LOOK WHAT I FOUND HIDDEN IN POKÉMON HOME!!!

[melonthesprigatito]

I can't wait until Legends Z-A comes out and Furfrou is more easily obtainable so the GTS market can be flooded and we'll finally be rid of this bullshit.

I'm pretty sure this trade is nearly impossible! Pokémon Bank is defunct so you can't transfer any Furfrou from Gen 6, and the only other way to get a Furfrou is to randomly stumble across one in Pokémon Go. And in order to get enough Furfrou Candy to a) change it's trim and b) GET IT TO LEVEL 91+ could take months! Years!

And there's SO MANY OF THESE TRADES OUT THERE.

I’m really enjoy collecting stickers and wallpapers in Pokémon Home, but no one sees them but myself and my husband! So I thought it would be fun to share my Home account with y’all in hope of making some friends! I’m not really interested in trading, I just wanna see other people’s stickers! If you’re interested, please feel free to send me a request☺️

I was checking the GTS in pokémon home

Tf did it do to deserve this?

[kisaxiii]

Trying to decide which Pokédex to complete next since I just finished Hisui. Unfortunately I don’t have the money to get the DLC for ScarVio so that one’s out of the question but I have all the other games listed and their DLC if applicable.

Difficulty ratings:

Sinnoh

✅ Brilliant Diamond

❌ Shining Pearl

Dex completion: 7/150

Game completion: Unsure

Thoughts:

Since I only have the one game I will have to trade/breed the game specific Pokémon, and trade for a BD/SP specific Palkia. I don’t remember if I sped through the game or not, as it both sucked as a remake, and came out close to PLA, which I was much more interested in playing. This will be the most annoying to complete for these reasons. Gonna be hard to get a trade for Palkia and I might have to play through most of the game depending on if I finished it or not. Will be a very time intensive completion.

Difficulty rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Galar

✅ Sword

✅ Shield

✅ DLC (both games)

Dex completion: 151/400, 48/210, 86/210

Game completion: Finished (both games and DLC)

Thoughts:

This will be easy to complete since I have complete coverage from both games and All of the legendary Pokémon collected already (they’re in my living dex). The hardest part is honestly the sheer amount I have to get. While there will be overlap between the technically 3 different dex I have to complete, there’s still a LOT of Pokémon I’ll have to catch/breed/evolve to complete them, and I’ll have to jump between the 2 games to do it, which will be annoying.

Difficulty rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Kanto

✅ Let’s Go Eevee

❌ Let’s Go Pikachu

Dex completion: 12/150

Game completion: Finished

Thoughts:

I definitely caught all the Legendary Pokémon already, though have apparently not transferred them to home yet, so realistically I have way more than 12/150 already. Not having LGP means I’ll have to breed/trade any game specific Pokémon but that should be an easy task. This will definitely be the easiest to complete, I think, albeit a little time consuming.

Difficulty rating: ⭐️

Honestly Hisui was the biggest pain in the ass because of the game mechanics (space distortions/outbreaks) but it was also the only one where I could catch 100% of everything from the one game without needing to trade. That being said, there’s also no breeding in that game, so I couldn’t just breed the harder to get Pokémon. Again, on a positive note though, the reason I chose to finish it first was because it was the game I had the closest completion in. I think when I started I had like 110/242 already, so I had like 130 Pokemon to catch.

Finally dragged my Sword and Shield team out of the switch I don't use anymore and into Pokémon Home!

[lily-ldsgg]

IM FREE

For context I’ve been trying to complete the home living dex and since the element monkeys are locked off the switch and I only have pansear in pogo I’ve been trading on the gts all day

[superdoghi]

I have a problem

[championkoma]

I am once again back on my pokemon bullshit.

Over the past 10 years or so, my love for pokemon has been fading with each new release. Starting with Sun and Moon, I began to feel like pokemon had become too kid friendly for me, as I just graduated high school and was truly beginning my adult life. I enjoyed the story of Sun and Moon but did not enjoy the games mechanics in the totems rather than gyms and what not and did not enjoy the region itself so much. After that, ultra Sun and moon released and I bought it but never even beat it until this year because I just couldn’t get into it. I enjoyed the Lets Go games but wish there was more battling involved so I could see my boy mega blastoise more in Kanto. I was quite excited for Pokemon Sword and Shield but once I began playing I quickly grew bored of it, can’t really place any reason why but it just didn’t stick. I had fun with Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl but they’re nothing to write home about. Then legends arceus released and I was super hyped for it, and now I still have not finished it. I think it’s the best idea the pokemon company has had in years but I can only play for about 30 minutes before getting bored. Now with Scarlet and Violet, I was not hyped in the slightest but bought scarlet anyways and actually ended up loving the story but thought it was an ugly game, the first dlc was fun and I looked forward to the second but once it came out, I quickly gave up once encountering the trials.

Overall, I figured I’ve just outgrown Pokemon but once IOS allowed emulators, I decided to get all the older games again and quickly felt the nostalgia and love for the series in full again.

The Delta Emulator for GB/GBA/DS.

I downloaded delta first, as it was the emulator I was most familiar with. I got all the GB and GBA games first but quickly wanted to try SoulSilver for DS again. At this point I’m not too far but still open it up and grind whenever I have time.

ArcEmu for Apple Watch

I then learned of ArcEmu that allows you to play Gb/GBA games on an Apple Watch. I love this idea and downloaded FireRed for it but don’t really use it for anything, but enjoy knowing that I have it with me if I ever leave my phone.

Folium

An emulator for 3DS games has been fun to tinker with but doesn’t run the best on my iPhone 13 mini. Weirdly, Pokemon Omega Ruby seems to run better than Pokemon X.

Overall, I just like to tinker with the emulators on iOS and prefer the DS and 3ds games on emulators, for some reason GB and GBA feels wrong on phones.

Pokémon Go

I have been a day 1 pokemon Go rural player, over the years I have mostly just used it for transferring shiny pokemon to my main switch games. At this point I’m pretty much done with the game as they continue to make the game a pain for rural players who don’t want to spend money. I have transferred all of my shinies to home and most of the pokemon but will still check the game whenever I’m in new areas and whatnot.

Pokemon TCG Pocket

I started playing the new Pokemon TCG Pocket game and im liking it so far. I’ve never been much of a Pokemon TCG player, just a collector and this game scratches the itch for a casual collector like me who just likes to buy a booster pack occasionally here and there. I pulled a full art Mewtwo card which was cool.

Pokémon Sapphire/GameBoy Micro

About 2 years ago, I bought a GameBoy Advanced and a couple of Pokemon Repro carts. Eventually I pulled the trigger on a legitimate copy of Pokemon Sapphire. I work full time and do full time college so I don’t have much time to actually play. Eventually I decided to get a GameBoy micro, and decided to go for a cheaper and more beat up so that I can take it with me everywhere and not feel bad if it gets beat up.

I have loved having a GameBoy micro with me. I still don’t get to play as much as I’d like but it makes lunch breaks more fun at work and something about playing on actual hardware feels so much better.

Pokemon and the impact it has had on me

I have been a lifelong Pokemon fan, many of my earliest memories include Pokemon. I watched Pokemon the first movie probably over 100 times. I collected and traded Pokemon cards on the playground with many of my classmates. I received Pokemon firered as my first Pokemon game when I was 10, around the time Pokemon platinum was released and put hundreds of hours into it. Once, Pokemon X and Y released I made it my goal to complete the pokedex and was successful. I probably put 300-500 hours per game back in the day and now usually don’t even spend 100 hours on the modern games. Maybe I’m just a grumpy old fan but to me it feels like modern Pokemon is missing the heart that old Pokemon had.

Anyways, just figured I’d make a post for the hell of it and just chat about Pokémon.

[pugdoggaymer]

This was more of a pain to complete than I thought it would, but I did it!

[royalxiii]

So this implies we’ll get more for the other dexes? I hope so!

Put PoGo shinies on wonder box ✨

Absolute worst thing about Pokémon Home

I’d love to register all the Pokemon I’ve caught in various games, but having to manually deposit a mon to get it to resister instead of the app just communicating with the game data is very user unfriendly. Way too tedious

[bigboobshaunt]

Question for ppl who've dabbled in Pokémon Home more than me:

Say I had the full version of it in the past and had deposited over a box's worth of Pokémon in it, and then the subscription expired - would the Pokémon exceeding the 30 mark be in a sort of limbo pending the reactivation of the service?

I ask this mainly because I've been trying to figure out where some of my Pokémon went, and I'm not 100% sure I moved them to Home, but I also highly doubt I would have deleted the files from the Gen VII games they were in...

I noticed a pattern that they are mons that don't show up in Galar, so that's why I think they might be in Home, just beyond the basic box. They do show up in Home's pokédex, and for some species, I don't think I ever raised or transferred in another besides the missing mons, but they don't have a history of nicknames or even differentiate between regular and shiny in there (which might have made a difference in my case).

Weirder still, I haven't found them through the history section so it all remains inconclusive. If it helps any, I have 3 pokémon deposited right now and Home identifies 113 "residents" which is what made me think they might still be in there.

Now that I've finally caught a shiny Glalie, I will no longer be able to reproduce this bug in Pokémon Home where I have shiny Mega Glalie registered despite not owning a shiny Glalie,which is why I decided to document it with screenshots.

Also, Dyanamax Glalie looks like the moon from Majoras Mask.

ANOTHER SILLY!!!
