Suddenly decided I didn't care and looked at leaks. Surprise. I don't care. I like most of what I'm seeing though. The last few Alolans are a little weak though. Also weak: the fact that there's so few of them, and of the new Pokemon in general. Like, literally just one Alolan line not officially revealed? I'm pretty confident in assuming now that GF plans to pull an ORAS and reveal absolutely all this stuff before release. Not like there's that much left.

But what's there is good and what's good is good with me.

Lots of cool mons. Lots of cool shinies.

Actually, finally, have a decent amount Pokemon I want to use. Feeling Popplio, Midnight Lycanroc, Wimpod, that one cucumber, and of course Salandit.

Salandit was my favorite Gen VII Pokemon, and thankfully, I like Salandit's evo. Though I do kinda wish it kept Salandit's color scheme. And maybe stayed on four legs. It's still pretty good. I do also wish that it was a Pokemon with gender differences, just so I could have two of them on my team, but it doesn't look like we're getting any of those this gen. Kinda disappointing. After Meowstic introduced the idea of different genders having different abilities and movepools and such I would have expected them to do more with it this gen, but...oh well.

Though it's possible it's a gender-locked form like Vespiquen, in which case I would definitely use a male Salandit regardless.

I'm honestly shocked that the rumor/leaks about Lunala and Solgaleo having prevos turned out to be true, but I don't mind it at all. Provided they are really prevos and not just different forms. A little hard to know. My only worry is that they probably still can't breed, and as a living dexer that may get tricky...

Anyway, I hope to god the UBs really are catchable, because they look sick and I want them. And because if they're not this gen at most has only 73 Pokemon. Which would be kinda lame. Let me catch them all, Game Freak!

I wanna know, and nobody's answering me, is, outside of the catching challenge, can you catch any Pokémon, keep 'em, then be able to transfer them to Sun/Moon?!

No. If you played through it, then at the end the guy has you release them.

Does anyone here have a female Mudkip and female Haunter they'd be willing to trade for a female Treecko and male Haunter?

Damn!

Why does it matter? They're just the common early route Pokemon. There's nothing special about them. You'll be able to catch them like five minutes into the real game.

I think garbage frog might be transferable.


Battle Bond Chesnaught when?

Only spoiler I want to know right now: Have any Gen II+ Alolan forms been found?

Greninja is transferable, yes, but not other randos like Pikipek or Yungoos, which is what appeared to be the question.

Anyway, I just realized something about Leaks. The Legendary pre-evolutions aren't placed before their "respective" different Legendaries. Meaning it's not each Legendary with its own pre-evolution, but that they're the third stages of a single line. I have no idea how I didn't notice this before, especially since a shared pre-evo was exactly what the leaks said. The fact that there's two of them threw me off.

I actually really like this, and I am extremely interested in finding out what the lore behind it is. At the same time, not sure whether I should me more or less concerned about their status for living dex. HMMM.

Pamplemousse.

There, a word I remember but seldom say that I tie to this franchise so I can find these posts and read the spoilers in a month after I play the game. I'm a smart-smart. :D

Careful reminder to people that not everyone wants to spoiled a month before the games come out.

Most of you have been pretty good with spoiler tagging stuff, so thank you. A couple of you aren't though, so felt it necessary just to post a quick reminder.

Just checked my PokeBank account. I have 343 Battle Points ready and waiting for when Sun and Moon become compatible with PokeBank. Plus those points will keep growing until January.

Those Mega Stones won't be too much of a problem for me to buy at this rate.

...I love GTS

Oh hey Alola Persian's officially revealed now? Good.

Can freely discuss just how much I hate it now. Meowth was already my least favorite, but Persian is just ugly. Which might be the point, to emphasize how weird and harmful selective breeding of pets can turn out, but still... Yuck.

When and where?

It's on the cover to a guide book being released in Japan that had its cover art posted online today.

Serebii's tweet on it.

Ah.
I'm not exactly a fan of it.

Nermal?

Well.

At least the official art looks better than the cg model.

It definitely is an odd look, but I honestly have started to not even mind it.

I honestly expected a chubby cat. Like all around round. Like Purugly. Kinda looks to weird to me with its big old blue berry noggin with a normal looking Persian body

It's friggin Nermal.

It's ugly is what it is.

SOMEBODY GET A FULL RESTORE!
btw, when housecats are inbred, their faces are similar to Alolan Persian's, so it makes sense

Looks like Alolan Persian has a fatter head then mine.

Thanks for the nickname idea!

Idea for Litten nickname:

NaotoDate / TigerMask is what I'm gonna call it if I buy the game. TigerTheDark isn't bad either considering the color-scheme matches.

Generations episode 8 is up.

And it was f*cking terrifying.

I said it on TFW, I'll say it here: DON'T MESS WITH PRIMAL KYOGRE/GROUDON OR MEGA RAYQUAZA, THEY WILL WRECK YOUR S--T!!!

And teenagers have power over them in the games.

Because Japan.

Annnd it was the best damn episode so far.
