serebii confirmed magearna in the isle of armor
oh shi
my first critical catch
there is a new flying type move
that is basically double kick
and a new dragon move which is like fury swipes
ooh, amorite ore gambling
how fun
ah christ, i just hear a loud "pikachu!" scared me lol
its nice to see the stupidly low pop-in distance didn't get fixed
the what
pokemon only appear when you get insanely close to them
as well as trees and npcs
i think they fixed trees abit
berry trees
i can see trees from wayy far away
not gonna lie these diglett are hidden very well
oh that thing
i know that there is one near a bridge xbrox
im pretty sure thats the starting diglett
im not wrong though
one good thing I have to say is there are no arbitrary invisible walls preventing you from exploring the island
is it 150 in the entire isle of armor or entire region
isle of armor
seems that they would be densely packed then
nope
its pretty big
they also are alolan diglett
so it looks like plants
it tells you how many there are left to find in the area
if that wasnt there i would be so lost lol
i don't have water bike so I can't complete the quest
ah shite
i found
an apricorn
finished warm up tunnel diglets
yeah, tunnels is easiest
im missing 2 in the forest area
oh it tells you how many in the area
thats cool
learned from zygarde/totem sticker
oh my god, so they are devils
i found a diglett in a patch of flowers
i was thinking, theres no way they would do that
check everywhere
"theres no way there is a digglet in this trashca- oh my fucking god"
also you can do anything in any order on the island ive heard
so like you arent bound do doing the story before exploring
nope
im exploring and i havent entered the dojo yet
right
thats what i said lol
(i took your nope as disagreeing)
ehh, its early
imagine what a pokemon game would be like if any studio other than game freak got to do it
honestly
moving away from sprites was a mistake imo
i loved the sprite games so much more
wait
why is that lapras shell purple
isnt it normally grey
artistic license and lighting
its to indicate female
like the lone pink butterfree in the mating field
i guess all of the other butterfree in that episode were gay
ugh im missing 1 diglett on challenge road
but that image looks so good with the water leg
but the water in shield is just blue
found it
yeah dolfin, it looks great because its not made by game freak
looks good because its not made by sweatshop kids
but it is all on the same engine so we shouldnt have expected better graphics
things having textures and filters applied makes it already look significantly better
