Good luck!

I’m using the Masuda Method too with mixed results. Took just 8 eggs for a shiny Nickit, 5 for Turtonator … but no such luck with Wooloo or Clobbopus. lol

I am on 840 eggs now without shiny. And counting. Also Masuda Method with shiny charm.

Someone hosted it. I joined and decided it was a good time to use my Masteball. :wink:

There’s a Pokemon Direct coming up (6:30 AM PST on 01/08) and it stated that it has to do with Sw+Sh. My guess? They are adding something to the game. I doubt it’s a ton of new Pokemon, but I’d bet on some of the ones already in the code.

I also assume we’ll finally hear more about Pokemon Home as well as that weird Pokemon Sleep thing they previously announced.

Really doubt they would do anything more than a smallpatch for bugs, the only way they’re improving SwSh is with another game

There are 35 Pokemon in the code that aren’t in the game. While I also don’t think they are doing anything drastic, I do see them allowing people to move those 35 to SwSh. It would tie in with the Pokemon Home feature, which is something I also believe they will touch on in the Direct.

Some people seem to think it’s about the Sinnoh re-makes, but that’s just wishful thinking. 1. They have stated that this is about SwSh and 2. It’s way too soon to announce the next game. lol

Let’s hope Diamond and pearl remakes!

They are in the game though, you’ll be able to obtain them through events or Home
They arent meant to be obtainable through regular gameplay

Also, guys, lets not hope for any main game

That’s what I’m saying. This Pokemon Direct is probably just going to introduce more information about how Home works and point out “Hey, by the way, you can get the following Pokemon by using Home” …

Welp. We all got that wrong. Gamefreak pretty much just shocked the Pokemon community. lol

Highlights:

  • Pokemon Mystery Dungeon DX is coming in March of 2020
  • Pokemon Home is coming in February of 2020

Pokemon Expansion Pass DLC:

  1. Isle of Armor coming in June of 2020
  • Leon’s mentor takes you under his wing for further training.
  • Depending on your version, you get a new rival.
  • New Wild Are w/dens will appear with Pokemon never before seen in Sw+Sh.
  • New fighting type legendary: Kubfu, a fighting type. It evolves into Urshifu who can be either a fighting/dark or fighting/water. It will also have two g-max versions.
  • G-max forms for the Galar starters.
  • New clothes, etc.
  • G-max forms for Venusaur and Blastoise
  1. The Crown Tundra in Fall of 2020
  • New dens w/Pokemon never before seen in Sw+Sh
  • New co-op: Players can now enter the dens with other players and adventure around inside of them.

  • New regis.
  • New Legendary; Calyrex which is a grass/psychic type.
