Current Events > It's 2023 and I have an Alakazam

(+) Yeah! (+)

Kid me would have loved this. Almost never did trade evolutions

Trade evolutions. Kinda a pain!

Yah, I remember playing through r/b with just a Kadabra since I didn't have any friends who played Pokemon.

No friends irl dat played dem pokemons?

Trade pokemon used to basically be DLC since you had to buy a link cable

Or have a rich friend who had one. Fortunately, I have a brother, so we had two game boys. It was easy to talk our mom into getting the cable after that.

Stop going easy on them.
Fuck trade evolutions.
They're the worst.

Alakazam is literally my favorite pokemon of all time. Fuck Scarlet for not having it.

The Scarlet and Violet restrictions on what Pokemon you can bring over really suck tbh. So many classic Pokemon and legendaries unable to be used

It's one of the main reason why I'm loving the hell out of Infinite Fusions. All pokemon that evolve using some nonsense can evolve if you level them enough. You still prefer to evolve them at a lower level? Easy, use the Link Cable item or whatever item they normally require to do so.

I like the ROM hacks that make it easy to get trade evolution Pokmon. Using an item to make them evolve is so much easier.

Never heard of Infinite Fusions but I think Pokemon Legends is kinda awesome because you can actually 100% the Dex without trading. All the Pokemon are actually in the game. They made new ways of evolving for trade evolution pokemon

It's a fangame set during Gen 1. It has Kanto, Jotho (2 years before Gen 2) and Sevii Islands. You can randomize the entire game from spawns to trainers to gyms.
The main thing it does is in the title, fusions. You can create over 150k Pokemon using this gimmick and several thousand of them have custom made sprites with more coming each month.

I didn't plan on watching the whole video but that was pretty cool

It truly is. That vid is what led me to download the game. You should check it out if you're in the mood for a Pokemon game with a gimmick.
If any of you just want to check out the fusions without needing to play the game, you can use the online calculator. Try fusing Pokemon with themselves for a badass version. Fusing Duskull or Honedge and its evolutions with any Pokemon usually gives something cool.
