I'm fairly certain Pokemon Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, and Deoxys were all shiny locked...

I just beat Giovanni in Pokemon Yellow.
Currently my team is:
Sparky the Pikachu
Zippo the Charmeleon
Logan the Sandslash
Elliot the Hypno.


Must have been a glitch because as far as i'm aware that particular Rayquaza is shony locked.

What, emulating Ritchie?
Where's Happy the Butterfree? :p

Only with those two. :lol
I'm more of a Venomoth guy.

VenoBros for Life!

Should I pick Dome or Helix? Can I glitch either a Kabuto or Omanyte later at all with Missingno?

I always go Helix just because it's unconventional (And everyone else picked Dome :lol)

I think all glitches in VC version are in tacked from originals but it must be new way to do it. As mew glitch for RBY is still in it and has a video on you tube to get it as well via the new way.

Helix. Always Helix.

Helix. Omanyte is too cool to pass up (and I'm not biased at all)

...Beedrill's better.

If by Beedril you mean Vespiquen :p

Apparently the Red Championship Edition Nendoroid sold out completely ridiculously fast and at an odd hour of the night to boot supposedly. Rather sucks all around.

Sure hope I'm paying attention/aware of it at all when the Green & Red two-pack hopefully gets listed for sale by Pokemon Center later this year. :/

Also I hadn't realized how much merch was being made for this 20 year anniversary. Kind of interested in some of the Clip n Carry legendaries.

I like all the merch, especially the plushies~
If only they included the Pokemon I actually like :lol

Word, this is pretty epic:

However, there's no merch out that interests me. I still hope we get a Figuart or a figma of Red & Blue this year.

I'd buy that :lol

When it comes to Figuarts or Figma, I honestly don't want the human characters. I want more Pokemon.

I want that, i want it badly.

Starting this Friday, you can get the Regi Trio with their Hidden Abilities on PokeBank.

Sweet~
Though I think my PokeBank subscription has run out sometime in February...

Nice...

What's an old German fortress? I'm gonna name Rock Bastille and Ice Kremlin.

Pretty sure you can't name them since they're event Pokemon.

EDIT:NVM, you should be able to since the PokeBank Celebi took your OT and ID.

Made it to Fuschia city (i can never pronounce that name) in Yellow.
I caught a venonat and named it Aparoid bringing my team number up to 5, i'm thinking of putting a Seal on the team, i like Dewgong.

Yes, since it's your name and ID, it counts as if you caught it which means you can nickname it. Same goes with the Hidden Ability Johto Starters that were distributed through Bank last year.

Huh. Just checked and it looks like that's going on till October. Good. I don't really see myself renewing my bank soon, really...

I already know what I'm going to name Registeel, Regirock and Regice though...Rattata, Seedot, and Ho-Oh. Yusss.

Looking over the Hidden Abilities...I didn't realize how underwhelming they were :lol
I guess I like Regirock having Sturdy, but Ice Body isn't that great with weather not being so prominent anymore (Though I guess it does make it a...Decent nuisance under hail), while I still don't understand the benefit of Light Metal...

Agreed. I’ll renew my bank account once I know when Sun & Moon arrive, but I'll probably do it in late October so I still get those golems.

Have a selection of old fortresses in my state:

Friedberg (Peace mountain)
Sternschanze (Star redoubt)
Greifenstein (Griffon stone)
Starkenburg (Strong castle)

Is anyone else doing the Kanto Classic? I have only lost 1 match legit, the other 3 are because people keep DCing and giving me losses.

I'm going to post all my battle videos from day 1 once I've done my 10 battles.

Round 1
X6TG-WWWW-WW3L-SYHN
Round 2
B3PW-WWWW-WW3L-SYLD
Round 3
CPTW-WWWW-WW3L-SYZD
Round 4
SYNG-WWWW-WW3L-SYR9
Round 5
EFZG-WWWW-WW3L-SYU5
Round 6
GYEG-WWWW-WW3L-SJXB

I have one more battle for the day left, but I can't find an opponent atm. The remaining 3 battles were DCed and couldn't be saved.

I just pre ordered Pokken from TRU, so is anyone else excited for this game? I am, the roster might be small in comparison to other fighters but it has some of my favorite Pokemon of all time on it so i'm really hyped for it.

I am. I want to get it on release, but I can't really afford it right now.

Nah I wait for sun and moon because it will be more fun to get new pokemon.

You guys think Sun and Moon will get amiibo compatibility or will it be in the games after these?

Pokemon smash amiibo unlock their moveset from Smash brothers.
...That's all i can think of.

There anyone with a Ralicanth and a Wailord they'd be willing to part with? I'm going for all the regis in ORAS and can't find either of those stupid fish.

So, a year on from getting the game, and I'm finally getting around to finishing the Delta Episode. Rayquaza is cool enough, but Zinnia is annoying, and the Draconids are a whole tribe of dumbasses. So they knew the world was going to die, and they told... no-one. Way to go.

I didn't like Zinnia...

Like TMs or something? Actually, that would be kind of cool. Tie exclusive TMs to amiibos.

As soon as they announce Amiibo functionality which actually unlocks something relevant in the game it’s dead to me. They can include this stuff to unlock clothes for your trainer or dolls for your secret base or some stuff like that, don't care about that, but if they lock gameplay or moves with this shit I won’t buy the game.

I don't think real life $90 TMs is a good idea.
Because the moment they reveal that 6 TMs are permanently locked until you get the 6 Pokemon Amiibo, they'll become more rare than Rosalina at release.
It'll also be the most scumbag thing ever.

Oh. I didn't realize TMs were so important to so many people.
