Lots of Goomy in the OP. I approve.

fake edit: holy poo poo, Pinsir gets a Mega-evo? When did that get discovered? What does he look like? And Heracross too! Nice to see Tyranitar got confirmed as well.

Roller Skates rule. I don't know what black magic trainers use to skate up and down stairs, but that's great too.

First area with trainers is a forest of bug catchers and Pikachu is a rare encounter? Pow, right in the nostalgia.

Also this game is so pretty. :swoon: Fairy type is going to trip me up a lot for a while, I think. Well, got that adorable flower critter on the team, that helps. And of course the second I reached the first proper town I went and bought a hat. I'm a sucker for that kind of customisation.

Wonder Trade is excellent. Nothing amazing turned up so far, but it's just fun being able to chuck something on and grab something random.

e: EXCEPT FOR CATERPIE, WHY WOULD I WANT TO TRADE A CATERPIE FOR A CATERPIE? gently caress OFF, CATERPIE!

Right, looks like I got past the Everything Uses Tackle Or Scratch phase. Time to put the battle animations back on.

Well, decided I couldn't wait any more. Grabbed a Goomy off the GTS, bred it to the Bagon I caught yesterday, and soon I'll have a lovely squishy dragon of my very own.

Oops. Just got Fly, went back to check out older places for HM shenanigans. Discovered Route 22. Sorry, lovely trainers. I'm going to have to crush you all with Goomy.

Goomy still rules. I love it when the battle camera does a dramatic zoom in on his goofy face. :kimchi:

McDragon
Sep 11, 2007

This game throws so many of the three stage dragon types at you. Think it's only Deino and Dratini who haven't popped up yet.

Also I fought a Shellder and it looked spectacular. See, even the older Pokemon are fun to discover now they've all been graphically overhauled. And Psyduck's new cry rules as well.

Finally, don't touch a Goomy's cheeks. They don't like it. :(

Ha, was part way through the ice dungeon when I decided to do Pokemon Amie for a bit. Got carried away and blew the battery away. It's that drat yarn heading game. It's adorable and the music is ridiculously catchy, especially in fever mode.

Also if you touch Goodra's slimes your hand gets all gooey. :3: Best dragon.

Was pretty lucky with the evolution too. Started raining just as he hit level 49, evolved soon after.

Pokedex entry is one of the sad ones. Something like they die if they stop bouncing. :(

I see it's not possible to give Encounter Power to people. I can guess why. But drat that would be funny to inflict on random people.

Oh, I just did that bit. :(

Still, it cheered me up that I could get a photograph standing in front of the "Ultimate Weapon", looking bored.

Yveltal's signature attack rules. A big gently caress-off laser? Yes please. Seems odd it isn't Dark to take advantage of the Ability though.

999 heading points, motherfuckers! :hellyeah:

Also I sent out a couple of Haunters on Wondertrade. Hopefully that gets them to evolve too, because I was hoping to send some Gengarbuddies round the world.

Neddy Seagoon posted:

I'm still raising my Blastoise's affection up, but got a chuckle from opening up Pokemon-Amie to find him leaning in from the side of the screen close-up in a goofy little "Hello!" way.

Aww, mine did that today as well. :3:

I have to ask, am I the only one who really finds the gym leader music awful?

I really like it in this one. I liked the B/W one as well, apart from the last pokemon bit. That bit is alright, but just not as good as the other for me.

Um, I thought Noibat was supposed to be Victory Road only? One just jumped me in Terminus Cave.

There's a few that do it in two. Lapras and Tyrantrum are the only two I've found so far though.

Lumios city is the absolute worst. The camera angles and character movement make it a pure frustration to navigate. Also there needs to be a way to check your current objective. I think the professor wanted me to meet him at a cafe or something but I can't remember and I can't find him anywhere.

It's the red cafe you want. If you fly to the centre Pokemon Center, you should be able to see it?

By the looks of things, hopefully most of the different forms for Pokemon are ready to go once the Bank is up. So far I've found the Griseous Orb, a lady talking about Gracideas, some guy asking about Genesect, someone talking about Kyurem, a move tutor for Keldeo and Meloetta, and someone talking about the Reveal Glass.

And of course, the meteors. There's five of them. I hope this means what it suggests to me.

Finally, found another Old Amber to replace the Aerodactyl I traded much earlier on. Was worth it for early Goomy though. :3:

For what it's worth, I've been breeding goomy with a seviper and all the babies have turned up with poison tail, so there's an egg move for you that helps against fairies.

My Goodra has Sludge Bomb just for dealing with fairies. Can't remember where I found the TM though.

edit: make that two Ambers.
