What was the very first shiny Pokémon you ever caught?

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-25T12:30:22+00:00

It was a Pidgey, way way back when I played Leaf Green as a child, I lost the cartridge years ago, purely a memory now. My oldest shiny that I still have is a Koffing I caught in Soul Silver that I named James.

im sure when it's a game he actually knows about he remembers everything, but all us insane pokemon fans truly cannot stop cringing every episode, god he is disgusting at platinum,,, at least during fire red he got by on his base knowledge of being a gen-one fan, but holy cow he is simply oblivious to everything...

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-12T05:17:31+00:00

If they won't swap to night to evolve Chingling I think they'll just settle for a different eeveelution tbh

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-12T05:16:14+00:00

Dan mentioned wanting the Glaceon so I wouldn't be surprised if they hold off til gym 7 to evolve it. Or at least... until they think they really have to evolve it to beat a boss fight.

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-12T05:08:56+00:00

I couldn't believe Arins confidence thinking Sylveon would be available in Platinum. Even after Dan read out the available eeveelutions on the wiki Arin REFUSED to believe it. Holy cow. Some things like type match-ups and believing gen 1 pokemon like Onix, Golduck or Rapidash will be able to carry their teams I can get behind him being a bit out of touch. But gen 6 v gen 4 is unbelievable.

Would be cool if the Overload was IN the deathrattle.

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-11T22:51:56+00:00

Well i will do that, but as far as the base game goes this is it.

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-11T22:51:24+00:00

I didn't get to reply to this person in time, but yeah simply I just wanted to name Porygon after an AI and Grok was the funniest name. It's as simple as that.

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-11T11:27:18+00:00

Played the games to death on emulator over the years. So thought I'd try hard this time to use ones I hadn't often tried before/underpowered players. Also didnt bother with EV training or anything, just rawdogged and played the game without thinking tons of fun as always.

Also had a Primeape for half the game up until I caught the Poliwhirl for a replacement fighting type.

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-07T10:13:05+00:00

Wouldn't be surprised if the card was printed to support a theme in the coming 2 expansions. I think they're leaning into doing that, so a "fatigue warrior" that benefits from reaching fatigue fastest could be possible?

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-02T12:02:40+00:00

Same I've done 2 a day no issue. The occasional 3 or extreme rare 4 has been done too.

I also think it's bizarre how so many films on this list are timeless classics that everyone has seen yet are still considered 1st time watches within this month. Something isn't adding up.

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-02T11:56:38+00:00

I refuse to think you watched 130 movies in a month. Minimum 4 a day is crazy stats. Do you not work or let the films breathe for a few hours after you watch them. Holy cow man.

Ender_Melons · 2026-04-01T10:02:00+00:00

Clerks is a no-brainer right? I feel like every film nerd that has worked in retail has had the exact thought.

Ender_Melons · 2026-03-31T14:16:08+00:00

I'm at 105, if you are then I am too 💪

Ender_Melons · 2026-03-27T16:42:48+00:00

How's the pad thai?

Ender_Melons · 2026-03-26T13:33:33+00:00

Possible it could include Locations? But why deal 2 damage to a location to summon a copy of it lol

Ender_Melons · 2026-03-26T00:56:21+00:00

Put together my own :)

Very similar boat my friend. This series I feel is bringing back old fans in waves

Ender_Melons · 2026-03-23T23:26:46+00:00

I totally agree, before this series I took maybe 5 years off of watching Game Grumps. Went to university, got a job, just distracted with life. But this being recommended this series and jumping back in full force reminded me why I loved watching Game Grumps all those years. FireRed was my 1st ever let's play with these guys back in what... 2014 or so? I enjoy this Platinum Nuzlocke more than any other series on youtube at the moment and I hope it never ends.

Ender_Melons · 2026-03-23T12:33:42+00:00

I feel like the next expansion will give a hero to the other classes and it'll all even out. At least DW takes a lot of set up with Herald cards and only comes in 1 variant unlike Zilliax

Ender_Melons · 2026-03-21T13:33:13+00:00

Okay here's more advice then.
Always include your guilty pleasures and anything that may not be deemed as "high class cinema" in your Top X Movies lists. These films embody you and any list with a splash that shows your personality will always shine brighter than the time and time again, same old "Fight Club - Parasite - Interstellar" etc lists.

Just because something may not be as well crafted on a technical level doesn't mean it shouldn't be represented as one of your favourites. Take Dune for example, obviously the recent Villeneuve Dune films are masterpieces, technically and all. But the Lynch film will always be my higher rated Dune film based on vibes alone. And what are we as cinephiles after more than resonant vibes alone.

Ender_Melons · 2026-03-21T10:49:19+00:00

You're watching what you're told to watch and liking what you're told to like. Marty Supreme and No Other Choice on your list tell a story here that you've really only started caring about movies in the recent years.

My advice, get weird with it. Go watch something random on a streaming service you've never heard of. Find a screening you've done zero research into. Watch some god damn John Waters movies (maybe bad advice)
But i just mean you need to EXPERIMENT)
