Guarenteed it was holding a Stick/Leek.... like for real, and not just because it's in his sprite.

P.S. that crit boost is by 2 stages, not just 1

EDIT:
Not sure if Emerald Rogue uses new-gen mechanics, but this is the cherry on top

Thats a thing with this game, alot of mechanise that are in the later gen is still on even if you only have gen 1-3 mode on. hell, some of the different variations of pokemon from later gen is also present.

I took part in Go Fest’s events earlier today, I liked the boosted Shiny rate and the UB raids but it felt weird to not see other raids instantly filling up. Tomorrow‘s going to be interesting considering that the UBs are gone (unless you shelled out five bucks to get the Raid research ticket) and the only 5-Star raids you can take part in are Dusk Mane/Dawn Wings Necrozma raids.

Summer break (for kids anyways) is here, and with it some events have been announced for SV.

If Serebii is right these Mass Outbreak events are also Shiny-boosted as well, going by what I’ve seen on Twitter I’m assuming it’s true.

Just sharing something cute, don't mind me:

You mean there's an even greater chance of encountering shinies?
I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case tbh, I found two shiny Pikachus yet can't rob a single Light Ball.

 

[ToroidalBoat]

If TCG were IRL, energy could appear as colored balls with symbols*, and pocketmons could evolve while battling but revert back to basic afterwards (so like '90s Digimon).

* (as seen in "energy search" cards)

 

[Danann]

Would recommend against Miltank since its sprites involve a lot of "this Pokémon is lactating and really enjoying it" shit that is probably fetishistic, with a bonus warning against Sylveon because the people making these sprites come from places where it's more of a trans icon than it is an actual Pokémon.

You forgot about the Ho-oh ones. They clung to that like flies and turned it into pride shit, too.

Yep, the Shiny rate's boosted to a base 0.5% chance for these outbreaks with the boosts provided by Shiny Charm/Sandwich Power/number of Pokémon cleared applying after that 0.5% chance fails.

 

[30+GameOvers]

Has anyone ever bothered with the Trainer Hill in Generation 3? I am finished with the main game and am currently collecting all the new Pokemon the romhack adds. The Kanto starters, as well as Celebii, are locked behind completing Trainer Hill in under 12 minutes. No matter what I do, my team takes 25-30 minutes to complete the challenge, so I am clearly doing something wrong.
I know there is a way to cheese this with a Jolly lv 5 Dragon Rage Smeargle, but I wanted to know if there is another good strategy or team complete the challenge.

I know Pokémon Sleep is basically a non-game, but I love how much better it's handled than Go. Updates with new Pokémon happening every month or two, events that you don't need to buy a ticker for, constant QOL updates, free items being given away pretty often, especially if some bug occurs as a "We're sorry!" thing. There's still a shop for real-world money to be spent on and I'm sure if you could transfer Pokémon from that game to Home there'd be scummier practices going on, but it's just funny to me.

They also spent four years working on it which is unheard of for other Pokémon projects.

Oh, what the fuck, you're right. Made Togetic trans for some reason and everything.

Good thing I'm not a huge fan of most Legendaries, I guess? I never bothered to check Ho-oh because I've always thought its shiny sprite was so unreasonably superior that i'd be disappointed with any fusion the base palette was a part of. Seems that I was correct, only in the wrong way. The tainting of the otherwise-pure rainbow symbol continues.

My sincerest condolences to fans of the big rainbow bird. I hope it never reaches Sylveon levels of tainted.

Had no idea it was in development for so long. Not surprising, I'm sure working out how to register sleep and if the person was restful or moved around or not and shit was a massive endeavor.

Well, it appears that there's 2 sides of this taint. On the head fusions, they're surprisingly clean of taint save for a few with shitty pride flags inserted. Sure they have a lot of rainbows, but you can argue they still aren't universally agreed to be gay as fuck.

The bodies are a different story, though. WAY more of a skewed shitty propaganda:non-propaganda ratio towards the former I say. As I counted around 102 unique sprites sporting different pride flags as opposed to the heads, which have about 29-30 from what I counted. This includes variant sprites as well, but even its still a startlingly high amount. The key here is looking within the finer details.

Damnit, now I need to check ho-oh and Sylveon.



Well, I should have expected this for the ho-oh body.



However, this is almost there. Fix the eyes and beak and this can work.

Im surprised there was restraint of injecting tranny flags into it, considering the usual standard of the Sylveon fusions

Numbers weren't that high for Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings because I was able to get my fusion stones for both Pokemon through PokeGenie (I can make both versions, but Lunala and SolGaleo look too cool for me to fuse). Nobody really bothered with Stakataka, Celesteela, and Phermosa (Xirkutree was a popular one). I spent more time waiting for an early Articuno raid through PokeGenie than I waited for any Necozma raids last weekend. Pokefest wasn't bad, but my only gripe was the spawns for the habitate Pokemon really sucked. Here's hoping the upcoming Steel and Tandemaus events are good (We're getting Mega Lucario, and 3*s are offering the Hisui starters). More Skarmory candies would be nice for pvp (too bad pvp still sucks). We're supposed to get more stardust very soon.

We're going to get another Rayquaza day on August 3rd, but expect Niantic to fuck that up. I won't be surprised if they fuck the Mega Lucario raid event this weekend, to be honest.

My sincerest condolences to fans of the big rainbow bird. I hope it never reaches Sylveon levels of tainted.

I still love Pokemon like Ho-Oh and Snubull/Granbull, but probably because I avoided the fuck awful Pokemon communities out there until I got back into Pokemon Go. The Pokemon playerbase has been bad since the 4Kids days.

Found out about Uranium, a fan-made pocketmons game.

There is the new Nuclear type, which IIRC is weak to all but Nuclear (resists), and Nuclear is super effective on all but Nuclear and Steel (which resist). So in other words, it looks like the new Nuclear type is sorta like that new Shadow type from Colosseum and XD.

Still more interesting than the Stellar "type".
