    Probably some shite like Krabby.

    You can give the cute baby to me when I get SwSh in a million years. (I'm starting to get excited to get Alpha Sapphire for Christmas :D)

    Yeah Mr. Rime, so kayuuuuuuute! <3 I hope you use it on your team? Are you shield doge or sword doge?

    Thing is, however admirable it was of me to stick with Gyarados, it was fucking shit. Blastoise had a much better moveset and was a tank, Gyarados had... rage. Saying all this, I used the Lake of Rage Gyarados in HG and it was really much better than I remembered, but I think it has been beefed up somewhat since Yellow :p

    Wait, whaaaaaaaaaaaa-?! You think the flying version of the apple dragon is better?! I like the pie version...
    ii kanji
    My Yellow team was always the same... Pikachu, the 3 fully evolved starters, Butterfree and... Gyarados :bulbaFacepalm: So poorly balanced it puts me to shame... Can you even imagine the time I spent grinding in that grass outside Cerulean to level up the low-leveled Magikarps I'd pick up? WHY?!?!?!?!??!?!

    Gosh the ice larva is so cute isn't it?! I want it... Have you met the old woman gym leader yet? Also there's a female doctor NPC who looks a bit like me so say hi when you beat the shite out of her...
    ii kanji
    Butterfree was a forever Pokemon for me...

    Oh I'm sorry if I spoiled!! I haven't had a very thorough root through the dex tbh so I don't know much about anything, can't wait to hear about your new friends!
    ii kanji
    At this point I'm really not sure :p

    Me too!! I wanna play with that good little monkey <3 I think both fire and water final evos are underwhelming, and water might be the worst ever final evo... (Butterfree was a useful bug in Yellow where it learnt confusion at Lv 10 and beat Brock for me repeatedly.) I love Grimmsnarl what a cool demon! There are loads of weird and quirky mons this gen which I just love <3 <3 Mr. Mime Sr, ice moth and apple dragon are amongst my faves but hard to pick, don't know what would make the cut for a team of 6 for me!

    I'm so jealous, I've been watching some gameplay on YouTube and it looks amazing!! On Saturday I seriously considered withdrawing my offer on a flat and just going and buying myself a switch :p
    Apart from drumkey, who else do you have on your team?
    ii kanji
    What more do I need to do than lie on the beach and eat non-stop plantain in between times?

    If it's of any consolation my government sucks too.

    Omg right?! I wish so much I could play them! (Alas I am currently trying to buy a flat so can't really justify the cost of Switch + game...) I got to play a preview at PokeCen London. It was 10 minutes gameplay after 5 hours queuing lol but the game is SO GOOD!! Enjoy Grookey for me. I wanna hear all about it!!
    ii kanji
    LOL ok maybe I'll just come back to Barbados again next time :p

    Just to do a bit more salt rubbing, guess who's off this week? :cool: Don't the government give you national-holidays-that-fall-on-the-weekend-lieu days during the week to make up for it?! They suck if not.
    ii kanji
    Tell me more about the kidnapping risk...

    I mean, the weather here does suck, but I know what you mean. Truth be told, I had a magical renewal of life purpose moment last night cycling back in the dark in the cold & rain, scooting around beeping cars stuck in traffic and singing along to Battle Frontier that living in London is the best sometimes.

    How are post-holiday blues?

    Oh I’ve always wanted to go to Trinidad! The neighbour across the street from me used to drive a black cab with a Trinidad and Tobago advertising board on its side and as a kid I used to dream I was there and not in cold, grey London wasting my life at school :p

    But yeah black hole plan is a-go. When does your vacation end?
    ii kanji
    Ah so jelly. Where are you off to? Currently wishing my new job would just be sucked into a black hole and die so I could be free of it.
    ii kanji
    Lol I know that feeling. How goeth the job hunt?

    Yeah I've definitely got SM fatigue at this point. Very excited to be in Pokeani London as well which helps...
    ii kanji
    Why can't we just become, like, champions after a few hours of wandering around setting our mad animals on people 'huh?!

    The emotional follow-up in the next episode was better but not sure it 100% makes up for the trash in SM131...
    ii kanji
    Oooh I hope you find yourself something profitable!!

    Yeah, about that, don't waste your time. It was rubbish :cry:
    ii kanji
    If by 'preparing' you mean 'not preparing', then yes ;)

    Any news with you? You watching the League? My babies are duking it out this Sunday and I am feeling very emotionally exposed.
    ii kanji
    I also came back at DP after a gap from freaking OS, I'm telling you, you are not done with the franchise truly forever until you die.

    Thank you, it's good we have our priorities in order...
    ii kanji
    Fair enough, but you know I was at that point a few years back before I came back HARD. I don't believe one can ever truly leave Pokemon...

    Btw got myself a shiny new job as of August :cool: £££ (lol not really, but I can kid myself for today...)
