If that's the case, I hope it's a bug that the devs already noticed and fixed for release, because leaking which Pokemon your opponent has in the back is not great. :P

On bluesky Serebii noted that attack drops finally happen simultaneously ...but in his written review he noted that psychic terrain expanding force hit each target separately.

Thank you, I was going nuts trying to find something like this. It's not encouraging that the paragraph about ZA compatibility seems to leave open the possibility that it might come after champions compatibility, but surely, surely they wouldn't tout bonuses for linking ZA to champions if they...

Could you link the news post / timestamp of a video where it confirms this, please? I did not spot this info on any of the news posts on the official sites when I looked for it.

Do I understand correctly that, despite the trailer leading with the ability to obtain Pokemon through HOME, and despite giving us a release date for Champions, they still have not given us a definite release date for HOME compatibility with ZA and Champions, nor confirmed that it will be...

I didn't pull that idea out of thin air, various leakers have made the claim that some of the delays are related to fallout from the tera leak, and have suggested that some content/plans have gotten scrapped/reworked because of it. Apparently the delay to 2027 is allegedly a relatively recent...

"HOME spring 2026":psygrump: What is this nonsense, Game Freak. Get your/ILCA's act together and stop waiting months after a game's release to add HOME connectivity. What's the issue this time? You wanted to make one big update for ZA and Champions at the same time or something? Make 2 updates...

I hope TPCi has a second version of this ad locked and loaded for April Fools' day in which every celebrity's favorite Pokemon is Charizard.

They really can't figure out how to pose this guy, huh. Mega Zeraora really needed to go back to the drawing board. Feraligatr too. Its gimmick can't be perfectly replicated in its still art, but they really should have made some tweaks to a least give a better hint of the gimmick. Like, give...

I sure hope HOME support drops next week, because a ranked ladder format in which Marshadow is pulling its weight is the dream, but I want to use my lil' buddy during the story too. In the SwSh ladder formats that Marshadow was legal in, all of the restricteds were legal as well. I'm also happy...

...this is their own domain, I don't think they need to squat the rights on this one. If this does turn out to be the gen 10 name, I will forever be annoyed that they went with a singular wave.

Serebii is just pointing out that hisuian electrode is the first mon/form that didn't exist during SwSh to dynamax. In addition to Greta's Breloom that RN mentioned, there was also Emmet(?)'s Eelektross in Masters. TCG did have a Deoxys Vmax. So while I wouldn't exactly call this a flood, I...

Personally, I prefer PLA's environment and artstyle to ZA's (except for the weird purple tinge everything had), but I loathe the battle system and much prefer ZA's. PLA's battle system wasn't too bad during the main campaign, but fighting 4 alphas at once really showed how bad it could be. Not...
