You were using a stall team and got rid of your Gliscor counter. Voted 1, reported for timer stall and getting sooo lucky.

I've played around with several of the cloning glitches and it's actually easier to get the timing right thanks to just being able to tap the touchscreen and then hit resume if you undershoot it.
Can you run through the bad clone process and reset timing for Gold/Silver on VC? I've been trying to figure out the timing to reset, prepping the boxes as per Glitch City, and it still does not seem to work.

It's true, I figured it out mid match. Reverend had to lure the opponent into thinking they won so they'd throw super hard.

How does Avalugg use Recover anyway? Like I get how pokemon like Starmie and Toxapex recover because Starfish are really good at regenerating irl, and Alakazam can do it because he's got a giant Anime brain, but how does Avalugg do it?

Does he like, quickly glue the ice bits he loses after he gets punched back on?

He immediately congeals extra ice mass out of atmospheric water. Like the ice guy in Xmen who grows back after being dismembered or something.

I haven't watched Xmen in a long time, shut up

I got this for a Ratatta on GTS.


Who gets or doesn't get certain moves is completely arbitrary. Why does Sableye get Recover? Why does Aurorus get Electric moves but not Power Gem or Aurora Veil? Why doesn't Dedenne get Dazzling Gleam or any Fairy attack that isn't the physical Play Rough?

Let’s be honest, Dedenne’s Fairy typing was just tacked on because of the gen it was introduced in.

The pokedex entry says it looks like an aircraft carrier made of ice, which is a reference to Project Habakkuk (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Habakkuk). One of the advantages of the ice carrier is that it would have theoretically been easy to repair with water and wood pulp. So Avalugg is just patching up holes on itself.

(It's probably just an arbitrary move that they gave it, but it'd be cool if that was the reason)

It's better then another not-pikachu mono electric.

It's basically the not-pikachu or pikachu related thing tradition to be related to a gimmick of the gen. Pichu = breeding/baby pokemon, Plusie/Minium = Doubles, and Alola Raichu, well, alola formes.


Not surprised at all, but a little bummed Gen 7 won't get any remake games. Hope they go all out with the post game legendary availability in USUM and even throw in a mythical or two like they did in ORAS.

I'll bet we don't see the Gen IV remakes until Gen VIII. Gen VII is shaping up to be a lot like Gen V all over again with the two sequels, and it looks like they're establishing a pattern of 4 games per generation.

I'd be curious if there was ever a plan to do Gen 4 remakes with gen 4 being playable on a 3DS. With the Switch being new hardware and a new start I wouldn't really be surprised if Gen 8 attempts to do some sort of Gen 1 remake/remix or takes place in Kanto.

Nice work! I would have accepted some art of the GIS, so this is well above and beyond.
The dude at target gave me a fistful today when I asked for just one for Nethilia, so I have 6 more to give away. Post a pic (no need for it to be an original, Nethilia set that bar pretty high) of Mimikyu dressed as someone else to get one.

Bumping this. Still have six codes to sell for the low low price of Mimikyu lookin' like someone else.

Although since I don't have plat I'd just be posting the codes straight in here under a spoiler.
