    Little things you like about Pokémon

    I'm guessing it was very intentional - guy who's goal was the pokedex now voicing the pokedex in the new series is pretty straight forward. I'd further guess they wanted to have a call back to the previous series and the Pokedex voice just provided a cute way of doing so without committing to...

    Little things you like about Pokémon

    I don't believe he did, it's just a fan theory based on Goh's VO voicing the Horizons Pokedex (not sure if that's kept in the Dub)

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    Probably aimed at helping Groudon its allies since they also get the Attack & Sp Def boost And generally i think raising special defense is never a bad thing to lean in on. Feels like grass types like special defense anyway Honestly I think the misstep was "boosting attack despite higher...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    From running around the region for hundreds of hours, it's really funny the stark contrast in running around the early areas whicha re full of tall grass and tiyn pokemon vs anywhere else which often have less grass and larger pokemon where you generally only run into a Pokemon if it's Tauros...

    If I had a nickle for every time a weird mid-battle form change clashed with battle design, i'd probably have several nickles but it's weird it happened twice in the same generation.

    Pokemon Scarlet & Violet - 18th Nov 2022! **OFFICIAL INFO ONLY**

    Since this is the third time they've done it and they were not made regularly available in the DLC, yeah this seems to be the only way they want to release the pair.

    Pokemon Scarlet & Violet - 18th Nov 2022! **OFFICIAL INFO ONLY**

    Sometimes they offset 7 star raid announcements, I think. So there could still be one to go with it, maybe? Kind of surprised they didn't rerun the Gimmighoul raids , actually.

    Pokemon Scarlet & Violet - 18th Nov 2022! **OFFICIAL INFO ONLY**

    Walking Wake/Iron Leaves will be running again from April 26 to May 6th I wonder if the plan is to just rerun these guys every season or so. That'd be nice considering their weird-ass stance as event only but not banned from competitions

    Sticky Orange Islands SQSA Thread

    I agree that no one will buy the game for a legendary raid & it acts as further incentive for people to play the game, but I disagree on the "anyone can just pay money for a hack" front. I think that the number of people who would do that are very slim and the most average joe guy wouldn't even...

    Sticky Orange Islands SQSA Thread

    I know you're joking but seriously VGC is in 3 months and the last legendary release was 5 months ago for the DLC. There's plenty of import-only legends they could have started peppering in, but we didn't even get something Legendary for Pokemon Day. Which really just killed any hopes of getting...

    Though I think if there's going to be more legendary raids they'll be more in the D/P (& WW/IL) 5 star raid bin than the Mewtwo 7 Star. I also think it wouldn't be to help VGC players

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    To be clear Geeta is canonically above the other champions. She's the current top-ranking Champion of Paldea and the chairwoman of the league likewise. My ELO thing really wasn't a joke. If we could see the leader board she'd be #1 and would retain that position even after losing to us. If it...

    Sticky Orange Islands SQSA Thread

    We have 0 leaks on 7* Raids The only thing we can say with some reasonable certainty is that we'll get a raid for every gen 1-8 starter (& imo probably the gen 9 starters too because why not), just based on them continuing to do those. So based on that the ones left would be Feraligatr...

    SPOILERS! Mysteries and Conspiracies of Pokemon

    Kanto was meant to be part of Japan for a while it just wasn't that strongly made a connection. Gen 2 being set in "the rest" of Japan originally was probably because it was a jrpg sequel. The best way to show it was a bigger world, was by going across the entire continent and reframing the...

    She's considered the Top/First I assume because of her ELO I don't mean that as a joke I mean that since she rose to the rank of champion far fewer people have gotten the rank themselves and it sounds like she routinely enforces that when checking in on the other leaders and E4s and I guess the...
