Thanks for watching, and for those of you excited for the game, let me know which version of BDSP you'll be playing! (Also anyone excited for Pokemon Legends: Arceus???)

  2. Knew most of this stuff but still awesome video played pokémon up till about gen 3 on my Gameboy advanced what seems like a lifetime ago recently got me a switch oled cause I got tired of waiting for the ps5 or xsx to be available for me at msrp. I've owned the switch for about a week and and got 71 hours in brilliant diamond and got shiny pearl as well for another playthrough and to be able to trade with my gfs switch v1.

  3. Does anyone else ever wish that they just made a remaster of blue and red? Like 3D and more badass but all the same little tricks and storyline and everything

    The grand underground is in Eterna city and speak to the old guy next to the Pokémon center
