Another journey for our legacy of the butterfrees

mom wake up new butterfree content

Agreed with every rant in the video, and appreciate Peter's Hawlucha

Colosseum is my favorite mechanically (ignoring battle animations that last 200,000 hours, and slow ass walking speed), but this game has my favorite region. It's filled with a bunch of unique areas/towns while also feeling really cohesive with its tropical island theme.

If only the water wasn't Like That.

Just starting to watch the Emerald series, congrats for the 800 subs! (and congrats on Butterfree for being butter free)

[@Suprapika]

Thaaaank you Nayumi

[@DrizzleDrizzleNeverDies]

Congrats on hitting front page recommendations, you'll probably be flooded soon. Also, love the premise of this series. Just subbed, gonna go back and watch Yellow in a bit. (Playing Persona 5 Royal right now, it's too good to put down 😅)

[@Suprapika]

That's weird that this, of all things, would hit anyones front page, but thanks! Just uh, pay no mind to what I say about Persona 5 in the Yellow playthrough.

The red string of fate is a Japanese pop culture thing that is said to tie together two people who are meant for each other. With this information, you can see how it might have some link to breeding since you are pairing Pokemon. As for the specific effect, that's probably just cuz they wanted to make it do something.

[@Suprapika]

Alright, fair enough on that, even though the effect is still way too obscure to find out naturally anyway. I stand by the Everstone thing though, plus there's all the incenses, too. Pokemon items are weird.

The only differences between Detect and Protect are hahaha in the Contest Hall. Protect: 1 Heart Cute Move, Combos with Harden, can Protect against all Startles for the turn apparently. Detect: 2 Hearts Cool Move, Combos with Taunt, only protects against the first Startle for the turn.

[@Suprapika]

Good to know, I suppose

[@porygonlover322]

at this point theyve ruined shinies twice over, because in order to counteract the fact you can just walk into a room and see a shiny they made a lot of them look almost identical to the regular version. thereby destroying the reason to even bother

[@porygonlover322]

personally i think the insane depth of pokemon is mostly something to get kids who play it at age 7 to keep playing it at age 13/14. something in my middle/high schooler brain definitely loved reading about all these crazy systems and just tinkering with them for the fun of it

[@Suprapika]

Is the shiny thing deliberate? I know shiny colors were wack in the first couple gens just because of how color palettes work, but the colors became actually cool for a while.

[@porygonlover322]

@@Suprapika It's definitely a pattern. A lot of modern Shinies are shit like "the gem on this Pokemon's belly is light blue instead of dark blue" and it definitely feels connected to the way hunting them works now

[@Suprapika]

@@porygonlover322 That's both bizarre and kind of fascinating.
