    Pokémon: Forget Ultra Sun and Moon, Core Game for Switch Announced

    Well, I found the problem. Pokemon Y was corrupt(but not my save data) and this was causing the SD card to have issues with other software(like the eShop, which was trying to check the SD card before opening). Copied everything off the card and deleted everything(sans corrupt files), ran a quick chkdsk and problem solved, data recovered and 32GB MicroSD intact.

    And now I can get back to the demo. I've already done the main demo, along with the other things(the slowpoke barricade, fighting all the trainers, pokemon catching challenge). That guy outside the Pokecenter is odd though. He says to come back "tomorrow"(not today, not the day after - it has to be tomorrow), and I did but it isn't registering. I'd read a guide saying it was active on the 18th, but the way he talks felt like it should be relative to when the demo was first played. Did I miss that one for good?

    I'm curious how they'll implement transferring Gen 1 pokemon to Sun/Moon. A lot of them have different moves(including ones their later-gen counterparts can't learn, like Machop's Fissure) and that would make some Gen 1 transfers truly unique. While I'm sure old things like DVs(and the single Special stat that was split) will be normalized to some extent, I hope they at least maintain Gen 1 specific skill sets.

    They've already said you can transfer Gen 1 to Sun/Moon through Pokemon Bank

    I've been getting back into it myself, but even older--I never finished Ruby back in the day, so I put it on my phone and finally did.  Not gonna "catch 'em all" this time, though--that was a sane thing to do when there were only 150 of them, and I even did the 250 in Silver, but Gen III and up is nuts, especially since it requires trading across 4 games or more instead of just 2.

    What I'm working on now is LeafGreen, randomized.  It's an interesting experience--not only getting Gen II and III pokemon in the Gen I setting, but how getting certain 'mon early is broken one way or another.  Some just stomp everything, but some, like the quasi-legendaries, are terrible at low levels.  It encourages you to use pokemon you wouldn't ordinarily make a part of your main team.  I'm having a lot of fun with it.

    At least the newer Gens make it more manageable through online trading.

    A new Pokemon, named Rugarugan, and it has a daytime form and a nighttime form.

    Also, that Ultra Beast jellyfish thing is now joined by a muscle man mosquito and a ... silverfish? alien woman? Ghost child? No idea.

    This gen is getting wweeeeeeiiiiiirrrrrrd.

    Probably an evolution of the dog one.  Rockruff, I think.
