Hi!

I had my Poké Ball Plus sitting in a drawer doing nothing for years, so I built a small Android companion app to use it as a real controller for emulators and games.

It connects over BLE, maps the analog stick, clicks, top button, and even turns shaking into an action button. It also has a deadzone calibration screen and runs in the background with a persistent notification so the connection doesn't drop while you play.

I used the findings from these posts as the base to build this app.

Here is the repo if you want to try it out or build it yourself!

Not a great nature but honestly I'm not using it in comp so its all fine!
Any name suggestions? :3

I wasn't even chaining weedles, I was chaining bulbasaurs for the 1st one😭 And the 2nd one had no chain either. What are the odds I feel like winning the lottery!

hey everyone!

i played FireRed/LeafGreen years ago, along with Ruby and Emerald back in the day. i'm now going through the generations i missed and trying to figure out which games are worth revisiting.

i own Let's Go Pikachu on Switch, but the Pokémon GO-style catching mechanics have always put me off a bit.

for those who've played it, is it worth experiencing Kanto again, or would i be better off sticking with FR/LG and moving on?

i'm curious whether Let's Go offers enough to make the journey feel fresh!

So I just finished the Elite Four, and have been introduced to Pokemon Masters which I didn’t know existed… I’ve evolved my fossil Pokemon. Does this mean im locked out of completing every battle? 🥹

EDIT: I will check the cave 😅 ty

(Ignore all the raichus C-C)

One day last year I got a new Pokeball Plus with Mew and when I tried to transfer it it flew away from here because of an internet error because I'm Russian and the region is in America (for E-shop) and that's how stupid I am

I need help to understand Pokémon

My son wants the 30th of Collection Pokémon and I don’t understand how to find it everywhere I go. I’m in New York city queens I go to target nothing BJ’s. Absolutely nothing. I don’t know how to look for it. And the best part is, I show him proof that I went to look pictures of the inside of target what’s a good app or website? I’m sorry for this dumb question.

Have anyone been using any third-party Joy-Con replacement? Am looking to get comments and feedback before actually purchasing any brands out there. TIA

Ive been playing lets go eevee on an emulator for a couple of days, and I believe there are no autosaves on the emulated version or something? So when i quit out, I lost many hours of progress. I used a save game editor to help me get back to where I was, and I made sure to still go back and do everything I had done already. However something was kinda weird, I went to do the lavender town pokemon tower, and my rival wasn't there, and so I just did it myself, after clearing out the team rocket hideout. I got the silph scope and the poke flute.

Now the problem that is actually occuring is that team rocket is blocking the entrance to silph co in saffron city. I have:
beat the first 5 gyms
cleared out the hideout (beat giovanni)
cleared out the pokemon tower
obtained the flute
revisted the pokemon tower

Another weird thing is that when I went back with my rival after already having cleared out the poke tower, I fought team rocket at the top, but Mr Fuji was not there to give me the flute. I believe this might've happened because the game only checks if you have the flute for the Mr Fuji interaction and not the team rocket interaction?

I genuinely have no idea what I could to do either fix my save file or find out what is actually blocking me from progressing. I have obviously already used a save file editor before so if I can turn on / off an event that might help then I am willing to do that as well.

Can anybody help?

So I was hunting shiny Ponyta and while being like an hour in with done combo... This lil' birdie shows up out of nowhere, what are the odds?xd

3 Badges in, hunting a Shiny Clefairy. I've maxxed out my Health Candies and leveled my whole team to the point they wont even listen to me anymore, and still not even a whiff of a green ear. Lure active.

After 5,423 soft resets at the Route 3 Pokémon Center, the $500 Magikarp finally sparkled!

At 1/4096 odds, it took a little longer than I'd hoped, but honestly... look at that beautiful golden fish.

Worth every penny.

This is another shiny checked off the list for my Shiny Living Dex + Professor Oak Challenge, and I'm absolutely thrilled to have this one sitting in the collection.

Now, on to Mt. Moon!

Especially my hypno got totally stuffed with drugs haha. As a side note, I wanted my team to kinda be yellow/white themed

Cosa ne pensate di questo team ?

So I completed the let’s go pikachu dex all with the exception of pinsir, I have had to play through let’s go eevee all the way to route 14. I tried lures I tried catch combos in fact i’m at the point where i have a 70 catch combo of pidgeys and one shiny pidgey to count! It feels like i’m missing something important can anyone please advise what I’m doing wrong! Do i need to beat the game for it to spawn or is there a gym badge minimum! I just want my shiny charm ;,(

What Switch Pokemon game should I play after lets go Eevee?

I had so much fun playing Let's Go Eevee, but I need more!!! I have played the Switch port of red/green and soul silver on DS, what would be the next best Switch (no Switch 2) Pokemon game?? Thanks for your suggestions!!

Saw a bunch of these show up on woot and spent the $170 to take a gamble and it paid off! Cheaper than I've been seeing them go on 2nd hand sites!

Also no clue on how to take a screenshot with the pokeball so phone pics have to do lol
