  1. Little things you like about Pokémon

    One thing I love about Pokémon is how its incredible diversity inspires creative ways to keep track of things. For example, to remember the future paradox forms, I use the mnemonic ‘I Inversely Invigorate Ions Inside Invulnerable Icicles’ I - Iron Treads Inversely - Iron Hands Invigorate -...
  2. (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    Should have been Hatenna, Hattrem and Hattterene I’m playing Sword again and it’s really annoying that I can’t just throw myself off ledges and fly around the wild area on an eagle.
  3. Pokemon Scarlet & Violet - 18th Nov 2022! **OFFICIAL INFO ONLY**

    I’m naming him ‘Don Quaxote’ just kidding I’m team Fuecoco
  4. SPOILERS! Pokemon Legends: Arceus *Leak Thread*

    I hope they don’t bring the Legend Plate into the main series games. I hope they just change Multitype to have the same effect. and update the RKS System to match as well I guess, who really has time for ‘plates’ and ‘memories’?
  5. "Worst Pokémon Ever"

    I think once you get past the ice cube it has quite a noice face
  6. Let's Play! A journey through the insanity that is Pokemon Snakewood (Completed)

    Isn't 'the Lord' referencing 'Lord Gravetric, ruler of the underworld' there? Or am I missing a bit?
  7. Unpopular opinions

    Looks like it's time to bring in the Stone Stone! Or the Steel Stone I guess but it's just not the same.
  8. (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    It annoys me that there are a load of old legendaries coming back. They've always felt shoehorned in, it takes away from some of their 'majesty', I suppose. "Oh hey, this creature from the beginning of creation nearly destroyed your world? That's neat, here's a nondescript corridor with it...
  9. SPOILERS! Sword and Shield in-game team discussion thread

    Anyone find any surprises or disappointments in the mons they used in playthrough? One surprise for me was Grapploct. Chased me in a route so I caught it for the heck of it, swapped it for a fainted member and it really put in work. I'm not usually a fan of fighting types or sea-life designs...
  10. Little things you like about Pokémon

    I'm not sure if it's because it's so cringeworthy, but having Jedward as the Galar heirs is something that I've grown to enjoy.
  11. Little things you like about Pokémon

    I don't have my copy yet so I can't be sure, but I assume there's a chance, upon sending out your final-form grass starter, that the message will read, 'Go Rillaboom!' and this makes me happy.
  12. SPOILERS! Mysteries and Conspiracies of Pokemon

    Yet she's the only one who has been able to revive a fossil without getting any of the stone mixed in :o
  13. SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword & Shield Pre-Release SPOILERS - Check Post 2!

    That reminds me of Duraludon, for some reason
  14. Sword & Shield **Official news only** DLC Crown Tundra 22nd October

    Why is it still that you can only infatuate opponents of the opposite sex? Eevee's new move is a cuddle, everyone loves a cuddle. They could have it work on all opponents and be actually sort of useful, but no, 'can't do that, it's gay' :facepalm:

    Why don't they do this already? Give us in-game Doubles, damnit
  16. (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    Is it supposed to be an extension of 'all the gears working together'? Like you use two Klinklang, one Plus, one Minus, and on the first turn they use Magnetic Flux and Gear Up to boost both their stats even further? It would be a nice gimmick, the more gears you put together the stronger the...
  17. Sword & Shield **Official news only** DLC Crown Tundra 22nd October

    Apparently some people are saying their view was blocked the first time Galarian Ponyta showed up?
  18. Sword & Shield **Official news only** DLC Crown Tundra 22nd October

    If there are 1000+ staff I hope the credits are skippable :P Did the interviewer ask, "Will there be references to British slang? Like 'Bellossom-end'?"
  19. (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    With regards to HMs, why not: Each Pokemon has its HM capability as an inherent trait (e.g Tyranitar can swim, cut bushes, push boulders and break rocks). At certain points in the game, a character teaches you how to use these 'field traits'. This way you don't have them all at once. As long...
  20. (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    Apparently Onix weighs 33 stone (around 210 kg), making it - a giant snake made of boulders - one third of the weight of the heaviest recorded human. Still, rocks are hard, and it isn't incredibly light, so if it took the least amount of effort and just fell on someone, you'd expect it to be at...
