Passimian is actually wayyyy bigger than that, it’s supposedly as long as Turtonator, though I’m assuming that’s tail included. Still, freakishly big for a lemur!!
So it’s not the supposed rugby monkey?
no it is, it’s just a big rugby monkey
Lemur != Monkey
The original guy didn’t know his biology 😛
Close enough though. Both simians
Actually no, a Lemur isn’t a simian.
It’s a primate, but not a simian.
I don’t know anything about anything
You need more wikipedia in your diet.
I consume 6-8 articles daily.
Yeah probably should’ve done my 8 seconds of research. Bad Star
My favourite article of today was “System-F”
Then why is it “Passimian”?
Localisation team doesn’t know their biology.
Just look at their names for the Z moves, they clearly get drunk every few days.
Honestly I feel like SM has good designs, but the worst pokemon names of all the generations. Every new batch of information I notice one or two that don’t work out as well as they thought.
Some are good, like Morelull and Lurantis.
Some are plain awful: Wishiwashi, Pulverising Pancake, Stoked Sparksurfer… can’t even remember Pikachu’s awful awful Z move name.
I know the Japanese names were better.
Snorlax’s translated to something like “it uses a serious attack” and Raichu’s was Lightning Surf Ride.
Maybe it plays off the term “Prosimian” for lemurs.
Something I think is interesting: humans are more closely related to lemurs, despite common belief that we’re close to monkeys.
Errr, No, I’m pretty sure we’re closer to monkeys. Read up on your primate phylogeny :p
Look I’m just repeating what my biology teacher told me. xD
well they seem to have gotten confused then haha, because that’s just plain wrong 🙂
Your biology teacher is drunk, fire them immediately.
I don’t think that’s right.
Gorillas and Chimps are our closest relatives. We’re Apes (typically primates without tails), and therefore Simians. Lemurs are not Simians, they are Prosimians (strepsirrhines).
https://kevishere.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/primate_family_tree.png
Also we’re closely related to Orangutans, so Oranguru is probably closer to human 😛
Huh?? No, it’s clearly the “rugby monkey”, but turns out in actual fact that meant “oversized rubgy lemur with monkey features”
Yeah? IDK, cant see him being that big xD
I hope we have trainer photo spots like in XY, so we can easily show off our customization here.
It’d be especially nice of they combined it with the team photo feature from HGSS!
Yeah! But it’s unlikely because if they made models like that they’d likely let us walk with our pokemon.
If we were to count every Evolution Family as 1 Pokemon, how many Pokemon would that actually make?
Between 1-6 of course, unfair to count Gen 7 yet
It would probably take ages to count so I can’t be bothered someone good with maths do it
I’m bored, I’ll take a stab at it, why not? xD
366
Did you actually count or just search for it? xD
Downloaded a table of 721 pokemon, sorted the data into pokemon that evolve from a pokemon and pokemon that don’t evolve from anything (i.e. first forms and non-evolvers), highlighted them and let the software count for me.
366.
Hmm. Efficient.
I’m a programmer, it’s force of habit to use software solutions to these sorts of problems 😛
Wow! Just saw the information, here are all my thoughts:
————————————-
The new pokemon are cool I guess? I don’t hate them like Bewear, but I likely won’t be using them anytime soon. Also, I know that the normal type is a strength instead of a weakness here, but why are they just kinda slapping it onto alot of pokemon that don’t really need it? It seems unnecessary. I feel like ther really missed the mark with Lycanroc’s name. What? Lycanroc? Why isn’t it Lycanthroc? That sounds infinitely better in my opinion. The eevee z move looks cool, but I feel like only fully evolved pokemon should get Z moves. The new amie looks great though! I love how it actually uses location background this time, and Rowlet looks adorable! :O I’m glad we got a look at customization, that’s great. Also having the ability to dye clothing will be so cool! It’ll open up many more possibilites than XY had. Also I like the festival coins thing, I hope they’re easy to get. It was so annoying spending my life savings just to get one shirt in XY. Anyway, we have to wait two weeks for new info. 🙁 I know it’s not that long, but they’ve been spoiling us so much recently, this’ll feel like a huge drought.
https://twitter.com/RealShigeruM/status/778296981076705281
I’m really starting to dislike Z moves. That animation is way too excessive.
^ this.
Also, seems a bit childish or something.. xD
I can tell I won’t be using them often.
I can tell you I wont use them ever. I dislike the idea even more than mega evolution and I really didnt like that xD
Yeah, we already had a meta game changing mechanic. Plus these, if used correctly, seem to all be OHKO. There’s no strategy there, not like mega evolution.
Except Eevee’s which doesn’t do damage, and the examples where they were first introduced didn’t knock the opponent out.
I love Eevee’s Z-Move so much. Like a flashy, better version of geomancy
I’ll think of that next time I see an eevee when battling online. The only real strategy one will never be used. xD
yea! I bet I don’t use them more than once per battle.
I’m 95% sure it will be skippable.
It’s not that it’s too long in that sense, but it’s just like, “why? what does that have to do with pikachu?”
She does the PoIKA
buh dum tisa
The Pika-rena.
Or the PIcKAn Dance wait that won’t work how about Pika-Dokey
Hey~ Pika-rena! Ai!
I can live with the excessive animations, it’s the names that ruin it for me.
Same.
“Thunder Surf Ride” > “Stoked Spark Surfer”
I’m sorry but, thunder surf ride sounds terrible
Stoked Spark Surfer is worse.
no, its actually better
I literally love everything about Sun and Moon other than Kanto Pokémon being the only ones with Alola forms. I can’t handle how hyped I am for these games. x_X
Dislikes so far:
– MAYBE Z moves. I’m kinda on the fence
– Bewear, I have a undying hate for it.
– Lycanroc’s name. WHY ISN’T IT LYCANTHROC?
Lycanthroc sounds like a disease to me.
Lycanroc doesn’t roll of the tongue. Plus the pun is off of Lycanthrope. It even has an “r” after the “th” for the “roc” to use, yet it is called Lycanroc. It seems like bad planning to me.
“Lycan” means wolf (from the greek lykos).
They probably cut out the ‘anthros’ aspect on purpose
to try to stop the furriesto emphasise it’s still just a pokemon.Oh I fully understood the pun, just sounded that way to me. Now I keep calling it Lycanthroc in my mind, I feel Lycanthrok looks better though.
Kind of like Anthrax.
-Z-Moves are awesome. Funny. Fun. Adds a lot to the meta.
-I’m neutral towards him. But my inner contrarian makes me like him due to the hate.
-That seems… Like a non-issue.
Honestly I have absolutely no issue with blindly loving everything GameFreak adds to Pokémon. (Other than contests/musicals. Never got into those.) This isn’t politics. Legitimate world problems do not arise due to blindly supporting something. So I take the opinion of why bother hating something, or parts of something, that I love? I’d rather just enjoy it. So I do. So I will. Everyone else can get upset over this feature or that, I’ll be over here having a god damn blast.
say it louder for the people in the back
I just had a realization. Remember the riddler leaker? He posted a picture of some kind of staff or something sort of shaman-y. That’s Oranguru!
Reminder that the pikachu had to go through really harsh training to learn how to do Z move dancing:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7LhybsL3bw
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDrr1nki5Ic
Seriously though, we have 9 normal types and 7 fairy types so far, and yet we don’t have a single ice or dark type. I really hope we get one of each at least on the 4th. I thought Lycanroc was going to be dark in the midnight form, but it clearly isn’t now, so we’re back at square one.
this is why we should slaughter fairies
Actually I’ve targeted my attacks away from fairy types and onto normal types. Get your punches ready.
http://wowroleplaygear.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Whale-Skin-Theldurins-Fist.jpg
Killing fairies wont give us more dark and ice types
Those fairies are killing all of the dark types!
But it will make Dark Types great again
who said anything about increasing the dark and ice type populace
I WANT FAIRIES TO DIE
I think I understand why you hate fairies now
http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/zelda/images/2/2c/Navi_Artwork.png/revision/latest?cb=20090319134157
nah, fairies are still my favorite type tied with ghost and ice
i hate fairies on two reasons
they took over the meta (and the ones that where reconned are even more annoying)
and two the most important is the birth of stupidity that is the people, everyone everywhere wants fairy type this and this should be fairy that, pisses me off to no end
1. Not really?
2. I guess I can understand that
Other than Sylveon and Clefable I saw most used only but people who liked them
I meant by people
togekiss and azumarril?
Well yes Togekiss yet not Azumarril
then you must be living under a rock
those ones are always on the competitive scene
I saw a few but I more saw Greninja and M-Kangaskahn, Garchomp, Talonflame, and M-Gengar
No duh they’re the conerstone of the word overused
Mega mawille and gardevoir much?
ok no those are goddesses
and extremely overpowered
no dude/dudette? (idk) if you’re looking for something to destroy for ruining the meta game its primals, I think your hate is misplaced
Please they’re only used by weakminded scrubs on the casuals online
i’m talking about the real stuff
how would you know when like 95% of online battles are all legends
because people are stupid
I enjoy Fairies my Fav types
Water
Grass
Fairy
Normal
Electric
I like most types equal but I do have to lower some lower and others higher
I just read the other day Ghost and Ice are the rarest types so I congratulate you for enjoying them knowing the rarity
My best guess for them is why you like Froslass right?
Say No to Fairy Types.
Bring back the reign of Fighting and Dark Types.
Make Pokemon great again
http://i.imgur.com/7CXnvpK.jpg
Well Alolan forms might not count yet some good Pokemon for those types
Dark- Opossum, Another Bat that is Dark type, Aardvark
Ice- Snowshoe Hare, Caribou, maybe a Yak, Snow Owl (likely not Happening)
Snowl and Frostrix ice/flying
Lol a dark type aardvark could be called aarvdark.
With a very High Chance of a Snowman we will get Ice, who knows, it could be a Dark type too
I’d be really dissapointed if we get 9+ normal types and only 2 ice types (the line presumably). Ice already gets the short end of the stick enough, and dark got nerfed last gen. Give them some love.
we atleast going to get one ice type because of the snow mountains in alola but i hope we get 3 families atleast
Am I the only one who wishes we had an article specifically to talk about all of these amazing new trainer customization options?
OMG, the clothing dyes! OMG, the hair styles! OMG, the hair colors! OMG, the eye colors! OMG, the options!
Ikr! I can’t wait to not look like a pale emo!
The reality is that I will probably never customise my trainer.
But, but, but..!

If this is what it’s actually like it will redeem every negative aspect of the game.

im so pump, watch me spend all my money on the expensive clothes
They don’t take pokedollars anymore though.
Festival coins only 😛
watch me steal all the coins (or spend hours just trying to get enough coins to buy fancy stuff)
Male hair isn’t long enough.
We shall see! It’s still possible so don’t lose hope yet.
If it’s not as long as the girl’s, I’m suing.
pikachu can choke, eevee is going to be OP in LC and i love the new pokemon. I going to get moon most likely and i liking the exclusives so far
Its The RUGBY MONKEY in the leak!!!
???
Except it’s in a fruit, not a leak ;P
So Far we have the Rugby Monkey Pokemon

Non-Pokemon related: For the Kingdom Hearts fans on here, Ventus is a Dandelion!
How far back was the keyblade war really? Cause right now it doesn’t seem that long ago.
Centuries ago according to the stories told in-game
How the heck is Ven there then? Are we at another confusing plot point again?
Tetsuya Nomura himself recently released artwork for the 1st anniversary of Unchained X. Guess who’s on it? Skuld, Ephemer and Ventus.
If you dont know who Skuld and Ephemer are: they are Keyblade wielders in UX with the sole goal to gather Lux (bit like the player) but they were also picked by Ava (one of the Foretellers) to join a small group of Keyblade wielders who would receive the ability to live past the Keyblade War and keep the legacy of the Keyblade alive. These individuals are called Dandelions.
Instruct is going to be such a fun move to use in double battles. You didnt die, take a double earthquake!
You’d need to skill swap a levitate in for it to not die too.
It has telepathy though. So the move won’t hit it
It might have telepathy.
50% chance 😛
telepathy is 100% confirmed ability. it may have a second one tho
True he might have meant 50% of missing
It does have a second one. That’s why I mean it’s 50/50 as to whether it has telepathy.
Its other ability is Inner Focus.
really? thats lame ability lol. telepathy all the way
*fake out*
Unless you’re using it in singles. If it has a Hidden Ability I expect that will be better, like Magic Guard or something.
Magic Guard is OP.
I hope so.
Really depends on it’s stats though. It only has Bug and Dark weaknesses, the most common being Dark moves, if it can’t be worn down by burn or poison it could be very difficult to take down. It looks pretty defensive to me.
But…you can just catch one with Telepathy..? So no, it’s not %50. If you have one with telepathy it’s not like it switches between the two between battles
It’s 50% if you haven’t caught one yet, or if you’re battling someone and don’t know which they’ve got.
Omg I just found out that Passimian and Oricorio (PomPom) are like a OTP
I ship it.
I feel like I’m the only person in the entire poekmon community that’s looking forward to z-moves and their uses. Heck I feel like the only person willing to actually try them.
You’re not, people honestly just tend to react badly to things like this
you mean change?
https://youtu.be/qvAenK95PfQ?t=2m38s
…dont understand the purpose of this, but I have questions… like who taught these people how to act and how do we fire them?
The word ‘change’ reminds me of this.
Also this is what acting used to be like back when the sets wobbled.
The purpose is kind of ironic, becuase this was one change 80% of the fans hated. In a double irony, I wasn’t one of them.
oh I see, I thought it was over but there was more, I get why you replied with that now
It should have only linked the last 10 seconds. Stupid embedding system.
I welcomed Megas when they were first announced and really enjoyed them
However I’ve not been hooked onto Z-moves as much I was on Megas.
I’d be more accepting if the names weren’t so damned awful.
PULVERIZING PANCAKE
Japan made it really serious, then the localisation team made it a meme-charged laughing stock.
I think they were going for ironically silly. Like you have such an epic attack but it has a silly name.
They failed big time.
i think bloom doom takes the cake as the worst one
True, I forgot about that.
Then again… “Catastropika”…
Not even a pun.
Well I dunno…Catastropika sounds it could be a Sharknado spin off.
I miss the days when pokemon names instilled fear in the hearts of men.
We have moves like Mega Punch and Thunder…
Now we have a parody of a parody ; n ;
I hope someone hasn’t beaten me to making this:
I don’t get it.
It’s like a thing kids say these days. A bit after my time but I thought it was semi humorous.
*grows long grey beard*
Wasshat sonny?
I think yurl hafta esplain it to meh.
I already feel like that, especially because I work with some high schoolers.
They actually look really awful… Don’t know what happened to them.
They look sassy so I thought it worked lol
Guess this confirms no new eeveelutions this gen.
Unfortunately..for a splitsecond in this trailer I thought Eevee might evolve into a new form when you use a Z-move with it (to promote the new feature, like with Sylveon & pokemonamie) and then was disappointed.
C’mon this was confirmed close to E3.
It was? Me not paying attention obviously.
They could’ve pulled a D/P and locked them away in the post game? Seems nonsensical, but it was possible.
Yeah I agree that was super dumb.
They better give us like 3 in Gen 8.
But actually it was the dex that confirmed it, so. . .
Well, I was trying to say like that could’ve been the regional dex and then we don’t see a new eeveelution till the national dex.
Vaporeon, Flareon, Jolteon, Leafeon, and Sylveon look pissed
Glaceon looks Evil
Umbreon and Espeon look retarded
no, they just look like they have better things to do lol
Umbreon and Espeon have no Fs left to give
I really love the design, concept and name of Oranguru. It has definitely become another favorite Psychic type for me (my favorite type). Do we think the monkeys will have pre-evolutions?
I believe they will and I can see them being really cute.
Me too. Passimian is huge after all, I really couldn’t see it as being standalone. I could see a childlike version of Oranguru and a smaller Passimian without the helmet on its head.
I think it will have a helmet that will be too big for it
Nope.
i really love oranguru.
I could see them going either way in terms of evolutions, but real talk for a second, have you noticed how few evolutions we have for s/m so far. Like as it stands right now we have a lot of single pokemon
me @ the z moves animations
https://67.media.tumblr.com/3e26a18919781f2ea1be0187445c8232/tumblr_njjhbjdMi51r9g27ko1_500.gif
Am I the only one who finds that gif creepy?
probably
Pretty much.
Me 5 seconds in
‘Ok, I get the damn point, just hurry up already’
the eevee one is so much. like all the “spectacle” just to raise his stats by 2 when it probably going to die next turn
my goal in the Alola? being a fashion icon. screw the trials, i want to be the new face of pokevuitton
I want to have a Fashion show where I upstage Elesa. Stupid Diantha will watch from the crowd because she’s not invited to walk with us.
diantha can leave with those cheap ugly angel wings.
And then I’ll hand that bitch some makeup wipes and tell her to stop penciling in her damn eyebrows so thick.
Dyes are the best thing that’s happened since bench sitting in gen 6.
but now we said it.gif
lmao pokevuitton. good one
http://i.imgur.com/QgqVZza.png
leafeon and flareon are in the back because they are the worst eeveelutions competetively
Glaceon and Jolteon are worse than those two.
leave glaceon alone. also i thought jolteon was high on the tiers
Jolteon is RU I’m sure. Glaceon is lower. Probably NU.
At least Flareon gets Guts as a hidden ability. And Leafeon gets Swords Dance and a respectable base 95 speed.
he is RU now? i havent play in while cause he was UU the last thing i remember and yeah i know glaceon is ru im just bias cause is my fav evolution. flareon only have only one good physical attack and leafeon only have leaf blade going on (but is probably better than glaceon tbh)
At least Leafeon looks cool though :3
Poor grass typing doesn’t help its high defense..too many weaknesses
i love leafeon design but yeah stat wise they didnt give the sinnoh eevelution justice
Ehh, stat wise its debatable. Its got a high attack and defense stat equal to golem, with some solid sped to boot. Its less that Monograss is bad, which it really isn’t, but rather it just has a lackluster movepool since physical grass is rather limited.
Also Grass is poor defensively so even all that defence doesn’t help it hang around for too long.
yeah. Five weaknesses for four resistances is a rough trade, but it can work for the right pokemon with the right stats. Here’s hoping that riven Rowlet seems to be a physical grass pokemon that they show a little love for them, or maybe five up one of its weaknesses. Like Poison maybe? Kind of seems odd that plants are weak to poison, given most poison’s seem to be made from plants.
1. Espeon
2. Umbreon
3. Flareon
4. Jolteon
5. Vaporeon
6. Glaceon
7. Leafeon
8. Sylveon
That’s final 😛
clearly this is your own personal opinion and not whats good competitively if that is the order
Final.
Pudding.

this is my favourite game, I have legitimately played it over 200 times (that may seem like an exaggeration but trust me its not)
According to How Long To Beat, Majora’s Mask is 20 hours long on average.
Multiplied by 200 that equals 4000 hours. 4000 hours = 166 days. That is a lot of Majora’s Mask.−
yes, yes it is, and thats not even including the times on the 3DS version
It’s definately one of my top 5 Zelda games.
So glad they made the 3DS remake.
Spookiest, trippiest Zelda game by far.
i’ll get my battleaxe
Vaporeon’s trying to be intimidating
I didn’t pick the ordering.
If I had, Espeon and Umbreon would be front and the others would be spread more evenly 😛
http://i.imgur.com/eMXNGp6.png
I’m surprised we don’t have a Captain Planet movie or tv reboot yet. Maybe he’s a bit too early 90’s.
Or maybe it’s just too much narm for anyone to think it’s cool 😛
But he could be played by Leonardo Dicaprio, it would be his next Oscar winner.
They made a he-man film once.
It was weird.
I heard they were making another one, could just have been a rumour though. I need to go search that now.
I actually think I’ve seen some of that movie, I don’t remember it much at all though.
Well, all I can say is don’t let anyone tell you that males are never dressed in scantily clad costumes unfit for battle:
http://images.static-bluray.com/reviews/6637_5.jpg
I remember the laser whip. They actually did the costume fairly well, considering He-man never wore much in the cartoon, which looking back is kind of weird for a kids cartoon.
Nobody questioned it 😛
Probably didn’t affect me *is sat in chair with no shirt on* nope, didn’t affect me at all.
Ouch the narm!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGegECwSiGY
He-man knew about mega evolution way back in the 80s:
https://youtu.be/7yeA7a0uS3A?t=34s
He-man stupid name though.
Better than washing the dishes.
They didn’t have the internet back then.
This is My team idea for Moon so my main team idea

I forbid you to use two normal types
Then how about this? I’m finally gonna do a rotation of Togedemaru and Mimikyu.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e3366149da949b296d7495b34e2154dfde6abcb31997bf5b6569c45ee1a8b5e8.png
Ahh but that’s two steel types and probably two fairies since popplio 3
Ehh Steel technically is the most durable type being resistant to all but Fighting, Fire, Ground, Water, Electric, and Ghost 3 weaknesses and 3 regular sadly only 3 Pokémon that are non-Mega, or Legendary are pure Klink line is it
Ugh, I hate Klink so much.
Klinklang is Ok to me
I’m using 3 fairy types. Fite me m8
And Joining Star is Me for supporting Fairies!!
Cutiefly, Mimikyu, Morelull?
Mimikyu Popplio3 and Alolan Ninetales
I’m really wanting to use Mimikyu
It’s so precious
My enthusiasm just lowered 10 notches.
But they are all perfect
Not as perfect as Morelull and Cutiefly *migrates to the forest*
My OCD cannot handle that. Thank lord arceus above that they’re getting rid of flying (seemingly) because when you used to need a flying type on your team it would kill me if I ever wanted to use a pokemon like gyarados and also a flyer. I just can’t have more than one type. I can’t.
I tend to not use more than one type but I’m just going off of appeal for these games
If I did that my team would be:
-Rowlet
-Vikavolt
-Lycanroc (midday)
-Oricorio (baile)
-Jangmo-o
-wimpod/cutiefly
But that’d be two flying types and two bugs. But I also won’t go with Jangmo-o since I predict it’s the pseudo and those aren’t really fun to use in game especially on a first playthrough.
That awkward moment when Bewear is taller than Ursaring, Rhydon, Garchomp, Tyranitar, Goodra and Tropius and the same height as Pangoro and Snorlax
What is the best part of your least favorite game and favorite thing of your least favorite game?
Pokémon XY has a great dex and really cool region inspiration
Pokémon Soul Silver has a terrible leveling curve
XY had great communications, as simple as that sounds. The PSS was the perfect solution.
Oh! Forgot the last part. For HGSS, I wish that there werent so many Johto pokemon post game locked.
HGSS + Action Replay ultimate combo
Pokémon XY had some unique and likeable Pokémon (Quilladin, Dedenne, Sylveon, Amaura, ect.)
Pokémon D/P had way too many Evos. locked till post-game
It began everything else.
Not enough locations.
ohhh let me guess
Kanto and Johto?
Kanto and Hoenn.
fair enough. hoenn needed more variety in location
Yeah, it was really stuck in the middle.
It had some interesting places, but not enough to do within the places themselves. I would have liked a few more small islands. Maybe a Sevii style extension instead of just mirages.
Least favorite: X&Y, but I love updated sprites
Favorite: HGSS, Also the grinding/weak trainers
X/Y has Aegislash and I like the 3 dee
Emerald doesn’t have all the new pokemon.
1st/2nd gen I love the worlds/music of both gens
DPPl – There is a good amount of grinding needed plus DP had its problems that Platinum improved on
(unpopular opinion alert!) I loved Y, but I disliked the lack of overall character development.
I didn’t care for Silver, but I loved the music.
