"Jessie and James would be so proud"
no they wouldn't, they always end up at odds with other evil teams as well as their own team. they got into scuffles butch & cassidy, iron mask maunder, team magma, team aqua, team galactic, team plasma, team flare, team skull, and even walked out on faba when he wanted them to kidnap lillie so he could use his hypno to suppress her memories.

@Outerdragon alas, go isn't an option for all of us. nearest pokestop to me is like 20 miles away right now and the only way to get to those on foot is via either trespassing or walking down a road thats... well, the speed limit is pretty much non-existent due to the lack of cops.
the lack of pokestops makes it extremely hard to even level, let alone shiny hunt.
@Ultrasmiles even more so when it's at the start of the game. i could see if it was the only way to farm them like it is with regidrago & regieleki, but it's not.
i was extremely lucky to get a shiny regidrago in under 500 kills, shiny regieleki however... well, over 900 kills and off and on soft resetting since last august and still haven't gotten it to spawn

@Azuris yes and no, kind of depends on what you're looking for and which game you're trying to find it in...
base shiny rate is 1/4096, used to be 1/8,192 before gen 6.
with a shiny charm it goes up to 1/1365.3 in b2w2, 1/512 in every game after.
ultra wormholes had the best odds out of all the games for regular mons, with each regular mon having about a 36% chance of being shiny at 5000+ lightyears traveled in a type 4 wormhole. though regular mons odds were rigged from the moment you entered so if it wasn't shiny, you could not soft reset until it was.
legendaries & UBs didn't get that buff, but unlike the regular mons you could soft reset for them and their odds were buffed by the shiny charm.
shiny charm used to be an all-around buff in odds up til swsh, where static encounters with pokemon where not affected by the shiny charm, so all the legendaries outside of dynamax adventures are stuck at 1/4096 odds.
another thing to note is that pokemon in dynamax adventures have a 1/300 chance of being shiny, 1/100 with shiny charm.
with bdsp, the shiny charm doesn't affect anything but eggs, its unknown if this was a bug, oversight or intentional.
the other methods to get shiny pokemon in bdsp is the pokerader, a successful chain of 40+ yields 1/99 chance of sparkling patch with a shiny in it, but they botched things up with it so the chains more likely to break in these games than in dppt so it ends up being a 7% chance of the chain breaking each time if you do everything right, while in dppt it was only a 2% chance
the new method in these games is gathering the dust that diglett and dugtrio in the underground leave behind until the meter under the mini-map hits 40 which increases the odds of shiny pokemon to 1/2048 for 4 mins.
so ultimately, the best way to get shinnies in this game is the ever-present masuda method with a 1/683 chance of a mon hatching shiny, 1/512 chance with the shiny charm.
rambling on...
theres also pokemon or pokemon forms that you can't legitimately get shiny yet and every main series game since bw has had pokemon that are shiny locked and all mythicals tend to also be shiny locked so some mons will take you through a special kind of hell to find shiny...
for example, mew which the only 2 methods of getting shiny where though limited time event behind a paywall in go or the old sea map event from 2005, only way anyone can get the latter is through a gameshark these days and even than its still leaves you with the 1/8,192 chance of encounter...
then you have jirachi which can only be farmed from a pokemon colosseum bonus disk which will most likely cost you over 200$ to get one used.
and even after that, it will require a constantly deleting ruby or sapphires save data & getting the pokedex for each attempt with the 1/8,192 odds.
then you got manaphy...
https://www.reddit.com/r/ShinyPokemon/comments/fdowih/discuss_a_guide_to_shiny_hunting_manaphy_optimally/
these are also the only 3 pokemon currently shiny locked BDSP.
this is including the mythicals that are locked behind event items, namely darkrai, shaymin & arceus though they might end up having shiny locks put on them by the time their events come...

@sdfkj213 i wouldn't be surprised if they publish hacking articles to get the hacks taken down

@DevinRex why are you against heels on boots? do you really think that people won't wear heels in the future? do you think that they don't do so these days?
would you rather her be wearing tennis shoes, flip flops or crocs on a planet where the mud will pull them off?
its almost like you've never seen a pair of work or military boots before

also, Other M's wedges should have never existed.

>nintendo cracks down on leakers
>leakers "lets just accidently mess up the shipping date and let other fans do the dirty work without the legal replications"

@Aerona @Thoughts

also has maxed out dynamax level, optimized stats and laughs at those who are against clones

@Fulgor_Astral this is what happens when a company goes to deep into the needless censorship bs

now we wait and see if the update destabilizes anything...

@victordamazio sadly, a lot of the stupid censorship nonsense that they started is still around.

@Xiovanni not really, the actually myth in the japanese version goes like this:
"Sinnoh Folk Story 3"
There once were Pokemon that married people. There once were people who married pokemon. This was a normal thing because long ago people and pokemon where the same.

the english version reads about the same but is less blunt about it
There once were Pokémon that became very close to humans. There once were humans and Pokémon that ate together at the same table.It was a time when there existed no differences to distinguish the two.

if you think about it, the main things that separate humans in the pokemon world from pokemon is commutation. so its possible that at one point humans all used to be able to speak to pokemon as easily as they do other humans and given that pokemon don't care about difference in species(skitty x wailord) you can see how this would be a more likely occurrence in the pokemon worlds past than our own. even more so when you take into account the N's existence, the fact that there are pokemon smarter than humans, humans that have turned into pokemon and pokemon that have turned into humans...
"Sinnoh Folk Story 2"
There lived a Pokémon in a forest. In the forest, the Pokémon shed its hide to sleep as a human. Awakened, the human dons the Pokémon hide to roam villages.

also, from the sinnoh region myth:
Long ago, when Sinnoh had just been made, Pokémon and humans led separate lives. That is not to say they did not help each other. No, indeed they did. They supplied each other with goods, and supported each other. A Pokémon proposed to the others to always be ready to help humans. It asked that Pokémon be ready to appear before humans always. Thus, to this day, Pokémon appear to us if we venture into tall grass.

this one sounds a lot like how the first trailer for legends started...
This is a tale from a long long time ago, when the Sinnoh region was still only a vast wilderness. A certain village bustled with the comings and goings of people while in the mountain and seas, Pokémon roamed as they pleased.

also...

@duffmmann of course not, after all we've already been to this region's future.

its basically the ezo to sinnoh's hokkaido

my main issue with other m is how out of character both adam and samus where as she was never that submissive to him and by the time she went down to zebas he had no control over her nor did he try to control her.

@SamirMalik miku crossover get weird at times...
like the one that made her look like she was being eaten by agumon...

@victordamazio
well, this one↓ was partly right

terry was quickly mistaken for being a muscular pokemon trainer among the kids...

@Gwynbleidd no, its too chunky.
well, if fitting in a pocket was the only to make a something considered a portable...

i think it got a tad bit faster with pokemon sword.
can't really tell d̶e̶s̶p̶i̶t̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶f̶a̶c̶t̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶i̶'̶v̶e̶ ̶b̶e̶e̶n̶ ̶s̶o̶f̶t̶ ̶r̶e̶s̶e̶t̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶a̶ ̶s̶h̶i̶n̶y̶ ̶r̶e̶g̶i̶e̶l̶e̶k̶i̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶a̶ ̶g̶o̶o̶d̶ ̶p̶o̶r̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶l̶a̶s̶t̶ ̶m̶o̶n̶t̶h̶

i've mostly just been logging in to do the missions and thats about all.

@RupeeClock which is about the only thing i use twitter for.
wish i could just send them to my email instead...

never forget that you could turn a gamecube into a chunky gba...

@Anti-Matter i just need the monkey to finish off my living dex.
don't need a shiny celebi though as i already went though the hassle of hunting one a few years ago

PEGI: no gambling.
GameFreak: lets just sneak this little gambling machine into the dlc...

the character's in that trailer remind me a bit to much of this abomination...

blizzard is nothing more then a dying animal with 2 different types of cancer warring against each other within it at this point.

he truly is a song bird with a bird brain to match, still entertaining to watch him flop around like drunk magikarp on acid

@ShadJV event pokemon, trading, something like wild area news, ect

@VoidofLight
i mean, smt predates pokemon by about 4 years and the monsters in it are based on actual mythology.
digimon was never meant to be compared to pokemon and if anything is closer to smt, especially as the forms digimon take are based on information found on the internet.

@Araquanid
meanwhile, intleons entire line is pretty much crybaby → emo → school shooter acing like he's james bond → sniper

then g-max blastoise be shooting out water more deadly then actual bullets out of its smaller cannons at random with the larger cannon being able to turn a mountain into swiss cheese

@nessisonett they did not need tictok for that, given that they already put that in the whole hitchhicking bit from journey's episode 30...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9duzkvhS7Q

@mr-duster given how masuda has been since gen 6 started, we can already most likely count the platinum improvements as being non-existent.
no battle frontier, no distortion world, cynthia being made easier and everyone else being made easier, early exp share or something else that makes leveling far to easy before the end game, no player own villia, the story being dumbed down, ect
hell, wouldn't be surprised if areas like new moon island and flower paradise end up being non-existent.

guess we'll find out in 4 days if ueda managed to stop masuda from making the same mistakes again or not

@Franklin must have been a sucker punch, given how effective it was...

@mariomaster96 if only it was just ILCA, then there would be more hope for it...

@NEStalgia also, pokemon gets weirder with it

well, rip game corner(again)
odds of the battle frontier being in it have decreased as well

@Tasuki they'll only go after the ones who are stupid enough to use the save that their doing this online.
either that, or the switch is going to get an update detects and bricks switch's that have one of those plugged into it.
ultimately though, they can't do anything about the shiny pokemon that where made from this thing and traded off for the very same reason why they can't do anything about clones or generated mons. so long as the pokemon is legal or legit, its safe from being detected and purged.
in any case, i'm not getting one. instead its back to wondering from den to den to try and find a shiny vaniluxe while hunting a shiny trubish in pokemon x...

"task force" is a weird way to spell trash bin

its still sad that a super game boy/gba player wasn't made for ds games with the wii nor one for 3ds games with the wii u or switch.

Main Series: Silently listens to feedback and adjusts next gen

@ThatNyteDaez well, i've also had horrible luck with this game. my win rate is around 50/50 right now

@ThatNyteDaez gengar is only a threat when its not stopped early on, unlike snorlax which is a threat the entirety of the battle

@Noid >implying that permadeaths hasn't been a thing in digimon since the first v-pets

@Abeedo once a year is a bit off, there where 3 or more in 2018
4 in 2019
1 in 2020
1 so far in 2021
if it is down to just once a year, it means they mostly given up on trying to stop people from hacking their 2/3ds's(though its not like they where ever really able to stop it to begin with)

@AFCC it will most likely take longer then that given that more pokemon are probably going to be eventually added and odds are things that curbstomp everything currently will be eventually added in behind gems

(effective from 1st April 2022)

@EarthboundBenjy that seems like its going to be the fate of the 3ds. just think, within the next 2 or 3 decades, only pirates will be able to get DLC on the 3ds... though by that point most of the popular things will have already had a remake or 5

@GrailUK even the early 2000s would be more preferable...

and so it begins
