  1. I’m kinda sat at the fact that the legendaries battle music is the exact same from their original battle :/ Giratina’s theme is the same from platinum and the dogs theme is the same from Crystal :/ I WANTED THEM TO REMIX HO-OH AND LUGIA’S THEMES Dx

  2. I hate how people keep saying the BF is pointless now since everyone just battles online…. what i loved about BF was that you were working towards something! Collecting all 7 symbols first in Silver then Gold and each facility required you to battle differently:
    Factory- Using random pokemon.
    Arena- Judged Battles
    Dome- The tournament style.
    Pike- Luck based progression with a bit of mystery and clues.
    Palace- Your pokemon literally do all the work.
    Tower- Full on competitive.
    Pyramid- Puzzling and ridiculously hard to beat.

    The BF was NOTHING like online battles and the game is worse for not having it at present (i still have hope that it will be added later).

    • I kno a lot people love the BF, but I’ve never been a fan…….It’s always just seemed so tedious and annoying to me….I couldn’t care one way or the other if it ends up being in the game or not

      • I respect you opinion but i hate how the choice is not there anymore. The great thing about post game is that it is optional but lately (looking at you XY) the post game has been very basic and where it is larger there is almost no replayability (delta episode).

    • I never cared for it personally. I actually hated it, and it board me to death so I never used it, and found all of those battle frontier like things useless, and a waist of my time. SO I couldn’t care less if there in the game.

  3. you know i really didnt like 3rd gen to begin with so when i heard they were remaking i was like no. But i did always want to do the battle frontier and was looking forward to new megas. But if this post game is similar to xy then its a shame and i guess i will never like hoenn, but thats just me.

  4. Personally I would prefer if this site will not be left to shambles when the games comes by. So does anybody have some wicked idea to stop this site to be made redundant. Anyhow give me a bell.

  5. If any of you get mad because GF haven’t added in any more megas, put it this way, they’ve introduced 18 new megas (20 if you count Lati@s) and 2 Primals.
    Just because some of the fan favourites didn’t get a mega doesn’t mean that they won’t in the future.
    And concerning the Battle Frontier, yes it’s not in the games, no need to get butthurt over it. They can implement it in the future I’m sure. Just cause something doesn’t go your way, it doesn’t mean that you whine and complain, it literally benefits no-one

    • I’m satisfied with the number of mega evolutions we got so far and I’m very positive that we are going to get more because of the intereview of Shigeru Ohmori.

    • People are allowed to have and express an opinion. I mean, it’s nice if they do it in a polite and coherent manner, sure, but this *is* a fandom comprised of many people under the age of 15, so it’s not exactly shocking if some of the reactions are less than mature.

  7. “Charizardite Y is in the Scorched Slab. It has been improved and made to be a several floor dungeon.

    When you get to the third floor, you encounter Flannery and she says about a
    Fire-type Pokémon living there. Go to the bottom and you will find a ring that brings Heatran”

    Annnnnddddddd I’m offically dead.
