Oh wow! I am super hyped for you @dragoniteo that's awesome! I wish you the best of luck on your journey to reaching a million steps! I have a good feeling it will work! The screen doesn't appear to have had any leakage, and it looks like you kept it in good shape. Is there a battery already inside? If you want to clean inside PLEASE be careful because there's a thin hairline wire that moves the mechanism inside, and it can spring out and be easily lost. The speaker is also attached to the front so you can't open it up completely without disconnecting the wire, and that'll require some soldering (which I don't have time for) I think it'll just be as simple as inserting a CR2032 battery, let me know if it works!

This is great, well done! I am sure this will be very useful to people :)

I picked up some of these back in February from a toy fair. They were cheap, and still sealed! I managed to get Machamp, Voltorb, Koffing, and Articuno.

It's a very tricky one to answer. If it was individual I would say Rowlet or Cyndaquil wins. In most cases I like two out of three starters. With this in mind, I think the original trio wins it for me

I am curious to hear what your favourite Pokémon soundtracks are. These can be video games, anime, movie, or other Pokémon media. I personally collect Pokémon mainline video game albums, as well as video game music in general. My favourite soundtrack is probably HeartGold & SoulSilver, but in terms of physical, it has to be the original Pokémon Red & Green soundtrack. I'm surprised I even have it, I feel very fortunate!

This is something I was planning for my own community when we finally get it up and running, and something I had already experimented with around 2022. I still have all my badges from back then which I plan to use in the new place. So how can I say its not a great idea?

There's really no need to do that just for me, but I appreciate all of the support :)

Tonight actually! Although it's probably too short notice :') Best thing to do is follow the Twitch channel, and see when we go live.

Hey! So, the final date to submit your votes is July 31st, 2025. After that, the votes will be countered and verified, and then shared. The top ten of each region will go through to a grand final in August. More details will be shared then. I will update this thread once that time comes.

You can find it on twitch.tv/JohtoTimes but I took a break for a little while to stream other things. But I'll be getting back to it soon!

Thank you! They've doubled since the last update! Over 300,000 now

Just a quick update to let everyone know that our poll has now reached 150,000 votes! A huge thank you to everyone who has voted so far. Here's some information on the number of people who have participated in each poll by region, and the total number of votes cast, as of June 9th, 2025: Kanto 3594 (21564) Johto 3245 (19470) Hoenn 2937 (17622) Sinnoh 2761 (16566) Unova 2596 (15576) Kalos 2523 (15138) Alola 2507 (15042) Galar 2444 (14664) Paldea 2447 (14682) Total votes: 150324

Yeah it's probably not easy for a lot of people. I know some people voted too quickly and overlooked some of their favourites too. I think they need to carefully consider them!

Thank you! Yes, I was unsure if I should even attempt it, because if the poll doesn't reach far, the results won't give an accurate view. Thankfully, voting is going beyond expectations at the moment, and if the pace of this keeps up, we are going to see some really clear results and insight into which Pokémon people love!

Hello Pokémon fans! Darren here from Johto Times. I am making a post here to bring attention to the Johto Times Favourite Pokémon Poll 2025 edition. The goal is to reach as many Pokémon fans as possible, and determine which Pokémon is the fans’ favourite. Between May 17th and July 31st, 2025, Johto Times will run a poll for each Pokémon generation, from Kanto to Paldea, and invite Pokémon fans to cast their vote on their favourites! Participants can vote for their six favourite Pokémon in each poll. Each poll will run for ten weeks, between May 17th and July 31st, 2025. In August 2025 we will reveal the results of each poll, and the top ten Pokémon from each will move through to the grand final, which will take place later that month. Please spread the word and tell your friends! Update: 22nd May (Clarification): Pokémon which are tied jointly within the top ten will progress to the grand final. For example, if by the end of the poll, two Pokémon have the same number of votes in tenth position, both of these Pokémon will progress through to the grand final. Full details and updates will be available on this link moving forward, please bookmark it for future reference: https://johto.substack.com/p/johto-times-favourite-pokemon-poll-2025 I look forward to hearing your thoughts, and discussion around which Pokémon you will be voting for, or which Pokémon characters you think will win!
