I personally cant wait for SwaSh i plan on uploading it all xD

i'm still hoping my brother canceled the pre-order for my copy

ah dang....quite a few people are saying that for this one....its one of the least popular pokemon games....but its 80% cuz of the dex cut and 20% cuz of the "graphics are bad" arguement. which i understand but tbh i get why its like that.

arcanineespeon

That was very generous of you to give that to a random person for free mr.ghost 🙂

arcanineespeon

The link I gave you is a pretty comprehensive list, and most importantly it has pictures of the Pokémon and Gym Leaders so you can see what you're picking.

arcanineespeon

Let me know if you need clarification on any of the terms I used, Toast.

arcanineespeon

No switch online subscription I guess? That kinda sucks

arcanineespeon

Oh but dude, if you have a phone/tablet that can use Wi-Fi you can still use Pokémon Home! I swear it's really useful

arcanineespeon

Ah, I see. It's sadly not the best Pokémon game to play with no internet.
Was my link useful to you?

arcanineespeon

I never said it was bad. I said that it's improved by a wifi connection more than some games.

arcanineespeon

Actually, as long as you aren't hanging out in the Wild Area too much, or using Pokemon that evolve by trade such as Pumpkaboo or Machoke, no internet for SWSH should serve you just fine.

arcanineespeon

The more I think about it I can't think of very many Pokémon games that don't have a cool feature that you need either internet or other nearby players for. The Festival Plaza in Alola, Secret Bases in Hoenn, random people and Pokémon helping you with O-powers and Pokémon Amie as well as the friend safari in Kalos, and going back 15 years (and 3 weeks in the future) there's the Sinnoh Underground. I never figured out the C-Gear and Dream World in Unova, but I eventually realized it would have added a lot.

arcanineespeon

So in Galar, the real advantage of internet is a wider variety of Max Raid Battles. But you can honestly play through the entire game without doing a single one, be that by yourself or with another person.

If you are looking for pokemon in general, post to

Or are you asking how you start Sword or Shield?

arcanineespeon

since that was a few days ago you might want to @ them

arcanineespeon

Gonna put this here since it's less likely to be buried, and BDSP doesn't have its own page.

I screwed up bad.

Does anybody have an unhatched Manaphy egg they'd be willing to trade me? I'm willing to negotiate on the trade in or price.
