It isn’t a REACT article or video, because I wouldn’t want to be accused of copyright infringement, but I am taking a look at the Pokémon TCG XY expansion Steam Siege today! I was kindly sent some boosters and both of the theme decks free of charge and now I get to share my thoughts with all of you. I’ve included both a text and video take on it, but if you want the full dramatic experience I suggest you watch the video first (or at least the booster pulls) before reading if possible.
Booster Pulls
Steam Siege has some great cards, many of which I wanted. With no BREAK cards to my name, my biggest hope was to pull at least one and, if I were really lucky, get the Yanmega Break card. There are also some normal cards that I wanted, namely Seedot and its evolutions.
Now what did I actually pull? Not the cards I had hoped going in, but still found some gems nonetheless. Luckily I did get Seedot and will definitely count that as a win.
- Uncommons: Dewott, Drifblim (x3, 1 reverse-holo), Fletchinder (x2), Gardevoir Spirit Link (x2), Greedy Dice (x2), Klefki, Lampent, Monferno (x2, 1 reverse-holo), Shieldon, Tangrowth (x2)
- Rares: Cobalion, Galvantula, Gardevoir EX (holo), Spiritomb, and Yveltal (holo)
I don’t have a vast breadth of knowledge when it comes to the Pokémon TCG, so how good those cards are competitively I couldn’t tell you, but my two favorites were definitely Gardevoir EX and Yveltal which both have great designs.
The bad news is, of course, I still need to buy a few more boosters to get a BREAK card to add to my collection…
Theme Decks
The Steam Siege expansion has two pre-made decks that can be a good starting point for players looking to build their own, but don’t want to construct a deck from scratch. The Gears of Fire deck is Fire and Steel-type and centers around Volcanion and the Ring of Lightning deck focuses on Hoopa Unbound and contains Psychic and Electric-type cards.
Of the two, I definitely liked Ring of Lightning more because I’ve always had an affinity for Psychic-type cards and also due to the fact that Volcanion is not really a Pokémon that appeals to me. If I’m going to battle someone, I’d like to at least use cards of Pokémon that I enjoy. Just makes victories all the more sweet.
One thing that I was disappointed about in RoL was that it included multiple Litwick and Lampent cards, but no Chandelure! Looks like I won’t be swinging from the chandeliers tonight.
Giveaway
We’re also going to be starting the first of several giveaways with a very special Pokémon TCG: Mythical Pokémon Collection—Manaphy set! This includes a special Manaphy card, pin and two Pokémon Generations boosters! We’ll announce how you can get a chance to win it tomorrow so stick around!
Hope you guys enjoyed our little dabble in the TCG world! If you’re eager to learn more about the competitive aspect of the game I recommend you head over to PokéBeach for some in-depth strategy articles (and hey, WPM didn’t even pay me to plug his site).

FEATURE DISCUSSION: Pokémon Generations Anime Shorts



















I fell out of the card game in black and white. I mainly just buy a booster pack every now and then to causally collect them. Those break cards look crazy though
Hey Star! I’ll message you later on tonight once I get home. I’m in orientation for a new job right now 😛
As an author? 😀
No. I’ll be working at a hospital. I wish I was good enough to be an author lol
I’ve been collecting the cards since they first came out way back when I was a wee lad. I’ve never tried playing the game because it just never appealed to me
I’ve always wanted to collect all the full art cards to use for tokens in Magic and YuGiOh. The game is fun, but I no longer have time for competitive card games and my friends only play Magic casually.
I’ve been collecting them since they first came out here in Canada, and I still do.
I never got into the whole battle scene, mainly because my mom threatened my brothers and myself, that if she ever caught us battling with them that she would through all of our cards in the trash. (She was one of those parents that believed that Pokemon was evil. So we were very lucky that she even let us have them. LOL She likes Pokemon herself now. Her faves being Bulbasaur, and any horse like Pokemon.) Of course she got better with that over the years, to the point that she didn’t care what we did with them, but I never got into the whole battling thing. I collect almost any type of card, except for Magic the gathering, those one I will not touch with a 10 foot pole. Those ones I myself believe are evil, as I’ve seen some pretty creepy shit happen to some people who got involved with those cards, things I’d rather not experience myself.
lmao Magic is just a card game man. No different from Pokémon or YuGiOh. In my experience, excluding Pokémon cause I haven’t met many play so of that TCG around where I live, Magic players are often far more mature and respectful towards others than YuGiOh players.
I won’t touch Yu-Gi-Oh anymore. I don’t understand Magic so I don’t bother with those either.
Ever since I got a holographic Zekrom out of a booster pack I pinched back in the beginning of black and white
I’ve been shoplifting at least 3-9 packs a month collecting rare holographic cards
Wow. Shoplifting. You’re so cool.
Are you joking?
I’ll show you the suitcase I used to hold the rejects after I get outta work
Give me the codes.
Too late I gave them to my brother’s gurlfriend
Lame
Wait was this just a regular holo Zekrom or a full art?
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51-rvRRxWeL.jpg
I probably wouldn’t admit to shoplifting on here.
Fine
Our safety and yours!
What the heck, Earthen?
I love the TCG. It’s MUCH better than VGC. Everyone uses something different and they all have equal chances to win because of odds. I use a Flareon EX deck at my local tournaments and my ball of fluff won me second place. Lost to a Greninja Break deck very last round…
Once you get into TCG it’s a lot of fun
I wish I could get into the TCG. I remember really enjoying it in middle school. I don’t really have friends who play it though and I prefer physical cards to the online game
I bet there is a league near you (if you live in the US).. should be easy to get started again……except for money!
I quite like the Online version in comparison because they give out free EX cards/Boosters easily and the trading is fast! You can even buy bulk code cards from ebay to get started quickly (paying for digital, ugh!).
In all honestly, I would rather go back to the tables and play again myself, but I wonder if the money is worth spending on things that rotate so quickly. Also, friends too 🙂
Part of the problem is that I like to play with older cards (ie. from Heart Gold and Soul Silver) and I believe those aren’t allowed in leagues? I don’t really feel motivated enough to make a deck out of new cards, not out of laziness, just out of lack of intrest. Would be fun thoygh
True.. I don’t think they casually make Legacy tournaments. Maybe friends that get together like that.
The game is still fun (got back into it last week in fact, online). I was surprised by some deck ideas! The amount of people playing and the diversity is amusing. Though the learning curve is rather scary (rules, cards, etc).
I love playing the TCG. Steam seige is such a good set I play two decks greninja break or mega alakazam ex and mega gengar ex decks.
THESE ARE POKEMON CARDS. The recent pokemon cards don’t even look like them anymore.. Absolute trash!
What makes those Pokémon cards and not the ones released today?
Nostalgia levels
Oh god. A TCG genwunner. Someone swat it! Keep it away!
thats why sandshrew will always be superior to sandslash
Non Alolan is best
Seriously if Pokemon were real I’d definitely have a Sandshrew as a lapdog
right? I agree Non Alolan is the most perfect pkmn ever
They don’t have to look like them? I have love for both old and new, as with all parts of the franchise.
Lol they look exactly like the XY evolutions series coming out in November.
wut?
Chill bro
always chill men
Guess What, the next Expansion, the final X/Y expansion, WILL look like this. For nostalgia sake.
There you go no need to complain.
Nicee!
Which one is that? I’d like to see what they do with them.
Evolutions is then ext Expansion. Here is a peak of some of the new cards, as you can see many are simple rereleases, while others are new in the same style.
http://www.pokebeach.com/2016/09/20th-anniversary-set-evolutions
Thanks, it’s a shame about no remake for the Venusaur line, I’d have really liked those.
Me too but for Squirtle line.
That said these cards make the original versions Legal Again, so that’s something to look forward to.
Though I seem to have a few of those bottom ones already, they came in Generations Packs
All I wanted was that Holo Machamp.
Exactly what i mean by trash, sorry xD. Way too much
I meant the Machamp card in photo you posted.
my brother has the whole set from the first generation
Jealous!
I used to have a bunch of them but one day my mom threw all of them away without asking
I think it would get boring if the cards just had regular art and nothing special. Level X’s and EX’s are really fun and spice up the game
I don’t agree.. With time, people have learned to make better designs.. Jungle/Fossil cards pretty much squares with text. Also, the game is quite different now, so I’m not sure you can compare them..
It’s funny I recently got back into TCG and it’s a lot more fun ten I remembered. It’s annoying with all those “fake attacks/moves” but it was definitely a heck of a good time. Even pulled a Volcanion EX recently!
Greninja Break makes me hate Greninja even more
I like Greninja tho. Everything except its tongue. Besides that its one of my favorites..
Competitive everything makes me hate it. It’s sooooo fan serviced
Im gonna be honest i only collected the cards because they looked cool
I haven’t collected Pokémon cards since 2002 when the majority of my collection was stolen, including the rare Charizard card and Ancient Mew.
Is it tomorrow yet?
We have like 18 hours or less
Serious question here: how many of you actually buy the TGC cards? And if you do, do you actually play the game? My brother is obsessed with the cards (but much less with the video games, which bothers me for some odd reason) but doesn’t actually play the game itself. On top of that, he only cares about the special EX cards, which he might not even get at all.
I buy packs and the collectors boxes all the time but never play. I just like to collect them. I don’t care what I get as long as the art looks cool
Also I can’t watch the video because I don’t have headphones on me. >.<
I will occasionally get packs (Usually at Dave & Busters) and put them in this binder of cards then forget about them for a little bit. I love it
The only time I ever care about them are when a new generation comes out, and even them I usually just trade things to my brother for some cards of new pokemon.
I haven’t bought packs since the days of Gen 4.
1) The thrill of opening them is too addicting and will lead to money spent
2) I have no one to play with anymore so it’s pointless
Haha, the “thrill of opening them” is exactly why my brother buys them. He says that he needs “the rush you get when you rip open the plastic”. Sounds like a drug addiction lol.
It really is addicting lol
Tomorrow’s trailer predictions:
– Official L(R?)ugarugan reveal
– Cutiefly evo
– Pikipek 3
– Alolan Persian
———–
So really I’m not expecting much new stuff, maybe 1 new pokemon (if we’re not counting cutiefly evo as a “new” pokemon) and 1 new alola form.
During vacation I was able to come up with 4 more fakemon ideas! That brings my fake dex to around 130! 😀
My ideas for anyone curious are a three stage Water/Poison Squid based on an oil spill, a three stage Water/steel shark line where the final one uses two anchors as weapons, a three stage Poison/Rock Snail line and a three stage Poison/Ice parasite line
I love seeing Fakemon lists, so feel free sometime to tell me what the list is like
Okay! I’ll put my list up at some point. I’m terrible at naming stuff so a lot of my fakemon just have place holder names lol
I can try and help out with a few, but I’m not too great with names either lol
Alright, at this point the NX is almost certainly delayed IMO. If it isn’t delayed, then I don’t know what they’re doing sitting on this information and holding it back for so long. You need time to advertise, generate hype, produce units (well they might already be doing that), etc.. Plus it’s really unlikely that they would make an unannounced announcement (bleh), so if they announced an announcement today, it’d still be around 2 weeks I’d say before we get any info.
Sometimes you’ve just gotta wonder if Nintendo knows what the hell they’re doing.
I honestly had a lot of faith in Kimishima; he’s a succesful buisnessman, so he of all people should know, but I’m starting to lose confidence in him. I guess it’s too early to say that though.
They need to go third party…It makes no sense for every single title of theirs to be exclusive. Appealing to smartphone gamers is not the same.
I feel like I’m the only one who doesn’t care about that. I mean, I literally only play nintendo games, they’re the only games that appeal to me, so unless they really need to to save the company, I don’t think going third party is necessary.
It would generate a lot of revenue. On the downside, it may “kill” their console unless they can offer gamers other incentives to buy it. Obviously they’re allowed to have some exclusives, but it’s not necessary to make all. And even if it killed their console business, I bet anything they’d be making more money by making their titles multiplat than having every single be exclusive.
Eh, I’d rather have a nintendo console. If it’s absolutely necessary to save the company, then go for it. Otherwise, don’t IMO.
I’m not sure what else they can do. Unless the NX can seriously match the PS4 and Xbox, they’ll be in the same hole they’re in now.
Nintendo going third party is the worst possible thing they could do
How? If people are only buying your console for your exclusives (in this day and age) you’re doing something wrong and you’ll get crushed by the superior competition (exactly like they are right now). The times are different now. People need their consoles to do more than one thing now.
Nintendo is a company that tries to expand gaming which is why their systems always differ from their competition greatly. Their hardware is what opens up new gameplay possibilities. If they went third party, their games would be limited to the system.
Well their hardware is lacking quite a bit. If they go at this rate, they won’t be able to sustain themselves forever. They need to do something and let’s hope the NX is that something.
The N64 was revealed on June 23 1996 and released in September of that year. We have time
Those were different times though, when Nintendo was hardly struggling in the console game (sans handheld) like they are today.
Like Ultron said, it was a different time. Now you need more time to make your console successful. It depends how you look at it, but to me they’re really cutting it close.
Maybe? But Nintendo has more eyes on it than ever. Just the announcement would stir a lot of media attention even outside of gaming. This isn’t a Wii U situation where its reveal made it seem like an add on for the wii. It is something entirely new
Which is exactly why they need to announce it earlier. It is something completely new, so they need to get the word out, advertise, promote the thing.
Random Guy: Guys! The NX is going to be revealed tommorow!
Everyone: OHHHHMMMAH GOD YES AIFHWGQW9NDC Q38R
*one day later*
Everyone: I CAN’T BELIEVE WE HAVE BEEN LIED TO!
Every time we get a false rumor they delay the console announcement a day. xD
Not Pokemon-related, but I DID IT!!! (rf) https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/bf2fc78d1eb63e5d970b635737e9d8b215d8bde24c7b5ad296ed337deaebfafe.jpg

Well you got some very promising Alola Form ideas, and would add on a good spin to old Pokemon like your Alolan Gyarados artwork. Besides, if they can’t make a Mega Flygon, they’re gonna need some new eyes to help out lol
Nice designs dude!
Does anybody else have a hand held and a console/PC game they play side by side? Like you focus on one for each system? Right now I’m playing Pokemon Black and Twilight Princess
Sort of? I mean I haven’t played console games in a while, but I used to do that. I’m playing two 3ds games though (but one is new leaf, so it’s only maybe 15 mins per day).
So I’m thinking we’ll get a new pokemon tomorrow for sure. Hopefully it’all be an ice type, though a dark type would be cool. I had the most absurd, sad thought that maybe there won’t be any new ice types- just alola forms.
Cutiefly evo is practically a given. I imagine that trailers are meticulously combed through for spoilers- they show us only what they want us to see.
Another Alolan form would be lovely.
And of course, Lugarugen’s English reveal.
Cutiefly’s evo might not even be shown. Take Trevenant from XY lol. “Is that pokemon even confirmed yet?”
But as for new pokemon, I realised we didnt get a new ice type yet. Only alolan forms.
Yeah, though trevanant was in a movie credits trailer right? Not sure how that makes any real difference. I’d like the evo to be shown, but ice is my favorite type so that is my main desire. It needs buffed. That could happen due to strengths/weaknesses being changed, or just getting better ice types that can handle the other types. There’s a reason dragon types really weren’t merged by fairy: there are a lot of weak fairy pokemon and hardly any dragon lines are weaker. Most dragon lines are three stage, pseudos, or legendaries.
Plus the only new dark type so far is Lugarugan, and that’s not even confirmed.
Of course we’ll get a new ice type. That’d be ridiculous if we didn’t get at least 1, we have 7(?) fairies. I don’t feel like we’ll get more than 2 lines, so I feel like next region will be like sinnoh to compensate (maybe it’ll be Canada, eh?).
Yeah but even Sinnoh didn’t have much. Idk, of course there will be one, but my brain went ahead and thought the unthinkable for a hot second.
I am still wondering y Z didn’t revel way the point of doing this ?…..I can’t find the answer.
This is incredible (rf) https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5a68e0afe6490f4ef7a7d1d6a15e813d0728cdfe632d016f5273b2a3a61a04ba.png
WHAT THE HELL
“E for everyone”
Well that started out okay and went downhill real fast…
When Tumblr decides to make a pokemon game…
Guys I think this might be real!
It’s clearly fake. They didn’t even mention Solgaleo and Lunala, they said “box pokemon”. Red flag right there.
Watch how tomorrow they reveal all of this. XD
Before I go to bed I’ll comment my thoughts/expectations on today’s new info:
Rockruff evo English name
1-2 Alola formes
New Ultra Beast
1-2 new Pokemion
I dont expect starter evos till next month tbh
Hahahaha
I love the guy who made this video…. Stopped on the first card just to comment:
Best comment evvverrrrr
(The shellos/twilight)
I love the guy too XuX
It was a really smooth soft cool video to watch…
Its been a looong time since I treated myself with the tcg( my last deck was the erika themed….)
And i really liked the metal coin… I had the lugia one…
And last but not least… I felt like this boosters have the same cards… Not lot of variety…
Golden_Monferno’s comment below gave me a thought: if you could nominate someone here to be hired if GF was scouting PJ (just run with it ok?) who would you nominate? I would probably go with Earthen, over the time I’ve been here I’ve seen tons of great ideas and names that I think could be official.
All hail Earthen
Okay dont get a big head -_-
Everyone loves you

I made the truth…i made my truth
I don’t get what people see in “modern art”.
http://www.streetcarnage.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/modern-art.jpg
So Elegant ;-;
Just brings tears to my eyes. I’ll buy it for $OverPriced
woah. 10/10 just enough paint
Such beauty
why is the only thought going through my head is to violently assault those canvasses with either paint or feces
Or channel your destructive energy into a painting of Mona Lisa with a Rhyperior head
nawwww if i were ever going to do that i want it to be Discord
Like for Pokemon ideas? Probably Earthen. But I do love Green’s alolan Magikarp line idea
I’m going off history here, but the Gyarados was really good!
SexyScizor has some great ideas, I would recommend him
totally not me *hides badge*
Umm… Hmm… That’s a tough one, but I’ll say Earthen because if his ideas, Star because she’s great at drawing and Malco because he’s also grat at drawing. (Oh and the guy who drew Dragorn, which is the middle form of Dunsparce and Drampa. I don’t remember who it was)
and that govnah guy and his shinies 😉 lol jk
I’d recommend you for the shiny department BECAUSE of your Bewear/Stufful shiny
also my evolution methods lol. maybe i already work there ;). maybe my new profile pic and name has a meaning 😮
Aww compliments
Riolu grew up and did big things and name change
I’m serious o_o
Alolan Mr. Mime (rf) https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d34cbc3c9b38d8f13ee3f751384b0d9b06c41529998aa6e60e4529f369f6b074.jpg
Yes.
Damn, I was really excited for a moment, then I refreshed. I like his Rayquaza shirt.
i dont think it looks like that bad from this image i get a kanto series vibe from the way the art looks
ah the memories of ORAS waiting days, found this in my computer, this was made basically around the same time i started using photoshop (rf)
http://i.imgur.com/5aGPKID.jpg
and when i was also a goat with a eyepatch
kill it before it lays eggs
too late 😉
I remember the GovnahSkiddo days. Good times. xD
found a emerald play through card i made for my youtube channel fun fact it had 2 pokemon i actually used in oras XD
I wish I kept some of my old cringe. I can’t believe I actually used some of the terrible art as a profile picture
thanks for cringing XD this actually the only work i dont cringe at.
No, I’m talking about my old art! This is really cute!
haha thanks! i’ve been trying to make a profile pic that brings the skiddo persona and the new one together
Also I lost everything on my computer, and this is reminding me of the all stuff I lost. Dx I didn’t back up either, all I have left is my Togeking picture. I had a few towns a map of a fan game on there! Ugh, well I’m pretty sure that soon I’m getting my family’s old desktop, so I’m planning to start it again on there. It’s more powerful anyway so that’s good. That just goes to show you need to back up, I wish I’d listened to those annoying notifications lol.
Speaking of old images: Does anyone have the image of the “PokeJungle family” of the XY days? It was the characters from our distinct avatars with a background of Kalos. I kinda wish I hadn’t lost that.
i lost mine, i still wish we had a family photo with all of us designed like trainers
or an anime intro….
life in pokejungle was the closest we got lol
It’s on my old computer. That’s dead now.
welp……we’ll preform an RESURRECTION!!!!!
*strikes with lightning*
*puts on my Dark Elemental Shaman robe and mask*
Now with my acurssed magicks, we grant this computer WITH LIFE
*BRAPPBLBLBABARABLE*
I had to factory reset my laptop because of a virus, I lost everything, and that’s where I had it, so . . .
SAME!
I’m gonna take Earthen’s idea and draw our “Pokejungle Family Portrait”
It’ll be us as trainers, I won’t have enough space to draw our Pokemon, but I’ll draw us. I’m gonna need basic info like Hair color and stuff, but not yet. It’ll be my summer project. I’ll find some way you can take a survey (probably Google Forms) and put in the basic info.
should we pose naked?
Trick question: yes
Life drawing 😉
D:
I’m not qualified to draw that
i’ll give you some “inspiration
http://www.clker.com/cliparts/4/2/1/b/11971009421578933719mcol_sausage.svg.hi.png
*draws a bunch of sausages*
No one wants to see your wiener Earthen
i disagree
Give me proof. Show me a comment where someone said they wanted to see your wiener. 😛
alright just give me time to doctor some photos
k I’ll totally believe it once I see it 😛
Found the evidence (rf)
Totes legit.
Inspired milk is better
Lol, I’m actually drawing a new profile picture so I guess you’ll see that
Alright 🙂
I kinda know what you look like tho
It’s what I’m going for
here is the full thing

Ooh, I like the Undertale insignia!
Nice shirt 😀
This looks absolutely beautiful to be honest you are a really good drawer!
It isn’t that good though 😮 , thank you so much! Wow that makes me happy
Oh I guess if we get a pokemon I’ll go with Lopunny
Oh I guess it’s accessories. Maybe a bow like on Mega Lopunny’s head
http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/_ui/img/_en/august/art/Mega_Lopunny.png
Ah, the purple haired avatar is back, yay! 😀
Yessss <3 I wish I could have Lopunny and Gardevoir incorporated as well, but I just wanna stick with one Pokemon detail xD
But I’ll draw Paul with Sewaddle
without a doubt, perch it right on his shoulder
Can’t wait 🙂 (I sort of wish an Espeon could be near me but I see why)
I could draw an Espeon hat or something ¯_(ツ)_/¯
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS <3 Oh and my avi is literally me, so yeah 😀 less typing for me xD
What if you incorporated Pokemon into the trainer designs? For example, PercyEspeon could have a headband or something with Espeon’s colors, or Earthen with a Rhyperior vest (or most importantly, me with a Banette hoodie) :p
I like the Espeon hat idea better, but something like that for everyone would be awesome <3 😀
I didn’t see that until after I typed my comment, but yeah, a hat sounds much better.
i think that’s a very acceptable idea
That’s the plan 😉
Sounds neat, I can’t wait to see the final product!
What? My summer ended like a month ago, how did you not have summer yet? xD Also great idea, can’t wait! 😀
Oh, if we’re doing Pokemon accessories, maybe a Togekiss hat?
I DID have Summer -_-
I meant next Summer
Oh! Lol, hopefully we’re all still here. xD
I will 😀
If I’m not dead, I probably will! 🙂
I’ll about 95% likely I’ll be around
1%- I get bored (hardly likely)
1%- I get in a fight
1%- I find somewhere else
1%- Friends try to force me (not happening)
0.000000001%- I despise Pokemon
Other- ???
Same
95% will be here
2% some crazy stuff happens and I can’t get on
1% Something sad happens
0.01% Pokejungle closes down
1.09% something else?
Eh, I’m not a huge optimist.
97% – I’ll be here
1% – The Internet gets cancelled lol
1% – Pokemon gets cancelled
1% – terminal disease
95% here
2% School/marching band kills me
1% Pokemon is cancelled
1% Pokejungle gets closed down
1% The world ends or something kills me
Guys, they might seriously announce the NX this week. It’s a code red situation this time. I won’t bother writing up all the information because most people here don’t care. Either way, Pokémon news at 6AM, woohoo!
I care Kevin o_o
A person on Neogaf and another person on Twitter have indicated that retailers are going to Nintendo’s headquarters in Europe for “announcement within days”. A director at Platinum Games said “looking forward to September 20” on Twitter. Multiple other sources like NicoWav and Reddit’s verified leaker untypedhero have indicated this day as well. This is the closest we’ve been to “it’s happening” ever.
Don’t you think they would announce the time of such a large announcement?
no because its dropping like a mix tape
It seems very unprofessional to drop an announcement of that scale with no prior warning for people to prepare.
honestly this event could just be to show off the NX but more disclosure agreement like as they prepare for the public reveal .
I’d settle for anything at this point, I’m so hungry for info.
I just hope it doesnt end up as a hype failure
I feel like they might announce tomorrow that the NX reveal will be happening on Friday, Nintendo’s 127th anniversary.
hm interesting note. the 20th? so we could see NX tmmr or Wednesday. I really hope its not a hybrid…..
I just want a natural console. Kimishima even stated its far away from what the wii and wii u was, so having a touch pad controller again isnt that smartest move. even tho the wii u gamepad was actually really good just had a really a purpose
*never
Nintendo knows what their doing isn’t worked. They are failing in the console industry. They said it would be something completely new, so a regular console is pretty much deconfirmed.
They’re
if the wii u was named differently i bet it would done a bit better in sales. the system is great and all actually from what nintendo produced for it was really great and stuff, its just 3rd party didnt know what to do with that game pad
Agreed. Honestly it was doomed from the start.
8 AM for me. I have to wait 7 hours. I had a late start when they promised information last week, but we all now now that turned out.
Haha we’ve said this for like 5 weeks now lol.
Earthen wants co-op online rpg with VR goggles with several genres
Fantasy, Sci-fi, Modern with power gloves and weapons
I’ll believe it when I see it.
Please based Nintendo
Hope that tomorrow won’t be like the 14th lol….
Earthen grows weary…. i will retire for the night
i hope i don’t wake up at 5AM and stay awake mike last week
with my final breath i hope we see some new new pokes
Earthen, seriously… start writing poetry. It would be pure beauty
As a poet, I can attest to this statement. Make it happen Earthen. You would be the next Shakespeare.
Quakespeare
“Oh, soft! What light through yonder window breaks!
It is the east and Rhyperior’s the sun”
And Earthen gets angry and murders everyone with a rusty shovel MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAH *Deep inhale* AAAAAAAGHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
:’) True art!
:’) That made me cry Earthen, you’re better than every poet I’ve ever read
You do realize I’m just some unhinged lunatic
I know 😉 But that makes the best poets.
Like Manson
That was apparent from your first post.
such perfection

I am Pearl right now
In fact, I’m Pearl all the time
Pearl best bird
https://youtu.be/wV4mN8YLM_4
Legit, I can get pretty salty irl.
I am more her with the confidence issues/self-worth issues. As well as I know very well about unrequited love.
In reality I’m probably close to Rose. More of in terms of being whatever I want I guess? Like, Bismuth’s talk about Rose telling her she didn’t have to be what she was “made” to do really resonates with me
Yeah, I definitely got that feeling too. I relate also to her ultimate care of all life
Same here…….Lizzie…..
Can I be Garnet
No sorry you have to be the heaven beetle.
Dibs on Lapis
No. You are all the heaven beetle.
inb4 they are a second perma fusion like Garnet
Fine fine
Garnet is my fav though. Garnet is just so savage.
Girl you just said you were pearl
I’m both 😛
jk jk jk I am Pearl. I just aspire to be Garnet, due to her savageness
You savage? It is to laugh
Key word, aspire 😛
And second, irl, I actually am super savage and sassy. It’s just hard to convey over the Internet
Pray tell doth thou seen the redness in your heart?, the fires that course through your veins with indomitable fury? The savage primal might that springs forth with blinded animosity? The wounds they not hurt, you grit and bite your steel and let loose a thunderous howl striking fear in those who foolishly stand before you as you cleave them in twain, at hour’s high all is left, is blood
The poetry is real xD
And mostly my savage/sassiness is not rage-induced. I mostly do it for fun
Yo this is the Essence of what I truly am
I am a Beserker
It’s kinda hard for me to imagine a sassy Percy. You are usually really chill and nice
I am more sassy when it comes to people I really know. And it’s sassy more so in the smart a** way
I also kinda like Peridot. But idk if we’re much alike.
Obviously I’m Obsidian
If they’re ever introduced, you get dibs
Agreed, earthen is a great writer.
I’m expecting a small announcement. 1 Alola form, 1 new Pokemon, Lugarugan, and that’s it. Short, to the point, and just to hold us off.
I wonder if Magearna will be an event pokemon? That’s the feel I get from it, but when would they release it? Volcanion is being released internationally with the movie so if they just released Magearna later it’d feel random.
Japanese players got tokens with a qr code on it to get magearna when they went to the movies I think. I could be wrong, but I could swear I saw tjat somewhere.
is going to be released on november for sun and moon if im aware
It’s been referred to as a mythical Pokemon many times, so yes, it is an event legend.
So I’m back sorry IPod’s Misconvenience so I’m off to bed and will be back for the reveal let’s hope it’s a good one!
Uggh, I have to wait 7 hours after the announcement to watch it! I’ll miss all the excitement. D:
That’s disappointing I’m gonna use my internet at school to get it and cheat the system at my school
I’m not in a position to do that. The teachers are SUPER strict about technology because we use iPads in class and last year we had a huge problem with playing games in class. xD
I meant more around Lunch lucky I have it around 10:00
Wow that’s an early lunch! I have it at 12:00 and I already feel like it’s too early.
What time is it at? (Central)
8 AM. AKA the worst possible time.
🙁
I felt so lucky to have a late start on the 14th so I could watch the info, but now I just kinda feel cheated.
Well gotta do homework so I guess I’ll leave some concept sketches I did for a character made by @sexyscizor89:disqus for a pokemon story he’s writing

I love the one on the left! But the other one kind wierds me out and also reminds me of Sans.
haha, yeah I kinda see that! She reminds me of Undyne a bit. Probably the eye patch. The one on the left is mainly to get an idea of the full body
I feel like it’s the lack of color or shade that gives me the “sans” impression, I didn’t notice the eyepatch on the right one. Great drawing though!
It’s a beautiful day outside
The birds are singing
flowers are blooming
On days like this
Kids like you
Should be burning in hell
Wow such original writing! You could really be a writer!
You should read my tormented poetry I wrote in high school
It’s a beautiful day outside
The birds are singing
flowers are blooming
On days like these
Kids like you
Should be playing Nintendo games
It’s a kids outside
The flowers and burning
The days are singing
On flowers like these
Birds like you

I sing this all the time… Also “I’m the bad guy”
What? xD

I suggest at least putting it on the forums as well so if people miss it in the comments they can access it there.
I was gonna
Great!
Is collecting the cards worth it? I’d like to start collections for my kids ( I already have a small collection for both) but I’m not sure if the newer cards are even worth it?
Yes. The newer cards are actually worth a lot.
Anybody seen this? Is it fake? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/555c4df7edd4997931c4258a7b8da778000282773b45e1044b82743456617577.jpg

Found it on 4chan, no idea haha. I mean, it’s kinda cool but figured it’s fake cause it’s not going around eveywhere
Probably fake but it has already stolen my heart
Obviously a fake lol

I’ve been wanting to restart a pkm game but I’m so tired of XY and ORAS. I’m really thinking about restarting SS now… hmmm, should I?
I LOVE ROWLET but I dislike its evolution. This makes me like Robinhoot some more:
http://img12.deviantart.net/c40d/i/2016/157/9/b/rowlet_senior_by_zacharybla-da5ai7u.jpg
I don’t like its long people legs or the fact that you can’t see its fact. I wanted a big grass horned owl, slightly more detailed than knoctowl
