HOME dataminers have found a weird cry that's very similar to Jynx's, people are thinking this means it's getting a regional form and evolution
I did hear that before. Probably unlikely we'll learn more about it this Thursday.

That sounds like cut content considering they treat Jynx like the forgotten child of the Gen 1 pokedex.

I hope we got a few more Galarian forms besides Slowpoke. Jynx is definently a good contender for one. Wouldn't mind one for Tauros as well.

Edit: also, I'm getting Pokemon Home. I'm not paying for premium, but having a separate system for boxing would be helpful.

Ledian could really use something, it's been sitting at nothing but a 390 BST for 7 generations now. And if Ledian gets something, it would make sense for Ariados to also get something.

Any interesting rumors for Sword/Shield expansions?

I'm hankering for some.
Nothing too real seeming but there’s this which at least has interesting concepts:

Also that image isn’t meant to be the leak itself. Just one posted with the text rumor

It's supposed to be able to do thst in the future, but it can't right now.
Eugh... That's the only reason I got Home. Lmao

Guess it's not too bad. I didn't buy the premium plan, so I'm good.

Edit: just got Squirtle! I didn't know you got free stuff in Home!

Edit 2: should of paid more attention to this thing. It's actually pretty cool.

Bruh, I actually bothered to play an online tourney for the first time.

Get to final match, go to sudden death. Because of the spawn positions, my opponent was completely obscured by the GO! at the start and managed to win because I had no ****ing clue where they were or what they were doing.

EDIT: Won the next one.

Really love the banner art they do for these.

who is an overrated character liked by Smash fans, hated by FE fans.
Not hated by FE fans. He's a pain in the ass in his own games but he, as a character, is likeable enough. Not his fault that Intelligent Systems botched him in Binding Blade. He's very useful in that game sometimes. Other times? Whoo boy.

For Pokemon Home, I just payed for one month of premium just transfer my living national dex over from bank. Yeah I know I can't use over half of them in any games right now but honestly most of my collection just spends 99% of its time sitting in boxes anyway.

'Tis a shame I'm missing a bunch of the mythicals, or else I'd probably have that special Magearna.

The only thing I want from Pokemon Home is access to my Pokemon Go roster.

I have a bunch of shinies, including three shiny Ralts.

If my earlier post didn't make it obvious enough, Ledian is one of my favorite Pokemon and I dislike how little attention it gets. After 7 decades of disrespect...

Roy is about as milquetoast a protagonist as you could ever imagine. Just about no time goes into his personality, his beliefs, his struggles, whatever. He is just a walking piece of cardboard.

What little development he is given is locked behind character dialogue that is limited to 5 conversations per PLAYTHROUGH, start to end. And when you do read about it, it's about as standard a game protagonist as you can ever imagine, "I wanna do the right thing," "I get sad when people die," "I hope I'm a good leader." It really does feel like he's Marth with less charisma at times.

Doesn't help he's a deadweight liability as a combat unit either.

i'll leave him alone if he gets good stats like literally any other lord. even marth is better than him. marth.

i'd rather take byleth's lack of character than whatever roy's character is supposed to be

Hot take: if everyone on earth spontaneously changed sex, more non-trans people then would admit it would be completely fine. Not a majority, just more then would admit it.

I shouldn’t be allowed to be on the internet at midnight.
I’m curious Snake, what kind of responses or reactions do you expect us to have when you post stuff like this?

Morning all how's everything?

Me? Its Sunday so relaxing expect me to probably be here almost all day. On another hand this week will be exciting. Gonna go see My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising on Wednesday and the possibility of an General Nintendo Direct this week. Even if no FP6 still things to hopefully look forward to such as rumors of Paper Mario 3 (Going back to its original gamegplay).

I finally watched Sonic Movie and it was super fun.

I'll enjoy seeing this turn into a franchise.

If the way Butterfree and Beedrill were treated is any indication, don't count on GF to treat a duo equally, as nic as it would be for those two Johto bugs to get something.

'Tis a shame I'm missing a bunch of the mythicals, or else I'd probably have that special Magearna.
Which ones? I might have something left.

I wasn’t thinking. It was midnight. And I apologize.
I’m not looking for an apology, I’m just trying to understand your logic a bit better.

Do you have any internship or volunteer experience? If not try to look for some opportunities like that in your area, that’ll help boost your resume.

The whole Marth clone thing isn't a bad comparison when a lot of FE protagonists basically just copies Marth's personality.

Not kidding. Alm, Seliph, Eliwood, Eirika, and Micaiah all have similar personalities and traits. It's so tiresome a cliche to where they're the worst part of the story most of the time. It doesn't help that they all speak the same way in noble politeness. It's so alien and inhuman.

Here's a fun game. Take generic quotes from all the characters I listed above and have a random fan guess who said what. I bet they wouldn't get it first try.


1. "I am here on a mission... I will not be stopped by the likes of you!"

2. "Under your rule, many people have suffered and died. Now you must face the consequences."

3. "They and countless others, lost to us— tainted by your precious power."

4. "I'm sorry... I let you all down..."

5. "If you are determined to block our progress... Then you shall be moved!!"

6. "How many innocent, defenseless people have you ordered killed...just to lure me here?"

Go on. Take a guess. I'll be keeping track. Answers are below.

1. Eirika
2. Seliph
3. Alm
4. Roy
5. Eliwood
6. Micaiah

Just guessing at my own midnight thought process, I’m pretty sure I just thought it and was like “let’s put this on Smashboards and see what happens”.

So, while I was playing Undertale, I discovered that in the Switch port you can type up to five hundred letters in Mettaton’s essay prompt, whereas you could only type as many letters as the text box would hold in the original.

Even with all that gibberish there, Mettaton still thinks it’s good enough to make a good book.

Isn't FE characters in general are based off archetypes based off previous characters?

Like you have the Lord, the one you described just here that started with Marth, then you have the Camus, who is like a anti-vilain that are polite to their enemy & allies and is quit powerful. Then you have the Casanova Wannabe , who as it's name imply, flirt alot with other characters but are still good guys after all, and so forth.

I'm not expert of Lord characters to tell which are the better one, but I do know that Dimitri does follow it....and act as a deconstruction of said trope, which is why, among many other reasons, me & other folks love him, but I think one or two Lord characters who play it straight must be good on their own, nah?
