Also, in case you missed it, size variation between Pokémon of same species is seemingly back in.
We saw a little bit of it with Mareep last month but here it's a little more obvious with Sunflora

@JoeMerrick
We're almost at the time. A new generation is almost upon us and the pre-launch cycle is about to truly begin.
I love these times. I'll be sure to do my best covering it on Serebii for you all.
The next 6 months will be wild!

@JoeMerrick
This promo card too though!

@JoeMerrick
Remember when Pokémon GO removed 2 and 4 star raid battles to simplify raids?

@JoeMerrick
No, yelling at every social media post that you want news, a trailer or a Direct doesn't mean they'll suddenly release one or change the plans they've had for months.

@JoeMerrick
Remember with Tera Raids; think about what type of Pokémon it was originally as it will likely have those moves too
So often I see people go in with Pokémon which are weak to it normally and they ended up getting OHKO'd

@JoeMerrick
Gosh I love this takeover so much #PokemonWorlds

@JoeMerrick
Tera Raid tips
Think of their original type for your defence so if they're usually an Ice-type, don't bring a Dragon-type
Think of their Tera type for your attacks
Use the Serebii raid lists to double check opposing moves

@JoeMerrick
Remember how people were saying they were doing an Eevee evolution countdown to the news and so it clearly meant a new Eevee evolution must be revealed in this trailer?
I remember.

@JoeMerrick
Niantic giving extra rewards for local Raids in GO, that's good.
Niantic removing the weekly 1 coin Remote Raid Pass and removing the discount for buying 3 Remote Raid Passes...that's horrible

@JoeMerrick
These backpacks though

@JoeMerrick
So I sat through and timed the phases of the day in the game
72 minute day so basically equivalent of 3 minutes per hour
Evening gives you a 6 minute window to evolve your Own Tempo Rockruff

10 years. That almost makes it "retro"

@JoeMerrick
Six years ago today we got our first look at Pokémon Sun & Moon gameplay, revealing the Starter Pokémon
Can't believe that was six years ago

@JoeMerrick
Gosh they have gone all out here

@JoeMerrick
Always remember, people on the Internet who you converse with are still people, & even though it's the Internet, it can get to people. High follower count also doesn't mean they should just accept it
This shroud of anonymity bringing out the vileness is just horrendous
Be kind.

This hat is so dumb and I love it

The gang's all here! #anipoke

@JoeMerrick
This is quite a stunning amount.
Despite the jank performance, these are really fun games and I'm seeing so many people have so much fun with them.
If they can stabilise it in the future and provide DLC/updates, then these could be amongst the best games. twitter.com/SerebiiNet/sta…

@JoeMerrick
Now this is the more intriguing part of the trailer, after the chest gets 1000 coins in the story...

@JoeMerrick
This is the first time since it released that you can actually get Cinderace in a Poké Ball other than the standard Poké Ball.
What did you get yours in? twitter.com/SerebiiNet/sta…

@JoeMerrick
Not paying attention in class in Scarlet & Violet?
I've got you covered with a cheatsheet for those pesky exams serebii.net/scarletviolet/…

@JoeMerrick
Also I like how the YouTube video's thumbnail is basically what any Youtuber's thumbnail would be, down to the red arrow. Perfection
