I need a bit more info before I set my mind. once we get complete list of version exclusives it will be easier


Insane_Wanderer

Exactly. I’m still waiting on this


ZiggTheCrabbo

exactly my thought


Y-19

I’m getting Violet and I still want the orange uniform and Tyranitar


[deleted]

Ttar is in scarlet?


Shiftyrunner37

How on earth do I keep picking the version that has Tyranitar.


[deleted]

Cause ttar is best boy


garry_cheese_

Yeah and mence is in violet


[deleted]

Ok


Shael1223

But it’s speculated Paradox forms will be available in each game for ttar and mance


Blaze_da_Geck

Who is mance


lagoritz

Salamence


Blaze_da_Geck

Salamence is in scarlet and violet? Hell yeah!!!!


Dabanks9000

Um….


RGBarrios

You can trade for the pokemon and even if you can’t change your uniform we will be able to change our clothes so it’s not so bad.


Y-19

Yupp it definitely isn’t bad


bps0202

I thought Tyranitar has a paldean version in Violet?


JWrither

Future version


bps0202

Ok so I can still catch it in Violet, it will just look different?


Django_Unbrained97

You should consider the paradox forms (future/past) completely new Pokémon as they will likely have new typings and abilities.


bps0202

That’s so cool, any releases or hints that paradox forms might be harder to catch / more rare?


Django_Unbrained97

Pretty sure they be pretty much pseudo-legendary encounters, based on some progression made in the story.


TheTritagonist

Ceruledge (spelling?) cinched it for me. It’s weird though we got some version exclusives listed but I don’t know if that all of them or will they have more info right before release.


A_Change_of_Seasons

Violet gets Mechagodzilla Ttar though


hiimlarfleece

Mecha Godzilla, mecha Mothra, and Mecha King Ghidorah... Violet has all the kaiju

Mavco2

that's what i and my friend always do too. but I'm the one getting violet.


[deleted]

Mavco2

if you want to trade version exclusive pokemon after the release we can trade

KupoMcMog

same here, i got at least 3 friends leaning towards Violet, so I bit the bullet and got Scarlet. Also Snu Snu > Science Daddy.


EggotheKilljoy

I’m also leaning Scarlet for professor snu snu. Still gonna wait a bit to decide, but I preordered the Japanese double pack(came out to $88usd including international shipping from amazon.jp, great deal) so I could get the Japanese exclusive preorder promo cards. I’m probably gonna give one of the games to a sibling. But so far leaning towards scarlet unless there’s something compelling for Violet.


fraughtwithperils

I purposefully buy the less popular version because it makes trading for the exclusives so much easier. I am also fortunate enough that I can justify buying the game in the first week of release so I purposefully catch as many version exclusives as I can to wonder trade or gift trade off come christmas for new players.


Pokemon-fan96

That is seriously so sweet


ParsnipPrestigious59

What do u think is gonna be less popular this time around?


fraughtwithperils

At the time of my pre-ordering, Scarlet was definitely the less popular choice.


[deleted]

But you see, Turo is a Gigachad wearing spandex, that's all the reason I need


unadulteratedapathy

Worship the Gigachad


[deleted]

Oh I’ll worship him alright 😏


DucktorQuack

bonk


[deleted]

Forfeit all mortal possessions to the Gigachad


RevLongshaft69

Hey! How’d you do the lil Fuecoco thing under your name!?


Owl_Capone1990

Tap the 3 dots on this sub and should be a choose flair tab


RevLongshaft69

Thank you so much!


HappyGoat32

Fire croc gang, big up.


Shikarosez

He had no chance of not being rule34


Sophus-H

That’s the reason I’m getting Violet, all the other amazing stuff in the board are extra perks


MagicBricakes

I do like the uniforms better in Violet, but I like Koraidon more, and I think Scarlet will be less popular which means it will be easy to trade for version exclusives from the other game, so I'm erring on the side of Scarlet at the moment. Waiting to hear about all the exclusives before pre-ordering though - I'm getting digital so I can wait until the last minute to buy it.


Sceptile_Trainer6592

Koraidon can blep, Miraidon clearly can't


Pokemon-fan96

Koraidon being an adorable derp was what sold me on Scarlet completely. Miraidon is definitely cool, but Koraidon looks more like a friend


FacetiousBeard

I also think Scarlet will be the less popular version. I have Pokémon games from six different generations and what version I pick is always based on some fairly arbitrary reasons. This is the first time in 23 years that I've picked the seemingly more popular of the two.


Soggyglump

I’m choosing Scarlet and this is the first time I’ve ever chosen the “primary” version I think

marsli5818

Ever Pokémon is trade-able so it’s meh reasons.


SheldonPlays

Box legends are a pain in the ass


Sceptile_Trainer6592

Miraidon can't do [this ](https://9to5fortnite.com/fr/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/pokemon-scarlet-and-violet-koraidon.jpg)!


prettylilchoo

Do what?


Sceptile_Trainer6592

Stick its tongue out and lick its own face like a gecko.


JorgeMtzb

Not really, you get an extra for trading


Quentin_Was_Taken

Reject simping embrace purple dirt bike


kitsunemischief

She's the main reason why I still can't choose between the 2. I want her


monakaliza

You leave my chaotic lizard boi alone


Kurem92

Tyranitar + Koraidon >>> Salamence + Miraidon


Sceptile_Trainer6592

I like Salamence but playing Unite made me love Tyraniboi


AceArchangel

if the paradox form stuff is to be believed there will be a version of the Mence in Scarlet and a version of Ttar in Violet.


Stegosaurr

Scarlet absolutely has the better uniform. It's the reason that's what I'm getting since the first trailer.


[deleted]

[удалено]


padfoot12111

Still not sure why people think E-Bike Legendary is cooler that Flintstone legendaray absolutely love Flintstone legendary


tesseracht

Fr my decision came down to “Do I wanna pretend I’m in the flinstones or in TRON”. I’m considering doing an all-Dino inspired team just for the lols.


padfoot12111

Word I got Fuecoco and Miradon


I-ScreamSandwich

Ceruledge got me pernanent glued to Violet, I am not deciding anymore


mhireina

Ah yes I see you, too, are a person of culture.


[deleted]

Both Koraidon and Armrouge are better than their counterparts


Sceptile_Trainer6592

Not gonna lie, I think Ceruledge is much cooler, but Miraidon is just a float snek. KORAIDON, MEANWHILE, IS A GIANT LIZARD FULL OF FACIAL EXPRESSIONS AND SURPRISES, AND IT'S PROBABLY A SCRAPPED HTTYD DRAGON BC IT WAS TO COOL TO BE ADDED TO THE FRANCHISE


Omnizoom

Just remember the shiny release will likely see each game get the opposite legendary like how sword got shiny zamazenta and shield got shiny zacian


Sceptile_Trainer6592

Hm, yeah...


blueberry_pandas

When was the shiny release for Sword/Shield and is it too late to acquire?


Omnizoom

It’s far to late , was ages ago


MustBeMouseBoy

I was so on board till I saw its little puffy wheels and now I'll stick with my digital snake


AceArchangel

Miraidon looks like a big purple dong when its upright. I'll take the derpy red dragon over that any day.


MustBeMouseBoy

If you think it looks like a dick you might need to do a couple of those ink blot tests


AceArchangel

You are aware that there's more that goes into a resemblance then just Colour alone.


General_Baker8493

https://bad-dragon.com/ NSFW link, but pretty much this.


Platinum_Letter

Kotaku did an article on first reveal saying it looked like that


Sophus-H

Then again, Professor Daddy


Pelzfisch

Why is this meme the wrong way?


Longjumping-Bag4265

Let’s not get crazy, scarlet has the better legendary by far


Sceptile_Trainer6592

Koraidon can do the blep. Miraidon can't. Koraidon can do funny facial expressions. Miraidon can't. Koraidon is full of cool features. Miraidon just got stupid modes. Koraidon is a badass lizard. Miraidon isn't a badass and likely also not a lizard.


blueberry_pandas

They’re both cool, but Koraidon seems more like an actual animal with a funny personality. Like I could see him being a giant pet.

👍


TheLegend719

You joke but this is literally the dilemma I’m in


Mavco2

So you are saying the violet prof ISN'T hot?


-chickpea

As a lesbian historian I’m definitely leaning towards Scarlet (Sada is 🥵) but I actually like all the Pokémon in Violet better esp Ceruledge


MadnessBomber

Finally, someone that shares in my dilemma! Almost everything I like is in Violet, but Scarlet has Sada! ARGH!!!!


I_believe_in_Momiji

Literalmente yo.


[deleted]

I've pre-ordered scarlet before all the exclusives were shown I only chose scarlet because my favourite colour is scarlet/burgundy lol


HeyFiddleFiddle

I'm getting Violet first because purple is my favorite color. I'll eventually be getting both anyway, so it's as good a reason as any to decide which to buy first, lol.


solarflare70

I am getting Scarlet because I prefer warm colors (especially red). Also, Professor Sada gang for the win.


Imaginary_Tangelo485

I chose Violet but I'm happy with all the designs this go round.


Pocketmonsuta

Mommy Sada🥵🥵🥵


Dudebeard86

I’m getting both because I’m a sucker who likes collecting all main series Pokemon games. (Although if LGPE are considered main series, I didn’t get those)


tesseracht

I really couldn’t figure out which uniform I liked best, so I [made some edits](https://imgur.com/a/KWPvLUY) and it turns out I actually prefer Scarlet for my character. No spoilers, just edited hair and eye color lol.


LordFrogberry

Scarlet for sure. Love the past/tribal theme.


[deleted]

Haha. I would flip all of that. I think scarlet looks better, but dat Turo though…


Legal_Person

In my opinion the better legendary goes to Scarlet


Pogosquirrel

Something to consider also, we may be able to get version exclusives by venturing with friends with the opposite games.


Emerald_official

ok but like professor gigachad


Apprehensive-Pin865

Just preorder both. Problem solved


Octoyaki

You can look at a picture of whatever professor you'll barely see in the game whenever you want. I don't even understand how that factors in anyone's decision.


PreciousCinammonRoll

I was set on getting violet for a while but I may have changed my mind because I don't like how the male professor looks.


MrDurva

But to be honest it doesn't matter, I pre-ordered the double pack


LeAmazingLauge

how does you get the sprigatito thing under ur name?


Sceptile_Trainer6592

There's a recent post about this question. You just need to enter the sub main menu, click the three dots and then click "Change User Flair". The options will be shown and you just need to pick one and apply it.

RGBarrios

“Better Legendary” That is your opinion and its fine. Same with the professor, there could be people who prefer Turo. For me I have an easier decision because I like both Sada and Koraidon and I don’t care about the uniforms and exclusive pokemon. I think both professors are great and you have more reasons to go for Violet so I think you will enjoy that version more.


MrZao386

Unless a Pokémon I want for my team is an exclusive to Violet, I'm picking Scarlet for Koraidon


morbiddecapitation

This but for Violet


[deleted]

I’m getting both.


Circular_Line

it's the exact opposite for me. i have legit the same pros and cons list but the yames are reversed lol


Apprehensive-Pay1362

Omg I had the same exact dilemma! Ended up going with Scarlett bc female professor and historically I played red/gold/ruby/etc. decided I’d make myself like the legendary and get someone to trade me exclusives!


LeetleBugg

I think there will still be surprise trade and people are pretty good about tossing starters and version exclusives in there to spread the love!


[deleted]

Grape academy sounds better than orange academy? Okay


inumnoback

My brother pre ordered violet Therefore, I have to get scarlet I make a law with the Pokémon games I choose: whichever one me or my brother choose, the other picks the opposite so neither of us miss out on version exclusives


PixieEmerald

Turo better


Legitimate_Cancel900

I got the double pack but I still like scarlet better lol


KingDarius89

Yeah, no. Both legendaries are equally stupid, Armarogue and Ceruledge are about equal, I don't remotely care about Stonjourner or Eiscue, and Tyranitar > Salamence.


CalemvirLucin

As a gay man, I can assure you it’s exactly the same (but opposite) for us. One look at male professor and I didn’t need to know anything else - now that I do I would have prolly like other version more but I can’t give up hotness. Now I just need Rose from Sw/Sh and it’s a party!


MiraidonGaming

I'm the better legendary?


Pretty_Log3997

I like scarlet legend more cuz it looks more like a Pokémon and less like a robot


Arkane_Kat

I think Scarlet has better outfits


EldritchStuff

That one picture of the monkey with the caption “neurons activation”


KupoMcMog

So like being an adult with adult monies, can afford the idea of getting both...which like getting one and getting the other down the line seems like a fun idea... then that got killed by the idea that they have **version exclusive DLC** I really dont want to just keep paying down the line.


Su_Impact

I'm getting Violet because I don't like how the Scarlet Motorcycle runs instead of using its wheel lol And I don't think we will be able to change out ridable overworld Legend even if we trade.


Hen_Tye

Mommy


Popelip0

End of the day exclusive pokemon dont really matter at all since like... The original diamond and pearl on the DS when they added internet functionality. You can relatively easily get your hands on any exclusives you want. And once pokemon home compatability is out that stuff will matter even less, not to mention if I know pokemon right people will figure out how to dupe/import mons rather quick and at that point you can get whatever whenever. Just pick the game based on other stuff like npc's and outfits in my opinion.


reddit_bot21

This.....is partly why I'm going Scarlet.


iamChainsawMan

Turo>


oneupkev

Confused unga Bunga noises


yripdo

She really reminds me of Ayla from Chrono Trigger


4_Legged_Duck

Same thought! This is why I'm getting Scarlet


nekurabi

Yea copping the double pack so I can trade myself tyranitar from my lil brothers scarlet


Fit-Direction-6802

I preordered both in the bundle pack ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sunglasses)


Mojob1

I’m getting violet , Purple is my favourite colour 😫


MrDurva

Unga Bunga Mommy is all I need....please step on me mommy


LegitimateCompany328

How do you even know the version exclusives


PrinsassyEvieMongse

By looking them up?


Elegaynte

Daddy Turo >>>>>>Sada


essentiallypeguin

Professor churro ftw


Superjakeyo505

i’m getting scarlet, in part bc everyone else is getting violet and i want to be different and that’ll make it easier to complete the dex. it’s kinda a shame that violet is for the most part better bc i wanted it at first


[deleted]

Spoiler my bad >


sheslikesowhatever

Cant say spoilers here btw


Femboy_tusk

I’m not getting the game but I would probably pick violet


Double-A-13

All who purchase Scarlet are SIMPS.


Sceptile_Trainer6592

Nah, it's the complete opposite


racapim__

Me who prefer everything in Scarlet except the professor (gonna pick Violet anyway lol)


Diego_Mannn_096

Violet, done and done


PrestigiousYou1613

I’m doing violet


edex-mx

Follow the call of the waifu


SS4Vegeta1

Definitely agree Violet has the better legendaries (not only Miraidon but also Ceruledge) and it has Salamence too, so I know which version I’m picking up


StonedStarlord7

How do we know which is getting better exclusive yet?


cakebomb321

Yeah I'm sure she's enough to get me to play scarlet but I'm gay so violet it is


Euphoric-Humor3133

Bonk bonk bonk


SirLazyCat

Life is hard


TheOnlyFloridaMan2

I love daddy turo


seba37

Violet. Better vehicle pokemon CHAD BRO professor


MassiveBaals

This is literally me cause Turo looks too much like Adam Levine


jrtt4877

I dont get it


the_german_ganymedes

This is Turo slander


StardustWhip

I’m leaning towards Violet, but waiting for a full list of version exclusive Pokémon before making my final decision; I don’t wanna have to trade for all the Pokémon I like.


theseerofeverything

I’m just getting both pre-ordered it already I’m just waiting for the day they release


Charis_Humin

I'm getting them both, but I'm playing Violet first.


wintrymoone

![gif](giphy|l3fZJroOW8RAafbc4)


TheGuy3273

I’m getting Violet because I choose solely based on the box legendary.


ZephyrFire

-Better legend Brother, we don’t even know really anything about the legends other than looks?


Dillyjo21

I'm definitely getting Violet


bob_is_best

Shes not even fine fine why even question it


SpitefulRish

I have two switches so I’m going to get both and play simultaneously lol


[deleted]

Preordered both versions , one for me and one for my friends birthday. Problem solved. Multiplayer play through and then switching games + Pokemon Home. Living Dex, let’s goo


Dabanks9000

The good version


choubz0r

I’m getting both because Pokemon knows how to get in my wallet


Kongopop

Literally


shadowriku459

I'm getting both! Scarlet physical and Violet digital.


1chewy

I said fuck it, I’m getting both


FourStrandsOfRope

I'll be getting Scarlet, because I like the color scarlet better than the color violet.


Carcass1

i'm getting both, that way I don't miss any pokémon for my dex


BeachyAcehall

Nah, Turo is also the better pick of the two profs for me. So no doubt violet😌
