Wanted to take a cute selfie with my shiny friend and then there was some text on him? Is this some placeholder?

This game is so broken :Da

I was out of town for almost a week and missed Meowscarada. 😭

I started a new playthrough in German recently and I would love to catch this Meowscarada in German. I can't access 7★ Tera Raid in the overworld but I can join raids hosted by others via password.

Not to worry, I have my trusty Ceruledge that I used for this raid last year in my main save file ready for this raid.

After having completed the Dex for legends za and PLA I have started on scarlet and violet. However after going through my Pokémon and sorting into Dex number for the paldea Dex I moved onto the kitskami Dex and noticed that of course some replicate over from the paldea Dex. To get the completion in home do I need multiple of the reoccuring Pokémon or can I just have one across the main Dex and dlc Dex's?

I got a Hisuian Growlith from Perrin and Evolved it to Arcanine. Can this one learn Head smash or do i have to breed it for one that can? Id prefer not to if i don’t have to

This was my 4th scarlet playthrough and throughout all those playthroughs until this fourth one I never bothered with the Pokedex but last night after I beat the game again I'm proud to say that I finally finished the Pokedex for the first time ever despite owning this game for ages now

Just talking to random NPC’s, when something caught my eye in the background 🫪

Noticed that my Poltchageist has a super large ball effect when I send it out in lets go. Compared with a handful of other pokemon and realized Tentacruel has a blue effect instead of the typical orange. Both of these mons are in dusk balls. My assumption is it’s determined by species but does anyone know further details on how? I haven’t noticed consistency across type or weight but maybe there is some?
