Hello, I got Violet from the library and caught all the Pokemon before the Great Crater acted like Season 8 of Game of Thrones and retroactively disenchanted me from the game.


Whenever I last paid attention, there was some kind of well regarded fan Pokemon game people were talking about, I think. Does that still exist?

Pink Tina, my Tinkaton, was my mvp for sure.

The tea cup ghost has good spA and decent speed

Pawmi nuzzled Pokemon for me through the end of the game

Ninja bug is pretty cool. Lokix? Something like that.


Real talk I couldn't resist Spore Breloom and Talonflame. They're just so useful!

Is there any point playing Shining Diamond if I've got a copy of platinum lying around I've yet to get to? Assuming that internet is not a thing I have access to for trading.

Man, Old Gateau is such a pro tier translation. Iirc, a goon was the main translator at that time.

So one of the things that weirds me out about PL:A is the complete lack of abilities. I mean, being able to knock out geodudes in one hit, and not getting effect spored are nice, but it feels off.

There are way too many shock lions and cordyceps nightmare bugs. They're like Zubat and tentacool for this game.

So far I've got full odds, no outbreak, shinies of Geodude, Onix, and Gligar.

I wonder if the game is trying to tell me something.

First two episodes aired today. In the final weeks of the previous season, they had a pokemon from paldea show up in a minute long skit at the end, but for some odd reason they didn't credit Sprigatito but did every other pokemon. Turns out that's because Sprigatito is voiced by Jessie's VA.

After saying goodbye to the old cast, Pikachu and Jessie still stay in main roles lmao.

Didn't know about this thing so I looked it up.

Why did they change mareep's cry to sound like "Daddy"?

This is actually so beautiful it makes me angry and I can't fully grasp why.

Is it because Gamefreak doesn't treat these games as the AAA titles they are and just shoves them out the door with bugs and lag and lazy graphics?

Do Alpha Pokemon have moves that they ordinarily can't get, or could they be applied some other way?

Six I think? Counting the shinies anyway.

Well I was trying to convey what I was thinking at the time, which was boredom/mild frustration.

Then some YouTube pops up saying it's one of the rarer shinies.

Edit: all my shinies are original odds

I've always wanted to use a mew as a starter, but no way am I paying money to migrate all the DS pokes. They can stay safe and sound in Moon.

Some of them are from Emerald/FR/LG.

I somehow always end up with a team that's weak to electric :v: I just can't seem to find any good ground/rock types I like. Gigalith was a workhorse of my Gen V team, but that dude died to a wet rag and most of his use was "send out the Sturdy one, giving me a chance to revive 2". Really should play more with Pooper. Little dude completely no-sold Ionos gym, but alas I benched him afterward.

Grass resists electric too.

The last few gens I haven't been looking at Serebii and I've ended up Fighting type heavy...my least favorite, but they've been my partners for so long...
