    Testing how attachments work for profile posts…

    Someone shared a “Favourite Pokemon of Each Type” template generator on the Charms Discord and I created one. I’m debating using this generator to create these for each regional Pokedex as well. Will likely just share them all here (on my profile) unless people see value in a thread for such. ^^

    Quick clarification, are you talking about a thread just yours or for everyone's?

    I personally think that that favourite Pokemon thing is popular enough for a thread for people to share theirs to be made. I mean, I see it around a lot...

    @~Rinko~ I was just going to post my own here, but if I was to make a thread it’d be for everyone.

    If you feel it’s popular enough for a dedicated thread, I’ll do that instead! (Or someone else can if they beat me to it) ^^

    Um, hi! I have a random question...what does the colored circle before your username mean? I've seen red, like yours, and green, and a dark green. I'm just curious.

    Could you help me find some friends? I'm new here. Please... help me out.

    Hey Macie! The easiest way to get to know people is to interact with them. Posting new forum topics or your personal stories or artwork on the Creative Corner; commenting on forum topics/news updates/other members' artwork; and writing on your and other members' profiles is a good start. Just remember to review the global site and Creative Corner rules first and you're good to go!

    Welcome to Pokecharms! ^^

    Heya! Nice to see you again, too. ^^

    I'm still usually poking around here somewhere! Although, I've developed a bad habit where I'll forget to login sometimes when viewing the site, and then eventually login again to find multiple PMs/profile posts waiting for me. X'D

    I ended up training yet another Rockruff for my Ultra Sun team. That makes 3 Rockruff over 4 Alola playthroughs. I have a Rockruff problem.

    For further clarification...

    Moon: Trained Rockruff/Midday Lycanroc
    Sun: No Rockruff
    Ultra Moon: Trained Rockruff/Dusk Lycanroc
    Ultra Sun: Training Rockruff and will get Midnight Lycanroc

    I just can't get enough of this line. Give me Dawn Lycanroc, cowards!
    ~Rinko~
    ~Rinko~
    Yeah, I get you, Rockruff/Lycanroc is a really nice Pokemon that I've used in bothe my Alola game playthroughs.
    Third and fourth/fifth favourite alola Pokemon in my opinion, only beaten out by Popplio and Primarina~

    Hey, there's 3 different reasons to use a Rockruff. Gotta make sure you cover all of them :3

    No problem! It was interesting digging that old post up because I realized even after... 7-8 years (?), I'm still using the same screen name. I've not felt compelled to change it either.

    Beyond my Rowlet, a large portion of my team will be traded over from my other games - and shiny. They're all Pokemon I've held onto for ages and wanted to eventually train but never got around to using.

    Funny thing about that, my entire team was my Unova team from Black because they were OP and I really didn’t feel like having a hard time playing Ultra Sun, especially considering I had recently completed the original Sun and I didn’t want to play(Almost) the same game twice.

    Recently finished the game Digimon World: Next Order, and while I mostly enjoyed playing it I wish the plot hadn’t been so lacklustre. DX

    Sadly, Digimon games are usually not very good - I can think of exactly three Digimon games I actually enjoyed in terms of story, and two of them are basically two halves of the same damn game! XD

    Linkachu
    From what I've gathered, some of the best Digimon games have been the ones that weren't localized too! That just makes me terribly sad and hope that they get remakes at some point. ;-;

    I finished Let's Go, Eevee! yesterday, and for a game so closely based off Yellow it was a great finale. Partner Eevee is best!

    @Forethoughts - Do you know anyone who owns a Switch, or do any stores nearby you have one on display? If you could try one firsthand that'd definitely be ideal. :)

    The thing to keep in mind with Let's Go is that they're very motion-heavy games. Even in handheld mode you have to move the Switch around to aim Pokeballs. Playing both BotW and Mario Odyssey was very comfortable for me handheld, though!

    I would try one on display but Gamestop employees kinda bother me, though my cousin has one. Motion is kinda difficult but I really want to get a switch, thanks for the answer. Poke charms is the only Pokémon site that has been this taken care of or active might be better to say.

    You're welcome! I'm happy that I could help you come to your decision. If you buy a Switch, I hope that you enjoy it! =D

    While I was actually able to start the game yesterday due to buying a UK digital copy, I’m really enjoying Let’s Go, Eevee! so far.

    The game isn’t perfect, and I certainly have some complaints about various features (both those included and a few that are missing), but overall I’m really loving having follow Pokémon back again, seeing wild Pokémon on the overworld, and how adorable my partner Eevee is. That thing is just criminally cute. ;_;

    Just realized, what's the game you prefer? I mean, with all of the LoZ games in the world, what's your favorite? Mine would have to be either OoT or BotW, but I think I want to collect opinions.

    My original favourite for the majority of my life was ALttP, because I adored the concept of shifting back and forth between the light and dark worlds, but BotW completely stole my heart. It's not only my new favourite Zelda series game, it's become one of my favourite games in general. It's just a joy to play each time I boot it up. Currently 125+ hours in and not even close to finishing! X'D

    I finished BotW half a year ago and have restarted a total of two times. I absolutely love fighting Calamity Ganon, but I don't like what happens after ... I'll let you find out xD
    As for ALttP, that is one of the few LoZ games I haven't played, but I plan on getting it soon. Though OoT is older, it was my FIRST LoZ game and decidedly my second favourite. BotW takes first place.

    If you click your username at the top right-ish of the page, you’ll see a list of different options (ie. Personal Details, Signature, etc.). One of the options is also “Change Name”, which for me is showing up second from the bottom on the left. Let me know if it works for you! ^^

    Aww, sorry to hear that. :(

    Oh wow that's awesome! I've seen a shiny sunglasses Blastoise around here, but I can't imagine that would have been an easy find. Glad you got the best out of it! And I can't complain too much - I got a shiny Larvitar last Community Day.

    Now that I've finally watched it beginning to end, it's definitely worth the dedication if you're a fan of the characters/universe. Avoiding the worst of the filler made marathoning it much more bearable, too. I very much enjoyed it and, quite honestly, miss watching it now! At least I still have Boruto. ;_;

    Realizing now, counting the original Naruto series and what I’ve watched of Shippuden thus far, I’ve watched a ton of episodes of this!

    Yeeeah... I know what you mean. The eye opener for me was likely Choji’s sub-plot during the war. Up until now he’d always been a character that I regarded neutrally: he wasn’t a bad character, he just wasn’t a standoutish character either. But my eff, not only did I absolutely adore his story - it gave him so much depth that I was truly moved. I genuinely care about his character now.

    Even if Sasuke and, more presently, Kabuto are driving me nuts, development for characters like Sai and Choji is so great to see - and so very meaningful.
