    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    Honestly Paradox Jigglypuff looks like the love child of Majin Buu and Arianna Grande more than a homage to Mega Mewtwo Y

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

    Have kinda kept myself out of the loop on all the news related to this game but seeing as we're less than three months from release I thought I'd chime in. My opinion so far has been meh. Partially because I think I'm over Pokemon as a game series (as I mentioned a few years ago, SwSh might be...

    New Pokemon Snap - Released April 30th!

    If history repeats itself it'll be GameStop and then in a few years they too will go out of business like Blockbuster and teens and young adults in 2032 will be reminiscing on how much fun they had there when they were little.

    Pokémon Movepool Oddities & Explanations

    I would assume balance reasons. Looking at their stats, dealing with Counter/Mirror Coat/Metal Burst on any of the Regis would be a pain, especially in earlier gens. Regirock could run Sturdy with a custap berry, use counter when knocked down to 1 HP, and then use Explosion. The Japanese name...

    New Pokemon Snap - Released April 30th!

    This game is being released in four weeks and we haven't had any new information about it in over a month. I wonder if we will get blitzed with ads in the last two weeks or is it going to be just a very quiet release. I wouldn't mind seeing more gameplay footage myself.

    Pokemon Legends - Arceus - 28th Jan 2022 *Official Content Only*

    After sleeping on it, I do wonder if Pokemon Legends is getting released in 2022 so that it can be a launch title for the rumored Switch Pro. Which may lead to a CyberPunk situation: the game runs pretty well on the upgraded console but lags on the standard Switch. Honestly, from the trailer...

    Pokemon Legends - Arceus - 28th Jan 2022 *Official Content Only*

    I'm cautiously optimistic for this game. The biggest question for me, now, is if this GameFreak finally stepping away from the Generation Cycle of the last 25 years? The game comes out in 2022, which is when we would be getting news about Gen IX, if not the first games of Gen IX themselves...

    Pokemon Presents - 26th Feb 2021

    Mad Lads went out and actually did it. I'm okay with the DP remakes. I find it fascinating, in both good and bad ways, that GameFreak is finally outsourcing. I don't think I'll get the game, but I do think that the artstyle is decent, and I hope they use Platinum for some of the base rather...

    New Pokemon Snap - Released April 30th!

    This game looks absolutely beautiful and I'm glad that they have included more items than the original. I do wonder how many Pokemon we'll get to see? Also, the Photo Edits have huge meme potential, I wonder if we'll be able to export them to Social Media sites in addition to the Online feature.

    Pokemon Presents - 26th Feb 2021

    An out for GF here would be to just make the third DLC a free upgrade that gets downloaded to your Switch if you want it. However, GF isn't in the business of making fans happy at the cost of their bottom line so I wouldn't jump on this train. Either way, we'll know in less than a day.

    Pokemon Presents - 26th Feb 2021

    I have some expectations, but I'm not getting my hopes up for anything because at this point who knows. My predictions are: -Third DLC with a Ultimate SwSh bundle dropping in the Fall. This makes the most sense to me, seeing where we are in the life cycle of the generation and what is missing...

    Here are the updated charts for every type, along with a chart showing breakdown of each move category per type. Some insights from the data: -Dragon and Steel are the most straightforward types, with moves that fall into only 5 categories. Almost 3/4 of Dragon moves are...

    Pokemon 25th Anniversary Celebration!

    Would Pokemon Generations, the animated series on Youtube, be considered part of the 20th anniversary?

    Pokemon 25th Anniversary Celebration!

    I'm a big meh on this anniversary so far. Yeah, it's nice that some celebrities are signing on for the campaign and that we'll get some special raids in GO (though I don't play) and new cards but so far it looks really lackluster, at least compared to the 20th anniversary. Personally, I think...

    New Pokemon Snap - Released April 30th!

    They kind of give me LGPE vibes? Like they are short with very large heads, going for that chibi look.
