No shinies yet but I'm into breeding now so marvellous things await I'm sure. Got Xerneas last night, she just hopped right into a quick ball. Good bambi. I'm loving how easy Wonder Trade makes it to build daft little collections like deciding you want every starter.

I like all pokemon but I kind of like least the ones that just look like people. Bipedal pokemon that are in a humanish shape. I love *my* delphox but delphoxes in general, I do not like.

But I do really like the ones that are just random objects like Klefki and Vanillice. There are pokemon for everyone!

Xerneas is beautiful and good and my friend.

Did anyone else feel sort of obliged to pick the Kanto starter they used the first time they played pokemon? There was no way I was taking anyone but Bulbasaur. He's my good buddy.

Look how happy James is. :3:

My pokemon are in boxes by type. Dual-types go in whichever box I feel best represents them. Then I put single-types on the left and dual-types on the right. This is correct and good.

Thinking of trying a Nuzlocke but I'd want to go back to an older game for it probably. Maybe White2, I haven't played that yet.

You know what pokemon I really wish was usable? Sunkern. I really love Sunkern's design, it's such a cute little stripy chap. But it's the worst.

Holy poo poo, got wonder traded a pikachu with the pokerus. I have never seen it before and I've been playing on and off since the original Blue. Busy infecting my whole team.

I picked Mudkip (AS) and I kind of wish I hadn't because there are water types coming out of everywhere now. I might have to adjust my usual method of 'stick HMs on main party pokemon because who cares' and start actually having HM slaves who get rotated in and out.

Make sure you have it in the PC so it has pokerus forever and can spread to other pokemon whenever you want to.

Have done! Thank you for the tip :)

I love the dexnav stuff. Sneaking up on skitties is hilarious when you think about it, more so than 'I was just walking and a pokemon jumped out at me'.

Zigzagoon/Linoone is a good HM slave, can learn cut/strength/surf/rock smash, Tropius can do the same but replacing surf with fly if you need it (which you won't by endgame).

That's fantastic then, Clint the Zigzagoon is designated functionality pokemon. Cheers.

Who is everyone's favourite unevolved pokemon, not in terms of usability, just in terms of how excellent they are?

As well as my documented affection for Sunkern I am very fond of Chingling. I want twenty of them to live in my Christmas tree.

The only flaw in the entire line is the middle eye on Magnezone being red so it looks like a big dumb nose. If they'd left it as a normal Magnemite eye it'd be so much better.

Magnezones sometimes get stuck together and can't move. They're perfect.

Totodile not being able to learn all the dance moves and being part of Tierno's team is one of the greatest failures of Gen 6 :colbert:

I keep assorted odd job Pokémon in a separate box, including but not limited to: a Gallade for catching (bred for roamers), a Bibarel and Tropius as HM mules, a Talonflame for hatching eggs, a Nincada who's only purpose is to faint and have compoundeyes, a Noivern to frisk and steal items, a legion of Meowths to pick up items, and several Combee to farm honey.

That's to say nothing of my collection of Ralts and Kirlia with synchronize.

So you're saying - Pokemon are just tools to you?

...I put False Swipe on my Pangoro (Pam) and she was the loving MVP, though almost eclipsed by fellow HM slave Swanna (Signet) who was incredible in the Pokemon League, despite only being there to fly and surf me places. Ducklett's adorable but Swanna is weird-looking.

Do any of you guys have your own personal rule for nicknames? Like for example, if I give a Pokemon with multiple heads a nickname it has to have a part for each individual head. So my Hydreigon is named Joe Jack Jim, and my Vanilluxe is Celci/Faren.

I can never use the same name twice in a given game, even if I'm not going to use the first owner of a name. Pokemon are not interchangeable! They are individuals. I just remembered that when I first played Blue I just named every pokemon its species, so the name wouldn't change when it evolved.

Just beat Sun with Decidueye, Absol, Mudsdale, Alolan Raichu, Vaporeon and Flareon. I love them all but I still have a soft spot for 'Bulbasaur', the Venusaur who was my starter back when I played Pokemon Blue. I was not good at nicknames back then. Used a Venusaur in X too, he was a goddamn beast.

I'm kind of torn on Alolan Raichu. She was a cornerstone of my team through Sun but I almost exclusively used her as an electric-type. Barely touched psychic with her at all. I mean obviously Stoked Sparksurfer is the cutest thing to ever happen but I feel like I didn't make the most of her. About to start Ultra Moon and I think I'll use Vikavolt this time for electric.
