Quick question: How does the normal gem interact with move type-changing abilities? If I give one to, say, Sylveon and pick a Normal attack, will it get boosted before turning it into Fairy?

If I restart my AS game, can i claim the arceus again?

Not Arceus, since it came from a one-use code, BUT Internet gift mons can be re-downloaded into new saves. Maybe wait a few more days and claim two Victinis? :v:

They should've used the flying models ONLY for Sky Battles, and the Pokemon Amie standing models for regular battles.
Except for Archeops, he should keep on flapping.

I have a personal beef with Milotic, mostly because it being straight up "the Most Beautiful Pokemon (TM)" is sort of a rude way of getting people to like it?? Especially since I find it kind of whatever a design.

It's basically my equivalent of how many people dislike Lucario and/or Greninja for being Too Special, except way more of a minor deal.

Burmys don't appear in ORAS, so maybe that's just people trying to complete their Dexes.

How do Deerling/Sawbuck colors work outside Gen5? If I send an Autumn coated one to a Gen6 game, will it also change its color once winter starts?

Also, I'm currently replaying Black2 trying to use monsters I hadn't used before and... is Woobat supposed to be this lovely? Poor idiot dies just by getting looked at. Tried slapping a Soothe bell in order to evolve it ASAP, but it has a hard time just metabolizing for five straight minutes. :(

well I have like 20 spare legendaries so probably not easier, and then I would also need a new spritzee. it is funny though people don't even ask for bottom-tier legendaries like the lake fairies or dogs it's all box legendaries or MAYBE the legendary birds

It's super easy: Once you get your Aromatissue back, just stick it in the Daycare with a ditto and bam, instant* Spritzee.

Maybe they'll pull an Aqua/Magma and each version will feature one team as villians and the other one as support. After all, twelve hours is more than enough time to go heel.

Also looking forward to Sun2Moon2, taking place 24 hours after the events of SunMoon.

Ultra Beasts don't seem to be Pokemon at all considering how the official website classifies them. They might just be boss only characters.

Lysandre was the first Ultra Beast.

Night Dog gets Counter and Day Dog gets a new move called Accel Rock.

This also seems to suggest they're version exclusives, though it doesn't explicitly state it.

So what I'm getting from this is that the games have an inverted R/S thing going.

In Sun, Skull are the villains, Expansion is the second Ultra Beast you encounter when it attacks and kidnaps Tapu Koko for Skull to make a fortune selling.

In Moon, Aether are the villains, Beauty is the second Ultra Beast you encounter when it attacks and kidnaps Tapu Koko for Aether to keep and "protect."

On one hand, I get to be pals with my boy Guzma.
On the other, I get the crappier dog.

I was thinking about that poll that said that the fire monkey was the least popular Pokeman ever.
There's no way more people think the Gen 3 lighting bugs are better than that monkey, even if it literally has a poop-shaped head. Is it because of his :gay:-reminiscent hand gestures?

Also Diggersby is cool because he helped fulfill my childhood dream of battling alongside Homer Simpson.
