I was gonna go with Moon, since nocturnal creatures are my jam. Owls, bats, cats and other creatures of the night. Though I prefer DayWolf and definitely want one on my team. I may just have to find a friend with Sun and get them to evolve my Rockruffs in their game and trade it back.

Silver Falcon posted:There were, what, 150ish Pokemon introduced in Gen V? With some of the strongest and best designs ever? Agreed. Gen 5 is overall, the strongest gen in the series. It's impossible to make a Pokemon game with 100% great designs, because a lot of it comes down to taste. You might not like Trubbish, but someone else finds it charming. It's okay to not love every single design because they weren't all designed for you. However, if you can't find it in your heart to love: Chandelure Cincinno Whimsicott Lilligant Scolipede Leavanny Golurk Hydreigon Volcarona Reuniclus Braviary Cofagrigus Eelektross Then you're really missing out.

Phanpy is so cute that I had a hard time fighting them in Firered. I ended up raising one to level 100, just to be a cute friend with Pickup. Also Pumpkaboo, Joltik, Duskull, Phantump, Goomy, Dratini.

The friends of the BW protagonist have grown up and gotten jobs. One of them even became a gym leader. The starting town is even a new town on the other side of the map. We need more sequels like that.

Lupus Rufus posted:where's the problem? Agreed. A dress having pockets is what will make me buy a dress. The idea behind why women's pants don't have pockets is that we would look all lumpy if we actually put stuff in them, so it's best that the pockets are decorative only, according to the fashion industry. I just tend to hear a lot of sweaters with pockets. My 3DS usually lives in my purse or messenger bag.

TriffTshngo posted:I've never really understood the Gen 5 love. Black just did not click with me, and it's what made me hesitant on playing each new game simply on the merits of me liking Pokemon. If XY and Sun/Moon didn't impress me with cool new (admittedly gimmicky) stuff like the move to 3D, Mega Evolutions, and Alola Forms I probably would've passed like I did with BW2 and ORAS. Dr. Fetus posted:Yeah, the new stuff only restriction was dumb. I dunno why people liked being locked out of using their old mons, especially when the Unova dex was filled with a bunch of stinkers. Unfortunately, you really did miss out with B2W2 since it had a bunch of the old Pokemon in it. What universe are you guys from where 5th gen was full of bad Pokemon? 5th generation was one of the best Pokemon generations.

LOCUST FART HELL posted:hey thread what in your opinion is the weirdest change a pokemon undergoes when evolving? while there's some that drastically change (magikarp > gyarados, trapinch > vibrava etc.) there are at least thematic reasons behind them. but then there's stuff like shroomish > breloom, and aside from retaining the mushroom theme, i don't see how they're connected at all. why would this random mushroom turn into a boxing kangaroo?? Remoraid into Octillery, a fish into an octopus.

Took a heal ball and 4 great balls to catch with it calling for help several times. Though her move pool isn't so great right now, since she doesn't know an electric move and I already have 2 other birds. I put Pricilla the Oricorio in the box for now. Also, oh my goodness, Fomantis sounds like a little squeaky toy. It's so adorable. I caught one to take through the water trial and named her Orchid.

I keep seeing Stuffuls that belong to other people, but have never been able to find one in the wild! I gave up trying to find one on route 8. Is it only in a certain patch of grass? My team is pretty great as is, but I do need a Stufful. I ran across a lady with 8 of them! Why can't I just have one of hers?

Cicadas! posted:Are SOS calls disproportionately skewed to being male or something because I just spent half a loving hour chaining the same salandit (which is a huge pain, thanks dragon rage) and not a single replacement was female, and the last replacement after the original struggled itself to death didn't feel like calling for help anymore in 10+ turns so I just knocked it out. Is this just poo poo luck or is it coded to only spit out dudes in SOS battles? On my very first Salandit encounter, it called for help and the help was female. It took a little while, but I had to catch her. She was also Timid. Named her Salandra.

Certain areas needed for progression are literally gated off until the trial is complete. quote:Q2) I haven't played one since Ruby / Sapphire but was told today that if you battle each-other, all your Pokemon are set to the same level. I can't think why they would introduce that as a game mechanic, that seems mental. Please tell me I am smelling sweet bullshit. Why is that bad? Not needing to manually level your pokemon to the same level is great. It gives everyone an equal playing field.
