I'm going for the Kanto or Sinnoh cap.

Hikamaru September 14th, 2017 5:13 PM

Getting Hoenn, not just because it was my first generation playing the games, but also my birthday falls during its week and it would be a nice birthday present for my trainer in Moon.

That sounds like something a Gloria House member would say. You sure you're not a double agent?

Sirfetch’d September 14th, 2017 5:16 PM

Maybe I am eyes emoji

I have both Sun and Moon so I will probably restart Moon multiple times to get them all.

Hikamaru September 14th, 2017 6:02 PM

The movesets starting from Hoenn Hat are definitely worth it, since you know it has Iron Tail.

jombii September 14th, 2017 6:36 PM

I'm not getting any of the events lol. I always reset my game for my monotype runs

Sirfetch’d September 15th, 2017 6:57 AM

I love Pikachu so I feel like I have to do these events haha

Sothis September 15th, 2017 8:15 PM

I've missed so many event pokemon because I'm so lazy to get on my 3ds and do it lol

Esper September 15th, 2017 10:47 PM

Yeah, same. If they make it available for an unlimited time I'll get it, but if not... eh.

Sheep September 16th, 2017 4:59 AM

I haven't played SuMo in ages. Makes me sad since I loved it a lot, but for some reason I just don't have the energy to play as actively as I used to. I ended AS with like, 350 hours, and Sun with only 70ish. idk maybe USUM will change that but I guess I've been too busy?? Don't want to say disinteresed because that'd only be 5% true but yea ):

blue September 16th, 2017 5:31 AM

i'm looking forward to the eshop release of gold and silver, that'll be the next pokemon game i'll be playing.

Sothis September 16th, 2017 10:33 AM

I lost all my gen 1-2 games when my mother threw them out ;;

Latios360 September 16th, 2017 12:38 PM

I lost my first Gold cartridge due to a dead battery, and I don't know if my first Silver cartridge works. I have two Silver games, on the count that I lost one before, so... If my cartridge is where I think it is, then I might test it later. Knowing my luck, it's lost in my old bedroom over at my mom's house. My 2nd Gold cartridge, I bought at a 2nd hand store, and of course, the save feature doesn't work, either...

Sothis September 16th, 2017 2:06 PM

I could get new ones from like amazon or smth but I have the remakes which I also like.

EC September 16th, 2017 2:31 PM

I'm sure I could find my copies of Gold & Silver somewhere in the basement.

Sothis September 16th, 2017 2:51 PM

See my mother has thing about throwing out other people's stuff, does it constantly.

Esper September 16th, 2017 2:55 PM

I'd murder someone if they threw out anything of mine.

blue September 16th, 2017 2:56 PM

I've got my Crystal cartridge that works as far as I remember

I was kinda miffed because I had a green version straight from Japan too!

Latios360 September 16th, 2017 7:34 PM

Just found my Gameboy games, only to find that my Gold, Silver, and Crystal, save files are, indeed, ALL dead! How heartbreaking....especially since Silver was my first ever Pokemon game! They worked fine just a couple years ago!;-; Had to be expected eventually, I guess, considering how old they are. At least with the VC versions, we won't have this problem, I hope!

Radiating September 16th, 2017 8:00 PM

I haven't booted up my old Pokemon Blue...although I'm sure the battery must be dead by now. Haha, the VC versions will be fine, since save data will be saved to the 3DS (or SD card?) memory.

Tsutarja September 16th, 2017 8:37 PM

Last time I checked both my Red and Blue Versions still work :D

curiousnathan September 16th, 2017 11:09 PM

I've kept all my old cartridges. Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Crystal, Emerald, Sapphire. They're all in working condition too which is pretty good. They just gather dust in my wardrobe though haha. I've never really had the urge to play them again. I keep them more for nostalgia.

smocks September 17th, 2017 1:44 AM

im not sure how excited I am for USUM but I always get a copy of each version on release day so there's that

pkmin3033 September 17th, 2017 2:31 AM

Demon Gaze II is coming out on the 17th and I've been after that for ages, so braving Ultra Moon will probably take a back seat to that.

I will probably buy it at launch with one of those Pokeball 2DS XLs if I can afford it, though. Because I think that might just be the best special edition handheld Nintendo have ever given us and I want it.

I should sell my old cartridges really; I don't play them any more and they're worth a small fortune on eBay...

This will be the first time since Black 2 & White 2 where I only get one version, not both.

blue September 17th, 2017 9:12 AM

i think i'll end up with both eventually, but i'll just be getting ultra sun first.

Radiating September 17th, 2017 9:22 AM

I'll probably just get Ultra Moon.

Sothis September 17th, 2017 9:25 AM

I'll get both as usual ^^

curiousnathan September 17th, 2017 9:30 AM

They've really overdone Pokemon now imo. I don't want to be the negative nancy, but I really do prefer the "traditional" Pokemon (i.e. Gen 4 and prior).

pkmin3033 September 17th, 2017 10:23 AM

I can't say I've been particularly pleased with any Pokemon game since Platinum either.

back in my day, traditional pokemon were the first 150 only

Sothis September 17th, 2017 4:02 PM

I think there's nice ones from every gen!

Gabri September 17th, 2017 4:21 PM

Probably idk, I paid pretty much no attention from gen4 onwards

blue September 18th, 2017 3:30 AM

gen 7 is great

pkmin3033 September 18th, 2017 5:06 AM

I don't know if I had less fun on Moon or Black at this point tbh...

Esper September 18th, 2017 8:59 AM

What, Black was a fun game. Can't wait for the remakes. Is Unova confirmed yet?

Radiating September 18th, 2017 9:44 AM

Gen 4 bestest gen

pkmin3033 September 18th, 2017 10:36 AM

Black almost put me off Pokemon for good. If Ultra Moon doesn't make up for Moon Gen VII will probably succeed...

Sothis September 18th, 2017 10:41 AM

I liked gen 5, I don't know why it's so unpopular.

Gabri September 18th, 2017 5:04 PM

Unless they do an entire generation based on Cthulhu and the remainder of the Mythos, I will not play it.

colress and grimsley were in sun & moon so basically yes

string555 September 19th, 2017 9:14 AM

Gen 4 has been my favorite, mainly because I spent the most time in those games.

I actually haven't played the newest 2 gens yet. This time around, instead of researching into the games before playing them, I'm going to let everything be a complete surprise. It seems more fun that way. :O

EC September 19th, 2017 12:29 PM

Excellent news; I don't have a kidney stone.

Esper September 19th, 2017 12:58 PM

Bad news: school down the street had a bomb threat.
Good news: everyone evacuated, no explosions. Possibly a hoax?

EC September 19th, 2017 1:03 PM

A bomb threat was an annual thing at my high school. Sometimes daily!

Sothis September 19th, 2017 1:12 PM

We had one at my HS, fun times.

Esper September 19th, 2017 1:15 PM

Hoax or not, I wouldn't want to be back in high school these days.

Was/is just a muscular problem. Only did the renal ultrasound because I have had kidney stones in the past.

blue September 19th, 2017 2:06 PM

i'd hate to have kidney stones, they sound really painful

EC September 19th, 2017 2:50 PM

They were. I have a high tolerance for pain though, so I only needed Tylenol to keep the pain down.

Sothis September 19th, 2017 3:23 PM

My mom has one but its non obstructive so its just sitting there :/

Somewhere_ September 19th, 2017 4:55 PM

my grandfather had one... apparently it was very, very painful

Sothis September 19th, 2017 7:07 PM

Yeah when I had pains in my back the doctor was like "you'd be in the worst pain in your life if it was a stone"

EC September 20th, 2017 11:26 AM

I'm not sure there is anything tastier to the tongue than freshly brewed iced tea.

Speaking of which I might treat myself to a cheeky Pot Noodle.

Sothis September 20th, 2017 6:44 PM

I had mcnuggets today, I know they're bad but I still like em

string555 September 20th, 2017 9:41 PM

I don't know what time it is for other PCers, but it's somewhat late here and I'm still awake, so I though I would tell a little bedtime story. :3

Spoiler:

This story has been passed down from generation to generation of ants. I have it in good with them, so they shared their story with me. :3

There was once a colony of ants. They only gathered enough food for what they really needed. But one day, they had an idea. If they gathered more food than what they thought they needed, they could live through the harsh winter with no problem. So they gathered and they gathered. By winter time, they had so much extra food, it started to spoil. They didn't want their work to go to waste, so they ended up producing more ants than normal. By next season, they had to gather even more food due to the extra ants. So they gathered and they gathered. Again, due to having even more workers gathering food, they ended up with extra food that was starting to spoil. So they produced more ants. And they gathered and gathered. By the next winter time, their land was so barren, they no longer could gather any food. They survived for a while with what they had, but in the end, they all died off.

So the obvious moral of the story is that you shouldn't take more than what you really need.

not going to lie, Wendy's burgers taste pretty good and you dont feel like crap for eating something horrible afterwards.

See, us from the UK don’t have this luxury and it’s literally a choice between McDonalds or Burger King.

The one thing i’ve always wanted to try is Taco Bell, is it as good as everyone says?

blue September 21st, 2017 6:21 AM

I prefer the burgers from Burger King but I still go McDonalds more often just because there's literally like 3 right in my area.

Taco Bell is NOT good. Idk about taste, but I've heard many reports of people feeling sick to their stomach afterwards. If you want a smelly bathroom, eat Taco Bell.

EC September 21st, 2017 7:20 AM

Taco Bell is going to start selling alcohol soon.

blue September 21st, 2017 7:31 AM

Never been to Taco Bell, had mixed feelings on what people have said about it. Might just try it when I visit the states this year.

Nick September 21st, 2017 7:34 AM

My eating out options for fast food has shifted to strictly fast casual, where the options are significantly more healthy and the majority of the ingredients are fresh. Panera Bread, Saladworks, Pei Wei, and Chipotle are staples in my lunch outings.

I still crave Whoppers, though. Those are the best burgers.

That’s disappointing to hear, althougha bathroom will always be smelly so why not! Haha.

string555 September 21st, 2017 9:25 AM

I've never had any real problems eating taco bell food, and it does taste good, at least to me.

I haven't been to a Wendy's in a long time, I wish I had one closer to me. :/

The thing I don't get is why so many people absolutely love In N Out. Don't get me wrong, their food tastes good, but it's just not that amazing (Not to mention overpriced).

And on a similar note, ever since minimum wage increased, fast food prices are ridiculous. :/

Why, how expensive is it over there? Burger King seems to be the most expensive for us, but in Maccies you’re only looking at 5-7 quid for a large meal.

Sothis September 21st, 2017 11:11 AM

McDonalds is on the expensive end here, Tim Horton's is cheaper.

EC September 21st, 2017 1:51 PM

Taking a break until next week from all potato based foods.

> only

£5-7 is a huge amount in my mind for one single meal which is supposed to be from a cheap fast food place. Many of my friends would agree too that while Maccies is convenient and maybe almost tasty at times, it's by no stretch of the imagination cheap. Then again I'm still kinda used to student budgeting and forget that I can splash out slightly more now so whatever, but I'd never associate Maccies with "cheap" in this country.

I'll agree with you though that BK is mad expensive, with KFC (the best of the three hands down) close behind.

Hahaha yeah I guess you’re right there, I was using it more as a point of reference they could use if they replied. I can’t remember the last time I actually bought a large meal from Maccies - everyone knows you just use those 1.99 Big Mac + Medium Fries vouchers you can get pretty much anywhere.

I usually chuck a double cheeseburger on top and it’s like £3.50 in total, which is probably why I think it to be so cheap.

KFC is the dogs doodars but the fries flop it for me every time.

Esper September 21st, 2017 4:56 PM

Airport food is so terribly overpriced. It's as bad as the concessions counter at the movie theatre.

EC September 21st, 2017 4:56 PM

Sothis September 21st, 2017 4:58 PM

I once paid $40 for two plush lobsters at the airport here because I collect lobster plush.
So yea, expensive.

kinesis September 21st, 2017 5:00 PM

Yeah it’s ridiculous. In the airport nearest me the cheapest neck pillow was £30.

Esper September 21st, 2017 5:03 PM

Granted, it's been a while since I've been to McDonalds, but I still think of it as the kind of place where you should be able to get more than one burger for $6.

kinesis September 21st, 2017 5:05 PM

A double cheese here is £1.50, so that’s 4 for £6 which is pretty banging if you ask me.
