    Simple Questions / Simple Answers (Scarlet & Violet Edition)

    Hi! I just started playing Scarlet and this is the first Pokémon game I've played on the Switch. I'm only 4 hours into the game and trying not to spoil the story, but I'm not sure if these questions will be answered soon (if at all): 1) How does the game change by playing online? Are raids only...

    SPOILERS: Masters Eight Discussion/Speculation Thread

    So, how do folks think the battles will play out? I heard someone suggest it may be two 3-on-3 battles followed by a full battle? I think that could be likely as the battles wouldn't get as boring/justify bringing Ash's reserves back, which it looks like the writers have been avoiding this...

    Anime & Manga General Discussion

    What an exciting time to be a Pokémon fan! I haven't even been keeping up with the anime but I can't not watch Ash battle champions and see my childhood wishes fulfilled. I really do hope Ash battles Cynthia. I was a prime-audience member during the DP anime/games, and I've always been...

    Your controversial opinions

    Upon replaying Soul Silver, I've come to the conclusion that this may actually be the worst Pokémon game I've played so far /edit, I didn't mean to write so much but I guess I had to vent, so here's a spoiler haha Overall, I can't say I'm as impressed with the game as I was the last time I...

    Review JN065: Dragon Battle! Satoshi VS Iris!!

    I haven't been seriously watching the anime since B&W ended but I felt like I had to jump back in for this episode with Iris! It was really disappointing that we didn't get any interaction with Ash and Iris outside of the gym, the whole thing just felt so rushed and for a long-awaited reunion I...

    Which Pokemon with 3 evolutionary stages do you think should have only 2 and which Pokemon with 2 stages should have 3?

    upon its debut I really wanted ribombee to have an evolution, I feel like that was a missed opportunity (similar to a lot of other alola Pokemon tbh) other 2-stage pokemon I always wanted to see another evolution for what be mr. mime, banette, and hypno off the top of my head

    What's Your Favorite Pokémon (Generations 3 and 4)

    Gen III is Glalie, not one of the best ice-types to use in-game but I'm still really fond of it because of it's quirky design/inspiration and aggressive smiles. Gen IV is Skuntank because it's j great. that's it.

    3D Graphics or 2D Graphics?

    i don't really have a preference. i like playing gen 6/7 games because i do appreciate the 3D over-world and battles since it makes the game feel more alive to me, but the 2D sprites will always be that classic pokémon look to me as well. so to me it's a matter of improved realism vs. classic...

    Obedience & Badges

    like what a lot of other people have said, it's because the more badges you earn is the easiest way to translate your skill as a trainer, and the more skillful you are, it's likelier that high-leveled pokémon will listen to you. if it's a question of how can a pokémon understand this, then i'd...

    Does Pokémon World have Chinatowns?

    well... china doesn't exist in the pokémon universe, so it wouldn't make much sense to have a chinatown, would it? Chinatowns (at least in the u.s., not gonna speak for other countries because i don't know for sure) exist because of large immigrant populations that arrived in major cities and...

    Do you still play games from the older generations?

    yeah of course! Honestly gens III-V are my favorites. Especially in gen V where you can have so many different team combinations, I find that it's hard to ever get tired of playing that one especially (also because I adore Unova's color pallet). Also since Gen VII was very meh to me, I only...
