I got swsh when it came out, hated it, couldn’t even get through the whole game. I think I quit after the 4th or 5th gym and sold the game.
But now I really want to play the post game stuff, like competitive and shiny breeding/hunting and the raids...so I guess I’m gonna suck it up and buy it again (pre owned because I’m a cheap ass and that game isnt worth full price) and power through the main game to get to post game.
I hope that since I have some save data on my switch still it’ll maybe just pick me up where I left off when I quit and I don’t have to do it all over again.
Don’t know yet if I’m getting Legends Arceus when it’s out, I want to see the Reviews and maybe watch some gameplay first before I decide.
Is wonder trade wednesday still a thing? I’m playing omega ruby, trading out some half-hacked shinys (I caught the pokemon legit then I turned it shiny) and I just got a shiny rotom that I think might be competitive-ready from someone who is apparently a twitch streamer.
I hacked my 3ds a couple years ago and forgot I put a randomized Sapphire game on here and never played it? So I started it last night and I just beat the first gym.
My current team is Nidorina, Houndour, Pichu, Misdreavus, Tentacool, and Feebas. It took me like 3 hours of level grinding/finding a good pokemon (Nidorina) to beat that fucking Nosepass.
I love catching pokemon in balls that match/add to their aesthetic. Which makes it a pain when I find a high level one in the underground and want to catch it in a nest ball
Just caught my first full odds shiny ever?? I literally just started to chain, was planning on hunting shiny budew, and this was the first thing I found
Planning on rematching all the gyms with an entirely shiny, EV trained team, even if they shinies have shitty stats. Trying to use mostly a different team, including national dex mons this time, except I’m gonna use Roserade again if I can get a shiny Budew. Planned on that being my first shiny but the radar picked up on Buneary first so I just went with it
First shiny in bdsp! 51st in the chain, doesn’t have the best stats but oh well. Also got one with hidden ability and 3 IVs (not in the same one, unfortunately).
Sorry for the shitty photo, send to phone hasn’t been working for me lately
Excavation minigame in bdsp is like loot boxes without the harmful gambling aspect; instead of losing real-life money in shitty microtransactions all I have to lose is my entire day because I’m addicted to it now
I’m picking up Shining Pearl today (hopefully, it is black friday after all, a fact I conveniently forgot), so I may be expanding my blog to include Pokemon, because my favorite part of any game is the post game shiny hunting/breeding and competitive battling.
I’ve heard there isn’t true comp battling, like, no ranked battling for the remakes, but I’m still gonna treat pvp battling as comp, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Mainly because I just like the EV training grind, probably because I am autism and it’s nice and repetitive.
I know a lot of people are unhappy because the remakes are so close to the original with not a lot of new stuff, but I’m okay with that since I’m mainly looking forward to the stuff I just mentioned, which I think can be done in just about any Pokemon game. And I missed out last gen because I hated SWSH so bad I sold it before finishing the main game. Like, the story was just so boring and there were hardly any side quest things that I love from older games so it didn’t even hold my attention long enough to get to that post game i love, so I’m excited for this because I already know I liked the originals so the storyline won’t bore me and the world won’t bore me as I play toward post game.
I picked Pearl because I played Diamond when the originals came out. Never got to play Platinum, so maybe if I had I would relate more to people wanting the Platinum stuf added, but since I never had that experience it isn’t a big deal to me.
If Chrissy and Francine are sisters, does that mean they have cute interactions if you have both on your island? :o
Are any other non-npc villagers related??
I mean I know they’re all npcs, but I’m talking about the ones who live on your island, not like, the Able Sisters or something.
I really only know surface level stuff about the franchise, my first game was New Leaf and I played it very sporadically and got it toward the end of the 3ds’s life cycle since I uh, didn’t even have a 3ds until then because I was poor.
