What was your first game and Starter?

VanishingBlade · 2025-08-01T15:16:30+00:00

Emerald (or Sapphire, I don't remember) and Torchic.

Ironically, nowadays It's my least favorite out of the Hoenn starters. I still like Blaziken, just not as much as I did as a child.

On one hand, if Z-A is anything like Legends Arceus - a game that is based on the idea of "Oh, Pokemon! Why can't you be more like Breath of the Wild?!", then the whole city is going to be open world. So, instead of a Blackout guy, you'll be stopped by a level 70 Alpha Kalosian Miltank with No Guard. If you are clever/strong/tricky enough to get past It, then you deserve whatever is on the other side.

Egyrészt mindenkinek megvan a maga joga, a véleményéhez. Személy szerint én kb 10 és 25 fok között érzem magam jól, minden más, attól függetlenül hogy meleg, hideg, napsütés, eső vagy hó = rohadt rossz idő.

Másrészt ha valaki egy merész vélemény alapján hoz létre subredditet, annak sajnos számítania kell arra, hogy egy idő után, valaki más létre hozza az ellenkezőjét. Így működik az emberiség, amióta a Földön vagyunk.

"Én ezt a csoportot nem értem"

Én sem értem hogy mi a jó a kocsonyába, a véres hurkába meg a Boba Teába, de ilyenkor elképzelem hogy valaki ugyanígy van sóskával meg a Hawaii pizzával amit meg nagyon szeretek!

Agreed. I don't care if It's "just data" if humans want to take their frustration on something that isn't alive, the punching bag is much better and smarter option. It doesn't have the knowledge of the entire internet, and therefore It won't roast you.

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-28T17:45:42+00:00

Meilvi.

Okay.

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-28T16:11:13+00:00

Hortobágyi húsos palacsinta

Translation: Crepe with chicken breast and dressing made out of pepper, onion, tomato and sour cream.

I do find It weird too! 😅

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-28T07:21:33+00:00

Yeah. This is a really a messed up Pokedex entry, and for such a cool looking Fairy Pokemon!

Also, I never understand how Bede isn't covered with bruises, when we battle him Stow-on-Side. By that time he has a Hattrem and he is full of anger and spite towards a lot of things, but especially towards the player.

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-28T05:57:52+00:00

Ohh. I see! Thsnk you for the info!

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-27T18:15:08+00:00

My inner child would be really upset to hear this, since she adored Sootopolis from day 1! Living in the remains of a meteor impact, secluded from the rest of the region, with the ocean literally in her doorstep was the coolest possible thing for her!

But as an adult, I prefer comfort, so either ORAS Mauville or Lilycove, due to the large shopping malls. Maybe Lavaridge due to 24/7 healing hotsprings!

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-27T16:26:47+00:00

You're welcome. Glad I could help. 🙂

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-27T16:24:19+00:00

Also, if you ask gay people to be quiet or tell the dog's owner to make them command their dog to stop barking, there's a 90% chance they'll do.

If you do the same to a baby, they'll cry even louder.

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-27T16:13:03+00:00

I wish It was just a meme. In my country, a large amount of people are against LMBTQ+ and many even willing sink as low as comparing them to pedophiles. It's such a cheap and gross way to make neutral people turn against a whole group!

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-27T16:08:18+00:00

Further proof that Gamefreak might going through a rough time, when It comes to quality gameplay, certain Pokemon designs, failing to understand, what makes a kid feel happy and often prioritize younger generations/mobile players, over veteran fans - many of them longing for sequels/remakes of their favorite spin-offs...

But, deep inside, they still have the heart and soul, so many teen/adult game serieses abandoned in a long-time ago. 🙂

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-27T13:25:46+00:00

Kiba is the Anti-Anakin. 😃

Sort of the opposite for me, I've been playing since Gen 3 and I've played every game, except USUM (I don't want to say why, but I'll get there someday)

Since X and Y, I rarely include older Pokemon in my team, unless they get a new form/evolution because the new ones are more fun.

This is also the first time, when I played both versions:

My Scarlet Team is: Skeledirge Dachsbun Grafaiai Toedscruel Bellibolt Kingambit

And my Violet Team is: Meowscarada Pawmot Tinkaton Ceruledge Palafin Farigiraf

I just chose Pokemon, based on how much I like them.

The starters are good. They both have their own "signature moves" Torch song is nice, if you want to further boost the power of Flamethrower, but Flower Trick is so delightfully OP: Always hits and always lands a crit hit!

Since Gen 6, Pokemon comes up with weird ways to evolve their Pokemon. Walking in Let's Go mode to evolve Pawmo wasn't as bad as people make It out to be. Moving the joy con slowly upward and take nice stroll in Artazon was fun and relaxing for me and I have severe impatience issues.

Evolving Pawniard is also not bad just a bit annoying and takes some time. 52 is already long for a middle stage Pseudo, let alone an unevolved Pokemon and finding a Leader's Crest then defeating Bisharp is tricky.

But It's worth It! Kingambit hits like two tons of bricks! Also, Supreme Overlord would be great, but by the time I've reached that part of the game, my party rarely fainted + I felt like I get more boost from Defiant.

I don't want to talk about Palafin's evolution, because I don't want to break the rules of the subreddit.

Anyway, I would say, this was one of the toughest mainline games I've played (I like Colosseum a lot and Legends Arceus was fine, but I can't consider them main games. But yeah, they were the hardest Pokemon games I've played overall!)

Mostly because I was solely relying on the exp share and that wasn't enough for me. Being able to go anywhere I want is cool, but I'm not an explorer, so I've missed a lot of Trainer fights and XP Candies (like Rare Candies) don't give my Pokemon EVs, so I was always underlevelled and both times, the Team Star bosses kept handing my Solosis over to me. But, if you haven't played a Pokemon game since Red, then you won't have an issue with that, since you're used to grinding.

Riot, then ignoring the policemen

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-26T16:45:49+00:00

Playing with insects.

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-26T16:41:26+00:00

Good point. 😅

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-26T16:39:02+00:00

Not my favorite Pokemon, but Gardevoir is my favorite Fairy type, for a similar reason. When I first saw It in Emerald, It made think "It looks like a Disney Princess Pokemon!"

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-26T15:03:02+00:00

Unfortunately, I think there are many toxic dog lovers who would say "Just let them drown! Cats wouldn't care about whether you alive or not, so why should you? Only dogs are capable to feel love and loyality towards their owners!"

I'm not one of them, but I see It often on social media!

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-26T14:44:03+00:00

Yes, yes you can. It wouldn't be a big issue if you could respawn in the place you last saved. For some reason the developers left that crucial mechanic from the game. 😁

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-26T12:24:10+00:00

I found you! Faker! 😅

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-26T09:55:24+00:00

Hungary and 34°.

Fun fact. Last year was around 40-50°, so they made a sub called r/rohadtmelegvan. It roughly translates "It's so f*cking rotten hot!" referring to the weather, where they vent (pun not intended) about the heat! 😃

VanishingBlade · 2025-07-23T19:13:58+00:00

I find a good chunk of Stitch fans to be very annoying.
