"The person below me..."

[Zeostar]

Not even close :(

The person below me has encountered a shiny and under poor circumstances failed to obtain it.

 

[_confused_piplup_]

false! I found a shiny a couple of times, but I somehow always managed to catch it lol.

Tpbm has never used a Revival Herb.

 

[Roni]

False. Use it plenty of times for team members who don't need max happiness to evolve (so pretty much anyone except Zubat/Golbat).

Person below me always buys PokeMart items in multiples of 5 or 10.

 

[ReKoil]

Always? No, so false.
I do often buy stuff in batches of 10, but by no means always as it depends on the money I have as well as how many I have in my bag as I sometimes will buy a weird number just to round the items in my bag off (like I have 27 Ultra Balls in my bag and I buy 23 to round it to 50).
I have also often bought stuff in way bigger numbers like 40 or 50 of something =p

TPBM usually sells the vitamins they find during a playthrough.

 

[_confused_piplup_]

No, never: they're useful lol. If I do, just one or two of them.

Tpbm has replayed a pokemon game at least 5 times.

 

[ReKoil]

if it has to be the same game, just barely false lol
If the opposite version counts too, then yeah. ORAS & X/Y =3

Tpbm has at least once tried to use a Shedinja on one of their playthrough teams.

 

[Zeostar]

Yep. It...doesn't actually work smoothly, especially in it's own debut generation. (they were like "hey everyone should have dark type coverage")!

Person below me got bored of a pokemon game before finishing it and never picked it up again.

 

[_confused_piplup_]

False, I have always finished the games. It happened, for example replaying pokemon BW, but I still completed those a couple of times before that happened.

Tpbm always chooses the starter of the same type (for example: you always choose the water type starter in each game [me lol])

 

[ReKoil]

False.
First starter in gen 1 was either Squirtle or Bulbasaur. In gen 3 the Fire starter, gen 4 the Water starter, Gen 5 either Snivy or Tepig. Gen 6 and 7 were the Fire starters. In gen 8 I picked the Grass starter. I skip gen 2 as I only played that as VC, so idk if it counts (Chikorita in crystal VC).
And on any subsequent playthroughs, such as in the opposing game, I pick one of the others that I didn't pick first time round =3

Tpbm has tried a playthrough with only Pokemon of a single type.

 

[Orion☆]

Yes! Mono-Ghost run in Ultra Sun, and considering doing an Electric-only run as well, but no idea in which game (or fan game.)

The person below me has at least 6 (six) Shiny Pokémon, enough to make a full team.

 

[Zeostar]

I'm not sure if this is referring to a single save file, but I think this would be a no in that case. I don't think I've ever caught more than two on a file, aside from Radical Red in which I was getting absurd luck.

Person below has used a middle stage evolution for an entire playthrough.

 

[ReKoil]

Hmmm... close, but not quite. I long ago once had a Boldore on my team not realizing it was a trade evo.
Didn't box that thing until I was at the E4 xD
So I had it for almost the entire game, but not the entirety of the playthrough.

Tpbm has softlocked themself at least once in a mainline Pokemon game.

 

[Orion☆]

No, not really. I did believe I had softlocked myself at the Distortion World in Platinum, but I got it sorted out.

The person below me has Electric as one of their Top 5 favourite types.

 

[Zeostar]

Unfortunately no.

I would list my favorites as:

Water
Fairy
Ice
Dragon
Normal

Person below rarely uses fighting types.

 

[ReKoil]

True.
I did not long ago use a Medicham on my SP team, but other than that the last time I had a Fighting type on my team was way back in Emerald lol

Tpbm dislikes most regional forms.

 

[Orion☆]

False, actually. It's an even split for me at the moment - some I really like (most of them Alolan forms), some I don't care for, some I really hate. Nevertheless, I appreciate the spirit of trying to bring outdated designs (like the Kanto ones) more in line with modern Pokémon design standards. We'll see how things go when the ScaVio trailer releases tomorrow.

The person below me will not buy ScaVio on release day.

 

[Zeostar]

That's probably true. I'm usually not in a hurry to buy games on release. I did get Brilliant Diamond at midnight. Platinum would have been my first Pokemon game, but our family was in poverty so I missed Gen 4 and 5. Being able to purchase the remake right away felt sort of nice.

Person below can remember more than 80% of pokemon names if looking at images.

 

[ReKoil]

Probably true, but I don't intend to go verify that =p

Tpbm wants a new type to be added.

 

[Orion☆]

Yes, but only if it serves as more than just a Band-Aid to counter overpowered types. Most Fairy-types failed miserably at it, with a few exceptions. And while I do like the idea of a Sound-type due to Pokémon Xenoverse, I believe it could have been better implemented in that game too - not just as an extra weakness for Fairy-types, but as a unique type in its own right.

The person below me planned on getting Scarlet until they saw Miraidon and changed their mind.

 

[Fact Checking Gardevoir]

It's too soon for me to know if I will get one of these games, but... is that just me, or is Miraidon wearing an headphone ?

The person below me once caught a Legendary pokémon with a Luxeball (or any other pokéball level Ball).
