    This was very useful, we love you Zack! I'm getting Violet and this is a long weekend where I live so I'm planning on having 72 hours of hardcore, uninterrupted gaming without even catching a glimpse of sunlight in the entire weekend, just like the gaming gods intended đŸ„°

    If you can get I-bui, if it has any neutral Nature, evolve it into either E-fi or Burakki-, and its Synchro Ability will have each Pokémon you get match the leading Pokémon's Nature. You can be able to up your Pokémon's stats properly.

    One more tip I can share that I've been using ever since the future came out Surprise trade I love it I have successfully obtained all the starters by shoving off all the pokémon I caught early and I got them all before I even left the first pokémon center. I have done this in every version that has had surprise trade as soon as I could because it's how I have successfully obtained the starters in every game that's had it(Now you don't have to do this cuz it is time-consuming it took me three hours of just sitting there spamming trade at the pokémon center, But it felt so worth it)

The creativity isn't there anymore. But as much as I don't like majority of the "New Pokemon" in Scarlet/ Violet. I'll still catch and release all that are trash. Like Avalugg, or that rock one. We're Not talking about onyx or Regirock either. It's literally a boulder with legs. Lmao. I still love the new style. Definitely different and holding my interest.

    For some reason I’m unable to press pause. It worked normally at first, then it just stopped
 I assumed it was just because I was being pursued by wild pokĂ©mon but I’m now outside the cave after feeding the legendary and still can’t press pause. Because of that, I can’t swap my team around or heal them outside of battle.

    Tip: if you want the grass or water starter maybe get scarlet for the fire legendary. Otherwise if you get the fire Pokémon you will have some overlap.
    If you get violet it won’t matter as much which you get bc your legendary is electric dragon.
    Unfortunately I messed up and accidentally chose the grass cat on violet when I meant to do it on the other game. Oh well will just get a different fire PokĂ©mon but later when I also buy scarlet I will run into the 2 fire problem now bc I don’t want the duck.

      What is the significance of your wife being Asian? Why do you always mention that your wife is Asian?

    Best tip for people of 2023: screw what this trashtuber says. Play the game how you find best enjoyable, its YOUR adventure.
