    Pokémon Movepool Oddities & Explanations

    In my mind I picture it throwing the net with the same skill as it throws balls. Or maybe carrying around balls in netting. Referencing netting in other sports probably works too, though. Kind of feels like it should get Electroball if it gets Electroweb, actually.

    The Best Art In The Pokemon TCG

    Pokemon Go might have the biggest gulf between art in all the sets. The alt art situation is dire. I understand WHY they are the way they are but also they're just real bad Conkeldurr EX is both a baffling pick and an even more baffling alt art.

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    Took this online Typhlosion/Weezing-G (oh ho)/Iron Moth The first round of moves had acid spray + eruption and took out a quarter of the health bar lmao. I didn't even bother setting up reflect. The typhlosion didn't even get except once towards the end.

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    So Chien-Pao's big gimmick is, shockingly, not spamming Swords Dance, it's spamming Haze? how rude

    My favorites of Gen 8 Honestly....I should probably have just set a rule to not pick the full arts. This era went crazy. Maybe for Gen 9.

    Pokémon Movepool Oddities & Explanations

    Tangentially related to this discussion: I'm surprised Corsola (& Cursola) has never learned dive When I think dives one of the things that comes to mind is diving to look at coral reefs and a lot of their misc depictions likes to show them trundling along the sea floor.

    Well, that's fine then. Like I said if you dont' have those, anything is fine.

    Pokémon Presents - Pokémon Day 2025 - Pokemon ZA Info & Pokemon Champions Announced

    I am going to assume that there will be a moveset wipe will just make you play with the modern moveset. I am also going to assume that if they ever get to a point of Fissure Machamp they just....make it so No Guard doesnt work with the user's OHKO moves....? Which is something they should have...

    Oh I was just completely misremembering despite just looking at them The Magnemite & Grachomp lines do the same thing, though. Metal/Lightning and Fighting/Dragon

    That set did that for a few other mons too, like Lucario. It was an interesting idea, but they didn't do a lot with it. Was fun to see how many picks we overlapped on, by the way.

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    Who cares if it's boring. It's just a relatively minor bonus on top of the main event (the shiny), so may as well just follow on the theme of the four getting more shards for their typings.

    TCP has doubled down on this being their fault for both giving instructions to follow the reference material given exactly as well as providing the fan art in the materials to begin with, not the artist, and also to stop harassing the artist (a man, seemingly, by the way) over this. It's still a...

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    If it's 10 sets of 40 I imagine it's the same 4 types 10 times (since the goal was a set every 100k over the goal) and if thats' the case I mean I can sure think of four types relevant to the four tera raids

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

    https://sv-news.pokemon.co.jp/en/page/382.html SWSH did something similar towards the end of its life, but I think it's neat when they let Mythics out to play like this. They should use it for VGC 2026 just to see if they begrudgingly do international events to actually get some of the mythics...

    I do have a spare Serperior if you want it. It does work, I've done it myself with the Tapu Full art mission, one of the deck missions and I think one other I've forgotten about. I want to do it eventually with all the dumb "Collect 5 of these Rares" missions but even with the changes to the...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    People's conception of time is kind of fucked up in general so ~100-200 years often gets dropped in the ancient bin because wow, thats a lot of years, even though if you think about it logically it's barely one to two life times. This goes double when a setting is ostensibly contemporary but...

    The Best Art In The Pokemon TCG

    I have by & large never enjoyed the "Gold" rares the TCG does. There's a few exceptions here & there (the Treasures of Ruin & Raidons, the stadiums because they're full arts that use the gold as outlines) but for the most part I find them gaudy and it's always just gold versions of the existing...

    Pokémon TCG Pocket

    I was just chatting with a friend about the dumb odds on the themed collection. Meanwhile I got two of the things. Across 41 pulls I have pulled 6 (5 unique) shinies which is kind of ridiculous. I genuinely wonder if they ever think about these themed collections at all. Malicious (just keep...
