It's lame that I can't add you to the saved list unless I actually track down your avatar in my endlessly updating park for some reason.

If you go into the castle I think you can page people and add them that way. it's still weird

I tried that but when I went to the page list you weren't on the list. But you were if I walked around outside. It's a cool looking area but I wish they also had an option for just a bunch of normal menus

im glad that with the summoning thing, people were probably getting annoyed with it during playtesting and based Nintendo said "well how about instead of just limiting it, we make it fun? like some wacky poo poo will happen if help keeps showing up"

I hope they expand it in the switch version so more than two pokemon can fight you, and maybe let us call in a second guy as well to even the odds...

It's 2006. I am taking 276 yeti furs from the goodies hoard.
I'm using all my self control to not buy this until after Thanksgiving because i'm going to see family i haven't seen in forever and I know that if I have pokémon i'll spend the entire trip gaming and isolating myself because i'm 12 years old lol. Can't wait though and i'm glad y'all are having fun

Yeah I used dire hit on dartrix while holding a scope lens so razor leaf had 100% crit chance and he wiped the water boss pretty hard

It has a brand new move this gen too:

To inflict massive damage, the user burns itself out. After using this move, the user will no longer be Fire type. 130BP
