Yes folks we're talking Sun and Moon in this damn thread
What are your favorite Pokemon in your run of this game? I have caught a Dhelmise. I have named him Deadweight and he's the best

Favorite as in 'only likable' is Bedlamp, my Shiinotic. She's a great wall together with Slowbro, and with great utility.
Sandslash and fire turtle might have been up there, but I only got them after the E4, so they haven't got much use.

On the lookout for a level 3 purple and green dye shop.

I've got good impressions about the latest installments. Did they do something about perfecting your pokemon's IV and EV's? I know there was speculation about that. Are hm slaves gone? I'd love to see that. Pokemon is continually shedding baggage and moving closer to the sleek inner core it always promised. I may actually get one of these.

HM slaves are a thing of the past.
Perfecting EVs have been trivialized for a good while now, it just requires a bit of grinding.
Getting max IVs can now be done after you catch the pokemon (but only for competitive play, I believe), getting specific ones is still difficult.

Mown I will add you when I get in front of my DS next. Shiinotic is a weirdo but I respect that

TPmanW playing Pokemon Moon is the most fun I've had with a Pokemon game in a while. Definitely my favorite since like Gen 3. I don't want to hype it up more than that but you should purchase and play this game

Was the demo actually representative of the game?

I finally got a rank 2 dye shop. It was the orange one, which is not the best, but that gives me browns, and I like brown as a color a lot, so that's good.

I assume you are aware that I do need to add you as well.
If not, I assume you are aware that I believe that to be the case, and I am waiting for you to educate me.

Not that I've played the demo, but representative in what way?

I made 100 shiny naughty delibirds with max IVs named HappyHoliday and holding charcoal. I'm giving them out on wondertrade.

Since you're clearly injecting, could I bother you about giving me some dittos?

When pokemon bank comes out, sure. You cant currently catch dittos right? So i wouldnt be able to trade them.

Sure you can. They're below that electric place with Sophocles.

For me, a-muk is pretty sturdy, carrying my team multiple times. All the other pokemon I've used have been only so-so, although the dewspider thing was kinda cool.
I'm currently nuzlocking it, which might be the best way to experience pokemon Sadism & Masochism. There are so many distinct areas that you can have a lot of pokemon, but z-moves and totem pokemon make it somewhat easy to lose team members.

nuzlocking is morally wrong

How so?

Booting up a Pokemon game is wrong. As long as you never start up the game, the pokemon inside it are safe. By booting it up, you expose them to danger. You are the one who kills them.

How about this, instead of them dying, they retire. I usually put fainted pokemon in the last box of my PC, to be remembered and honored for their service. When the end of the world (save file) comes, they are enraptured with their active brethren to the realm in the cloud. (Bank)

as long as you never release them and you love them forever

I have no need for failures.
