I randomly got the Eon Ticket at the mall today. Well, okay then.

That's funny, D-vid. I wonder who thought that an already strong uber needed a mega-evolution.
It kind of makes me sad too though. I like training unpopular pokemon, but what's the point if there's
super strong ubers and mega evolutions running around? It feels a bit like playing with a squirt gun while
everyone else runs around with automatic weapons.

For one thing Deoxys probably didn't have 5IVs like you'd normally see in competitive Ubers, second, you can recapture it at the Sky Pillar if you beat the Elite Four again.

Also TPCi already revealed that Deoxys was in the game, so you don't have to add a spoiler tag.

That's what tiers are for.

I made it to Team Magma's base in LilyCove. The sheer amount of examinable stuff with funny flavor text is impressive. "Fire the laser beam like whoa."

Yeah, but neither does my Rayquaza I'm sure. Unless it does which would be great. And Deoxys was 10 levels above me. You'd think it would be able to withstand a hit or two. But looking at bulbapedia, normal form has pretty shitty HP and defenses.

Does mega evolving in contests even do anything? Or is it just there for looks?

They seem to get more points from their standout performance thing. Not sure if it helps with anything else.

Reposting this if you want to get the Secret bases for Junichi Masuda, Shigeru Ohmori, and Shigeki Morimoto.

The interesting thing is that Shigeru Ohmori's base is the only way to legitly get a Regice Doll for your base, so yeah, have at it.

milotic was getting hard to use because of its lack of utility

using kingdra instead

I wish they had done overworld sprites for more than just 3 pokes, though

I'm really enjoying the fact that the games progressively refer to you more and more as the Champion when you defeat the Elite Four. Before they pretty much completely forgot about it no matter how many times you beat them up. It's just feels really good to be acknowledged for being the current toughest in the region. X and Y did it a little, but now it's pretty much in most if not every important NPC.

Also, Professor Birch has crazy issues he needs to sort out.
