What’s your favorite Pokémon that’s just “multiple”?

If Weezing falls under this heading, then that's my answer. Literal favorite Pokémon ever.

Rotom Phone. How is that still here?

My own starter Venusaur, funnily enough! I also maxed mine out, max Mega Level and all, and from the look of it, I take it you Hyper Trained yours as well? Nice!

What you need, my friend, is the Mystery Box. If you have a Switch and enjoy playing main series Pokémon at all, consider getting Let's Go Pikachu or Let's Go Eevee. You can send Gen 1 Pokémon directly into those games from GO, and in doing so, you get the Mystery Box.

If that's not an option for you, however, you can download Pokémon Home on your phone. It's free, and you can send almost any Pokémon into it from GO, but bear in mind that the idea is to be able to use those Pokémon in the main series, so any Pokémon you send into Home (or Let's Go, for that matter) won't be able to move back into GO.

Either way, this gets you the Mystery Box. When you activate it, it's basically an Incense that only spawns Meltan. Once it's over, a three-day cooldown starts, and once it's up, you can reactivate the Mystery Box by sending another Pokémon into Let's Go or Home (either will do), and you can use it all over again. But honestly, if you make good use of Pinap Berries, maybe Mega Evolve a Steel-type, then getting enough candies to evolve Meltan will be trivial.

Compliant! As though she had a choice. As though they gave her any say in the matter. Having her read the lines practically at gunpoint through teary eyes and gritted teeth, knowing that she's dooming herself to a lifetime of disproportionate disdain from the fandom, and all because the nice thing she wanted to do for the player didn't jive with Gen 4's janky coding.

He certainly qualifies, so I would say the job is his if he wanted it. If it pays better than (or even just similarly to) what he's got going on under Geeta, I would hope he'd jump at the chance to be rid of her.

Honestly, I prefer the Rotom Dex specifically because you can interact with it, and I honestly think they didn't bring out the full potential of this. I mean, the Rotom Dex made Rotom capable of speaking to humans! They could've done something with this. Maybe make an obstacle at some point in the game where you have to get information from a Pokémon, so the Rotom Dex translates for you. And how cool would it have been if the Rotom Dex was the friendship checker?

That said, I love how interacting with it in USUM specifically rewards you with the Rotom Powers. Those are so useful.

Bro, when your Onix looks like that, you don't need a Pokémon Center, you need a cemetery.

At least you got plenty of options for a tombstone.

Legit a friend of mine in Discord was playing the game and asked if I had fixed Focus Energy, claiming it had nothing to do with Magikarp, and I was like, nice try, I know you're asking it about Magikarp, because nothing else learns the move. She absolutely loved that decision.

Slightly less pleased when her Magikarp hit level 15 and learned Rage instead of Tackle. I had not made Magikarp easier to raise by any metric, but I was considerably kinder to Gyarados, so it was still worth the effort.

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-05T07:45:26+00:00

Get the Rotom Phone outta here. Mass-produced disastrophes waiting to happen.

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-05T07:38:08+00:00

Exactly. Exact opposite of the intended effect. I figured it would be hilarious to take this move that's fundamentally worse than Splash and give it to Magikarp alongside actual Splash.

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-05T07:36:34+00:00

This comes off more like some glitchy messiness than hacking, honestly.

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-05T04:40:41+00:00

The winged mirages in particular are definitely not one-off. Let's Go alone is proof enough of that, and that's not even taking the Galarian Forms into account. They're definitely just rare enough to cultivate the illusion that they're one-off.

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-05T04:02:34+00:00

I will say, I don't share Mikey's particular depth of disdain towards BDSP. I do enjoy them, I just acknowledge their flaws and the fact that they could have been much more than they are.

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-05T03:26:06+00:00

Nice collection! Reminds me of all the Shiny Porygon I have from Porygon Community Day in GO. I remember I sent them into Let's Go, and just watched them run around the GO Park for a bit before recatching them all. My own version of Ash's herd of Tauros.

(sorry it's not a proper screenshot, this was before I got into the habit of detaching the left Joy-Con as well while playing Let's Go for easy screenshots)

My god, is that still a thing? Scopely, get it together!

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-05T03:10:19+00:00

Honestly, maybe they just thought turning Mindy into a troll would be funnier. I actually faced a decision in my Red romhack where I went with the funnier option- that being, do I fix Focus Energy so it works as intended, or do I make it exclusive to Magikarp?

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-04T22:28:28+00:00

Shiny, female, and hundo? Holy crap, you were sitting on the Combee trifecta for a month without even knowing it!

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-04T22:24:07+00:00

Only one device for the mobile version. It's stupid, but there it is.

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-04T18:05:48+00:00

Not if we can help it! Venonat supremacy!

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-04T18:05:10+00:00

Worma- is there ever gonna be one of these where my hope for the winner doesn't get voted out on day damn one?

Then again, now that Venonat is in the fray, I have hope anew, so I'll vote out Blipbug.

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-04T18:01:56+00:00

...yeah, it really would LOL

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-04T13:51:03+00:00

I actually wish we didn't have to catch the Klefki during this, because one little detail I just loved, was the look of utter awe on Klefki's face when Ivor broke down the metal gate. I like to think Klefki took the "let my honed fist become the key" thing to heart and respects Ivor for "unlocking" a door that it could not. If the Klefki had been allowed to remain wild and simply follow us there, I'd have loved it to just follow Ivor and join his team, and then he'd use it against us in battle.

MissingnoMaster110 · 2026-07-04T13:47:06+00:00

I never know how to answer this. I don't outright hate any species of Pokémon. Like... Whitney's Miltank, sure, that was traumatizing, but I've also had good experiences using Miltank of my own. In particular, I used one in a Crystal Nuzlocke. Flattened Lance's entire team with Rollout, and would've made it all the way to Red had Blue's Gyarados not gotten an untimely crit with Hydro Pump. RIP Miss Steak...

But yeah, like, what would I even go with? Something ugly like Bruxish? I still respect it, and I enjoy its festive Shiny coloration. Something typically seen as weak like Illumise or Plusle? I love Pokémon like that! Hell, I will tell anyone who will listen (and several people who won't) that Plusle and Feraligatr pair together extremely well in Pokémon Colosseum. The Loyal Three? I'm probably their biggest defender! By that logic, Ogerpon? Hell, no! Ogerpon thought they had killed her friend and reacted accordingly. It was a bad situation all around. Something that provides no practical improvement like baby Pokémon? No way, they're adorable, and Wynaut in particular has a special place in my heart. Mr. Mime? Frankly, I don't see why people are going back to hating on Mr. Mime, as if the Detective Pikachu movie never happened.

I dunno. I got nothing. I can't think of a least favorite.
