I just got pointed it out to me, but Porygon's colors match the original Switch's base Joy Con colors and the mass outbreaks end around the same time places in Europe are getting their Switch 2s.

Have to wonder if a mass outbreak of Porygon 2 will begin on Thursday.

It's kinda ridiculous how much better it looks. It makes me feel cheated and I actually enjoyed the game.

Even ignoring the lag, the spawn distance is clearly much higher now. Were they targeting the Switch 2 this whole time?

This is my first time ever hearing Joe speak. I didn't even know he was British.

So it looks like we're getting Porygon 2 as our next Unrivaled raid instead of Hydreigon. It will have the Normal Tera type, but I expect Fighting types to have a hard time since Porygon 2 can learn Psychic moves.

Also, the next Mass Outbreak will also be Porygon 2, with an increased shiny chance.

Already caught it, and it does have Psychic along with Tri Attack and Boltbeam.

A consequence of 60 fps/more Pokemon on screen is that YOU CANNOT ESCAPE VELUZA!

I just caught Porygon 2 the Unrivaled solo. I did it with my Scrafty; I gave her the Stellar Tera type so Porygon 2 can't use Psychic after I Terastilize her, and I gave her a Covert Cloak to prevent status effects from Tri Attack.

I heard Koraidon actually does pretty well despite Porygon 2 packing Psychic, so I might give it a try tomorrow.

There's an event distribution active: N01SUPP0RTPTC24 for Juyoung Hong's Porygon 2. Ends on the 9th.

Its nice to visit Kitakami without the lag. Also, I'm not sure if they intentionally sped up the Terestallizing animation, or if its always just been a laggy thing. But its definitely much faster.

Really? We're just... Skipping Unova, Kalos (Kalos is more understandable, because they can do some events to tie into Legends Z), Alola, and Galars Psuedos?

[up]I think it's more of a reordering, since Hydreigon, Goodra, Kommo-o, and Dragapult have been announced as upcoming raids.
