poo poo. I just realised I missed the 20th anniversary Arceus gift. Is there any other way to get Arceus outside of 1)mystery gift, or 2) play Platinum with an action replay, begin transfer chain?

Marge, I'd like to be alone with the sandwich for a moment.

Are you going to eat it?

If it follows the pattern Nintendo will give away codes for it in a couple months if you sign up for the newsletter

I feel like Bronzong is probably the pokemon hardest hit by the loss of Dark/Ghost resistance by Steel.

RIP the weird gimmicky Heatproof Bronzong I used to troll with in Gen IV.

late post but i think metagross was hurt more

no longer neutral to sucker punch is a pretty big deal especially for the agility set

although in ubers it has to compete with arceus water for that spot

on the other hand arceus water has to compete with like at least 5 arceus formes that are as about as good if not better.

although arceus-water was probably top 3 arceus forms before primal groudon became the king of ubers? i think extreme killer has always been one of the best ones, but my personal favorite is arceus-rock.

Couple questions. Aside from trading, is there a way to get a Feebas in X/Y?

Follow up, any chance I could talk somebody into helping me evolve a Haunter?

Shouldn't be that hard to get one via trade. Heck, if you really want one I think I can breed one up for you.

Well, if it's any consolation, ORAS has made it piss easy to evolve one, so finding one to trade for isn't hard.

It should also be piss easy to get one off the GTS. Put up any semi-rare thing (starters, Eevees, fossils, whatever), ask for a Feebas. I guarantee you'll get one within 24 hours.

I have a personal beef with Milotic, mostly because it being straight up "the Most Beautiful Pokemon (TM)" is sort of a rude way of getting people to like it?? Especially since I find it kind of whatever a design.

It's basically my equivalent of how many people dislike Lucario and/or Greninja for being Too Special, except way more of a minor deal.

milotic is cool because marvel scale is a neat ability but when it comes down to utility and bulk for a water type with reliable recovery she just falls short of that of vaporeon, gastrodon, jellicent, or even quagsire (for unaware) which is unfortunate

also competitive is cool to punish defog/intimidate users
