You get it. I even have some crazy friends that don't mind bottle capping because they like to go for certain Characteristics. The famous proud of its power Lucario guy was just ahead of his time!

Agreed when it comes to IVs where bottle capping is strictly inferior, but I've really come to appreciate the extra level of customization that Mints brought in. I like that I can go for shinies with a nature that I think fits them more than their competitive one -- why should my Volcarona be...

You get so few Tera shards from raids... And you need 50 of the type you want every time you want to switch... Competitive is gonna require more genning than ever.

You must not play a lot of BSS if you think they give a shit about the format :psysly:

:pika: I didn't know that, Rise has one of the smoothest MP experience on the switch. Ok, I'm officially not a doomer.

At this point I could care less about the graphics. It somehow looks worse than PLA but tbh in the trailers for that game they chose some very unflattering shots too (seriously the game looks so much worse when you're flying) so I think they just don't care about those first impressions. It'll...

I don't mind improved shiny rates, I just wish they'd bring back the variety of method hunts from gen 6. I'm so damn tired of hatching Masuda eggs.

Just got the shiny charm! What a great entry in the franchise overall, it feels so weird enjoying the vast majority of the gameplay of a pokemon title instead of speeding through the story to get to the 10% of side content I actually give a shit about. Hopefully the DLC gives us more battling...

The space time distortions are the worst part of the game. The one Shieldon I caught during the story maxed out at research level 9 so now I have to go sit around the Highlands for another few hours. :puff:

Sorry but this is pure circular reasoning. "Everything I liked about the switch games was thanks to dexit, everything I hated about the 3ds games was because of the burden of dex compatibility" lol. I also don't think PLA is a "quantum leap" of quality compared to SWSH, as a matter of fact I...

People's rankings of the games are always meaningless anyway since so many moving parts are involved and it seems silly to think you can reduce all of them to an accurate hierarchy - design, gameplay, story, multiplayer experience, and post-game would be my personal criteria, and I would rank...

There's also the fact that gamefreak isn't doing this game and they've historically been very protective of their IP even when they directly contract out a company. Where's Shadow Lugia in mainline pokemon? I don't think it's unreasonable or even unrealistic to think the remakes won't change...

I've never understood what the big deal was supposed to be with the stats, it's not like any of the starter lines are conceptually similar. Is every Electric type design a rehash because 90% of them use the same "high speed and spa" template? Also Typhlosion was arguably at its strongest in GSC...

Ditto Request (Gen 6): Nickname: Perfect IVs: 31/31/31/31/31/31 (Held Item: Ability Capsule if possible!) edit: got sniped, added new Mareep IGN: Toast Deposited a lvl 13 Male Mareep in pokeball GTS message : Thanks Eisen!

I remember Link's Awakening putting a pretty big emphasis on the new dungeon builder during promo season, actually. I never played the game, though, so I don't know if it was a big feature.

On the flipside, it's fairly common to see people complain about the player character being kept out of the action in base SWSH. It adds to Leon's character, but from a gameplay perspective it's not very fun to be told "oh yeah, and then Leon solved this problem without your help". When it comes...

You know what I really want this route trainer to have on his team? What's that? Did you say the exact same pokemon you can encounter in the tall grass three steps away, except two levels higher? Yes, that's correct! :psysad: Seriously, the roster is so big these days, how is this still a...

I mean with this kind of reasoning you could justify removing literally any feature. Why even bother coding the underground in the Sinnoh remakes? The shitty fanbase is gonna harass Masuda on twitter anyway!!! At the end of the day, corners get cut because games are getting more difficult to...

You're in the 30s five minutes into XY anyway, so I've never really thought about those two as disappointing.

Just breed your fossil and leave it on the GTS overnight asking for the other one. ORAS/XY online is still surprisingly active. I did it like a month ago and got it.
