I mostly fell off playing Pokemon after Gold and Silver, playing a couple of the next games but not being able to get into them. This one rules though because I can just run around throwing stuff around

Grace on the other hand, has played like all of them and kept a "living pokedex" or something I forget it sounded weird though and he's a big nerd

Grace has beat this one, but I've only gotten up to the third area so I'm still fairly blind. Don't spoil anything even behind spoiler tags because I can't resist looking at them.

I should mention that Arceus really doesn't sound the way you think it does, he shows up in one of the Pokemon films and has a hilariously whiny voice.

Since you asked for it, here's a big ol' spoiler: Stufful is cute. and also in this game you catch pokemon.

This game was honestly the best pokemon experience I've had in a long time. Hope you enjoy.

I've been on a Pokemon kick since the wave of bad fangame LPs, but that never extended to getting back into the games. Maybe I'll get into Violet soon.

Pokemon Legends Arceus is great because you can harass the local wildlife by tossing spoiled food/mud/snowballs at them and then get murdered by a giant beaver.

Finally, a realistic depiction of what would happen if a small child would be running around alone in nature!

That's honestly how my playthroughs usually wind up, case in point here's a screenshot from my Scarlet playthrough

If you love the Eevee that's fine, it's a free country, I'm just saying that they don't have a place on my team, I walk with a team of champions, not mascots,

Tsareena is my favourite Pokemon, by the by.

Luckily, I *did* save your old avatar. Fucked around and found out indeed.
In any game where it's a thing I spend way too much time breeding for a shiny eevee to turn into an espeon, because it looks like a FF carbuncle :3:

Look, Espeon is my #1 favorite Pokemon.

Shiny Espeon is a crime.

Imagine breeding a shiny Eevee and not evolving it into Umbreon or Sylveon...

Super weird that she only had the glaceon with her. For me every battle against her had at least one rando eevee tagging along, too.

posting in the thread, as tacitly requested. I'm enjoying this LP, thank you.

Other than Let's Go, I haven't played any Pokemon games since emerald/sapphire. It's very cool to see them finally come out with the open(ish) world 3D Pokemon game that I've wanted ever since playing Pokemon Snap like 20+ years ago. I'm not a huge fan of the XP for catching Pokemon thing, but it seems better balanced with battling and stuff than it was in Let's Go.
