      yes but muscle memory. Its just faster in perception because its an action you've always done. But yes. I did feel like at one point in the game the battle system was much more action rpg with you conducting a live battle while assisting with items and pokemon switching in real time.
      But then they realised. Maybe thats overambitious and defaulted back to pokemon turn based tradition. But they kept what still worked on the old battle system.
      Hope the sequel goes that route.

    I know this is unrelated to the video, but just found this out recently and thought I'd let others know for saving a lot of time for sorting all of their pokemon. A very fast way to organise pokemon is to use the + button for finding the box you want to move them to after selecting them as a group (instead of L and R). If you don't do this, it's a serious pain trying to organise since the group you selected has to be in the exact same shape (3 along and 2 up for example) as the new space in order to move them. However if you press + after selecting 12 pokemon for example, as long as there are 12 or more spaces available in the new box, they will automatically be placed in the gaps (regardless of position) so you don't need to move them a few at a time. This has saved me a tonne of time and now my pokemon are all neatly and easily separated into boxes of normal, Space-time exclusive, alpha, and shiny pokemon so it's much easier to find the pokemon I want. Hope this helps some people...and also hope there's a future QoL patch to make sorting pokemon easier.

    I like how you talked about the radius in which we hear and see shinies in this video. I assumed that as long as I could see the Pokémon below me then I would at least see the sparkle if it’s shiny. Found out last night that that isn’t the case. I hovered over a ponyta outbreak and could clearly see a blue ponyta but wasn’t alerted either way that it was shiny until I descended low enough for it to register. Same thing happened with a shiny voltorb. There appears to be a height cap for viewing shinies that I wasn’t aware of and hadn’t seen touched on in any shiny hunting videos that I’ve watched.

    you can also do this if a mass mass outbreak overlaps a alpha, so if you finish the MMO there for example the gardevior in the icelands you can save after the MO disappears and relogging the game will make the alpha reapear with completely different shiny luck and stats and everything

    I was very confused because I don't think there is any pokemon naturally that color on the iceland. I decided to land to check it out.

    For a regular going to jubilife and back alpha hunt, I recommend the sneasal right next to the second camp in alabaster. It’s over the hill to your left and two regular sneasal are right next to it so you have a pretty good chance for getting a shiny sneasal in general.

    That Braviary from atop Snowpoint Temple is now a great method to farm Braviary for the dex entry since he respawns like every not-even 5 minutes, and is also just a great way to farm experience. Do the other various airborne Pokemon respawn that quickly? I've never noticed it with the others, but then again Snowpoint Temple is less out-of-the-way than the other spawn-points; like you're eventually going to get there whereas the others are in fairly unimportant areas, maybe it's more noticeable here because you'll have to keep going back for whatever reason (I personally used the top of the temple as a starting point to glide over the whole region to look for wisps).

If you capture her before talking to Warden Melli, Cresselia will not give you the plate, and a cutscene will activate where Melli asks you to capture Cresselia, which is now impossible since it's already been captured and does not respawn. Please make a video covering this bug so that Game Freak / Nintendo / the internet becomes avidly aware of the bug so that it can be patched to help those who have been unable to finish the game because of it!

    Just commenting to say that I'm glad to see someone pronouncing Arceus correctly. :P I think Arceus is the only Pokemon that even the dub team had a hard time deciding how to pronounce it. In some scenes, they say Ar-kay-us, in others, they'll say Ar-kee-us, which is hella confusing. Ever since Arceus was released years ago, most fans and myself pronounced it the way you do and I think that's because we got the pronunciation from Japanese commercials and promos. My fiance and I recently did a double check on how it's pronounced in the dub and reaffirmed that the dub team doesn't really care anymore, lol. So we go by the original pronunciation in the Japanese version. :)
