Yeah I thought of black holes, except that doesn't fit the refraction thing very well. If anything, black holes do the exact opposite; they absorb all light. Their event horizons do emit radiation but that's different. Also why refer to an object (black hole) with another object (prism)? I...

Prisms are usually represented as black? =\ Well darn. Shows what I know.

According to an NPC, Necrozma 'is black, yet it refracts light'. It seems to be based on a black prism. Literally, if it refracts light, then it's not perfectly black. So this gimmick is more symbolic than literal. It's name could be a combination of 'necro' and 'prisma', suggesting that the...

Brother, you and I both. I spent so much time on this, hours I'll never get back. Ironically, that's what made the satisfaction all the sweeter when GF let us go into space and catch Deoxys in the remakes. I mean still no in-game Jirachi, but whatever.

Unsurprisingly, everyone's already mentioned the classics like Lavender Town, Old Chateau. So I'm going to bring up some unconventional ones. 1. The ghost house on Kalos route 14 creeped me out. I thought the atmosphere was classically spooky. The old man's tale about a horde of faceless men...

I, like many others, was in love with Kricketune's cry from the moment I first heard it. I was so ecstatic when I heard it became a meme. And while we're there, I'm also going to give an honorable mention to its younger brother Kricketot, who sounds like a xylophone. Others include Milotic: An...

Hahaha, I do that all the time. When I was a kid, I sometimes used to save a second time even if I saw it save the first time. That was a weird thing I had. Same way some people do easy calculations on a calculator multiple times. And thanks for that, Brendino!

Oh, completely agree on this one! I guess I forgot Floaroma because it wasn't memorable plot-wise. But I loved the ambience of that town and its backdoor flower garden.

I've heard tales of letting a shiny get away because the player thought that the game was glitching. I've heard of players using the master ball on the first pokemon they encounter. Me? My first game ever was Sapphire back in 2004, and I'm guilty of: 1. Not saving before battling Kyogre in...

Oh whoops. Well shows what I know. :)

The name says it all. Although I also like Passimian's design. I personally didn't like the three simi monkeys, so in my eyes these new guys are the first primates since gen IV.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they fix the Missingno. glitch for the VC release? I can see no reason that they wouldn't have.

Why does Phione exist.

I'll say what I said when people started talking about the Hoenn remakes: I'd much prefer a sequel. And I think others would too, if Game Freak just developed and released it. Unfortunately, crafting a whole new plot for a sequel probably isn't doable while developing entirely new games (Sun...

Out of all the fancy mechanics they could have implemented, it's one of the simplest ones that stole players' hearts, it seems. Pokemon following you around was the best thing ever. I also loved the updated visuals, a high point being the leaves in the Ecruteak tower pathway. Another cool...
