Am I the only one who hopes that this game becomes really easy?

Sheep, Jul 2: I'd like a middle ground, too. I am typically bad at video games and like an easy mode in my games but Pokémon is often the exception. I feel like it's gotten too easy already with all the friendship bonuses and avoiding things that normally are...

CF1994, Jul 1: 1. Sprigatito Type: Grass/Dark or Grass/Fairy Ability: Overgrow/??? 75/118/65/70/90/115 (BST: 533) If Riddler-Khu is right, Sprigatito may evolve into a bipedal cat. Many people, myself included, would imagine this kitty evolving into a leafy...

What will you name your character?

PageEmperor, Jun 30: I know I’m alone in this, but I hope the games are easy. Possibly easier than XY easy. But though, I don’t wish for it to be ‘you will always win’ easy. It’s just that, in case the Grass starter ends up with a GARBAGE typing like Grass/Dark, I...

Lechonk and Smoliv, what side are you on?

Explorer of Time, Jun 22: Smolive is cute. It's an olive pokemon. And it's a dual type with a rarely-used combination. Lechonk is just a pig. And it has the single most common typing in the entire franchise. I'm not actually sure what people see in it.

longlostsoldier, Jun 15: Quaxly seems like it's going to be a pirate, which would be very cool. I really hope for the green kitty to stay quadrupedal, but if we had professions like 'pirate' (if pirate counts as a profession) then considering how grass often uses support...

Five key things from the June reveals of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

What do you want out of the bad guys in the game?
