The new pokemon we're seeing are all really cool, especially the Mega Man Battle Network ones, but man I really wanna see the starter evos. My mind is focusing in on it. There seam to be a lot of credible leaks going around, what do they have to say about them?

Starter evos, at the absolute earliest, are shown the month before the game releases. So next month.

But that's if they show them, which they might not. SWSH didn't reveal them at all, and PLA only gave us silhouettes a few days before release.

But if you want a general idea...

Sprigatito becomes a tricky magician with a wand. Yes it stands up. Grass/Dark.

Fuecoco gets a rockstar theme, and apparently a spectral chicken sits on its head. Its quadrupedal, but it can rear up on its hind legs to attack. Fire/Ghost.

Quaxly becomes a carnival dancer with peacock-like plumage and powerful legs. It's described as very flamboyant. Water/Fighting.

The fact that they might not get shown at all is nightmarish to me. Hopefully they just show them next month. Though they could show the middle stages earlier, maybe.... if they wanted to be nice.
All of those sound interesting but I need to see them to know for sure. If anything this makes me a little more worried.

As much as I kinda hate to do this

I might switch my IDW Sonic collection to digital.

My comic book store just keeps being a headache with how they handle the series and I wasn’t on top of it enough: I’m missing Imposter Syndrome 4 because I didn’t sign up for the mini series pull (that’s on me, I didn’t realize it was a miniseries), I don’t have 47 and 48 (comic store just didn’t ever get it for me on my pull??? IDK what happened there) and I’m missing the annual and 30th anniversary issues.

Combine that with a huge gap in my collection of the begginning of the series and IDW not reprinting issues and yeah…Yeah might as well go digital lol.

The middle stages are the ones who'd be shown off next month.

Final stages are more dodgy. Sun & Moon revealed them before release, but XY didn't. As I said before SwSh didn't show them at all, and PLA only had silhouettes.

I'm only going back as far as gen 6 because that's when their modern marketing strategies started, that's when the games stated dropping at the same time. But since they started worldwide simultaneous releases, the final stages have only been revealed once before release.

We can maybe expect middle stages in a month or so, but final stages?

You're kidding me. That's.... how are you supposed to pick one without knowing what it turns into!?! I said this during swsh but now that I know it's kind of a pattern i'm even more baffled.

Also you're getting a lot of use out of that Ratchet GIPH.

They've been lately on a role though.

Shazam!, Joker, The Suicide Squad, The Batman.

Granted this is all matter of opinion of course.

I like that the e-Reader levels of Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 included enemies from SMB2, SMW, and Yoshi's Island.

But I really wish Nintendo bothered to change their sprites to match the game's artstyle.

What I especially love regarding the current DC films now are all the creative differences. Makes them all very different from each other.

Massive props to that.
