Gotta Catch 'Em All! - Pokémon Thread

[wentwood]

I picked up the year series sets for the episodes but couldn't see waiting 4 years for them to release all 3 series of Kalos plus Adventures In Unova And Beyond.

Series XV Rival Destinies had just gotten their year set.

I also found out that stream license rights expired out on past series. So having them on DVD is preferable.

I watch DVD off wi fi in the winter.

Pokemon Go

I caught a Skitty today.

I also got an 8th Evee as well. Keeping Evee for branch off evolution.

Upgrading also fills in the Poke Dex.

You only have 300 spots in an account.

[ZakuConvoy]

Y'all ready for something cute?

 

[wentwood]

Starting Advance Battle on DVD.

Pokemon TV had Challenge on their feed
so I finished Series VII.

 

[MEDdMI]

Watched all of Pokemon Concierge today. So cute and wholesome and I want more.

 

[wentwood]

In 2010 Boomerang used to start with The Pokemon Water War and end right before the Jhoto Silver Conference Finals.

Finishing Master Quest on DVD to amend for this.

Battle Frontier is the series when they changed voice crews after the WB era.

I'm surprised they didn't hold off till Diamond And Pearl Part 1.

General reminder to plug in all your 3DS and Switch Pokemon games once in a while:

Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS cartridges use NAND flash for storage , not mask ROMs. Like all Flash memory, they "leak" charge over time and eventually lose data. The Switch and 3DS card reader tells game cards to "refresh" themselves periodically...

Nintendo Switch/3DS cartridge lifespan

I've seen multiple posts through the internet about people worried that their cartridges could die anytime in the future due, and given I have a significant collection, I decided to stop guessing like everyone else seems to be doing and start researching into the matter. First we should talk...

As far as Pokemon goes, if I haven't already moved it to the Bank by now, then it's not really something I care whether or not I lose. Still sucks to find out though. I got more DS/3DS games than I care to go through at the moment.

 

[Dekafox]

This isn't just the save file though, this is the game itself that can get bitrotted. Sounded like it's just 3DS on at least, DS and earlier doesn't use the same NAND it sounded like.

 

[Caldwin]

Well, I guess I'll be spending the rest of the night round up my 3DS games *mumble mumble*

 

[Caldwin]

I just tested all of my 3DS games and they all work. So I guess just once a year I'llI'll put each of them in the 3DS for a little bit to keep them refreshed. Feels like a damn nuisance for someone else's shortsightedness.

 

[Echowarrior]

Why does it always feel like something else keeps on popping up to give me trouble?
