Time to call every Stunfisk over since it's so flat, it's not noticeable. Also, I want the Wimpod the most but I'm not gonna get it. #SwordCurryBQ

So, Mimikyu is getting an evolution right that will be featured in Pokemon: Wild Card...the Mimikyu card they showed was a basic Pokemon not an ex.

Before Bank shuts down next February, we should shiny hunt our favorite Pokemon and/or a Pokemon that just means a lot to you in the 3DS Games then leave it in Bank to be sent to Valhalla. Make memories with it before you let it go.

Abby @shretro.bsky.social · 08/08/2026

My brain is cooking with too many ideas for an USUM Difficulty Hack with the Expansion Mod... Like imagine having the player choose between one of the PLA Starters but they have to decide if they want to delay the evolution until Ultra Space to get their Hisuian Variant instead instead of the OG.

I think the average Pokemon Player has a convenience complex where they want everything to be handed to them and the second they have to put in work for something, they start to complain. Like Trade Evolutions, the E-Floette grind, etc. are perfectly reasonable. Just play the game you bought.

this is just a personal thing and isn’t that deep but i just don’t understand why so few people can engage with red and blue as normal video games. they’re good RPGs on their own merits. they’re not only worth playing for their glitch potential or as weird upscaled/“modernized” projects

Shiny Giratina in Platinum after 4,123 SRs.✨ Only 51 Minutes and 94 Luxury Balls to catch, thought it would taken a lot longer. Most stressful capture of my life.

What Water-Type should I use in Pokemon Red and what King of the Hill Character should I name it after? Barring Blastoise, Omastar, Kabutops, Vaporeon and Lapras. Currently I have: Hank Hill the Ivysaur Bobby Hill the Butterfree Peggy Hill the Jigglypuff

Following Pokemon in Alola...Real?! I didn't make this, I learned about this today. Tested on Pokemon Sun on my Red Original 3DS. Only issue I had is that Sun and Moon require version 1.0.0 to work. gamebanana.com/mods/694400

Anyone who still uses ShinyDex, if you cannot stop using it after seeing this clip regurgitating bigoted talking points. Unfollow me. I don't want to see you around. Fuck off.

Abby @shretro.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

It's kinda embarrassing if you're a shinydex ambassador/pro user and haven't spoke out about it at all. I do understand it's the weekend and people are busy, but still.

Why am I not surprised that ShinyDex uses AI, glad I never switched over. Wouldn't be the first time I've made fun of that site.

Very smart, Pokemon but I see what you're doing... Casually revealing Dive is coming to Pokopia, showing Brendan's Outfit and having Bubbly Basin being released in August. Gamers, get your Trumpets ready, Ruby and Sapphire are probably coming in August.
