I got some earth-shattering news for everybody bidding on the last codes: Somebody on Reddit just offered three Tier 0 Pokémon for all three codes. I'm in a chat with them as we speak. We're trading within the next hour. If this goes through, that's it—no more codes. We'll just have to wait and...

Groudon + Celebi would put you back in second. Somebody on Twitter just took the highest bid today with a shiny Poipole. Poipole's shiny-locked in SW/SH, which makes it really hard to get. Celebi's basically been demoted to semi-mythical (like Deoxys, Keldeo, and Magearna) after VC Crystal made...

It's Sunday! With two (and a half) codes left to trade (I'll explain the "half" later), I'll be giving out friend codes to the two best Tier 1 and 2 offers I received so far at some time later tonight. (If you want to snag a reservation, you can still do so until about 10:00PM Eastern Time...

I could do at least Spectrier and Urshifu. There's two codes up for grabs now, so that would get you up to second on the list of bids (Highest bid I've had so far is a shiny Suicune). I haven't heard back from Wuxiao15 yet; I'm still waiting for them to register me to their friend list...

I'll keep that one in consideration. If I don't get any other myth trades by around Sunday night, you might get a code. Someone is already offering up 2 shiny Galar Fossils for 2 codes, but Rusted Zacian for me would take priority over one of those.

Yes, I'll take it! 😀 I'll send you my friend code, and then a Zarude code over PM.

UPDATE: 1 Zarude code was given to Wuxiao15 UPDATE: The remaining 3 Zarude codes were traded on Reddit for Diancie, Marshadow, and Zeraora [THREAD CLOSED] [All 4 codes used] I have unused GameStop/Micromania Zarude codes I saved for trade fodder. Ideally, I'd like to trade them for all the...

Cut used to do that, actually.

Elikiteru's seems to be receiving a lot of flak on other sites, but I think it's cute, and kinda fantastical. Never seen a lizard with ears before; nice to see Game Freak getting creative with this kinda stuff. Really like Yayakoma and his Fire attacks; so hoping he becomes a Fire/Flying-type...

Yeah, there's no way that Smash footage means it's a Fighting-type. It's just someone in a Sylveon costume messing around with nunchuks, nothing more. =P

Ever since the Yellow Version (my first Pokemon game), I'd been playing through all the games in sort of a traditional way, from the kinds of Pokemon I'd use in my team to the choices I typically make in each game. So when the English versions of Black and White were released, I chose to break...

I always thought Cacophony didn't exist because it was just Soundproof with a different name. I would assume it was originally meant to be a signature ability for the Whismur line, given their tendency to emit loud noises, and how all three are supposed to resemble some form of loudspeaker, but...

In the case of Hilda and Hilbert, supposedly those were meant to be English-variant translations of the B/W characters' names: Tōko and Tōya, respectively. Since "tō" means "to fight" in Japanese, the English versions were given those respective names because "hild" is a Germanic word for...

I was just thinking today about the current battle system we have now, and decided to post my thoughts here: I noticed how there's been a lot of controversy around the move Stealth Rock, ever since the move saw a lot of use competitively. From what I understand, while the move cripples a lot of...

I heard a rumor somewhere that the Berserk Gene from G/S/C could make a comeback, which I guess would explain Mewtwo's supposed new forme, and perhaps even explain why the Berserk Gene wasn't in HG/SS. Here's my theory, in the situation that the new forme is legit: in G/S/C, the Berserk Gene...
