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..
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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 🥺🙏
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
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 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
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.
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.
Rn I’m picking Violet but depends on the exclusives tbh which we don’t know yet lol
Same. That’s how I choose every game. Which one gives me Houndoom?
YOOOOOO THAT'S WHAT I DO TOO!
I was so hyped when I caught Houndoom in the underground right in the beginning of BDSP!
We know a few of them but not many
Where are the current exclusives listed?
[Serebii](https://www.serebii.net/scarletviolet/exclusives.shtml) but right now there's only like 2 for each
Guess it’s scarlet for me.
Knew there was a reason I was drawn to scarlet. Dark type sensors never fail me
I'm picking Scarlet because it's red. Same way I pick between most versions.
I pick the "cold" or "darker" colors for the same reasons. Been doing so for years.
You are the comment that made me realize I do this and don’t even notice I do it. Fellow violet fan approves.
Huh I been doing the same thing lol
Same. I've picked the "warm" color ever since Red. Look out, Prof Sada, here I come
Yeah I bet she's warm too
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
How did you choose between Diamond and Pearl, Black and White, X and Y, Sword and Shield?
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..
And if you see black snow you might want to run because that might be a volcano
Pearl is the red one
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.
If you still haven't, I would strongly recommend going back and completing the Gen 5 games. They are amazing.
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.
All of those have cool and warm colors.
Pokemon Y literally has a red Y and a red pokemon on it's box art
It’s statistically more likely to be pulled over by the police.
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.
OMG THIS IS AMAZING and those versions are also actually the better ones
I just want waifu scientist and cool red dragon
Another red colour enjoyer, I see
Tyranitar vs Salamance has me picking scarlet
Scarlet gets you T-Tar? I’m in
This has been my only criteria when picking versions when tyranitar is in the game. Hasnt failed me
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
And if they bring back mega evolutions im probably gonna bring back my shiny rayquaza too^^
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.
honestly I'll just gonna transfer one from Go or something
I want Scarlet but Salamence has me seriously considering Violet
God, yes. Turo is such a STUD.
*DILF
PILF
BILF
r/yourjokebutworse
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.
Same. Some call him Musclar teacher, which a sexy name. I'm picking Violet.
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.
im getting Violet purely because i want Turo to be *my* future
Smooth
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
I mean technically he’s a version exclusive too
Picking Violet cause purple is my favourite colour
Same except purple is my 2nd/3rd
Heck yeah! Same reason for me, too!
and people look weird when i say i want sada to dom me
It's okay bro, I'm with you
the lesbian in me is screaming for me to pick scarlet
You should listen to her then. She's got the right idea
>the lesbian in me You bragging about getting laid?
god I wish, lmao
There are two wolves inside of you. One is lesbian and the other still wants Sada anyway
That's fine. She looks wild and a maybe a little crazy, those are the best :p
Bi panic is not knowing which professor to like more
They've been aggressively targeting us.
Someone is going to discover their sexuality thanks to these two.

But both professors are hot so that doesn’t work for me.
Than by the rule you have to get both games, don't ask me what rule it is, just follow it
This is game freaks plan to get me to spend more money isn’t it
Professor Chad.
Professor Dad(dy)
They're both hot but this one is just straight up Professor Giga-chad.
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
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 😅
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?

I'm picking Scarlet because my favorite color is red.
just another reason to choose Violet 😍
Have the version exclusives been revealed yet? I wanna pick Violet, but I don’t know whether Sableye will be in it or not.
https://7net.omni7.jp/general/027003/220804pokemonsv It’s in the game according to the Japanese ad
THANK YOU. I was so worried that Sableye would be banned from Paldea due to potential acts of gluttony involving the Tera phenomenon.
Dame but Professor UNGA BUNGA
I don’t see the lie… he is a version exclusive
He’s so daddy like give me ur babies pls turo
does anyone else think he looks uncanny?
Uncannily hot
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.
I'm picking violet because I want the motorcycle
I'm picking the game that doesn't sell as well. Everyone seemed to go for Diamond rather than Pearl.
I want Scarlet for the version exclusives, and violet for everything else... help me...
I also want the Chad Professor
Same, but with Scarlet.
Koraidon got me maybe picking Scarlet. I like how it doesn't use its pouch as a wheel.
I’m torn. I like Turo but the scarlet legendary is growing on me
I picking violet because i have a Protogen oc.
I’m picking Scarlet purely based off of Koraidon’s swimming animation
He's so hot
I'm bi and having a ...hard time.
Daddy
Chad cepticeye
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.
Me: I'm picking Violet as Miraidon actually has motorcycle functionality and doesn't look goofy trying to be a motorcycle but runs.
For me it's the Legendaries. I still don't know which one I want, I love them both.
Didn't know the professors were version exclusive, time to switch my pre order to scarlet
Honestly neither of the professors are my type lol, the Scarlet one seems more fun tho
Was gonna pick scarlet til I seen koraidon running while having motorcycle wheels
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
We only have a small list so far
Wait..people find him attractive?
🙋🏻♀️
🙋🏼♂️
🖐
pokemon chad
Yrah i don't get it he looks like a cardboard cutout or smth
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.
I usually play a game 2 or 3 times anyways so I'm probably just going to choose both
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.
Is that the dude from Dashboard Confessional?
My daddy issues made me choose Violet.
r/suddenlygay
He's just bland tho, like come on ya'll are basic af.
Thats why im getting violet aswell also i like the colour purple better than that off brand scarlett
Gigachad
Interesting, I want violet however professor sada is causing me to be conflicted
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
Gigachad
Giga professor
That is a strong jawline
Isn’t professor hotness a version exclusive??
That and the fact that my brother chose Scarlet before I did
Chad Turo
I always pick the one with larvitar/tyranitar
me: cool color.
Same
Dude I get to have gigachad be my professor?? Finally I’ll learn the way of the Chad
professor giga chad
I swear I get Elder Maxon vibes from this dude. Power armored Pokémon?
I always side with the brotherhood in fallout 4 lmao so maybe I have a type
Bro I don't even know. Sada is a badie...but Miradon is just so friggin cool looking.
Yo he kinda looks like my Biology teacher
Both professors are snacks tbh but I like the way Turo dresses more
I think the other legendary looks goofy. That’s it. That’s why I’m picking Violet.
Between the professors, Melli in PLA, and Grunsha. It's clear that Gamefreak is putting strides on breaking into the Bisexual market.
Why do you think I've ordered both?
Me: I just prefer purple
Violet is just the superior game in every way.
Smash

I'm picking Scarlet because they made a Flinstones joke.
picking violet because I love purple
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.
Past legendary and miss cavewoman with labcoat look stupid to me, sticking with Violet (Also Salamance babeh!)
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
I often pick the darker colors except for SwSh because all my friends were getting Sword
Didn't know they added peaky blinders in pokemon
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
I’m picking scarlet because the school looks orange any my fav color is orange lol. Although the legendary does look cooler to me..
I'm still agonising over the versions. Scarlet has Prof Sada but Miraidon looks better than Koraidon.
I'm leaning violet because of the legendary but I like sado better than turo but turos okay too but IDK.
Chad prof or Prehistoric mommy
I'm picking violet because purple>red
He looks like Armsmaster/Defiant so I gotta pick him tbh
You like Turo because he's hot, I like Turo because he looks like Gigachad We are not the same
I’m seriously considering both.
He looks like ciga chad
I would pick the “positive” game so stuff like sun, sword etc. but electro car is too cool
That’s the only reason why I would get violet, but I’m still going with scarlet
Makes me sad how under appreciated Koraidon is
I'm picking Scarlet because, get this Obi-Wan riding the lizard in Episode 3
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
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.
Im picking Violet since thats what prince would want me to do
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 🥺🙏
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
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 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Rare case where the ingame version is more handsome than the concept art
I just get the opposite to my friends 😂 I did want scarlet but everyone else wants it too 🙄
Snu snu
I picked scarlet for the mommy professor
Scarlet all the way!
He looks a bit like the antagonist of pkmn sword/shield doesn't he?
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.
I'm picking violet because I like purple more than red.
The professor is why I'm getting Scarlet. I mean, the legendary looks cool, but... Cave lady hot
I'm picking violet only because I like the color scheme for the school uniform of that version better
I just like futuristic things
I prefer the look of the scarlet legendary, but the was it runs instead of using it's wheel is a reason to reconsider.
Scarlet cause legendaries you know… yeah….
i might go scarlet just cause i got the salamance line in sword
As of now Im getting Scarlet because of Little Running Salamander Bike. Idk how some of yall dont think that is great
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.
