#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing where they go with the story from here on out. Obviously I'm going to get Dawn Wings Necrozma from somewhere, but... where? Is the Ultra Wormhole section going to be totally different? Are all of the mega stones in this game?!

I'm excited to find out.

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- As for how the challenge run is going, it's certainly going. I've mentioned my problems with Dragon-types before, namely how annoying they are to find, but it's really noticeable when I'm trying to keep balanced team comp and I have one (1) usable Dragon and like 17 Fairies.

Still, it's nothing too bad. The hard part was the earlygame and I'm already through that, so it's been largely smooth sailing.

Also, sidenote, this-- what is this, a mini-LP I guess?-- will continue through postgame as well. Just figured I should mention that.

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- In terms of story changes, they haven't really kicked in yet. The assumption is that the story is going to shift into high gear on Poni Island, since the foreshadowing is at prime capacity right now.

As for changes they HAVE made, it's... okay. They basically retconned Lusamine to be obsessed with stopping Ultra Necrozma instead of being lewd with space jellyfish. (That, and the Ultra Recon Squad are hanging out in places.) It's not a horrible change, it just makes me a bit squeamish that Lusamine has been changed from Prime Villain to Anti-Hero when she's been abusing her kids.

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- Okay, so I've reached 30 hours into this game and honestly I'm enjoying it just as much as I enjoyed the original Moon.

A lot of people have expressed annoyance at how little has changed, but I loved Moon so much that it's not exactly a downside to get to play the whole game through again. I'm even considering buying Ultra Sun and playing THAT all the way through as well, but that might be a bit overkill... 💦

There's just enough changes to feel like it has a nice coat of new paint, too. Overall I think it's really nice, but I also enjoyed Sonic Forces, so what do I know?

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- Okay, I've reached Poni Island. Time for a big update on my thoughts on this game. (For those worried about negativity, don't worry, I'm really enjoying this!)

These next few posts are going to be very long and kind of spoiler-y, so they're going to be behind CWs. Hope y'all enjoy reading them~

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- I'm so proud of her

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- Since I'm reaching the big plot stuff, have a team update~

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- Flyboi!!

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- I just realized

The Aether Foundation and Team Skull are symbolic of Necrozma

Team Skull is the base form of Necrozma, they steal away light (Z-power, Buginium Z, island trial kids) and hoard it for themselves

Aether Foundation is The Blinding One/Ultra Necrozma, it spreads light (care & support for Pokemon across Alola)

Gamefreak you sly noodles, I see your game 😜

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure --

Pic 1: Every Pokemon with Dragon typing

Pic 2: Every Pokemon with a typing that counters Dragon-types (not even counting 'mons that can learn Ice or Fairy-type moves without the typing)

#Pokemon #Ultra Adventure --

Gamefreak: So, we want Dragon to be a really special typing. Dragons will be rare, very hard to catch, and will grow extremely slowly, so that the player will have to work at having an extremely rare Pokemon or use Ice Pokemon to counter them.

Gamefreak: Actually, let's make Steel resistant to Dragon, so that Steel is the best defensive type.

Gamefreak: Actually, let's make Dragon weak to Fairy, since there are more Dragons now and they need counters.

Gamefreak: Actually, let's make Fairy and Ice types way more common. They don't get enough love.

Gamefreak: *never makes dragons easier to find, catch, or train*

#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- FINALLY caught a Trapinch

Time to make a dragon boi
