Don't waste king's rock on Politoed, you can catch one. Use it on Slowking

No, it's in Malie Garden or whatever it's called on Ula Ula

SOS from any pokemon, in rain
Then that saves me the trouble.

Now to find an extra Slowpoke back in the first island. That way I can have a Slowking to go with my Slowbro (Or Sis since its female).

So now that I'm back from quoting my Azure x Swamp fanfic.

Happy Switchmas Eve everyone.
Ooo.

Happy Switchmas Eve to you too.

You can find them around Poni island, correct?
I know there's no relation whatsoever, but every time I hear Poni Island I keep thinking of something else entirely.

I swear, Shiny Gengar looks no different than normal Gengar.
It seemed to be less and less noticable each generation, but it's actually supposed to be a grayish black while gengar being a vibrant purple. This especially apparent in the gen 3 games, but normal gengar got darker.

Then again you can get King's Rock from Poliwags/Poliwhirls if you're willing to Theif while going for Politoed...

I managed to get a King's Rock before a Politoed showed up so I was able to just evolve a Poliwhirl...

So Gengar looks like Clefable's shadow.

And shiny Gengar looks like Clefable's shadow's shadow.

Bulbapedia says the only thing that has them are wild hariyama.

Which, I didn't know anything had them

Edit: Serebii says there is a 5% chance. From Poliwhirl

I just want to mention

I spent hours and hours trying to get metal coat from magnetmite and I got a shiny magnetmite without the shiny charm before I found a metal coat

And it has the same odds as finding a king's rock on poliwhirl

I did find a politoed faster, despite it being said as "1%"

Serebii lists the Poli's, Slowbro/king, and Hariyama as wild hold items for King's Rock...

Shiny Gengar looks damn cool in the anime, the drawers actually made it considerably different.

Sometimes hold items are annoying...such as Razor Claw...

Was grinding for a second Moon Stone from the Jiggs and Iggs, but I managed to get one from Poke Pelago eventually after giving up several times...

Shiny Mega Gengar is about that color

I kind of wish they'd retcon some of the shiny colors to make them better

Specifically since the new ones are different than the old ones

Especially the ones that are an ugly yellow-Green for some reason

And all the water types that just turn pinkish purple...

Don't get me wrong, with the Wii and Wii U there ain't no excuse, but with the Switch I kind of understand; the thing doesn't look thick enough for an ethernet port itself. Might still have one in the dock, might not, but - to us online play enthusiasts' chagrin - it's looking like it's targeted at primarily WiFi use and that's unlikely to change.

People gonna put up a fuss, sure, but they have three gens deep now and I think Ninty has clearly shown they don't give a hot damn.
I figure the tablet wouldn't because I can't think of a tablet that does, but the dock itself? Thankfully I don't really mind not using a wired connection for my consoles, but at the same time, I'd like to have the option *without* paying for a separate adapter.

Oh you role playing now? :137:

...nah but really. I'm juggling a couple candidates right now - in order of likelihood, something something Rebels, something something apocalyptic, something something Indian Malayalam horror thriller film, or something something craft spirits.

In retrospect the adapter could use micro-USB; I didn't look closely enough to verify.

If it did it might also be usable by the undocked Switch and that would make perfect sense.

I just finished watching Blade Runner for the first time. It's one of my favorite movies now.
Simply put, I think it's a masterpiece! It makes me feel like a film student just watching it.

Everything works well. There is so much purpose in each scene, not a single second wasted. The cinematography is brilliant, ahead of it's time by far. I had to keep reminding myself that it was made in 1982 (The ****? I thought it was made in 1988 at least!). Each set has a distinct design that fits the Si-Fi Distopia Blade Runner is trying portray and the music OH the MUSIC! It really made the scenes. I gotta buy the soundtrack. It's a need like air. Actually, I don't have all night so basically everything is delightful in the movie. It's probs one of the greatest (D.J Khaled) movies I've seen and I could probably write a full review analysis about this movie.
What's slightly strange is that I don't even watch movies that often. This is a anomaly for sure. I love this movie.
A bonus is that the game Snatcher will make more sense if I play it.

Soooo that was my day.

What grade did you get on it? Did 'ya boy pass?
Well, yeah. A. It wasn't my first time seeing the movie though

The only other thing I remember from that class though was the teacher kept on talking about how he was going to show Citizen Kane in class but never did

And how I had a crush on this girl in class, and even though I was given the perfect opportunity to say something (Me and her had to wait alone together for something) I never did

To add to this, Magearna's movie is pretty good imo. It's light but it flows and works well.

I liked it a lot, and the battles are pretty good as is the plot. Even Team Rocket is handled really well in it.

I thought so. Also, I feel for you man, Citizen Kane is apparently a good movie. I also about the regret of not making a move, I guess.
