Yessss. For my starter, I'm going to pick the green monkey thing, I think.

I think grass pokemon kinda suck in general, but picking them usually makes my pokemon adventure more challenging.

I always turn off the EXP share when I play. There's nothing wrong with using it, but I think turning it off makes things more challenging as well. It's kinda like choosing "hard mode," I guess?

I think I'll pick Sobble, the water pokemon, it's supposed to be a timid one that hides a lot and kind of reminds me of myself lol

I'm excited for sword and shield too. But I just dont know anymore. You know? It takes them forever to come out with a pretty much half new pokemon game. In between, the games are all rehashed with different names. I'm not sure if I am gonna get it or not. I have to think hard about it.

My favorite Pokemon game ever is definitely Leaf green/fire red.

Yeah, that's true. Though in all fairness, I don't think it's possible for it to be worse than Sun/Moon and US/UM. lol. (Not that they were *bad* per se, but the whole "trials" thing was off-putting...)

I dislike how the new equivalent of Team Rocket is called "Team Yell." ugh. Who tf thinks of these names?

[Blue_Bird]

Yes, it will definitely be a lot better than Sun/Moon and US/UM from what's been shown, it looks really amazing actually. I really really really disliked sun and moon. Glad I'm not the only one lol

I agree. I guess it just left a very bad taste in my mouth.

nice!

I stopped playing once I got to the 8th Gym. Don't remember why I stopped, but that was back in October (or whenever Pokemon Let's Go came out). I should pick it up again.

Very cool. What kind of video games are you designing? Like pixel art or some 3D rendering stuff?

How'd your class go?

It's a 2D design class. 3D design comes later. Mostly Wacom and Photoshop this semester.

That's awesome! I hope you enjoy the class(es).

Well, it's Labor Day weekend... and there are sales... lots of sales...

I'm thinking about buying myself a 2nd TV... one for video games mostly. I have a TV in my living room already, but I want a smaller one for my bedroom so I can play video games whenever I can't sleep. lol. My "video game TV."

[childofchaos831]

I liked the first class a lot! Today is the 2nd one. Just pulled into campus.

Played Minecraft tonight, building a little house

Playing a mix of Pokemon Gold (the OG one) and Zelda: Link's Awakening DX. I'm about to face Champion Lance in Pokemon Gold. Haven't gotten too far into Link's Awakening.

I don't think I can justify buying the new Link's Awakening @ $59.99 on Switch. I mean, it's a great game and all, but $59.99 for a not first, but second remaster? I'd pay $39.99 tops.

Playing Pokemon Y, going through it with EXP Share turned OFF

Playing Lego Harry Potter

Yeah, that's the way to do it! I love it with exp share off.

I've heard that Nintendo is coming out with something called "Pokemon Home" where you can transfer pokemon from the 3DS games to a cloud and access them from the Switch, so I'm pretty excited for that. If I recall correctly, you just upload all your pokemon from the 3DS to the poke bank and then the poke bank connects to "Pokemon Home."

I have a bunch of rare pokemon that I wouldn't mind importing to Sword/Shield, especially since I did a lot of grinding w/ exp share off...

Finished buying all the clothing and accessory items in Lets Go Pikachu

That is awesome! Much more like X and Y. The outfits in Sun/Moon and US/UM sucked. Lazy design. These new outfits make it seem like the devs put much more effort into them this time.

The Pokémon camp sounds interesting. The curry thing makes me want Indian food. lol. I'm a sucker for Indian food. 😬
