Darn... I was hoping they'd at least finally give Tauros and Miltank a shared baby pre-evo to finally cement their gender counterpart status outside of fucking pokedex entries and farm cameos.View attachment 3496713
Or at least give Miltank a less cartoony new regional form that better synchs with Tauros.
It makes sense Tauros get a new Regional form. After all Spain is well known for abusing bulls.

My guess it be Normal/Fighting duo type. Likely trade most of its defense stat for speed or attack.

And if we really lucky GF might add in a Running of the Bulls event.

Should at least let Tauros be the mount that replaces the bike again, but we all know how much GameFreak HATES bringing back popular features because they want to keep it "muh fresh"

Pokemon mounts has been used in more one entry at this point. Pokemon SM, USUM and Legends.

It could likely make a return, but I don't mind just using the bike.

Overworld shinies are potentially returning? Ehhhh no thanks. I'll stick to gens 2-5 thank you very much.

Most shiny hunters are unwatchable nowadays. A lot of them are either consoomers, political twittards or people who overdo their reactions for views so hard that they look like genuine retards. I just want to hunt shinies with frens, not hear about the Roe vs Wade shitstorm while looking for sparkly monsters. *sigh*

So if you’re gay or a chick you pick violet and if you’re a dyke or horny you pick scarlet?
Someone at Gamefreak knows how to market their games to the internet, considering the amount if Coomer Bait characters that’re the first revealed every gen.

The choice boiling down to Gigachad and Death by Snu Snu is funny to watch though

What kinda of shiny hunters are you watching where political discussion is common place?

Also, what does that have to do with overworld shinies?

In hindsight I should've put the non leak shit outside of the spoiler. Please be patient I am retarded.

The SJW mindset is quite common in the hunting community and once I know they're tweeting the usual SJW shit it makes them unwatchable (though that's how I feel with content creators in general). I know I've seen at least one video where the Roe vs Wade thing made it into footage taken from livestreams.

Yes, I have tried to look past these issues, and there have been a few exceptions to the rule, but at this point I'm so tired of real world shit invading my fun hobbies that I don't bother anymore.

Overworld shinies, from what I've seen, makes hunting a joke and encounters go super fast. Now if that's the way you want to hunt then sure, go for it, but I feel the challenge and some of the rarity of shinies has been taken away from the franchise. I just prefer mindlessly mashing buttons on multiple game systems at full odds until I get sparkly pokemon.

That's cool. That's kind of what happens when people have been pushing for overworld pokemon encounters.

Damn if leaks are true, I actually don't hate it. As long as it does not have Hop interrupting you even fucking 5 minutes, then I am good.
Dealing with Hop makes me want to Hop off a bridge

The saddest part was, there was a "skip movies" option on Sw/Sh, but it only works for like 4 cutscenes in the game, and not the 100+ player interuptions
Even watching playthroughs with him is annoying, although not to the extent of actually playing it yourself.
 
It's a shame as the worlds were OK, not X and Y level because X and Y and gen 5 had really cool worlds. Sw/Sh was dragged so far down by the cutscenes, that it would have been forgivable if it had payoff but the whole Rose plotline fizzled.

Gen 8 had some really cool designs too as did 7 but I wish GF and Nintendo would really push competitive VGC. Staple a battle pass to it and some outfits/alt move pokemon and it'll encourage a lot more VGC players.

I assume next year we will get a remake of black and white, which actually would be good the b/w story was great. I am playing through Arceus still and on biome 4, I just defeated Arcanine and Arceus is a fantastic game. Characters are a bit meh but overall a really solid game and very refreshing to play. I assumed it was B/W for the remake cycle because R/B will get either a sequel or a remake for the 30th anniversary in 2026.

I can see the next Legends game being based in Johto and then after Kanto for the anniversary.
 
Forgive me for I have sinned this past week, I've been playing Let's Go Eevee for shiny hunting and to break the chain of monotony that is PLA's Shiny hunting. Catch Combos make it as easy PLA's Mass Outbreaks but you also get the added bonus of being able to sit in one spot and wait until the Pokémon you're chaining pops up as Shiny. The only downside is that it's a pain in the ass for rare spawns like the Starters and you're forced to ignore non-chained Shinies that pop up or run from Shinies that are about to run away if you want to preserve the combo.

TPC and Game Freak have a “If it’s not broke don’t fix it” policy regarding VGC (although they will fiddle around with various rules for the first competitive rotation), we haven’t gotten a battle pass for the main games‘ online PVP play and I doubt it’ll happen anytime soon. If the that International Challenges that took place a few months ago were any indication then all TPC and GF have to do is alter the participation prizes to get people coming. Well, that and addressing the rampant hacking that‘s present in VGC but that’s for another time.
 
Okay this screencap got a laugh out of me.

As autistic as this dude is...he's not wrong. I'm kind of tired of seeing Pikachu, Evee, and Charizard in fucking everything. Hell, even Pikachu clones need to stop. The only reason people cried over Dexit was because they were upset they couldn't recreate the team they used in Gen 1 for the millionth time.
