One day I'll update the actual trading thread (Or make a new one) but until then, babes, new version of my legacy transfer chart is up:




Pokemon Trade Thread: All Dogs go to Home.

So most/everything from SwSh can go into SV via Home right? If so I might have to use it, briefly, to grab stuff like my perfect IV german Ditto I got from farming raids and swapping mons with foreign goons long ago.

XCX is also, notably, not on the switch! :eng101:
also from what I heard it runs terribly unless you specifically download the entire game onto the wii u's HDD

also you can't put stuff into SV yet, they don't add home support for new games until a couple months down the line.

:(:hf::(

I'm in the same 'get the dumb red lizard to make my dumb spouse happy with the purple one' boat.

As for graphical glitches, I'm normally not one to complain about that sort of thing. I figure I grew up on the Gameboy and NES, graphics don't matter as long as the game is fun! But man SV is really pushing it at times. I played for about an hour but the stutter whenever I turn the camera too fast (which is apparently all the time) actually gives me a headache. I can ignore the pop in and the jank-rear end shadows, but I've never got a headache from bad graphics before.

We're always hiring!

So if I'm looking at this correctly, Snorlax is unobtainable, like it can't even be transferred over through Pokemon Home?
gently caress that poo poo, if that's true then call me when they inevitably release a DLC that makes him available.

I knew SV were going to be unpolished and janky, but I'm surprised and dismayed at how severe their technical problems are. The pop-in, lagging, etc., hugely detracts from the experience, and I've never felt so unenthusiastic towards the beginning of a core Pokémon game. Past generations had their own irritating problems, but I'd always been able to dig in on launch day and have some real fun.

Immensely disappointed at the lack of clothing options in the game. Seeing the new options available was always a highlight of getting to a new city in the previous few gen games. Doesn't help that the default outfits are all mega ugly.

It’s definitely playable but performance is very bad and very prevalent.

I seem to have avoided the worst of the problems people have had so far. I've played for a couple of hours or so and caught like thirty Pokemon and it's mostly just been a fair bit of slowdown and some really bad framerates on characters in the distance with the camera clipping into the ground once or twice while battling on a slope.

I haven't actually entered the school area yet or started the main quests or anything though so there's plenty of time for things to fall apart!

It's about time.
It's potentially caused by a memory leak and rebooting the game once in a while might help some.

I like the idea of this as a secret speedrun trick to get across big gaps or ledges you're not meant to cross. Would it ever be useful? Who knows

probably not, the level 30 stuff doesn't obey you even though you're the one that caught it.

e: seriously, this is making sword and shield look put together well. The camera keeps clipping through walls and poo poo.

I think it's funny I'm likely to complain the most about this poo poo but I'm also the same kind of person to just be like 'lol, lmao' when tech problems happen as long as I'm enjoying myself. Curious if it'll break me.

Also why the hell is Route 1 littered with every dumb baby in the franchise my god pichu azurill, igglybuff etc they're all just here!! I can't raise friendship that fast!! Route 1 is literally the land of Little Guys!!
