The developers had to decide between keeping background music or Mega Evolutions, and they chose the latter.

I know there are tons of fake / knockoff copies of the GBA Pokemon games out there, but what about the DS ones? Black / White specifically - is it generally safe to buy a copy off eBay?

I'm currently replaying Heart Gold and man, Jasmine's Steelix gave more trouble than I expected. My team wasn't exactly well-equipped to handle it (Quilava, Victreebel, Togetic, Scyther, all at level 30) - Quilava's Flame Wheel was my only means of super effective damage and it didn't really do a whole lot of damage either due to Steelix' defense. I eventually beat it after lowering its attack with Togetic's Charm and then whittling it down with Victreebel's Vine Whip and Wrap.

Would've loved to have a Vaporeon already, but the drat Pokethlon isn't selling Water Stones till Wednesday :argh:

UB-01’s body is composed of a glass-like substance. However, it’s constantly changing shapes, never settling on one.

While evidence of something like a survival instinct can be observed in UB-01, no one knows whether it has a will of its own or any emotions. It’s said that, for some reason, its movements resemble those of a young girl.

Lillie is an Ultra Beast confirmed.

Last I saw, there's a fifth slot for moves, I think?

Alternatively it's great for coverage. Give something like Flareon Solar Be-oh.

Give something like Breloom Rock Tomb and when he needs to destroy a Fire type he's got the Rock Z move on deck.

Yeah, but you still have to have Giga Impact as one of Snorlax four moves if you want to use its Z-Move, which is not necessarily something you want.

Interestingly, CoroCoro doesn't reveal the type of Rockruff's evo. Nothing about it makes it seem like a Rock type, but then again Rockruff doesn't exactly look like a typical Rock type either.

We don't know for sure yet, but they're apparently (permanent) forms of the same Pokemon. They do have the same name.

I loved Dayowulf (© oddium) from the start and Nightwolf (© Mortal Kombat) has grown on me on record time. I hope they are both fast (they look like they will be) because we need more fast Rock-types, and have good abilities.

Rockruff has Keen Eye and Vital Spirit, so uh..it can only get better.
