Pokemon fans have been left perplexed after being commanded by the official Pokemon Twitch channel to 'Discover Oddish' for over 19 hours, with a soundless stream showing nothing but the company's logo for the best part of a day.

The Pokemon Company's Twitch channel is a pretty active one, so to see it streaming something isn't out of the ordinary. With that being said, 'Discover Oddish' certainly managed to turn heads, and you can see why. As the hours passed, fans on Twitter began to question what was going on. Why was there a mostly-blank stream on the channel? Why are we discovering Oddish? What did Oddish do? And perhaps most importantly, when will it end?

The bottom part of a Elite Trainer Box is covered in some sort of fake leather. Is it just plastic?

Catch an Incineroar with the Mightiest Mark!
Incineroar will be appearing at black Tera Raid crystals from Friday, September 6, 2024, at 00:00 UTC to Sunday, September 8, 2024, at 23:59 UTC, then again from Friday, September 13, 2024, at 00:00 UTC to Sunday, September 15, 2024, at 23:59 UTC.

The Incineroar appearing during this event has Dark as its Tera Type. Be prepared—this Pokémon is a formidable foe, and it’s got the Mightiest Mark to prove it! Work together with your friends to topple this powerful Tera Pokémon!

During the latter half of this event—from Friday, September 13, 2024, at 00:00 UTC to Sunday, September 15, 2024, at 23:59 UTC—Blissey will be appearing more frequently in 5-star Tera Raid Battles. These Blissey will have various Tera Types, so prepare wisely before challenging them! Defeating Blissey will yield some delightful rewards, such as various Tera Shards and bonus Exp. Candies.
\

This special Incineroar can be caught only once per save data. If you caught this Incineroar previously during a Tera Raid Battle event, you cannot catch it again. You can still participate in Tera Raid Battles against this Incineroar to obtain other rewards if you’ve already caught it. This Incineroar may be featured in future events or become obtainable through other methods.

First of all I'm sorry I'm posting here so much. Hope I'm at least providing some filler for this place.

I'd like to edit some stuff into my save because I'm lazy and don't wanna grind. I also want to hack in an old sea map. Are there any save editors with Linux support?

Yes, this is seriously how long it took. Each soft reset takes one minute and three seconds if playing optimally which I most certainly wasn't frequently, although starting at 16384 resets (twice the odds) I started dual hunting on a copy of Black 2 as well, so you can effectively cut every SR's time in half after that. I don't remember when I started, but I always would watch TV shows whenever I would hunt, so here's all the shows I went through:

Gurren Lagann

SpyxFamily (season 3 hype!)

The Sopranos

Parasyte: The Maxim

Kaguya-Sama: Love is War

Last Week Tonight seasons 1-3

Assassination Classroom

King of the Hill seasons 1-7

And finally, the little bugger showed up during the second-to-last episode of Horimiya!

Prior to this, my longest hunt was somewhere in the 16000s.

Like most people (I assume) I hate the event mons. Wtf do you mean I have to live in likeonee country to get some mythical, just treat it like a story legendary.

There is no reason a pokemon shouldn't be obtainable by gameplay

Personally I fond the 2d ones nicer, idk why bit pokemon look better in pixel art. That and modern pokemon has so many loading zones.

Tried to play sword abotehr day and damn so many loading zones,

That said I will admit things like signature moves look a lot better in 3d, its just loading times for crossing a bridge is uhhhhh

What I'm tryna say is I prefer the looks of pixel art Pokémon.

Just got a machop and a machamp would be a good lategame thing for my team, problem is I use mgba and machamp is a trade evolution. What solutions are there?

As for my team I have other major issues I'm working to fix. I have like 2 steel types and 3 water types.

Its lombre, wingull, gardevoir, the first evolution of mudkip, magneton and Aron.

I'm considering a slugma or torkoal, and am contemplating building the machop. What would your recommendations be? I just beat gym 5 (barely, I need a team that isn't held together by my ace)

Hi there, I was bored so decided to watch the new Pokémon horizons series featuring new protagonist Liko. I was surprised how good this was, the concept of adventuring without gyms, not too many Pokémon but getting good with few, the characters, the storyline, no annoying team rocket, an even cooler Pikachu (sorry to hurt OG Pikachu fans). Definitely will recommend a watch, I am currently at 40th episode, and it just keeps getting better, the characters are amazing, and the bad guys are really cool too, slightly more competitive than team rocket (expecting them to put even greater fight).

Beginning in early September, 2024, we will be holding an event—Suicune Research!

You can exchange samples of Suicune Mane that you collect during the event for Suicune Incense, which you can use to research Suicune’s various sleep styles!

Water-type helper Pokémon will be particularly effective during this event, so we recommend raising your Water-type helper Pokémon to get ready! Water-type helper Pokémon: Squirtle, Wartortle, Blastoise, Psyduck, Golduck, Slowpoke, Slowbro, Vaporeon, Totodile, Croconaw, Feraligatr, Wooper, Quagsire, Slowking, Quaxly, and Quaxwell.

We’re also preparing some functions and rewards that will allow everyone—even Pokémon Sleep beginners—to research Suicune’s sleep styles and befriend it more easily.

More details and the event’s start date are coming in a later update. We hope you’re looking forward to this event!

@pokemon Is there any way to transfer between two games of the same generation?

I want to transfer some of my Pokémon from SoulSilver to Platinum once I’m finished with the game.

Title.

Pokémon's too easy to be fun anymore, but Nuzlockes don't work for me for a number of reasons. So I figured I'd play one of those romhacks that redesigns trainer teams -- That way I could play the game normally but also would have to use my brain.

Any base game will do, although I'm not too fond of Gen4 because of how slow Gen4 pokémon games tend to be (gen5 is the prettiest, ofc)
