost anything it will do the best it can to call its entire extended family and its long arse list of friends into battle before it will give you a chance to throw a ball at it.

Wait, really? God, that's depressing, I've put actual effort into prepping a cool team of dudes to transfer for the first time ever, having to decide between sitting on the game for two months (where I have trans-pacific flights scheduled, no less) or forging on without them is going to kill me :(

I got Moon for my oldest, swinging by BB before picking her up from school. It's a weird feeling in a good way, I remember playing blue for the first time, this franchise is still around and she's about to start. Crazy in a good way.

After you get Tauros Ride, go back to the lab and go left. You'll get to the area from the demo and that's where you can find doge.

Shiny, level 100, and competitive stats/nature. No HA though, but I'm guessing those might not be available and might flag their legitimacy checks.

Why did they delay EU release for this gen anyway? XY hit world wide at the same time, why not Sun and Moon?

I've got a nine hour day ahead of me before I can head to GameStop and pick up my copy. It's gonna be a long day.

Can't believe it took me this long to realise the skull was a stylized S.

Also team skull is the best, I love them. They're all a bunch of disaffected youths that just want to be taken seriously, but nobody gives them a second thought. They also have the best lines so far.

The best pokemon teams are entirely made of giant goobers.

It's such a joy to finally take off the dumb hat!

Also great is the fact that they let you get interesting Pokémon early. You're not just stuck with the obligatory trash rats/birds/bugs and a starter before the first "gym".

I have no idea why X/Y didn't let this, the majority of people I've seen online who have figured out how to change clothes have all removed the hat. Hats are dumb inherently, especially the ones featured in pokemon.

I'm guessing one of the important developers insisted that a mandatory silly hat was an "essential" part of the playable Pokémon trainer image. Good that they've finally cast off that tradition.
