I guess it did....? I don't know. I just really liked it because of how sudden it was and how he just kinda stared into the camera as he said it. The lines that really got me were "If I don't listen to my imaginary friend, why the f** should I listen to yours?" and "He's not a good enough scapegoat for me."

And geez,  if you are offended when someone greets you "Merry Christmas/Happy New Year" because you don't celebrate those things then something is wrong with you.

I didn't know people got offended when they're told "Happy new year!" but I completely agree with the Christmas thing. There's no reason to get worked up about things like that.

^ don't really want to get involved in the happy holidays vs merry xmas debacle, but "...I think it's geared more towards the gretee disliking the occasion than the other party not celebrating it." bothered me a bit and if it means anything: Similarly, I'm also a former Catholic, but I started saying happy holidays after realizing that I didn't like that saying merry xmas to someone assumes/implies that the other party is a Christian/celebrates xmas for mainly religious reasons, and after being a closeted "nonbeliever" in a Catholic school for several years, I'd just prefer to abstain from perpetuating that assumption. Unless it's the day of, I, as someone more on the atheistic side of things (I apologize if anyone finds this alarming or uncomfortable.), feel weird being that specific too. It's not intended to be a metaphorical middle finger to those who do happily partake in the non-consumerism part of the season, it's just easier and acknowledges that there's other holidays going on around the same time. Plus, it could be argued an empty, insincere "merry xmas" is more disrespectful than a genuine "happy holidays"

tl;dr - not offended in any way nor do I have a pronounced dislike for xmas, I'm, personally, just glad there's an alternative, catch-all term available for those who want one

Ehh.. I'm still not entirely sold, but with that being said, I revisited ORAS recently (I lost interest a few weeks after it came out when I lost my first ever shiny because I forgot to save before quitting), and have been enjoying it more than I thought I would. Your paragraph, and playing ORAS again, does make me want to play the next main installment in the franchise, but I'm still hung up on a few small things. I don't particularly like either legendary or any of the starters' full evolutionary lines, I was hoping to catch a bunch of magearna's and have a whole team of 'em and I'm still somewhat disappointed that you can't do that, and, for whatever reason, I don't like the walk/run cycle used for the player's character. and as cool as Kukui may be, he's no Prof Sycamore 
I'm probably going to get it soon though since, for a while, I planned on buying it at launch, and when launch day came and went, it felt kinda weird not having it. They also brought back character customization with Sun/Moon, and being that that was one of my favorite parts of XY, I really want to play another Pokemon game with that feature. I also can't get Origin to work for some reason, so Sims 4 isn't an option at the moment and it'd be nice to get at least one video game before the holiday season's officially come and gone :')

 

Also: Why did so many people choose Moon? Literally everyone I know who bought the game chose Moon, and considering I was going to go with Sun, I can't help but feel like I might've missed something somehow. . . .. .

 

*insert obligatory "what starter did everyone choose?" question here*

I'm gonna go with rowlet and never evolve him so he stays smol 5ever

Also, now that you're on the topic of the new Pokémon gen VII, how's the difficulty of the game compared to earlier generations? I haven't really played any other Pokémon games aside from LeafGreen and Diamond/Pearl, and I can't remember how difficult/easy those games were, but I find the new Pokémon Moon/Sun way too easy. Granted it's a children's game, but it would've be a bit more exciting if they'd upped the difficulty a tad, or just given the various trainers you meet a couple more Pokémon, haha.

 

Anyway, aside from that the new Pokémon game is a marvel to look at, and I especially like the new donkey/horse Pokémon. :P (I haven't completed the game yet, and I have yet to try out all the new/old? features, so I can't really comment on those.)

The last Pokemon games I’ve played were the gen V games, so it’s been a while, haha.

 

I’ve been told that the newer games tend to be a lot easier since they buffed the exp. share so that experience is distributed among every member of your party (which makes it stupidly easy to become over-leveled, lol). I turned off my exp. share the moment I received it, and admittedly, there were a few parts of the game that caused me a fair amount of stress (one of the trials took me a couple of attempts to beat, and I was actually a bit under-leveled for the elite 4). Granted, I didn’t really grind and mainly relied on trainer battles to gain levels, haha. One of my friends went to even further lengths to up the difficulty by setting the battle style to “Set” instead of “Shift” (“Set” doesn’t give you the option of seeing the opponents next Pokemon after you knock one out). I’d venture to guess that you left the exp. share turned on and had your battle style set on “Shift” if you thought it was that easy? Seeing as you haven’t beaten the game yet, maybe implement these options and see what happens!

 

But to answer your question, the difficulty curve is comparable to some of the older games when the exp. share is turned off. Maybe a little easier, or at least in my opinion, lol.

 

OH MAN, the new features are amazing. For starters, no HMs is probably one of the best aspects of these games. The Pokedex is actually useful for once by telling you Pokemon locations and even giving you typings of Pokemon you haven’t caught yet (which was especially useful since I was trying my darndest not to spoil the games for myself). Also the fact that whenever you catch a Pokemon, the game gives you the option of seeing its summary and letting you put it in your party instead of sending it straight to the PC box! The list just goes on and on, haha.

People love to argue that they call Christmas/New Year as "Holidays" because they don't want to offend anyone but I think it's geared more towards the gretee disliking the occasion than the other party not celebrating it. I mean I always call the holidays by their name, may it be a Muslim one or American one or Asian one or whatsoever e.g. Ramadan/Thanks Giving/Lunar New Year eventho I don't celebrate them . I do it because I respect, welcome and tolerate the occasion. And I don't see any reason why not unless you are someone who cannot tolerate these things. And geez,  if you are offended when someone greets you "Merry Christmas/Happy New Year" because you don't celebrate those things then something is wrong with you. You are probably just a Liberal-Fanatic who despises everything about Christianity.

 

If you're gonna counter argue and ask why I am against Christmas being called "Holiday" if I'm a tolerable person, it's simply because. as I said, it's disrespectful to those people who have established the occasion and to those who celebrate it. It's name swapping no matter what you call it. You are basically not acknowledging it (It's basically like calling someone "girl/boy/kid" instead of calling them by their name) And anyways, Christmas is just the name of the Holiday, it doesn't mean that if you greet someone by it, you automatically shove Christian beliefs to them. Actually, Christmas is not even really a Christian Celebration to some. (There are Christians Denominations that despises Christmas)

 

Plus to me, Christmas Celebration has a different meaning to me. Being a Christian Deist, I don't celebrate it like the theological Christians do where they celebrate it because it's the birth of their God Jesus whatsoever. I celebrate it as an occasion where people can rest and be happy and celebrate and reunite and give gifts to each other. And I'll still call it Christmas.

Um, I greet people with “Happy Holidays," lol. But does that mean I'm against Christmas? Not in the least bit (fun fact: it’s actually my favorite holiday). What about Kwanzaa? Well, I don’t exactly celebrate it, but that doesn’t necessarily mean I have adverse feelings towards it either. And same, I’m not Christian, but I celebrate Christmas for the exact reasons you do.

Quite the opposite, actually.

 

After reading your take on the subject, perhaps our differing perspectives is due to our interpretation of the phrase “Happy Holidays.”

 

To me, “Happy Holidays” is inclusive of all of these different celebrations since you can’t assume what each person celebrates. I don’t see how it can be considered name-swapping unless, for example, you’re solely referring to Christmas when you say “Happy Holidays” (which seems to be what you’re claiming). But again, that’s not what I feel the phrase is meant for. The phrase is meant to be inclusive of every holiday during this time of the year, not just Christmas.

 

In other words, “Happy Holidays” is actually acknowledging every holiday, as opposed to only saying “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Hanukkah” to someone who might only celebrate Kwanzaa.

 

But, in the end, no matter what you consider the phrase to mean, the person wishing you a “Happy Holidays” is ultimately wishing you happiness. It’s not really fair to interpret the benevolent gesture as some malicious attempt to cause you offense, lol.

 

not to drag @machine into the conversation or anything, but I think this just about sums it up pretty well:

Because Pokemon fans are edgy nerds who stay up way past their bedtime

^das me at least

 

And I chose Rowlet.  If I ever get a second copy of the game, I'd choose Popplio.

 

I'm curious though @machine, why do you like Magearna so much?  There are a lot of Pokemon I've taken a liking to over the years, but I've never had the urge to create a full party of any single Pokemon to run through a game with.

OMM 1: I... I beat it. I beat Pokemon Sun, my rowlet stayed a rowlet the entire time, I was finally able to add magearna to my team, and I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. Calling it "easy" is a bit of an understatement though. While I can't say I was really bothered by just how low the difficulty was, it still would've been nice to not unintentionally steamroll my way through everything. (I don't like grinding in turn based rpgs, so I appreciated them making it harder to end up under-leveled, but it would've great if the game had been a bit more challenging) And Ilima's best girl boy, no contest

Only 6 of the 15 pages in my passport are filled though, so I'm getting the feeling that I missed quite a few things, yeah?

To actually answer your question though, my favorite pokemon, aron, isn't available in Sun/Moon, and magearna looks kinda similar to aron. My first Pokemon game was Black and White 2, so I've had at least one aron in all of my games, and magearna was going to be my 'substitute aron' in Sun/Moon, so to speak. I like magearna's steel/fairy type combination a lot more than aron's steel/rock combo though, and playing with a magearna-only team for any length of time sounded like it'd be an interesting challenge. I wasn't hoping to go through the whole game with only them, but I did want to see if I could make it through an island or two with only magearna's. I was also planning on catching all the ones I came across in game, so finding out you can only have one kinda ruined my plans tumblr_m42quperIZ1r58lid.jpg

I should probably turn the exp. share off then, haha. Thanks for the tips, Kenzi :) Didn't know about the set/shift options!

 

What I like most about the game is probably that it's 3D(/2.5D), instead of the sort of top-down 2D we've had so far.

I'm surprised you found it so easy, especially considering you seemed to have just finished 6th gen.  Most people considered XY and ORAS to be the easiest game in the series, and that SM did a lot to ramp up the difficulty.  No one thought it was Dark Souls level of hard, naturally, but a lot was done to make it significantly more difficult to find yourself sweeping through the whole thing.  I'm assuming you kept Exp. Share on and used Pokemon Refresh, but I'm curious what your team was, and what level they were by the time you versed the Elite Four.

 

Also, that's a weird way of spelling "Lana" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

And yes, you fill out the rest of the pages by completing the Pokedex, reaching certain milestones in the Battle Tree, and upgrading your Pokefinder.  You can find the details here.  Aside from that, there's the Ultra Beast sidequest, the Eevee sidequest, collecting all 100 Zygarde pieces, obtaining all 100 TMs, locating the rest of the Z-Crystals, catching the Tapus, and backtracking to previously inaccessible places using some of the later-game Poke Rides like Machamp and Sharpedo.  Oh, and sometimes going back to places you've already been to results in special NPCs, dialogue, and cutscenes, some of which you may have accidentally discovered during the main story (the restaurant "dates", the Hau'oli City NPC, the trail captain battles, etc).

Ohh, interesting, Aggron is actually one of my favorite Pokemon (his regular form specifically, not his Mega).

MERRY SWITCHMAS!!

tumblr_inline_ojr20tOlLe1qdford_500.png

The Switch event was really hype, and for the most part I'm liking what I'm seeing so far.  The only thing that really worries me is the paid online subscription, which may get in the way of me really being able to enjoy Splatoon 2.  ARMS looks surprisingly good, Super Mario Odyssey looks decent as well, as does Xenoblade Chronicles 2.  I wish Fire Emblem Warriors was an actual main series FE game, but perhaps there will be more news during that Fire Emblem Direct on Wednesday, especially about the mobile game.  Mario Kart 8 Deluxe looks alright, but I've already invested so much money in the Wii U version and its DLC that I won't be double dipping.  And as for indie games, Snipperclips is where it's at.  I somehow managed to get the Special Edition of Breath of the Wild pre-ordered (don't fail me now Best Buy), but by the time I was able to convince my parents to get me the Switch on release date, they've already completely sold out online, and my winter break isn't over yet so I can't pre-order in store . . .

u must be confused because everyone knows Kahili is best girl after Ilima

 

I technically haven't completed the 6th gen yet, I'm a little before the 8th gym in ORAS actually. While it's also not exactly challenging, I can't compare difficulty levels between the games very easily since I played the two fairly differently. I beat Sun/Moon in 10/11 days and I put effort into having my team be more diverse by utilizing types I usually don't have on my team, but in ORAS my team had/has a lot of overlapping types, and despite getting it on release day, I'm still not done with it. 

And my team was garchomp, honchkrow, rowlet, solgaleo, sandslash, and drifblim. In addition to that being much more well-rounded than I'm used to, excluding solgaleo, they were all between lvl 60 - 67. My friend told me that her team was in the high 50s when she beat the Elite 4, so I was aiming for low 60s just to be safe. I did keep the exp share on since I tend to end up underleveled in RPGs due to my dislike of grinding, and I used refresh fairly frequently since I wanted to get rare candies from the cafes. I didn't think using those would overshoot me by so much though tumblr_m42quperIZ1r58lid.jpg What exactly did they do to make it more difficult than gen 6?

 

Thanks for the link btw I'll have to look into the NPC stuff and eevee sidequest 
I have a question about the Tapu battles though: if you accidentally KO one, can you try to catch it again later?

 

That's part, if not most, of the reason why aron's my favorite out of the three haha Aron's also the evolution you encounter first in the games, and for whatever reason, a lot of my favorite pokemon are just the evolutions you have the opportunity to catch first, so there's also that. 

That is an interesting coincidence though. Is there a specific reason you prefer regular aggron over mega aggron?

my parents ended up sending him back because taking care of him was too much work

it might've been for the better since he never got the attention he deserved during the daytime since no one was home

the poor guy just kept meowing and pawing at the door until someone opened it for him :c

 

That's too bad, but pretty understandable since cats can be pretty clingy ): He's a nice looking cat, hopefully someone else will adopt him soon.

u must be confused because everyone knows Kahili is best girl after Ilima

 

I technically haven't completed the 6th gen yet, I'm a little before the 8th gym in ORAS actually. While it's also not exactly challenging, I can't compare difficulty levels between the games very easily since I played the two fairly differently. I beat Sun/Moon in 10/11 days and I put effort into having my team be more diverse by utilizing types I usually don't have on my team, but in ORAS my team had/has a lot of overlapping types, and despite getting it on release day, I'm still not done with it. 

And my team was garchomp, honchkrow, rowlet, solgaleo, sandslash, and drifblim. In addition to that being much more well-rounded than I'm used to, excluding solgaleo, they were all between lvl 60 - 67. My friend told me that her team was in the high 50s when she beat the Elite 4, so I was aiming for low 60s just to be safe. I did keep the exp share on since I tend to end up underleveled in RPGs due to my dislike of grinding, and I used refresh fairly frequently since I wanted to get rare candies from the cafes. I didn't think using those would overshoot me by so much though tumblr_m42quperIZ1r58lid.jpg What exactly did they do to make it more difficult than gen 6?

 

Thanks for the link btw I'll have to look into the NPC stuff and eevee sidequest 
I have a question about the Tapu battles though: if you accidentally KO one, can you try to catch it again later?

 

That's part, if not most, of the reason why aron's my favorite out of the three haha Aron's also the evolution you encounter first in the games, and for whatever reason, a lot of my favorite pokemon are just the evolutions you have the opportunity to catch first, so there's also that. 

That is an interesting coincidence though. Is there a specific reason you prefer regular aggron over mega aggron? 

at least post best Kahili picture if you're going to post at all smh

and I'm sorry to burst your hipster bubble, but Lillie takes the cake after Lana

 

It's interesting you decided to have a team mainly of old Pokemon instead of a full team of gen 7 'mons.  And my experience was more in-line with your friend's; I'm fairly certain I was also high-ish 50s because I remember being pretty evenly matched in the Champion battle.

(reasons for why the game was more difficult than gen 6 in spoilers, both because there are some story spoilers in there and because I ended up writing a lot...)

Oh, and when I said "Hau'oli City NPC" in my previous post, I actually meant Hau'oli Cemetery NPC, oops.....

And yeah, KO the Tapus all you want, they respawn I may or may not have accidentally KO'd Tapu Koko the very first time with a crit

 

And I just like Aggron's design better than Mega Aggron's, ahah.  That's the main reason, but I guess I'm also a sucker for cool Pokemon that aren't really competitively good.  Aggron has a lot of shortcomings that prevent it from being in a higher tier, which its Mega kinda fixed, but I like the underdog types, so I prefer it in its regular form.

My night duty is starting this semester. Meaning I have to attend classes from 8am to 5pm, then work around the block for 5pm to 12 am. I can be excused 15 mins of being late. This is what true hell feels like ;-;

 

Anyways Valentines is just around the corner. How is everyone planning to celebrate it?
