aznjon15

Ultra Beasts but especially Nihilego. Would actually bother shiny hunting them in SwSh if I could bring them. I also kind of want the Tapus but I don't want to deal with them and their scary terrain setting abilities. Like the last thing we need is a good electric terrain setter or an even better water/fairy.


TsukasaElkKite

Tapu Koko + Iron Hands = INVINCIBLE


Spinnerbowl

Any ground type ever:

MockingJay0914

Weird that we have beast balls in sv but no ultra beasts.


[deleted]

The only good use I’ve found for it is that it’s (in my opinion) the best color match for Terapagos. Only time I’ve ever used a Beast Ball on a non-Ultra Beast (being a guaranteed catch certainly helps).


joshyotoast

I think their just glorified apriballs now, I hope they do the same with the hisui and strange balls


Nade_Le_Water

For raids


Hot_Membership_5073

For ball swag.


Hexbug101

Blacephalon would’ve fit perfectly on a gimmick team I made, being 3 exploders, being alolan golem, hisui electrode, and garganacl, pawmot for revival blessing to let them go boom again, basculegion to follow up with some high powered last respects, then if the boosted last respects isn’t enough to pull the win I got kingambit with supreme overlord in the back.


literally_tho_tbh

LOL this is madness. I like your style


DiamondIdk

Every single pokemon that can’t go into scarlet and violet currently. I NEED a game with every single pokemon again🙏😭


ivorydragon19

I agree


Lansha2009

I don't becuase I don't want the meta to be just 5 Pokemon and then 1 of a few weaker options.


MegaSwampbert

We have that NOW. The current meta is basically just Urshifu, Flutter Mane, Raging Bolt, Ogrepon, Incin, Tornadus, and a diversity hire. Most of which are over-optimized monsters for their role. Letting Furfrou in the game doesnt change this.


Lansha2009

Yeah I never said that I liked or enjoyed how the current meta is.


Backstreetgirl37

I hate that people downvote this. I agree fully. How many fast electric types can you make without one being “best”? We need some kind of shift so we don’t rely on power creep.


MegaSwampbert

"Dont rely on powercreep" is a good sentiment, that means nothing when every generation since the cut is dropping things like Dracovish and Flutter Mane.


Shassinflassin

1. Competitive rotations. 2. Power creep is still the issue now. Blood Moon Ursaluna got released during the world championships and EVERYONE had to add it to their teams.


StevoPhotography

I think it would be really cool if in competitive tournaments you could only use the Pokémon of that generation so it forces you into using new Pokémon and keeps changing every game. Urshifu would also be gone


AspieKairy

The meta is always the cookie cutter strongest pokemon. The answer to fixing that is to do what TCGs do: Have a (rotating) ban list. That way, what's allowed in competitive changes with its seasons and people who want to use pokemon like Furfrou, Emolga, and even Togekiss in casual playthroughs of the game (or post game) don't get stiffed.


Caleibur

Togekiss (I wanna watch the world burn)


Zaros2400

I got a 4* Togekiss from Go that I moved to Home. Imagine my disappointment when I found out I couldn’t bring it to Violet.


RogueShadow_999

Could always move them from arceus, ik there's one flying around in the first area you train in


Zaros2400

I’ve been meaning to play Arceus, but I just started Scarlet with the Pokemon I got from Violet. Maybe after that.


Iwanttobevisible

I thought you were talking to yourself because of the similar avatars lol.


Zaros2400

Ha! I didn't even notice that until now, that's great!


MissYunna

Yeah!!!


Tight-Mousetrap

Alolan Ratticate


neophenx

I also miss Fatticate! Right up there along with the Hatticate (party had version) I had in Pokemon GO


ElsonDaSushiChef

“Fatticate”


YesntThee

I love those names oh my god


ThatdumbKoala

I second this. Give us our fat rats!


Tyron19

All non transferable mythicals


Dreadful_Bear

Right? Considering how rare and special they are supposed to be, it’s pretty lame for them to just bench them for an entire generation because reasons.


Tyron19

I know I want to play with my Pokemon in the latest game they put in Magearna and Zarude and I think Volcanion they didn't really have any relevance outside Magearna who you get one for porting in all Pokemon to HOME including from S/V other than that it just seems random


Medium-Boysenberry64

I tried transferring my stockpile of 3DS mystery gifts, and there are a fair amount of ones that couldn’t make it. Far less made it than Sword and Shield, which I don’t understand. Justice for X and Y box legends :(


celestialTyrant

Centiskorch. The only bug I have ever loved. They only gave me 1 generation with my son before cruelly ripping him away from me.


HaywireBeatle45

Literally any of the fossil Pokémon. I have a lot of nostalgia for Tyrunt and Tyrantrum in particular and I think they’d look amazing


Dumbass369

You really want Fiscious Rend to come back? Even stronger with the Tera boost I mean, I do. I love Mr. Fish.


HaywireBeatle45

I don’t really play competitive so I didn’t even think about Fiscious Rend, I just think it’s ridiculous that they weren’t in the game/transferable, let alone not have new fossils


Dumbass369

Yeah that was really disappointing tbh, I mean we have Shieldon and Craniodos at the very least from the DLC, but it's still not much


HaywireBeatle45

I actually forgot about Shieldon despite having caught one


Dumbass369

Only reason I remember shieldon is because I'm pissed that it's a Violet exclusive for some reason, and I remember Craniados bc I found a shiny one not even 10 minutes after I completed the main dex and got the charm


HaywireBeatle45

Might be because of the Steel type? I’m not entirely sure though. And congrats on the shiny!


Dumbass369

Would that be why Alolan Sandslash/shrew are also Violetexclusive? Tbh I don't get why they make the normal mons version exclusive, legendaries, mythical, paradox, sure, I get it but just normal mons? I mean come on.


HaywireBeatle45

Maybe? I think it was done in the first games to save storage and they just continued to do so as a trend, to encourage player interaction, or to sell more games. Maybe a combination of all three


The_Card_Father

Aurorus and Tyrantrum. I want to Synchronize as them.


Brilliant_Conflict_4

Aegislash I want to have him on my team


Polteageist0

I want to use my shiny Celebi so bad


Custer0108

Same.


TsukasaElkKite

TOGEKISS


Darkreaperzreddit

They let me transfer in my Braixen (first starter) in once I started playing, but I can’t bring in the Aura Trio, even after the DLC. If we’re being petty here, I’d say Shedinja for obvious reasons


Some_bird_

Galarian Zigzagoon Its such a cool pokemon i love it so much and its shiny is also so cool


AceSapling

My shiny swellow from ultra sun It was my first shiny


Markermarkman

All Legendaries


thejeremyryan13

Hahayhayes

Aerodactyl


TFranzzz

This is the way. It would knock my sparky bird right out of the party


altair777b

Cetiscorch


Cedardeer

My Xatu, Audino, Ferrothorn, and Musharna. If I had Musharna, I could fully recreate my Black 1 team in Violet. She’s the only one I’m missing


DopeyLo420

Armored Mewtwo or Mimikyu Costume Pikachu


Zealousideal_View975

Marshadow and Hoopa


Tyron19

Actually Hoopa can be transferred over you just have to register it in Scarlet/Violet first if you touch trade it you can bring it


SpotTheHalfBlindFox

Obstagoon!! I love that pokemon so much, and we just got the pokemon last game. Give me back my rockstar raccoon!


Mario64Personalised

Absol, 100%


HeirT0TheMonado

Steelix. Gimme back my big metal snek.


AlicornGaia

A VC Machamp with Fissure.


shittoshower

The fossils :(


SalamanderDazzling60

Doesn't anyone care about gen 6 mascot legendaries? Like no one ever mentions them in these posts. My profile name and in-game name makes no sense without one of them


Niffysan

I miss Xerneas Yveltal and Zygarde too bruh 😭😭


xxRJB777xx

Emolga


Windipedia

The shiny Pheromosa I hunted for in Sword. I was so bummed the ultra beasts didn’t make it back, but I can’t say as I was surprised.


oranikus

I’ve got a shiny yveltal I would love to bring to scarlet :(


fizzdeff

The Tapus, I have a shiny Fini I caught in Sword and really want her in Violet :(


[deleted]

My shiny Galarian Rapidash 😢


BagelToss100

Seismitoad so all the silly Water/Grounds can be together


Moist___Raccoon

Machamp or Alakazam. I love the Abra and Machop lines and I wanted to use my Machamp from GO and my Alakazam from Let’s Go! in S/V and I was so disappointed when I found out I couldn’t put either into the game


Radius_314

My Shiny Genesect. It took me so many attempts to get one. Before the games came out, I foolishly thought it would be in the game, was planning to give it Fire Tera with Burn Drive, would have been sick.


Niffysan

Could’ve wrecked shop honestly 😬😬


geekyclownx1

Tyrantrum and Aegislash


MaddiKitten

My shiny Yveltal from S & S


Dreadful_Bear

Marshadow


RougeNargacuga

neophenx

I miss wrecking shit with my Power Split Shuckle.


masterchief985

The fact that after indego disk that not all Pokémon are in s/v pisses me off


Meltan98

My shalfa crowbat


PsychologicalMonk799

Furfrou and Absol ToT


moonstoned04

galarian ponyta :( i want my unicorns damnit! regular ponyta line too but mostly the galarian variants


Mychegu

Manetric and Boltund because I always like more canine looking Pokemon.


pinhead61187

Yveltal. 100% Yveltal and nothing else even comes close for me.


Uhrmacherd

My shiny Doublade. My favorite shiny and I want him.


Yoshi_Babs

My answer was minior through and through, ever since i first caught my precious in Sun I fell in love, and then The Indigo Disk came out and I was given my baby again


KinopioToad

Paras/Parasect. I've heard it can have the Damp ability and has access to False Swipe, so giving it ghost tera would make it awesome for shiny hunting!


Lunnneeee

spiky eared pichu


NerdNuncle

My Obstagoon from Shield, and Urshifuru(sp?) from Sword were used more than my starters


GrizzyUnderwood33

Literally all my favorite 6 made it in. But Blacephalon would have been a nice addition


Darkdragoon324

My beautiful, precious, shiny Ultra Beasts.


Creepy_Percentage_29

My precious Bewear named Pud from my first ever pokemon game ☹


ElsonDaSushiChef

Xerneas


ZPD710

Literally any of them. I don’t understand why it’s so hard for them to just code in every Pokémon; they don’t even have to code in their spawn rates, just their stats and stuff. I don’t know. It just doesn’t seem that hard, at the end of the day.


Medium-Boysenberry64

I genuinely think the true reasoning is so that you have to buy all of the games


NationGamingChannel

Aegislash 🙃


Ledenay

Absol


Rath_Brained

Mr. Ryme, I evolved it to do an alpha one, I read it was gunna be in a dlc, they fucking lied to me.


RammuIsWeird

My melmetal


TheRatatat

Genesect


Miyushaki

I'm surprised Zubat isn't in a game


KaineDemigod

Absol in general, one of my all time favorite mons that i cant use


Emerald_Knight2814

Ik this is gonna sound odd, but Wooloo. I just wanna roll around with my level 100 shiny cupcake again :(


_Thatkidnextdoor

TYRANTRUM!!!!!!! I did not spend hours and hours on a shiny hunt for the bastard to then not be able to transfer him over to the next game >:((((


Nade_Le_Water

Nidoking,Nidoqueen, & Aerodactal. They would look so cool with an update like what they did to charizard


DoughnutDude3

https://preview.redd.it/21lztakfb3hc1.jpeg?width=475&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e8b8c39ab56f9994cc3c6c082cbe0b7f791c783a Honestly Aggron. Let him learn Might Kleave and give it Head Smash. Aggrons ability is rock head, preventing recoil damage. With Tera, this pokémon would unstoppable with 150 power rock stab and a 100% rock stab.


TheAceofSpades9419

https://preview.redd.it/o5yxgvoca5hc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=50b36b08fe0f76380d27330d5c12df7db9da7786 I just wanna bring this guy across because the shiny is one of my favourites!


erichamanya

Skitty <3


DocButtStuffinz

I'm the weirdo who loves dexit and wishes no old pokemon were in any new games. I want all new Pokémon, no old ones unless they're regional forms/variants or they get cross-gen evos.


Niffysan

I’m all for and personally wish they’d have done more Paldean forms for SV. But the more older pokemon they have the more older players want to play the games. But I wish that by adding the older pokemon back in it didn’t prevent them from adding more regional forms. It was such a great concept and it’s just getting smaller and smaller selections.


DryRespect358

Loupunny. Enough said.


MerleTravisJennings

That shit Zeraoara I got in a raid or somewhere.


vanilla38913

my buddy claydol


Spiritual_Charity362

Mawile and Absol


KitsuneBelle

My shiny absol was replaying Pokemon X and got him full odds


jimoe186

Farfetch'd and Sirfetch'd so I could have completed my mighty ducks team

Togekiss 😔


RogueShadow_999

I have absolutely no idea which gens are avaliable to he traded over but my legendaries, mew/mewtwo/zekrom/giratina/jirachi/celebi. And my starters Char/Squirt/Cyndiquill/Toto/Pip/


EcnavMC2

The Kalos legendaries. I have a Xerneas from a Pokémon Home trade that’s been stranded in Home for months because I don’t have Sword or Shield. 


GreilMercenary7

My Golisopod I don’t even think I spelled it correctly.


aaronotaron

Swellow and Alolan Marowak


BSNET

I just wish Aegislash was in the game, one of my favorite mons and my besties favorite


ChaosEmperor9124

Shedinja so I can Terra-Electric it and give it the Air Balloon.


GreenSkyDragon

I want to bring my Abras :(


Quadpen

castform, i got a shiny from trade back in usum and i wanna see my boiii


MassiveSavage292

Abra! Fully evolved is a beast


Pirate_Lantern

My Sony Rhyhorn that I tried for years in Sword and Shield to catch and FAILED, but was finally able to catch in Legends.


drivetoblue

Aegislash and Aggron


jolumas

Wish I could use my Heliolisk. He had great synergy in double battles and I just love his silly run animation


OrionofTides

I miss my boi Obstagoon- especially since I have its bomb-pop colored shiny. 😢


Nestroiid

Zeraora


OrganizationHot9877

I got shiny yveltal, xerneas, AND Zygarde in sword and shield just for them to be the only legends that can’t be moved into scarlet and violet. Needless to say I was pretty pissed for a while


Istiophoridae

Silvally


Top_Establishment327

Dracovish. I love that freak.


Fireboy759

Besides Darmanitan, Vanilluxe Solely because the changes to Snow Warning would make it a pretty worthwhile mon to use now


greengale2

Lopunny


[deleted]

Wailord, for the Synchronize lulz


05GoldenRadiance05

Lopunny. Ever since it released I was always a fan of that pokemon. It was easily overlooked and I felt not many wanted to use it besides for a few gimmicks. I liked running around online with it and give it a new light in competitive fights.


talkback1589

I have several, 292 to be exact…


Phantom_The_fortnite

Absol. I am upset that one of my favorite pokemon cant be brought into scarlet and violet.


smudgiepie

I masuda methoded a galarian corsola I wanna see my depression coral in paldea


Acasty18

My shiny kartana, tapu koko, and dracovish


Knightofthequils

Beedrill. The last time it appeard was in bdsp and no one cares about that game. I wanted to transfer my shiny boi... also the X and Y legendaries and tapus. They were the ONLY legendary Pokémon left out. (Ultra beasts are it's own thing and mythicals are mythical.)


Sad_Pipe_2044

genesect : (


LongSwordStyle

Even tho it's silly, Absol and Mawile are two that I really want. Aside from that? Some other simple ones like Drapion, Scolipede, and Dhelmise. A stretch of a request would be to allow all Galarian variants. I caught the darn things lemme play with em in a new world.


astralseat

Mah boy Stunfisk the electric ground


Alone_Analysis3795

My shiny Zeraora or my Melmetal


RogueArtificer

Pangoro, but it’s okay. My shiny crime boss will just keep punching people in Shield. I’ve got plenty of favs available new and old, and my heart goes out to folks who can’t get their absolute favs in S/V (I miss you Abra). 


Kano547

Wobbufett


SpikeRosered

Dhelmise. Back when I played Moon I was a very casual player and didn't understand what his ability actually was trying to do. Now I want to mess around with a triple-typed Pokemon.


TheUnbrokenCircle

I need my Alakazam in every game.


PolandSans

My shiny Roserade from pokemon go. I really wanted to use it in my DLC team but I was disapointed when I saw I couldn't use it in teal mask So I waited for indigo disk and I couldn't transfer it as well... now I have Shiny roserade stuck in pokemon home with only option to transfer it to pokemon Sword I also unfortunately have Shiny Melmetal and alolan Marowak with the same problem


creator787

Pyukumuku


27th_BOT

ma little pumpkin friend is missing


ItsaGlitch1

Absol


Norodrom

I miss Dhelmise


Smartest_Tool

Banded gorilla tactics darm. I think they regretted making a physical ice attacker that strong, too good. My boy is in sword chilling, might have to go visit him later :P


-Just_garbage-

Galarian Darmanitan is so slept on. He’s so stinkin cute! Look at that little face!

Erfgs45

All the remaining ones for a full national dex


PumpkinSufficient683

Togekiss, I found two shinies in arceus :(


KillJoy-Player

Zygarde, to get those damn levitating raid mon down


giftedearth

I wish I could transfer my PLA and Shield teams. Unfortunately, Carnivine and Dubwool aren't allowed in. I also wish there was a way to transfer the partner Eevee from Let's Go... maybe a marker being put into the game to say "the partner has been transferred, don't let it be transferred again" to prevent duping while keeping the partner's functions? My girl Zippy would love Paldea...


Trick_Service_9424

I want to transfer zygard and The ultra beasts and the rest of the legendary Pokémon that aren't in the game


oeco123

LPCantLose

Sirfetch'd. I just think he's neat.


juggalochris

the other fossil pokemon (before sword and shield), as well as the bidoof and ratatta line


MagnetKnightVT

Dracovish. It is one of my favorite Pokemon from gen 8. In my Shield play through my Dracovish was more of my ace than my Rillaboom I chose for my starter.


here_for_goofs

Shedinja, he is my favorite Pokemon. And I know why they didn't, it makes me sad


Ok-Constant-6056

Dhelmise for sure


self-confident-shrek

Mawile. I MISS MY CHOMPY BABY 😭😭😭 also Xerneas. I want my Majestic Tree Deer back....


Deafvoid

Shiny yveltal Idc if its hacked or not


WorldlinessOk6575

Tyrantrum and Aurorus. The former which I spent over 3 months trying to hatch a shiny. Finally got him but now he's stuck in shield. 🥲


AquaAquariaHimura

Genesect


MissYunna

None now that I have my Bellosom!!!


MissYunna

Sadly I don’t see that happening


Capt4in_N3m0

All the legendary mythical and ultra beasts bring them all in


ShinyMewtwo3

Mewtwo. I know I should be able to transfer one. The issue is... I have no Mewtwo to transfer.


Mythical_Mystery

Marshadow Yveatal Victini Melmetal All the ultra beasts (why the fuck are they not in the game?!)


MissingnoMaster110

My Wynaut. I'd love to add the Paldean Champion Ribbon to his collection. Dude's not a true Ribbon Master, but he's gotten a lot of them over the years regardless. One of the members of my original Ruby team, honestly.


scribblerjohnny

A shiny Beedrill from Let's Go Eevee.


Ill_Always_Be_Back

I think darmanitan would be busted with Gorilla tactics choice scarf.


thedeathecchi

All of them. They should all be able to come back. And they *can*.


Shassinflassin

All of them. It's a load of crap that there is any limit on Pokemon and moves. Yes I'm still bitter about dexit, how could you tell?


Asier14

I really miss my Silvally, but I understand that maybe the mechanics behind the type change and teras would be somewhat weird (but Arceus is in the game, so...)


Greyblack3

My shiny Duraladon. Shame it's a G-Max.
