A mini-site for the upcoming puzzle game Pokémon Battle Trozei has now opened for English-speaking audiences, accessible here. The site features a brief rundown of the game’s features as well as screenshots of the gameplay. The download-only title will hit Japan on March 12 for ¥800, with a European launch, under the name Pokémon Link: Battle!, following closely on March 13 for £7.19 (UK) & €7.99 (EU). Americans will be able to play a week after their European counterparts on March 20 for $7.99.
I’d also like to touch upon the game’s name. What is a ‘trozei’ anyways?! I’ll quickly explain: toru (取る) is the Japanese word for “get”. In Japanese the game’s title is ポケモンバトルトローゼ, or Pokémon Battoru Torouze; this roughly translates to Pokémon Battle: Let’s Get! It makes more sense with Japanese grammatical structure, but in English we’d flip it around and say “let’s get Pokémon”. You may be wondering why it’s “torouze” and not “toru” as I brought up, but this is a colloquial verb conjugation in the ‘let’s do’ form with “ze”, an exclamatory, at the end. Hope that made sense 😀

FEATURED THREAD: Future Giveaway: LEGIT Shiny Mew by RichieL1991









I’m also trying to form a defensive team, but this is all I can think of so far! I’m stumped so far, I mean, I cant think of anything to fit with it.
————————————-
Aggron
Chesnaught
Tentacruel
Aegislash?
Mandibuzz? He’s my go-to toxic staller(could go with tentacruel?). You could run an offensive set with Gogoat, too. Hope this helps
You may need (in order of importance):
1. Something that stops the enemies from setting up, fast/prankster and with Taunt (Sableye, Thundurus-I, Infernape) OR eliminates setups with defensive Roar or Whirlwind (Skarmory, roar on Aggron maybe)
2. A Stealth Rock setter to discourage switching (only non-tutor rockers – Tyranitar, Mamoswine, Ferrothorn, Forretress)
3. A fast or scarfed Pokemon to mop up or revenge ko at the end, especially something to eliminate Gliscor (really, this baby will out-stall you) (Infernape, Weavile, Mega Manectric, Aerodactyl, Noivern, Terrakion)
4. Something that is Earthquake immune (Rotom-H, Rotom-W, Talonflame, Gengar, Eelektross, Charizard)
I guess I’ll be getting Yoshi’s New Island, it’s been 3 months without a 3DS game. Supposedly it’s not as bad as people say, although I’m still waiting to hear how the music turned out. Video game music is my my only audible tolerance.
I still have my GBA Yoshi’s Island. I hated that game…. Just ’cause I was young and bad at it… I should play again…. Hm….
So do I, I have the original GBA, the 3DS Ambassador Program version, and soon the Wii U eShop version. I’m a Yoshi nut XD
Wow. I remember when people thought Yoshi was an alternative Pkmn to Dragonite XD
OR you can get some of the games on your list 😉
Maybe that is a game on his list…. Consult the Helix.
You are correct on that one 😉
It said down. Whattt? But Swampert can predict things too, see?
Mega Swampert, Water/Psychic typing? I’ll take it!
XD I love the Water/Ground typing. Gotta avoid those Grass types though.
The only instance when Meganium is a threat is against Swampert…not really XD
Well, I got 1 pokemon bred today, and 1 in the works!! See ya!
Ok then, see ya! And you should use Aegislash!
We only have 9 votes on the round two poll. Please vote if you haven’t already so that we can get our starter sooner 😀
Cap it at 15. 😉
Maybe .-.
Wow. It’s sad that Selfie is the #1 song right now.
Stickin’ with Earthbound classics right now. Here, listen to this masterpiece.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieapBou_3cs
Is it sad that I’ve never played an Earthbound game? I’ve played SSBB w/ Ness and lucas but no mainstream games.
There’s only one Earthbound game state-side, and that’s Earthbound (Mother 2) on the SNES. It’s prequel, Mother, nor it’s sequel, Mother 3 (which would be Earthbound 2) were officially released here. I’m currently playing Earthbound on the Wii U and it’s spectacular, an instant favorite.
Ok. What’s it about?
A boy named Ness witnesses a meteorite crash in his small town, prompting him to visit it and meet a magical bee named Buzz Buzz (I think). This bee has prophetic powers, and when smacked by an old woman and dying, tells Ness that his destiny is to find eight Sanctuary locations around the world, then dies. He then goes to Onett (awesome music by the way), Twoson, Threed, and Fourside, among many other locations to meet new friends and battle hippies and…vomit. It’s an RPG too. It’s a rare game but totally worth it.
Oooohhhh wb Ness? What role does he play?
He’s the leader of the group, he’s the only one who can access these Sanctuaries and fulfill his destiny.
Whoops meant Lucas sorry.
I haven’t encountered him yet…I actually have no idea. I’m excited to see what he does.
Yes. He’s one of the weakest characters in SSBB though, so…. That’s all I know about him.
I guess he can do “PK THUNDER!”, unless that’s Ness XD
What is PK? And I think that’s Ness. Lucas does “PK FREEZE!” I think.
Just looked it up, PK is the original Japanese name for “PSI”, or the psychic powers in Earthbound.
Oooohhhh that’s cool. Whenever I use that Im gonna yell PSI THUNDER! or PSI THUNDERSTORM (thing)
Lucas is the main protagonist of Mother 3.
Should i be glad that i’ve never heard it ? 😀
Yeah. It’s just synthesized music with a girl talking really fast. “But first, lemme take a selfie.” XD
That is not music xD That is trash.
It’s addicting though! Cause people love Selfies (in the dictionary now) and they flock towards it.
Nothing wrong with taking a picture of yourself but only to a certain extent. xD Some people because obsessed with themselves after taking so many pictures.
Agg people I know take other people’s IPhones and hold down the pic button for selfies. 100+ selfies in a min?! Cray cray.
I absolutely hate how things become trending. Do people try to act “cool” by doing what everybody else does? Who the hell cares what others do? Just by doing what you like makes you unique! WHO’S WITH MEH!
I’m glad Pokemon isn’t too trendy and mainstream xD I would hate for the ignorant kids of today’s youth to use pokemon only based on design, complain, complain, complain, call things “Gay” and flock on over to the next cod game.
Those kids are in all honestly entertained by anything that moves.xD
Yes I know! I’m myself and aren’t exactly popular but a lot of people know me and enjoy my presence.
Some friends think i’m adorable cause of my natural awkwardness xD
Are these friends female?
Yes. xD
Ahhhh… That’s good.
Ah, mainstream media. So predictable how many teenagers like myself swarm towards it XD
@BigGuyI:disqus I just remembered to recommend a Swmapert on your team for any game. Water/Ground bby!
I have one that knows Curse and Avalanche
I literally have every Ground Type Competitively bred
Wow. I love Swampert. Great Pkmn. Best starter.
I’d use mine more often but I often have to deal with Mega Venusuar and Ferrothorn and Trevenant
That’s true.
and besides Seismitoad’s my Water/Ground Main
Ahhh he’s good as well.
Haha amazing! Congrats! If I had Mr. Mime and Xerneas EV/IV trained than I’d have every fairy ready for competitive
The only Ground Types I can’t really use is Nincada and Wormadam Sandy Cloak
Sadly these Dirt Bugs are useless
you ever consider using Trapinch competitively? Has large base attack and can work in a trick room set.
AMAZING LOL. I didn’t know your score caps at 999. The extra big ball of yarn at the end pushed it pass 1,000
http://s11.postimg.org/ugxjegr9v/unnamed.jpg
Those are some premium Pokepuffs! O_O
I screamed when I unlocked them XD I have like 3 of them left
Do they give an entire heart of friendship instantly?
I believe so. Cause I’ve only used 1, and it made Diancie really happy and raised its friendship.
Oh cool, that’s an incentive to play the mini-game I suppose.
Dem shinies.
O_O I don’t Pokémon-Amie at all. I’m a bad trainer…. Actually, my Pkmn love me outside o’ that.
haha!! I like to take hold of all of what the game has to offer so I don’t get bored. I love the Amie games.
I’m going to post one of the funniest things you will see ever in your life soon. XDDD
My Yearbook picture? Not cool.
With great posts comes great responsibility

AND https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1gtAntw-9zgT0SHNd7OE4ACbJHgKuoY2fbFbx3OR236A/viewform
If you just got on or haven’t voted already. Pls vote :3 only once. I’m hoping we get the results really soon.
Dat Yveltal was so beautiful I cried
Just wait til Pokeminion sees this 😀
No…He will be dead by then
Oh just realized that’s Xerneas’s face. I thought it was a building.
xD
Darn, Chirpea didn’t make it through the first round!
It got 5 votes. The Lowest was 4 and the highest was 8. Made a round two because they tied.
It’s ok. If it makes you feel better, I voted for it! (Not really. I actually didn’t get time to vote. Also, if it was skinnier I think it’d be better.)
No it’s not even mine, I just came up with the names. XD
Oh that’s right…. Anyways, I kept picturing a green leaf-for-wings Fletchling. That would’ve been cool.
It was GGG’s submission
Yveltal looks really bad a**.
That rock pan-monkey is really sweet.
And both grass starters are really cool as well – I went for the little elephant one lol.
They made a poison one as well xD I loved the monkeys but they were never really usable IMO.
I love the electric one. You have a link to the poison one?
and I sweeped before with Simipour
Pansurge and Simisurge! I would have loved those.
OMG LOOK at the ones Noivern posted above!! They’re awesome!!
Here is the Poison one: http://24.media.tumblr.com/3164703aef84505d917c19b8231cf87b/tumblr_n1zr9mWQnf1rw7u8ro1_1280.png
Then i found this.. http://25.media.tumblr.com/cb5b26a81f887ac1fde7a8f345febf51/tumblr_n1zrfegrtf1rw7u8ro1_1280.png
Whoever made these is amazing xD
OMGGGGG THEY’RE SICK!!!
Right.xD I would have SO used the Electric one.
Are you guys allowed to put them in the fan game??
I don’t think so :/ Nobody from PJN made them. We could always make our own though 😀
Wow. Get Star was useful for once!
That trailer was beautiful!
I love serious Diancie. Just as much as I love serious Meloetta!
Awww noooo! Serena’s hurt (I think) and got dirt all over her! 🙁
I still haven’t seen Get.xD Serious Diancie is scary.
She’s cute.
What is Diancie’s Signature Move is a Rock Type move because the Eternal Floette’s Signature move is a Fairy Type move?
Diamond Storm
Light of Ruin?
Yep. With massive recoil.
It is a rock type move.
And physical unfortunately, but its hit everything on the field and probably has the most beautiful animation for a move. it’s like a Stone Edge with better accuracy that hits everything.
lights of ruin is special, 140 bp, and has the largest recoil. you KO yourself after 2-3 uses of it.
That’s what I said
GG RIO!
GG TC! I possibly could have won if I didn’t use Aura Sphere ._.
Predicting the switch?
No I was being safe because it would have done neutral damage rather than not very effective
Forgot about Bulletproof? XP
Yup XD didnt know aura sphere was a ball/bomb move! Blastoise would then get rid of Jawnus & Shea
Don’t forget Swagold! 😛
Oh yeah! XP Then Shao lee would clean that up
I wonder how’d y’all would battle if you couldn’t substitute your Pokemon willynilly
Switching is a main component of competitive battling…
Yeah but it just plain annoying by the fifth switch
I barely switch…
You should switch more 😛 When your Pokemon is at a disadvantage, switch to something that can take the hit and force fear into the opponent 😀
I don’t roll that way I rather stick it out and fight!
Well then just don’t get mad at others who battle that way, because that’s just a part of competitive battling 🙂
I know but there should be a limit on switching
That would be interesting!
I would just laugh to see how many people would get pissed off if they couldn’t withdraw every other turn
Ever read comments when they banned Kangaskhanite from Showdown they were soo pissed
I don’t battle on Showdown 😛 I like the official games and battling you all 😀
Same here I only use Showdown to Test Teams and do other Mono Teams
and some Gimick teams
All Snake Pokemon
all Cat Pokemon
….They didn’t last long
Well, you can use Stealth Rocks/Spikes to discourage switching, or even Mean Look/Block/trapping move like Sand Tomb to stop it…
Yeah but those cost turns
Hmm…
Well, so does any switching. Think of Stealth Rock as a fair trade for the switching you don’t do. If the opponent switches about 3-4 times, Stealth Rock or 1 layer of Spikes probably did as much damage as 1 attack already. If the opponent used Rapid Spin on your rocks or 1 spikes, you got back 1 turn.
Sand Tomb (and similar moves) also does damage over time while the opponent is locked, so I think that’s more worth it than Mean Look. You can also try Pursuit to “trap” Ghosts since they can switch out of anything.
Battle meh bby ;-;
So this is what was SOOOOO hilarious on Showdown. Make sure you organize by “ascending” not “descending” to get the whole story in order! xDDDDDD Oh, and disregard the imgur account name, didn’t want to make a real one.

Goodnight Kevin. Dream of Munna

So, with 14 votes so far. @BigGuyI:disqus ‘s Sproot is winning.
*squee*
So what’s with the Twitch people’s “Guys, we need to milk Whitney!” and “We need to beat Misty!”? Also, they’re attempting to switch Lazergator to the back off their party so they can train their level 15 guys XD
ah i see now
and its just twitch being perverts -__-
Poke…you cannot fight the sheer flood of stupidity that this has evolved into
Just accept it
Yeah…. All of the trolls are trying to kill Lazergator.
I believe Lazergator is their only hope
Well training the other dudes is actually a good idea…
NEW ARTICLE. AS I PREDICTED. @shinyxatu:disqus
commented first.
Tally Ho!
Wow. He lied to our faces…. XD “I’m going to ummmm…. homework! Yeah, um, homework!” XD Hah no jk. But the Xatu predicted it again.
I have a pretty cool idea for the ghost gym :3 (although it doesnt really have any trainers right now…but i have an idea where they can go)
Tell us on the new article! 🙂
I feel like Game Freak should do something about the Hidden Abilities being Near Impossible to acquire without some sort of hacking(minus the small amount available via hordes or friend safari) Closing the Dream World for gen 5 might have been more in preperation for X and Y, as well as the Shutdown of DS wifi in May, but it Doesn’t Help when Gen 6 has no Equivalent to it…. I was starting to get into the metagame when I realized that Hidden Abilities are such a big part of it yet Impossible to get for the pokemon not in the kalosdex or Friend Safari that were obtainible… one solution would be to make it that a Male Hidden ability Kecleon with Protean could make Protean Froakie with a Female Greninja…
Instead they make another Useless Website……
