Darn! I wanted to see your flag and stuff!

Have you ever built an entire wooden structure in Minecraft only to have it burned down by a single fire from a lightning storm?

[Cheza]

My flag? It's this thing, with colours reduced, downsized to 50x50 (I think it was), tidied up, and recreated in the pattern design tool.





...Yeah, DumbScape infects almost everything I do. >->






And nope, can't remember it happening at least.
Closest I think was that one time when I built a thing out of wool somewhat close-ish to a lava pool.
It caught fire and my mod-added pet fox perished in the flames.

[White Wolf Guardian]

I still like that flag anyways!

That fox's demise is depressing ;(

Have you ever actually caught all of the pokemon in a single pokemon game?

[Cheza]

Yeah, to this day I still feel like the game was cheating there. >->
I was pretty far away from the lava and everything.
AND WOOL ISN'T EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE ALL THAT FLAMMABLE ANYWAY!!
_{Or so I'm told...}





I've completed a few regional dexes, but I've never truly managed to catch them all.


Unless Pokémon Moon's extremely slimmed down dex counts, of course. >->
In which case, yes, I caught them all in Pokémon Moon!

[White Wolf Guardian]

I'm still mad about the Pokedex in Sun and Moon .

Do you think that Sun and Moon are a "good start" or a general wrong direction?

[Cheza]

While I don't think the new games are all bad, I don't like where they're going and Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon's Rotom dex is the most annoying sidekick I've ever had the misfortune of encountering in a video game. >-> HERE'S SOME ADVICE YOU DIDN'T ASK FOR!!!! :D:D:D:D

Alola is no doubt beautiful and many of the new features are pretty nice, but everything just feels so limited and boxed in when compared to some of the earlier games.
It was nice that they dared to try something new with the whole island challenge thing, but personally I'd love for them to go back to the usual stuff next time.


It'd also be nice if they could skip the three hour long tutorials/make the tutorial optional. And stop assuming I can't think. Perhaps some sort of age-feature could be added too? Like, the character model and dialogue/difficulty changes slightly depending on if you're above a certain age? Not by too much, but just enough to keep older fans from feeling like dinosaurs.


The lack of a national dex also kinda makes the games feel even more "empty" in a sense.
I hope it'll return some day, but I guess not. *sob*


These changes worries me, but I won't give up hope just yet.
Gen 8 will tell.

[White Wolf Guardian]

I'm really hoping that Gen 8 fixes a lot of these issues.

Do you like the dance moves of the gang members in Gen 7 ?

[Brisky]

Can you relate to this?

[Cheza]

I'm really hoping that Gen 8 fixes a lot of these issues.


Do you like the dance moves of the gang members in Gen 7 :P?

They try. :P


Mostly I feel sorry for them.

Can you relate to this?

Nope.
I don't believe in god, so it's never been much of a concern.

[White Wolf Guardian]

But have your ever seen a pokemon with those gang dance moves?

Spoiler for Hidden:

[Cheza]

I have!


I used to like watching those "X walks like Team Skull"-compilation things.

[White Wolf Guardian]

Team Skull, the unstoppable gang with it's unstoppable Pokemon center (For a fee).

Did you catch yourself a wild lepras in Sun and Moon? (The pain and torture)

[Cheza]

Several!
Tho I think most of them came from Poké Pelago so I didn't exactly have to catch them.
I LOVE LAPRAS AND COULDN'T JUST SHOO THEM AWAY!!!


I spent forever hunting for Feebas, however.
Or well, three days. >->
I trusted Google when it told me to go fish for it in the Totem Den in Brooklet Hill.
Three days. Three. Days.
All because Google sent me to some other place and not to Bulbapedia as it should have.
THE INTERNET LIED TO ME!!

[White Wolf Guardian]

Oh my god, I still remember hunting for Feebas, it was so HORRIBLE. NEVER AGAIN. Now... try to catch a shiny Feebas.

How many shiny pokemon have you catched/hatched over the course of time?

[Cheza]

I already have one! Or well, -had-
It's a shiny Milotic now.




I've caught ~60-70 across all games.
Most in Sun/Moon, but I did also catch a random encounter Miltank in SoulSilver and a random Wailmer in Sapphire.
I also have all the Eeveelutions as shinies in Alpha Sapphire + a Zorua and Magikarp.
