Snoop Lion <3 Pokémon

Born again rapper Snoop Lion (also known as Snoop Dogg, or Snoopzilla) has released his new single and accompanying video Get Away. In a slightly odd move, the video features heavy references and throwback to Pokémon Red and Blue versions.

In the video a miniaturised Snoop walks—shuffles?—around a small town and eventually enters battle with a trainer known as Major Lazer. The animation itself gets the original GameBoy Pokémon game style down to a T, and it’s quite fun to relive the memories outside of the tiny, tiny GameBoy screen. Sort of. There’s not really a huge amount to say other than enjoy the music (if you’re in to that sort of stuff), and enjoy the accompanying animation!

  3. Clocking out for tonight, Goodnight everyone.
    I liked how there was about 5-10 comments out of the 1700 comments regarding Snoop Pyroar and the article.

    • I use Adamant myself and sometimes I feel that the damage is just exact for the +0 2 hit return to one shot some squishies. (Just a reference: I actually have 2 kangas, both adamant, the difference is one has fake out, sucker punch and brick break for doubles support and the other is the standard power-up punch set. I run max speed ev’s on the standard on and max hp ev’s on the support one.)

      • OK, I was going to do Adamant with Return, Power-Up Punch, Sucker Punch, and Aerial Ace, and I saw a lot on the GTS Jolly with 5IVs, and only one Adamant. Adamant was my original plan, but then I started doubting myself.

          • I think my “standard” Kanga had something similar but with Earthquake instead of Aerial Ace. Even if it hits only once, it’ll be better than repeatedly hitting non-flying rocks and steels with Power-up Punch. Also, Return with STAB is better than Aerial Ace in most cases. An alternative to Earthquake (or Aerial Ace) is Crunch, and this is specifically for beating flying or levitating ghosts that don’t attack at first.

          • The reason that I put on Aerial Ace was in case of going against a Fighting-type. Should I keep Sucker Punch?

          • Yeah, Kanga is usually not fast enough to handle many revenge switch-ins, so Sucker Punch is necessary.

            Ok I guess the problem with fighting types is that Sucker Punch does half damage to them, and you should be switching out rather than attempt Aerial Ace anyway, unless you know Kangaskhan is faster than the fighting-type.

            In which case the following calculation applies:

            Return has a base 102 power at max happiness. With Kanga’s STAB, it’s equivalent to 153 power.

            Aerial Ace has a base 60 power. At 2x super effective against fighting, it’ll be only at effective 120 power.

            This makes Return better than Aerial Ace in most cases except the occasional Breloom (which is slower, and gets one-shot by Parental Bond Return anyway unless it’s super defensive or Substitute) and Virizion (which is, I think, faster than Kanga anyway and it should not be Sucker Punched anyway) and the Double Team/Minimize user.

            What if you’re facing Lucario? Well, you should be using Power-up Punch or Earthquake on it over Return or Aerial Ace anyway.

  5. My first Kanga hatch was Adamant, but IV guy only talks about Speed. should I use it or attempt to IV breed even though I have no idea how?

  6. Alright everybody…I need some help. I’ve arranged an X & Y tournament for my college on Saturday where everybody has to use all Pokémon of the same type. My team is Normal, and Mega Kangaskhan is my star player. But I just found out that Mega Kangaskhan is banned and now I can’t use it.

    Does anybody have a HA Starly or Whismur with good nature/IVs? Please?
