I'm back in Kalos!

Back in the Pokesaddle!

I learned one thing over the past year - don't throw away something you know could be fun in the future if it's not fun now... especially if you aren't getting a good deal for it.

I stupidly traded in my Nintendo 3DS I got as a birthday present years ago just because I thought I could get some money for Playstation games. I was wrong, I got only $20 for it because of a damaged control stick. :(

And I got rid of all my Pokemon games, but luckily for me the Nintendo 2DS(which is just a 3DS stripped of its 3D technology) was on sale and I managed to save up enough to buy it on sale(for $79.99) thanks to some money I had saved from dog-sitting. Then I traded in all of my old 3rd-generation Pokemon games and got $80 for it in credit... so I got a new copy of Pokemon Y.

Why is this important?

I NEVER MISS A POKEMON DEBUT!

Yep, the next generation of Pokemon, Pokemon Sun and Moon, is coming out this holiday season.

And so, to celebrate my return to Pokemon at long last, I am doing a Psychic-type monotype run through the game using Delphox, Gardevoir, and Malamar as my top battlers with Medicham and others close behind. (I intend to get a Staryu and Exeggute to fill out the team with a Sigilyph to help with the Flying.) I also caught my first Shiny(a Shiny Drifloon) and got an event Manaphy(which is max Level so it's pretty much a DIY project, but I don't intend to use it on my team for the main story) so I am pretty happy. :)

Before you say a word: No, that doesn't mean I've stopped trophy hunting. Indeed, I'm working on Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep Final Mix right now. (What a mouthful!)
