Pokemon Discussion

I wish there were a feasible way to mirror PokéAPI and then include data from fan-made pokémon from the fangames.

Was playing LeafGreen today and randomly ran into a shiny Zubat.

Pokémon is, apparently, the highest grossing media franchise in history. I was just looking this stuff up a while back and was surprised at just how dominant it is as an IP.

@ANoobis
That wouldn't surprise me. It also over 20 years old.

I just remember when I was fist playing Pokemon HeartGold I asked myself how I'm I going to take on Whitney. I decided I should use Infernape. So I traded a Chimchar egg over to HeartGold and here's the biggest shock when the egg hatched in the game instead of have my Pokemon Diamond Trainer as OT it had my HeartGold Trainer as the OT. Which made me realize I was going to be able to use it against her.

I find it strange that Nidorina and Nidoqueen can't breed and yet Nidoran Female can.

25 Years of Memories Pokemon turns 25 this year.

Reminder that in the anime, it's canon that Ash is like 27 years old and still goes on long extensive adventures with unsupervised little girls.

@Humble Oriathan
Yeah that's so true. Although I wonder why the anime never aged him up.

@coolmaster43232
So they can keep having an anime.

@coolmaster43232
What's weird is that they keep saying that the next Ash is supposed to be a "new" Ash who's 10 years old and different from the previous Ash that was being followed in the last generation, but then they make him recall events that have happened since Season 1, and someone proved that at least 17 or 18 years have passed in the anime based on the position of the sun, the time of day, and the seasonal changes in each episode.

@coolmaster43232
Same here.

@Acres
Had a feeling.

I Pokemon Diamond I have a Modest nature Marowak. I know that's a horrible nature but I kept it anyway.

Wouldn't it be cool to have a show where Ash actually did grow up?
Like,the show starts out with some new kid going on his first Adventure,deep in the woods he narrowly misses catching some Pokemon,when suddenly he hears a voice behind him. He turns to see Ash,now an adult(with a beard?)assuring him that he just needs some more practice. The kid recognizes Ash,but before he can say anything, Ash flies away on some legendary.

@Dex Stewart
That would be cool.

I feel pain right now with trying to get Pickup to give me a Hidden Power TM in LeafGreen.

@coolmaster43232
Use 6 meowths and pray for luck.

@Acres
Your Right should take my other Pickup ability Pokemon. Went a did that My team has 2 Linoone and 4 Meowth now.

@coolmaster43232
Any luck?

@Acres
Got it pretty quickly and also got Nugget and a PP Up through it as well.
