My Pokemon - Pokemon Sun/Moon

Here's a collection of some pokemon from Pokemon Sun/Moon that I have.

Pokemon Sun is probably my least favorite. The constant cut scenes bothered me, and it took way too long to even get to the point where you choose your starter! (I think I recall it being about two hours in? Or something ridiculous like that.) And there weren't a lot of new pokemon that I really liked, other than the rockruff line and the toucannon and maybe a couple other 'mons I've forgotten about. I didn't like most of the regional variants either. There were a few good things though. Like how they got rid of hidden moves. No longer do I always need a bird pokemon on my team to be able to get around! No more HM slaves! And instead of a bike, you could ride a tauros which would go even faster than a bike and good for hatching eggs. Those were my favorite things about this one. And thank God it became the norm! For me, it's too hard to go back to the older games because of it. I also appreciated that they tried something different with replacing the gyms with... whatever it was they were replaced with. I don't remember. I do remember the Pelago though. That was kinda neato. But the best thing about Sun, was that they finally made it so you could ask for any pokemon in the GTS, no longer restricting you to pokemon you've only seen in the game.

All in all, I put about 120 hours into this one. The least amount of hours I've put into a mainline pokemon game until Brilliant Diamond.

This inceneroar was my starter. I kept it as a torracat for the longest time, and then apparently took it off my team, because it doesn't have the alolan champion ribbon. Which baffles me. But I guess this was the first game where I didn't end with my starter. (Possibly even my only game.)

This alolan ninetails is an Alolan champion though.

I caught this absol for the purpose of being my false swiper to easily catch other pokemon. I named it H.Caufield after Holden Caufield because he's the CATCHER in the rye. Harr harr. It's an alolan champion.

Despite not actually needing a bird pokemon for a change, this toucannon is a champion. Probably because it's one of my favorites in this gen.

I named this lycanroc Tomoko after the character from Watamote, because it kinda looks like her. It's an Alolan champion.

Alolan champion Solgaleo.

I could not figure out what pokemon, if not my starter, was my sixth champion. After having to google how to check your hall of famers in Sun, I find out this Slowbro is champion! A fuckin', Slowbro instead of my actual starter! Mystery solved, at least. Bigger mystery is why.

I named this Alolan dugtrio Fabio because that's what Fabio would look like if he was a dugtrio imo.

I named this lycanroc Knuckles because that's who he reminds me of.

I got this golisopod in a GTS trade on Pokemon Sun. The OT lovingly named it faaaartssszs.

I got this German espeon in a GTS trade on Home. It's name translates to ice magic. I assume the OT was expecting their eevee to evolve into a glaceon but got an espeon instead and just wanted to get rid of it. I find this amusing.

I named this lillipup Kevin after Seth Rollin's yorkie. I think.

I named this Miltank McDonald's after McDonald's. Tasty.

A shellder I got in a trade named PeanutButter.

Torkoal I named after Flannery because I saw an episode of pokemon she was in and she had a torkoal that would be all, "toorrrkooooaaal!" and that's all I think about whenever I see a torkoal.

A roggenrolla I named Bunghole because that's what it looks like.

I stumbled upon this shiny sandile in Pokemon Sun. I remember it being during my lunch break at work.

I caught this shiny lycanroc in Pokemon Sun using the chaining method.

Shiny alolan ninetails that I think I came across randomly but I'm not entirely sure on that.

I don't remember how I caught this shiny trumbeak. Though it was probably a pikipek when I caught it.

I purposely hunted for this delibird to sneak onto my boyfriend's Moon save on Christmas, then forgot all about it. Oops.
