God, I was sitting here for a few minutes jamming to that track and remembered part of what got me back into Pokemon was catching their reruns on Boomerang back then. Almost qualifies a core memory for me thinking back on it.

I am mixed on Sword and Shield but I definitely approve of it introducing the mechanic to equip a ribbon/mark and show off a title to add a little personal flourish to your mon as well as giving a fun incentive to possibly collect them on any mons in past games before moving them forward.

Knowing Corbeau, he'd probably use the fact you stomped his employees as grounds to raise the interest and move back the goalposts a bit but yeah it's surprising they didn't think to have "what if" dialogue if players spent extra time at the Royale and had the money up front. Esp because there...

I may or may not have cleared out the French Hot Topics and ignored nearly everything else because I liked the gothic stuff a bit too much. I have some pics of my Sword fit lying around but I don't feel like loading up Galar anytime soon to remember what I currently have.

Since its only Poison-type option normally is Belch, safe to say one of the set moves is going to be Tera Blast but man this thing's got a movepool to work with. Dark Pulse/Snarl/Dragon Pulse/Draco for special stabs, a lot of coverage options from Earth Power/Fire Blast/Focus Miss/Surf/etc...

Come to think of it, I was wondering why it felt familiar for the past few days. Damn.

Battling other players doesn't count towards that mission, winning or not. The thing assumes you were going to turbo grind the Royale postgame for that which is why it's so absurdly high

I guess I am the odd one who somehow had a decent time with that quest, mostly because Jumbos have a deeper pitch to their cry still and that's how I was able to identify a non-alpha one. Still doesn't change the fact that quest is largely annoying to do and wishing you guys luck with that

My end of story team was Mawile, Gyarados, Chandelure, Bois, Ampharos, and Chesnaught. In reality, it may as well have been just been the first four with Ampharos existing to do thunderbolt + t wave and Chesnaught bc I couldn't have been bothered to set up a replacement. Mawile and Chandelure...

Just reached credits in Z-A. I am lousy at articulating but this is honestly the most fun I ever had playing a Pokémon game by, presumably because the battle aspects were what tickled my brain the most and this game focusing on it was pure joy. Could do with some adjustments but I honestly vibe...

Okay, these animations alone have launched Starmie into being up there as one of my favorites of the new Megas so far for the milking the absurdity for its worth

Yeah, and Valiant has the set variety for me to consider getting a second mighty mark one too. After I am able to join in some of the Scarlet Paradoxes to get some overdue mons in balls I wanted them in. Hoping getting a low atk iv Flutter isn't as awful.

I wonder if they removed the shiny lock on the 5* Paradoxes while they were at it too. Anyways, happy now I can hunt for Moon. Not so much about getting a second Valiant though...

Off the top of my head, friendship evolutions in older games is generally up there at the top of the list these days. I was willing to humor the mechanic back then but over time due to now being familiar with what most of those evo lines can do, better alternatives, and frankly decreased...
