Well, after a few months without playing, my girlfriend picks up her copy and decides to do a Wonder Trade. What does she get first try ? A SHINY LUGIA.

And here I'm just amassing an army of traded Lv.3 Fletchlings.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but I can almost guaranteee that it's hacked. Cool find nonetheless. 
I remember back in the Diamond and Pearl days, I entered a tournament at my local gamestop only to be informed that the Charizard I had gotten over the GTS was hacked. Really dampened my enthusiasm, but I ended up getting second place and a free copy of Battle Revolution, so that was pretty sweet.

Ah shame, still, it's very exciting for non-hardcore players !

I read everywhere that this animal (may have) inspired Pikachu... But I think this is crap. Pikachu is named Pikachu only because it's a mouse who does electricity / pika pika (to sparkle in japanese) and because mouses do "chu" for the japanese. Someone said that... And everybody is following. Or is there a real source?

Also, yes, I'm alive! Just have nothing to say.

And Pikachu is an electric mouse, not a rabbit.

Prepare to have your mind blown. Take the first 5 letters of Squirrel and combine them with the last 3 letters of Turtle and you get...

Squirrel + Turtle = Alakazam!

That's some Illuminati shit right there!

Guys, put Slow and Poke together and you get a lazy pokermanz name.

True Story.

My favorite is Mareep.

Mareep may be a combination of Mary (from the nursery rhyme "Mary Had a Little Lamb") and sheep. Mareep is also an anagram of ampere, a unit of electric current.

It's always weird to know that in the Pokemon world both Pokemon and normal animals live together.

I think normal animals are used for food while Pokémon are probably used for things that don't kill them (Like Miltank might be used for making Milk + Mareep for Cotton)

The new Pokemon starters and Legendaries were just revealed.

Here's the whole video
If you don't want to watch the video or can't, here are the starters. In order: Rowlet, Litten, and Popplio
We know what the Legendaries look like but we don't know their names.


Which legendary do you prefer and which starter do you think you'll pick?
