Never played Legends Arceus, but I'm pretty sure that is a screenshot from Legends Z-A.

TinyBomby Nov 2, 2025 7:35 PM nintendo

It is, but there were also Alpha Pokemon in Arceus

legorhin Nov 3, 2025 4:09 AM nintendo

shiny hunting being so easy is a funny coincidence with this being, as far as I know, the first game with an NPC trainer using a guaranteed shiny

legorhin Nov 3, 2025 4:40 AM nintendo

nevermind, I forgot about the shiny exegcute trainer in sun/moon

Wuvwand Nov 3, 2025 11:33 AM nintendo

There was also a battle tower trainer with a shiny espeon I think in emerald?

Wuvwand Nov 3, 2025 11:33 AM nintendo

Nah nvm seems like they can just spawn in there

the gen3 tower trainers have set teams, and these include shiny Espeon and Meowth

taxes Nov 5, 2025 9:09 AM nintendo

after that gen4/5 battle "towers" always have shiny odds applied to them iirc

taxes Nov 5, 2025 9:09 AM nintendo

as well as in Colosseum, the shadow pokemon uses by trainers can be shiny

taxes Nov 5, 2025 9:14 AM nintendo

but for set ones it's only gen3 tower trainers, steven, the exegccute

taxes Nov 5, 2025 9:15 AM nintendo

oh also that one where you can give someone/trade someone a pokemon even a shiny and they'll use it against you

Wuvwand Nov 5, 2025 9:29 AM nintendo

Huh, okay I wasn’t crazy

Wuvwand Nov 5, 2025 9:30 AM nintendo

I forgot he uses a shiny one in oras

taxes Nov 5, 2025 9:37 AM nintendo

only demo

taxes Nov 5, 2025 9:37 AM nintendo

:p

taxes Nov 5, 2025 9:37 AM nintendo

but the release event for the game was a shiny beldum

taxes Nov 5, 2025 9:37 AM nintendo

that he recognizes as his as well

taxes Nov 5, 2025 9:38 AM nintendo

so demos cannon

Wuvwand Nov 5, 2025 11:50 AM nintendo

Well, that'd create a paradox I'd think because you get it in its pre-evolved form (unless he has a second one, the lucky bastard)

Wuvwand Nov 5, 2025 11:50 AM nintendo

But considering that's a common theme in that gen's games that honestly could just be it

taxes Nov 5, 2025 12:02 PM nintendo

steven already acts like he knows you

Phijkchu_Pikachu Nov 5, 2025 12:50 PM nintendo

https://x.com/Wario64/status/1985961923238666340 if you wanted to see your 3ds, wiiu, and switch gametimes (not accurate to the exact hour) for some reason

Phijkchu_Pikachu Nov 5, 2025 12:50 PM nintendo

the new nintendo store app lets you see all your playtimes

legorhin Nov 5, 2025 12:53 PM nintendo

mine lists Kirby Star Allies at sub-hour yet i beat that game

Phijkchu_Pikachu Nov 5, 2025 12:55 PM nintendo

It is not entirely accurate

Phijkchu_Pikachu Nov 5, 2025 12:55 PM nintendo

just whatever nintendo knows you played of it

Polar_ Nov 5, 2025 12:57 PM nintendo

Do you guys have any Pokemon Romhacks you like, excluding Drayano hacks

legorhin Nov 5, 2025 12:58 PM nintendo

map randomizers

Polar_ Nov 5, 2025 12:59 PM nintendo

That could be funny tbh, I planned to randomize the games a bit as I was gonna play it with a group

legorhin Nov 5, 2025 12:59 PM nintendo

Polar_ Nov 5, 2025 1:00 PM nintendo

I was considering Seaglass Emerald (Emerald Seaglass?)

TinyBomby Nov 5, 2025 1:00 PM nintendo

I really like Elite Redux

TinyBomby Nov 5, 2025 1:00 PM nintendo

You can break the game in half, but it’s fun to do so

legorhin Nov 5, 2025 1:00 PM nintendo

I never figured out how to randomize encounters as well as warps for gen 5

TinyBomby Nov 5, 2025 1:00 PM nintendo

For custom regions, I like Gaia. Not the greatest thing ever, but solid.

Polar_ Nov 5, 2025 1:03 PM nintendo

Elite Redux looks really cool, my one friend loves emerald so im sure hed be ok with it despite it being a difficulty hack

Polar_ Nov 5, 2025 1:03 PM nintendo

Well 2.5 is, idk if its different

taxes Nov 5, 2025 1:03 PM nintendo

3ds times arent accurate

TinyBomby Nov 5, 2025 1:03 PM nintendo

It’s a difficulty hack, but if you enjoy optimization, it’s very easy.

taxes Nov 5, 2025 1:03 PM nintendo

they stopped recording in like 2020

you played it offline then

taxes Nov 5, 2025 1:04 PM nintendo

these are the hours nintendo saw of your activity

taxes Nov 5, 2025 1:04 PM nintendo

they also are rounded to the nearest 15min interval

i.e.

taxes Nov 5, 2025 1:05 PM nintendo

this is missing a ton for me but still has a fair amount

taxes Nov 5, 2025 1:05 PM nintendo

didnt include me playing the dlc

taxes Nov 5, 2025 1:05 PM nintendo

likely because it was offline

Polar_ Nov 5, 2025 1:06 PM nintendo

Thats very annoying. I like when my in game time tracking is as accurate as possible because I just want to know my time wated.

legorhin Nov 5, 2025 1:08 PM nintendo

you can get this rom hack in smallant's discord server https://atsignarchives.wordpress.com/2022/07/04/pokemon-emerald-trainer-battles-are-1v2/

Pokemon Emerald – Trainer Battles are 1v2

For this mod, I made every battle (for trainers that have 2+ Pokemon) a double battle, but you only get to use 1 Pokemon at a time. And for double battles, you still only get 1 Pokemon.

legorhin Nov 5, 2025 1:09 PM nintendo

its impossible to see anything in that server without phone verifying though

Ah I see. I should probably play that, never ended up getting ash greninja

taxes Nov 5, 2025 1:31 PM nintendo

bro thinks sm demo and oras demo are the same

Wuvwand Nov 5, 2025 1:32 PM nintendo

FUCK

taxes Nov 5, 2025 1:32 PM nintendo

oras demo reward is mega steelix iirc

Wuvwand Nov 5, 2025 1:32 PM nintendo

I’m literally the fakest fan gdi

Wuvwand Nov 5, 2025 1:32 PM nintendo

That sounds familiar now that you mention it

Phijkchu_Cynnydaquil Nov 10, 2025 3:20 PM nintendo

Cause there are still a handful of first party games that I wanna get but full price felt like too much

Serebii Update: First look at the box art for Pokémon Pokopia for Nintendo Switch 2. It will be released as a Game Key Card and require 10GB of space to install https://t.co/NWlAdn57aQ

legorhin Nov 11, 2025 10:27 AM nintendo

its also a $70 game, so two reasons to avoid it

Phijkchu_Pikachu Nov 11, 2025 11:20 AM nintendo

LOL

Phijkchu_Pikachu Nov 11, 2025 11:20 AM nintendo

so much for "no nintendo first parties are game key cards"

legorhin Nov 11, 2025 11:22 AM nintendo

and so much for variable pricing

legorhin Nov 11, 2025 11:22 AM nintendo

nothing justifying their full price level has been shown

Phijkchu_Pikachu Nov 11, 2025 11:26 AM nintendo

Variable prices means most games will be 10 dollars more than the old normal, and some games will be a premium price of 30 dollars more

legorhin Nov 12, 2025 9:05 AM nintendo

oh no, brie larson is rosalina
