i thought the gen 6 friends were fine, just they didn't appear nearly enough to matter. but maybe in pokemon switch we'll finally have trainer buddies who are always with you, in true misty and brock style. they go and do their own thing whenever you enter a route so you can catch pokemon on your own of course

Probably for the best, since it wasn't a very challenging boss fight

Interesting concept, perhaps, but lackluster execution

It was probably the hardest trainer fight in the game up to that point. Largely because Pokemon is not hard, but still.

I wanted to catch that thing as a pokemon, minus the lady inside obviously. It looked weird and neat.

I genuinely liked all the gen 7 characters, they were all enjoyable and good kids and a step up from the gen 6 gaggle.

That's a really low bar to clear, but yeah, they definitely clear it. Lillie and Gladion are good though, even beyond the comparison. Hau is...okay. I think I still prefer Cheren and Bianca (and N) though.

SyntheticPolygon
Dec 20, 2013

Hau is good because he gets to have like vaguely interesting relationships with characters outside of the protag, which is something pokemon characters didn't really get before gen vii except in very rare cases like N.

His friendship with Gladion is extremely good and really helps both their characters and it's great.

Hau owns. He just wants to have a good time, but he's not stupid. Him and Gladion roasting each other during the raid on Aether Paradise was very good.

I'm just exploring now and am getting a lot of character exposition. I thought I was about to see the first PokéDad since Norman because Rotom mentioned him. Instead I got a Meowth event.

Yeah it's great but really it's just him roasting Gladion. Gladion's too serious for some good roasts.

Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?

gently caress!

do you even go to the nihilego nest? Or what happens around that point?

No frozen pokemon either?

So how much exactly is changed in this game? Is it more along the lines of stuff like Yellow/Crystal/Emerald/Platinum or is it basically a whole new experience like in Black/White 2?

It's accessible through the Ultra Wormhole. I've been there 3 times already and there's been one there each time.

Those are still there, but not really mentioned.

I saw something in the text dump but haven't triggered the event yet.

The Houndoom shirt is already in Sun and Moon, I'm pretty sure. It might be a version-exclusive, but if you see someone wearing it in Festival Plaza you may be able to get one from them.

There's a switch to use the Circle Pad for the Ultra Wormhole inside the Gamefreak office.

I've found the first legendary Pokemon and they seem to randomly appear as the Pokemon on the other side of a wormhole. The game will pop up a message saying there's something there unlike with a standard Pokemon.

I'm guessing they didn't move the move relearner from it's incredibly stupid position in SuMo.

Move relearner is in the same spot, but now there are some tutors on the new beach areas. They use BP though so enjoy Mantine surf or transfer a lot of stuff from Pokebank.

To be more specific, any Rockruff that has Own Tempo can evolve into Lycanroc Dusk Form. That said, it can't be obtained normally, and only the event Rockruff and Rockruff bred from it can have Own Tempo.

I got this for a Ratatta on GTS.


If I recall, its one of the very few Pokemon that can have more then the standard 3 abilities (two regular and a hidden ability). Most of those that have more often have different forms as well (Like Basculin or Meowstic).
