We got to the point in the show when "our heroes" reached the mysterious dark caves of Mt. Moon. I just had to show my friend.

I've never played a Pokémon game in my life but I'm looking forward to finally trying it out with the new Switch game that will come out. - Admin

Double-posting because I'm a thug. You guys picking up the new Poké-games in November? I'm gonna wait for the 2019 "true" game release before trying this franchise for the first time. - Admin

While I'd much rather wait for the true core titles, I'm picking up eevee cause if I'm going to rag on a game I want to know what I'm talking about. That said I'll (try) to keep an open mind about it...

Is no one else getting any of the new games? Was hoping to spark a conversation and getting some 101 tips seeing as I'm so late to the party. I'm gonna pick Grookey soley because I always told myself to pick the grass starter if I ever decided to play a Poké game. - Admin

I'll be getting them regardless, they aren't terrible from the trailers and with some luck MAYBE Game Freak won't be as lazy this time as they have been the past few games.
as for 101 tips:
pay attention to type matchups, abilities, keep revives for league or particularly hard gym leaders/evil team leaders if you even need them at all. Use vending machines, the stuff in there heals decently and is cheaper than pokemart.
Fight every trainer (exp and pokedollars). Don't use legendaries in your party for most content unless you are okay with speeding through the game (mythicals too). If a pokemon has a different coloration than normal, congratulations it's a shiny, catch it if at all possible cause they are rare (less rare than they used to be tho).
every pokemon has IV's and EV's you get EV's by battling mons depending on the type of mon you fight. (don't worry about IV's and EV's unless you enter competitive battling, story is easy typically) IV's are set when the pokemon is caught and can only be modified with super training which requires level 100. Both IV's and EV's effectr a pokemons stats at given levels, a lvl100 pokemon with good IV's and maxed EV in that stat may have 50-60 more in a stat than one with terrible IV's and no EV's for example. You cannot train all EV's to max, at most you can train two to max and put a few points into another
Use whatever pokemon you feel like even if it's not great, don't worry about extreme team building until endgame/postgame.
Breeding is actually pretty complicated, look at a guide for that if you want to use it for more than the heck of it.
You don't need to buy burn/freeze heals, only a few parlyz heals and several poison heals (poison is the only one that stays in effect on the overworld); unless poke refresh is back then unless you need to use one in battle you'll never use them since you can heal your mon of status effects after battle in refresh.
If a pokemon is confused or infatuated or has stat buffs and/or debuffs, switching them out will get rid of them.
Have fun.

I'll probably be getting it, but I'm not much of a pokemon fan anymore, really.

I'm gonna pick Grookey soley because I always told myself to pick the grass starter if I ever decided to play a Poké game. - AdminI think it's easier to have 101 tips once you have questions General advice for story, yeah, I'd boil it down to learning the type matchups, and saving before major fights xD (or when you think you see a major fight coming. Better safe than silly!) Everything else you can probably figure out; it's not a terribly complicated game when you play through story mode :3 I'm probably going to end up getting the new games because FOMO xD But honestly I've been fizzling out on Pokemon as of late, too. I just can't keep up with it like I used to :x The past two generations I've always finished the story (ish) then been like "okay now I'll start EV training and breeding and making cool teams" but then I just lose motivation and stop playing. It's still worth something to play casually, but I definitely don't feel the same way about recent Pokemon generations as I used to :x

Loving every second of it, though I admit I'm more interested in the female protagonist than the pokès, to be honest. I have this weakness for customizable main characters.

Anyone hype for the additional upcoming areas? 2 new "wild areas" is more than enough to get me excited.
