The Ultra Beasts rule so hard. In fact all the legendaries this gen are great. The Tapu's are easily my favourite region trio (even though there's 4 of them) in the series, and Solgaleo and Lunala are cool as well.

Ultra beasts are amazing and I love the tapus, I unabashedly baby my Tapu Koko because I love my capricious lil' chicken god. I hope there's more ghost fighting types next gen, Marshadow is precious and has excellent stats but it leans more towards adorable than spoopy. And I need more spoops.

Nah, those are pretty cool. Kinda out of place in Pokémon but I still love both of those! All the "legendaries" are great in this game, which is a breath of fresh air. I was more talking about the style going from a very recognizable "this is Pokémon" to something looking more like Sonic the Hedgehog or Digimon. There are some great Pokémon in every gen, but I just wasn't digging the direction they were heading in. SuMo is back to being kinda quirky and cute and I love it

I like this gen's legendaries/whatever the UBs are, but I usually don't like ever using them because it feels like I'm using a crutch in my teams.

Like I said the UBs feel distinctly out of place, which is definitely on purpose. I like their designs, but they're kind of "outside" the general style the game is going for (again, on purpose) also they're 1000x better than any Digimon designs.

This generation did a good job making me care more about the legendaries than I really have since I played Sapphire. Other people in the game knowing about and caring about the Tapus was refreshing, though it did make me feel kind of bad that I was taking their island gods away to go fight dogs in the woods. Contrast with X and Y, where I didn't give a single gently caress about Yveltal and neither did anyone else. It was also filled with pokemon I can barely recall (anybody else remember Barbaracle? What was that guy's deal?)

I think they're getting better at making us give a poo poo about the legendaries and incorporating them into the plot. That said I loved 90% of gen 6 designs including Barbaracle. A barnacle hive mind with an awesome ability? gently caress yeah. Gen's 3, 6, and 7 have had my favorite designs so far.

What a waste. I hadn't heard about this and looked it up it's p. adorable, but also has technician and I dunno I'm no master battler but its move pool looks good for both singles and doubles and using technician and it's signature move is sweet as heck ps gen 5 best gen

Whoever is drawing this has the Pokémon style down to a science, and now I'm sad that it's not official  Also how has this thing not been shut down by Nintendo?

One hatched after two days but three are still just close to hatching for me, this was with no berries. Much faster to run circles on tairos imo.

Completed the dex! Took me about 3 days of GTS'ing castforms to get everything. The pokemon I had most trouble getting were the Porygon Evolutions and Weavile. loving nobody was taking the castform bait with those and when they did it took hours.
