Jesus, I'm dumb.
...but that raises even more questions. Surely we should have found out where Chilly Reception comes from, then? Unless literally no one wants to play with Slowbro.

Chilly Reception is an old Pokémon movie reference, the one with the talking Slowking, where he said a joke about wishing he had pants in the blizzard

Afaik that "unknown flag" ended up just being relearner moves that arent known at lvl 1.
(Es: all Paradoxes had their own respective field condition move with that flag, and you can just relearn it from the menu)
Great Tusk appears as a static encounter in the desert
you can encounter wild ones in area zero post credits
I'm treating the regional dex order as the natdex order until proven otherwise, mostly because Centro insisted on internal id being the actual dex order, and he's stupid, so the opposite of that is probably true.
As for the relearn move table I'm still just listing them as "other" in my database until more is known. It's still super weird that some mons seemingly have their egg move tables in there.

hopefully they agree with whatever yall already have in mind
1009 and 1010 are placeholders.
1000 - I don’t know they put that first character, but the 2nd and 3rd characters combined just mean ‘rich person’.
brb leaving no stone unturned in the desert
Going by Regional Dex, the new mons are in the same order but the crossgens are out of order. That more or less checks out with how Sword and Shield went.
found it in the western side of the desert. i'm guessing it only appears after you do the story fight with the titan great tusk?

awesome gaming
Their evos are cool and all, but let's give a big hand to these guys for being the first set of Pokemon in series history to have retconned Eviolite compatibility.
4 Johto Normals and Bisharp. What a batch.
Alright. I finally decided my team, although no doubt these plans will change a fair bit.
Meowscarada and Ceruledge carry a lot of fights with their STABs as well as Play Rough and Psycho Cut. Tinkaton and Clodsire use their STABs and Brick Break/Megahorn to cover additional weaknesses. Cyclizar and Bellibolt kinda just do stuff, I guess.
With that said, how early-game is Cyclizar anyway? I remember Pooper, Charcadet, Tinkatink and (I think) Tadbulb being cited as early-game, but I'm not sure about Cyclizar.
Hopefully Grass/Fire Drought Sunflora evo is next

Considering that we just got a grass/fire pokemon, I think you'll need a lot of copium for this one I'm afraid
So the changes from the regional order are they took the evolutions, put them between Tatsugiri and the paradoxes and then placed them in generation order
so instead of Clodsire, Annhilape, Dudunsparce, Farigiraf, Kingambit it's Annihilape, Clodsire, Farigiraf, Dudunsparce, Kingambit
makes sense to me
Probably not, nothing else that boosts Defense aside from actual stat boosts affects Body Press. It just uses Attack raising things.
To be fair sometimes gamefreak has a fast turn around. We got our first grass/ghosts in Gen 6 and then got 2 more in Gen 7
And sometimes they just suddenly circle back to a typing and never let it die. Psychic/Fairy and Normal/Psychic hello
I hope they will add new evolutions in DLCs or in future generations.
Hypno, Sunflora, Ledian, Magcargo etc ...

It's true but these were types that thematically are somewhat easy to make work.
Grass + Ghost is basically just a ghost or spirit that is somewhat related to plants, and well Fairy + Psychic is a pretty easy to make association ...
Fire+Grass on other hand isn't exactly something I can see easily replicating. Though I have to credit the idea of the pepper plant, that is really clever.
Yooo, Ledian evolution would be so fucking hype.
Koraidon? I thought you were talking Kommo-o .-.
Remember what happened when we got a Grass/Ghost? We got even more of them afterwards.
This is not even hopium anymore, it's pure facts
Sunflora is a literal sunflower, you can't be any firegrassier than that
Naw, I mean, when it comes to Pokemon, people make a big deal out of what they are based on or inspired by, but you don't really need real-life inspiration to pump out more Fire/Grass pokemon. I mean, a good chunk of the type is just adding Fire to random animals. Why not plants?
Speaking of inspiration though:
