So many upcoming and still ongoing events. X3

Oh and I just thought of something that would make me love Pokémon let's go.... if the old stadium mini games were included in it. It won't be in it I know but ohmywbjdkrnek would I go crazy if they were! I miss playing the ratata race, clefairy memory game, lickitung eating game, golbat flying race, ect. Ah I remember playing those mini games for hours. I loved how some of the Pokémon had slight differences. Like some ponyta would be a few shades lighter or darker than others. There was others but I don't remember them all. >_<

I am 100% behind this. I loved the Clefariy and Rattata games and sunk way too much into that. I kinda want the Stadium 2 Scyther game too, that was also super fun.

Minigames in general are really good and I'm kinda sad they're being phased out. I spent hours on Voltorb Flip in HGSS.

I'd love to see the new Game Corner (looks like an arcade now, rather than having slot machines) having playable machines with minigames of some sort available. I loved Voltorb Flip, much preferred it over the slots/card games/etc, and my siblings would give me their copies so I could earn a load of coins for them. xD Especially with the co-op thing, could have a bunch of games that can be played with multiple people and rather than earning "coins", you could earn "tickets" that could be redeemed at a prize shop, like real-life arcades. I've not thought this through far enough as to whether you'd pay for plays with Pokedollars or whatever currency you'd earn from playing.

Anyway, rumour is the Zeraora event could be a Gamestop distro in the US, as they've got info in their system for a couple TCG giveaways, the first being a Shiny Poipole promo and the second being a Zeraora promo. There were dates floating about, but it looks like the article I first saw re. this has been removed, so can't find them out. On the Poipole thought, managed to get myself a code for the UK event, so I'm sorted, phew.

Also, anyone seen the "leaked" Pokemon that was found in Go's network traffic the other day?
Well, if it had just been for that, I wouldn't post about it, but when the first part of the Chikorita Community Day event (Asia, Oceania, other nearby regions) ended, some weird stuff happened... This maybe-Pokemon started appearing in place of other Pokemon, and not just limited to the regions that have had their Chikorita Day already! Battleable and Catchable, too (so there's a number of photos of it in the battle screen, in the AR mode, etc) going around. Apparently it turns into a Ditto, Kecleon or Chikorita if you manage to catch it, and it's still "around" as of this post as two siblings just got one. So, anyone seen it? What do you think? Placeholder? Accidental leak of one of Gen 8's Pokemon? Possibly the one that'll be transferable to Let's Go? Are people okay with me chucking an image up in here, given it's appeared "in the wild", found by normal players of Go, rather than just being datamined/hacked in? I'll link a tweet with an image made by the Marketing Lead of Go for those who want an easy way to check it out... https://twitter.com/kentosuga/status/10 ... 6392355840

I caught about 15-16 of those little guys, yeah. I took plenty of screen shots as well for reference. There's been plenty of rumors floating around, and the only confirmed thing is it wasn't accidentally uploaded to Niantic's servers. My personal guess is it's a teaser for gen special gen 8 pokemon they're putting into Let's GO Pikachu and Eevee, and further on that some people are theorizing it's ditto trying to transform into it but can't (hence why it looks incomplete and most often you end up with a ditto) but I don't know about that bit. Regardless, it's very interesting

The new pokemon looks like a ditto with a bolt for a head and a red wire tail to me. I'm guessing it's electric and maybe steel?

Oh that reminds me. Someone made a funny gif about that the other day on reddit.

I’m getting a Switch in a few weeks! Mom wouldn’t let me get the Let’s go bundle. But if I have to, I’ll get each game seperate out of my birthday money. Since both games come out after my birthday. I’m not even mad a flood ruined my Xbox 360. I care more about getting a Switch and tons of Pokémon games.

Zeraora was originally scheduled for release about mid october depending on where you live. If you need one, you can ask Lady_Lycana and see if she has a extra one since she is a event collector. She should be online later today. Idk when tho

Congrats on getting a switch! (Sorry to hear about the flood though. Hope all is well. >_< )

I might be preordering the bundle next week depending on how much money I have left this month. I guess if they are sold out/i don't have enough money I could suck it up and just get the inevitable animal crossing switch... I'd prefer a Pokémon one though. Especially since I would prefer a hard copy of AC.

[Ember1989]

I have $165 I did the math and that’s roughly half the price of a switch at Best Buy, that’s where I’m buying my switch. It’s a shame I have to wait for a claim to go through before I get the money. And since the only console I have left isn’t working, I’m forced to basically wait. Oh well I know I’ll have a blast when I get it.I’m just really not good at waiting lol. Can’t wait for November! Let’s Go is gonna be so much fun! What version is everyone getting? I’m gonna try to get both.

[Faybell]

The Eevee version assuming I'm able to get the bundled switch. If not then idk if I'll get the game for a while. I'll wait for it to drop to 40ish pre-owned.

If the game is good enough my SO will end up with the pikachu version. Doubtful though, he hasn't even finished ultra moon.
