Speaking of fan-made Pokemon, a guy on reddit designed Regis for every type and they're awesome

Electric, Water, and Fire
Ghost, Psychic, and Dark
Ground, Flying, Grass, and Poison
Dragon, Bug, Fighting, and Fairy
These are mostly really cool, I like Bladeless Fan Regi-Flying.

But unfortunately I clicked on the last one first and Dragon, Bug, and Fighting are all horrifying and I never want to see them again.

Oh drat! Is this game any good, cause I could definitely see myself playing it.

It's pretty fun, just don't expect it to explain itself adequately in any respect. And the real game begins after you beat the main story mode.

I once got a fortune cookie that said "Ask your mom". I've also gotten several blank fortune cookies... I guess that explains why I'm broke.
So a couple weeks ago I repurchased pokebank after about a year and a half of it lapsing, and it still had my pokemon. Any idea how long they store your pokemon once it lapses?

More final evolution "leaks"

Obviously 99% chance they're fake but the designs are interesting to talk about. Grookey and Sobble final forms look...weird but fit a Sword/Shield theme. Scorbunny's is just kinda more speed rabbit. I guess they'd be Grass/Fighting, mono Fire, and Water/Steel? I'd be fine with that.

The final stage for Grookey is the least believable thing I have ever seen. Yeah let's make it wear stripy pyjama trousers. I quite like the second stages they came up with for Scorbunny and Sobble.

e: I just noticed that the Grookey final evo also has a front butt

I didn't like how vanilla SM's plot was just about Lillie wanting to go shout at her mom some more, or how it ends up with her just going off, and a lot of the scenes (the opening, the Looker crap in post game) dragged on too much so I myself prefer what they did for USUM.

It's wildly inconsistent. Some people go without renewing for months or over a year in extreme cases, some find their Pokes deleted after only a couple of weeks. The theory seems to be (unless they've changed it) that they do sweeps at irregular intervals of a certain number of accounts. It keeps you on your toes (and paying money to Nintendo).

those supposed evo leaks are genuinely tripping some 'you've seen these before' alarm bells in my head and i'm trying to remember when and where

like i think someone mocked up a middle stage to transition to the final ones and maybe did a bit of editing overall but the shapes and overall feel of the designs is super goddamn familiar

I also prefer the story of S/M over USUM. Lillie and Gladion having to deal with their ill mother in the aftermath and trying to repair their incredibly broken relationship with her is something that I’m sure hits home for many people. I also wonder how many kids played the game and identified with Lillie because they have a parent who behaves in the same way, telling them how to dress, bossing them around and threatening their pets.

It was a few pages ago, but these are my favourite bugs:

Oh drat, I was under the impression that they kept them essentially forever. I haven't played a Pokemon game since I finished Moon more than two years ago and haven't paid for the bank since around that time. I have boxes full of pokemon bred with perfect IVs and egg moves, EV trained and leveled up. Going to be upset if they're gone :ohdear:

I fired up the 3DS last night but my daughter's copy of Moon was in the system and not mine. I looked in her computer and found that she stored her pokemon in boxes labeled The oldest, The cool kids, The bathers, The dab police, ADORABLE!!!!, and THE BEST.

Some more? When did she shout at her in the first place? She was dressed up like a space jellyfish for half the game because she was that terrified of defying her.
Stealing cosmog was done out of desperation because she was afraid Lusamine was going to kill it. A big chunk of the plot is Lillie working up the courage to come out of her shell and actually confront her mentally ill mom
rather than quietly letting her stomp all over her.

on the other hand, apparently the scene with the Skull grunts who just want to breakdance while surfing on a mantine was added in USUM therefore it's the superior story

You on the other hand make a compelling argument.

Yea it was going to get in the last word after her abuser already hosed off to another world when that would have been the perfect oportunity to just :sever: and go become a kickass trainer, instead she gets dragged right back in and has to put her life on hold again - trying to fix her abuser which is also a big no-no.

Lusamine is also her mother though. And as abusive as she is it's not unrealistic for a child to still love them and try to save them even if that's not the best course of action. Lillie didn't go into Ultra space to tell her off more she wanted her come back to her senses. It's only when Lusamine starts actively dehumanizing her again Lillie lost her temper and cut her off.

This is coming from someone who's in a family situation not entirely dissimilar to this. So do me a favor and stop being flippant about it, my mother is actively trying to sever with my Grandmother and it's a lot more complicated than you think.

This new Pokemon game might make me buy a Switch (I'll see what the new model is) despite the fact that the only Pokemon game I ever actually beat was Blue, multiple times, when I was a wee lad. Ever since, I'd always buy the game, make it about 40 hours in, then put it down forever, for no discernible reason.

These most recent leaks do look like the SM leaks with Pennywise and fire panther. The grookey final form does remind me of the silly welsh folk dance dudes someone brought up when the starters were shown as a possible reference for Grookey's musical hints.
