I've always enjoyed naming all Pokémon from memory.
There used to be a flash-based quiz that had sprites popping up, made by someone else, which stopped working 4 years ago.
And since I find quiz-sites like sporcle very boring looking, I teamed up with a friend and started the pkmnquiz.com project.

In between co-working sessions in stream today, I made the best replica that I could of Looker's office in Animal Crossing because I'm just so excited for all the Emma stuff in Legends Z-A 🥹💚

Planned to be added eventually, but might need some life changes happen first, so no estimate right now 😅

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 5d

No idea 😂 I only watched a few people play bits of it back then.

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 5d

Ok yeah, they fixed the 7-star raids,
joined a random Roaring Moon in the Raid search from Violet version~

(Reginoice finally got to do something meaningful in its life)

Oh, since nobody got the game to know that this is a real reference, I should show you xD

Not even Pikachu eating bad spaghetti that gives him divorce flashbacks could save this game.

Meanwhile the official German Pokémon Website refused to specify what stores the distribution is happening at and has now deleted the article about the distribution entirely 😅

Nooo they're getting rid of the Koraidon & Miraidon from Pokémon Center Osaka and Pokémon Center Mega Tokyo, replacing those statues with a Charizard

Talk about a downgrade.

Well it is both Dark and Ghost type, so if you were to miss one, it would make sense for it to be this one.

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 8d

The complete absence of Bulbasaur and Squirtle continues to be sus

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 26d

Yeah..
Mewtwo and Charizard.
..awkward for a decade (like many things XY/Kalos started and left hanging).

With Pikachu('s evolution) being added to the Twin Mega Genwun Favoritism, there's NO WAY they ain't completing the pantheon with the suspiciously marketing-absent Venusaur and Blastoise lol

Jake Steinberg @jakesteinberg.substack.com · 26d

Mega Blastoise X and Mega Venusaur Y incoming.

Book it.

lol Germany finally has an official post about the event, but they refuse to tell us what stores it's supposed to be happening at

Erhalte ein Schillerndes Koraidon oder Schillerndes Miraidon bei teilnehmenden Händlern

Besuche teilnehmende Händler in deiner Nähe, um eines dieser Schillernden Legendären Pokémon in Pokémon Karmesin oder Pokémon Purpur zu erhalten.

Hope they pick the powehouses back up... but maybe not during October cause Z-A should keep us busy lol

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 13d

Sorry; unfortunately this is a known issue. We haven't figured out a way to fix it, but it seems exclusive to Apple devices and the Safari browser. I'd recommend trying a different browser or device.

Went on my sunday morning walk... but the fog was so fascinating that I ended up walking aimlessly along the winegrape hills for over 2 hours 😅

People just getting made up stuff without a crazy amount of artificial scarcity thrown in? To the US, that's basically one step away from communism!! Can't have that!😂

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 16d

Seeing you excited by how different from conventional Pkmn AND from L:Arceus this feels, after talking about a Simisear of all things being a menace has me like: 🍿

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 16d

...and now finally this "Former Idol" is ready to do some ranked battles! 😂

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 16d

...eventually taking it to the past for a nice photo...

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 16d

...which then led into a whole silly improvized quest of trying to get a buncha ribbons on the Arceus before moving it out...
(RIP contests from Gen-4, the BDSP contests are actual hell)

Adept Charon @adeptcharon.bsky.social · 16d

Ok, I didn't just boot up BDSP and go past the "thou shalt not use dpad controls"-ledge for the lolz.

The whole "haha ruleset for ranked that isn't actually in VGC, with mythicals allowed even tho there are just like 2 good ones" inspired me to climb to chibi-heaven to catch god in a Moon Ball,

Raikou lightning + New moon

This might be the coolest Sleep session I've seen in 118 weeks of playing #PokémonSleep

Got both, 3 star sleep style of Darkrai and Raikou, completing their entries, despite a terrible 5.5h sleep!

And there's even a plugged in Raichu for the lolz
