    Pokemon Of The Year: Your Picks and Predictions

    For me it goes: 1. Arcanine 2. Typhlosion 3. Altaria 4. Leafeon 5. Samurott 6. Goodra 7. Primarina 8. Corviknight As you can see, I have the most vanilla tastes in the world. My predictions are ultimately pretty similar, but I also think that Eevee has a good chance to take Gen 1...

    Unpopular opinions

    I'd overall say that while I like Megas, I generally agree with the points you make here. However, in regards to being unnatural, I find that it's perfectly fine seeing as Mega Evolution is itself an unnatural process caused by the Ultimate Weapon and its lingering energy, thus making drastic...

    SPOILERS! Sword and Shield in-game team discussion thread

    Given what we know about Kubfu in the Isle of Armor expansion, evolving as we progress through the mode and all that, I’m very curious how Isle of Armor is going to handle teambuilding. Is there going to be sufficient incentive to actually raise a new team specifically for the journey, or is it...

    Sword & Shield **Official news only** DLC Crown Tundra 22nd October

    I actually really like Kunfu and Urbshifu along with the new Regis personally, but Calyrx disturbs me on a level that I didn’t even know existed up until this point. Why is its head so big? Why is the rest of it so small? Why???

    Pokémon Games Story Discussion

    I’m personally of the opinion that the stakes need to be dramatically lowered, and that evil teams just need to go entirely. The formula was perfected in Generation 5 - the stakes weren’t a matter of a literal existential crisis, but still had serious ramifications for you and the entire world...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    So in this generation, excluding the legendaries, we got 3 new mono-fighting Pokemon (which in this case I’m referring to just fully evolved ‘mons) - Falinks, Grapploct, and Sirfetch’d. These are also the only Fighting types we got, and they all have the same, boring type??? Sirfetch’d could...

    Unpopular opinions

    The Elite Four as a system is probably one of the weakest parts of the Pokemon games consistently, and it’s because they feel like such a fundamentally video game-y concept. Beating the strong bosses consecutively in order to face the final boss feels less like a Pokemon game at first glance and...

    SPOILERS! Sword and Shield in-game team discussion thread

    Thanks for the warning - because of the availability issues and learning that I can’t disable the EXP Share, I opted to try a very different approach. I’ve managed to assemble a rotation of 10 ‘mons, which not only cover all types but have no overlap whatsoever. They’re also all new to gen 8...

    SPOILERS! Sword and Shield in-game team discussion thread

    Going to get Shield for Christmas, so I have ample time to plan out my team! Thinking of going for a team of: Inteleon Boltund Corviknight Grimmsnarl Grapploct Frosmoth I’ve got a decent balance of availability and don’t have any type overlap, which as far as in-game goes is more than good...

    What are some moves that are extremely rare in certain generations?

    Cut, of all moves, became inexplicably rare in Generation VII; the only Pokemon that is able to learn it is Kartana. Otherwise, you’ll have to transfer something up that’s learned it if you’re so inclined. It has never been learned naturally before Kartana, yet it was nearly ubiquitous and one...

    Dexit discussion thread

    My thoughts on Dexit are largely the same as most people who perceive it negatively - I strongly disagree with it, and don’t plan to support Pokemon in the future until Dexit is revoked (meaning I’m not buying Sword and Shield, or likely any more Pokemon games unfortunately). With that extreme...

    SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword & Shield Pre-Release SPOILERS - Check Post 2!

    I know many of the screenshots are suspect, but this one seems especially off to me. The model quality just looks... substantially different from everything else we’ve seen? That’s not even necessarily in a good or bad way, it just looks off compared to what we’ve seen. Then again the...

    Allegedly the leaker is taking purposefully bad shots so as to stay out of trouble and preserve the mystery at least a bit? Dumb logic, but whatever I guess. Point is, don’t expect better screenshots unfortunately

    Running with the idea that the Gigantamax list is in alphabetical order, this kills a ton of Pokemon for Gigantamaxes lol, to the point that it’s not worth bothering listing them all since it kills all Pokemon from H through the early Ks
