  1. Yo Swampert, I’m really happy for you, Imma let you finish but Sceptile had one of the best Mega Evolutions of all time…one of the best Megas of all time!

  2. I felt this was a meme I couldn’t resist doing as soon as I saw Mega Swampert, I hope you all get a laugh out of it.

    • It’s a move animation. The move was also new.

      Gecko’s shoot their tails out to ward away predators trying to attack it, they then retract it back similar to a harpoon mechanism.

      It’s no glitch.

      Reply
        • I know there’s one species of gecko that does retract it’s tail, I just can’t remember what it’s called. However the tail can still writhe about and move once it’s been detached.

          As for the move animation, they could have the tail reappear from a flurry of leaves surrounding the tail, or just have a new one grow back instantly.

  4. I like mega Swampert. It looks like it will gain defenses and attack, but it’s ability makes me wonder about speed…

    Updated this album with More recent screens of Jade Jungle. I’ve changed the HUDS and stuff in battle to modernize it and also changed the text box to a bluish color to resemble the text box in ORAS. :3

    • Bigger arms probably mean more strength which probably mean it can use its strength to swim faster xD
      Also Lightningrod on MSceptile isn’t normal either lol

      Reply
    • Dude Swampert already is a more then athletic swimmer as they can easily tow a large ship
      Now with Mega Evolution causing a extreme growth of upper body strength and plus Swift Swim and most likely it has a slimy layer of film that can allow him to slide/glide on a moist rainy battlefield
      Makes perfect sense

  6. What is planned for nintendo for today at E3? Is anything really planned? I feel like yesterday was most of the info. I can only hope there is more.

    Reply
  7. Is the Primal thingy going to be a fancy Mega Evo involving G/K holding the orbs or will it be a semi permanent form that you can control?

    Reply
      • True… Maybe Team Aqua/Magma can forcefully modify it to make it into some sort of makeshift mega stone which allows full control of G/K until you come in and defeat it

        Reply
        • Well the Orbs are supposed to awaken and are claimed to control them
          nothing to act on their power (well they did go on a rampage)
          So there must be a variable we’re missing
          Maybe GF will cook up something deeper in the Cave or Origin

    • CoD and Pokemon are two completely different types of games though. I mostly play pokemon, but have dabbled in CoD, and they require completely different strategies and knowledge

      Reply
        • depends…go on youtube, some people think pokemon is magic that the devil is using to teach us evil stuff 😉 haha
          Just last night actually, i was playing CoD with my girlfriends brothers and son, and the loser of the match chose the weapons we used in the next match..haha it was awesome, lots of laughing, not taking it too seriously

          Reply
          • well that’s what games are for, having fun. not getting super mad if things don’t go your way.

          • I know i’m going to probably get last place in the pokejungle tournament, cause i’ve never actually competitively battled, but i’m still going to play, cause it’s fun and i’ll learn 😛

    • Rather not have those “Ignorant COD players” playing Pokemon. They whine WAYYYY too much and would probably talk about how “gay” designs look.

      Reply
      • If everything else is gay to them that means he is the minority and if the ‘gays’ are the majority it means we are the normal ones, so technically calling everything gay or ‘special’ makes the person who says it abnormal from others 😀

  8. I don’t understand the chain of events:
    earthbound zero (mother) is released in Japan.
    Because of its success, Nintendo decides to release earthbound 1 in america
    Earthbound (mother 2) ALSO gets excellent reviews.

    But then earthbound 2 (mother 3) is only released in Japan ?

  10. So Pacman and Palutena for Smash?
    I mean, Pacman is cool but he doesn’t seem fitting for Smash. Plus Palutena is OP.
    So
    Palutena > Pacman.

  11. Does anybody ever play the classic RPG called Zenonia on the eShop?
    If Nintendo Life has skill trees and a good story, it will be like that, except in 3D.

  12. Wow, you can invite players into your world locally or via internet in the game Fantasy Life. It’s on my to-buy list along with ORAS now.

  13. So what are your guises fave charcters so far?
    Idk mine, tbh.
    Really like Greninja, but some of the other characters are amazing as well.
    So Greninja will be my main, but I may use some other Newcomers as well.

  17. In the Fortree City scene, you can see that there is a TM yellow pokeball at the bottom right corner. In the original, it’s TM10 Hidden Power, so I wonder if that stays the same.

  18. Sleepy jirachi found this on twitter because he has the CoroCoro apparently. Pretty cool. Hopefully mega metagross in game! It could just be because he’s researching megas but still shouldn’t be overlooked IMO.

  19. “They are both dressed in individual and unique light clothes designed for active movement.” Does this mean no customization?

  20. Group Vote. For the subdivisions of my website, do you guys want them to be Pokemon-based, or just be what they are?

    For example, if I want to cover fangames on my website (which I am), do you want the heading to be something like “Fletchling’s Fangames” or just “Fangame Coverage?”

  23. Guys! I was looking at the oras updated map and I think the battle frontier is not visible because of the gigantic cloud and also above fortree city is some dark island, do you guys know what that is because I do not remember that being there!!

  26. Hmm.. I remembered that Hoenn has a lot of biblical references, so i looked up dark clouds in the bible & a lot of it was things like:

    “The LORD reigns, let the earth rejoice; Let the many islands be glad. Clouds and thick darkness surround Him; Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.”
    “God parted the skies and came down; thick darkness was beneath his feet.”

    It probably has nothing to do w/that dark cloud thing in Hoenn, but i found it a bit interesting :3

    • Apparently:
      the red on her bag on the cycling road was her body, not her bag

      and the “Green bag” she has in the magma/aqua hideout was just the green on her original bag, but from the point of view she was standing in made it look green, because as she walks up the steps it turns out the green turns more yellow.

  52. Looks like the rumours I posted a few weeks ago were true, the release date , diancie sceptile and swampert all got megas shown at e3. The kyogre + groudon “primal” and them becoming larger !!!

    • I think the timing of its reveal was random, but a lot of people expected it to get a mega.

      Specially when Mawile is exclusive to one game and got a mega, Sableye (its counterpart) is exclusive to the other game and gets a mega

      Reply
  55. Going to use Mega Sableye.

    Love it’s normal typing to begin with and i like how it laughs behind the gem :3

    Reply
  56. Now that the Smash demo had so many people and made me sad, Mega Sableye cheered me up. Somewhat. Still ticked that I can’t do it tonight or Saturday now. I feel like crying but I should’ve expected it, I guess. I got a decent side view video, and graphics are amazing, levels, characters, and items are great. :/ For some reason it’s not uploading. I’ll try later.

    Reply
  57. So let me get this straight….when Sableye mega evolves its diamond on it chest detaches and grows in size…so Sableye can hide behind it.

    Honestly guys on a more serious note, unless Mega Sableye has Prankster it may actually not be that good, considering how low it’s stats are

  58. I AM IN LOVE WITH MEGA SABLEYE! THE RUPEE JEWEL THING, HOW IT HIDES BEHIND IT, STANCE CHANGE OMFG!!! This thing is so going on my team along with Mega Swampy <3 <3 <3

    Reply
  59. It is said that Mega Sableye uses the jewel as a powerful defensive tool in battle. From behind the shelter of the jewel, it can readily exploit the opponent’s weaknesses and take advantage of any openings. It is said that the jewel hardens into such strength that no attack can even make a scratch! We’ll bring more details as they come

    So increased defenses and attack maybe?

  64. I came back to see all these new comments and I was like,
    ‘What are you guys talking about? Mega Sableye? Did someone make a really good fanart or something?’
    *scrolls down*
    ‘Holy….THIS IS AWWESOME! LOOK AT THE JEWEL!’

    Reply
  65. If that thing keeps Prankster, it will be so OP. You’re talking about a Prankster user, with likely the highest defenses, with access to priority Recover and priority BURN. Then you add in Knock Off with the buff it got this gen, oh my O_O

    Reply
  66. I JUST REALISED SOMETHING!
    Every time there is a remake, that gen receives evolutions of past Pokemon from the gen that receives the remake. For example, in D/P, Murkrow who debuted in G/S got an evolution and then his games got remakes. In X/Y, Hoenn Pokemon received megas and then that gen got remakes.
    It’s a pattern people!

    Reply
  67. Not even being biased cause its the latest mega to show, but this has to be one of the most creative and wickedly great mega’s they’ve made yet.

    I would have loved to be at that drawing board table when someone suggested “how about we give Sableye a mega, conceal it behind this huge ass diamond, increase ALL of its stats, and make it the perfect counter to EarthenWarrior of Pokejungle”.
