BW2 having you go backwards means you don’t reach it until after post game. I have a vague memory of another day care also being early but only letting you drop off one mon before some arbitrary point, but can’t find evidence of that so might be misremembering.

You're thinking of FRLG. Your first Daycare is the one from Gen 1 so it can't take more than one Pokémon, you get a proper Daycare much later, in the Sevii Islands.

Are you truly playing Pokémon if you don't name every single one of them Dongs?

I name them all whatever celebrity comes to mind first

For instance I named a Beedrill in XY Aziz Ansari because if all the zzz sounds and bees buzzing. This was before he was a sex pest mind you.

I like to go with a theme for my first time through a game. Otherwise I'll just name them the first thing that comes to mind.

For my first gen 8 run I'm naming them all after JoJo's Characters.

I usually just give mine names with origins from the region they are from. For Galar it’s gonna be like Aldrich, Cromwell, Ida etc.

Make it a Nuzlocke and live up to their namesakes.

Needless to say, the only JoJo you get to use is Jonathan.

I got this for a Ratatta on GTS.


Cool its a Shield exclusive and I was planning on getting that game anyway. I am a bit disappointed that its a pure Fairy type and not something like Fire/Fairy. Maybe Galarian Rapidash will fix that.

G-Ponyta has the abilities Run Away (lol) or something called Pastel Veil which makes it immune to poison status and heals poisoned allies.

The second one is prob a nod to how historically(?) unicorn horns were considered a sort of panacea.

Galarian Ponyta's species name is the Unique Horn Pokémon (as opposed to Fire Horse like Kantonian Ponyta).
