That awkward moment when everyone forgets that Get TV is a thing.
No new episode today
No new episode ever. They’re never gonna release any news ever again. :I
I really dislike that show… I honestly do
Moving is sick, I don’t care(who does).They won’t have anything. If they do we’ll get a article up and a video from youtube.
Omg, I read that as “Moving is sick and I don’t care”. Whoops. 0.o
ME TOO XD
Me too.
MAYBE I DON’T???????
He is D:
Now how are we supposed to get our rules
We need them since we are starting in less than 5 days
Yeah, I’ll have to talk to him one-on-one and write the article with my filthy bare hands if it comes to it.
Go wash your hands. >:(
I didn’t forget. I just didn’t say anything.
I think Mega Sharpedo Or Camerupt will be main Mega in ORAS
My main would be Mega Swampert! 😉
Baom – Before Any Other Mega
Bad guessers. The worst Pokemon in Hoenn is Bad Egg D:
Your a bad egg >:(
2ReBeLlIoUs4U
Or those “??????????” thing.
Bad Egg is known to be Bad 😮
Bad Egg>Skitty,Delcatty
Not true. Mega Delcatty will rise and destroy all.
that killed my Sapphire….
Cause you gamesharked it 😮
No my Brother used it
“It has no legs Noivern -_-” – Lando
http://i.imgur.com/lp2srNM.png
Why you gotta be so Crueeeelll?
Why did you make this monstrosity? ;-;
You used to be so Cool. q.q
http://guidesarchive.ign.com/guides/12045/images/tentacool.gif
Had I never started competitive battling, I never would have guessed that Tentacruel is a good Pokemon. xD
It’s so menacing looking though xD
After checking
I got 7 Perfect Zoruas 😀
4 egg moves
Anyone want a Perfect Zorua with 4 egg moves?
Me,but I can’t trade today D: Can you give me one tomorrow? :3
Yea
ME’
Are you Online?
Yea
Mega Delcatty should be Normal/Fairy
Mega Delcatty, Mega Milotic and Mega Altaria should be best friends.
Don’t forget Mega Gorebyss!
Don’t let Earthen see this comment. :I xDD
“Too many megas for Hoenn.” – I mean, does he not want Mega Camerupt or Mega Flygon? q.q
=_=
ABORT MISSION!
Or we can Kidnap him and torture him with Fairies
Just so easy to mess with me huh
With Pixilate 😀
Omg. YESSSSS!!!! Delcatty would be useful if her mega would be fairy with pixilate :3
Pixilated Hyper Voice and Return :3
^^^Yes XD I would use one if it will get mega.lol. I never used Delcatty because it is useless :(.
Right?? Nomalize is a horrible ability to have /:
T_T
Cat
not Fairy
also Moon Stone
Moon Stone. Moonblast. Faries are associated with the moon. Just saying.
😮 So does Nidoking. Is Nidoking a Fairy? Fairy/Poison? Learns Moon Blasts? Sheer Force Life Orb Moon Blast? 😮 : o
Appearance matters as well. Fairy/Poison Nidoking would just be ridiculous. Plus Nidoking can’t learn moonblast.
Snubbull. 😮
Yeah, Nidoking should just be Poison/Ground or Poison/Dragon.
Snubull looks like a fairy. Granbull looks like a dark or fighting Pokemon ._.
its kinda poorly stated with the whole Fairy Moon thing
also just because its called a Moon Stone doesn’t mean its from the Moon
its a stone as black as the night sky
and get 200 BST added seriously it’s BST is 380 for an evolved pokemon 🙁
Mega Flygon should be Ground/Fairy. It’s the spirit of the desert. Spirit = Fairy…or ghost.
I want Dragon/Bug to be honest.
I would prefer Fairy, because that makes it seem more majestic to me.
No D: I like Ground/Dragon with Levitate >.> i don’t want bug either, despite how much sense it makes.
Ground/Dragon/Bug/Fairy with levitate :3
O.k now you’re just trying to screw with me
But if you think about it, Fairies are you friends. They destroy Sableye.
But they still give me so much stress
Bye Guys 😀 See you in about 2-3 hours
Bye :3
See ya!
I really hope Mega Minun is Electric/Fairy 🙁 I remember when XY came out and people thought they were, but then they weren’t 🙁
*and Mega Plusle 😉
Never will they work
can’t have two megas
They’re two separate Pokemon.
Mega Latis
Mega Charizards
Why not? You give Plusle or Minun and Mega Evolution, you gotta do it for the other, too imo.
No i’m saying you cannot have them both at the same time
Multi Battle
I dislike you with great intensity
Hoenn introduced double battles, didn’t they?
One Mega during a battle, except Multi xD
How could I forget that? =/ LOL
They’re 2 separate pokemon + I use Plusle in singles without Minun and it’s a beast ;3
I hope they have Hold Hands and a new ability that is related to happiness. 😮
So pretty much you think everything should be part fairy.
Except you. Normal/Poison
You’re Normal/Hoe
http://www.majhost.com/gallery/ap3000/random/screen_shot_2010-02-06_at_5.27.53_pm.png
FU-SION. HA!
Marvel at the cuteness :3 their power level will be over 9000 (just went there)
MewMew!
Hey Noivern! 😀 Mega Metagross is going to be a nightmare when Steven uses it xD
I agree xD I hope the NPCs are smarter. Not quite Institute/Maison Level but somewhere in between.
and then Ground comes in and 1HKO’s Them
and then Ludicolo comes in and sweeps the ground type. Pointless scenarios to defeat them are pointless.
i guess that was pretty much pointless
Like you guys would let me ever have anything
I mean, You do it a lot though. o.o Someone is happy about something and then you try to shut it down with a scenario.
but do i ever succeed no.
you guys just immediately counteract me with my weaknesses then i get upset and try to counter the counter and it just never seems to work
Then don’t counter in the first place. Try being a bit more positive. Negativity is never healthy. I can say that for myself, I consider myself to be pessimistic but I’m trying to be a more positive person overall.
^ This.
I tend to be pessimistic as well. But I know my limits and when to be positive :3 I’m more positive nowadays anyways 😀
Ludicolo should be a Role-Model. The “Carefree Pokemon” 😀
Duck with a sombrero, he always looks ready to party! xD
Bringing the pineapple fruit punch 😉
sorry this depression has been here for far too long to be removed that easily
(and i keep saying stuff about it NL will ban me again, because he gets irritated whenever i get into one of my depression episodes)
You don’t need to apologize for your depression. It’s never really an individual’s fault. Here’s something I think could help:
http://www.reddit.com/r/lifeprotips/comments/2aklnj/lpt_boosting_your_self_esteem
I’ve been trying it and I’ve seen myself become more positive. Depression is a serious matter and If you can get help, then get it. This might not cure it but it can certainly help.
I do agree though, we can’t go on about this too much but if you need someone to talk to, PM me so that we don’t spam the comments with non-Pokemon related discussion.
Thanks.
and just for the record i literally have zero control whenever it hits this bad
MewMew 😀 I missed u :p :3
Hey Hipster 😀 missed you guys too 🙂 should go on Disqus more xD looking forward to the twins making their appearance? 😮
Oh snap. Bringing the DB meme. Dat is serious.
Someone referenced Dragon Ball Z in X and Y anyhow xD
xD For funsies :3
@TC
You can’t give everything the Fairy Type.
Fiiiiiine :'( Just make Altaria Dragon/Fairy and we’ll stop it at there, nobody else :'(
You mean create Mega Altaria and give it Dragon/Fairy?
Yes
It’s okay. Dat’s all we need.
Maybe Mega Milotic as well.
And Milotic Water/Fairy please :'(
We had the same thought….
:O
TELEPATHIC POWERS ARE ACTIVATED!
Did u forget that we’re the human tao trio :o?
Oh….yeah….
*takes brain out, beats it up for forgetting, then puts it back in head*
Okay, now I remember! :3
But you also have a massive headache! D:
Don’t worry, I have ice in my head cavity. Should be good.
especially to those who don’t need it
But we can give everything Regenerator, right? 😀
No. But apparently we can give everything Magic Bounce and Tough Claws
But but….I wanna bounce with magic… D:
Wooper with Tough Claws Ice Punch :O
I SEE IT NOW!!!
But Tough Claws is such a badass ability
just the name alone screams physical prowess
Watch him. Mega Florges. Fairy/Fairy. Not mono-typed. Both types are fairy.
No, it’s Fairy/Fairy/Fairy. Triple type confurmed.
Nah Fire/Fighting for the lulz
Obvi
Fire/Fighting/Fire/Fighting.
Quad types confirmed
ER MAH GERD DA LEEKS

That’s what the trees look like in the OW when I’m about to use HM01.
You cruel person. Those trees suffer everyday from you people.
#Don’tHM01TreesTheyArePeople2
lel Trevenant. :3
It’s Ghost typed for a reason 😉
To escape from the Tree Genocide due to Cut.
Trenocide
Fire/Fighting/Fairy 😉
Mega Sableye they left out its part Fairy now :3
Let me get this straight once and for all. The following Pokemon are considered LEGENDARY and are therefore BANNED in COMPETITIVE battles.
Kanto: Articuno • Zapdos • Moltres • Mewtwo • Mew
Johto: Raikou • Entei • Suicune • Lugia • Ho-Oh • Celebi
Hoenn: Regirock • Regice • Registeel • Latias • Latios

Unova: Victini • Cobalion • Terrakion • Virizion • Tornadus • Thundurus
Reshiram • Zekrom • Landorus • Kyurem • Keldeo • Meloetta • Genesect
Kalos: Xerneas • Yveltal • Zygarde
wynaut just save the typing and ban them all
lel
i’m just saying they’re all a butt to deal with
Nah, the Trio legends are not banned in competitive play (and regigigas)
So Tornadus, Thundurus, Landorus and Regigigas are not banned? As well as all Pokemon not listed here?
Good. 🙂
and Phione and Heatran i forgot to mention :3
Okay 🙂
And Heatran xD
Whoops, i forgot him xD
Diancie should be banned too :p
But dat Diancie is bootiful D:
Still a legend 🙁
I knows… D:
So, we can use Diancie?
It’s an event Legends so it’s banned
BUT. It wasn’t on Dicie’s list 😉
Forgot it sorry it’s banned also 🙂
Thou art too late 😮 I’ll just bribe the name rater to name my Diancie “Zoroark” 🙂
Not all of those are banned. It’s only Event Legends and Mascot Legends that are banned in official rules.
The only one that doesn’t lie in either if those categories is Mewtwo
Are we talking VGC? If so Articuno,zapdos,moltres, raikou,enti,suicune,the Regis(minis regigigas),uxie,mesprit,azelf,heatran,cresselia,cobalion,terrakion,verzion, and torandus/thunderus/and landurus are not considerd legends.
Nope not VGC
What then?
Quite honestly, I don’t know XD
I don’t know if the Poke Games should go by VGC or “regular” rules
OMFG IM SOOOO CONFUSED >:(
well regular rules go by the same rules as VGC but just doubles.
Dicie I have that trevenant still!
Omgomgomgomg Exeledus!
GET DJAA!
OMFG
What did I owe you again :3
😀 😀 😀
It was glameow but I already got one. But a promise is a promise, its all yours. You’ll have to wait until I can connect to the internet though! Your native scatterbug is now my current request, should be easy enough!
omfg hyyyyype
i thank you so much
i’ll try to be online asap
lemme know if you’re still there 🙂
10 mins? 😀
Don’t forget Diancie!
So, tell me what metagame this is…
sefoisdhf
Shiny Chatot!
Congrats! 😀 bring in the Hoenn trumpets
Shiny Chatot uses Chatter!
Masuda or Wild? I’m currently breeding for a shiny Sableye I will be very upset if its ability is stall q.q
Masuda. My shiny Sableye thankfully has Prankster, but its IV is 31/31/31/31/x/31. Why does the game hate me with Pokemon IVs?
The X could always be something like 28 or 30! :3
I’m going to use the Maison to see its stat at level 50 and use an IV calculator. :/
I’m going to cry again.
Shiny female Level Ball Chatot, Timid, 3 egg moves (Nasty Plot, Boomburst, Encore), Keen Eye,
31/31/31/x/31/31
It’s like my shiny Slugma all over again. T-T Well, can’t complain. Onto the next one!
which stat is X?
sp attack
Special Attack, which is what it needs the most.
aw man 🙁
Just like Sherman (Shiny Chesnaught)
had everything but Defense
and to think i hatched a perfect…
I just started my 2nd masuda attempt for a adsmant hawlucha with max atk and spd ivs and min defenses… not going well! I vot a shiny amaura in only 6 eggs last time I tried this
Congrats on yer find!
Would anyone be kind enough to do some test battles with me? I thought i figured out my final team for PJT but im having some doubts /: I’ll have three teams to try out so i hope someone can handle it xD
I can help you since I’m not in the tournament, but I have to check my Pokemon IVs. I will help you in a bit.
Alright, thank you so much Ig! 🙂
some wad onb Showdown just gave me an idea
Team Abyss and team Crater
Team Pokemon Crater xD Used to love that game back when we couldn’t battle people online.
Also discovered a pretty genius idea for a super Bulky Pokemon
Which Pokemon?
any
Wow… My shiny Chatot Special Attack IV is 8…? I’m not sure if that’s right.
is t doing MASSIVE DAMAGE?
I’m not testing it in battle. I’m using the Serebii IV calculator. :/
Rio, I’m getting ready to go online, be prepared.
Pepper your angus
mmmmm Angus Burgers
How do you like yours
Medium Rare. Always.
I like yer team :3
Thanks! 😀
I see that Magic Bounce Espeon… I see you Rio…
I traded for an HP fire Shiny Protean Greninja recently to tide me over until I get my own… 😮
I should probably wonder trade these perfect atk speed terrible def. Sp.def adamant hawlucha instead of releasing them…
always WT leftovers
although do you ever get the feeling you don’t want to give away these perfect bred pokes with good natures possible Egg moves and good IVs?
Tell me about it I wondered off a few of my shinies i wasnt using (foongus, seaking, and one of my trevenant) and got 2 freshly caught furfrou and a bunnleby -_-; I would have gladly gotten scatterbugs for my collection even…
Naw i really think you wouldn’t
Nobody wouldn’t WT shinies unless he/she had a immense surplus
I think it may make people reconsider what they wonder trade. I’m the wonder trader these people need, not the wonder trader these people deserve!
yeah no the majority of the people are greedy
they don’t care what they give out as long as they get something good
some give away the rejects that can be remotely used
I’m up at around 300 + Pokemon now for my MM ; I have the shiny charm. I’m currently breeding Sableye in preparation for ORAS with a calm nature and egg moves, I’m also hoping it has Prankster and not stall. IF it does, I’ll give away my shiny 4 IV Naughty (Egg move less) Sableye. I also saved up a bunch of 5 IV egg move sableye for you all 😮
😀 yay!
Don’t prebreed
that ruins the fun
It’s certainly better than releasing a bunch of 5IV egg moved Pokes that people could use. .-.
i never said release them
But its true pre breeding ruins ever aspect of a new game
Yes and no. I see your point, but It’ll have good IVs and stuff but I’m keeping it at level one, It IS a hoenn native after all and obtainable during the main course of the game, so no harm done.
Will it have Prankster
Trick Question
you can’t catch Wild HA so to make it fair it has to have Stall
There’s a chance it could have prankster but even if it does, it’s no biggie. Stall is a useless ability so it would be better off not having any ability. There’s no rule that states that my Sableye shouldn’t have prankster. The idea is to have fun during the main game using it and using it for competitive play as well.
just forget it
just ruins the game if you give yourself team members at the very beginning
That’s your opinion. I won’t give it to myself right at the beginning, I’ll send it over after the first or second gym. Either way, what’s to lose? It’s level one.
I prebred for my shiny treeko for ORAS
D:
well you just ruined your game
it doesnt have any egg moves or IV’s though
🙁
i dont see whats wrong with it
Nothing is wrong with it.
Like i said earlier, don’t bring people down. He worked hard to get his shiny treecko.It’s a personal choice and he should be able to use it.
Not the same Trainer Numbee or whatever and noy given in a house/lab 1/10.
so? i think its even more special because i put time into getting it. it wasn’t just given to me.
I don’t like it for playthroughs.
does anyone want to help me have a test battle? I just want to try out my team and find out which combination work and stuff like that. (:
I would love too! 😀 Although, I’m going through some test battles myself currently xD
awesome i can wait let me know when you’re done? (: also it’s gonna be a double battle is that alright?
Oh! Cool, I love double battles 🙂 any specific format? and I will!
yeah same haha, yeah it’s just a normal double battle. I wanna test my new team (:
Alright sounds good! 🙂 heres my FC 4141 3066 8005
awesome here’s mine 1822-0195-1018 (:
Ill be ready after this battle! 🙂 Whats your IGN?
awesome (: just let me know when you’re on (:
Close one Rio, good game. How do you feel about your team? 😀
GG Ig! 😀 It sure was close! Hmm i rate it 7.5/10. I think its a good team but once Luke is gone, it lacks firepower. Can we go again with a different team? 🙂
Sure thing. Oh, with your Ninetales’ Drought, it activated my Exeggutor’s Chlorophyll. XD I gambled and used Sleep Powder. If only your Ninetales go to sleep for a bit longer…
I was like I hope Taunt doesn’t wear off and it has Harvest instead but nope xD If only Luke wouldve woken up… and im almost ready for round 2!
