Before we even start talking about Gen 10 Anime, we have to finish Gen 9 first. I'll get around to watching Horizons sometime soon. Being that Horizons is going to be a complete reboot, it'll be interesting to see how long it takes them to get to Paldea and start things. It took Indigo League 5 Episodes to get to the first…

For most regions/generations, the Fire Type starter is generally the best one to have and it's largely due to the regional Dex options. A prime example is Sinnoh where Infernape was not only stupidly OP but because your only alternative was Rapidash(Platinum fixed that). Grass and Water options that generation were quite…

Pokémon was always designed with mobility or Gameboy/Handheld Consoles in mind. A Laptop or even Desktop PC would have hardware that is far beyond the capabilities of a handheld. Meaning anything made for a handheld could easily be ported to Desktop IF they wanted to. Yet if there was anything that would take advantage of…

I don't really know of professional studios that would be an ideal fit but to me it should be a place that has passion in what they do and some of the more popular online cartoon producers would be an interesting place to start. Carbot Animations is the first one to come to mind whereupon they actually made it into…

I haven't seen Horizons yet either, but I agree with their decision to retire Ash. Having become a regional Champion in Gen 7 and following up with a World Tournament in Gen 8 whereupon he comes World Champion, Ash didn't have anything left to prove or work with from a story standpoint. My major gripe with Journeys or Gen…

Playing Video Games or better yet transplanting them into the role of Link? If we're going for playing the Video Game… answer is Alakazam. The darn thing has an IQ beyond measure while having the Psychic means to press the buttons so fast it would be like it's a TAS run. If we're transplanting into the role of Link, the…

For me specifically, it's Alolan Vulpix. Vulpix has been my favorite Pokémon since Generation 1 and yet it wasn't a true match for me because my favorite typing happens to be Ice. Yes, the Ice Type that is much maligned given its insane Defense liabilities that have rightfully garnered it the title of the worst Typing for…

Unqualified to really comment given that I haven't played Sword/Shield but to argue that the Starters are bad has to take into account the Regional Gyms/Elite 4, their movepools and more importantly, other Pokémon, including those of the same Type, that can do the job just as well or better. Whether that applies to Gen 8…

I haven't played a remake yet. Probably should do so one of these days but my focus has been elsewhere. I've only played Gen 1(Yellow) and Gen 2(Gold) but everything I've seen/heard regarding remakes points to HG/SS being the best one. They took Gen 2 and kept everything that made it great while enhancing it with Gen 3/4…

To keep things simple, we'll base this on North America launches because Japan was always first early on. With respect to Generation 1(Kanto) and Red/Blue, they debuted in September of 98 with Yellow following up in October of 99. Fire Red and Leaf Green didn't debut until September of 2004 or a solid 6 years later. The…
