Am I the only one who doesn't give a damn about Event Pokemon?
Hrm.
@robbybedfart:
Same difference. Rare legendary I wont ever actually use, its just completionism…
I don't care about the event critters, I prefer using crappy underdog critters and taking them to the top with interesting movesets than just using something thats inherantly going to be awesome. (i'm using a dunsparce for my next game!) I'm a bit miffed about the inability to have full completion of a dex, and the inability to transfer date over easily. It was one thing when it was "just" 150, or even 250… but at this point, 490 critters strong, and like 40 of them rare legendaries.... and another 100+ critters no doubt coming with the next game... ugh. They need to start allowing for easier data trading.
I'm mostly interested in these latest giveaways because they trigger a lot of other things in the remakes. (Notch eared pichu, Latios/Latias, Arceus event, etc.) So its basically getting one legendary so you have a shot at getting 2 or 3 more. And hey, a shiny is a shiny.
Which is stupid and unfair, especially given that its timed AND limited locations.
I also think they should take the shiny rarity waaaaaay the hell down. Or if there must be an impossible to obtain shiny color, have a more common alternate color. 1 in 100 chance of finding a thing, instead of 1 in 8,000. Something!
