I still feel that 5% chance is better the the times they did 1% and Swarm Pokemon in gen 2. Also Feebas.

yea I find it weird that they have a lot of new pokemon show up very rarely. its a little annoying but the oldies are goodies for the most part- especially with the various buffs moves/abilities pokemon got.
What are you talking about, of course you'd rather have Slowpoke and Caterpie available right away instead of Rockruff. :downs:

The "shove a bunch of cool old mons in early" method worked in BW2 because the Gen 5 guys already had a chance to shine. It's just annoying here(although I'm sure it'll make repeat playthroughs a lot less boring).

I've been trying to get a Thick Club for my Cubone and just having the most garbage luck. I know it's very rare, but I need to know something before I waste any more time than I already have:

Can SOS Cubones have Thick Clubs?

I decided to do a little breeding for just some minor stuff and wound up with a box full, thanks little fenced in area in front of the daycare!

I tossed my rejects up on Wonder Trade just to see what a box worth of poo poo gets me. Shockingly mostly garbo but I got a couple neat things like a level 40 Alolan Exeggutor female I can use.

Is using a Vullaby even worth it since it doesn't evolve until level 50 something? What the gently caress Gamefreak, that's when Dragons and Pseudo Legendaries evolve not regular birds.

I still have no idea if you can get a Thick Club from SOS Cubones, but I have one now. I should have looked into Compound Eyes earlier, it would have saved me a ton of time and effort.

Pokemon Uranium not nominated for a "fan game" award at the Game Awards but got removed presumably at Nintendo's request.

This is an outrage.

Uranium is garbage and doesn't deserve any kind of accolades.

being shiny does literally nothing and you have to go through a bunch of text just to reach the pokemon selection at all

so yea sure go for it

so not sure if this theory is out there- but maybe the reason breeders don't know how eggs come about is because captured pokemon aren't actually alive. I mean we put them in PC for storage. Maybe pokeballs completely destroy the captured pokemon, converting it into data and what is sent out is reassembled holographic dead pet. And the only people who really know about this is sylph co and the breeders. All the treats and stuff is to let kids feel like they are taking care of something alive. :tinfoil:
