Bianica and Cheren followed us every where.
Gen 5 was the start of cheerful rivals that stay by your side
>>32901940
Bianca and Cheren weren't shit. They had personalities and their own problems they had to sort out, they had development and growth, and they didn't hold your hand throughout the game.
Trevor, Tierno and Shauna had zero personality, zero growth and development, they did zero to affect the plot or create any meaningful relation to the player, and they were utter GARBAGE at battling.
Bianca and Cheren might have been friendly rivals too, but at least they weren't bad.
Also, May/Brendan were the first friendly rivals, OP, so you failed at that too. You also forgot Barry and Ethan/Lyra.
>>32901991
This.
>>32901940
Bianca and Cheren were friendly rivals. The XY faggot squad were just friends.
Hey /vp/,
I was wondering what you were thinking about nicknames for your Pokémon. Do you usually give them names, or do you just use the specie default name for each Pokemon ?
I would actually like to give them nicknames, but I never manage to find clever ones, whenever I think of a nickname I like I always end up finding it a bit cringy a few moments later.
What do /vp/.
>>32901930
I don't like to give my Pokemon nicknames. It makes them feel like possessions as opposed to friends.
>>32901939
Never heard that but I understand your point of view. It's just that people find it usually weird when I tell them I don't give my Pokemon nicknames, they think it makes them special
>>32901930
On initial runs, I never give Pokémon nicknames because NPCs don't often do it. I like to think of the protagonist as a normal Trainer like everyone else, so blending in with the other characters helps me get into the game a little more.
In Nuzlockes or subsequent runs after I know the game more, I'll usually be a little more lenient. I don't keep a theme, and I name them literally whatever first comes to mind. For example, in my Moon run I'm doing now, I named an Oricorio Breezin' because it was windy outside when I caught it.
Also post your own region maps ITT
So besides the main chunk of the PNW, I can see what looks like Russia, the San Juan islands, and Vancouver island. What's that chunk on the bottom left?
>>32901934
Unless I'm a doofus and the map wraps around?
>>32901934
>>32901941
Bottom left is Alaska, but not Alaska.

Not looking for whole new games, just modified versions of mainline pkmn games. I played polished crystal and thought it was great, is there anything similar for other gens?
>>32901821
Theta Emerald EX and Nameless Firered are two 721 hacks that can also communicate with each other. No changes to the story but the games have been updated to gen 6 mechanics, including mega evos.
The hacker of Theta Emerald is also working on adding gen 7.
Red++ for Gen 1
Polished Crystal, which you already played
Eccentric/Sigma Emerald for Gen 3
Sacred Gold/Storm Silver for HGSS
Blaze Black and Volt White

How many pokemon do you take for your team in a new playthrough? I haven't used a full 6 slot team since Gen 1/2. Since gen 3 I've been sticking to 3 pokemon teams, with HM slaves in the back. If I feel really frisky, I would get a fourth. Sure leveling up fewer pokemon makes the games a bit easier, but it also makes them less hectic.
I always play with a full team
I try to play with as many Pokemon as the region will feasibly let me grind, rotating them out.
Always 6, I never even used HM slaves. I don't see how any less than 5 is fun
I wanna get S/M. But with US/UM on the Horizon I am torn. Should I get S/M right now or get US/UM later?
switch 2018-2019
just inject lol
It would be easier to answer that if we knew more about USM
Thoughts?
>>32901611
I'd fug him.
>>32901611
would fuck
shitmon
>Inb4 just emulate
I would but I want to a physical copy. Also I don't think you can transfer Pokemon from an Emulated game.
You can
>>32901410
any run of the mill old game shop
You'll probably have to replace the battery for the RTC to work. My physical copy's battery ran dry some time ago.
How do you feel about them? Would you say that they have better battle themes than the other games? Are they better remakes than OR/AS?
>>32901194
They were great to it's own time, and yes, were better than ORAS but not than HGSS.
>>32901194
Don't care much for them. They were too conservative and added very little to the original games in my opinion.
The were average. HGSS were good. ORAS were mediocre.
Some of my personal favorites as I feel like they pretty much perfected what RBGY attempted. They're not SS-tier remakes, but they're my favorite remakes for capturing the nostalgic feeling of RGBY while making it all the comfier.
Friendly reminder that the reason Lillie decided to become a trainer (and is already is one in the anime) is because we'll be seeing more of her in Gen 8.
So yeah, hope you guys like Lillie.
If they shoehorn her in as hard as they did SM, pokemon is dead.
If she's as unpopular in japland as in the rest of the world, it'd be literal suicide for sales to include her as a main character. Only thing is that I don't trust the fucking japs to hate her, she's the kinda bullshit they slurp right up.
>>32901212
end your fucking self anon. slit your wrists. you think you deserve to live? die a bloody death. nobody will grieve.
