I wonder how this place would look in Scarlet...
The technology in this world is incredible.
If only this game had similar mechanics to Pokémon Legends.
That’s not what you say, and you know it.
You’re telling me I can’t catch the Pokémon in a battle like this?
I mean, it happened earlier last year.
If only there was someone out there who could give me the Scarlet book...
I didn’t. (Nemona’s dad could use a few suggestions for his business.)
So Miraidon IS a special edition Cyclizar!
It seems that these labs are in a set order. I thought I could visit the labs in any order I wanted. Considering this game is open and everything.
Something’s off about Turo...
Too late!
The power of teamwork cliche.
I thought this place would’ve been more bigger...
Obviously.
Of COURSE he keeps his Miraidon in a Master Ball. (Then again, it DOES suit Miraidon very well.)
In that case, I’m glad I buddied up with this one.
If AI were to be put into the story of a Pokémon game, I would’ve expected there to be an AI Pokémon. (Or would that just be Porygon?)
Never would I hear that the country’s leading researcher died in a Pokémon game.
Yeah! I thought I’d have to use Thief on a bunch of Pokémon to get one of these!
That’s what you think.
Crush the dreams of an innocent man to save the world? Sounds fine by me.
I was expecting something more spacious.
Another missed opportunity in this game is not designing the pedestal to look like a Switch Lite. (So the books could act as the cartridges.)
Of COURSE these types of things can never go easy...
So, did he capture himself? (I thought he would’ve given me Miraidon so that I could fight against the Pokémon from the other version.)
Don’t make an Undertale joke. Don’t make an Undertale joke. Don’t make an Undertale joke. (I love how they fancied the text up when it comes to the AI.)
That has to be the most epic Poké Ball throw I’ve ever seen.
He would’ve learned the truth sooner or later.
You mean, it’s not over yet?!
And THAT’S why you should always carry a Pokémon outside of their Poké Ball.
HURRY, GET AWAY!
So NOW I can send him in?
It’s about time.
This must’ve been a very tearjerking scene for some people.
Guess we’re going that way then.
You should be glad that the image above this text isn’t a video. Because that would mean I’d have to face legal action. However, I will say that I knew this song would play during the credits. And as promised, I muted the volume while it played out.
Yeah, as if a group of people actually tested these games and thought they were okay for release.
Hopefully, those patches were the last few things the model quality assurance team had to work on.
For those of you who think Satoshi Tajiri didn’t want stuff like this to happen, just remember that he’s been serving as executive producer for the past 2 decades. And unlike a lot of pompous people on Twitter, he’s a reserved man who keeps his personal thoughts to himself. (And so should I.)
But how do I put him into a box?
At least I have a Pokémon friend I can travel with permanently.
You’re a little too late for that, Clavell.
So it’s like that award from Kalos? Cool!
I guess that’s how I’ll be able to get that Champion Ribbon on other Pokémon.
At least I’ll be happy knowing I can school the teachers.
AND I get to fight the Gym Leaders again? Hopefully, it won’t be just a one-time fight.
I don’t think it’s all that great. I might have to face... ...HER...
Technically, I didn’t go to the actual destination point.
I was hoping I could prepare Miraidon for battles.
It was a good thing I caught this guy on Pi Day!
I always thought shiny Cyclizar would be more... ...blue.
You mean, THAT was the Hall of Fame? No, that doesn’t count! You can’t just have the Pokémon go uncredited for their work. What is up with this country? Everything about the League here is all topsy-turvy!
I made a wise decision to do a wonder trade.
That should do it for now. I want to keep playing. But I don’t have a Pokémon with PokéRus. And without any PokéRus, I can’t make them as strong as they’re supposed to be. So until I can get this game to work with Pokémon HOME, it’s back to Sinnoh to train more Pokémon!

Reading your post about gift mons Drayton would gives his friends and my brain immediately zone in on Lacey getting a goomy, thinking about in hisuian Zorua!Drayton AU maybe instead of Drayton gifting the mons it’s iris as a sort of thank you for being friends with her brother and not spilling the beans to anyone that he’s a Pokemon and just— Drayton’s reaction upon seeing Lacey with a goomy is just a forced smile as he thinks of Lian, would Drayton explain to Lacey or continue to lie to her about who Lian is hmm…
Need to live up to my name of angst by making something cute into sadness >:3~Drayton angst anon💛
Ohhhh👀👀👀👀
Okay but Iris giving them those mons as a thank you gift is so sweet tho love that for her what an icon
But anyways please chdnbd I fucking forgot Lian had a Goomy too and I just looked at his wiki page yesterday too😭 I didn't even made the connection until now seeing this ask chdnnd hahaha
Also imagine tho if like,, Lacey went along w Clay visiting Sinnoh for business stuff, Clay's like trying to teach her stuff abt his business so maybe one day she can inherit it. Imagine her bringing that Goomy to Sinnoh, and it evolves into a H. Sliggoo. Her wondering why it doesn't look like a normal Sliggoo, but hey, it's still cute, still her babey, she still loves it
But when they got back home to Unova, when she's showing off to her friends how her Goomy finally evolved, Drayton's there like, having flashbacks hahah him seeing Lacey w H. Sliggoo, seeing her w a replica hat like Clay's, like Lian's, cause Clay be like that fr, and Drayton's telling himself no, that isn't Lian. Lian is dead now in this time, the one in front of him is Lacey, but holy shit are they almost so so similar it kinda catches him off guard at times. But hey, least now he catches himself almost calling her Lian again, it'd be even more awkward to really explain it and really just say it while everyone's around

Legends Z-A was announced less than an hour ago and I’m still buzzing. My biggest question right now is the STARTERS.
Given that Legends Arceus had starters plucked from other regions, I feel the new game will do the same. The Kalos Starters will not be the starters of Legends Z-A if they’re following format. And I feel it’s safe to assume they won’t double up on regions cutting out Johto, Unova, and Alola.
One factor I’m leaning on heavily is that Mega Pokémon are implied to be returning. Which begs the question: Will the starters of Legends Z-A have regional variant forms, or mega forms?
If we’re getting starters that get megas, I can only assume we’ll be getting a Kanto and Hoenn starter, and one other random starter that will be getting a mega. Personally I feel it’s too soon for them to put a Paldean starter into a new game. Galar is a maybe, but all of their starters have G-Max forms (not that that matters, all the Kanto Starters have Megas and G-Max forms..). Leaving Sinnoh.
But this is all speculation and I could be entirely wrong. Starters may just be Pokémon that fit thematically with Kalos, so starters with origins that work could also fit right in.
This is all fun early announcement speculation. And I look forward to seeing where these games go! I’d love to hear other peoples takes and thoughts too! :)

Can I request a Nemona X Galarian gn reader who’s also been to every region?
All around the world!
Pairing: Nemona x GN!Reader, Kieran x GN!Reader, Penny x GN! Reader (Can be interpreted as platonic/romantic, hinting at romantic at the end of Kieran’s!)
Notes: Hello anon, I really like this request idea! I hope you don’t mind, but I added Kieran and Penny due to them also being good characters to write for this specific prompt! I hope you enjoy reading it, and thank you so much for requesting!
Nemona
Nemona would find you so cool.
When she first met you, her thought process would definitely be ‘woah, they’ve been all around the world!’ to ‘imagine all the types of Pokémon they’ve caught and seen!’ which leads to a “Let’s battle, right now!”
(It’s non-negotiable.)
When she does battle you, she enjoys doing so because of all the different Pokémon you use!
Whenever you guys have rematches, she definitely encourages you to use different Pokémon, she loves a challenge >:)
Hope you’ve caught a lot, because if you know her she’ll want a lot of battles! It doesn’t matter if that Pokémon is in Paldea’s dex; she’ll be prepared for it!
She also likes to see all your different Pokémon outside of battle!
Before she met you, she’d only seen the Paldean variant of Wooper. She had no idea that that they were blue everywhere else?? That’s so cool!
As well as that, your Galarian Meowth is so cool? She’s in awe of how different it looks compared to normal ones!
She loves your Alolan Raichu. She could spend hours observing it, it’s so cute??? She’s so fascinated at how it practically ‘surfs’ on its tail.
You’ve also got a lot of questions coming your way about your Pokémon.
As well as a lot of questions about the different regions you’ve gone to!
She’s been to Unova, Kitakami and obviously Paldea, so she’s curious about the different cultures and people around them!
You’re going to spend hours talking about the different sights, people, and culture, and she’ll be listening closely to every minute, asking about things every now and then.
She’s most interested in Galar, (unsurprisingly) due to the way battles are run there.
You’re happy to indulge her, telling her about your time battling there, and of how you made your way to the semifinals of the Galarian Champion cup, of how you were beaten by a boy similar to your age named Hop.
And since it’s all broadcasted for the world to see, you invite her to watch it with you, to which she happily obliges.
Kieran
“You’ve been all over the world?! Wowzers!”
He’s so amazed. Kieran hasn’t really gone anywhere apart from Kitakami, Unova and briefly to Paldea.
He finds it so interesting, he wants to know tons about all your different adventures around the world!
He himself actually knows quite a bit about Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh due to them having similar cultures to Kitakami, but enjoys your recounts nevertheless.
He’s more into places more different to his, like Unova, Kalos, Alola, Galar and Paldea however. Not to say he doesn’t like listening to your journeys in the first four! He enjoys cultural difference and variety. As said before, he’d still be enthralled to hear about them!
He enjoys hearing about the Pokémon most, especially tales about legendary creatures, and mythicals that have practically no sightings, only having been written down in history books.
Tell him about your trips to Kalos, the food you had there and the grand Lumiose Tower that would stand tall and bright. Maybe the two of you should go there together?
Or entertain him with the story of the mythical Meloetta, how its beautiful music and dance inspired many works of art, music and song.
Kieran would want to know about your hometown the most, so tell him about Galar, and what’s happened there.
He’d definitely be interested in its history and the darkest day, as well as the battling culture there.
Wait, there are videos of you battling in the Champion Cup?! He wants to see that!
“Wowzers, you’re so amazin’ , s/o!” Is all he can respond with after he sees the way you lead your Pokémon in battle.
He’s flabbergasted, simply staring at your rotom phone once he sees that the battle’s over and done with.
Expect him to ask for battle tips from you, since you placed in the semifinals!
Have you told him about Galarian culture and traditions yet?
If not, just maybe you should be bold and tell him about the tradition of handling applins to people that you like, and hope that he isn’t too flustered after finding out to reciprocate your feelings!
Penny
Penny would know instantly that you’re a Galarian. You all stick out like sore thumbs, your accents easy to recognise and your fashion as bold as a highlighter.
Maybe it was the fact she was Galarian as well, but it was really easy to tell.
You two would spend a lot of time talking about the different brands you’d shopped at, giving recommendations to each other for the next time you’d head there.
The conversations goes from Galarian brands, to Galar itself, to all sorts of regions.
“Wait, you’ve been to other regions?!”
Penny had only been to two. Her homeland, great old Galar, and Paldea!
So you having been to every one? She’s intrigued.
She might have no intention of going to other regions at the moment, but her interest was piqued when she heard that you had.
She’s most interested about the sort of adven-tours (see what I did there?) you had and the sort of Pokémon you met.
“In Sinnoh, there were these guys that went under the name Team Galactic. They had horrid hair and outfits Penny, I think they’d need Atticus to go over there and give them new clothes for them to ever be taken seriously.”
When she hears that you’ve been to Kanto, she gets so excited and proceeds to info dump about the Sailor Sun manga because that’s where the author lives, and how it has an anime!
(Watch it with her pretty please c: )
She also likes seeing the sights there too. Show her photos of the ferris wheel you went to in Unova, or the Subway trains that you’d battle the train conductors on.
And although she’s not too big a fan of going outside herself, she enjoys looking at the Alolan beaches and how gorgeous they look at sunset. Show her Lumiose city!
She’ll be satisfied looking at anything with you!
Give her recommendations of places to go to. She probably wouldn’t consider going to them anytime soon, but she knows she’s in reliable hands when it comes to picking a place to go on holiday to.
Even after she hangs out with you and talks about all the different regions, there’s still one more thing she’s got on her mind.
She got to watch your Galar Champion Cup battles, of course!
She uses them as background noise while she’s drawing, or chilling with her veevees!
