I meant "disable cutscenes" and Worldie already confirmed it doesn't work unfortunately.

You can disable cutscenes by closing your eyeballs and shouting "LALA I CANT HEAR YOU!" at your device. When you look again, the cutscene will be over. Trust me, it works.
Welp, goodnight you all !
Ping me if you have anything else worth mentionning on the doc !
I'll check my doc, but will mostly rest.

People who pick the grass starter get some herb to smoke for free.
Cause in long term is faster, expecially if you don't want to constantly have to go out in the wild and make the pokemon relearn them, and rather want to just click in a menu.
I don't think I understand you. Why would you have to constantly relearn the move?
The "rotom forme moves" weren't in the movesets as they are thought via ""form change"". No real reason to assume they're different now.
That is, until we can actually find the rotom catalog..
Don’t have the game, but almost assuredly. Pokémon since Gen 6 have 4 moveslots on their data for moves they’ll always be able to remember. It’s typically whatever the Pokémon is born with, though for some events it’ll be whatever they come with when you get them. So yes, they’ll be permanent.
Learning an egg move in SWSH or BDSP through the daycare trick wouldn’t add this move to that pool of 4 moves so it seems to function the same way in SV
Rotom Catalog is at the auction area. I watched a buddy of mine buy it as he was streaming. I don't recall the city name, but wherever the auctions happen.
We haven’t had a lot of info about the auctions. would be quite interesting to see what other items are available. Could be another way for ability patches potentially? and apriballs
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 modest? Why wouldn't my Whimsicott be naughty? etc. This gen you bet my shiny F-Delibird will be Jolly ;)
Not going lie.
GF should remove IVs in Gen X. HP is gone, and everyone in comp either use 0 or 31ivs. There no reason to keep it anymore

"Every Pokemon is different".
I bred an RNG dex in Gen 5, RNGed my own JP Dittos in Gen 6, and bred a comp Pokédex in Gen 7. I will probably not be breeding for IVs often, only if it’s convenient (IE once I can get good parents off of Home). Breeding is also just a way to keep playing the game even if there’s not a particularly large amount of anything left to do, so I can see it being used that way. I shiny hunted like everything in PLA just because I wanted to keep playing the game.
I personally will be shiny hunting way more than breeding for nice IVs with this changes though, that’s for sure. I’ve lived through like every era of competitive breeding except the GBA days and I’m super happy to see it reduced to a non-nessessity.

Illuminate bros...
genuinely surprised that them instituting the slashing moves / wind moves category they didn't think to just make a light-based category for those. it's easy!
I have no idea what any of that means. Could you elaborate?
So weird that they made Headlong Rush a Punching move, but not the one with punches and kicks in the animation..
Tell that to Charizard and Typhlosion's base stats.
Then what does Illuminate even do? It has absolutely no effect in battle. Though, unless they get added into the DLC, none of the Pokemon with Illuminate are available in the game right now.
Problem: What to do with Illuminate now that field effects are gone
Answer: Do not have any Illuminate users; that's next game's problem!
Sorry, I should have been more explicit - when I said "less than ideal", I really should have specified that collectors really like having things without any serious modification. Changing aspects after they've been created tends to be viewed as skipping some of the standard grind and thus cheapens the work invested. That's obviously not true, but it's definitely a running perception.
I'd also be remiss to not mention that bottle caps and mints are a rather modern invention. A lot of the "culture" around mon collecting (if you can call it that) was set when these weren't an option, and so a lot of these beliefs haven't really evolved with the times. Even in Gen 7 when capping was first introduced, people were fairly concerned that the mechanic would be axed in a subsequent Gen and so people didn't want to invest time into mons with flawed IVs. So it's really only been in the last three-ish years that these modifications have been a bit acceptable.
Of course, I think matching natures to a Pokemon's attributes is nice touch. I personally don't do it (with one exception) beacuse most of my mons are still offered in Gen 7 and so it's really not a practical option atm. Standardization is also much more efficient and helps speed up some of my processes, so that does need to be taken into account. But it certainly does add a nice flare!
