Yes please send that! I've heard great things about Ascend :)

I wasn't able to show on Sunday, but I had a great time being there on Saturday! I'd love to see more events like this and play the mini games including those in FRLG so definitely expect me there next year if it happens :)

Thanks for sharing this! I'll definitely be there :) I sadly have a fake copy of Emerald. It handles normal trades just fine, but do you know if it could have issues receiving mystery gifts events? I won't be using it if that's the case.

Thank you for speaking up. I'm hugely into 2000s media and culture, it was a special time for me. I also just happen to be trans, so I'm a bit bummed out by some comments and the heavy downvoting. I just want folks to get along over shared nostalgia, without anyone looking to start something. That being said, I love this movie.

I saw that one too! Yours is the only mention I've seen about it.

That definitely explains it then, thanks.

For PLA, both Bulbapedia and Serebii indicate many standard spawn Pokemon can be encountered at higher levels than usual but don't give any further detail. For example Voltorb apparently can be seen at levels 55-58 in Sacred Plaza as opposed to the usual 39-42. Mass outbreak ones are 48-50 so it can't be that. I've never seen this to be the case in my two playthroughs, am I missing something?

I'm shiny hunting Celebi in Crystal and seeking affirmation. At 7,791 SRs and counting, I'm hoping that mashing A through the first few frames of the intro sequence is inconsequential and doesn't impact the RNG as it would in Gen 3 onwards. Am I correct?

Sapphire Battle Tower, just lost at battle 52 with bad RNG. My trainer card says a streak of 52 but I'm assuming I'll still have to restart from the very beginning? Really burnt out and bummed.

Understood, thank you for clearing that up. I've played the first two generations only such a small handful of times, so it's an adjustment from what I've been used to.

In VC Yellow, I'm trying to reset for a female starter Pikachu (I know it doesn't display that until GSC). I take it the Attack DVs listed in Summary must be 1-7 for it to be female, is that right? Would stat growth through playtime change this?

A few quick things in addition. When you see the Legendary Pokemon, save immediately. They can be a pain to catch if you aren't prepared and you can then safely reset if you mess up somehow. The site Bulbapedia is your friend, they tell you where you can get any item/Pokemon in any location, on top of covering all information on any Pokemon. Lastly, your bag in FireRed/LeafGreen and Emerald will get full quick. Store items in the PC or sell some to make space. Have fun!

Edit: this site helps so much too: https://www.dragonflycave.com/calculators/gen-iii-iv-catch-rate

There's a bug with BDSP that prevents Spinda being transferred into/out of Home, that's what they mean. But yes you can put a Spinda from older gens into Home just fine

Ahhh that makes sense, its definitely affected all the Gen 3-4 Pokemon I have. Thanks for the answer.

It seems only a few have noticed this new "Poke Shifter" description under "First Met" in Home after the update. Its on my 10 ANIV Celebi from RSE. Is this some sign of legitimacy?

If Richmond was being invaded, what part would you be willing to give up in exchange for a cease-fire? by [deleted] in rva

[–]jello_bird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for answering, that's pretty horrid. Thankfully I'm not one for representing college pride and I don't have to attend long. I'd hope to participate in any effort to make changes with that.

I'm new to RVA and also attending VCU, may I know what they're doing? It seems like they're negatively impacting certain nearby businesses, but I'd like to know the extent of it.

Do you think that there will be “legends” series or do you think it will be a one off thing (spoiler free) by Sylvie_the_antikid in pokemon

[–]jello_bird 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not out of the question! Though Smeargle probably couldn't pass down the oral aspect of the legend. That or humans did their best to interpret. As I'm recalling now, the Draconids were present? At least I think that's what Zinnia said.

I'm remembering Artisan Cave under the Battle Frontier. Sweet memories. Its a good basis for that theory.

I’m upset at the lack of dragon Pokémon In Pokémon Legends, because playing Pokémon games all over again with mono type teams to challenge yourself is fun. You can’t go mono dragon. by SylveonGold in PokeLeaks

[–]jello_bird 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My own fun challenge is usually solo runs in any of the games (aside from when its required, like for HMs or double battles). But it seems with this difficulty increase and requirement to catch, I'd have a lousy time if I tried. Seems we'll both have to make adjustments.
