I suddenly felt old. Not Old, old, but just kinda old.
I was only in the first grade when I first watched Pokémon. I remember pretending to be pokemon and having “adventures” while running around the playground. “you get to be a squirtle” Who are you calling a squirtle? Screw that, I’m an Eevee. >:D
Then the games came out in the U.S. Oh man. OH. MAN. I have so many memories while playing pokemon, and so many good times. Some not so great.
Like running out of pokeballs when i ran into my first shiney, It was a Delibird. D:
Some kid stole my holographic chraizard (the first one), I found him, and beat him up. That fool.
My first LV. 100. It was an jolteon. Good times, good times.

Now I’m in College. Holy cow, It’s been awhile hasn’t it? Oh well, only the cool people still play Pokémon. >;P I decided im not going to be bothered with how bad the English names for anything are anymore. Ether way i will have to get over it. Maybe evan learn to love them.

Except oshawott. That is one agly ass pokemon. Bidoof ugly.

I havent played them unfortunately, but I’ve seen most of the footage XD

And now, for your enjoyment, the Zelda 80s movie trailer (if you didnt grow up in the 80 or early 90s u probably wont get it XD)

A Bulbagarden user has an early copy and confirms a move name- Little By Little is now Chip Away (it’s that Normal-type move that Basculin learns, that ignores boosts to the foe’s Defense and Evasion).

In addition, another user on Bulbagarden confirms that Ankle Sweep is now called Low Sweep.

Timid was alternately translated as Weak-Kneed or Faint Hearted.

At least these names are better than Sap Sipper. Srsly, Herbivore > Sap Sipper.

In reply to Keyblader Jahu. The C Gear Skins are the special thing for the anniversary of the RB release but probably nothing for the 15th year anniversary of pokemon in general.

In reply to Pokemon4Ever.

So did I! I was very surprised 😀 It’ll just make me more excited for the game!
Although they might’ve dispatched early and used a slow postal service meaning it actually arrives on the release date… I hope not though! I just wanted to help PJN if they wanted it 🙂
