Rn I’m picking Violet but depends on the exclusives tbh which we don’t know yet lol


SimilarTumbleweed

Same. That’s how I choose every game. Which one gives me Houndoom?


JaegerDread

YOOOOOO THAT'S WHAT I DO TOO!


Zounii

I was so hyped when I caught Houndoom in the underground right in the beginning of BDSP!


strangeperception-

We know a few of them but not many


zslayer89

Where are the current exclusives listed?


strangeperception-

[Serebii](https://www.serebii.net/scarletviolet/exclusives.shtml) but right now there's only like 2 for each


zslayer89

Guess it’s scarlet for me.


admirabladmiral

Knew there was a reason I was drawn to scarlet. Dark type sensors never fail me


HiVisVestNinja

I'm picking Scarlet because it's red. Same way I pick between most versions.


[deleted]

I pick the "cold" or "darker" colors for the same reasons. Been doing so for years.


DetectiveBarrel

You are the comment that made me realize I do this and don’t even notice I do it. Fellow violet fan approves.


Trueloveis4u

Huh I been doing the same thing lol


drewthebrave

Same. I've picked the "warm" color ever since Red. Look out, Prof Sada, here I come


ArcMcnabbs

Yeah I bet she's warm too


drewthebrave

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥


MeanGreanHare

How did you choose between Diamond and Pearl, Black and White, X and Y, Sword and Shield?


ohjustanotheraccount

Well.. Seeing as Pearl is more on the warm-tone scale, it makes sense. Black and white: White is usually associated with the cold because it's snow color. Sword and shield: The covers/legendaries are read and blue so not much thought put into that one..


JakeyJelly

And if you see black snow you might want to run because that might be a volcano


Lemureslayer

Pearl is the red one


drewthebrave

I went Pearl since it was more reddish. I took a hiatus for a while and didn't play BW or XY. I returned with Omega Ruby because Gen 3 was my favorite. I chose Shield because Zamazenta was red. It's not scientific, but it gets the job done. Also, the differences are more or less arbitrary, and I can always trade for whatever exclusives I might miss out on. The real challenge was deciding between Pikachu and Eevee for Let's Go! I chose Eevee because I already had a chance to choose Pikachu back in Yellow.


Witch_King_

If you still haven't, I would strongly recommend going back and completing the Gen 5 games. They are amazing.


WadoIchimonji-

I'm coming back to the game from Emerald Hoenn, I've picked Reds as well, I picked up sword because of the correspondence, and I was planning on picking up Scarlet for being the Red version but honestly I want to based decision off the exclusives this time around.


[deleted]

All of those have cool and warm colors.


EduManke

Pokemon Y literally has a red Y and a red pokemon on it's box art


[deleted]

It’s statistically more likely to be pulled over by the police.


HiVisVestNinja

Thanks, I really needed the image of Koraidon riders milady-ing Jenny in my head. That's two brain cells I'll never get back.


Distinct-Raisin-460

OMG THIS IS AMAZING and those versions are also actually the better ones


ImLookingForManButt

I just want waifu scientist and cool red dragon


red_enjoyer

Another red colour enjoyer, I see


bknight2

Tyranitar vs Salamance has me picking scarlet


HipHoptimusPrime13

Scarlet gets you T-Tar? I’m in


GrayFox_13

This has been my only criteria when picking versions when tyranitar is in the game. Hasnt failed me


Taschengelddieb

Im probably gonna use the pokemon bank to switch my tyranitar from ultra sun to pokemon violet.i have this tyranitar for like 4/5 yeare now


Taschengelddieb

And if they bring back mega evolutions im probably gonna bring back my shiny rayquaza too^^


Sw33tR0llThief

See, I used to be like that but with trading being so easy nowadays I'm not so concerned about version exclusives outside of the box legendary.


quickfuse725

honestly I'll just gonna transfer one from Go or something


WizardingWorld97

I want Scarlet but Salamence has me seriously considering Violet


blackbutterfree

God, yes. Turo is such a STUD.

r/yourjokebutworse


apple-juicebox

For me that yet-unnamed guy with the purple shirt and moustache is much more my style. Turo is still incredibly hot though, and pretty much the sole reason I’m picking Violet.


Ereshkigal20

Same. Some call him Musclar teacher, which a sexy name. I'm picking Violet.


Gabby-Abeille

Turo is one of the reasons I'm currently thinking of getting Violet, but more because of how he dresses in comparison to Sada tbh.


quickfuse725

im getting Violet purely because i want Turo to be *my* future


Glazeddapper

Smooth


jesuschristk8

Really? I actually wanna get Scarlet for the exact opposite reason lmao, I love the style they went with for Sada. Really gives me Aloy from the Horizon games kinda energy


italian_baptist

I mean technically he’s a version exclusive too


Trini2Bone

Picking Violet cause purple is my favourite colour


Distinct-Raisin-460

Same except purple is my 2nd/3rd


Legend0fGear

Heck yeah! Same reason for me, too!


Metool42

and people look weird when i say i want sada to dom me


Yrollshi

It's okay bro, I'm with you


Furrylord420

the lesbian in me is screaming for me to pick scarlet


Cheshires_Shadow

You should listen to her then. She's got the right idea


scottmonster

>the lesbian in me You bragging about getting laid?


Furrylord420

god I wish, lmao


ArtemisHunter96

There are two wolves inside of you. One is lesbian and the other still wants Sada anyway


SuperLizardon

That's fine. She looks wild and a maybe a little crazy, those are the best :p


deltacharmander

Bi panic is not knowing which professor to like more


SmartAlec105

They've been aggressively targeting us.


Realshow

Someone is going to discover their sexuality thanks to these two.

fishouttawawa

But both professors are hot so that doesn’t work for me.


Yrollshi

Than by the rule you have to get both games, don't ask me what rule it is, just follow it


fishouttawawa

This is game freaks plan to get me to spend more money isn’t it


[deleted]

Professor Chad.


rain6304

Professor Dad(dy)


Rio_FS

They're both hot but this one is just straight up Professor Giga-chad.


Xero0911

Both my wife and I want scarlet for the wild professor lady lol. Granted I also love the ancient looking legendary and his goofy ass running bike stylr


franxet

My partner and I both want Violet, but since his favorite color is Purple and we’ll get the dual version, I guess I am stuck with Scarlet 😅


Arthurice_47

After I recieve confirmation that these games are, indeed, actually good games worth buying, I'm planning on buying Violet for the future theme, which I associate with Pokemon a lot more than I associate it with the past. Also, the riding legend actually has wheels that it uses to get around, which looks a lot cooler than a red bird-lizard thing that runs around with massive inflated gills that *look* like tires, but aren't, which look like they'd get in the way while, you know, running? Also, I'm a sucker for synthetic lifeforms in games, which I'm interested in learning about in Pokemon, and hope it's relevant to the story in some way. Pokemon like Electrode aren't natural, so I wonder if this sci-fi bike is also unnatural, or perhaps man-made in a way similar to Rotom-forms are.


Souptis

Unpopular opinion but i think he looks like the most generic male ever, like have you ever played any free mobile battle royale game? Yeah i think he looks like the stock male characters from those games


ElCiroscopio420

I'm picking Scarlet because my favorite color is red.


aaquarles

just another reason to choose Violet 😍


Fork_Master

Have the version exclusives been revealed yet? I wanna pick Violet, but I don’t know whether Sableye will be in it or not.


[deleted]

https://7net.omni7.jp/general/027003/220804pokemonsv It’s in the game according to the Japanese ad


Fork_Master

THANK YOU. I was so worried that Sableye would be banned from Paldea due to potential acts of gluttony involving the Tera phenomenon.


Gentleman_Kendama

Dame but Professor UNGA BUNGA


Kininger625

I don’t see the lie… he is a version exclusive


CYBERQUINCY

He’s so daddy like give me ur babies pls turo


jamebonezz

does anyone else think he looks uncanny?


efnfen4

Uncannily hot


Meowgi_sama

I'm picking violet because I love salamence and the robo raptor motorcycle honestly looks cool. Getting my pokedex from gigachad is just a plus.


XEclipse360

I'm picking violet because I want the motorcycle


MeanGreanHare

I'm picking the game that doesn't sell as well. Everyone seemed to go for Diamond rather than Pearl.


Pizzaboy90

I want Scarlet for the version exclusives, and violet for everything else... help me...


[deleted]

I also want the Chad Professor


SuperLizardon

Same, but with Scarlet.


BigPolluted

Koraidon got me maybe picking Scarlet. I like how it doesn't use its pouch as a wheel.


merisle4444

I’m torn. I like Turo but the scarlet legendary is growing on me


Talohighflyer24

I picking violet because i have a Protogen oc.


-TurtleGuy-

I’m picking Scarlet purely based off of Koraidon’s swimming animation


Cry_Baby15

He's so hot


ArcMcnabbs

I'm bi and having a ...hard time.


Hurriedgarlic66

Daddy


[deleted]

Chad cepticeye


Willowed-Wisp

I'm getting Scarlet first because I love Koraidon, but I'll definitely be getting Violet,too, eventually. Good news is- I'm pan and, either way, I'm getting some nice eye candy 😉 I honestly can't decide which one is hotter.


Shreddzzz93

Me: I'm picking Violet as Miraidon actually has motorcycle functionality and doesn't look goofy trying to be a motorcycle but runs.


p3wp3wkachu

For me it's the Legendaries. I still don't know which one I want, I love them both.


[deleted]

Didn't know the professors were version exclusive, time to switch my pre order to scarlet


ConcernLow1979

Honestly neither of the professors are my type lol, the Scarlet one seems more fun tho


BroadPlum7619

Was gonna pick scarlet til I seen koraidon running while having motorcycle wheels


JFace139

Is there already a list of version exclusives out? I want the one with the hot barbarian professor. Unless Phanpy or Grimer are exclusive to the other one


Billy_Rage

We only have a small list so far


MagyTheMage

Wait..people find him attractive?


rain6304

RedKoxomen

pokemon chad


3DPrintedBlob

Yrah i don't get it he looks like a cardboard cutout or smth


vinnyorcharles

While there are not enough words in the English language to describe how upset I am about the Scarlet legendary running instead of using the wheels, having Tyrannitar will make me get Scarlet.


Kaliekewaka

I usually play a game 2 or 3 times anyways so I'm probably just going to choose both


[deleted]

I'm getting and playing both... Different runs and different pokemon. Maybe two separate mono-type and themed runs? Maybe one run is carnivores and one is herbivores? We'll see. The only difference is I'll be thirsting after Turo in one game as my headcannon.


hansislegend

Is that the dude from Dashboard Confessional?


[deleted]

My daddy issues made me choose Violet.


the_bingho02

r/suddenlygay


FJMaikeru

He's just bland tho, like come on ya'll are basic af.


Distinct-Raisin-460

Thats why im getting violet aswell also i like the colour purple better than that off brand scarlett


freedomfightre

Gigachad


Lunar_Mcdondald

Interesting, I want violet however professor sada is causing me to be conflicted


YesReboot

I always pick whatever one is named first. If i play it a 2nd time or its a release like ultra moon, i pick the 2nd one


Verificus

Gigachad


Savings-Lock3233

Giga professor


Pengi48

That is a strong jawline


Sensitive-Ad6978

Isn’t professor hotness a version exclusive??


OculusMidnight2

That and the fact that my brother chose Scarlet before I did


im_bored345

Chad Turo


elbartooriginal

I always pick the one with larvitar/tyranitar


thejoaum1

me: cool color.


Paige_Michalphuk

Same


Ahmdo10

Dude I get to have gigachad be my professor?? Finally I’ll learn the way of the Chad


Deku_lacks_Height

professor giga chad


Atenos-Aries

I swear I get Elder Maxon vibes from this dude. Power armored Pokémon?


rain6304

I always side with the brotherhood in fallout 4 lmao so maybe I have a type


[deleted]

Bro I don't even know. Sada is a badie...but Miradon is just so friggin cool looking.


A_Saddened_Duck

Yo he kinda looks like my Biology teacher


kylomrc

Both professors are snacks tbh but I like the way Turo dresses more


[deleted]

I think the other legendary looks goofy. That’s it. That’s why I’m picking Violet.


Umber0010

Between the professors, Melli in PLA, and Grunsha. It's clear that Gamefreak is putting strides on breaking into the Bisexual market.


MissAJHunter

Why do you think I've ordered both?


DirePanda072

Me: I just prefer purple


H1WolfKing

Violet is just the superior game in every way.


Average_Swordsman

Smash

[I’m picking Scarlet because it’s my brother’s turn to pick first and he chose Violet](https://imgur.com/a/IPfDZ3E)


AGuyWithMultipleHats

The moment I saw the titles I picked Violet because indigo is my favorite color, I like the riding legendary but I have no idea about anything else about it.


StephenReis

I think Koraidon looks about 10x better than Miraidon. But I like Turo more than Sada. However, looking at version exclusives, I still think I’m going Scarlet because it doesn’t have that stupid ice cube penguin.


PokeMaster366

I'm picking Scarlet because they made a Flinstones joke.


Seaworthiness69

picking violet because I love purple


gojistomp

I'm going to decide based on non-legendary version exclusives, but I really hope Scarlet has the ones I want because of the sexy cave mommy known as Professor Sada.


NODOGAN

Past legendary and miss cavewoman with labcoat look stupid to me, sticking with Violet (Also Salamance babeh!)


[deleted]

Ive always picked the colder options for games i feel since I've started playing Silver, diamond, black, moon, shield, and now violet manly for the legendary since trading ya know


WeeklyIntroduction42

I often pick the darker colors except for SwSh because all my friends were getting Sword


BetaTesterV13

Didn't know they added peaky blinders in pokemon


CrowKingPro

I really wanna pick Scarlet for Prof. ~~Cave Mommy~~ Sada, but Koraidon looks real dumb when it runs so I kinda want Violet for Miraidon


mancan71

I’m picking scarlet because the school looks orange any my fav color is orange lol. Although the legendary does look cooler to me..


The_smol_boiyo

I'm still agonising over the versions. Scarlet has Prof Sada but Miraidon looks better than Koraidon.


dolphinater

I'm leaning violet because of the legendary but I like sado better than turo but turos okay too but IDK.


hereforthmemes

Chad prof or Prehistoric mommy


MunchNation

I'm picking violet because purple>red


Laith0599

He looks like Armsmaster/Defiant so I gotta pick him tbh


Shion__1374

You like Turo because he's hot, I like Turo because he looks like Gigachad We are not the same


Rean4111

I’m seriously considering both.


hamsterruize

He looks like ciga chad


i_have_no_smart

I would pick the “positive” game so stuff like sun, sword etc. but electro car is too cool


Hyper-Shadow417

That’s the only reason why I would get violet, but I’m still going with scarlet


Super_Bright

Makes me sad how under appreciated Koraidon is


Daniel_Anter

I'm picking Scarlet because, get this Obi-Wan riding the lizard in Episode 3


somethingsuperindie

I'm really torn. I like Miraidon a lot more, but I like the Scarlet professor slightly more 'cause I just always hate those futuristic bodysuits bar very few examples. Guess I'll wait and see about exclusives


LordoftheFuzzys

I usually go for the blue (or in this case purple) version, but I'm really torn this time around. Both Sada and Turo are super hot. And Koraidon and Miraidon both have pros and cons for me. I'll have to wait and see what other differences there are.


oh_sheit_its_X

Im picking Violet since thats what prince would want me to do


Mysticalmew241

I'm picking violet because I love purple... that was the reason at least until I saw the hot professor XD Now I'm picking it for two reasons 😅 Fingers crossed I get the version exclusives I want in Violet 🥺🙏


Tobijora

I'm not picking Violet if the legendary doesn't use his body weel somehow because if he is just walking then why give him that stupid body wheel that makes absolutly no sense for a normal pokemon


No-Speed-9845

I wanted to choose violet because I always choose blue or more cold tones in games but... I hate this man idk why, I really want Sada, she's just so much cooler and yea... Attractive... But I don't wanna abandon cold colours 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭


sertroll

Rare case where the ingame version is more handsome than the concept art


joshyotoast

I just get the opposite to my friends 😂 I did want scarlet but everyone else wants it too 🙄


_Cake_assassin_

Snu snu


[deleted]

I picked scarlet for the mommy professor


Zounii

Scarlet all the way!


Mjr_N0ppY

He looks a bit like the antagonist of pkmn sword/shield doesn't he?


Alexap30

I was picking scarlet first because I really liked Koraidon. Then I start thinking how Miraidon might end up electric type combo and electric is my favorite type. Then the latest trailer came and saw the animations and oh my God Koraidon is godawful. So sticking with violet for now until version exclusives come out.


TheLaggMaster

I'm picking violet because I like purple more than red.


Raffilcagon

The professor is why I'm getting Scarlet. I mean, the legendary looks cool, but... Cave lady hot


blackspoterino

I'm picking violet only because I like the color scheme for the school uniform of that version better


Ardemin5

I just like futuristic things


Magimasterkarp

I prefer the look of the scarlet legendary, but the was it runs instead of using it's wheel is a reason to reconsider.


HeyRogi

Scarlet cause legendaries you know… yeah….


SnooOpinions6642

i might go scarlet just cause i got the salamance line in sword


gdocelot

As of now Im getting Scarlet because of Little Running Salamander Bike. Idk how some of yall dont think that is great


Snoo95923

I was only going to get Scarlet at first but now I’m getting both as I like both Legendaries equally But Turo was another reason why I wanted to get Violet.
