Who is your favorite Kanto starter? And who did you originally start your journey with all those years ago?

I originally started with Squirtle, but over the years have been gravitating towards the Saur line. Still love them all.

I remember when I was 8 I couldn't figure out where to go after getting Oaks Parcel. I legit was stuck in Pallet town until I had a level 22 Wartortle. I spent a few hours crying 😢 trying to figure it out. Wild how the brain can remember something so insignificant at the time.

Let's just say when I did figure it out. Brock about pooped his pants. Now all these years later I know you can A. Buy Pokeballs and skip the quest or B. Just deliver the parcel... 🤣

Personally I always have considered Pikachu a starter as well. Even if he isn't one! To many early mornings before school watching Ash battle 😆 I geuss technically he is also a starter in Yellow and the Kanto Let's go Remake. So im not all the way wrong? 🤔

Anyways cheers yall! And Goodluck on your pack opens! Let me know your favorites!

Spent the last 9 days and holiday (Labor Day) working. Decided to reward myself. My inner 8 year old could not be happier.

They had both. 1 Charmander and 3 Bulbasaur. I really liked both but this one is just to peak. Has the Pokemon Center, Pikachu, and a Pokeball. Huge Viridian Forest vibes.

About to spend my day off sitting on my rear while playing some Leaf Green! Bulbasaur I choose you!

Best part my boy Sandshrew is a Green exclusive!!! Let's go!!!!

I went ahead and added a picture of the Charmander one incase someone is just wondering what it looks like in general. I found them at my local target.

Would imagine these launched with Leaf Green and Fire Red, but I'll gladly be late than never!

Been feeling a bit mentally drained. This was a much needed pick me up!

Little heads up post for everyone. If you are contempt with where you at with Ruler, just hold onto your packs the rest of the day until Rocket launches. Nothing crazy.

Anyways cheers yall. Goodluck on your pulls tonight and moving forward.

*WARNING* I do not suggest spending your currency on this set! *WARNING*

Why? This set is a noob trap.

  1. The Rocket Set will be a Mini Set. Most cards won't end up being that difficult to trade for later on for that reason alone.

  2. Any themed cards typically fall out of meta quickly because they don't make more cards based around the theme in later sets to often. They are typically pretty useless in the future. Good example? Look at Ultra Beasts who were decent for a meta and then garbage since.

  3. They are releasing an extremely hype set like Rocket on purpose to try to get you wasting all your currency. Why? They will be dropping DX B or whatever it ends up called right after. They do this on purpose so that you burn all your currency and then when a limited time pack comes out you feel pressured into buying packs.

  4. There is literally ZERO reason to rush even if you want to open Rocket. Simply hold all your currency until the end of the Rocket Set. Then when we get more information around the 20th you can make your choice then. Remember you can always go back and open Rocket packs. You cannot repackage packs back into hourglasses though for a new DX set.

With all this said. You are all welcome to do whatever you want. I just want to let everyone in on my mental going forward.

Personally I plan to hit Masterball this season and next. Get a combined 190 trophies from that. Have 240 currently. Will get 2 shop resets, then whatever from events and daily. Hopefully by the time we are there I'll be around 600-700.

If it ends up not being a new DX set around the 20th when we get a new set announcement then I'll open Rocket. If it is a new DX set I'll hold and send on it when it comes out. Then work on Rocket when a future set comes out that I dont really like that much.

Anyways Goodluck on your pulls yall and have a solid day!

Edit : Even if you have zero trophies currently you can start saving now. You can easily end up around 500 minimum if you start today.

Get Masterball x2. Shop reset x2, monthly events next month, new battles, daily 4 for like a month and a half.

And if it's like last year. We will get a ton of currency day one of the new DX set as well because it ties into the 2 year anniversary. Which I am sure will be really great rewards.

Just wanted to add this here because I saw it as a running concern from a few people who say they have nothing after DX. You could easily get yourself to a minimum of 4 10 pulls if you really want too.

Also thanks for the 250 upvotes! Glad I could help! <3

Why do some games require so much memory when it seems like they shouldn't?

So yea the title basically. I enjoy gaming but I do not understand the technical side of how it works I geuss.

I just dont understand how a game like Elden Ring which is a MASSIVE world with tons and tons of content, bonkers graphical detail, and even a DLC which is almost an entirely second game is only 91.1 GB total.

Yet when I went to download Overwatch. I expected it to be maybe I dont know 40-50GB at most? Its basically a dozen maps, 30 characters, and a battle pass with cartoon graphics. Yet somehow it's 91.7GB? Literally more memory than both Elden Ring and its DLC combined?

And I know Overwatch isn't anywhere near a big offender. I have heard people's complaints with CoD so many times for memory nuking their console.

But yea why is it like this though? Just seems so backwards to me. Games with next to no Content like Halo Infinite Multiplayer for example requiring 71GB... for what? To load 20 maps and weapons with a Character model?

Meanwhile you have another game like Hogwarts Legacy. Massive world, insane graphical detail, infinite assets to load, entire skill trees, pools of items, inventory systems, cutscenes, npcs, dialogs, etc etc etc.... and it requires 61GB.

Am I lost? I dont understand why these very simplistic games take an arm and a leg from our consoles memory.
