DLC for Violet/Scarlet? Home update?

yes

[Robbo-92]

Still slightly surprised (and very disappointed) that at least gen 1 games didn’t get announced for the Switch today, I guess they might be waiting for the 3DS eshop to close so they don’t take away the last minute sales on that platform but comparatively that’ll be pennies compared to how many copies they could sell on the Switch.

Going to do the boring task of ordering my boxes into dex order this afternoon (on Scarlet and Violet) but thought I’d wonder trade the 2 & 1/2 boxes of random stuff I’ve got over my time with the game, 7 Pokémon in and already received a level 100, shiny Hisuian Zoroark, definitely legit yeah? Yeah?

Did it come holding a Master Ball?

That's how you know it's legit.

I’ve no idea what ball it came in actually, I’ll have a look, to be honest they normally come holding master balls from the ones I’ve got in the past.

Edit, standard Poké Ball and no held item, from the classic trainer name of pokenvy .com

Does anyone know a channel on YouTube who’s uploaded the last episodes of Ash’s run in the anime with English subtitles (obviously ), just seen something about the last episode and I don’t think I want to wait to watch them (as it’ll probably be at least a year before we get them over here, no idea when the last lot of Journeys is coming out!) as it’s sounds like such a nice send off for Ash.

Will anyone be jumping onto Pokémon Stadium when it releases for the N64 online app for the Switch tomorrow? I know I will probably take a break from A Link to the Past to play some of the mini games and have a couple of battles

I’ll probably start with a battle and see how poorly it looks compared to how I remember it

Didn't know this existed

New to me! Neat story events like that shouldn't be locked behind event Pokemon though....

[Skarjo]

What was that site where you used to be able to input specific friend codes or mystery gift or IP settings or something to get any Pokemon you wanted in a 'trade'?

Is that still going?

Finally! Interestingly it comes with update 3.0, I wonder if we get any stability updates as well.

[Robbo-92]

Obviously good news

Although I'll probably just transfer the Violet exclusives across to Scarlet (via Home), then all into Home for eternal safekeeping to then add the respective version exclusives/new ones for the DLC, really hope you'll be able to catch a lot of what they've been offering in 7 star raids in this too, some of them would be good to add to teams for my second runs of these (well I'm hoping to play through them again anyway!)

Just looked at the dates for the DLC, first one is still saying Autumn, second one now says Winter? Sure it said Spring beforehand didn't it? Either way, kind of hoping the first one will be good to go by October time, might just have finished Zelda by then.

Finally! Interestingly it comes with update 3.0, I wonder if we get any stability updates as well.

It'd be nice, but I doubt it based on the last couple of updates.

at last

Oh my. A new Pokémon plushie is available.

The official Pokémon Center shop has launched its latest plush toy - and it's for Wiglett, the long, pink-tipped worm-like creature that stands erect at 10-and-a-quarter inches.

[Robbo-92]

Reckon that'll sell well to a small portion of the fanbase if it can use harden?

[Qikz]

That's a wiglett
