As far as a 3rd version or sequel on Switch is concerned:

The league is under construction so they also don't have the gym leaders to award badges. Each town has a construction site with building materials that are never explained. At the same time the trial captains are going to age out at 20 and have to find another profession. I could see the older ones repurposed as gym leaders in a sequel set ~3 years after the main game. Then there's plenty of unique characters that don't get a lot of screen time that can also hop into a position. Throw in a couple new characters and you've got a new game.

Yeah, that's true. So they might pull a Sun & Moon 2? I guess it's not like there's no precedent.

I'll give you $1.

Also I don't understand why everyone freaks out so hard about getting that female starter when everyone is bound to be swimming in starters within a week.

I have no idea how this SOS Battle system works and Serebii isn't helping.

Also, the encounter tables are different depending on which patch of grass you're in too?

Its when they are at low health but I think you can't get in A SOS until they game tells you about it.

Also I like that one area can have different Pokemon in one part of the route makes the game feel more alive.

I like that the pokedex tells you exactly what patch of grass to catch pokemon, and honestly, I'm kind of preferring this over DexNav. I'm fighting all the trainers, and going to all the photo spots to see pokemon to fill out my pokedex, so I can find'em and catch'em. It feels a lot more natural.

It is criminal that the Oak in this game is not just the original Oak who is going through a beach bum phase.

They did that a bit in X and Y with flower colours, mostly for deciding which colour Flabébé you got or whether you got the pre-Surf grass patch encounter table or the post-Surf one. Mostly it just mixed up the percentages. Sounds like it's a bigger deal in SuMo though.

There are separate encounter tables for every patch of grass, yeah.

Bullshit. Whatever move it has can run out of PP and then it can use struggle. If Metapod can kill poo poo, so can some space monster.


I deeply regret evolving my little owl buddy. I recommend everyone with the owl hold off on evolving until it's ready for it's final form. The cuteness goes away and is replaced with the revulsion you feel when you see a teenager picking at their acne. How do you release pokemon?
