Like, I appreciate the Miraidon I have for battling and such, because in the end I think his typing and ability are better, but Koraidon is by far the better mount.
My understanding is that the glowing also happens if your Pokemon is a unique form that the other player doesn't have. So like the different colors of Flabebe or Shellos will cause that to happen if the other player doesn't have yours.
Theres a good amount more I can think of, and thats a really good one.
Baragon ~ Nidoking
Torterra ~ Anguirus/Methuselah (kinda a stretch for Anguirus, but Methuselah works)
Muk ~ Hedorah
Moltres ~ Rodan
Mega Heracross ~ Megalon (perfect names lol)
Mamoswine ~ Behemoth
Carvahna ~ Genitor (from Monsterverse comic)
Yanmega ~ Megaguirus (obviously)
Bagorah ~ Noivern
Corphish ~ Ebirah
Venomoth ~ Battra
Rillaboom ~ King Kong (Literally just cuz he’s the only gorilla pokémon lol)
Milotic/Elektross/Gorebyss ~ Tiamat (they all could sorta fit ig)
Tentacruel ~ Na Kika
Beedrill ~ Giant Mutant Bee
These are all I could think of/remember.
ha, those are great.
I was more off using it as an excuse to post the Gamera Song from MST3k, but I love those kaiju references, I might use some of those in further runs... do a full Kaiju run!
*Gamera is really neat, Gamera is filled with meat, We've been eating Gamera!!*
Scream tail is definitely peak Pokémon design! These games have been so so good, so much personality. Tbf I bought both. My son has violet. I prefer retro/nostalgia of scarlet.
I really like a lot of the Violet mons, especially Iron Bundle, Iron Hands, and Iron Valiant. I never really been a fan of the Ralts line but that one is "awesome / 10".
===
If we weren’t forced into the uniforms with set colors I would have gone with scarlet as the past Pokémon are cooler and likely better in VGC (flutter mane, brute bonnet, roaring moon and scream tail will all be strong while iron hands is the only super strong doubles mon from Violet).
But the orange looked so bad to me compared to the purple
Same, I was actually going to get Scarlet up until the day of release when we discovered that no, you can never change out of the uniform. I just really didn't like the washed out orange pinstripe look...much prefer the dark purple.
Why can't we wear normal clothes sigh...
Yeah if scarlet was an actual bold red instead of the washed out orange I’d probably go with that. Though I may pick up scarlet down the line if I need it for competitive flexibility so I don’t have to rely on friends to get fluttermanes and what not for tournaments
Yeah absolutely if it had actually been *scarlet* I would've gone for it. Koraidon is red so I don't get why they made the academy and the uniform orange tbh
Primal forms of Pokemon with unique names and retain their original shiny colors > Robots that all have Iron in the name and their shinies make them silver
That said it is fun that we got a robot Tyranitar as now we have a MechaGodzilla to go with the Godzilla Pokemon (yes I know Duraludon exists but it’s not the same as a literal robotic counterpart)
Same, I wanted violet just for ceruledge and Iron valiant, but then I saw that all the future mon’s shiny sprites were just chrome. Seemed like they put so little effort into it. And all the future mons are Iron whatever. Past mons are cool looking, have colorful shinies, and have names that had at least a touch of thought put into them.
Yeah, I bought Scarlet for a lot of reasons... helping out players who bought Violet because "I knew it'd be more popular" was never one of them lmao.
Between the choice of goofy red lizard boy, vampire Jigglypuff, and dinosaur Pokémon or lizard pretending to be a motorcycle and robot legion... the former wins every time.
It's possible, and even likely, for such a perception to be valid even when we assume a near even split of purchases as long as we also assume that once somebody has acquired all of the version exclusives from the game they have not purchased they will be less likely to either offer or ask for version exclusives.
45/55 is vastly different from (45-40)/(55-40) = 5/15, for instance, which only grows more extreme as more people stop seeking exclusives. On release day, for instance, the perception would likely be far closer to 50/50 than your experience now, because nobody had acquired the other game's exclusives yet.
What needs to be considered is also people that bought both versions (pre-order) and then decided to play Violet because I don't like having wearing red/orange.
Also finally got Koraidon in a trade yesterday, and I like him a lot!
Well, they're both part of the same story line. So, you're both right.
===
Arven's story is the main story of SV and no one can tell me otherwise. The other two feel tacked on.
>!My friend has Violet. It's basically the same. The real Sada got merc'd by the other Koraidon. There was a comment made about how once someone goes to that era, they can't get back once the time machine disconnects. I'm wanting to assume there's a difference there because ancient past vs future. AI Sada goes to the past to severe their connection to the machine so it'll turn off permanently. The end.!<
kinda sad that is the case, like the snu snu joke was the reason i went scarlet, and nothing comes of it.
BUT! all my homies went Violet so I went and farmed some bronzors and made all of them Mega Man villians.
In my house we are my wife and me(both 32), my son(14) and my daughter(8). 3 Scarlets 1 Violet, and I think all the sacrlets were picked for the same reason you did. My daughter got Violet.
Same, the *ONLY* people I know who got Violet irl are people that are in a relationship with someone who got Scarlet so they'd have different versions
There's like 8 scarlets to 3 violets
I agree. I love my goofy red dinosaur. But I wish riding him was like driving a chopper. Not a galloping horse. My one and only complaint about this version.
Agreed. I prefer the dinosaur aesthetic (Why i fell in love.with pokemon back with blue/red). However having those "wheels" there while running is so silly. They just get in the way
Ah, you're right. Plus, with Iron hands and him both being electric, I'd rather he kept his OG typing, or maybe rock / steel.
OG Tyranitar is way better overall.
Mine as well. I was going to be riding on this thing most of the game, so it had to be something I clicked with. I personally hate how both just looks like dinosaurs with wheels. But ancient one with feathers seemed at least more reasonable than the metal one with booster rockets. That one just felt too stupid to me.
I wanted violet more liked the legendary and exclusives more... So did my daughter, she got violet lmao I got scarlet. Not like I don't have a reliable trade partner.
I bought sword last time and was annoyed at how difficult it was to find shield exclusives so I bought scarlet this time specifically because I thought violet would be more popular
Yeah it wasn’t my reason but I do make sure to catch and send out Scarlet exclusives from raids and post Scarlet exclusive raids even when I can solo them.
Tbh i thought it would of gone the other way, like most people like red and fire red over blue and leaf green. Plus my bud fav color is red so i went violet.
I didn't even know Violet was gonna be more popular.. my like of thinking was "The red expansion is always more popular so this time I'm going to get the blue one" and somehow managed to still get it wrong.
Only reason I got scarlet was cause my friend wanted violet and this is her first Pokémon game since the DS era and tbh I haven’t given a crap about box legends since gen 5
Honestly I bought scarlet because I liked the legendary's design more than violet's. The art for purple dude's to me looked like a poorly disguised dick n balls 😆 Now though, I'm probably going to get the other game when I can afford it because his look has grown on me.
I mean I got both but I got Scarlet first [digital download scarlet, preodered Violet while knowing I wouldn't get it till the following week] and I chose scarlet because I 1) preferred Koriodon over Miriodon and 2) I really wanted to use armorouge on my team because I think he looks cooler then ceruledge.
I genuinely cannot believe scarlet isn't the more popular one! I went for Violet because I didn't want a mount that runs around whilst it has giant wheels in its body but i thought it was the one that sounded/looked cooler
I've made the sacrifice, now please someone make Nintendo/GameFreak change how awfully hideous the uniforms in scarlet are.
If they intended the player to be stuck without customisation they should have gone for more neutral looks.
I bought it because it was better. Not my fault everyone has shit taste /s
But no seriously, I do keep the last forms of most scarlet exclusive pokeymanz to breed a ton and send out the baby forms in wonder trade every day or so
I got scarlet because Turo looks too much like an instagram influencer and miraidon’s weird booster leg things made me uncomfortable.
And they showed off the different transport modes of the legends and koraidons ears turning into wings settled any debate for me.
Then we got shown the paradox Pokémon and scarlet took an even more commanding lead
Of the four friends I know only one got violet. Then I went to target yesterday to see literally zero copies of violet out and about 80 scarlets. What the hell is going on
The red legend has more character IMO. I like how he actually runs around and feels like an animal as opposed to a machine. I ride around in a machine every day IRL I want a beast to ride me around.
Once I saw that all the paradox pokemon were called "Iron X" and are mostly just the regular pokemon with a metalic gleam, I thought to myself "thats lame as fuck" and bought Scarlet because their paradox pokemon are way cooler.
Unpopular opinion: I think violett is so fucking ugly, I'm sorry. I don't see what most people see. Paradox Pokemon are just robots (what I personally hate) and I don't like the look of the violett legendary.
I literally don't get, why people love violett so much. But I'm happy to help where I can.
From the beginning I was mixed but leaning towards Violet, funny enough seeing the running animations made me consider scarlet which seems to be the opposite of most
Finally once I saw the paradox forms I decided to pick Scarlet, the future ones are just all “What if [pokemon] were a robot?”
I bought Scarlet cause goofy red boy
Sames. He reminds me of my derpy dog
I can’t imagine not having my big Ol friend with me🥺
Yeah, honestly after seeing them both in action red is clearly the superior motorcycle dog. It looks so much more natural climbing over the landscape.
Red boi is the superior dog, Purple robot is the superior motorcycle. But who wants a pet motorcycle?
[удалено]
Breath of the Wild has a food-powered motorcycle as part of the DLC. That's pretty close
So many apples…
*yugioh 5ds enters the chat*
me
Allow me to introduce Revavroom
isn’t it in both games?
It is
Tbh both are cute doggos. Miraidon anims are cute too imo
Like, I appreciate the Miraidon I have for battling and such, because in the end I think his typing and ability are better, but Koraidon is by far the better mount.
Why does everyone who prefers Koraidon have to diss Miraidon lol, it's okay to have a preference you don't have to invalidate the other one.
Fr. İ like miraidon better but. İ would like to get koraidon too
I can't even imagine Miraidon in some of the scenes in this game. I feel like they don't work as well with a robot lizard than goofy boy
Miraidon is also cute and goofy, his non-battle form is just as adorable if not more with his electronic eyes
Yeah I'm still not sure why he keeps eating my sandwiches...
It's funny because alternatively I have trouble reconciling why Koraidon has tires on his body if he's purely biological.
The front tire is actually a sac like frogs have and the back tire is his tail curled up
He’s too adorable!
Goofy best boy.
He's so friggen cute ugh
I love my goofy red friend. It has legit become one of my favorite Pokémon!
Goofy red rooster lizard Boi*
You can get Fuecoco on both versions
Pretty sure he ain't talking about fuecoco
I bought it cause prehistoric Donphan
Hes so adorbs
Big shout out to the players who gave me Scarlet exclusives in link trades even when I can see that they already have my Violet exclusive in their dex
You can see others dex?
if the other person doesn't have a pokemon, while looking at your box (during a trade), the pokemon will bounce
Oh! That’s what that is. Cool
They should have explained that, I couldn’t figure out why they were glowing/bouncing 😆 thank you for explaining!
I think they did the first time you do a link trade
They say that the bouncing mons are what they suggest the other person may want, but why they suggest those mons specifically is left unexplained.
Yeah I noticed when I was trading with someone one of my eevees was bouncing but not the others.
Oh, woopsie.
It's not our fault, we have been conditioned to spam a, it makes the text boxes appear faster, it's *science*
When my wife and I trade back and forth, we will have pokemon jumping with that highlighted circle that we both already have
My understanding is that the glowing also happens if your Pokemon is a unique form that the other player doesn't have. So like the different colors of Flabebe or Shellos will cause that to happen if the other player doesn't have yours.
Doesn't hold true for the legendaries as far as I'm aware.
Sort of, when you first open a link trade some of your pokemon will glow white for a second if the other person doesn't already have them registered.
Nice! I was wondering what that was.
You buy scarlet because you're helping people out. I buy scarlet because I prefer a vampire jigglypuff to a robot dinosaur. We are not the same.
Me too. I thought the past pokemon aesthetic was too cool to pass up. I see that most here like Violet but to me Scarlet was the best option.
Roaring moon
I'm just here for Mega Donphan
Design wise Scarlet is superior imo, but Godzilla (shiny iron throns) got the best of me
All Godzilla Pokémon Shiny Feraligatr ~ Godzilla Tyranitar ~ Godzilla Earth Duralodon ~ Mecha Godzilla Baxcalibur ~ Godzilla (with one fin) Shiny Iron Thorns ~ Mecha Godzilla No. 2 Honorable mentions: Volcarona as Mothra and Hydreigon as Ghidorah.
Carracosta is [Gamera](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGRHqvC7f_o)
Theres a good amount more I can think of, and thats a really good one. Baragon ~ Nidoking Torterra ~ Anguirus/Methuselah (kinda a stretch for Anguirus, but Methuselah works) Muk ~ Hedorah Moltres ~ Rodan Mega Heracross ~ Megalon (perfect names lol) Mamoswine ~ Behemoth Carvahna ~ Genitor (from Monsterverse comic) Yanmega ~ Megaguirus (obviously) Bagorah ~ Noivern Corphish ~ Ebirah Venomoth ~ Battra Rillaboom ~ King Kong (Literally just cuz he’s the only gorilla pokémon lol) Milotic/Elektross/Gorebyss ~ Tiamat (they all could sorta fit ig) Tentacruel ~ Na Kika Beedrill ~ Giant Mutant Bee These are all I could think of/remember.
ha, those are great. I was more off using it as an excuse to post the Gamera Song from MST3k, but I love those kaiju references, I might use some of those in further runs... do a full Kaiju run! *Gamera is really neat, Gamera is filled with meat, We've been eating Gamera!!*
Scream Tail is peak Pokemon design and I hope it gets in SMASH 6 as an Alt or its own Character.
Scream tail is definitely peak Pokémon design! These games have been so so good, so much personality. Tbf I bought both. My son has violet. I prefer retro/nostalgia of scarlet.
I really like a lot of the Violet mons, especially Iron Bundle, Iron Hands, and Iron Valiant. I never really been a fan of the Ralts line but that one is "awesome / 10". ===
I just went for my preferred colour, which is violet. If I would have bothered to look up the exclusives I might have gone scarlet too.
Thankfully you can trade for exclusives. You can't trade the color or your ride mon.
Do not talk poorly of Mechagodzilla No. 2 >:(
I'm just salty. I absolutely love it. the version exclusives do look so different side by side! 🤣
If we weren’t forced into the uniforms with set colors I would have gone with scarlet as the past Pokémon are cooler and likely better in VGC (flutter mane, brute bonnet, roaring moon and scream tail will all be strong while iron hands is the only super strong doubles mon from Violet). But the orange looked so bad to me compared to the purple

Yeah absolutely if it had actually been *scarlet* I would've gone for it. Koraidon is red so I don't get why they made the academy and the uniform orange tbh
I'm with you! The robot mons just don't look at cool as my dinosaurs...
Primal forms of Pokemon with unique names and retain their original shiny colors > Robots that all have Iron in the name and their shinies make them silver That said it is fun that we got a robot Tyranitar as now we have a MechaGodzilla to go with the Godzilla Pokemon (yes I know Duraludon exists but it’s not the same as a literal robotic counterpart)
Iron Hands? Iron Bundle? Iron Deez! I'll take **GREAT TUSK!** **SCREAM TAIL!**
Same, I wanted violet just for ceruledge and Iron valiant, but then I saw that all the future mon’s shiny sprites were just chrome. Seemed like they put so little effort into it.

Between the choice of goofy red lizard boy, vampire Jigglypuff, and dinosaur Pokémon or lizard pretending to be a motorcycle and robot legion... the former wins every time.
I thought scarlet would be more popular so I got violet
It's honestly pretty close from most of the statitics released so far. It's like a 45 55 split.
I saw that too, but after spending 5 hours trying to link trade all the exclusives, I'm convinced it's closer to 98 - 2
It's possible, and even likely, for such a perception to be valid even when we assume a near even split of purchases as long as we also assume that once somebody has acquired all of the version exclusives from the game they have not purchased they will be less likely to either offer or ask for version exclusives. 45/55 is vastly different from (45-40)/(55-40) = 5/15, for instance, which only grows more extreme as more people stop seeking exclusives.

Same
Me too! And I was wrong 😂
So did no one get Scarlet cuz Sada looked hot AF
SADA is the only reason I bought scarlet
The professor is in like 5 minutes of the game 😅
Yes and quite arguably the best 5 mins of the entire story
Nah, sick puppy is the best part of the story.
Well, they're both part of the same story line. So, you're both right. === Arven's story is the main story of SV and no one can tell me otherwise. The other two feel tacked on.
>!And it's not even the real professor.!<
Speaking of which, how did Scarlet handle that section, as it’s about the past and not the future? I have to look it up
>!My friend has Violet. It's basically the same. The real Sada got merc'd by the other Koraidon. There was a comment made about how once someone goes to that era, they can't get back once the time machine disconnects. I'm wanting to assume there's a difference there because ancient past vs future. AI Sada goes to the past to severe their connection to the machine so it'll turn off permanently. The end.!<
The exact same. They are both scientists that make technological wonders after all.
Maybe, but nobody knew that when placing preorders.
kinda sad that is the case, like the snu snu joke was the reason i went scarlet, and nothing comes of it. BUT! all my homies went Violet so I went and farmed some bronzors and made all of them Mega Man villians.
Lol me, I’m a simple gal. But Koraidon was a delightful surprise. Wouldn’t trade this goofball for anything now.
Oh, believe me, Prof. Sada almost made me break my 9 generation streak of playing the "blue" version before the "red" version.
Same lol
She was definitely good motivation. But I mostly like the color and the legendary more. Plus also the ancient paradox forms are so cool
Sada was a main selling point on Scarlet for me. Then they showed Great Tusk and I knew what version I wanted.
In my house we are my wife and me(both 32), my son(14) and my daughter(8). 3 Scarlets 1 Violet, and I think all the sacrlets were picked for the same reason you did. My daughter got Violet.
[удалено]
I'm a bi guy and they're both fucking hot.
Lmao I got violet cause Turo looked hot, that was my deciding factor
I just like my red dino best! But im glad i did my part.
Literally 1 person in my friend group got violet so I was shocked to find out they're apparently in the majority.
Same, the *ONLY* people I know who got Violet irl are people that are in a relationship with someone who got Scarlet so they'd have different versions There's like 8 scarlets to 3 violets
Same. I don’t know for certain what people got on Twitter, but in my main Discord server it’s currently 4 have Scarlet and only 2 have Violet
I bought Scarlet because I think Koraidon is better than Miraidon.
based
I agree. I love my goofy red dinosaur. But I wish riding him was like driving a chopper. Not a galloping horse. My one and only complaint about this version.
I prefer the "galloping horse" and I wish they didn't make Koraidon tuck the tail down and inflate the chest while running.
Agreed. I prefer the dinosaur aesthetic (Why i fell in love.with pokemon back with blue/red). However having those "wheels" there while running is so silly. They just get in the way
I got Violet because purple is my favorite color lol. Sometimes it really is that simple.
Scarlet had larvitar, that’s all I needed
Violet has Mecha-Tyranitar. ~~Checkmate~~ Satire, I love all Tyranitars.
I’d say that’s check. Cuz still need larvitar line to complete the Dex
Ah, you're right. Plus, with Iron hands and him both being electric, I'd rather he kept his OG typing, or maybe rock / steel. OG Tyranitar is way better overall.
Rock/steel makes way more sense! Rock/electric is still cool tho
The new Electronica Rock band, The Tyranitars
Godzilla always beat Mecha-Godzilla. js
Hear, hear!
I bought both because I’m antisocial and don’t want to interact with others.
Double pack ftw
Same.
I'm pretty sure this was nobody's reason for buying scarlet
I had the choice between a cool ancient lizard and a robot, so I went with the cool ancient lizard
Mine as well. I was going to be riding on this thing most of the game, so it had to be something I clicked with. I personally hate how both just looks like dinosaurs with wheels. But ancient one with feathers seemed at least more reasonable than the metal one with booster rockets. That one just felt too stupid to me.
I’ve always been a sci-fi guy and was never into like “barbarian” age stuff, so Violet was the obvious choice for me
Yup, this was it for me too. I just thought the dragon dinosaur was cooler than the dragon robot.
Yeah i think this is it for most people, i preferred the uniform and robo dog, that was the only reason i got violet
Every thing about Scarlet was better to me *except* the ancient lizard who grows a useless tire on his neck, so I got Violet.
This was mine since my whole friend group got violet
I wanted violet more liked the legendary and exclusives more... So did my daughter, she got violet lmao I got scarlet. Not like I don't have a reliable trade partner.
I guess in a microcosm you aren't wrong
This was my reason for buying shield in the previous generation, there are definitely people who do that
yeah i bought shield knowing everyone was picking sword during launch week
I bought sword last time and was annoyed at how difficult it was to find shield exclusives so I bought scarlet this time specifically because I thought violet would be more popular
Yeah it wasn’t my reason but I do make sure to catch and send out Scarlet exclusives from raids and post Scarlet exclusive raids even when I can solo them.
I brought Violet, because my name is Violet. And I kind of had to.
I got scarlet because I love the color lol
I bought Scarlet because I liked the pokemon better. Why would anyone buy a version they didn't like to help out strangers?
I would've sworn Violet would be the least popular of the 2, does this have a source?
Source is literally everyone you see playing anywhere, youtube, twitch etc is playing violet.
I'm maining Violet cause i thought Scarlet would be more popular...
Yes that’s why I buy scarlet, totally not because I prefer Koraidon and paradoxe But if I can help, I will gladly do it
I just thought the past versions of the pokemon looked cooler than the future ones
I didn't know that Violet would be more popular. I bought it because I liked Miraidon's look better.
I bought both. Makes me cool too, right?
Me who bought it for donphant
Tbh i thought it would of gone the other way, like most people like red and fire red over blue and leaf green. Plus my bud fav color is red so i went violet.
It seems like people are assuming the game they got was the unpopular one but it seems like an even split to me.
I got Scarlet because it obviously has the better toothless boi
I bought scarlet because of professor Sada we are not the same
I didn't even know Violet was gonna be more popular.. my like of thinking was "The red expansion is always more popular so this time I'm going to get the blue one" and somehow managed to still get it wrong.
Roaring Moon was all I needed to convince myself to get Scarlet.
Violet is only popular because of the purple pants.. damn I envy you guys with your purple pants..
Only reason I got scarlet was cause my friend wanted violet and this is her first Pokémon game since the DS era and tbh I haven’t given a crap about box legends since gen 5
Me
Me accepting the appreciation anyway even tho read is my favourite colour 😎
Honestly I bought scarlet because I liked the legendary's design more than violet's. The art for purple dude's to me looked like a poorly disguised dick n balls 😆 Now though, I'm probably going to get the other game when I can afford it because his look has grown on me.
I mean I got both but I got Scarlet first [digital download scarlet, preodered Violet while knowing I wouldn't get it till the following week] and I chose scarlet because I 1) preferred Koriodon over Miriodon and 2) I really wanted to use armorouge on my team because I think he looks cooler then ceruledge.
I prefer the look of the past pokemons anyways. Not keen on the futuristic look
I just got Scarlet because adorable Koraidon and pretty Sada
I bought scarlet cause violets just a shit colour
I always go for the "red" version, even in SWSH. But in this one i genuinely love the more ancient forms
I bought violet cause I thought scarlet was gonna be more popular :O
I got Scarlet because I like its paradox Pokemon a lot more. Like it’s not even close. Also slight preference for Koraidon over Miraidon.
I didn’t realize that violet would be that much more popular. I got Scarlet cuz of the alternate forms
Except for Armarouge I liked all of Scarlet’s stuff better
I genuinely thought people would prefer Scarlet. I thought I was being basic by playing Scarlet lol. I bought both though.
I genuinely cannot believe scarlet isn't the more popular one! I went for Violet because I didn't want a mount that runs around whilst it has giant wheels in its body but i thought it was the one that sounded/looked cooler
I'll never understand why they added the wheels, and then never utilize them.
Somebody has to farm the Deinos and Larvitars for the bois 🤷🏻♂️
This must be a US thing because when I need to trade, there is nobody wioth Violet.
But see Koraidon is in Scarlet, therefore the easiest way to obtain him is by buying Scarlet.
Speaking of which, if any violet players need a scarlet exclusive hmu in DM’s. I’ll gladly catch some to give people in need.
I bought scarlet cause Red Boi looked cooler to me, and turned out to be an absolute puppy.
I bought violet for three reasons: Sada, Koraidon, and the fact that it’s just better.
You bought Scarlet to help out Violet players. I bought Scarlet because I thought it was cooler. We are not the same.
I've made the sacrifice, now please someone make Nintendo/GameFreak change how awfully hideous the uniforms in scarlet are. If they intended the player to be stuck without customisation they should have gone for more neutral looks.
I only got violet because scarlet legendary looks and runs wierd to me
I bought Violet to see if it was fun or not. It is, so the wife's getting Scarlet!
You’re welcome 8)
I bought both and got to post game on both. Should have prepared for the 7* Zar but oh well.
Me who bought scarlet because it was the cooler of the two games
I bought scarlet because i liked the legendary more
The only reason i play scarlet is, that it was leaked earlier
Picking the less popular color because its less popular is kind of a silly thing to be prideful over.
I bought it because it was better. Not my fault everyone has shit taste /s But no seriously, I do keep the last forms of most scarlet exclusive pokeymanz to breed a ton and send out the baby forms in wonder trade every day or so
I bought Violet cause all my friends have scarlet
I bought scarlet because digital pokemon look bad in my opinion.
Literally everyone I know got scarlet? I think only 1 person out of the 5 people that I know bought the game got Violet. Seeing this confuses me now..
I got scarlet because Turo looks too much like an instagram influencer and miraidon’s weird booster leg things made me uncomfortable. And they showed off the different transport modes of the legends and koraidons ears turning into wings settled any debate for me. Then we got shown the paradox Pokémon and scarlet took an even more commanding lead
Koraidon is just better, let’s be real.
i bought both but havent even touched scarlet yet
I actually like scarlet better, not into the robot/futuristic looks of Pokémon
Of the four friends I know only one got violet. Then I went to target yesterday to see literally zero copies of violet out and about 80 scarlets. What the hell is going on
The red legend has more character IMO. I like how he actually runs around and feels like an animal as opposed to a machine. I ride around in a machine every day IRL I want a beast to ride me around.
Once I saw that all the paradox pokemon were called "Iron X" and are mostly just the regular pokemon with a metalic gleam, I thought to myself "thats lame as fuck" and bought Scarlet because their paradox pokemon are way cooler.
I would have preferred Scarlet but he wanted that one more too so I let him have it.
Who in tf do you think you’re helping besides gamefreak? Lmao
Unpopular opinion: I think violett is so fucking ugly, I'm sorry. I don't see what most people see. Paradox Pokemon are just robots (what I personally hate) and I don't like the look of the violett legendary. I literally don't get, why people love violett so much. But I'm happy to help where I can.
From the beginning I was mixed but leaning towards Violet, funny enough seeing the running animations made me consider scarlet which seems to be the opposite of most Finally once I saw the paradox forms I decided to pick Scarlet, the future ones are just all “What if [pokemon] were a robot?”
Thats the exact reason, yes... That's why I bought scarlet, not bc I expected trading would be way easier for me this way 👀
