Pokémon GO is a mobile game from Nintendo, The Pokémon Company, and developed by Niantic Labs that let players go out in the real world and catch Pokémon. The game uses various geo-cached points in which a Pokémon may appear at. Depending on where you are/live different Pokémon will appear. Ex: Water Pokémon will appear near rivers, lakes, and oceans. During their journey, players will come across Poké Stops, in which they can collect free items and gyms in which they can battle at (*Note* battling is very basic and is not to be expect to be like the in main Pokémon games). In a future update players will be given the ability to trade with others. For a good idea of how the game works, Check out Nintendo's E3 discussion with the devs of the game (see spoiler below). *Note game requires Internet (mobile data/Wi-Fi) and location services* More Screens: http://imgur.com/a/WKiC2 Pokémon GO Plus is a device created by Nintendo that lets players enjoy the game while freeing their eyes from their phone. The device connects to your phone via low energy Bluetooth and will flash and vibrate when a Pokémon or Poké Stop is near by, so you can catch Pokémon or collect items without the need to use your phone. *Please Note* Pokémon GO Plus currently only uses Poké Balls and when connected, will enable the game to run in the background. With the game running in the background you can do other things on your phone or turn the screen off, while still being notified of nearby pokémon, PokéStops, and track your distance.

  3. Pokémon TV, an app/website that let you watch episodes (even movies at times) of the PKMN anime, PKMN specials, and PKMN competitive videos all for FREE will be shutting down on March 28th. While app is now longer available to download on Switch, mobile, and smart TVs, if you already have the app downloaded you can continue to use it until it shuts down (Odd that they make the announcement of the service ending in March and immediately remove the app). *See Tweet (X post) below* TPC has provided a list to all the places where you can watch PKMN: It's sad to see this go. I really wonder why it's being shutdown...? Is it because usage has dropped or with streaming being as big as it is now, they feel they can make more $ licensing PKMN to these different streaming services, or both? I really liked having one place for all the PKMN anime, even though they regularly cycled in and out content. ...And best part it was FREE! I used this quite a bit to re-watch season 1 of the anime and PKMN Origins on my Switch (portably) and TV (via a Chomecast with Google TV). Now the PKMN anime is scattered throughout all these different streaming services, with some being free others being paid.
  4. Well of course the release date(s) of the Pokémon S/V DLC will be announced? For some reason I am not sure the indigo disk date will be revealed. Tho, they release by winter 2023. That's just weird because winter barely last a week seasonal, calendar wide. Still hope we get both. As for anything else, I could guess but these are harder to speculate than Nintendo Directs will show up with. So I leave that to anyone who post, what else besides Pokémon S/V DLC news?. Oh it is 35 minutes long too.
  5. Release Date: Late July 20203 Platform: iOS / Android Price: FREE (in-app purchases) Site: https://www.pokemonsleep.net/en/ Release Date: July 14, 20203 Price: $54.99 Compatibility: Pokémon Sleep / Pokémon GO Site: https://www.pokemongoplusplus.com/en/ ---------------------------------------------------- Is anyone going to download this when it comes out? I don't really need a sleep tracker, though I am interested to see how they incorporate catching/collecting PKMN into a sleep tracker app.
  6. Official Pokemon Sword/Shield Shiny Thread This thread is dedicated to pokemon trainers shiny successes in the Gen 8 games. Keep it simple and post your shiny red starred mons here! To start off with, here is a Shiny Toxel!
  7. I haven't watched the anime since it was on Kids WB, but as someone who has watched the anime from the start, back when the PKMN craze first hit the U.S., this is really sad to hear. T_T Though, this would make since, because come to find out Ash became a PKMN World Champion in the most recent series. I'll never forget that first episode when at first Pikachu was a little shit and hated Ash. Farewell Ash and Pikachu!!! May you always be best buddies! ^_^
  8. I've been waiting for this and I would say it mostly delivers... The Canadian Godzilla, eh? killed me lmao.
  9. We're finally going to get our first look at the Super Mario Bros. animated movie!... Odd that our first look will be at New York Comic Con. I would have totally expect our first look to have been in a Nintendo Direct. Hopefully we'll get our first full trailer in a Nintendo Direct.
  10. Thought to make a separate thread to discuss this somewhat in-depth trailer. How's it looking so far?
  11. Decided to make Legends Arceus dedicated fully to this game and everything in it. Feel free to post any experiences, tip or general talk about this game. For the time being, for those who played far into this game, please use spoilers. I won't post anything spoiler-y a week after this thread is created. Enjoy!
  12. --------------------------------------------------------- TPC is having a special Pokémon Presents on Pokémon Day this year... Are we finally going to hear about PKMN Sleep?
  13. For me, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl is a momentous release. I played Gen I and II back when I was a kid, but fell off the Poké-train and didn't pick the series up again until Gen V. In 2014 I had the chance to see what I missed in Gen III with the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire remakes, and I've finally caught up on Gen IV as well. Now I've played every mainline Pokémon generation, as well as plenty of spin-offs (I'm a long way off from catching 'em all, though). Was Shining Pearl worth the long wait I took with the franchise? Well, for better or for worse, it's a lot of the same Pokémon experience that trainers have seen for decades now. As is tradition, Shining Pearl opens with customizing your character and picking a starter Pokémon to begin your quest to be the very best, like no one ever was. Your first meeting with the Pokémon professor plays out a little bit differently than usual, but ultimately the formula is pretty well preserved—collect badges, battle a nefarious group (in this case, Team Galactic), challenge the Elite 4 and become a champion. It's not until the later generations that the villainous team or your rival get much more than a basic personality, so don't expect much depth from the writing in Shining Pearl. Still, there's a certain charm to the simplicity of these cookie cutter characters. Catching, training, and battling Pokémon is as engaging as it ever has been in Shining Pearl—there's definitely something addictive about leveling up to the next Pokémon evolution, or claiming another badge on your road to become a champion. And of course all your training and experience can be put toward multiplayer battles if you wish, or you can just trade Pokémon with players all over the world to fill out your Pokédex. The core gameplay is virtually unchanged, and it's still pretty dang fun. These remakes of Diamond and Pearl include some extremely convenient quality of life upgrades, not least of which is changing the HM system. Like the most current Pokémon games, you no longer have to force Hidden Moves upon your Pokémon in order to explore. Once you have the HM (and the appropriate gym badge level) you'll actually summon a random Pokémon to use the ability for you, which is kind of hilarious to picture. Shining Pearl also allows you to access your PC box from anywhere which is super convenient and makes it much easier to have a larger "active" party of Pokémon instead of just sticking to the same six all the time. EXP Share is also on by default in this game which is nice, though somewhat obnoxiously there's no way to turn it off, so you'll likely find yourself completely overleveled for most of the adventure (especially if you're catching/training a lot of pocket monsters). There's also an autosave feature—plus you can save anywhere—so there's a big safety net to ensure you don't lose any progress. Overall these new features significantly help shake off some of the old quirks of the early Pokémon games and align the experience with something a modern player would expect. That said, Shining Pearl does feel a bit old fashioned at times, seemingly because this is a pretty faithful remake. Sometimes the familiar Pokémon formula loses its charm when it's just: visit new town, defeat gym leader, fight Team Galactic a bit, move on, repeat. It doesn't help that there's a pretty weak variety of Pokémon here, meaning you'll see the same ones over and over, both in the wild and in the hands of trainers/gym leaders, so the monotony really gets laid on thick. Something else about the game could've used some fine-tuning to make the experience feel a bit more fresh, aside from the quality of life improvements mentioned above. Of course, if you do get hooked on the Pokémon formula, there's a huge amount of content to enjoy in Shining Pearl. The road to becoming a champion will likely only last 20 hours or so, but as usual there's a ton of post-game content to enjoy as well as all of the multiplayer options. Of note is the Grand Underground system which essentially gives you a massive environment to explore and catch Pokémon—not too dissimilar from the usual gameplay loop, but being able to find themed areas and see Pokémon in the environment instead of running into them in random battles helps spice things up a bit and provides a great opportunity to catch some rare Pokémon. The Underground kind of feels like Pokémon distilled down to its most essential components, which really just shows how fun those components are. Shining Pearl trades the original game's sprite graphics for squat, chibi 3D models that feel appropriate for the Pokémon franchise's cute, friendly style. It doesn't have the same variety of the most recent generation, Sword and Shield, but the chibi artwork tries to find a happy medium between the original's look and modern graphics, and in that sense it does succeed. The soundtrack stands the test of time quite well and has that satisfying sense of adventure mixed with bright, friendly charm that is found in so much of the series. Pokémon Shining Pearl is a solid if rather unambitious remake. It's not here to completely overhaul Gen IV into something modern Gen VIII will recognize, but it still adds some valuable quality of life improvements that help make it more accessible. Despite that, many aspects of Shining Pearl feel stuck in the past, which is fine if you're here to enjoy a trip down memory lane (with some visual upgrades) but some Pokémon trainers might not want to revisit some of the more finicky aspects of the older generations. Still, the franchise has endured as long as it has because catching and training Pokémon seems to always be fun no matter what kind of packaging that experience is placed in, and for many Pokéfans that will be enough to journey through Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl either once again or, like me, for the first time.

  14. Available on Pokémon TV (Switch/mobile) Episode 3: Episode 2: Episode 1:
  15. Yeah, they nickname all the Pokemon that appear in this remake. All I'm gonna say is, the 2 fish looking shocked and what their nicknames are, really got to me.
  16. The free Pokémon TV app is now available on Switch... While it's cool to see more streaming apps on Switch, where's Netflix? ...And wasn't Disney+ supposed to come when they announced the app? BTW, I feel they should have put the app's name on PKMN TV's Switch icon. It's basically just the mobile app's icon.
  17. New Pokemon Snap Gallery Thread A place for players to share their photos and galleries for the new Pokemon Snap Game.
  18. https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/11/it_looks_like_kadabra_can_finally_return_to_the_pokemon_trading_card_game Could this mean Porygon might be returning to the anime soon?
  19. A presentation on PKMN SW/SH expansion pt 2 will be shown off tomorrow morning. The release will most likely be revealed along with expanded look at the features we know will be Crown Tundra.
  20. I think this was leaked early this morning. EDIT: This article on Polygon have better coverage of this and a Twitter thread of this in English. https://www.polygon.com/2020/10/22/21528532/pokemon-sword-shield-leak-beta-prototype-early-build-cut-monsters-nintendo-switch-game-freak-4chan You can hear beta theme 2 the gym battle themes in the articles too. Apparently this beta was made in 2018, so that explains the Let's GO! and S/M elements. As Ultra S/M came out the year prior and Let's GO! came out the same year. Interesting.

Meet and grow your café staff of charming Pokémon eager to help Recruit Pokémon to help out at the café (in their adorable uniforms) by building friendship and expand your café and menu offerings by completing puzzles. Each Pokémon staff member has a Café Skill that will come in handy during puzzles! Golden Acorns can help you complete puzzles and recruit more Pokémon!

All the action in Pokémon Café Mix unfolds in a playful art style that brings out the cuteness of your Pokémon pals and patrons. It’s time to become a café owner, solve puzzles, and bring joy to Pokémon patrons! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Is anyone going to download this? I really like the art style, but I'm not sold on the gameplay with that stirring mechanic. It seems like there's not much strategie and that it's mostly just dumb luck. Also, it sucks you can only play in handheld mode. I'll give it a try when it comes out, because I absolutely loved PKMN Shuffle on the 3DS and was hoping it would get ported or a sequel would come to Switch. Here's hoping Café Mix is just as good!
  22. Nice to see that Nintendo/TPC's ninja's caught the leaker, though I can't get over the fact that the outlet is called FNintendo. ...FNINTENDO!!!
  23. Well, this is now a thing... IDK what it is with Nintendo and ASMR lately. First there was that video of a guy making a level in SMM2 at the beach and then there was that video of a Labo kit being put together. Now, TPC has jumped in and created their own ASMR videos. These are oddly adorable! I kind of want to see... Or should I say hear? ...More of these now. BTW, is it just me, or dose anyone else have a strange craving for cookies all of a sudden?
