Fallout 4, soon to be Skyrim this Friday. Not to mention all the essays and dissertation stuff I need to do.

Pretty much just transferring and preparing Pokemon from 3rd gen all the way to 6th, so they can be brought over to S/M when possible. And currently rewatching the anime in Japanese, halfway through Advanced. Hoping to catch up completely so I can watch S/M's anime and not have to wait for it to be dubbed.

I restarted Omega Ruby and have been breeding in Y. I opened a Pokédex completion service on a small Facebook group, so I'm breeding extras lol. As the release date draws closer I'' going to experiment with making malasadas to give out on release night, provided that my GameStop does midnight.

Can i use PokeBank and eshop in my country??

I'm pretty sure you'll connect to the American servers so long as you have a US 3DS, regardless of what country you're connecting from.

Also, if you're getting a new 3DS and haven't played the previous games, in addition to the RBY downloads, I would also consider XY and ORAS. They're all great games.

I have played Pokemon Black twice, Pokemon White 2, Pokemon X, Alpha Sapphire and Diamon all in preparation lol.

SightlessReality October 25th, 2016 6:30 PM

Been playing multiple Pokemon Fan Games along with my normal youtube watching routine.

I've been working on my OR nuzlocke but I'm about to be finished. However my copy of DBXV2 should be here tomorrow so I'll have plenty to keep me busy until next month!

I also want to go back and replay RBY and complete most of the dex.

CidHazard October 25th, 2016 9:05 PM

Playing a crap ton of Paladins and League of Legends, checking up on the demo's time based events, and re playing the Dot Hack// Franchise...

Since you're getting a US 3DS, I suppose you'll have to fill your eshop account with dollars. I don't know what credit card providers you might have, or whether any of those would be accepted by the eshop, but I'm wondering if a non-American billing address might cause problems. My guess is that you're best bet would be to buy an eshop card in dollars (which you could order over the internet) and use that to add money to your account, or you could get some other sort of prepaid card (like a prepaid visa or mastercard maybe) and use that. I haven't ever had to do anything like that myself, so I'm not sure which billing options would or wouldn't work, but I'm confident that the eshop cards that you can buy would work.

Altairis October 25th, 2016 9:37 PM

Crying and lamenting online about how the game isn't out yet. As the Daily peeps, I express in the Skype chat almost every day about how excited I am for this game :X

Ok thnx a lot for your help.

Not really preparing for SM actually... just going about my life day to day and going through some pretty tough times right now with work and my family. But I'm still excited for these games, very much so.

moon October 26th, 2016 10:50 AM

tbh I've been mostly avoiding this section of PC and avoiding any talk about the games hahaha. I've seen most officially released media, but I one day just decided to not look at any spoilers (leaks) until I played the game myself. Since it comes out several days later in Europe though, it'll be haaaaaaaard ugh

Iron Tiff October 26th, 2016 1:34 PM

I've also been mass breeding Selfdestruct Munchlaxes. Snorlax + Selfdestruct + PANCAKE = profit! XD

Rengoku October 26th, 2016 9:22 PM

So I restarted my Yellow version on my 3DS to pass time, and because the first time round I did not went ahead to capture my glitch-Mew. :)

I was just done with Giovanni last midnight!

hijhiysonikku October 29th, 2016 3:40 PM

Been playing Black and soon I will play X. Haven't finished X.

Xerecies October 29th, 2016 3:41 PM

Nothing much really. Just biding time doing the usual stuff I do.

Rain October 31st, 2016 3:59 PM

I have completed my living dex, successfully hatched a few masuda method shinies, and I'm now working to complete VC Pokemon Yellow.

SaniOKh November 1st, 2016 4:32 AM

Now that my second living dex (that I'm planning to transfer to Gen 7 once the Bank is updated) is complete, I'm restarting all of the Gen 6 games. I'm playing the first game out of four, X.

I did prepare in advance: I bred Pokémon for a well-balanced team in each version (I transferred the eggs to the newly started game) and saved all my Lucky Eggs from previous playthroughs.

I won't move my living dex to the cartridge for instant Pokédex completion yet: while there's still stuff to do, Leagues to beat and Legendary Pokémon to catch, I'll act as if I didn't have a living dex and just catch the Pokémon I see.
