I think it would've made more sense for the shield to be its chest, then it could hide behind it.

Grooky is the true unsung hero of these starters

I’m of the opinion that all the starters this gen look great, but yeah this

My pal Mike D and I are gonna go through Galar, get a Drednaw named Snapster for our p2p (Pokémon to Pokémon) streaming and bitetorrenting needs, and have a beast of a time.

Also we’ll need a Dynamaxxing Golurk. If Golurk can’t dynamax, it is a trash mechanic.

can Wooloo be my starter instead?

You can probably catch one in the first 30 minutes of the game so do that and then dump your starter in the trash.

I always thought they were saying Nonono. Even listening on YouTube, that's what it still sounds like.

From the looks of it, the ! popping up is itself random, and appears in grass, and you don't know what monster it is until you engage it. So its still a random encounter if that's what you want!

I want to be forced into random encounters. Making myself do it requires a level of self control that takes the fun out of it.

Aren't you just admitting that if given the choice, you will not take a random encounter? How is that not a bad mechanic?

tbh they should just let you toggle between random and overworld encounters, I can't imagine it'd be difficult to implement

I am not an egghead. I am well-read.
I like that the not-UK region appears to be a cooler area, so all the NPCs and trainers and players are dressed in warmer clothing with jackets, leggings, boots and the like. My favorite outfit to wear in Pokemon Y was the black turtleneck sweater from the snowy region, and I think that kind of fashion looks nicer than the various t-shirts and shorts in Alola.

I think that's really weird but more power to you.

I most look forward to just being able to spot and observe who-knows-what Pokemon from a distance like some wannabe nature expert.

I agree. Tees and shorts are fun, but there’s more options with colder weather clothes.

Just please don’t make colors version exclusive again, Game Freak. :(

Unless it lets you link multiple profiles on the same console to the same Nintendo account, you wouldn't be able to send the Pokémon from your secondary saves to your Pokémon Home bank, and I assume most people who want multiple saves will also want to keep their Pokémon when they're done.
