Blaming Todd Howard for absolutely everything that goes wrong in Bethesda games has become such a habitual behaviour for me that I feel like it’s gonna bleed into my real life interactions. 

Watch me walk over to receive my degree, trip on the carpet, and just lay there in my graduation cap and gown saying “Why would you do this, Todd?”

remember the mirage island shit in pokemon r/s/e how fucked was that nonsense

you had to talk to an old man once per day. then the game would generate 2 random number bytes. those bytes would have to both match the also random and unseeable personality values of one of your party pokemon. assuming you had a full party of 6 that was roughly a 1/10000 chance. thats rarer than finding a shiny. and this wasn’t once per random encounter this was once per day. this was the only way to find liechi berries and get gold pokeblocks

this literally sounds like some fake forum post from 2004 but it was 100% real they really put this in the game un fucking believable

between this, feebas, and the regis im beginning to think the fucking riddler played a part in the development of r/s/e

Pokemon is good because everybody who plays is given the exact same storyline and choices, but every person has a completely unique experience.

There are currently over 750 trillion different team combinations, even each individual pokemon has only a 1 in 50 billion chance of being identical to another of the same species. And that’s not even including pokemon having different moves… That means that every Pokemon is a valuable once in a lifetime companion, and your adventure with your pokemon is and will always be completely unique to you, and that’s really special.
