Reflecting on Thirty Years of PokΓ©mon I highlight some special memories from my time with PokΓ©mon, in celebration of the franchise's 30th anniversary.

The latest issue of Johto Times is now available! Vol. 4, issue 3 was an opportunity for me to reflect on thirty years of PokΓ©mon, by highlighting some of my fondest memories.

Plus, a recap of the latest PokΓ©mon news!

PSA: Don't use macros or turbo controllers for SR hunts in FRLG

FRLG is seeded by the timing of your button presses, I put together a controller macro that would reset for starters with high levels of consistency and here are the results after 40 starter resets.

Over half were rng clones!!

Ok I'm sorry, I am breaking my spoiler policy a little here but the connotations warrant it

Stereo Rotom (DJ Rotom) is Electric/Normal-type.

Why would they do such a thing if not for the future?

Overwhelming support, I guess I'm streaming this project!

Right okay, I knew about the flavors, I just wasn't sure if that would make a difference for maxing everything out. Good to know! Thankfully I do have four games/consoles, so I'll see how feasible that setup would be!

I wonder if people can be judged by what games are on their Home screens lol

So here's the thing: Blue was my first PokΓ©mon game. When the remakes first released, I got LeafGreen.

So then why did I fold and preorder FireRed?

What if...I had a fun shiny hunting project specifically for FireRed? And what if...I were to stream it? πŸ‘€

Is there any interest in that? πŸ‘€ πŸ‘€

Ooh thank you for posting this! Maybe this is a dumb question, but a PokΓ©mon's Nature doesn't influence how effective PokΓ©Blocks will be, does it? I want to try and max out each condition

Oh is this your site? I really like it, very easy to keep track of what needs to be done in each game! πŸ˜„

Happy 30th Anniversary to my favourite game series ever. I got PokΓ©mon Red when I was 7 and been obsessed ever since. I love how much this franchise is part of my life, and thanks to it I have met my best friend because of it and made so many other friends.

Here is to another 30 years of PokΓ©mon! πŸ₯‚

The direct is at 4AM for me tomorrow, and I'm already anticipating not getting much sleep tonight. This is basically a second Christmas for me, seeing what sorts of news we will be given. I can't wait to see what's in store for us.

May the next 30 years be just as exciting! πŸ₯‚

A very happy 30th anniversary to PokΓ©mon and to all who love the franchise!

Wild to believe it's been almost 27 years since I got my first PokΓ©mon game, I had no idea how much it would mean to me. I've met so many amazing friends and have made so many memories through PokΓ©mon.

Thank you all β€οΈπŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’›

I have finally gotten my Ribbon Master quests underway! Gonna probably need to do some research on the best PokΓ©Blocks to make for Contest purposes (any advice would be appreciated!), but I'm happy I got this in before PokΓ©mon Day πŸŽ€

Once again showing evidence that I'm the unluckiest lucky shiny hunter! πŸ˜„
I found a shiny Galarian bird today, but of course it HAD to be the ONE I ALREADY HAVE SHINY. 18 birds (5 Articuno, 5 Zapdos, 8 Moltres) seen this phase, and this will be the last Zapdos I ever check lol
