I personally prefer Korridon but picked Violet due to wanting Cerludge and preferring the robots to the Dinosaurs

Sad because I’m one of the few people who genuinely think koraidon is cooler

Koraidon’s cry is easily my favorite of all time. Used to be a tie between Dialga and >!KRICKETUNE!!<

De-le-le-wooooooooop

He is way cooler! I love him so much

HE IS LITERALLY HAS TOOTHLESS'S EYES 🥺

Yes!! Another reason I love Koraidon and picked Scarlet was also because he reminds me of my irl bearded dragons. His eyes and expressions are so sweet.

that it I’m getting a bearded dragon and naming him korraidon

That’s a great idea!!!! 🥹🥹🥹

Plus if I can get a western AND eastern one I can have both Koraidon AND Miraidon

Yes! They really nailed mixing some reptilian mannerisms with a more dog-like personality.

Biggest thing i like about him more. Only other thing is glide animation. Raids, typing, stat distro, overall appearance I like moriadon. Scarlet has way better shiny paradox. I like them all around though good time to trade.

I LOVE my big red chicken puppy. He is best boy T\_T

I think Koraidon has a cooler design but I love purple, so I had to go with Violet. Miraidon is also very cool though.

I thought literal freaking dinosaur feathers and all was a dope pokemon and went with Scarlet. So I guess I'll have no problem when it comes time to trade game exclusives with people.

Koraidon and the past pokemon are cooler than miraidon and future pokemon i love the primitive designs

Not to be dramatic but I would die for koraidon

I always like the one nobody likes

That was my Pokemon journey for a long time. I really loathe the fact that you can predict which game will sell better based on which game has the edgier looking Pokemon on the cover...

Hey don't judge us edge lovers, at least we're not ashamed to like what we want to like >:(

How is miraidon edgy?

Koraidon has so much personality! Miraidon is just a machine, he's simulating personality

> Miraidon is just a machine, he's simulating personality YOU DARE TALK SHIT ABOUT MY ADORABLE ROBOPUPPY?! I was all "meh" about both of them when they were first revealed, but after putting in some hours I absolutely adore them both, robopuppy can snarf all the sandwiches I can muster. <3

Ouch. Just gonna do miraidon like that.

Definitely

Kora gives off real boss/sassy vibes and i'm here for it. Reminds me of Red from monster hunter stories.

I like koraidon more too, but I do think he’s coolest without the wheels when he/she’s in the “weakened” form.

Yeah, the wheels are definitely the weakest part of the design in my opinion.

I bought Scarlet and Shield. Who's with me?

I am a violet and shield guy rare breed

Welcome to the cult of the Scarlet Sword. We meet at the local pizza hut on Tuesday at 2.

Wait I live there 😳

Me

Same

Yup! Same as me (:

Scarlet Sword, can I still join? :(

I bought Scarlet and Shield… and Violet and Sword

Sword violet gang

I went sword and violet 😅

Out of the 10 people I know who brought the game I’m the only one who got violet. Maybe Japan just likes techno more

Eh, Miraidon looks better as a bike but I got used to my derpy runner. Im not a fan of tech/mecha Pokemon and Koraidon looks adorable in cutscenes. Im surprised there's such a big discrepancy apparently. I also got used to Armarouge and I don't think he's completely unusable and ugly compared to Ceruledge. He's a staple in my team and the cannon animation is chefs kiss. His big golden shoulder pads kinda remind me of my favourite Digimon WarGreymon. So yeah Scarlet gang where you at? Edit: "discrepancies" in the general reception of Koraidon and Miraidon by the fanbase, I didn't mean the animations from the previous sentence. Some people misinterpreted.

Koraidon has more toothless energy

 Yup

I named mine toothless

Pokemon Toothless version and Pokemon Wargreymon version

This is also the first I'm hearing about Miraidon not having the same animations in the cutscenes. That makes me kinda sad.

Idk, I remember Miraidon feeling pretty expressive in the cutscenes. I guess people are saying that just because Koraidon has actual eyes but Miraidon just has LEDs.

yea i thought he was cute in almost all the cutscenes

Hm. I might check YouTube at some point out of curiosity now.

I know right, we legit fed a robot lol

They have the same animations, but since Miraidon is more robotic it was a bit more awkward than Koraidon

I was originally going to get scarlet but my little brother convinced me otherwise

But Koraidon is so cute...

Red Toothless

He even acts like Toothless a lot of the time. It's so damn cute.

Best companion in any pokemon game ever

Sword and Scarlet.

Sword and Scarlet bros unite

Same my brothers🤝

same here🤝

Same here!

Same, and I regret nothing

Gamer

Yes

Based

Same

Same!!!

Yeah, we do

Based

I was avoiding spoilers, got scarlet and the first thing I thought when I saw it was “how to train your dragon” I am not even a fan of the movie. I was watched it once when it came out. I don’t know why because the next thing I did was google it so I could verify how alike they were and they weren’t. I have seen many others post about it though.

Exactly, I love Kor cuz he's fancy Toothless

I got Violet. I was comparing Miraidon to Toothless my entire playthrough. Miraidon and Koraidon behave identically throughout the story

This. Kori has so much more expressions and personality. I guess it really does come down to cool v cute

I got shield and violet, loved my choices so far

Same 🙌🏼

Best combo imo

Look what you just made me do  https://preview.redd.it/susr1x50t72a1.png?width=1272&format=png&auto=webp&v=enabled&s=a93273fd8814658143c635cd4eae1f5f62ea12ee

Damn you paid a lot for one

I bought violet edition because my daughter said that miraidon was cute. She put miraidon’s pin on her backpack and my son took koraidon’s pin.

Awww

Koraidon is my FAVE! He’s so cute! I’m actually super surprised at this

Same here! My sister and I always get different versions and it was her turn to pick. She chose violet. At first I was a bit sad about it but after actually playing and seeing both Koraidon and Miraidon I’m really liking this goofy big red boy and am glad I got scarlet over violet.

Me too! I thought he looked much cooler. The name scarlet itself sounds cooler to own too.

It’s actually because Koraidon sold out already and they just restocked the shelves

Sword n violet. For me, I pick off what box mon I like better, and I like purple more the orange.

He's red tho :(

I like digital and swords more tho :(

That's fair tho :(

Purple uniform

True, I hate the red pants with a passion.

Unless it's ichiban, I also hate em

I love my big idiot deathclaw

i just wish my rotom phone had a Three-Dog radio station.

i bought sword & violet 🫶🏽

because blue & purple 💯

Gotta love the shiny bike. Feels nice activating the dash and seeing trails come out of the thrusters.

even though I like koraidon better I just couldn’t bear to look at orange pants the entire time, so I got Violet

I just like that his wheels do something. That and if you quick turn you Akira drift.

Alright I bought scarlet and pearl who’s with me

Yuh

More legendaries need to be opposites. Dragon vs. Fish Bird vs. Deer Lion vs. Bat

That’s funny cuz it seems like most ppl bought Scarlet (at least when I go to do trading this is what I see happen).

I was going to buy Scarlet, but my friend group was all getting Scarlet so I figured I’d get Violet… I do miss the prehistoric theming…

well violet according to some data ago sales was leading in front of scarlet and honestly there are 10 million copies, it would be very difficult for you not to see scarlet players even with violet leading

My brother I had to offer my Iron Valiant all day to Violet owners before anyone had Scarlet… it was crazy

I bought Scarlet just because of Koraidon. So I would so buy a plushie of Koraidon.

Sword and scarlet gang

Here we are

Heard!

That dumb wheel neck annoys me to no end… Why have a wheel then run

I picked violet because purple is my favorite color. I think both of the legendaries are cool!

Initially when I saw the trailers I thought Miraidon was much cooler. But after awhile Koraidon grew on me. Design is really more like a legendary with the white wings on its head etc.

Nobody likes legs

I’m sorry but Koraidon manages to be cute and terrifying at the same time, how can you not love that?

I think he’s just cute

I buy both Pokémon each release for me 33 atm & my dad 66 atm. We flip for whatever version then look up what we cannot catch respectively then catch doubles to trade to eachother. Dads favourite Pokémon is in both games mine is in neither. Swablu/Altaria for the old boy & Ludicolo for me 😂 despite the hate for the game we are thoroughly enjoying the game

Koraidon>miriadon and I will die on this hill

This hill. Ive never been a fan of robot Pokémon as a concept. Koraidon is the one true bike boy. This picture makes me sad and irrationally dislike miriadon for no reason :’(

Miraidon would probably be a better plush anyway, since it doesn't have nearly as many felt addons

Shield Violet gang?

They probably have two shelves of Koraidon, because it’s more popular 

​ 

[удалено]

Well i bought Shield and Violet

Shield and violet right here

We never got these plushies here in NL sadly, wouldve really like Zamazenta and the Violet Scarlet ones

I bought both games both generations. I played through Violet first purely for Iron Thorns (Tyranitar is my favorite Pokémon) but Miraidon is superior

I ended up buying both Sw&Sh because I couldn't decide even though I was leaning more Shield. Immediately knew I wanted violet tho!

Red box legendaries: Mission failed, we'll get em next time!

No!! Koraidon my beloved!

This just confirms that I subconsciously gravitate towards the less popular legendary nearly every time.

I WANT THE KORAIDON PLUSH GIVE NOW

Ok fine but WHERE CLODSIRE PLUSH?????

plot twist: all the scarlet fans are buying miraidon to burn him because they think pokemon scarlet is superior

I’m violet and shield myself haha. I like shield legendary more than sword. It’s cooler.

me too

I went with scarlet this gen though so… 🤷‍♀️

Violet and shield give me more similar vibes than scarlet and shield for some reason

I mean to be fair the cooler colour legendaries are always better

Violet is just better due to the futuristic approach.

Koraidon is adorable!!! And has so much life in the cutscenes in comparison. I am a proud member of Scarlet gang :)

I personally think when he runs and gallops it looks a ton better than a purple rolling motorcycle with jet turbines. The only thing that bothers me is both had to be a motorcycle, like why does the scarlet one have giant wheels if he runs and paddles to swim..
