I think the only starter Pokémon I've ever used, that's not fire type, was Treecko 💭

Pokémon Champions monetization is weird. It has the typical F2P thing where you start out with lots of currency and items, but then it slows to a crawl. The weird thing is that this is true even if you pay.
After 15 hours playing (supposedly), I completed the entire battle pass and got 50 Pokémon, but now it seems like I’ll only be able to get a few Pokémon per week even if I log in and play every day.
I guess it’ll improve in a month when the next battle pass comes out.
Not sure how I feel..."The goal is thousands of devices operating on one coordinate framework in an electronic-warfare-heavy environment."
Pokémon Go Scans Quietly Trained the Navigation Tech Now Headed Into Military Drones

Niantic Spatial says Pokémon Go data is "not part of" its deal with spatial AI company Vantor, after concerns that game data could be used for military drones (Kenneth Shepard/Kotaku)

Wild to imagine scanning Pokestops in Pokemon GO will make drones more efficient at attacking your city.
Has Black Mirror done an episode where they deploy GPS jamming against attacking drones but it falls back to spatial data built from the hero's own Pokescans to continue pursuit?

This must be the “Sir Isaac, the Eagle has landed” moment for Newton’s grave, but for Foucault.

Meine Güte, was war das Rock den Acker für ein Abriss! Und on top haben wir unsere eigene Pokémon Karte bekommen. Wie cute ist das eigentlich? #darkk
"Hyper-monetization of everything is going to destroy capitalism" through "scalpers, resellers & people who are only in it to make money off of other people's nostalgia & love."
Today's hoarding & flipping of Legos & Pokémon cards... are no different from what Boomers did with houses.

I do like Pokémon Champions' rank system where you can rank up but not down (at least for the ranks I'm in).
For each rank, you gain a point for winning and lose a point for losing, and you have to get to a certain number of points to rank up (4 points starting out, I think it's up to 5 for me now).
Suppose it's 5. Then if you have a 75% chance to win each game, it'll take 9 games to rank up on average; 50% => 30 games; 25% => 716 games.
So you do…
Looks like Pokémon Champions removed Metronome from the game. lol.

I've often wondered why games like Pokémon Go don't compose databases of captured data to e.g. beat the pants off of Google Streetview in both cost (volunteer cameras!) and quality, pr…
