Perhaps it's just the fact that it creates a throughline between two otherwise very different games, but I really enjoy how is by all appearances a direct descendant of (and you just know Lacey would appreciate the cuteness of a Goomy)

Riffing off that: Pawmi being #22 and Houndour being #25 raises the intriguing possibility that Pawmi is a three-stage line

Plus, after almost three decades with only each other for company, Nidoqueen and Nidoking finally have a new friend in the Poison/Ground club

Mirai is also the Japanese word for "future"; looks like the straightforward word for "past" would be kako, which would transliterate... very badly in a Spain-based region, but I presume there's a relevant word that looks like korai (which is, incidentally, a Hungarian word for "early"). Edit...

I'm hopeful this is pointing towards two-way communication with HOME; would be disappointed if BDSP turned out to be like LGPE in that regard.

Controversial (?) opinion: storming the Silph building is the best part of Kanto. All those nooks and crannies, the atmospheric background music, the believable terror from the NPCs, the out-and-out heroism of your actions as a player... fun in Gens I, III and VII. On a separate matter, setting...

Ah yes, an eleven-letter acronym, such a time-saver Anyway, on to the fun bit: Green_typhlosion, I choose for you: Horsea!

I can just see the Pokédex entry now: "In the lush, calm environment of the Hisui region, Mandibuzz has shed its dark attributes" On an entirely separate matter: Which surely means that , no?

It's a little alarming that they've apparently gone extinct since the Hisui period :blobastonished: but agreed, very cool! Relatedly, with Wyrdeer and Basculegion, is this the first time we've gotten completely new non-restricted (by which I mean, neither legendary nor mythical nor Ultra Beast)...

Not even mentioned in the trailer, just dropped quietly on the website, but it turns out we're getting a free Manaphy egg? That's a very cute way to integrate the former Ranger bonus.

A bizarre thought: if the placement of Legends: Arceus in this timeline is even roughly correct, Opal’s birth and childhood are closer to those games than they are to SWSH

Beartic's Shield Pokédex entry (emphasis mine): and from Sword: In CT, we gained access to a location literally named "Frigid Sea", where Beartic can occasionally be found... on land only.

Something I did only five minutes ago: raise Hatterene to Lv. 64 with candies so it learns Magic Powder go to Split-Decision Ruins select electric pattern send out Hatterene to use Magic Powder on Regieleki, so I can then use Thunder Wave on it realise I did not bring a Pokémon with Thunder...

Hey, just FYI, I'm UTC+8, so raid hour for me is probably mid-morning for you (about 3.5 hours after the time of this message). Keep an eye out for invites from CharmCobalt if you're keen :blobthumbsup:

Don't forget about Dream Radar, which gave access to a bunch of legendaries at levels as low as 5! I have particularly fond memories of this feature since it was the foundation of one of the most enjoyable playthroughs I've ever done, a White 2 run with a Landorus and Giratina on my team.

Given that the CT datamine thread is having some kind of day, here's what appears to be an unpopular opinion: I like and am broadly satisfied with the Crown Tundra

Just FYI, this can be fixed by using the "Run as administrator" or "Install for all users" function to launch the game - once you complete this screen in that mode it'll lock it in permanently. Have fun with the playthrough! Looking forward to updates :blobthumbsup:
