Pokémon announced that over 2 million players had beaten the 5-Star Shiny Ting-Lu Tera raid by the 25th, that means we’ll be getting an event distribution for it sometime next week.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but only the first and third Guzma FAs are within anybody's budget since they go for around $15-$20 per copy.

The middle one was exclusive to 1-card blind packs given out at a two sets of Japanese events back in late 2019 (more were scheduled for 2020 but we all know what happened there) with said packs having a 1-in-3 chance of having said Guzma in 'em. Unfortunately said exclusivity caused them to balloon up to $2,500-$3,000 per copy. It does hve a Chinese version that's a much cheaper but it's still around $100 per copy.
 
I'm a simple kiwi; I like Mewtwo as my legendary, with Mr Mime as my sidekick. They're good pokemon, and that's all that matters to me.
 
I tried playing PokeMMO. I enjoyed Gen 1 when I was in middle school, but Adult Me has too much OCD for this series. I've gotta catch 'em all, with the right stats and the right ability, then level them all to max level, and there just aren't enough hours in the day for this. I guess Pokemon isn't for Old Troonos.
 
So ive been kind of disconnected from pokemon for a long time but ill do my best to pick ones that I like and would use if I was a default trainer lol

1. Rattata/Raticate
2.Cyndaquil/Quilava but not typhlosion for obvious reasons, everstone quilava
3.Zigzagoon/linoone
4.Bidoof/Bibarel,
5.Emolga!
6.Dedenne (I love the lore behind dedenne how they all group up to feast on powerlines and people have to get a broom and whack them to get them to disperse so they can watch tv again)
7.Alolan Rattata/Raticate
8.Skwovet/Greedent, the apple brothers
9.Raging bolt, I even got the hillarious plushie that a friend gifted me

If I can put more than one for the gens I would say
1.Sandshrew/Sandslash, Raichu, GOROCHU, Nidoran line
2. Espeon and umbreon are always nice, ariados
3.Sharpedo and salamance
4.Dialga (but hes op so wouldnt use) Gible
5. The guys with red eyes that look like theyve had the worst nightshift ever
6.Aegislash line, klefki, Goomy (only goomy)
7. I love all the ultrabeast designs,
8. Yamper

Im not here to win im here to have STYLE

5 Attack Animations NERFED in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet

- TrainerJames

tl;dw:
Brave Bird
Dragon Darts
Phantom Force
Spirit Shackle
Gunk Shot

I think "all of them" is more like it. And I think that those Stadium, Colosseum, and Battle Revolution vidya had the best animations.

If you compare legendary signature moves from SwSh to SV most of them were nerfed, Solgaleo's and Lunala's especially, they no longer enter their radiant sun/full moon phase when using them. I get that it was done to let you move the camera during battle but it's still a shame.
PS I hate these videos' trend of including normal moves just to show off every legendary. I didn't click on the video to see Ice Beam and Flamethrower, what a waste of time.

I must have slipped into a different dimension because I could have SWORN Nidorina could breed, but Nidoqueen couldn't.

Regardless, that makes cannon instances like this really really funny in hindsight.

Week late, just noticed this little post. I like to headcanon that because they're superclones and therefore considered superior to their originals, it's totally plausible Mewtwo (unintentionally) worked around the infertility issue, but did it so precise that Nidoqueentwo could literally just give birth to baby Nidoqueen. Those babies are gonna blow some researchers' minds to smithereens if they ever get discovered.

I know this got fixed-ish in the Mewtwo Returns reboot manga few years back, but fuck that, baby Nidoqueen are actually adorable.

What a coincidence, two days ago I finally booted up PokeHex to change my HG rival's name to Silver.
Child me thought it was hilarious to name him Fucker.
Current me wasn't very amused.

Im discovering the joy of fucking with the custom names on nintendo games for the first time cause I grew up very straight edge and I have a natural tendency to stick to defaults everywhere. Its very fun putting things like kikekiller, niggerfaggot, weinstein as names with hobbies like gooning and mooning, gives me a good giggle.

My first Pokémon game was Diamond. I named my rival Albert but spelled it Abert by accident. In hindsight I'd be better off going with a meme name for the funny.
 
Paradox mons disappointed me immeasurably. They could’ve gone the route of speculative biology and instead they did gayass “savage” and “robot” designs.

Pokémon fans who defend Gamefreak are like the guy who wants Sonic’s shit from this video

Megas for Pokémon without an evolution is retarded. Just give them an evolution.

Hoenn is the most Jewish generation.

The thing about paradox Pokemon is that they are effectively a childish hypothesis thought of by a woman and manchild who's obsessed with a schizo scientist who is effectively being duped by an LSD turtle.

The turtle is effectively willing things into existence as a means to get humans to do its bidding which effectively seems to run around it's essence) gimmick.

It's a really fascinating idea but the execution is all over the place to say the least which is why paradox Pokemon are so hard to understand by most people.
