make it happen gen 7. DONT MAKE US WAIT LIKE YOU DID WITH B/W
just do it gen 7
Gen 8 😀 They will do that
NUUUU
seriously though. if i have to wait 2 gens to get them to remake DP i will be angry!
They did for Hoenn
Wynaut Sinnoh?
because i want a 3D distortion world ASAP!
It might be for the better
If Gen 7 is for 3DS most likely The remake will be on Gen 8
Because They won’t do A remake on the same console as before
Kanto remake was Gameboy Advanced
Johto was DS
Hoenn 3DS
i hope not. by then Nintendo will have a new handheld and hopefully it will be on there (but again. unova was out on DS not 3DS. dang unova gotta ruin everything)
I liked Unova ;~;
im just joking. i like it too.
Because they were doing the region reamkes in order. EX: FRLG -> HGSS -> ORAS -> Best region ever gets even better.
I’m kinda doing a Rom of Diamond
so far
Grotle
Buizle
Shinx
I dont wanna play platinum right now cuz i just finished it a few weeks ago 🙁
I tried replaying platinum but then my 3ds ran out of battery So I just stopped XD
0.o well that must of been a fun play through
Well I was on vacation and even though i had it closed it ran out of battery on the plane XD
oh :3
Celestial? Natsu will get a big head when he sees this! XD Shouldn’t it be Spacial instead tho?
yeah thats what i was thinking
😡 i love you. thank you for bringing this into my life.
:O MAKE IT HAPPEN!!! YES LAWD!
Wait a second, ORAS are remaes of gen 3
a triangle has 3 sides.
Potatoes are brown.
HALF-LIFE 3 CONFURMED
Potatoes can also be white

Could this be unovas way of speaking out
Random =/= Funny
Big ol booty = life
Good luck to you all and may the hax be ever in your favor!

Focus miss @ work
That’s really unlucky. I have a similar experience. Watch this battle and count how many times my team miss. Watch it til the end for the twist.
4GDW-WWWW-WWW5-K96X
I just finished watching Death Note. ALL OF DEATH NOTE. Not an episode, not two episodes, ALL OF IT. It is the Hunger Games of anime.
In term of popularity? Because Death Note is all about logic and schemes, unlike Hunger Games which is action and drama.
Not in popularity, but in quality. Plus, someone also likened cheering on Kira when he kills victims is like cheering for tributes to die in THG.
The ending was satisfying as hell.
Most people stop after (Not going to say the name of the character) dies D:
Ug Zorua Stop being so difficult
12 boxes no shiny
@movingg:disqus Could you maybe change my group? I’m not going to be avalible aguest 1 to 13th
Wait. Nevermind.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xg1wb1Y5qbY I agree with this list o_o
Mega Huntail (Water/Dark) and Gorebyss (Water/Fairy) would be awesome.
Not another Water/Dark. D:
Mega Gyarados shouldn’t have been Water/Dark in the first place >.>
water/dragon
^ BINGO.
Is Altaria on that list?
Is Altaria water type?
Well it makes me wet, does that count?
Uh… Altaria doesn’t learn Soak. :3
Water Pokemon. Altaria is not water typed o_o
Altaria is blue…
Yo listen up here’s a story
About a little guy that lives in a blue world
And all day and all night and everything he sees
Is just blue like him inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window
And a blue corvette
And everything is blue for him and himself
And everybody around
‘Cause he ain’t got nobody to listen to
I listened to that song when breeding for Swagold <3333333333
Yes Swagblue da ba dee da ba die…
I only agree with Seismitoad
and the Huntail getting dark but like Milotic Gorebyss has nothing to do with fairies and only saying because its pretty and pink
(Gorebyss don’t get Dazzling Gleam)
Not yet. They appear very fairy like in appearance to me. Especially when you compare them to a Pokemon like Granbull which was retyped to fairy.
Well Granbull is a Cu Sith which is literally a Fairy Dog which is a Mythological Creature in Celtic Myth
Yes but Snubull could pass for fairy. Granbull could not. It appears to be either Fighting or Dark typed appearance wise.
I always thought Granbull was a Dark type xD
Same here xD I used to love Snubull in the Pokemon movie cause he was a jerk but was also funny looking. Although, it IS capable of learning dark typed moves.
My Mother threw away my Snubull plush when i was young
That’s awful q.q I wish I had a snubull plush. I had a similar situation. My sisters would hide my Pikachu all the time.
Not the point i’m saying
Snubull and Granbull have ties to be a fairy while Milotic and Gorebyss don’t
Just because it doesn’t get it now doesn’t mean it won’t. Hint, Shiftry is getting Leaf Blade in ORAS. Pokemon are confirmed to now be capable of getting new moves that they didn’t have in XY
1 i don’t want to talk to you right now
and 2 we already got like 16 Hoenn Megas and we don’t need more
and 3 if they were going to do so they would’ve done it already
(and besides knowing of Dazzling Gleam’s properties you’d think a water creature’s scales could magically shine but they don’t)
1. Rood.
2. Just because we already have 16 Hoenn megas does not mean we will get more. These are Hoenn remakes for a reason.
3. If they were planning on updating movesets, then they would not have planned it. Shiftry is enough proof. He should have had Leaf Blade since Gen 3 tbh.
1 i have my reasons
2 its getting painfully obvious that Hoenn’s getting all the attention
3 game footage is not final, so Shiftry may or may not get Leaf Blade (and besides it was Grovyle’s signature attack until gen 4)
1. It’s a HOENN REMAKE. IT MAKES SENSE.
2. Game Footage might not be final, but they put emphasis on his Shiftry. I don’t that would be an error.
1) Why?
2) Hoenn games, Hoenn Megas, MOAR HOENN
3) That logic is flawed. If they were going to give Shiftry Leaf Blade, they would’ve given it in X/Y <<<< Your logic applied, but didn't happen till ORAS
tc, i have a question do you have any of the following?
Modest rotom
Jolly mienfoo/shao with knockoff
adamant bisharp
I have a Modest Rotom on that list! Haven’t gotten to the other two yet xD
Perfect IVs too
0_0 may i have that rotom?
PM 😀
ok
Doesn’t mean anything.
Plus it could get in ORAS. GF updates movepools when necessary.
NO Milotic?
Not my list but honestly, Milotic DOES get a lot of mention and it’s likely to get a mega. I think the purpose of this list was to give Pokemon that are looked at less consideration.
I honestly think Huntail AND Gorebyss should be Water/Dark
Gorebyss as a Water/Dark typed Pokemon would not make any sense.
Sapphire:Although GOREBYSS is the very picture of elegance and beauty while swimming, it is also cruel. When it spots prey, this POKéMON inserts its thin mouth into the prey’s body and drains the prey of its body fluids. Gorebyss is evil 😉
Yes but they are alt evos for a reason. I don’t see Beautifly getting a Dark typed Mega evolution any time soon.
I was joking XD I agree,Gorebyss shouldn’t be water/dark typed. :3
I found a dragalge in my PC
it was perfect.
except it didnt have toxic spikes
;.;
I love Dragalge design wise but it’s stats are kind of crappy so it’s difficult to use q.q
I got a flawless Chinchou from WT
but has Illuminate its female so no Breeding with other water types and its in a Dark Ball
Female means you can breed with other water types
but all i’ll get is other Chinchous
and they ain’t my style
If possible, I want Mega Nidoking, and its type become Dragon/Poison. ;~;
Not sure about the typing but Yes. I would also like a Mega Nidoking.
But it’s a Mammal
and do not take away Nidoking’s Ground Typing!
Fairy/Poison would be the obvs Mega typing
don’t you dare say that
Mega NidoQueen
Fairy/ Poison
so Nidoqueen Fairy Poision
Nidoking Dragon Poision
symbolism?
but they’re Rabbit/porcupine/gorillas
Not a Dragon nor a Fairy
Rhino too
yeah…..
They can breathe fire, shoot lightning and ice beams, spew toxic sludge. They’re dragons. :3
so can Chansey but she ain’t a dragon
You don’t know that. 😮
Uh yeah i do
Chansey can learn
Flamethrower
Fire Blast
incinerate
Thunderbolt
Thunder
charge beam
wild charge
ice beam
and blizzard
I know it learns those moves… I was saying we don’t know if it’s a dragon or not. It could be secret a dragon.
it ain’t a dragon
its a Poison/Ground
don’t take it away from me
are legendaries allowed in the tourney? i wanna try out dialga
Well some are, but Dialga is banned
which ones are allowed?
Cant Remember Moing needs to post that updated list of rules
Moving*
I’d assume it’d be the standard Battle Tower etc rules when it comes to legendaries
But not for me to decide
Exactly that
No. All Battle Spot banned legends are banned.
Is Diancie Banned?
All event pokemon are banned.
Yay!
So no stuff like lando, suicune, etc?
That isn’t banned on Battle Spot, so no.
ah gotcha
All legends should be banned. Notice the period
I agree.
*cough* Heatran *cough*
Cresselia :'( Landorus :'(
:<
I’ll ban battle spot safe legends if GF bans them. Don’t see why legends should be banned when there are a few megas better than them lol
Keyword word is “few”
Mega Pokemon are optional and don’t necessarily have to mega in battle. Legends are OP af right off the bat
They start out with that speed stat
They’re called Legendary for a reason :'(
Technically speaking, though, Psuedo-Legendaries should be banned as well by that logic…
But they are normal Pokemon <3
But they have the same power as most basic legendaries.
Tell that to Landorus :'(
It is just a 600 BST Legend with just the right Stat placement.
Exactly why legendary :'(
But Garchomp and the other Psuedos are also 600 BST with different stat placement. Any of them could be as “overpowered” as Landorus, just in different ways.
But in battle they really aren’t 🙁 Lando on the other hand is too good
He has a point xD
Plus Every Legendary that is able to be used in this tourney is not Kalos bred
You don’t have to use Kalos bred
should be born and raised in Kalos
Just got back from a surprise visit to Discovery Cove :3
I got to kiss and ride on a dolphin omfg it was the best
Now, lemme get this straight. Volcarona, Zorua/Zoroark and Rotom are legendaries or not?
And pseudo/semi-pseudo (Dragonite, Tyranitar, etc.) don’t count as legends either (in competitive)? Just need to know for the Poke Games :))
No legendaries evolve so those first 3 are not legends (im iffy about rotom though)
They do not count as legends. I was just making a little point towards the logic of legends.
Nope not Legendaries
My dream is to ride a dolphin/hang out with them.
One day. One day…
ill send u pics sistah 😉
What do you think of a Youtube channel for Pika News Network?
Also, “I got to kiss and ride on a dolphin omfg it was the best” Dolphins are known to do THINGS to people q.q
you dirty bastard 😉
but i love u anyways :3
Lemme respond to you someplace more private. Got a Chatango?
Yup
Mine’s DaDicie. PM me when you can 🙂
Nice! Dolphin riding sounds just as fun as horse back riding. 😀
As odd as GF makes it seem, Volcarona, Zoroark, and Rotom, no matter how amazing they are, aren’t legendary. :'(
Volcarona is Pseudo, others are regular xD
Volcarona is not a Psuedo-legendary. Sadly ;(
Let me guess. Chesnaught’s bulletproof is unreleased.
nope it can be found in friend safari
really!?
yep! all kanto and kalos starters have a chance of thir hidden ability to be found in the friend safrai if quiladin is there
Its realized its in the Friend Safaris
Released
no
just Contrary Serperior
And Leaf Guard Chikorita
i don’t care bout that
Who said have to care about that?
nobody i’m just bummed
Serebii lists all the abilities that are released or unreleased and how to get them.
The thing that pisses me off about legendaries is that more often than not they’re hacked to have perfect IVs =/ It’s ridiculous.
agreed
i’m sick of cheaters getting they’re way
That’s a good point. You can actually get proper IV Bred Psuedo Legends. Meanwhile Legends huehuehue I hacked it
I get so happy when i see that a legendary i have has a good nature
i soft reset like 20 something times for an Adamant Groudon but still gets beaten
i have a shiny adamant groudon from SS!
T_T
sorry. that probably wasnt the best thing to say….
let me guess it has great IVs too huh
no actually
Yup Legendaries you mainly just have to get a good nature, it is nearly impossible to get Perfect IVS and good nature
When they have Hp fire/ice Knock Off Superpower and perfect IVs ugh…..
Preach!!!
Quiz time! What are the 2 TRUE signature moves? (Learned only by 1 Pokemon, can’t be Sketched.)
Chatter is one
Correct, and the other? :3
Transform
and chatter
Transform is not one.
Transform Smeargle is awesome xD
so many times imprison and transform…………..
https://twitter.com/SoulSurVGC/status/469583192903913472
LMAO XDDDD
Mew can learn Transform.
T_T
Glaciate is one right? and chatter
Glaciate can be sketched. It’s not the answer.
oh
Chatter and Struggle (that counts as a move).
Also correct. I didn’t count Struggle as a move, but technically, you’re right.
Struggle can be used by every Pokemon, so technically, he is wrong.. Sorry for being a Debby Downer lol
I was gonna say that, but I decided not to :3
Chatter and Sketch :3
Correct!
I am king of the world!
I will quote you on this when the day comes.
Hey, I need to get back to you about a Pika News Network YouTube account. Got a Chatango?
Chatter
Struggle
Did you get this from Showdowns Questions?
Nope, I was reading on Chatter because I’m MMing for Chatot.
Oh
We should have an automobile pokémon that can learn Transform and Rollout. :3
XD
Gamefreak, don’t give shiny Pokemon the color green so often. Green is not a creative color.
lets see….
Espeon
Tangrowth
thats all i know
Zubat,Muk,Dragonite,Machamp,Tauros,Druddigon,Stantler,Scizor,Venusaur etc.
nor Brown
always just magenta or blue
They need to give more of that light blue color on Shiny Zorua
*I’m looking at you neon green Espeon >:(*
Depends on the shade of green though. Shiny Espeon looks sick (in a good way)!
Disapprove.
I kid, better in XY, but no. Gold/blue or no.
And nobody got the reference for the last sentence…
I did! 😀
Dont hug me man! im scared!
gen 2 gets lots of pink though!
Igneous don’t answer this please
QUIZ!
What are the only two pokemon that Get Same Attack Bonus From Explosion
Lickitung and Lickilicki.
No!
Dang. Well, I’ve got nothing =/
lickitung and lickylicky XD
Same Type* Advantage Bonus
Yea That Sorry
Lickylicky and Smeargle.
Close
No wait you are RIGHT 😀
XD Sorry I read Lickitung some how
It’s all cool.
smeargle!?
I said two pokemon
and someother pokemon?
Can I just get my 2 cents in.
I don’t really have a problem with the minor legendaries, as most of them are underwhelming. The only ones that may be troublesome are Landorus and Thundrus.
Plus banning Regice and allowing things like Speed Boost Blaziken is equally as ridiculous
i’ll never forget the time a jackass spammed Sky Drop on me
couldn’t do a thing because it was scarfed
Shoulda had a flying type or heavy Pokemon xD
The guy already took out Mamoswine….
+1 for you cuz you mentioned landorus-i xD
Those genies are crazy good….and then there’s Tornadus…which is just well…ugghh
The other two are fine. Lando-i doesn’t really have any “True” counter
Don’t Forget Heatran
Heatran is the threat among all threats
See how subjective this can be?
Heatran is too easy to handle
Hardly
*Surf*
anyone got a shuckle with stealth rock?
I’m not really concerned about people here bringing legendaries, because most of us don’t anyways. I’m just concerned of the entrants that are barely seen here bringing legendaries. xD Like seriously, who are you guys? xD
I may bring walls, but I never use legends xD
*cough* Lumineon *cough*
Your walls are legendary. #Band
Hey hey hey Chico
Guess where I went today?
And guess what I did today?
😀
HINT: dooooolphins
Discovery Cove? (I saw your comment :3)
Have fun!? 😛
omfg chico it was the time of my life
and it was a surprise from my parents :DDDD
That’s awesome! It was such a nice day out, too! No rain and 80 degree weather. 😉
I would use the allowed legends if I can get them with good/decent IVs, otherwise i wouldn’t bother.
Exactly xD You can’t IV breed them 🙁
RNG abuse though D:
I know but it doesn’t feel right to me even if I know how to 🙁 Many people don’t so it won’t be fair 🙁
Is it bad that i would if i knew how..? It would make some teams work better and such. Idk, this legend debate is like the use your favorite poke debate
LOL xD No I can understand 🙂 It’s just ever since I started competitive, I just never feel good about using “legends” 😛 and when I mean legends I mean stuff with 600 BST or greater. Including pseudo-legends xD
I don’t use Psuedo’s either D: Except Mega Metagross
You used to use Garchomp 😛
And then I stopped
And I used Zelgius xD That’s why he’s locked away :p
Ahh i see 🙂 To me, legends are just another poke to be used. Although, i rarely would use them xD theyre just another option in team building and if they work on a person’s team then good for them!
Even including M-Tyra :O
Use them, but don’t hack them
True true 🙂
Lol Group Lavender is the only Group where I know everyone
And Drifveil
Lmfao. Just to point a few out… I’ve never seen the usernames rawbread or premiertrainer. xD Don’t bring legends!! D:< lmao
I dont understand why Stealth Rocks Doesn’t pop and Air ballon
and= an
My typos today are so real
I just got a 6IV Nidoran female thorugh trade. I want to breed for a shiny Nidoran male after I’m done with Chatot, even though I already have a shiny Nidoking through horde.
I already know my next Hunt after Chatot
Zorua* XD
I hate when people say “Hoenn Is getting too many megas”
UM IT IS A HOENN REMAKE WE ARE GONNA GET NEW MEGAS IN HOENN
Well Hoenn is on par with Kanto with the number of Megas.
And in X/Y, we got ALL MEGAS EXCEPT THOSE THAT ARE KALOSIAN.
no Unova or Kalos
and Unova D:
Maybe when Unova remake comes they will release 30 Unova megas
Maybe Hoenn should stop having so many good Pokemon. Oh wait, it can’t.
^This
But that ONE Pokemon from Hoenn is the WORST. q.q Guess.
Milotic?
Bidoof.
None
Skitty/Delcatty.
That Barboach
Relicanth? Huntail? Luvdisc?
Junichi’s favorite region
Kanto = 12
Johto = 5
Hoenn = 14
Sinnoh = 3
Unova = 0
Kalos = 1
This includes all the unreleased one and those in ORAS
My tentacruel’s characteristic is “likes to run”
Running around and terrorizing Tokyo o_o
It has no legs Noivern -_-
It can run on tentacools.
im not sure about that
Have you seen Squidward run?
*incoming Iggy Azalea comment*
It’s the realist Tentacruel?
You rang?
Yeah, pizza for delivery please.
Would you like Milotic meat toppings or Altaria meat toppings?
Milotic meat? 0.0 No thanks. Forget the order, I don’t condone the consumption of Milotic. ;-; lmao
But you’re fine with Altaria meat? You get bonus cotton cloud candy. :3

What are the Tentcool doing?
“Look at our cool Flashlights”
See all that smoke? It was a rave 😮 they thought they were Cool.
dat ep was 2 sp00ky 4 me.
*adds techno music*
