Am I The Only One Around Here Who Doesn’t Care About Legendary Pokemon?
New information about Pokemon Sun and Moon is coming out in drips and drabs. We’re still waiting on the evolution of the new starters (and I’m still a Litten man), but here’s a short video introducing the two legendary Pokemon for the game! And I couldn’t care less!
I haven’t cared about a legendary Pokemon since Mewtwo. I just don’t see the point. You get them automatically. Pick whichever one is on the cover, and the story gives you that one for free. There’s no skill, no hunting, no real challenge. And there’s always some lame reason why these two Pokemon are the best ever, despite there being two similar legendary pokemon for the past several games.
I’m probably gonna go with the cosmic space bat.

Behold, Our New Pokemon Starters!
The new starters for Pokemon Sun and Moon were revealed today, and I definitely think I’m going with the kitty cat.
That’s Rowlett the grass type, Litten the fire type and Popplio the water type. The cat looks cool as heck, so I think I’m definitely down for the Litten this go around. But we’ll see how their evolutions play out. If that seal/clown thing gets really cool by the end, I might have to switch. The owl does nothing for me.
You can find more information about them at the official website.
There’s an introductory video too, and we get to see the new iconic Legendary pokemon. Sun gets a lion and Moon gets a bat.
Even though bats are my favorite animal, I can’t quite decide which I like better! That lion would go well with my new Litten…
Either way, I’m just grateful that I won’t need to buy a new handheld console to play this game. Seriously, twice now in my life I have bought a brand new Nintendo DS just to play the new Pokemon game. That is not responsible adulting. The game comes out on Nov. 18.
What do you henchies think? Got a favorite choice already? Let me know in the comments!

My 6 Favorite Pokemon
There’s a new Pokemon gaming coming out this year! Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon will be with us in due time, along with the announcements of the new starters and the reveal of the new roster of critters. This is an exciting time…and I’m not sure if I should be this excited. Honestly, I really, really don’t know where my love of Pokemon comes from…It’s just the same exact game every single time!
Behold our new obsessions!
I first got into Pokemon back on the original Game Boy. I was on my way to a weekend summer camp, and my dad stopped by a store to pick up some supplies, and I bought a gaming magazine. I don’t even remember if it was about gaming in general or Pokemon specifically. But by the time I got home from camp, I knew I needed to go out and buy Pokemon. I picked Pokemon Blue, for reasons that will be apparent by the end of this list. I loved the game, and I’ve bought every new generation since. I don’t buy the tie-in stuff, like Pokemon Arena or Pokemon Rescue Squad, but I have always bought at least one half of the main games.
On two separate occasions, I went out and bought brand new handheld gaming consoles just so that I could play the new Pokemon game. Thankfully, Sun and Moon are still on the 3DS, so I don’t have to destroy my bank account again this year.
But in celebration of the new games, and for Pokemon’s 20th anniversary, I’ve dedicated this list to my top six favorite Pokemon of all time! Join me after the jump!
