Dratini was the most annoying by far because water outbreaks are truly the dog’s dinner

Sandwiches are only good if you want a particular type and there's no outbreak for it, but otherwise yeah, just buy the blueberry meal and fly off to wherever.

If you’re hunting for marked shinies just make a sparkling/title/humungo or teensy 3 tho herbas are easy to get

humongo shiny sandwich hunting is the best as it helps make it easier to visually see the shinies and having big friends rule (I miss you alpha pokemon why did they shrink them in this game)

At 60+ Pokemon defeated/captured in an Outbreak the shiny chance is 1/819 with Shiny charm, with Shiny power level 1 it's 1/683, and with Shiny power level 3 it's 1/512. So a level 3 shiny sandwich is definitely a time saver but not strictly necessary if you're low on Herba mystica/BP. Note for Outbreaks since you don't need Encounter power you can pair it with Humungo/Tiny power instead and Humungo can help with the shiny hunt itself for smaller Pokemon

The universe probably felt bad about me losing that shiny Mareep yesterday since it decided to give me a shiny Hoppip today. I have way too many of these things, maybe I should evolve one of them.

Started watching Pokémon Concierge but had to turn it off because the dialogue is just awful. It feels like I'm watching a Nintendo Direct.

Did you try it in Japanese with subtitles? Or were you watching the dub?

How is the English dub for that matter? I watched via the former option my first time through (also the Japanese version has Ai Fairouz)

English dub was good to me. Im sorry

To be fair, most of the dubs for the various shorts have been pretty good in my opinion (I think it’s because they’re usually handled by a different studio than the main anime, though I’ve heard good things about the Horizons dub as well)

After buying all of Atticus' auctions (worth it for the emote) I decided to go and finally buy every clothing piece in Paldea so I can fashion out now that we have actual good main clothes thanks to the DLC. And. Um. I might need to print more items. jesus every shop has 40+ articles and I'm still halfway through Levincia and missing Cascarrafa and Kitakami.

Yeah, Nanigans, I didn’t say before but I loved your post!! And GRFS be careful, apparently if you buy all the clothes it takes like full minutes to load your outfits menu lol. you’re probably better off just using the different stores like a showroom and only picking up exactly what you want

Though now I just realized I didn’t take any pictures of the mascot Snorlax statue at the last Tokyo center. They also had a cool visual timeline of the mainline games with shots of the cutscenes and stuff. Not a great popsocket, but I did turn it into a great fridge magnet! 🧲 🌶️ The Pikachu Sweets shop was fun and the drinks were surprisingly yummy. Some real mango in my wife’s smoothie. Other than Christmas stuff, a lot of the current merch was themed around Maushold and the Paldean trainers. So of course I had to buy some merch of the best trainer in the series. More of the cool murals and statues at the Mega Pokémon Center This wasn’t at a Pokémon Center, but I did find and buy an original Japanese copy of Red Version as a souvenir.

yeah I keep an eye (in a sort of half-assed way) on what new merch serieseses the JP Pokémon Centers are doing so I knew about the Maushold stuff but the Paldean trainer stuff must be even newer because I missed that!Jay Rust posted:Would you ever eat something a pichu cooked? my understanding is this is what Café Remix is about.

My 5yo discovered Pokemon megablocks (legos) last year and asked for/received a bunch for Christmas from the relatives. We arranged them into a little display earlier today and it made me realize how lucky I was to not discover pokemon merch before, because I am already wanting to buy Everything. I want 1,025 little plastic figurines like old ladies have those porcelain angels.

I'm just glad they didn't gut the soundtrack in favor of awful generic music like the anime's dub.

Pokémon Concierge might as well be pantomime as far as I’m concerned. The story is very straightforward and doesn’t really require understanding the humans’ dialogue. It’s about the vibes as the kids say. Not saying you’re wrong to criticize the script, but maybe try it again with the subs off altogether.

It all felt like a pilot/1st episode sort of thing. The first 2 introducing all the important characters, and then the final 2 being what she does in her day-to-day job.

If anyone’s caught any of it yet (I think it started airing in the UK not too long ago at least), are they still messing with the music in the Horizons dub out of curiosity or did that finally stop late into Ash’s run?

Larryb posted:How’s the voicework/translation quality in the Horizons dub though? I don't know much about translation itself, but I think the voicework for the English dub that I've heard so far is fantastic for the most part. Although I'm not sure if I'm ready to hear Matt Mercer in this body of work.

What are some typing/ability/moves changes you guys would make? Here’s some of mine: Typing: - Veevees now retain the Normal typing after evolving; Jolteon would be Electric/Normal, Espeon Psychic/Normal, Sylveon Fairy/Normal, and so on - Samurott gains the Fighting type on evolution Ability: - Normalize now turns all attacks AGAINST a Pokemon with this ability into Normal type attacks, rather than turning all attacks it uses Normal - Sharpness now affects Fury Swipes - Flash Fire now raises the Pokémon’s highest attacking stat one level higher when activated - Swellow’s Hidden Ability is changed to Aerialate - Battle Bond once again transforms the user into Ash Greninja, god dammit Moves: - Bitter Blade is given to Gallade and Aegislash - Psyblade is given to Gallade - Mighty Cleave is given to Kleavor - Tachyon Cutter is given to Dialga - Both forms of Samurott receive Kowtow Cleave - Meloetta gets Quiver Dance - Fiery Dance is given to Charizard, Moltres, Meloetta, and Slither Wing, and its 50 % chance of raising special attack is now 100 %
