    For me, My favourite moment was first time fighting the elite four in Platinum. I never finished Pearl when I was younger, so Platinum was the first game I got that far in. I was up against Cynthia, and it came down to a struggle match between my Weavile and her Garchomp. Somehow, I won. It was a Sunday morning. I ran downstairs with so much excitement, my parents couldn't believe that my 9 year old self was up that early. I am just happy that I grew up with Pokémon!

    My favourite moment in Pokémon has to be watching Ash Vs Paul.I was soooo much worried as a kid and like just went into the television.Watching almost all of Ash's Pokémons falling to that freaking drapion was so scary.Then came Infernape and fell to Electivire's thunder I was just shouting in my house "Nooooooooo please noo" then he stood up activated blazed finished electivire like a god and that last moment when electivire falls has to be the best!! Infernape is my all time favorite Pokémon since then.
    I am happy to grow up with Pokémon and still into the franchise.

    My favourite moment in Pokémon has to be when I tried shiny hunting for the first time. My first successful soft reset for a shiny Pokémon, back in Gen III, was a huge moment for me. I had heard about shiny Pokémon and asked my little brother if I could use his Sapphire to reset for Rayquaza. He didn’t play it anymore, so he said sure. It took months of on and off, but one day, while playing Pokémon Platinum and Soft resetting in the background, it happened! Black Rayquaza infront of me!!

    I think my favorite pokemon moment was when I first found the battle with Steven in Meteor Falls in pokemon Emerald. I didn't really have access to the internet back then, so I never knew it was a thing, I was just exploring. I remember being kind of bored that I was too overleveled to feel challenged by any of the rematches with the gym leaders, but then Steven totally wiped the floor with my team! It really got me excited to train again, and that having one last challenge for my team to overcome (outside of the battle frontier) felt incredible

    I've had a lot of good memories with Pokemon over the years, but I guess one of my favorite memories was probably when Sun and Moon first came out. I just moved up from middle school to high school and I had to say goodbye to a lot of my friends since most of them were either going to different schools or moving away. So I was kinda lonely for the first few months of my freshman year. A few weeks before the games released, I walked into one of my classes and noticed that my groupmates were talking about sun and moon, so I joined in since I was also really excited for the new games. For the entire class period, instead of actually getting any work done, the three of us were just talking about what we were looking forward to in the new games and what versions we were getting + what starters we were choosing.
    I think what was really cool was that I found out all of us were gonna choose all three of the starters, I was gonna choose Litten, and my groupmates were each gonna choose Popplio and Rowlet respectively. And then when the games finally came out, we each brought our 3dses to school and just battled and traded during our breaks and after school. Since then we became really close friends to this day.

The opponent moved first but luckily missed so my Pignite used arm thrust and hit for times to secure the victory and get a level up. After the battle, he evolved into an Emboar and from there, we went to sweep the rest of the gyms (except the last one, that one was difficult, especially that darn Greninja). The only main line game I have ever played was Pokémon Shield, so brick bronze was my only alternative back in 2017.

    My fav Pokémon experience is a tie between the summer of Pokémon GO and starting Pokémon Sword for the first time. The summer of GO was just an amazing phenomenon of linking up with fellow trainers all around DC to hunt and find everything we could lol. And since I hadn’t played an actual Pokémon game since Gen 2, mostly kept up with Pokémon lore and art afterwards, I was excited to finally get a console game after all this time. I got chills in the opening and seeing the Sword emblem shine in the sky! It also helped that I’d bought the game and a Switch right before the pandemic so I didn’t have to scramble to get either and def enjoyed playing during quarantines.
    And now I’m looking forward to the Gen 4 remakes bc I’ve not experienced them and can start my own journey with them!

I panicked, my jaw hit the floor... but I love a challenge, and I was delighted to have one, and nothing has taught me like that first encounter with Cynthia back then.

I had only played HeartGold at that point because I was fresh and new to Pokemon, and after 3 years, I finally got to play both Sun and Moon along with Ultra Sun.

    My favourite moment in the franchise was a few years ago, when I had a lot of free time since my work schedule shifted to fewers, but longer days. I decided I would go back and stream casual playthroughs of Every Game.
    I had missed on many generations throughout the years, either money or interest.
    Going back and re-living what I had played, or discovering what I had missed, all while really learning how to play the game (My old save files are trainwrecks!) was such a great experience that I decided not to stop even when I didn't have time to stream anymore.
    I've been playing Sword and Shield since they released, building new teams, doing challenge runs like the Prof Oak challenge or nuzlocking since.
    Now I'm ready to go to the next level and I'm ready to start doing randomizers.
    That project was one of the best decisions I made.

    I've been playing Pokemon from the very, very start and have never even seen a normal shiny encounter, let alone catch one. My favorite shiny is Porygon-Z.
    I've made a lot of online friends during my time with Sword and Shield, the first games where I decided I wanted to complete the Pokedex.
    Little did I know, but a friend I made in one of my online groups was trying to get one for me for ages, and on the day I became the champion of the Galar region, I got it!
    The fact that somebody in the community would go to the effort of getting a legit shiny like that is so cool. Pokemon fans can get awfully toxic, but some of them are true gems of the gaming community as a whole.

    I applaud your positivity, Mystic. If there's one thing I've learned from being a Pokemon fan it's that you need to keep an open mind about the games. Get too worked up over a wish list that you concocted is a good way to cause problems for yourself, the developers, and the community. The fact of the matter is that BDSP do have some nice new improvements to them that enhances and fixes the heavily flawed nature of the original DP, even if the core game is largely the same. While BDSP are a mixed bag at best I do feel that they will offer enough to make them good and help them stand on their own as part of the franchise.

      I don’t mean to be rude, but your argument is really flawed. Pokémon has so much brand recognition that there’s no way they aren’t going to keep pumping out products, because they keep making money. There’s not really anything to be grateful for. It’s not a gift.
      Also, some franchises just get the short end of the stick and make really good products that don’t get the recognition they deserve. Take the Metroid franchise for example. The devs of that series have had it so rough, but they still put as much possible into Dread... and thankfully, it looks like it’s finally paying off for them.
      Also, I’m just gonna day it... they already have the models, they can make more expressive and lively animations for the Pokémon. That was supposed to be a big reason for limited Pokémon going forward. And let’s not act like they really try hard with the story. Outside of BW, B2W2, SM, and maaaybe DP, they don’t really try to make a complex and interesting narrative. I hope that changes with Legends Arceus, though.

    My favorite Pokémon moment, was when I wanted the new Platinum game back in 2009. My mom didn't really have the money to get it for me but she made sacrifices and pre-ordered it for me. I knew she had no money to get me the huge Pokémon Platinum national Pokedex guide book, so I went on UA-cam and watched gameplay of Marriland playing the Japanese release game. I watched his gameplay and made my own version of the Platinum guide book. Once I finished making the book, I showed my mom and I told her I made this because I didn't want her to make more sacrifices for me. She took the book and hugged me. When it was time for her to pick up my game that she pre-ordered, she came home and surprised with Pokemon Platinum and the guide book. She said to me don't ever worry about me, you're happiness is my number 1 priority. TO THIS DAY I still have the Pokémon Platinum game and the guide book. It's my most cherished Pokémon game ever.

    My Favorite Pokémon moment besides finally beating Heartgold (My first Pokémon game), happened recently when I played Sword. I decided to use a Noivern on my team when I found a Noibat in Galar Mine. I never used one and always really liked Noiverns design. But Noibat takes forever to level up and it’s pretty weak in the mean time. It got KO’ed in almost every battle, even if it was 10 levels higher then the opposing Pokémon. I had to use EXP candies just to keep it at the same level as the rest of my team and there were so many times when I could’ve of switched for a stronger Flying or Dragon type Pokémon.
    But I didn’t because I believed in Wayne (What I named Him.) and I knew if I toughed it out, it would be worth it because I knew Noibat would become something awesome. I never gave up on him. Then in the Spikemuth Gym challenge, I finally got Noibat to evolve into Noivern just before the battle with Piers. It was so worth it because Noivern helped beat Piers, did a lot in the battle against Raihan surprisingly, helped defeat Oleana, Chairman Rose, took out half of Leon’s team, and so much more. Now Noivern is my favorite Pokémon and I will never forget the moment when he evolved in Spikemuth. I was so proud.

    My favorite is just now Shiny Hunting has evolved throughout the past decade. Starting off, there weren’t really any surefire ways to increase shiny chances, other than the Shiny Charm. Then the Masuda Method was discovered. Then the Poke Radar, then overworld shinies, egg hatching, the Poke Radar rework, soft resetting for static encounters, the list goes on. Even though it seems like they take a step backwards in terms of shiny hunting odds, they still find new and interesting (and sometimes mathematically complex) ways of changing up the formula, both figuratively and literally.
