Ugh, that sucks.

How are you planning to go into CT? A new play through or an old file? 

multiple ways! antm1 I'll use my main file first but I'll be using CT-only Pokemon and catching a new team from them like I did with Isle of Armor. I imagine that the only legendaries in the dex will be Birds, Regis and UBs and Calyrex and the others will be Dynamax Adventures, so I'll probably not include Dynamax Adventure Pokemon for my team. Can't wait to get the new birds <3 <3 <3 

 

Then - it depends on whether CT is fully postgame or available during the game - but the 2nd time I play will either be a nuzlocke (including IOA or CT, if CT is during the game) or a wonderlocke (base SWSH only, but chance to get IOA/CT pokemon through wondertrade)

I just spent AGES doing this Pokemon character sorter and it came up with this top 3:

I actually stan the accuracy. cry1 N should probably replace Sabrina but it's whatever.

So here's some info

 

 

Firstly, it's not actually the source code but a development repository which is a completely different thing.

The first commit for Sun and Moon was October 2014, the first commit for USUM was February 2016 and the last commit was May 2017. Because we know that research & development and concepts and things have to be worked on first, it's safe to say that this confirms essentially 3 years production time for a new gen, and 1.5 to 2 for a remake/enhanced version. Which I think was said before at one point, but this essentially confirms it. 

It also confirms (similar to Pokemon Bank back then) that there were 2 IDs for Gen 6 that went unused, but we see they're marked as Kalos Reserves. So pretty likely that this was either a sequel or enhanced version of XY that was for 2015 and scrapped probably early on - since SM started in October 2014. It was definitely planned at the end of 2013 I think but got scrapped within that time - probably so Sun and Moon could be ready for the 20th anniversary).

There's also beta maps flying about. Melemele's isnt that different, just that theres a route going through the middle of the island now (and no sign of Melemele Meadow, Kala'Ebay or Seaward Cave). I haven't seen the others. 

 

Very interesting stuff going into CT next week!!

Really interesting! Gen 6 could have definitely profited a lot from second/enhanced versions.

Yeah absolutely. I think the enhanced version or sequel would have provided Gen 6 megas for the starters, legendaries, maybe things like Talonflame, the fossils, Goodra, Florges etc. The train tracks could have been exploited too. 

 

Although to be honest maybe it was for the best it didn't get released. Sun and Moon really was helped by it releasing in 2016 after GO's hype. Also we assume it would have been released November 2015 which was also the time of the attacks in Paris, and given the context of the "ultimate weapon" and Kalos being based on France... would have been really unfortunate timing. So maybe for the best.

Finally did that sorter. Only did the gym leaders + E4 one though. Pretty accurate I think. I knew what my top 3 would be in advance, I think they've always been that way. I think Agatha used to be ahead of Lorelei for me before (not 100% sure) but LGPE having Lorelei with that extra role in Route 10 just edged her ahead. 

 

I have to laugh at the Kanto e4 positions: 4-5-6-72 eve1 BruNO indeed eve1

I just spent the last few hours ranking all Pokemon before the release of CT. Final evolutions only, no forms. Not fully accurate, but the general gist of it is correct. 

 

My results: LINK / IMAGE LINK

 

Cofagrigus in the bottom, Primarina top 20, Serperior NOT top 5... Were you drunk doing this? ellie1

What the hell.mp3

 

I love love love Cofagrigus, it's one of my favorite ghost mons. cry1 I wish its stats were a little nicer. Especially faster. I don't like using slow ass Pokemon in game. orangu1

Analysed my results by giving 1st place 489 pts down to last place 1pt, and working from there. Nothing surprising on the Generation side for me, I have the most nostalgia for the first two and then I've been active again since Gen 6, so makes sense this is where I was more invested. And the one generation I didn't play while it was actually happening being last. Absolutely checks out.  

Typing results on the other hand... dead2 Normal going from 5 overall to last place when you average the score by the number of mons dead2 I'm honestly SHOCKED that neither Water nor Psychic made it to the top 5 on Average score. Grass being #1 makes sense even tho Water is my fave bc Grass is so consistent as a type - my lowest grass type wasn't even in my bottom 70, thats how consistent it is. The other types (particularly Flying) are great "passive" types imo where I don't think of Flying and think what an awesome type, but all the Pokemon in there are usually awesome for other merits who just happen to be flying type etc. Bug's a little lower than I thought but otherwise the lower ones here are as I'd expect.
