Moved and had a lot of real life things going on, that kept me from playing most any game. Finally got around to getting Moon.
Absolutely loving it. Decently challenging without looking up any spoilers, my son is playing Sun and has found it pretty hard but fun. Ended up with a really big fighting weakness, A-Rattata, A-Meowth, Magnemite, and A-Diglett. So the first Kuahna absolutely wrecked me.
My one and only complaint is the starters. I've always found at least one starter I like, and I like Litten but... that third evolution. No thank you.

Made a random Showdown name and got up to 1400 in random battles. Was pretty fun, but I had the single greatest play I've ever made I think.
My Gorebyss vs my Opponents Mewtwo Y to start.
Just drop a prayer on substitute. He uses something and misses. I shellsmash he destroys my sub. Baton Pass to Metagross, promptly go Mega with a Shell Smash stat boost and sweep everything.
Gonna be honest, I haven't played SuMo since January. I just got bored of it after grinding the battle tree for so long. Haven't even transferred in my pokemon from gen 6. What are you guys doing these days that keeps you playing? Shiny hunting?
Pokémon games lack casual longevity. After you beat the game, only thing you can really do is (competive) PvP, and that's a saltmine.
Well locally a hobby shop started a weekly pokemon battle in addition to their friday night magic and pokemon tcg night. Compete and you get cards for the pokemon tcg, and my son has had a blast doing it so I've been helping him breed and just play SuMo in general since I'm still new to this generation. This past week was a monotype round robin tournament. He drew bug which worked for us since we had plenty available from Gen 6. He didn't win but went 4-3 losing to normal mono, flying mono and rock mono. He beat Poison, Fire (arachnid put in work), Electric and Ghost.
why would i keep playing pokemon when i havent finished breath of the wild.
I finished my living dex for gen 7 theres no point in playing until stars comes out

Nintendo 2DS XL
A new model of Nintendo 2DS has been announced by Nintendo. This model is the New Nintendo 2DS XL and will release in Japan on July 13th, Australia on June 15th and Europe & North America on July 28th. This device is the same size as a Nintendo 3DS XL but comes at a cheaper price, lacking the stereoscopic 3DS feature of the Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS models, but also includes amiibo functionality, stronger processor and the right stick that you can find in the New Nintendo 3DS models. It'll retail for 14,980¥ and $149.99 upon release.
Not all too sure what to think of this, what about you guys?

Just to follow up, got plenty spares HA Dratini and HA Eevee all in love balls and carefull eevee in the luxury ball (for umbreaon) if anyone would want some.
That really depends if they plan to replace 3DS/2DS after all or not. They claimed several times that switch isn't a replacement for their handheld line. I know that doesn't have to mean much but considering they're gonna release the new 2DS xl might confirm that.
For me it's a good step, finally a reason why to get 2DS. The old one wasn't bad but the design was just meh and the display felt really small in compare to 3DS. Plus at least for me it wasn't that comfortable to play with either. So thumbs up for the new one, especially if they put IPS panels into them like they did with N3DSXL.
3DS is ancient machine at this point. Sure it has huge library of games, but the hardware is weak and outdated. Nintendo should really be looking at the next step for their handheld market. Releasing smaller Switch with controllers fixed to the machine would be perfect fit to fully replace 3DS line.
I got SuMo as a self Christmas present, beat it in a week or so, and have barely touched it except to update my living dex with Alola Pokemon.
I'm not sure what it was but it just didn't hold my attention. Every other Pokemon game prior has kept me sucked in for countless hours after, whether it be ranked battles, collecting, post game, or even Showdown. But this gen I just can't find myself giving a fuck. Even the normal game play through just felt like a slogging my way through at times.
I was impressed by the new Pokemon, the characters being likable, and the heavier RPG vibe but still never felt that attachment or willingness to continue playing once I was done.
Simpsons EP 600 was hilarious.

I do agree. And hopefully they're already working on a replacement, though I doubt we'll see it this or next year. I thought you meant the platform was dead. Truth to be said depends how much improved it can be. Sure, they could put better HW inside, full HD display and what not. However then they'll face a problem all mobile devices have these days - batter life. Better HW will have bigger energy consumption and the battery will last less. Just look at switch. Or mobiles. And I'm not sure if having better handheld with battery life of 2 hrs would be a win.
