My biggest frustration is how I have to go back there every time a big tournament rolls around that I'm going to.
Please, everyone, migrate anywhere else. I'd accept Smogon forums at this point.
The reversal from Pokémon Black and White being heavily reviled at launch, to now being considered one of the best in series, has been a masterful example of gaslighting and emotional whiplash.
I feel like I've gone from defending to criticising, without changing my opinion at all.
One of my favourite wins at a PC back in 2015 was against rain. Came down to his (faster) Politoed against my Tyranitar. He's on a slither of health but has won the weather war, already celebrating making top cut.
Then I mega evolve, protect and he faints to sand.
You do what you got to do 🤷♂️😂
I feel infinitely worse from an evening of doomscrolling compared to almost any videogame.
Social media, it's just empty calories of entertainment.
I used to love team building. Back when we had a format for an entire year and had the free time of a student, tweaking a team to absolute perfection and knowing every match up was amazing.
Neither of those are true anymore. I just don't have the time anymore. Teams with usage guides are my go to
I've wanted to replay Tales of Symphonia and Witcher 3 for years. But I know full well that either of those will take at least six months - and in the meantime there are so many new games being released.
Lots of the megas in ZA have been quite disappointing, but how many Megas are reliant on their abilities to actually be good? I'm excited
I'm helping at Bristol Videogame Expo today, running the Pokémon Academy stand! If you're in the south west and fancy a fun day out, come say hi!
That's so cool, Mawile is one of my favourites.
Everyone's favourite Pokémon; plus some weird ghost! Now everyone can experience this cursed image (it's up all Sunday at EUIC!)

Not my best work but in fairness, I only had ten minutes 😂

Queuing at Pokémon EUIC and the security dogs just got a photo with Eevee!!
I don't know about every region - balancing that to be fun could be tricky - but I'm all for revisiting, or doing what Scarlet Violet did and visit other parts of older regions.
Just, maybe less Kanto? 😅
Slightly spicy Pokémon opinion; any other long term fans getting bored of the constant Kanto emphasis?
Since X and Y it's been a near constant that Kanto has a presence in everything.
I think countries are missing a trick by not using that nationalism to try and improve their nations. Like, it's ideal context for an anti-littering and recycling campaign.
Ah, yeah, Switch version performance, hadn't considered that. Is it like FF7R, where TV mode is compromised (not "bad", but definitely not great), but works great in handheld mode?
It's currently £8 on Loaded formerly CD Keys™ (gotta use the full title right?) on Switch. Haven't really got time for it and won't fit several months, with plenty on my back catalogue. Is it worth getting now?
@threebeansaladpod.bsky.social - This is very important
The Pikachu crew has curry in Birmingham after a big day going 2-6.
I'd barely done any practice before the Birmingham Pokémon videogame regional this weekend, so thought I'd take a fun team.
This is my entry to the art competition on the Sunday.

Only paying mild attention to competitive Go, I love the whiplash I get every time I catch a glimpse of the usage stats. What do you mean Furret is third most used now?
What about FIFA 2003 on PS2? Practically the same thing as a peace prize these days.
Love a fun little Squirt bottle cameo. Here's one of mine
I love the pose for this one
I gather Nintendo had a patent on something to do with analogue sticks, might be to do with that? I'm guessing here, I had the same reaction as you to that photo
My friends and I logged into this website at school literally every day in the lead up to Brawl.
I don't know any other marketing campaign that's had me as hooked and onboard and this one.
I've found similar. The main game was great, I did everything bar battling for the shiny charm. But the dlc just feels a bit... Like you say, bit of a grind.
I was obsessed with this trilogy over the summer! Didn't realise how long it'd been since reading a book I couldn't put down.
If you're at all into fantasy, Hunger Games, or were ever into that magic school franchise starring Daniel Radcliffe, I cannot recommend this enough.
I do this but I interrupt my friends on discord instead.
