I'm aware the game is universally lambasted but I'm having so much fun with it.

I was battling some woman and a group of five smolives walked by in the background and I noticed one of them had a black olive instead of a green one. After I won against the woman I ran up to the little one with the black olive and it was indeed a shiny. I named her Madeline.

The woman in the city who rates your pokemon's size says I have the thiccest jigglypuff she's ever seen.

Sending out my tandemaus couple for the hundredth time only to find that they've started a family

is probably the most fun surprise I've ever had playing a pokemon game.

    Weird, my experience with Nintendo fans is the exact opposite: they historically have put their fingers in their ears to any criticism and expected you to love it regardless of blatant issues. This time it's a little different since the issues are so blatant.

    I'm personally having a great time playing it too though, but I also recognise that the game has major issues and that the release schedule for this franchise is insane. Devs clearly need far more time than they're given.
