Pokémon Games Discussion Thread (Gotta Discuss 'Em All!)

Hey you goobers, have you been collecting the 20th anniversary legends giveaway? Or am I going to have to come here at the start of every month until December to remind you.

This month is a free Shaymin so get on it.
 
Unless I'm missing something, Salandit cannot be burned or poisoned. I can see people using this to shut down stallers maybe.

Already have the event legendaries I like (except Volcanion), already got Shaymin way back in Platinum so no.

Unless someone else has a Salandit yes :P.

So? Each event has special moves and sometimes abilities that previous even pokemon didn't have. For example Mewtwo event from the Genesect movie isn't like the one from the 20th anni, or the summer split tournament that just happened. In fact all three are different and have different stats. Why wouldn't you collect something free?

I've already raised my Shaymin a fair bit and enjoy using it, I'm not going to get another one unless it will serve a completely different purpose to my other Shaymin (like my 2 Greninja's (1 for Triple Battles and the other is my Starter)). I'd feel awful for getting another one on my current Shaymin, this is why I don't Breed in most cases.

Also, I have long memories of my older Pokemon that I can't just throw away, I feel much more happy battling and raising a Pokemon I caught in Gen III then I would with a Pokemon I just got from an egg this generation.

I can't do that, I'd rather go the hard route and improve on my Pokemon that I caught ages ago and try my best to make them adapt to the current situations.

I got to thank Super Training Reset Bags and Mega Evolutions for that too, my Liam jr. (Salamence) from Platinum can now kick so much 🤬 despite a lack of an ability to know Dragon Dance (I use Facade instead).

You're weak
 
If weak means enjoying myself using Pokemon that I've used for a long time and learning a lot about the game to adapt the best I can then I'd rather be weak.

You'll never be the champ!

*at this point you do realize most of my ranting is sarcasm?*

But there's a sad and lonely Shaymin waiting online hoping against hope that you'll download it and make it feel loved and wanted.
 
Two more new Pokemon. An ugly bear (Kiteruguma, Normal/Fighting) and a Pikachu-shaped plastic bag (Mimicyu, Ghost/Fairy).

I honestly like them, however the Pikachu one is a bit disturbing, probably isn't the case but it looks like it's wearing a Pikachu's dead skin...
 
Yeah, that ghost Pikachu is real creepy, but I'm still cool with it. I'm really liking most of the new designs so far. This generation is looking like it's going to be the most consistently good, design wise, in a while.
