My favourite story is that I hatched and raised a shiny Aegislash in a Luxury Ball the day Germany won the World Cup. All signs point to this being an omen.

Stupid question for Let's Go Eevee: How do I get spawns to change? Battle 'em? Walk off screen? Wait? Because I'd like to chain ponytas on down the road.

Just walking offscreen won't change the spawns, nor will waiting for them to go away (they'll just respawn elsewhere), if I am remembering what has been reported here correctly. If you want them to change, you need to battle (remember battling something that's not of your chain will break the chain) or leave the route and come back (this will NOT break your chain).

Do you mean how do you get different Pokemon to show up? You can either wait (they go away after a small amount of time) or change screens and come back. From personal experience, the type you're chaining tends to be more common as your chain gets higher, though I'm not sure if that's actually the case. However, some Pokemon can only actually show up one at a time (e.g., Bulbasaur in Veridian Forest). The following will break a chain: 1) successfully catching a Pokemon that's not part of the chain (e.g., catching a Metapod when you're chaining Caterpie), 2) having any Pokemon (the one you're chaining or otherwise) run away from you, 3) closing the game (putting to sleep doesn't count, but playing another game on the switch will close it).

That's good to know, thank you! Is there any way to get a low level exeggcute? I wanna try using one but serebii says they only show up at like, level 41?

Oh yeah if your Pokemon runs away from you it breaks the chain. 500+ Ponyta in and the one you just encountered breaks out and runs on the first ball? Chain resets, rip

The dude is N, King of Team Plasma. He's basically a fanfic writer's Pokemon OC DO NOT STEAL.

1) So pure of heart he can talk to Pokemon and understand them
2) In charge of the evil team without actually being aware they're evil
3) Tragic backstory with an abusive father figure
4) The ~destined partner~ of a Legendary Dragon

also his real name is loving Natural Harmonia Gropius lmao

The woman is Elesa, Electric gym leader who's also a fashion model. She had two really boring gyms and had some annoying Emolga. Also did gently caress all in Gen V despite most gym leaders actually getting to do poo poo.

Exploration is ill-advised.
N is also a complete weirdo with no social skills who was raised solely around abused Pokemon and has the bedroom of a young (very wealthy) child.

Huh, Natural Harmonia Gropius was my nickname in college before I got expelled.

N is cool enough, good for him and he has my thanks for the nearly-perfect IV Pokemon. That I never leveled up or used. Hope I marked them in some way.

Elesa is cute, but she's no Flannery. drat idols. I demand a recount!

Here is my list of not-Pikachu names.

Pichu and Raichu get to use their own names as they are acceptable.
Marill and Azumarill are Pikablu and Raiblu.
Plusle is Pikaplu and Minun is Pikablutwo.
Pachirisu is Pikachew.
Emolga is Pikaflew.
Dedenne is Pikaparlezvousfrancais.
Mimikyu is Pikaboo! Togedemaru is - wait, who is Togedemaru again? He sounds fake. I don't think he's a real Pokemon. Okay, he can be Spikachu. NO NO NO it's not racist, it's pronounced like SPIKE because he's spiky!
