    Pokémon TCG Pocket

    NGL, this post is venting and hoping anyone who hasn't installed this game takes it as a warning to not get into it. Just uninstalled the game after losing to a new meta deck because coin flips stopped me from doing anything the entire game. Am I overreacting? I'm pretty sure rage uninstalling...

    Pokémon Champions - releasing April 8, 2026

    I can't say IVs being removed is a bad thing overall because of anything less that 31 sucking in most cases, but this also really sucks for Trick Room and niche situations where micromanaging stat is useful. Double RIP to Stakataka for losing Gyro Ball and Attack buffing Beast Boost with a 15...

    Pokémon Day 2026 - Pokemon Winds and Waves coming 2027!

    As much as I hate P2W, my inner devil's advocate can understand it in theory in this case because of being meant to connect to the console games via Bank. That said, I'm putting an emphasis on "in theory" because 20 Wins to unlock the Items for a team makes is still a pretty big barrier even if...

    Pokémon Day 2026 - Pokemon Winds and Waves coming 2027!

    That would be amazing if Meganium could learn Growth. I wonder if Game Freak is willing to let that happen now... Interesting that it turns out this wasn't just flavor text.

    According to Serebii, you can't. :(

    Your First Starter and Your Favorite Starter

    My first starter was Treecko. The two main things I remember about using it were having fun with Bullet Seed's randomness (The number of hits and the animation are both random. Each seed in the animation bounce left or right.) and that Grovyle's back sprite reminded me of the Mona Lisa. In RSE...

    Pokémon Day 2026 - Pokemon Winds and Waves coming 2027!

    As much as I want to agree that graphics aren't that important, graphics feel kind of important after seeing a Cetoddle I thought had a lighting glitch. It seemed like the game thought was in the shade even though it wasn't in a shadow, but it turns out it was just Shiny.

    OI SQSA Thread: FRLG Edition

    I'm sure someone's going to want to ask about the National Dex or why they can't get into Cerulean Cave, so I'll answer that ahead of time. You can get the National Dex from Professor Oak after catching 60 Pokemon. After getting the National Dex, there's a post game plot in the Sevii Islands...

    SPOILERS! Legends ZA Data Dumps - Adding Info to OP

    There's multiple Pokedex entries about how the seal on Golurk prevents its power goes out of control. Judging by that thing dangling from its chest, we're about to see how true that is.

    SPOILERS! Legends ZA Data Dumps - Adding Info to OP

    It looks like it's demanding its place back in UUBL. This is the most majestic Mega and a serious contender for my favorite Mega. If years of being shunned is what made Crabominable unlock its potential to be this awesome, I'm not apologizing. It has the same number of limbs after Mega...

    SPOILERS! Legends ZA Data Dumps - Adding Info to OP

    The type change is very interesting IMO because it means base Golisopod shares no weaknesses with Mega Golisopod I know you're joking about Fire Araquanid, but Araquanid with lava sounds frickin' awesome! :D I was just suspecting they wanted to speed creep 150 Speed. I want to say it finally...

    Pokémon Legends: Z-A General Discussion

    With the Hoenn Starter Mega Stones being confirmed to be Ranked Rewards, I want to point out the fun fact that if Ranked Rewards count as Events then this is the second time Mega Blaziken has been Event Only. (The first time was a Mystery Gift when XY came out and it remained Event Excusive...

    You are a type specialist in a hostile region. How do you best represent your chosen element?

    If any round has to be the finale, the alternate time version of the first round is perfect. With the good old days of Sinnoh, so we're back to the good old days of complaining about the Pokedex! :P You'd think basing the Hisui Dex on Platinum's Dex would stop problems with there being too...

    Coming in last usually hurts, but 10 points makes if feel pretty good. :) what... ... That can't be possible. *checks list* ... 0_o I thought Dark FRLG Kanto would be the hardest! Thanks a ton for this list. It made looking for Pokemon to use much easier. Huh... About half of these Pokemon...

    Sticky Orange Islands SQSA Thread

    This probably isn't what you mean because it's still in the game code, but the closest to Charizard has been to not being in a main series game is in Ruby/Sapphire. You can't even see it without hacking or trading with Fire Red/Leaf Green, which didn't exist until a year later. The next closest...
