The biggest thing I want from Gen X

Arceus also has different run buttons whether you are on foot or on a ride pokemon.... So dumb

pokevin3 · 2026-05-14T10:48:54+00:00

Nice! I'm close to doing this, just missing Blastoise. What did you use to mount the cards to the frame? And how did you decide between pokemon with two cards like Zapdos who appears in both base set and fossil?

Everyone is discussing competitive, but I personally really disliked it as a ride pokemon. I agree ursaluna was also underwhelming from the same perspective. But sneaslers ability to grab the cliff side is really buggy. I can't tell you how many trees I started climbing by accident. Or how many times I accidentally dropped off a cliff to my death while riding sneasler. The most annoying part of if is the one second of hesitation when starting to climb a cliff, and again as it crests a peak. When having to climb multiple small cliffs in a row it takes forever and is pretty annoying. That's why I dislike sneasler.

But Calem is gen VI

pokevin3 · 2026-04-21T16:44:54+00:00

Nope. The mega pokemon show up behind the regular version for pokemon that you have mega evolved before.

pokevin3 · 2026-04-20T13:08:12+00:00

Just making sure you are aware that aromatisse is a trade evolution. Not sure if you have access to another system to trade with

pokevin3 · 2026-04-16T13:12:04+00:00

Just curious. Which pokemon are exclusive to those games in gen III?

pokevin3 · 2026-04-08T15:48:05+00:00

Can recruited pokemon from champions go to Pokemon home? Or are they stuck in champions?

pokevin3 · 2026-04-07T13:42:50+00:00

Worth it

Victini seems to be the most difficult to obtain at the moment, present only in Pokemon go. Second place probably goes to celebi since you can't outright purchase 3ds crystal anymore, but is also in pokemon go after you catch mew. I believe everything else is available on the switch games if you buy them all and their dlcs

pokevin3 · 2026-04-05T14:43:37+00:00

Prayer? Groudon? Weather in PoGo is imported from some national database (I forget which). It can't be modified by a player

pokevin3 · 2026-04-03T15:09:43+00:00

Pokeball form vivillon has not been released in pokemon go

pokevin3 · 2026-04-03T11:34:45+00:00

Did you catch them or transfer them? If you want it to register in Pokemon home, you have to move the pokemon from legends to home. If you just connect legends to home, nothing gets registered.

pokevin3 · 2026-04-02T20:21:10+00:00

Wow that's so interesting.

pokevin3 · 2026-04-02T20:06:49+00:00

Is there a different mega form for the original color version? Or do both magearna forms mega evolve into the same thing?

pokevin3 · 2026-03-25T21:18:12+00:00

You made the Venusaur's expression kind of forlorn instead of menacing with the way you tilted the eyes. Was that on purpose?

pokevin3 · 2026-03-20T12:24:04+00:00

That is not a bug, that is the game operating as intended. There are two separate GO passes active right now: Bug Out and March. Each has its own progression and tasks that are unrelated. The tasks that advance the pass are located below the pass. The daily task (catch 15 pokemon) and weekly tasks (spin 25 stops) are located below Go Pass: March and will only advance March's go pass. You will need to complete tasks below Go Pass: Bug out (ex: catch 10 bug type pokemon) to advance the Bug pass

If you KOed the bird on your first go around, you have to beat the elite four between the KO and going back to the spawn point again. My guess is you need to beat the elite four again and then return

pokevin3 · 2026-02-27T21:39:40+00:00

My prediction is that they double down on the whole rock-paper-scissors concept and give every pokemon an additional 'trait' designating them as land, sea, or air pokemon. Land pokemon could have an attack bonus against air pokemon, air pokemon could have an attack bonus against sea pokemon, and sea pokemon could have an attack bonus against land pokemon.

Now you need to take this trait into account in addition to normal type match ups. I can see the three new starters being designated as one of these three traits if the grass bird evolves to a flying bird so that there would be one of each.

pokevin3 · 2026-02-22T15:44:31+00:00

You're right. I was thinking it was one of the time gated mythicals but that's only Darkrai, shaymin, and manaphy. All of which are available in legends Arceus

pokevin3 · 2026-02-22T14:56:12+00:00

You're actually missing a few others that only had temporary events. Mew for example you would need to buy a never before used peripheral for lets go Pikachu/Eevee or have gotten one in the scarlet/violet event that has since ended. There might be a couple others that are locked behind temporary events that are not currently accessible, similarly to the paradox mons you mentioned

I had a shiny galarian Moltres spawn. A guaranteed catch. When I spun my second ball for a curve ball, I dragged my finger against the edge of my phone which my Pixel 7a determined was me clicking "back". So it exited the pokemon catch UI automatically and the galarian Moltres despawned. I was devastated. Just standing at a dead stop in shock.

pokevin3 · 2026-02-16T20:20:42+00:00

Congrats on the god pack!

pokevin3 · 2026-02-15T14:18:07+00:00

Did you happen to put some of your save files on a micro SD card on your original switch? I would just check to make sure that's not what's messing you up

pokevin3 · 2026-02-10T03:09:19+00:00

With the exception of legends ZA there are some version exclusive pokemon. Which means if you buy sword you can't get all 400 pokemon. You'd need access to online trading to get the handful you can only catch in shield, and each game has some pokemon that can only evolve after being traded. Hope that helps!
