That sammich had something
Basically Zane Koraidon has 3 different builds rn that people should prep for
Prep into or prep against??
What's the difference
Using it vs aginst it
While facing it
Koraidon CSR (with or without Weezing)
Koraidon Lunala
Koraidon CIR (It's a new team that emerged from Japan but it seems promising)
I don't think koraidon will win worlds tho
💀
I honestly don't think koraidon will even make top 4
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
man's design really does scream poison specialist
it's giving
Definitely look out for the new guy saying ‘wowzers’ just like his supposably son
Then its confirmed
Carmine and him does have similarly PISSED face lmao
Every time i see people wear their mega stones so casually i wonder if anyone has ever tried to just...snatch the accessories 

Idt It's worth snatching a mega ring from a trainer when the main thing is the mega stone
Who cares about mega ring just gib the trian again
um actually, its a Key stone 🤓
well the man is wearing the stone on his chest so....
just do a quick passby and grab the stone 
You wanna rob a man with that face??
fair enough
brb time to rob maxie instead
that nerd won't be able to see anything on top of losing his mega 
… huh, Kieran=Walmart Silver
I think kieran is drippier
Why not just rob Wally 
Or that brat who resembles a ygo chara, who Im sure yall very much like to gut punch on
The one with Mega Venusaur
I could but ehh, man doesn't deserve it
which brat are we talking about 
i don't really watch the pokemon anime so that's why 
I~~ found a shiny Oddish I was just starting to set up lol
Too bad I need more of them
He wouldve had 37 iirc, the orange island has 4 badges
No wait you are right I cant math today
His only real issue is that he used seed bomb on a dragon/fire mon
Idk shit else about him
Sometimes I look at SV and ask myself how did we get to ps1 era graphics
A 3ds has more detailed graphics, and that's almost 15 years old
That terrain is god awful
god there's so much good emma fanart cropping up
https://x.com/honeycombrkgk/status/1948996320028418407
@warm sky
i think it's technically a spiderverse reference but that could be it too
Detective Canon vibe for me
I have absolutely no reason why
@normal cave @frosty ledge @fading stratus ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!!
她妈的!!

Dont worry about what I cursed in my mother tongue 
Dena I hate you
eh that's more miles jumping off
like shotaro is facing down
so
-2
F
It always can have more than 1 gag 
Side note jesus shiny Oddish has shown up twice while Im busy and didnt notice it

beats up Team Yell Nerds
Jasmin: evolves into Greedunt
Also caught a Sudowoodo named En't
"I'm yelling for no reason!"

Found 4 Oddish in 15 minutes lol
Combining last nights 2 thats 6
DRAGON
PINK NOODLE

Oh 9 minutes
That's pretty cool
Time to this thing… oh boy
Instantly sandwich, the sooner I find 3 or 4 of these flowers the better lol
Good ol' memories of Gen 2 and that one specific wall.
(The Lass trainer class 'Eye's Meet' theme is from the HeartGold/SoulSilver remakes)
OH just so its clear
the coat is not exclusive to gamestop preorder
You just get it earlier in the game then with the code
@normal cave @fading stratus alright, its doable
Super slow but whatever, have to finish this now
Even has a mark 
Oh right @random stream for this one
@normal cave @mighty storm @fading stratus @spice rivet Perfect H-Lilligant specimen
❗
The one from video
Well, good news, starting to be able to differentiate shiny Petilil just by their leaf colors, despite the SV lighting lol
Accidentally found a shiny Seedot, sandwich is way too op
So, sandwich is over, kinda crazy luck just now, three in row shinies with personality mark
TIL this mf spawns in the wild
man sylveon ex truly hates me, can't wonder pick it at all 
time to trade it soon ig
Sameee

I also saw the Typholosion and Misdreavus friends, But, Im pretty sure we posted it before, and the account post speed is suspiciously fast
Just sayin
Dawg have you seen Pokémon artists. They're insanely fast
It is cute tho
trying to find the past post, one sec
Found it, I was search 8 months worth of my posts 
using all the clues I gotten during and found it in Yami's
in short, thankfully it is same guy, was expecting to expose somebody
they just like to repost their own work
also, turns out I been playing Minecraft non stop for 5 months... Probably should stop fr 
and Gotta check on my shiny bingo
...Not much progress... at all, heck the flowers were only caught today
Lunala took too much of my time ig 
huh, just need h-sneasle line and the paradoxes for a line
What’s the triangle?
partially hunted
probably too easy for me if I do it just one of the multi targets
so like, I got Sprigatito, Roaring Moon(surprisingly), Scream, Tornadus and Sandygast
also, the Unown was for Free Space lol
or I could hunt one of the Unowns, prob not
gonna pretend I didnt saw nothing lol
kinda slow on finding a third Petilil, had to force myself to make a third sandwich for this line 
Okay what the frick
4 for 4??
With marks??
Watch this one be Uncommon mark to spite me
Huh, same chances, but this one hungy
@normal cave @fading stratus @mighty storm @hasty anchor … I wasnt gonna talk about finding Appletun in the wild, but the Seedot Gang got me
They seem so coordinated lol
It's their turf, back off
Was hoping you add ‘Cabbage stomper’ lmao
Files prob too large for Discord so Ill just use words, they even left the garden together before doing nothing notable lol
zane likes seeds
More like nuts 
You know you could've looked up the username of the twitter artist too right lol
I did lol, but I was trying to see if theres a- whats the term for it, copycat? Reposter??
Thief probably
I really want this 4th Petilil but feels annoying to make a fourth sandwich for one…
Imma save it for later, along with the extra Capsakid I want, I got 10 shinies in just 12 hours holy shit
Im 7 behind PM7’s in 24 hours
Oh nvm, dude got this many, idk why I was thinking 17
Collectively apparently
What if there was NEW Tapu Legendary Pokemon for EVERY TYPE!?
Check out the awesome artist Mazon Fakemon! https://www.instagram.com/direct/t/17847433322482433/
These look cute
Can we not more tapus
Miraidon is bad enough without mini miraidon running around
Same for Rillaboom and shitty Rillaboom
Also nvm, I just log back in and boom, Petilil, with marks again lmfao
Gonna miss these shiny outbreaks event 
After ZA
Bring back Primal Smeargle
bruial didnt even get to experience primals mega ray/ultra necro and xern
Sleepy time mark
peak format
Nope 
My goat was meta and now he isn't even in the game
Oh damn, shadow shield that good
I think it was dark resist berry lunala too when Z move lunala was more popular
it was not dynamic speed so lunala ocasionally ran tailwind
instead of TR
this was the usage
Cant wait to go back hunting Lunala 
Please, I even got Petilils done for arceus sake
Super unlikely to get them done quickly until the event show up
Lowkey rather hunt in UltraMoon 
also I realised
worlds in 3 weeks
wonder what will win
(the answer is always miraidon and/or incineroar)
Frick
Likely scenario, since the Shinies eventS goes till September, I have less time for Lunala unless Im lucky
For World? Lmao
yes
God, my family wouldve been STRESS for two months

Sis just traveled to another region for the first time for a live show
Shes just coming back today, rn
If my parents got the whole picture of their childrens plans
April, surrounded by thousands from sons hobby
July, mom stress bout her daughter going out of this shit hole of a country
August- which didnt happen, their sons ugly face shown to the world, hide
Spoke with Bruial once, Im too aware of myself to have that luxury lmao
I would be truly dumb if Im oblivious to that
Damn shame, too. You're a cutie.
… fuck it, what have I not exposed already
||try to be short, school ‘friends’ jokes on pairing me with a girl, I say why not, could be fate, Girl started to cry in the corner without me talking to her, I went ????? , determine to ask her what happen, saw her cry, I walk away, my ‘friends’ ask me why approaching her||

That's fucked up
Lets just say… theres a scar, and truly I wanna say sorry to her and ask what happened if I ever met her again
That's fair
Ughhhhh I hate being naive
So much
Thats hatred side of me speaking, ik once the switch flips I say otherwise

At this point pokemon chat has became Zane’s therapy office, sorry mods 😅
there's like 3 of us talking here anyway
just sometimes
Mug talks here often
Komi ans Raz too
You get the picture, plenty of users
But less frequently true
zane wanna make a predict
As for this, hmm
Inci lol
I just post fanart

GL to everybody who had to listen to people saying ‘NOBODY LIKES MEGA DNITE’ when they dont know twitter army
Cute derg 
ah yes the funny tiger of healthy meta
animals of the healthy meta
True actually 
But I also have to coordinate with 3 randos
Meanwhile, Enamorus
Never heard of that word ever
Yeah me either. Where did that come from?
Probably some modern brainrot or something

Also took me this long to realize, they dont straight up give you the Dragonite, at least I assume thats the meaning of seeing Dragonair in the trailer
💡
😮
A chance of them fixing the weird green shiny for Dragonite, literally the same thing they did for Gengar and Gardevoir @normal cave @mighty storm @hasty anchor
Go back to Pink, please lol
so true
Hmm yes a surge for every type
Not even a farfetch idea, a lot of them exist within Master EX in the form of Wishes
Pretty sure they re all just simple ‘type buff’ zone, and yes, Normal Wish/zone exist, so is Dark wish, Bug wish, Ground wish, Flying zone, dragon wish, I can go on
Its just not even a pokemon move, also, these things can stay on field with terrain and weather
The rules are fucked up imo
I am, so Unbelievably unlucky
This is exactly why I dont buy blind boxes ’blindly’, mf I can end up with same 6 worst beyblade from a random booster, I buy confirm whole set
That’s dumb
Wdy expect, its a gacha lmfao
Speaking of, Finally, you can Date sim Lusamine lmfao https://vxtwitter.com/absolutelypm/status/1949701522985812073?s=46&t=q-1AmjVFLGCcEVWLfARPPw
Ofc her date sim gift item are heels
Imma just dump these designs real quick, along with Tera getting in, my god they super hate Z moves 
I know Serena would pull on which of these lmao
Does Kris get anything nice
Since I know she’s in this
somehow
Idts
You probably knew about her Sync suit already
I have zero interest in gacha
oh ew i hate her hair in this
And thats it
Isn't that just her base hairstyle tho
Meanwhile the boys fucking went Blue Archive(another gacha with girls having halo)
Split vs down
These are like, people chosen by Arceus and receive godly buff or something
Previous 6 trainer to get it are Champions, with N, they kinda broke the pattern with these Johto rival
No, her base is pigtails
There’s a reason Kris never picks Cyndaquil
I meant more because the fire would ignite her hair spray
Btw, Lyra got more stuff than Kris has lol
You would thought the protagonist gotten more stuff, but Silver doubles in amount of what they have
Brendan wears a nice suit but still keeps that hat-sock-thing on his head.
What even is that hat supposed to be, anyways?
Two nickel lol https://vxtwitter.com/absolutelypm/status/1949700171450781995?s=46&t=q-1AmjVFLGCcEVWLfARPPw
I'm SO excited for it
there are so many accel cards just from the very few ones they showed
they are definitely making the game faster to support stage 1+ megas
And thank god for that
yeah
I only have little more than 20 pulls, but I want at least 2 cleffas
water, electric and fire all getting babies that attach from discard pile to bench
and also the energy switch
And for EX suicune to not be ass
Oh yeah apparently Magby is just fire pichu
so I think they are gonna overbalance on the trio
yeah
so like
with a bit of prediction
Idk what elekid will be then
we can assume azurill will be the same but water
Possible
definitely
She's either a baby or works like togepi
energy switch for only 3 types is also kinda lmao
why not just
...
make it energy switch?
they probably regret making dawn
Gotta make it in theme ig
Yeah what I was thinking lol
We'll probably get like 3 different energy switches for 3 types each
I'm super glad we are getting good accel cards
that aren't all trainers
deck having to run 8+ trainers was throwing a wrench at the game
this set is a massive step in the right direction
Now here's hoping the rest of the set is good too
for reference in ptcg we run 7-12 trainers in a 60 card deck
Need something to make up for Lugia
to not see too many
optimally for pocket we would only want 5 trainers max in theory
hopefully that becomes a reality before the end of the year
LOL
they fucked lugia over so bad
here is hoping lance isn't broken
bcs I got all of eevees groove but dragonite ex

I have like 6 flareon ex and 4 eevee ex
3 rainbows
But no fucking dnite
meanwhile the zard player got online 3 turns ago and is ohking you
Looker crawled so Silver could run
imagine getting hit by red card silver turn 1

they are printing this shit to counter sylveon but that didn't need a counter
Start with 2 cards and your opponent knows your hand
Good luck smile
And yeah I stopped seeing people complaining about Sylveon for a good while now
So... why
time to run tsareena too
||omg shuckle ex XD||
holy
Misty enjoyers rejoice
Guarantee sleep 💀
Doesn't work with Misty, cant use two supporters in 1 turn
also it only guarantees the first heads lol
LETS GO RIGGED GAMBA
The new Pokémon TCG Pocket Immersive Ho-Oh artwork appears to be traced from 2021 fan-art by lanjiujiu.
Entire perspective, wing shape and overall feather size are largely identical. https://t.co/K8aVrERq6r
Ok donphan ex is to promote lyra ig with 3 energy retreat cost
Shuckle is a waste of an ex slot 
Idk why hiker is a thing, you're going -1 to get your deck shuffled by red card
Or Mars or potentially Silver
Oh dark got a stupid tool
The new tool + krook + will
Why do we keep getting hand control support

I LOVE that they gave Geodude to Iwate, it literally translates to ‘Rock Hand’ 
Geodude really is great
It's the most basic you can get as far as a rock-type goes, but come on now
not as basic as nacli
Also I love how they just used like, transparency checkerboard patterns just to keep the illusion of Geodude floating
its literally rock salt
Best one, next to president of Udon
We got 3 "just a rock"!
But it wasn't a rock!
...But then again, it's not a lobster, either so
@sonic inlet
I MISSED OUT ON THE MOST BROKEN BABY
actual zard hard counter
fucking 0 energy attack that hits like a truck
What is that, like a sea wave of poorly treated people or an attack of sort that turns you into somebodies slave- which is weird the latter seems somewhat likely in anime
they provided fan art as official art by accident lmaooooooooo
by "accident"
OH yeah new set is tonight
@waxen moat oh hey its ducky
opened one extradimensional crisis for the lolz, and got this XD
In 1 hour or 25?
I think in 1 hour and 17 minutes
Oh okay good, saving the packs was right choice lol
Not in 1 hour and 17 minutes.
It's in 1 hour and 16 minutes
;p
FishingGame looks like its gonna be a fun deck
https://x.com/katsuki_delphox/status/1950016127033041148?s=46&t=q-1AmjVFLGCcEVWLfARPPw
https://x.com/pup_illust/status/1950095537757200472?s=46&t=q-1AmjVFLGCcEVWLfARPPw
30 packs
got fucking
gold lugia
3 rainbow ex
BUT
NO
FUCKING
CLEFFA
WHERE IS MY CLEFFA
New packs out, also you get 36 hourglasses for linking your Nintendo Account to pocket
I got everything I wanted from the lugia pack and a gold lugia but cleffa
I have fucking
2 dark pendants from wonder pick spam already
have yet to see a cleffa there
I can buy a 2nd cleffa, but I still want 2 lanturn
after I get cleffa i'm moving onto hooh for smoochum and silver
At least I have 2 pichu and the new eevee
another 6 pack
Two packs and ayy, I was hoping to get this guy 
lmao I didn't know it starts trying to play the animation too
Btw, Ho oh or Lugia
Lugia
Why cleffa?
0 energy search anything
Well, random mon
But still
I'm speedrunning solo mode with zard rn with cleffa sylveon and new eevee and I'm putting zard on board by turn 3-5
Dumbass deck
I got a baby in mine too but do you think they're all babies?
Should only count the ones with no energy, no?
also do you think this new eevee will be better than collect eevee? I feel like you get the same functionality as shiinotic but maybe you want to draw trainers/items instead
I do
Have been using it for a couple of hours, it's very good
At least for decks with evos
yeah for decks like sylveon/solgaleo it seems better cause pokemon are your main wincon
Nvm Needle already posted it
Oh hey, its been forever since I want this card
Wow this is the most nothing video
I cant disagree
Anyways @normal cave omg the you legit has to stare at darkness for a moment as your animation

Btw uh, its like this because I dont think I can post the video lol
Dawg there's nothing in the clip that's nsfw???
I meant the whole video
Yeah the person is a gooner artist (I heard about her from a friend funny enough)
But the clip's fine, so no need to spoiler it
I just vaguely remember her having bad takes
legit cut the whole video- yeah I was gonna post the whole thing, but definitely had to check and theres~~ definitely some images in there lol
Better being careful lol
Yeahhhhhhhhhh the same video shows they didnt know pokemon vgc been going for years, until reacting to the present even 
And they draw pokemon corn too 
I forgor
And I already said she's a gooner artist
Again, heard of her from a friend who watched like
I wanna say some kind of tier list video?
Steamed

Idk about yall but steamed corn bought from Pasar Malam are like, childhood food
honestly tho I think most people didnt know about it before like sv
wolfey plays a huge role in making the game more popular
Im in the minority 
Or majority
The correct side 
get ready to be malaysian national champion next year
I won't force you to play in premiere ball league
That much
I'll still force you just not as much

roasted is good as well yeah
If it between those two, definitely wanna try roasted, ik what boiled taste like
I generally eat it do you call it stir fried? idk
and eat it with something called mohi which is basically a drink which is obtained after centifuging curd and removing all the butter
Not a buttermilk guy tbh
I prefer lassi
Steamed Corn with buttermilk tho?
Anyway. Charred corn with pink salt and freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice...
Fuck I want corn now
Deadass thats like, Malaysian specialty
Wanna try with hot sauce, sounds like a bad idea but nothing new
That sounds really good
Gonna make my family get some corn before the week ends lmao
You see what youve done 
Works with hot sauce too
I love corn with hot sauce
Okay cool lol, hot sauce everything, even the fast foods
We generally dont do grills, if we do its satay and thats it I think
the baby
Reminds of how in Smash Ultimate the art they gave for the Claus (Mother 3) spirit was fanart from Deviantart
that tenpai list is looking clean

eevee has no braincells indeed
zard is like
a top 5 best cards ever in pocket
I called it was broken on release
insane the community called it worse than the A1 zard
Tbf the community is also losing half of its braincells
btw I think you probably play 1 cleffa and 2 cape
I checked the dkayed pocket server
so cleffa doesn't get cleffa
Everyone keeps calling the babies dogshit
ofc they are
Because they die to everything
smoochum will be a top 5 card ever
I'm sorry, I remember playing a fucking meowth just for a bit of consistency
Also they "can't see the synergy between umbreon and crobat"
and will see extreme amounts of tournament play
Yes people won't be incentivized to switch out after crobat poisons them
smoomchum was design to count tina and zard specifically
If the babies do anything better than draw 1, then they'll be good
makes it stupid easy to revenge kill them
And these ones have 0 energy cost
And 0 retreat cost
Holy
no energy no retreat cost
can use them turn 1
the best ones are cleffa
add a mon to hand
smoochum
hit for 20 for EACH energy the opponents mon has
0 fucking energy attack btw
absurd busted
Yeah
Wait, I stand corrected
Doesn't take a genius to realize that
Been out of the loop for a while
Just deals 20 fucking damage
What does it do
LOL

This is the community who loved farfetch'd tbf
I'm suprised nobody's praising emolga
Yeah
Farf back then had a niche as good attacker
Meanwhile darktina is STILL good
Certainly not for as long as they wanted it to be
the best deck is fucking
grentina
and the 2nd best is
darktina
and those 2 decks have been meta for what 3 sets now?
I think zard can now
it was already arguably around that same level
both the new eevee and cleffa are huge for it
consistency injection
btw I like playing 1 flareon in zard for oricorio
I will give you a list I'm gonna play once I get cleffa (never)
Kinda annoying that it's 3 energy, but yeah flareon works
Used it in flareon ex before I switched to the new leafeon
Oh the ramp one
I mean you can use the flamethrower one but you lose a lot of tempo to deal with oricorio
is oricorio a concern?
in ladder yes
Haaaaaaaaaaaa
Paid for 12, got half intact

These were expensive, for being glasses.
Yeah, I went from pocket to my pockets for cutlery and stuff for the house

... what does this have to do with pokémon?
rip ig tho
I abandoned a convo midway for the "I have to pick up my new glasses"
And got greeted by this once I got home
Those were 60 bucks, ig now they're worth 30
Luckily I had insurance for these things
For a set of glasses out of production since the 90s
But as I have the dishes and the entire set but the glasses...
Got further in my Sword Nuzlocke @pseudo goblet
Beat Marnie in the Budew Inn, went to the gym and caught Chandralure (Litwick) for my gym encounter.
For Kabu I used Chandralure to bully his Ninetails, Dory+Rogue worked together to take down Arcanine, and then En't one shot Gigantamax Centiscorch with a 130 rock dynamax move (Stone Miss has a purpose!) 😄
Also Dory evolved into a lanturn 💖
After the gym sure, but she totally earned it
pinging @tacit sphinx for Pokerogue gen 2 slander 
Lugia and Furret carried the shit out of this run, but Dark Void Prankster Smeargle saved it vs Rival floor 25
every weasel pokemon sucks
not so fun is it
getting pinged for slander of things you like
damn, and most of them are gen 2 mons

Cyndaquill
Wild Area encounter for after fire gym, got a Paliptoad
OH BOY ANOTHER WATER TYPE
I thought Cyndaquil was a shrew
Quilava and Typh are wezl
Cynda is a shrew ye
but it evolves into wezl
well, wezl and then badger
Ken Sugimori: “damn I’m out of ideas for the new Pokemon game”
walks past a pet store, stops outside the window
“wait a sec”
but anyways furret and sneasel lines alternate in my number 1 spot
currently furret wins
Everything in Gen 2 is so scrunkly though

even the spodr and dragonfly is scrunkly
and I like them
Name for a boy Palpitoad?
Kermie
Palpatine
I hate Seismitoad so much
@fading stratus they gave Smeargle Prankster and Dark Void
I have no idea why Gen 5 has such ugly mons
what happens if you enter the pokemon center in goldenrod city in vietnamese crystal
I could narrow it down to 4 answers but unless you didn't play vietnamese crystal you probably know the answer
and iirc you did
Never played it
I only know the trashy man speech really
and that’s Azalea Town
ah ok, mb
the answer is the game crashes, which happens unsurprisingly often in that game
okay then
name all jhotto original evolution lines that can't be caught at all in jhotto
(that's the only trivia I can come up with about the games)
To clarify: you’re referring to mons that debut in GSC?
yes
Also do you count Mt Silver as being in Johto or Kanto
Slugma, Houndour, and Murkrow are found on routes next to Celadon City
Larvitar can be bought from the Celadon Game Corner exclusively in Crystal
I think that’s it?
Why did you ask a trivia question that you can’t provide an answer for
I wanted to engage with your interest
I don't know shit about pokemon trivia for the most part

Imagine if my next encounter is hawlucha
2% of the time it works every time
Aw. Gen2's cool, though. I got a lot of fond memories of it
Reminded me to repost this, now that I'm on Johto stuff: The Johto Pokedex, updated for today's pocket monsters currently in existance
Technically every encounter you want is a 50%
You either get it or you don't 
One thing I like about Gen2 was the design direction taken with its mons
You can tell they did a bit of a shift from Red/Green going forward
Wobbuffet looked just, scary
Which is weird, cause you wouldn't think so from the anime, but they definitely designed it to be unsettling at first.
They were afraid of giving mons stats in gen 2
Side-Eyes Ninetales
With the exception of the legendaries and ttar
Which is gen 1
It introduced the divide of Sp.Atk and Sp.Def
Alongside...magcargo
Which wasn't kind to Ninetales, but inexplicably benefited Arcanine
It also benefitted lots of mon
Muk and weezing for example
Took a while for them to shine, and it certainly wasn't in gen 2
But muk got a good stat out of the split
A lot of things didn't feel finished, mostly due to the ideal of the games being something of a sequel to Red/Green instead of a standalone installment. Hence why the original 150+1 still had some emphasis put on them.
But, it worked!
I mean
Worked because they were adamant on not letting you get to the johto mons
1% encounter on many routes, the most common was Phanpy, and they all had a 50% to flee after turn 1.
And a lot of mons introduced still were very popular, which can explain how years later down the line we are introduced to new evolutions in Ursaluna, Dundunsparse, Farigiraf, and a few others
It did admittedly make them feel a good bit more special when you met one.
Admittedly some really needed the help
Say
Togetic did fuck and all until gen 4
Like, I imagine seeing something like Skarmory for the first time really blew someone's mind
Yeah
Unfortunately it's...1% and it flees
And it's right before the league
So you better find the other accessible steel type
In magnemite
Because sure as hell you aren't finding a steelix
Heartgold/Soulsilver did fix a lot of issues, so you weren't left fumbling around trying to find everything
For one, you don't have to fight your way through Mt. Silver just to find Misdreavus
And they're a bit more common
Not much
But hey
I'll take the 4% increase for most mons
Also unlike FireRed/LeafGreen, you can in fact, evolve mons that had an evolution introduced in Diamond/Pearl
God, Golbat in nuzlockes of leafgreen...pain
No Sizzlipede 
...They certainly tried their best to gate you otherwise, but at the least if there was no way to prevent it's evolution beforehand, they allowed it
So, you can have stuff like Mamoswine, Lickilicky and Yanmega, but not Weavile or Togekiss
Which is dumb
Because most Johto mons were absolutely dead weight until the gen 4 evo
Same goes for a couple of kanto mons
I mean, they aren't completely unusable.
Togetic is about the one I'd say you aren't gonna find too much success with, but everything else is fine, I guess
Mamoswine saving the mediocre pilo
Lickilicky making lickitung exist
Yanmega giving yanma a reason to have stats lower than most NFEs
Sneasel didn't even HAVE PHYSICAL STAB FOR 2 GENS
Togetic did nothing until togekiss
Let's be honest
Between togetic and any single flying with mediocre stats, you took the mediocre flier every time
Same for sneasel
Looking at the 'dex list and I'm really wondering how different things would be if there were like
I don't know, a hypothetical reimaging of Johto? Let's Go... uh, Pichu? Maybe?
Anyways, imagine challenging Chuck, but then he sends out Poliwrath first, and this confuses you cause you know he doesn't do this normally.
Basically same niche but 40 times better unless you have access to weavile
Johto just feels very alive, honestly.
Drayano did some work to make it very alive in Storm Silver
Which I really liked
Almost fixed the difficulty curve, more story and background, more stuff and of course, a real attachment to the outside world
For example, halfway through Johto, you go to Kanto for a second
If I had to reimagine Johto, I'd be similar to Legend arceus
With a focus on myths and legends in the region
It's the region with the most ruins and most unanswered questions
It is one of the first games that really put the history of the region and it's various myths and legends in the spotlight
Ruins of Alph
Sinjou ruins
The burnt tower
Lugia as a whole
Cinnabar island and the eruption
And more
You learn about the Burned Tower and the miracle that occured there after three nameless mons perished within, you hear tales about the Whril Islands and what lies within...
There's a lot there
Imo a remake of gen 2 like this, where you have to explore the ruins of the distant past, would rock
I was thinking, something akin to Let's Go
Maybe also through time, given Celebi
Mostly because I know they aren't gonna remake GSC a third time
Celebi is the time traveling mon and they did nothing with it
So nothing in game
Celebi's actually pretty well-used for these kinds of things
At least after hgss
More than any other Mythical Mon, of course
in game they did events with poopy distribution, but the events do involve time travel
Yeah, mythicals are just...there?
I mean, come on, we can't be having you seek out Jirachi for it's ability to make wishes... right?
...Actually, I'm surprised there isn't some story out there using Jirachi
PMD did that
They did do that in PMD
Bidoof's Wish is a playable story
and ties into the main plot
P sure you had to fight your way through a 99 Floor Dungeon just to get a wish in Red/Blue Rescue team
yes
Oh, you meant Travelers
explorers
Which is dumb
Like, I'm sorry, but it's dumb
is it? a wish is a powerful thing
argh
Doom Desire is in fact a wish
you have to work for that shit
And if I ever learn how to code
A wish for the opponent to explode.
And make ds romhacks
Yes, really.
I might make HGSS as first hack
shoutout to ren for making doom desire work
Because come on
Jirachi has what is the most metal-sounding name for a move. A shame it isn't any better.
jirachi is good
Imagine a retelling of hgss but you are a researcher
Jirachi probably just is the most "Metal" mon out there
The story almost tells itself
serene grace iron head is format defining in gen 4 iirc
Yep
Twave iron head
You got Doom Desire, and the other well-known thing about it is that headbanging things to unconsciousness is the best way to use it
Or slam head
Body slam iron head
nasty
With hp ground for coverage
So heatran gets cooked on the switch
And heatran is the only real reasonable counter
Moreover it's still got the whole tiny creature thing going on that Mew and Celebi had, but you know something is off about it
And then the eye on it's stomach opens up
You basically need 2 jirachi counters in gen 4
And then you know you are in trouble
Because 1 can absolutely get paraflinched to oblivion
where does machamp play into that?
well that's an encounter 😅 I ran into a galarian yamask
As insanely aggressive lead that also abused para and confusion
tank found
good luck evolving it tho
You try to tank its dynamic punch, you do manage to do it, but between para and confusion you lose
machamp is evil in gen 4
Alright galarian yamask name (boy)
And the only decent check besides tran is clefable
pharoah
ye
Wraith
But its the galarian one, those ones evolve into runes 👀?
Alright Wraith it is
Turns out it's not healthy to have 2 checks to a broken threat and both get onetapped by adamant champ spamming stab

Without also considering the rng of it all
50% to hit oneself in confusion in gen 4
Quartered speed by para + 25% to not move
60% to flinch
If you are a ghost type you get hit by gen 4 payback or iron head
one of the most weird evolution methods
I know Guts is very powerful an ability today, but I see both No Guard and Dynamic Punch, and my monkey brain just goes for it
It's just amazing to hit that punch, every time
Champ almost has no use for guts funnily enough
Yes power increase
I always figured it'd be a whammy for those expecting something else back in the day
But also...yeah you aren't hitting stone edge and dpunch and the rest every time
And given champ's lack of cc until like gen 7/8...
OH NO, Dory died 

at least I have a backup water type
I was gonna suggest Morriganne for Runerigas, given it's name of the Grudge Pokémon
But I guess that'd fit something like Corviknight a little better, given it's, y'know, a corvid
Sigurd or Loki for me
Evolved Wraith, gonna take a break for now
damn, it was that easy 
yeah just gotta have it take 49 damage and then go to a very specific rock
