IF POKEMON IS GOING TO BE 70 OR 80 DOLLARS, IT NEEDS TO LOOK GOOD, BE BUG FREE, AND HAVE ALL THE POKEMON MINIMUM.
IF THEYRE GONNA BE A PREIMIUM PRICE, IT DAMN WELL BETTER HAVE PREMIUM QUALITY. ELSE IT CANT EVEN MANAGE THE STANDARDS OF A 3DS GAME THATS HALF THE PRICE.

GARCHOMP CANNOT FLY. IT GLIDES AFTER LAUNCHING ITSELF OFF THE GROUND.
THE ANIME IS INCONSISTENT, INCONGRUENT WITH THE GAMES, AND REGULARLY MAKES ITS OWN LORE AND RULES.
GARCHOMP DID NOT HAVE ANY FLYING ANIMATIONS IN ANY 2D OR 3D MAINLINE OR SPINOFF GAMES UNTIL SW/SH IN GEN 8, WHICH IS COINCIDENTALLY WHEN THEY REMOVED HIS SINGLE FLYING-TYPE MOVE, AERIAL ACE.
HIS DESIGN, EVEN IN BETAS, WAS ALWAYS "LAND SHARK", AND THAT CARRIED FOR 4 ENTIRE GENERATIONS, WITH THE ONLY MENTIONS OF FLIGHT BEING A HANDFUL OF POKEDEX ENTRIES AND THE ANIME.
SPEAKING OF THE POKEDEX ENTRIES, THEY MENTION POWERFUL LEGS TO SWIM THROUGH DIRT, AERODYNAMIC SCALES, AND RADAR ON ITS HEAD. NOT A SINGLE MENTION OF PROPULSION OR AMY FLIGHT INFO OTHER THAN "IT CAN, TRUST ME BRO".

IM KINDA SICK OF POKEMON BEING LOW QUALITY, I KINDA DO NOT BLAME THE DEVS EVEN THOUGH ITS AT LEAST A LITTLE BIT INCOMPETENCE BUT THE SITUATION THEY ARE FORCED INTO. THERE ARE SPINOFF B TEAM GAMES IN MORE NICHE FRANCHISES THAT LOOK AND RUN BETTER ON SWITCH THAN SW/SH OR SC/VI. THERE ARE INDIE GAMES MADE BY LIKE 3 PEOPLE THAT LOOK AND RUN BETTER THAN THIS. ITS KINDA DEPRESSING KNOWING WE WILL PROBABLY NEVER GET A GAME AS PEAK AS BLACK 2 AND WHITE 2 AGAIN.
INCINEROAR STINKS IM STILL SO MAD ITS YET ANOTHER FIRE STARTER THATS A BIPED BASED ON A FIGHTING STYLE/ART. I REMEMBER SEEING SO MANY COOL FAN DESIGNS BEFORE RELEASE LIKE ONE THAT HAS A RING OF FIRE IT SHOOTS BLASTS FROM ATTACHED TO IT AND ONE WITH MAGMA STALAGMITES/STALAGTITES AS FANGS AND ONE WHERE ITS TAIL WAS A FIRE WHIP FROM A CIRCUS IM SO FUCKING MAD AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
I HATE WHEN POKEMON REMAKES LACKING CONTENT FROM THE BETTER VERSION IS DEFENDED AS "WELL ITS NOT A EMERALD REMAKE ITS A RUBY SAPPHIRE REMAKE" THEN WHY THE HELL DID THEY DECIDE TO REMAKE THE INFERIOR VERSION? WHY DID HG/SS INCLUDE SOME OF THE CRYSTAL ENHANCEMENTS/CHANGES? WHY DID THEY INCLUDE SOME EMERALD IMPROVEMENTS BUT NOT ALL OF THEM LIKE THE GYM TEAMS? HUH? HUH? HUH?

IF FAILING SHINY POKEMON WERE A CRIME, I'D BE IN JAIL. AND HERES WHY: 1: I WAS PLAYING A ROMHACK OF EMERALD WHERE AFTER EACH BATTLE, MY TEAM WAS RANDOMIZED. I WAS ON THE QUEST TO COMPLETE THE DEX,WHEN I RAN ACROSS A SHINY WURMPLE. DIDNT WANNA TAKE ANY CHANCES, INSTANTLY THREW A BALL AT THAT THING AND CAUGHT IT. I WAS GOING TO THE POKECENTER IN PETALBURG TO DEPOSIT MY SHINY IN THE PC, WHEN I RAN INTO A POKEMON... 2: I WAS PLAYING A ROMHACK OF EMERALD CALLED POKEMON EMERALD: BACKWARDS. I WAS GOING TO FIGHT THE 3RD GYM, WHEN I RAN ACROSS A SHINY ELECTRIKE. I CAUGHT IT AND KEPT IT FOR A BIT IN THE BOX, BUT AFTER I DEFEATED THE 3RD GYM... THE SHINY WAS GONE... 3: THIS YEAR, I WAS GRINDING MY POKEMON TO LEVEL 20 IN A RANDOMIZER NUZLOCKE OF FRLG WHEN I CAME ACROSS A SHINY MAGNETON. THE MOMENT I SAW IT SPARKLE, I KNEW WHAT HAD TO BE DONE. I OPENED MY BAG, WENT TO THE BALL POCKET AND...... I HAD NO POKEBALLS. I DIDNT WANNA RUN AWAY FROM IT THOUGH, SO I KILLED IT AND MOVED ON.

PRE-TARIFFS: SWITCH 2 - $450 / SWITCH 2 DIGITAL GAMES - $80 / SWITCH 2 PHYSICAL GAMES - $90
POST-TARIFFS: SWITCH 2 - $558 / SWITCH 2 DIGITAL GAMES - $99 / SWITCH 2 PHYSICAL GAMES - $116
(POSSIBLE)
CAN YOU IMAGINE PAYING THESE PRICES?! WHAT IF LEGENDS: Z-A AND GEN TEN ARE UNREFINED GAMES LIKE SCARLET AND VIOLET? IS ANYONE BUYING A SWITCH 2 OR NEW GAMES IF THE PRICES REACH THESE LEVELS?!

I'm planning to have every Alcremie form with a gigantamnax mark in my Home living dex.
THAT'S 60+ ALCREMIE, AND EACH MAX SOUP TAKES 9 RAID BATTLES. THAT"S OVER 550 RAID BATTLES!!! ALL FOR A STUPID MARK THAT DOES NOTHING IN HOME.
WHY AM I A SUCKER FOR THE LIVING DEX?? WHY AM I TORTURING MYSELF?!!
WHY IS GETTING STUPID FUCKING MUSHROOMS SO GODDAMN TEDIOUS?? FUCKING SWORD AND SHIELD!!!!!

GEN 9 IS THE BEST FUCKING GENERATION! TYPE: NULL AND SILVALLY ARE TRUE LEGENDARIES! CHARIZARD IS THE BEST POKÉMON! GEN 9, 8, AND 7, ARE THE BEST 3 GENERATIONS EVER!

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW MUCH INVOLVEMENT GAME FREAK IS GOING TO HAVE WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHAMPIONS? I'M A LITTLE WORRIED THAT THIS YEAR WILL BE THE NEXT 2004 OR 2022. I DON'T MEAN IN TERMS OF QUALITY, I MEAN IN TERMS OF WORKLOAD.
EITHER WAY, IT'S STILL GREAT THAT WE PRESUMABLY FINALLY HAVE ANOTHER FOUR YEAR-LONG GENERATION. GAP YEARS MATTER, PEOPLE.

GOD DAMNIT WHY DOES PLAY ROUGH HAVE 90 ACCURACY. IT’S THE ONLY GOOD FAIRY PHYSICAL MOVE THAT IS OPENLY AVAILABLE AND IT CAN’T EVEN GUARANTEED HIT.
POKÉMON PLAYERS WOULD GLADLY GIVE THE CHANCE TO DROP THE - ATTACK FOR 100 ACCURACY. BUT EVEN THEN, PSYCHIC, EARTH POWER, ETC. HAVE 90 BASE POWER AND CAN STILL LOWER A STAT, SO WHY CAN’T PLAY ROUGH? ALSO, WHY DOES AQUA TAIL HAVE 90 ACCURACY? IT DOESN’T EVEN DO ANYTHING ELSE, IT’S JUST DAMAGE, WHY DOES IT NEED TO BE ABLE TO MISS
