The thing weirder to me is that you can't actually interact with your friends in the overworld beyond sharing a physical space. It'd be nice if you could talk to them to request battles and trades directly, or talk to a raid den they've activated to join the fun, rather than needing to go through a menu prompt. Or if you could spectate trainer / gym leader battles, and join them for Titan fights and Starfall raids.

Well at least we can show off our fashion choices!

The romhack scene for Scarlet and Violet is going to be so good in a decade



I'm half joking but honestly these games, despite their flaws, have made me more excited for the future of Pokémon than any other game. The flesh is rotting in some places but the skeleton has never been better.

Is there a better dedicated capture mon than kricketune? I used one for that all through PLA but whittling everything down with Maushold who knows Thunder Wave is exhausting. The cricket can learn false swipe.

Speaking of, make sure to go back and chat to the teachers and take classes. The biology guy just gave me three false swipes.

My partner really likes Grusha's scarf and I managed to find reasonable color matches from my usual source for yarn. So now I'm working on drafting up a concept pattern to knit it for him. Most difficult part is going to be the Pokeball on the end of it.

You'll probably have better luck crocheting that ball if you know how, and if you don't a sphere is incredibly simple to do.

Here's a pattern for a pokeball:

The twist being Clavell is in fact the actual professor of the game. He's named after a flower and even tells you later on he did work as a Pokemon professor before taking up the mantle of director. His office still has the design and hallmarks of his original lab. Sada/Turo were red herrings from the word go and I kinda love it.

I think the actual actual professor is Mr. Jacq, since that's an actual tree

I wouldn't be surprised if this isn't actually the last season of Ash, and at the end of the Gen 9 season we get a glimpse of old Ash and he says "Hey, did I ever tell you kids about the time I went to [Gen10Region]?"

They'll probably only pull this if the season bombs but if they do it it'll give a good opportunity to reboot him and/or change VAs.

Sorry to report that there's no way I'm gonna be able to bring my boboy Dudunsparce to regionals this weekend. I had no idea it'd be Regulation C and that I'd be going up against the Treasures of Ruin, which kinda counter the gimmicky stored power moveset I was considering.

It's also worth noting that Pokemon B2W2 have a challenge mode, when you get to them.

quote:

In Challenge Mode, opponents use more competent artificial intelligence and the level of opposing Trainers' Pokémon are higher than usual (1 level higher at the start of the game, and rising to 5 levels higher by the end of the game). Gym Leaders and the Elite Four each use one additional Pokémon on their team, as well as their party having different movesets and held items, and their Pokémon's IVs are all set to 30. However, Trainers' Pokémon's stats are still calculated using the levels from Normal Mode (for example, a trainer's Pokémon will appear to be level 63 but still have the stats of a level 59). The raised levels are taken into account for both prize money and experience (the player and their Pokémon will receive more of each).

The way to unlock it is kinda asinine (you have to have someone who's unlocked it transfer the key to your game because starting a new game deletes your key) but if you're emulating I'm sure there are save files with it already unlocked
