I was surprised Paldea Tauros was listed as a Fighting type, it looks like it should be a Dark type.

It probably highlights that a lot of what Game Freak wanted to do with Pokemon Scarlet/Violet was too much for the Switch hardware. But I'd like to congratulate Nintendo on making their first Bethesda RPG. Oh, it's definitely not on the hardware. Xenoblade 3 isn't without its own problems but it runs a million times better than this does despite also being far more ambitious.

Just ran into a shiny Donphan. Brings me to three so far in Scarlet - that, Gabite, and Bronzor.

From what I see on twitter... a lot of people experiencing frame issues with Pokemon are playing off the SD Card and not system memory...
swapping it to system seems to fix that particular issue (which might explain why I didn't have that issue)

God I miss the GTS. It's such a pain in the ass having to go around flashing Quaxlys at random strangers in the desperate hope they'll offer me one of the starters I don't have in return when before I could park one in there asking for the other and I'd have it back like 10 seconds later. It'd be a bit less annoying if they didn't always drag ass on updating Home until months after the fact for some idiot reason but they do so...
Needing to somewhere find Fuecoco, Gulpin, Clauncher, Dreepy, Misdreavus, Iron Treads, Iron Hands, Iron Jugulis, Iron Thorns, Iron Valiant, and Miraidon. Those, some trade evolutions, Palafin, and Gholdengo are my last major barriers to finishing the Pokedex.

What are the actual odds of finding a shiny?

What are the actual odds of finding a shiny? Variable depending on the circumstances but the general rate of it is 1 in 4,096. Those'd be the odds I found three of mine at though the Bronzor was after a lengthy clearing through an outbreak that dropped it to 1 in 1,365.

I don’t have time tonight to bread the starters I have but if you have a level 38 Palafin you can jump into my game quickly and level it up once to evolve. And as for Gholdengo that doesn’t need another player you just need 999 of the coins it’s pre evolved form drops and then level it up (Unless my brain read your message wrong then ignore me)

Granted I am making progress on that, I think I only need about 200 more at this point. Appreciate the offer though, might move on that tomorrow if you're available.

I've played every generation of pokemon and have never encountered a shiny (that I know of) let alone caught one.
I'm thinking of getting violet but every time I look at Nintendo prices and sales I run away in fear.

I don't think that one counts since it given away like that, but I think I killed (err fainted) it none the less. Lol.

That was by far the easiest elite 4 I’ve ever encountered, ran through 3.5 with one Pokémon.
