I have been playing since launch and yeah, it has been a lot of fun. I skipped a lot of games, so I don't have a lot to compare it to. I enjoy the open world and how it is in turn, open ended. Going about the game how I want. I also like how Pokémon are wondering around and how the battle system works. The game doesn't look great though, and I have seen a lot of weird stuff with the NPCs, but that doesn't bother me too much.

Never done hunting or chaining or egg hatching, never even had a non-event based shiny in game before... then today randomly walked into and caught an 'ultra shiny' today... ...Skwovet. 🤏 So strange, just started violet. Got to the first bit area 1 and ran into a shiny scatterbug… so two new gens straight ran into a rando low level shiny at the start. Interesting strat, been running round for an hour in this little bit. Game seems huge!

Has anyone tried trading Pokemon over the internet?

Got my Shiny Charm tonight, and completed the Gym Leader rematches and the tournament.
I’ve got a living dex of all 400 complete bar Mariadon (which I’ll play Scarlet and then trade for one with my Kariadon).
I’m gonna start Scarlet just to play through and get the legendaries. Tip to anyone playing through and wanting the 4 legendaries at the post game, don’t pick out any of the stakes you need mid playthrough. Wait until the end game and follow a guide for all 32. Bloody nightmare when you’ve forgotten what ones you’ve done, not as bad as the wisps in Arceus but still annoying.

Would appreciate an answer to this question:
I have physical copies of Scarlet and Violet I have two Nintendo Switches Both switches are signed into my account My primary account has completed the main story of Scarlet
QUESTION IS... If I put Violet into my second Switch, would it be possible (and legal) to trade Pokemon with myself?

Isn’t that almost the exact situation as trading to yourself with two GBAs and two copies of the game with the cable? They couldn’t stop you even if they wanted to. I can’t see any reason why they should object.

I just finished doing a Shiny DTQ of Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu.
Team was:
Blastoise Pidgeot Vileplume Arcanine Jolteon Dragonite
Longest hunt was 36 hours for Growlithe, shortest was 30 minutes for Oddish (after getting the combo). I seen 2 Shiny Porygons, another Pidgey and got away with only 1 Chansey as well. I had to hunt Squirtle twice since I got one after 400 encounters and it ran, so I got lucky that another one appeared 500 encounters later.
Overall, most fun playthrough I've done of the game, with my OG Firered team in Shiny form.
I've completed the game, done all my master trainers and beat Red/Blue & Green and got the Shiny Charm thanks to being halfway through a save of Eevee and only needing to run to the power plant to grab Koffing and Weezing and Fushia City for a Pinsir.
