Also had a midlife crisis trying to pick between Delcatty and Purple Kecleon for Gen 3 Normal because I have immense nostalgia for both of them with Mystery Dungeon being like the 2nd coming of christ of Pokémon games and Delcatty being a mainstay member on my first ever Pokémon team as well as being definitively broken in Rescue Team DX because of a giant movepool and S.T.A.B. being monstrous. Eventually went with Delcatty because Purple Kecleon isn't able to be used at all, here's hoping either a brand new Mystery Dungeon or Explorers DX gives us that chance.

23:00 I can answer this for myself at least: Hisuian Liligant was ALSO Grass/Fighting, making it pointless to use. When I start pokemon games, I'll usually pick my starter based on if the new pokemon of the same types of the starters will overlap, if so, I refuse. As an example, in Scarlet, I choose Meowscarada, because Fire was covered by Armorouge, Ghost was covered by Annihilape, Fighting was covered by Annihilape, and Water wasn't covered. So in Arceus, I picked Samurot because I wanted a strong Water and Dark type, because the other types were filled. He didn't have a long Feather Katana - He looked like a wondering Samurai, and didn't have some sort of sword, like how the OG had a bow.

[@Words-.]

Hey all. This is a short, Pokemon based, creative writing piece that I did a while back. What do y'all think? : My grip tightened stiffly in the early morning air, my eyes squinting in strict determination. My arm moved in a swift and vicious arc, curving the red and white pokeball in a smooth throw into the worn battlefield. The pokeball’s flash further illuminated the early morning, the bricks of the trainer school to my right, and my nearing victory as my Arcanine spewed from the light. I drew in a deep breath and closed my eyes. Another sharp breath. Focus. “Go Luxray!” My eyes snapped open to a quick flash of light, as Luxray materialized from the pokeball which was promptly re-caught by my opponent, the electric beast thudding onto the ground causing a tangible rumble under my feet. “We’ve got this Arcanine,” I snarled in a whisper. Arcanine’s fiery eyes turned to mine in brief acknowledgement; it rippled its fur, cascading gleaming waves of sunset orange, in a regal response. I nodded approval of his apparent determination, and focused my gaze ahead. The referee in the center of the field raised a calloused hand in the air. It hung for a moment before being balled into a fist and brought down swiftly as the ref. yelled, “Begin!” “Let’s go Arcanine, fire fang!” I exclaimed powerfully into the air as Arcanine’s mouth erupted in lava like orange spews. “We’ll hit them the same,” I heard roared from across the court, “thunder fang!” The deep rumble of static ignited in the air as lightning poured from Luxray’s hungry mouth. I squeezed my hands tightly and pressed my feet firmly to the ground. “Goooo!” We yelled simultaneously, and Arcanine and Luxray both surged from their previous spots in bursting clouds of dust. Glowing, sharp fangs bared, pouring lava arcing towards pealing thunders, and suddenly a violent cloud of dust spewed into the clearing along with a violent shockwave that raised my hairs on end; the bites making powerful contact. I waved my hands in front of me, combating the thick cloud, my mind churning powerfully for the next move; Lets do this. The morning continued, quick flashes and rumbles booming as the backdrop sound on a peaceful morning of pokemon battle training.

Post DLC commentary here-not really? I mean, people like it, but it didn't really blow up

[@dustinthefunny9287]

nacli was the first full odds shiny i have ever gotten so i’d have to make it my favourite rock type from gen 9

[@nickywal]

I had issues with gigalith for nearly 2 years after Raihan's took out the ribombee that carried half of sword, recently used it in black and took out Ghetsis so its gotten a bit better

[@CursedAnqxl]

I did this too and it is tough to pick a favorite, especially as time goes on. but glad I did it regardless and saw other people do it too.

I am ridiculously shocked that Mickey didnt pick drowzee for his favorite Gen 1 psychic type.

[@hoglin7]

Same

[@Mainlymaniacal]

How did he miss such an important choice!?

[@OmegaQuinn]

Ah yes the nearly 1 year long annoying joke

[@raymundinhoevangelista4148]

Really?

[@aaam7359]

Wow the funniest man on earth

[@tankizard]

6:48 "And also there are socks". I could not help but guffaw slightly when you said that. I just wish I could afford them

[@Landoing.]

“Huh, Shadow Lugia is here! ?” “I’m going to go with Tropius”

[@Zeturic]

I just had the perfect idea for the new Zebstrika form you've been asking for. Put a Calyrex on its back.

[@redwardranger7034]

I myself didn't like Hisuian Decidueye at first but I kinda warmed up to it eventually. Also, it's Triple arrow animation is amazing

[@Sanrio24]

23:10 he had to say it in a accent to get it right😂

[@Chloehill109]

The floor tentacles are drowning me.

[@reihwan]

I remember doing this back in the day on dA (and by this I mean like over 15 years ago... I shall go sit with the rest of the fossils now) by downloading all the sprites myself and placing them there on photoshop. Not much has changed from those. I still one day hope to get my dream team on a modern game, but alas Serperior is locked in Unova and that is the bane of my sorry existence. (And the team would just be for my own story telling playthrough...)

[@Mnsungerr]

5:24 i honestly didnt know theres only 1 ghost type in gen 2💀✋

[@TwilightChomperEnthusiast]

This looks like something that will be interesting! Will we get another Drowzee/Miltank rant?

[@Saimeren]

You didn't pick my favourite Pokemon or my backup, or my backup's backup. And that disappoints me.

[@smokingsoilder]

Tauros is OP in gen 1. I was hoping gen 9 would show the same love. Saldy he will forever be on any R/B team I have along with Arcanine

[@thesicklemodernagriculture]

I'm glad to see that there can be such a big difference in how much people love Pokémon!
