Look I don't wanna bring politics into this thread, and if this starts some kind of argument you have my permission to deck me in the nose at least twice.

But I gotta share this.

Trump is selling NFTs.

A former president of the United States is selling NFTs.
Why am I not surprised he would be that?

The final boss in Unleashed is Bull**** for making you fight the Egg Dragoon over and over again if you game over on it. Like.... god damn this would be so much better without lives because then I, at least, wouldn't have to re-do this long tedious chunk of game over and over again as I die to wonky physics.

The upcoming Amazon God of War series should've been animated. Far more potential there.

Animation in the style similiar to Invincible or NetFlix's Castlevania.

I finally obtained the String Cheese mon.

And thus, my team is now:
Quaquaval (Donald)
Garganacl (Rock Golem)
Scovillian (Caprisun)
Espirita (Flo)
Gholdengo (String Cheese)
Closdire (Blacksire)


Edit: Yo this ability is busted as ****

I am not gonna do Sonic Unleashed's final boss unltill I let some time pass because the way it's designed is genuinely irritating. Hopefully it eventually gets a modern port that adds some quality of life fixes or at least is on PC so that modders can add them themselves.

Seriously, the best part about Sonic games being released on PC is that if SEGA makes a flub the fans can fix it and at least make the experience passable. Wish they started doing that earlier.

CAUGHT ANOTHER SHINY!

Ain't gonna say what it is, because I'm only gonna get a very certian reply lol, but probably my favorite shiny I got this far. Doesn't hurt it's a Pokemon I really like.

And that makes three full odds shinies this game already. For reference I think my last one before these was Raticate back in HG. I suppose seeing all the mon in the overworld now is gonna heavily increase your chances of spotting em, lol.

Thinking about it.


How am I gonna even get the Paradox Mons?


I 'think' you can crash in someone else's Violet game via the hook up function and they'll spawn for you?


....and then Koraidon....
Just trade.

Muscle Lady Eri was easy as hell.

You would think you would hear a lot of chatter from Team Star via Pokemon fans. From both a design standpoint and personality standpoint they seem tailored to make fans go feral but... no, silence.

Everyone's too focused on Arven, Nemona, Rika, Larry and Iono.


Like, remember when Sada and Turo were the big deal? It's been kinda quiet since.

This might be a bit of a hot take (maybe not, I dunno) but I think the Team Star storyline was just a horrible mess and the way they talked about bullying was almost offensive.

Mela was bullied for being "too cute" and Eri was bullied for being "too pretty and popular". Suuuuuure. It's the popular kids who get bullied the hardest. Nevermind that they have other traits they'd get bullied for instead but Pokemon doesn't have the guts to go there.

Oh but bullying doesn't happen at the academy anymore because they were all chased out by the threat of vehicular assault. Because bullying isn't a complex issue or anything and it's super easy to eliminate just by singling out the "bad kids".

I mean I don't expect pokemon to have a complex morally gray storyline or anything but man, it still upsets me. Especially considering my own experience with bullying.

I will say that


Geeta is probably the weakest champion story-wise since Diantha, and is hands down the weakest Champion teamwise since Gen 2 Lance.

How did people end up overleved for this game I'm legit like 8-10 levels behind every boss fighr right now.
The level curve is weird.

Like

I'm constantly 5~ or so levels above each gym, but every 'end-boss' for the story arcs way overlevels me. I was always overleveled for the Gyms and Titans with only the Team Star cars giving me any issue, and then I fought Arven after the Titan storyline and was like "Oh, that's a level 61."

Grusha never hits level 49, in fact is the lowest level of the "objective" quests. It's heavily encouraged to due the league first because Grusha waa at a lower level then Eri (55) or the two level 55+ titans you had to fight in a row.

So naturally the Pokemon league starts at level 57 and goes up to the 60s.

At least the level curve for as weird as it is, ain't as bad as Gen 1's.


Looking at you Sabrina, the 6th gym leader, with level FIFTY Pokemon.
