Pokemon General [SFW, No NSFW]

Eevee’s evolutions should get more love. Eevee’s cute, but it’s diverse evolutions is why it stands out.

@Meanlucario
 
Yeah, take a Pokemon that’s known for it’s evolutions, make it a mascot in a game, and make it unable to evolve in said game.
 
Meanwhile proceed to dump all of the benefits and gimmicks to the unevolved pokemon whose personal gimmick revolved around evolving.

@Littlecabbit  
It’s more than a little dumb.

@Littlecabbit
 
 
@Meanlucario
 
Especially since you can still obtain normal evolvable Eevee in the game anyway, making it even more pointless. AND your rival can still evolve his if you’re playing Let’s Go Pikachu (and he can evolve his Pikachu if you’re playing Let’s Go Eevee).

Although at least you can just use a Leaf Stone and Ice Stone to evolve Eevee into Leafeon and Glaceon in Sword & Shield now. …Which frankly is how it should’ve been from the start.

@Jarkes  
I feel like that the PC or GF going “See, pre-evolutions are better if we say so.”

@Jarkes  
Agree. They introduced the ice-stone in gen 7, and that’s the gen when it should have been usable on Eevee.

@Meanlucario
 

@Meanlucario
 
I don’t mind Eevee being the secondary mascot.
 
 
@Meanlucario
 
Yeah. Also the Wild Area can allow you to have an Ice-type before the first Gym if you’re lucky with the weather. No more having to wait until the endgame (well, except to get certain ones anyway).

@Jarkes  
And if you’re daring, you can get to the daycare center before the first badge.

@Meanlucario
 
Yeah, since they don’t block you off from Route 5 before you go to Turffield Stadium, just from entering Hulberry.

@Jarkes
 
Oh I don’t mind Eevee being a secondary Mascot either, it’s just in gamefreaks heads, that means heaping everything onto Eevee while ignoring it’s evolutions, which is a shame.
 
I just hope we don’t start getting Eevee Libre’s and the like, we already had that Eevee with the odd hair-style

@Littlecabbit
 
Ukelele Pichu. That is all.

@Shepherd  
I have one of those on my US game.

@Jarkes  
@Littlecabbit  
Its worse if those versions of pokemon are not capable of evolution, making them one of the worthless pokemon you can even get.

That’s why they’re given inflated stats and OP moves.

I’m tired of Max Raid Battles against Milcery, & Gigantamax Toxtricity, Hatterenne, and Orbeetle…  
And there’s still another fucking month of this.

@yelling_into_the_void
 
Milcery’s not supposed to be available anymore? But yeah, I get what you mean (swap Hattrene and Orbeetle with Grimmsnarl and Kingler though).
 
Doesn’t help that I can almost never win battles against Gigantamax Toxtricity and during the rare times I do I fail to catch it.
 
Most of the time Gigantamax Raids are very rare, right?

@Shepherd  
I absolutely love Ribombee, my most favorite Bug Pokemon

I’ve heard speculation the new mythical might be part of a set of three, depicting ‘evil twins’ of the starters’ final evos.

Zarude looks like it should have come from Grookey.

Also it better be fast to take advantage of Leaf Guard in the sun. What a trash ability.

WOOO! Just beat a raid Mewtwo!

@OldMangyMutt  
Maybe some that won’t make it crumble to a single struggle bug.
 
A new move called Nitpick, which is lighting rod for bug moves, but it damages the one using them.
