Big Boss · December 12, 2017, 06:54:50 PM

Like holy fuck, I was expecting Synchronize to not work, but still be happy with the shiny at least but

FUCK. YES.

Big Boss · December 12, 2017, 07:24:38 PM

Big Boss · December 12, 2017, 08:22:16 PM

I used to have NO luck in the wormholes, but Kyogre seems to have opened the floodgates...

Big Boss · December 12, 2017, 08:32:12 PM

Are you fucking joking

3 shinies in one day?

I think the further you go out into Ultra Space there are some holes that show up that guarantee a shiny. I got a Heliolisk from one.

I don't even ever get very far, usually 2000-4000

Big Boss · December 13, 2017, 06:52:14 AM

In addition to another Barbaracle

What the fuck, did my game just take sympathy for getting none, then dump a load on me at once?

Big Boss · December 13, 2017, 02:16:39 PM

I got a shiny 6IV Hoopa from Wonder Trade.

Anybody want it? I'm not touching hacked shit.

Big Boss · December 13, 2017, 05:40:53 PM

I wonder if my Weavile's Metal Claw Z move will catch people off guard. I like getting creative.

In this version of Pokémon Crystal, players will also have the chance to encounter the mythical Pokémon Celebi in an event after completing the game. In the original Pokémon Crystal game, Celebi could only be obtained by using a special accessory.

So glad I decided to wait to see if they'd release Crystal. Now I'm just hoping that Celebi isn't shiny locked.

Goddamn, I'm only now looking at the changes made to Pokemon abilities from Gen 7, and some of them got fucking NERFED HARD.

Gale Wings only works at full HP, Dark Void got dropped to 50% acc AND Smeargle can no longer learn it, plus Gengar lost Levitate.

R -I - FUCKING- P

Yeah, it releases on the 26th. They didn't release it with Gold and Silver for some silly reason.

But they released Yellow alongside Red and Blue

Yeah, but I think Yellow wound up dwarfing Red and Blue in terms of sales, though, so this was a course correction.

Yeah I think if they'd known Yellow would have sold far more than the other two, they would have waited then too.
