I absolutely love Togekiss, my big fluffy marshmallow dragon slayer, but Togepi is loving adorable.

Thankfully I'm not a completionist or a competitive battler so I can deal with not having every Pokemon available. I'm happy to play through the game once with what's available and call it a day.

That said if Breloom isn't available in Galar, I will burn Kyoto to the ground.

There are a lot of second forms that look bad followed by third forms that look rad, although I don't know if that counts for this

I personally never evolve an Oddish unless it's a high enough level or I have a sun stone, so opine away.

Edit: rad isn't the same as cute, though

Yeah I was about to say "every starter Pokemons second->third evolution"

While evolving to get cuter is uncommon normally, it appears that no mega evolution makes any Pokemon cuter.

Don't look at me!




People are losing their minds over speculation and are getting very angry at people who aren't as up in arms about it as they are. Every time gamers get in an uproar about a situation and try to Gamexplain it through the little info they have, we ignore them. Pokémon isn't special.

We don't have details, and they will probably clarify as we get closer to launch. I hope they will make a decision that makes everyone happy, but Game Freak and Nintendo are the most incompetent companies in existence and constantly stumble into their undeserved success or whatever, so they won't. Come to terms with that now.

Actual lmao that a game series specifically about having a thousand of these little fuckers, collecting (th)'em all, and everyone having a weird favorite nobody else ever uses, is not going to have the entire roster.

I mean I'll only care if my enigmatic child Sigilyph is absent but they wouldn't leave out the best mon so :v:

Not to mention that this is both the new generation of games AND the first title not in the Gameboy/DS and now has the extra juice of a (still portable) home console and instead of making this gen the foundation of all pokemon games moving forward they’re using this moment to make a fundamental shift at the design level and turning each pokemon game into a specifically tailored garden where you can no longer take your entire collection with you.

I keep beating on this dead horse but until the details of how Home works and how many pokemon are going to be in the Galar dex are released he shouldn't of dropped this particular nugget then walked away. It was poor loving planning on Masuda's part.

The awe of Dynamax kinda falls flat when you can render them utterly impotent via Statuses and Screen moves

Galarians must be some incredibly weak-willed chumps if they never thought to send out a group of ten-year olds to solve the pandemic - especially since it only takes ten minutes to tame a Dynamax pokemon...

Uh except that Steelix still took off like a third of the health of a Ludicolo with a Rock move even with Reflect wile burned.
