I’ve heard one thing that actually might point to gen 9 dropping this year. Not saying it will, but it’s a decently valid point.

Supposedly the team who develops the core mainline games, the ones who did Sw/Sh, didn’t make PLA. That was the USUM team, I believe.

But those dudes couldn’t have been just sitting around, they had to be working on something. And the standard amount of time for a new generation had passed.

Not saying it’ll happen, obviously. Just saying that of all the gen 9 theories, this is the only one that made me go
🤔
Good, let the game be worked on longer than Arceus. It can only get better from there. No need to push it out this year.

So, there's a Pokemon presentation tomorrow, huh?



Well, I think Arceus DLC is on the table big time.



I saw a vid on cut content in Arceus and one of the things was called the "Strange Ball", which looked like a more modern Pokeball compared to the ones in PLA. I wonder if somehow, someway you'll be able to transfer PLA-exclusive Pokemon from PLA to BDSP, or if it'll just be the ones already available in BDSP.

From my Gamera/Hilda crossover.

Since the Gyaos had arrived. They represented what humans had feared and thought of trolls, mindless savage dangerous beasts, since then, humans began to have second opinions seeing trolls in a new light as plenty of species have since gotten along better and working together to fight off the Gyaos threat, humans and trolls (Some trolls even offering human survivors and other species refuge in their cave homes) included as in response to these flying ravenous creatures a military organization unit had been formed being the successors of the Safety Patrol notably athletically training themselves to combat the Shadow of Evil.

I bet it’s PLA DLC, I can’t imagine Gen 9 quite so soon. I do wonder how they will handle Gen 9 when it does happen considering SwSh’s controversy and PLA’s success, maybe it’ll be a turning point in mainline Pokemon.

Before BDSP released I thought they might make it so the new Pokemon in Legends could be transferred over to BDSP. Given how faithful the remakes turned out I'm not so sure anymore.

At the very least I can see Pokemon available to be transferred into Legends while Pokemon available in other games can be transferred out for use.

Anyway here’s what the riddler has to say about the DLC. Interesting choice if true, and will definitely leave people with mixed thoughts:

Dialga and Noivern are the leads. Tailwind or Trick Room are used for speed control, then l Dynamax Dialga and wreak havoc.

Giratina-O counters Groudon and Landy-T with Will-o-Wisp. Provides priority. Does big physical damage with Poltergeist and strong priority with Shadow Sneak and can OHKO Shadow Rider.

Scarf Garchomp is a back up plan in case Dialga fails to bring down Zacian. Can also outspeed Shadow Rider.

Dracozolt OHKOs Kyogre and Yveltal, also makes me salty by missing randomly thanks to hustle.

Regidrago is a bad meme and a bench warmer. But it is very funny when I do get to bring it out.

Got another drawing done. So I have most of the week covered. I'm debating if I should take more than just Sunday off this week, cause I've been doing a lot of comic work since January, while trying to balance that with digital art for my own accounts and the like. I've got a few other things I'm gonna work on, but so far so good I guess. On one hand, I'm nervous, on another annoyed, and on yet another I'm excited.

That said, I do think some of the fan-art pieces I've done are pretty good and I really most of current work as well.

Finished the Johto Tour event for my timezone. That might have been the best event yet, no joke. Lots of random fully evolved Pokemon appearing with lower than average catch rates, Team Go Rocket being temporarily nerfed, lots of chances to catch Legendaries without resorting to raids, etc. Was able to complete my Johto Dex as well.

Shinys: Gyarados, Spinarak, Chinchou, Marill, Misdreavus, Girafarig, Gligar, Snubbull, Swinub, Shuckle, Remoraid, Houndour, Raikou, and 2 Suicune
Legendaries: 4 Raikou, 3 Entei, 5 Suicune, 4 Ho-oh, 1 Lugia, 1 Celebi

Roaming Legendaries in the mainline games; hard pass. Roaming Legendaries in Go; absolutely yes. I really hope they do it again next year for the highly likely Hoenn tour so there can be easy attempts at Latias & Latios. Randomly ran into Raikou and Suicune multiple times throughout the day and was able to capture two Suicune, one of which was Shiny! :sheep:

Already had the Shiny Legendary Beasts from the Gen 4 Zoroark event, but it feels extra nice to catch them in the wild. Also just look at the baby Suicune with only 38 CP. lol

I can’t wait to see gen 8.

I’ve been waiting to hear about it for years, I’m sure it’ll be a fun time with no controversy at all : )
Can't wait to transfer my first Greninja into the shiny new game with the amazing graphics and high quality animations!

this is satire, i don't even have my first Greninja anymore :(
