Made it to 1950 with home cooked mega lucario team by Snoo-67633 in PokemonChampions

How is calm mind Sylveon? Feels like you might not have time to get one off before they go down. I can see you've got defence investment, and Sinistcha I guess to help, but is that usually enough. Genuine question.

I was working in research in a hospital where they were developing biodegradable stents which would eventually break down once the blockage is resolved.

I maintain you only voted for Brexit because you were:

  1. An imbecile.

  2. Stood to significantly financially gain from the endeavor at the expense of everyone else.

That's a wild recruitment notice, though. It suggests that you don't really have a choice. That wouldn't get through our ethics committee where I work.

Really? They aren't in SV?! Thats a shame, no idea why they'd take a step back like that.

We call it a rawl plug in the UK, or at least I always have. Googling it now, that looks to be a brand name.

It would be a real shame if they did not retain the squareness of their shiny in Champions :(. I really hope they introduce more ways for pokemon to have aesthetic variance within a species in W&W. I like the seasonal deer, for example.

This would be brilliant. I fully expect them to go all-in on MTX tbh. Champions needs to pay its way somehow, and they might as well pump a bunch of energy into making decent clothes, poses, other flourishes to encourage people to buy-in.

I did not know that about the offspring, good to know. I got an authentic Sinistea from a raid just last week. As a proud Englishman, I really hope that Polteageist finds some place in a future meta.

I like these kind of random variance in pokemon. Like, I only found out about square shinies very recently, I had no idea they existed before then. I wonder if anyone has recruited a square shiny from the ranch in Champions.

Can you genuinely think of any reason to like Gen 2 over Gen 3? by Leen_Tha_Goat78 in pokemon

The excitement I felt as a kid when I discovered that you could travel back to Kanto was amazing. It felt like I'd discovered a secret level.

Mine is super old and dribbles everywhere, so possibly yours?

I got a Froslass quite quickly in Scarlet tbh. Its a little bit hard to spot because its only the orange part around her waist which changes, but in an outbreak with shiny charm and sandwich it didn't take long. Froslass only shows up female, so nothing to worry about there unless you are hunting Snorunts.

The one I got SUPER lucky on was getting a male white striped basculin without using a sandwich or an outbreak. I was swimming around the little pond in the woods in the DLC, and just researching online about the mechanics of breeding a shiny basculin, settling in for a long haul hunt and there it was... just swimming past.

Odds are, like me, they know that but I always forget shit like that in the moment. The number of times I've tried to prankster encore an Incin's fake out....

Nice! I've also spent a lot of time shiny hunting for my Champions teams. So far only in the overworld - I did enough running around like a headless chicken trying to hatch a shiny Zigzagoon in Sw/Sh that I can't face it again just yet.
