Today is the day. Not only will we have a new Pokémon Champion, but we can also keep our eyes peeled for any new Pokémon Sun & Moon announcements at the closing ceremony! We’ve pretty much debunked the “rainbow Greninja” rumor, but it’s finally time to put it to rest! Watch below:

FEATURED DISCUSSION: Request-a-Trade










OMG they’re playing TCG and I don’t uderstand a shit. That’s another world…
I miss playing TCG. So fun. 🙁
I agree… I actually got into it with the trading card game online a few weeks ago and had a blast. I forgot how much fun it is….
It’s not that bad. I started playing this year. It is more frustrating than VGC though.
Maybe they’ll release 4 new Pokemon again
I doubt it, but that would be cool. I want more cross-gen Pokémon
As I said yesterday. The layout is disgusting. Can barely see the game screen.
I thought you were talking about the site layout then. Was about to be very, very sad!
Sorry. I did say I was talking about Worlds :/
Obviously I love the site layout
?
Moving you’re talented, sexy, charismatic, caring man. God bless you.
Belmad, you really do make me feel great sometimes. I love reading your comments and when you post ones like this it makes my day!
Thank you. 🙂
(I’m not sure about the sexy part though hahaha.)
Ash gets crucified for losing the League, Alain betrays him, Serena is on a helicopter with Steven, Diantha is getting involved, Korrina is coming back, our little Puni-chan goes to the dark side, Clemont is battling Xerosic, and Lysandre has gone mad. Okay, you got me hooked.
AHHH I love the new design of the website!!!
Question (Pokemon GO): When (What Level) did you start getting 10km eggs?
I guess it doesn’t depend on your level, it’s just a matter of luck.
🙁
I’m not good with that
My first egg was a 10km, so level 1.
I’m just not lucky 🙁
Level 12
I’m level 15 and I haven’t gotten any…
It’s just luck, which I’m not good at 🙁
Around level ten. Hatched an Eevee…
Wow. That sucks
I also finally found a Horsea that’s been running before I can find it and it escaped from my last two curve balls and razz berries.
I have 8 Horsea.
There have been other good Pokemon that ran from me though. Golbat, Growlithe, Wartortle and Pikachu…
I feel the running rate has increased with updates. Every damn Caterpie line pokemon flees after one ball for me.
A Golbat, Beedrill, and Rhydon
I caught a Beedrill on Day 1
I caught a Fearow day one
Me level 6-9 I forgot which
Haven’t gotten one still…
I only get few 5km and 10km a lot of for an odd reason yet haven’t hatched any of them the 10km’s at least
I only get 5’s. Rarely 2’s
I’m almost done my first 10 hoping its Porygon
Porygon are from 5’s. I got one and called it PoryInDaHaus.
Then when I get a Porygon2, I’ll call it PoryInDaHau2. Then PoryInDaHauZ
I want Porygon really bad!
He wants you too
http://www.smogon.com/dex/media/build/fbsprites/rb/porygon.png
Porygon!!
Im telling you now I’m stealing that haha you genius 🙂
I’m level 20 anh only got my first one a few days ago. It was an eevee
http://www.parentherald.com/articles/62376/20160820/pokemon-go-update.htm
Ughh… So many things are wrong with this. This is why non-Pokemon fans shouldn’t write articles about GO unless it’s their views on it…
what. a. mess. smh
The Ultimate evolution of Zubat, Poliwag usually turns to Poliwhirl now it can become Politoed. Oh. Ok I guess we can just skip Poliwhirl this time lol.
I can wait to evolve my onix three times into a steelix!
….
Not gunna lie I got bored of pokemon go two weeks after I got it
I still play, but I don’t constantly look at it, more I just keep it open and try to find rarer Pokemon.
Wtf was that shit
You said it yourself, It was S**t
Knew all those Zubat candies will eventually be worth it.
How is Porygon-Z a Gen.4 Pokemon getting a slit in Gen.2 idiots
I’ve never cringed so hard.
I’m gonna post my request again, because all I got last time was some crap about how bad Ledian is from Earthen.
Can anyone spare a FEMALE Ledyba/Ledian from a region that’s not the US (For Masuda Method)?
Ill check my boxes
Thank you 🙂
guess what :3 I have one! (its stats are garbage though if thats something you were looking for)
IGN: John (i think)
FC: 2492-4342-8850
No. I’m not worried about Stats. Thanks. I’ll add you.
FC: 3239-3723-6799
IGN: Green
I don’t see you online
Thanks 🙂
no problem 🙂
http://www.smogon.com/dex/xy/pokemon/ledian/
I don’t care.
You can’t hide from the truth
http://i.imgur.com/yNfLbUh.jpg
Best quote
This is the truth of Pokemon
Slay, queen
Oh get with the times everything we want to use gets outclassed by the stuff that wins
A painful truth
Furret boi
Dude. I would use Surkern if that was my favorite. Any Pokemon can be strong if you believe ;D
And Is that Sunken going to win battles on a competitive scale?
Not unless it is heavily supported and carried
Not everyone uses their favorite Pokemon in COMPETITIVE. And even if they do, which you shouldn’t be judging, and they’re serious about Competitive, they have strategies.
I live by this motto actually, its what puts Karen as like my fav E4 member
I’m not hiding. I’m basking
No context post
Lol. Why did I even refresh?
Nature is beautiful.
Kids. Avert your eyes
wow, thats going to be my new wallpaper
Sorry if this has been asked already, but what time should we be expecting the closing ceremony?
Sun and Moon better make HMs forgettable. I’ve missed out on Super power and hydro pump for my Feraligatr while grinding in HGSS for Red
SAME!!!!
Except, I missed those during my battle with Will.
It shouldn’t say “You can’t forget that now”.
It should say “You can’t forget that here” like if you’re in the water and you wanna forget surf.
When the show should be ended?
Who else was hoping we would get Mega PorygonZ X and Mega PorygonZ Y?
Porygon 2 is one of my fav pokemon! Megas would be pretty cool but maybe just one because the ZX and ZY might be a little much
It would be funny, but yeah. I would only want 2 because it’s funny.
Me too Porygon 2
That thing can go die in a hole filled with magnets and Mormons
Because of Eviolite this annoyance is considerably bulky and a constant pain in my ass
And whenever you have a Pory2 there’s Z and another Evolite toting Chansey
Try finding a normal mono without those annoying shits
I like how you tell green he cant like Ledian because its too weak and now you’re telling me I can’t like a pokemon because its too good. I guess I get to tell you that you don’t get to like rypherior because its too ugly eh?
First I’m not telling he can’t like it
I’m telling him Shiny Ledian is hardly different
And Ledian is just a very underperforming Pokemon
Oh earthen, live and let live, does it really matter?
It does, life is misery and pain and only the strongest, better suited and successful survive, the weak and undesirables are cast aside as if nothing
You should go ask someone for a hug
Well I’m all alone and that’s the ways it’s been for the last….5 years
:c i know what thats like since my fiancé left with someone else, it’ll all be ok, things get better buddy, or so I’m told
Isn’t a fiancé a male?
no, its for both male and female, but yes he was a dude
…did you upvote your own comment? XD
I upvote lots of comments sometimes my own
ahahahhahahhaha! That is the best thing I have ever heard! XD so funny
They really don’t
Things have not gotten better, just constant stress, anger and depression for 7-8 years and nothing ever goes my way
Maybe things are going your way, you’re just not noticing the small things that do, it all adds up in the long run.
Medication can help sometimes with depression if go see someone, I personally didn’t like it because it made me feel like a robot but for others it can do wonders. Now I just drink, juice, totally juice.
And meditate a lot, it keeps me calm and I mean, everyone knows I’m a little out there, I pretty much live in my own world, its much nicer there
They’ve been drugging me since infancy
And I don’t meditate all I feel is rage and fear of the world
I was once like that, but it was just stressing me out so much I pretty much knew it would put me in an early grave, so I just slowly started taking back control of my emotions as best I could, letting things go and becoming stronger than my emotions were when they were out of control, obv I’m not 100% there but I do have more restraint and don’t feel the need to punch stupid people in the face all the time, anger and fear can enslave you, be stronger than they are.
Dedenne is in my Favs. and it one hit K.O.’d a Mega blastoise
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlxaWFDCDUE
Didn’t Kevin make that?
idk who kevin is but this video has been around since like XY came out (the video I shared is not the original)
Nevermind. It’s a different video. (Kevin is ShinyXatu)
Put up or shut up
I want to see some proof
I don’t have that anymore I deleted that file
Suuuuuuure
I did yet I still have a wing all the Hoenn starters with a Glalie one shot to each
What does that even mean
I defeated them all in one hit even if it was a one hit K.O. Move
Fehhh
That was probably my biggest luck in the game Sheer colding all 3
Hmm I never thought of it before but this might be them
I love that second one, super cool
Should´nt they be called Mega PorygonZ Sun and Mega PorygonZ Moon?
Sweet! I just caught a hidden ability shiny dwebble (I named it limestone because its gunna turn green). I have a question for my fellow shiny hunters out there (or just in general) what was your very first shiny pokemon ever caught? (not the ones basically given to you in game) mine was Cofagrigus in BW 😀
Congrats 😀
My first shiny was Buizel in Platinum 🙂
Omg my first shiny was Floatzel in Diamond!
That I have had Krabby is Soul silver
But I lost that when I forgot to save my Platinum and lost it forever
So my first was Weedle in SS
:c oh no! Im so sorry Kurusu that royally sucks! But awesome for the weedle, it becomes an awesome green hornet
It is one of two Shinies I obtained myself the other was Gulpin in Emerald
I once ran away from a shiny magikarp in Sapphire, it was the first shiny I had ever seen in my life (in Sootopolis City, I was like 11 or something) lol I pressed the button too fast, so that may make you feel better? you’re not alone. Also I killed a shiny butterfree by accident in pokemon Y
Ooo that’s not good yet my brother accidentally killed a shiny Geodude he found yet caught a Shiny Zigzagoon in Sapphire
Ingaf a shiny lairon that run away in sapphire. It was a bad day
True to my element I am just destined
My very first shiny was a Shiny Marowak from FireRed, which I still own to this day
Thats actually been one of my hunt targets! I need to get that shiny lol, but I got a sandshrew instead (not that I’m complaining)
Golbat in Emerald Victory Road. On my first ever playthrough.
I don’t remember, but I do know that in HGSS I found a shiny swinub and powered off the game because I thought it was a glitch.
Oh you poor summer child, :C I’ve heard of that happening to a lot of kids back in the day, hopefully the shiny odds will be in your favour next time
I killed my first shiny (Electrike), because I didn’t know what a shiny was and I already had an Electrike in my party. :/
The first shiny I caught was a Shuppet in Emerald.
Emerald and HGSS seem to be easiest to catch them in
T_T you guys have some sad shiny stories you’re breaking my heart lol, I hope you all have gotten a better chance since then
Also SHUPPET!!! Banette is my second all time fav pokemon 🙂
It’s okay. I’ve managed to catch every shiny I’ve encountered since then, which is well over a hundred (I’m a dedicated shiny hunter). But I just can’t forget about that Electrike. xD
Summer?
its a GOT reference
That’s something I would’ve done, but I always knew what shinies were. I used to be very, VERY scared of glitches
Shiny magicarp in Pokemon gold, it was a letdown
… not gunna lie thats probably the worst one to get in pokemon gold/silver other than literally getting another gyrados 😛 but a shiny is a shiny 🙂
…No matter how unfortunate.
Golbat in HGSS
Mine was Meditite in BW
Dialga event in black
Hmmm, I think the first one I can really remember was a shiny Geodude in Emerald. But I don’t have it
Fun fact, I encountered a shiny Staravia in Platinum a few years ago and caught it just as my battery died, so I was distraught for maybe a year or two xD
Wow….Curse the old slow saving
Yeah, I was so excited and when the battery died, I was speechless for a few minutes before I just screamed.
That happened to me once, but on a lesser scale. I didn’t save before the E4 and Champion and I beat Lance, but then I had to do it again because my battery died
Diglett in Crystal version! Seven year old Tevis was so confused by the sparkles and blue hue. My second shiny was Suicune in Soul Silver. First run in too! Lost my soul silver cartridge though (before bank)… Still crying.
Swablu in Omega Ruby! It was fun using the DexNav for 5 hours~
Alright is Worlds officially over or what’s going on
VGC is starting in half an hour
I vote Primal Groudon to win
I vote… I.. I don’t know who to vote for
Agumon is gonna win
Like this
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Xyrzpo-cefA
I vote Alolan Exeggutor. Oh wait Sun and Moon isn’t out yet… UGH WHY DO WE HAVE TO WAIT SO LOOOONG
do you see the timer? Either its coming back or thats the Nuke timer. your pick
I’m going with nuke timer
Well I had a good run
See you all in Hell
I am a cockroach you cannot kill me
Actually you can most certainly be killed
Despite popular belief Cockroaches are not immune to radiation, they just have a high tolerance to pain but with all living creatures (except maybe that one type of jellyfish) will eventually die is bombarded with aggressive force or pretty much anything
It really makes you thing that anything is basically a weapon or can hurt/kill anyone if used the right way
Eeepp! *hides under Dresser*
Why you little!!!
*Douses the dresser with kerosene*
*Pulls out a lighter and tosses it*
*Crawls out with tiny machine gun* never surrender!!!!!
*The tiny bullets bounce off my rocky exterior*
T_T púdrete en el infierno!!!
Uh-oh
you know this but not knowing what the timer is for lol
Strange world we live in eh
yea people like you know more from Snapple facts then common facts
Well I technically haven’t been in school for like 4 years, everyone loses a good deal of intelligence after graduation
Also not to brag I truly think my sleep apnea is beginning to affect my neurological state
I’ve been out of school for 2 months 🙂
HMM MAYBE I SHOULD PLAY SOULSILVER AGAIN
YEAH. YOU SHOULD. AFTER ALL, IT IS THE BEST GAME
Choose a decentFlying type though!
Ehm I usually just go with Pidgey, easy route and Pidgeot is my 3rd favourite Flying type ever.
Have you ever tried using Skarmory??
Yes, but I dont like Skarmory. I find it ugly
It’s one of my favorites….
LOL, no but the only reason its one of my favorites is because of its use in competitive. I don’t love its design that much. It’s so damn bulky and fun to use XD
I’m gonna suggest Mantine
Ehh I have opinions on it I actually traded and breeded a Starly to take its place
I mean, its my favorite pokemon game ever so yeah… Play it again.
No. It’s the best game
Darn right it is
Prepare to go slooooow
DO IT
OMG I WANT IT. SOOOO CUTE, I WANT TO HUG IT AND NEVER LET GO
Cute Dolls ^v^
Blahhhhhhh even the bratty kids are using ubers
At the very least there is a Hitmontop (my fav fighting type)
So basically a 12 year old kid won Worlds or something?
they have different divisions, they are pretty much separated by age groups
There are Junior, Senior and Masters divisions.
Non-pokemon related: Hate it when you’re playing an MMO, and your guild has a raid planned and the raid leader cancels it at the last minute…
Which one exactly?
The Old Republic
That’s what I thought 🙂
Lol, luckily it hardly ever happens.
At least not in my guild
That’s a weird way to spell World of Warcraft
WoW should have been binned ages ago. Fraud game
Then why is it one of the most beloved mmos ever
Legion is coming this Tuesday
Think you’re confusing having a loyal player base with being loved.
Bah the snot nosed just coasted on M. Rayquaza
No skill I tell ya
Hitmontop seemed like the MVP to me, M Rayquaza was a very close second though, but like, the other team is also using crazy powerful pokemon so
A hindrance at best
Sidenote, and also not Pokemon-related: Are olympic athletes supposed to look like this?
And all these fraud kids using legendaries+Primals.
Cory is a fraud
The kid is no better then the rest of the “champions”
Just who used ubers better and luck
I am not amused
I would kill all of them with my Heliolisk
Really hoping next year we have another Pachirisu situation
Is there more coming? Otherwise I’m going back to old skool PS2 gaming.
seniors is next, and then Masters.
Son of a bitch!
Just reveal some new info
To be fair, they have revealed a ton this month
*Pulls out a very large knife*
And to show I mean business
*Undos a secret latch in the handle and pulls out a long length of piano wire*
“Earthen gets triggered”
One day I’m gonna build that knife
Im not sure what you are all upset about, literally like every team is going to be pretty much the same (aka legends, primals and M Kanga) thats pretty much what worlds is, no one there has originality to their teams, thats pretty much competitive in a nutshell really
Earthen and I would kill all of them
Is the World Championships just full of Legendaries and OP Megas again? Honestly, I wish they would ban the most used Pokemon to allow people to use other non-legendary Pokemon. It’s boring to watch who’s uber Pokemon are the most fastest.
LOL at the kid who just basically said what we’re all thinking about the teams, ironically his team fit the stereotype, smh, but good for you kid, enjoy your victory (choose different pokemon next time)
Well he wants to win, so why should he.
??? no I mean like the kid literally said that he doesn’t like the fact that everyone always uses the same pokemon, and said he wanted to counter the ones everyone uses, but he used the same ones as everyone else, so…? Im not saying he doesn’t want to win I’m just saying its a little off to say one thing and do the opposite?
That was a response to your comment in brackets. About using different Pokemon next time.
Honestly it depends on the rules and which Pokemon are allowed but I can’t blame people for using the best out of what’s allowed…it’s a competition and they all want to win.
I just hope the limit the useable Pokemon next year. That’s they only way to make it interesting. Get people to think.
…. I think you misunderstood my comment 100%… Im pretty much saying that if he wanted to achieve his goal he should have picked different pokemon. It has nothing to do with winning, I understand everyone wants to win
And I’m saying my comment was only a response to what you said in brackets at the end of your comment.
Forget it, doesn’t matter.
no it doesn’t matter, I don’t think we’re on the same page but its not important anyways, yolo
To be fair, prize money is 10k right? Not surprised everyone picks legendaries in that case, lol.
Yea it’s money, but it’s lame seeing people bring the same teams every year.
They’re well within the rules this year, so yeh why not
So what are the prerequisites to enter Worlds?
Yah I was wondering the same thing does anyone here know?
If memory serves right, its an invitational based on a point system. These points are earned though competing at regional and national competitions, as well as how you perform in the VGC mode of online play.
So basically if you do well enough at regional’s or online, you can go to nationals, where if you do well enough there you can go to worlds.
Got it…. Thank you!!!
Run people run. verlisify is attacking pokejungle (again) Run before he is using you in one of his video’s for rumor believer XD
Nah
Link
the previous article.
I googled his channel to see the video and the first result under his channel is “Verlisify is an idiot”
Thats because the youtube communitie hate his guy. Every month he has a new youtuber or website to pick on.
Why does anyone still support the twat
I really dont know. But i like it when other youtubers disproves him ^^
Its fine nobody takes him seriously at this point
Yeah, link pls.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdSTPuOXAO8
He really is the cancer of Pokemon.
Leeeeeeettttss get ROOOIIIT into the views!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdSTPuOXAO8
Verlisify is screaming for attention
ughhh! The worst thing about him is that when he makes outlandish speculations about pokemon things and stuff that turn out to be false he expects everyone to just forget about it and move on like it was no big deal (its not a big deal but still) but the minute anyone he doesn’t like makes a claim that turns out to be false he goes out of his way to try and discredit them for it and honestly he’s the biggest hypocrite I think I have ever heard of
Let him do what he wants, like I care if he uses anything I say against me. Let him burn himself down.
He can talk al he wants about me I’ll just need my Weavile to strike him down
I kind of want him to talk about me because it would be funny if he goes that far.
I’d probably have a good laugh about it, tbh.
I want to smash him into a coma
I really think that one day. Someone will knock on his door and will smash him in the face for everything he is doing on youtube.
We stand as Junglers he goes that far he is just an attention seeking.moron!
And we kill without warning!
Woah what
Verlis is a disease
The Jungle is a force not to mess with come forth army of
Zangoos
Say the line SAY IT
Chaaaaaarrrrggge!!!!
No, I’ve been waiting for somebody to say
“I have an army”
Then
“We have a Earthen”
And without hesitation
“EARTHEN SMASH!!!”
Oh sorry
Verlis isn’t caesar more like the weird hunchback in 300 but this gif still stands
Who’d he use this time? I can’t watch the video right now. Can anyone tell me what he’s talking about?
I wouldn’t call it talking, more like just a bunch of garbage and salt spewing fourth from his mouth
Okay so I was able to watch the video after all. What a load of crap from that guy. Does the word “rumor” not mean anything to him? PJ and the writers always take rumors with a grain of salt and make sure we do too by posting it not as a news source, but as a speculative article. Youtube is full of people making videos that are either clickbait or halfbaked in order to receive their money. Do some research next time, Verlisify.
He’s saying that PokeJungle is unreliable because it posts rumors even though the articals straight up say RUMOR in huge letters
Doesn’t he do the same?
yes. yes he does.
Here’s some tidbits about Battle Royal that was explained at Gamescom this year, it’s a short list but it’s neat none the less.
– The winner is determined by the number of Pokemon defeated by each player and how many they have left.
– One gold star marks one defeated Pokemon.
– If it’s a draw, the remaining HP of the remaining Pokemon determines the winner.
So downright murder everything or be a cowardly insect hiding
Omg you guys got to see this gimmick team
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-421621317
Are you using a Slurpuff? You’re death to me
Slurpuff is cool though
This is just my OU team, the bloody cream puff is still a bastard
I just use my trademarked dual tank set
And Slurpuff is the only fairy I seldom like
Lel that fraud just spammed V-Create
LOL is Verlis seriously claiming Rainbow Greninja is legit because Happy Hour Meowth turned out true? Proper bellend that
Who wants to go see Sausage Party
I read somewhere that a bunch of their animators weren’t credited. Was that true?
I dunno, I want to go see a raunchy R rated movie about talking food
I found this
http://www.dorkly.com/post/80148/sausage-partys-animators-were-treated-like-shit
IDK, I feel like they don’t deserve the money if this stuff happened but you can still go and enjoy it if you want I guess
oh, I believe it! Now I’m just reading about how Disneys lion king was a Real freak fest before modifications. I’ve never trusted them.
Meh, I’ll pass. It doesn’t look interesting to me.
I’m more interested in Kubo :3
Kubo looks very very good I’m going to see it tomorrow
I’m aiming to see it sometime this weekend with my best friend.
Well.. . One is more so for kids one for adults…
I may love raunchy humor and I am old enough to see it, but I just don’t feel like watching Sausage Party
Well I don’t blame you. .. The art doesn’t look that interesting if you ask me. Let alone enough to justify the StarStorm article I read. Seems like one I’d enjoy on TV though in a hotel with HBO plane or something
Me me me!!!
I love that PokeJungle now has a techno background music. Bopping.
Huh? I don’t hear any background music
It’s now just some dudes talking, weird.
Lol. I get it 😀
its the pokemon worlds stream lol scroll up
I am going to keep my eyes peeled for any new Pokémon Sun & Moon announcements at the closing ceremony!
Aren’t we all 🙂
Let’s keep our eyes open. 🙂
How much longer?
at the Finals of the Masters VGC Match. 😀
Primal merchants everywhere
He’s about to pull out the Mega Kangaskhan Outrage.
What is this BS about the Kalos League bringing back the BW writers and them wanting to replace Ash but decided not too due to time restraints?
Maybe it’s right, but sounds like a load of fooey, ppl will believe Anything.
Me have no idea what you are even talking about??
Where did you hear the Ash replacing part?
Prob some kid.. on YouTube. People believe everything
Im really surprised that more people don’t use Mega Altaria, its my personal MVP and its crazy strong, I was sure id see one at worlds but I guess I was wrong, since its all Kanga all the time (it is pretty much the most OP mega I guess)
Used it in my last ORAS playthrough
It’s a good mon, but 80 base speed is what kills it for VGC. It’s slower then the primals, but its faster then most trickroom runners.
Its fast enough for me personally, I will never use a primal (but I know most do) and I don’t use it in a trick room setting, it doesnt get taken down easily and if you are in a tight spot Stab hyper beam can kill pretty much anything, although I have Hyper voice on mine instead
Like I said, it is good. There’s no question that its a solid mega pokemon, but really it doesn’t have a leg to stand on when placed against any of the top six mons. Then again I’m the guy who runs an Empoleon on my team to troll dual primal players, especially when their clearly hackers and don’t’ fully understand what a good move pool is for them.
omg! That is awesome! Keep on trolling them hackers 😛
They were not talking about personal use.. but vgc
I am aware, he told me why its not used, I was just adding why I like it personally, whats wrong with that?
.. who said something was wrong?
Not a PvP player, so whats with all this love for Smeargle and Kanghaskan?
it can learn any move, so its a pretty popular pokemon online and in tournaments
And Kanghaskan?
He attacks twice
its just cheap
It’s a demon that can do Double of an attack like Giga Impact, Hyper Beam, ect.
Smeargle fairly recently has been able to legally learn Dark Void, which makes it a near instant pick for VGC. 80% chance of sleep on both of your opponents pokemon is too good not to have.
The match is over
Yaah Carson! XD
Never done PvP, but I would beat both these frauds and Primal merchants
Ughhhhh when is this legend fest over
When 7th gen rolls around the corner.
Hopefully we get some gen 7 stuff today *begs Masuda to show us something
Ummm.. No. They will Always use 2 legends min if it’s allowed… The other 2 they use may change.. odd are just 1 and mega Khang or smeargle will continue to be a staple
“Why was your team so successful?”
>I use every legendary everyone else uses too
#PureLuck n #LittleCommonSense
:p Well, I mean if you are allowed to use em, use em. It’s not like you’re going to win without them unfortunately… But I am certainly excited for next year worlds. Sun and Moon looks like it’s going to shake up the competitive game a lot….
I would love if the next VGC is little cup
Mienfoo everywhere and every one of them loaded with Evolites
little cups are the best
That would be awesome, but for the first year sun and moon is out, I want it to be normal VGC rules to showcase some of the new Pokemon and their strategies…
Ugh.. they’re making me Hate vgc
Why?? Cuz of the legendaries?
Same old same old.. . I need variety. Only 4 pokemon.. and 2 can be legends.. there for 2 Will be legends.. Boring. Plus I used to always think Singles was the epitome of Pokemon Battling.. and doubles a side thing.. competitive is proving me wrong.. I find it boring. Not straight out battling
True… I don’t mind the doubles, but this no variety thing sucks. I think Gen 7
will shake things up tho..
What was the winners team? Did he just win as a Junior or does this mean he all around #1? I missed it.
He won seniors. I didn’t catch his full team, but basically he’s the number 1 player in his age bracket. The final match is the masters, which is basically the adult players, who are considered to be the best players in the world.
Oh is that about to start!? I’ll watch!
There needs to be a 1 Legend Minimum.. if that. Plus I personally find Single battles way more interesting. I understand they are longer but they make the vgc players battle each other over n over right? What if in singles.. you win or lose first battle with someone.. then move on. Much more entertaining!
Singles is currently broken right now is kind of broken with stealth rocks though. Also having it best of three prevents the game from being reduced to who got the luckier rolls.
Also the legendary pokemon addition was made due to the criticism that 2015 was too samey with everyone using the same team, so the idea was to shake things up with it. As you can see that backfired a bit.
Yeah. .. clearly it changed nothing.
But I really don’t see how stealth rocks breaks a thing. It’s one threat that people will undoubtedly prepare for.
Also Luck is apart of Any Battle. No matter what it will help determine the winner and that’s ok. It’s also Far more interesting than a 3peat if u ask me.
If you lose.. then come back again next year.
Making a more consistent team that can win first go is what I aim for.
Stealth rocks is kind of broken in the sense that pretty much every team is built around it. You can use mons that are weak to rock as they take too much damage, you need to have a rapid spinner which means if is 3v3 you instantly know a pokemon that will always be used, and then most strats amount to use trying to force your opponent to switch out until the rocks kill them. That’s not really fun or fair.
Also that really doesn’t work well when you think about that. In any sports competition you tend to play a season with the teams with the best score after playing so many games going to the playoffs and then making that single elimination. Its the same case here. You can win 2 games during the swiss rounds that are best of three, but once you get to the top 8 its single elimination from best of three.
having it be a single game would certainly make it faster, but can you really feel that anyone would call it a good game if someone won because they won with a lucky crit or something like that? People would be pissed.
Well I actually was going to say.. it should be 6v6 and and until semi finals or finals.. it would be 2 battles.
Also to say that rock weak pokemon would be at a disadvantage and you would definitely already know 1 pokemon someone is using.. sounds exactly like vgc.
Everyone is using Primal Groudon, and we can say any pokemon weak to its typings are at a disadvantage.
Making Full Teams would force variety and more planning.
Vgc.. where 2 Can be legends.. means 2 Will be legends.. and groudon one of them.. the other predictable.. and the last 2 pokemon often Smeargle and Mega Khang
So it really evens out in that sense..
6v6 would have no more flaws than vgc
And more variety
Plus I feel like Legendaries may not be as prominent in singles. They should at least make different divisions.
Exactly what I was going to say. . If people can’t handle stealth rocks.. or there not being the typical 3 in a row battles.. don’t join it! Aka can’t take the heat? Stay out of the kitchen.
Singles would be even worse for dealing with legends. At least doubles gives you a chance against them with two Pokemon.
In singles, once Rayquaza sets up….it’s GG.
Notice how set up moves are incredibly rare on doubles.
Also play OU on Showdown and you will realise that singles also consists of pretty much the same Pokemon on each team.
That’s bound to happen. It’s just up to the rulings to change that. .. or not.
I just think Singles is Way more interesting personally.. therefore it should be an option for those like me who prefer it.. and aren’t afraid of facing different threats than the vgc has.
Fair enough. Personally I just don’t think it’s practical on the big stage.
I also prefer playing singles over doubles, but when it comes to watching I’d prefer doubles.
I get that… I’m not that competitive.. so I dunno. Just a thought
If it makes it worse for dealing with legends. . . Then only 1 Legend per team for this division. Plus if someone is so afraid of a setup Rayquaza then they can prep for it… Like everyone preps for primal groudon. Or it can be not legal for this division.
I think the Uber legends shouldn’t even be allowed. They usually aren’t. They just changed it up this year cos no new games came out so it woud have been the same as last year.
Buy having too many different divisions is also impractical in my opinion. They are very limited on time at Worlds. Only a single 2 day weekend.
Yeah.. the adult finals were fun actually.. Raichu n hitmontop n bronzong
Masters VGC Finals Starts Now!
I found this in an old map on computer, still relevant it seems. Credits go to Happypants3.
Pretty accurate I think
That’s really cool!
Wow! Who made this?? It’s amazing!
Is there a real picture of Pokebeach admin?
wow this is pretty old right? wow *-*
oh man we got 2 Americans who will win?!
Does it really matter? Its a clean sweep in VGC for the USA!
Extralegal
Ezreal stupid spell check!!!!
Oh. o-o Team USA! ^v^
Oh I didn’t mean to cone across rude, or aggressive or anything. Its just nice to see a usa sweep since it rarely happens. Like the euro. player that one masters last year when the 7 other players in top 8 were all Japanese.
thats ok*hugs* ^v^
Ughhhh one more match
Inbe4 no info
Jonathan Vs. Wolfe ladies and gentleman and all gamers,it’s the battle of the legendary gamers!
This Is IT! 8D
Well it’s over now
Swords Dance and Rayquaza is death
Wolfe Wins! XD
The End!
Aooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! XD
Congrats Mr.Wolfe. Awesome name by the way.
did anyone else notice that in ORAS on the battle island an NPC just appeared out of no where and talks about the Pokemon World Championships? like wow (I’m assuming this only happens when you connect to the internet)
Did u still believe in rainbow Greninja ?
It’s basically debunked
Did I miss something? …..I don’t believe it in the first place by the way.
The leaker incorrectly claimed that Gigareki was a Tiki style Pokemon, but it was later confirmed that that was a trademark for a Gamefreak title, Giga Wrecker.
NEW POKEMON LEAKED http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1471811989427.jpg
I want it
My spirit animal
Here’s your (you).
for a second I actually thought this was a leak. And I got hyped. XD
Done with Fire/Dragon after Thursday. Now my arch-nemesis
I had my suspicions but I feel like after watching Wolfe win.. Alolan Raichu will Definitely be competitive! It’s amazing how much I like it now, and need one,compared to when I first saw it.
He seems like a pretty cool guy.
I like how he said what he learned most was that you have to play the game as is.. sure you want it to be more diverse.. and use unique teams.. but you went there to WIN.. so that’s not always possible.
I think Raichu and Hitmontop were pretty cool choices tho
*as is
Please reveal something new in sun and moon
You’re a beg mate
They wont 😛
Noticed a lot of players using Cresselia. Never thought its such a competitive Pokemon.
Ironically its been in competitive play pretty much since its creation. Its a very good support pokemon in doubles.
The closing ceremony is coming,Come on Sun And Moon!
Unfortunately very unlikely to happen….
Hurry up and get your ass on stage, Masuda!
Hosts, I respect Zheng, but please stfu!
i’m Crossing my fingers!
How much longer? What time is it supposed to end…
Basically it ends when it ends at this point. Their really isn’t a timer anymore. So chances are their talking now just to fill a little time while they set up for the closing ceremony.
Figured.. ugh
Just started.
They won money!? How much does Masters get if so!?
Junior champion gets 10k, no idea for Senior and Masters though
No way .. . . . . What the….
Yeah man its crazy money. I would have considered competitive play if I wasn’t such a lazy ass lol. 15k is sick money to win a, in the end silly video game championship.
15k for the champ. 7.5k for the runner up.
I put correct amounts above. From official 2016 site
Thanks you.
I just hope that fucking Rainbow Greninja rumor is put to rest.
When Happy Hour Meowth was announced, I saw so many dumb uneducated people yelling in all caps: “Leaks Confirmed!”
Now, they’re fucking stalling with a cheesy video so Masuda can get on stage.
I don’t know why but I liked the guy host better….
She seems like she doesn’t really care… Idk why..
$25k for 1st place TCG
$10k for 1st Place Video Game
you guys…
*Scholarship or Cash
I’m Really not into tcg.. so I don’t understand.. but I bet their parents are happy ?
Looks like I arrived just in time. Let the flames burn.
Well everyone, I’m off to college tomorrow for my senior year! I’ll still be on occasionally but my schedule is always crazy busy during the year. Come November, I don’t plan on being on at all so I can protect myself from any leaks.
I’ve been around for a few years but this summer was when I actually created an account. It was a mistake to not make one sooner. I want to thank all of you for the fun conversations I had on this site. I really loved speculating and discussing leaks/ reveals. This really was a fun summer with you all!
Thanks and keep being an awesome, welcoming community! I can’t wait to come back!
Happy fall, everyone!
Happy fall to you!!! It was wonderful having you on here and I hope we can chat with you soon!
I’ll still be on a bit tonight, but I have to keep roaming around my house finding what I missed when I packed! So much to do!!! 🙂
MASUDA!
Come on Sun And Moon Come on!
lol, That kid just ran right up to the stand
Lucky Kid.
The kid flat out ignored Masuda. Should be jail sentenced
I didn’t notice.. lol
Those kids who don’t know the people behind their favorite things |:(
why are they all so awkward omg 😛
They’re all introvert geeks lel
maybe some of the kids but I don’t think they all are
??? noticed
He’s a good-looking guy, I must say.
Who?
probably the tcg masters runner up, he was the most attractive one tbh (out of the 4 masters, the rest are children so)
I think Wolfe is cute.. and the creators
well, I mean, everyone is someones type right
Anaheim??? Ok..
Should’ve been Hawaii again….
Maybe too expensive a trip for some.. hmm
Tru tru….
I have a feeling that’s it 🙁
There isn’t going to be anything. They didn’t last year. They revealed Poken Tournement for the Wii U at the start of the event. Nothing after
Yup that’s it…
I know I just said my goodbyes, but I have to say that from a creator’s standpoint, it must be so cool to have people so obsessed with what you made. Not only that, but these people are playing with the characters you either created, designed, marketed, etc. depending on who you are on the team! So neat!!!
Especially with GO where basically EVERYONE is playing with Pokemon.
That’s it! See you guys all later!
Looks like Serebii is in a joking mood.
Nothing was shown
No tea, no shade, but y’all that was lame. Boring,
Wat the hell is that???? http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1471821596958.png
It was for just in case…
??
It is a place holder… For if they revealed anything. So they could post the information quickly.
oh dam y serebii delete this ?
Nothing was revealed
oh ok an error then.
Wtf
What?
Nothing
So you just said that for no reason?
We got no news just the location
Yeah.
Nintendo
We sat all day for nothing
No. . . The championships are Very important
True but no new news ?
Hit head on desk
Nothing better than lying in bed, laptop on the lap and watching old DBZ episodes 😀
Play Pokemon . .. Now. ?
Tomorrow. Its like 01:30 right now, i need some sleep in a while and gaming would make me forget that lol
… ?.
Is it done no new news or is there more
It is done no news
wait we won’t receive news?
Just leaving this here
http://pre13.deviantart.net/ce99/th/pre/i/2016/232/b/c/terrible_terrifying_turtonator_by_zadumavi-daenz3h.png
Reminds me of Gumball, Darwin and Anais’ Turtle
(Refresh)
Can’t believe this ought to be the same Pokémon
http://img14.deviantart.net/1e56/i/2016/232/a/e/turtonator_by_shininghaxorus-daeny4e.jpg
damn!
I’m bored. I’m gonna draw something.
Any suggestions?
Draw my Nuzlocke team! Empoleon, Luxray, Scizor, Gallade, Rapidash and Togepi!
I was looking for something a little smaller scale (^_^;)
Sorry! I’m just hyped up, because I’m close to the league!
Marshadow….starters evolution expectation.
Maybe Marshadow
wat u think it’s gonna be ?
Judging by it’s name… a swamp monster.
I write many theory about him I didn’t know if u read it but I don’t think his name is based on marsh or swamp wat ever …I think it based on Scorpio the ruler of mars ….but I don’t mind seeing ur idea.
Hmm I believe the dolphin or Scorpio
I can’t see him as a dolphin maybe pisces.
Draw God tier Bidoof
Specify
idk just like a really over powered bidoof that shows no mercy 😛
Wow, you’ve gone through 3 avatars in 2 days 😛
what can I say, much like my personality my avatar choices are ever changing 😛
Draw a Lilo and Stitch Crossover!
(Replace Stitch with Sableye.)
I’ll definitely do that! 😀
Glad you liked my idea!
Cross-Gen evolutions HAS to return somehow! sure Megas and Alolan formes are a nice new mechanic but its time for a major lore update on Dunsparce, Corsola and Qwilfish!
They need to stop making forgettable pokemon and the first step is to give some love to the shitty ones they’ve left out to dry
Yasss! And branch evolutions need to come back too! Corsola is da bomb! Also actually they all are, all three need some evolutions.
Heliolisk needs another evo!
Maybe Heliolisk may get a Mega Evolution.
I prefer evo over mega, but at least it would be something. It just looks midstage…
no rainbow greninja?
Did anyone watch the Olympic Closing Ceremony’s ending? TOKYO 2020 IS GONNA BE GOOD! (It featured Pokemon and Mario and stuff)
Omg yes the closing ceremony was awesome!
Tokyo’s opening AND closing will be awesome
I hope so, japan has a lot of mixed culture which can be used in them to make them really special and unforgettable ceremonies! Too bad we have to wait 4 years ??
I’ll be in 12th grade by then.
Wowzers im in 12th right now, ill be in my 4th year in college by then lol
Wowzers……I just graduated college in May……….You guys are young lol
I was confused for a second because you and green have almost identical profile pics haha
Oh jeez sorry hahahaha
We used to have the exact same profile pic except with a different zoom lol
By then Gen.8 or even a Gen.9 will be out and it might hint and reveal things
Hey guys i promise you this is my last comment as guest but ive noticed that lately vgc championsips have been in californi, so could this be hinting towards a california based region sort of how hawaii being used multiple times as the host of the championships hinted to alola or am i just overthinking things?
Are you gonna use the account name “Anon”
Yes and the profile pic you gave me xD
Good 🙂
Did you make your account yet?
Maybe, I recall 2010 and 2012 World Championships happening in Hawaii.
But they usually take place in San Diego for convenience.
Well I’m back from sausage party…
I feel dirty…
How was it?
Raunchy, racist, horrifying and a little bit unspeakable…
So pretty good
May see horrible things in my night terrors along with the stuff I saw tonight… Burn that bridge when I pass it
Pretty solid description
So, i want to see this movie, are telling me i shouldnt watch it?
oh wow i was there too
Okay… I know that movie’s script
Was the scene where the four did the… ermmmmm, graphic thing…. how bad was that?
wow saw this on reddit, Really amazing putting the new TCG art on the boxes
https://i.redd.it/in5r38986pgx.png
rf
This is what i expect the gen 8 or gen 9 graphics to look like xD
At least as good as Battle Revolution, if not better!
Better clarity than BR. Probably like Pokken if your gonna compare it to something we have
I think Pokken graphics is overkill for a handheld. 🙂
Well of course depends on if the NX is a handheld/hybrid and is actually stronger than Wii U…
True
My only hope of getting an NX is saving enough money or if it has some kind of new technology (in which case, my parents will buy it)
I dont buy that the NX will be a handheld/Hybrid can’t see a portable just dance 😉
True.
Well, after all how am I gonna dance when the directions are on the screen I’m holding… heh heh heh.
someone should make printable versions like this for people to use when the game comes out, Id sure as heck put them on my case
way better!
I drew something (They’re my Australian starters. A Grass/Flying Sugar Glider, a Fire/Ice Theory Dragon and a Water/Fighting BOX Jellyfish. Bonus:Marshadow) (refresh)
You should click on the starters picture cuz it’s kinda blurry when it’s small
I once made a Australian starter trio
A Racoon with Grass Boomerangs
A Fire Koala that’s all I had
And a Water Platypus
I would’ve done a Koala and a Platypus, but ehh.
I was gonna change the Koala to a Wombat and it would be for finals
Raccoon- Grass/Dark
Wombat- Fire/Rock or Ground
Platypus- Water/Poison
Fun fact: Wombats have square poos to prevent them from rolling down hills/mountains
Cool!
I KNOW 😀
I own a working boomerang
Cool! I thought it was a neat plan knowing Australia Boomerangs works
I always had a Racoon Starter in mind called Racboom. its a pokemon with a explosive personality final evolution type is Grass/Dark
or Grass/Electric
For the haters (I know there are none, but still): I had this idea long before Crabrawler was revealed.
don’t worry I believe this.
Australian eh? I recommend checking out Pokemon Spectrum, it has really nice fan ones too :3
Cool I made an Australian starter trio as well. A grass thorny devil, a fire scorpion and a water dolphin (refresh)
I like the grass starter!
Wow, that’s a first. Everyone usually goes with Scormal or Findol
Im special.
hey hey hey looks like throwing Pyukumuku back to the ocean can actually be done!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jgZhBxhyQA
That looks AWESOME!!!!!! XD
ITS CRY IS SO CUTE!!!
(Where is this from exactly? Like from how long ago)
saw this on reddit just an hour ago actually!
I want one as a pet XD
I love this mon
Question, do you think Pyukumuku will evolve?
