UK retailer TESCO has added the Nintendo NX to their website in anticipation of its upcoming launch and also added a price: £349.99 to be exact (~$450 USD). It has since been removed, but could be an indication of what the system will retail for at launch or it could just be a placeholder.
For comparison, the Wii U’s premium set launched for $100 less, at $350. Fans may want to start saving now if TESCO’s page was accurate or at least in the ballpark. We also know that Foxconn, a giant Chinese electronics manufacturer, is testing NX production already.
What do you think? Too pricey?

Breeding 6IV pokemon is a pain in the ass…Hyper training can’t get here soon enough.
you dont have a 6iv ditto?
That sounds like a pain to try and find.
nah somoene here should have one. i got one from here in my XY days
I have a 6iv japanese ditto I got from someone here long time ago, but idk how to clone 🙁
So with Hyper Training could I turn any Ditto into a 6IV one? Am I understanding that correctly?
Yep
That’s great. I saw some edgy douchebag say that they were pissed that all of their hardwork would go to waste now that “people unwilling to put in the work” could get into competitive battling. I was like, really? That’s an extremely selfish viewpoint.
Ian said WHAT?! xD
Lol, not him. xP At least I hope not
Shut the !@#$ up Nick
“What? You can send mail electronically now!? SO YOU’RE SAYING ALL OF MY HARD WORK WRITING WAS WASTED??? “
Exactly! There’s literally no downside to this. Even if it means more “casuals” or whatever stupid name you want to call non-competitive players are getting into it, that still is just a small price to pay for all of the damn time you’ll be saving (although it might also depend on how many bottlecaps we can get)
Still have to get it to Lv 100. Most kids will probably give up before then or not know/care about it. We also don’t know what the bottle cap distribution will be like.
everyone is tricking themselves thinking bottlecaps will be easy and plentiful
I imagine there will be a limited number available to the player, and the rest may be something you have to buy with Battle Points.
i hope like 200 for silver and 500 for gold
Very possible…although 500 seems a bit much. Maybe 100 for silver and 300 for gold. Still steep though.
bah it’s to instantly boost to 6IV
yous gotta pay
500 though…that’s pretty brutal. Perhaps worth it though.
If Bank retains an option to send BP to your game it will be more of an incentive for people to use that. I just hope there’d be good battle facilities if they are indeed for BP.
Battle Frontier please!
YES! GF HEAR OUR CRIES!
I’d say 100 for silver, 250 for gold. Seems fair to me.
50 for bronze? I think there was a bronze right?
I forgot about that one. Yeah, 50 seems fair.
I don’t think there’s a bronze. The silver one only does 1 IV so idk what the bronze would do.
Does it do raise one stat by 1 IV, or raise 1 stat to max?
It maxes it. I suppose there will be a bronze then.
Just seemed weird to me to skip Bronze, perhaps there isn’t one after all :/
Ability Capsules are currently 200 BP, I don’t think the Gold will be over 2x that unless it maxes all IV’s at once, and even then it sounds a bit much.
gold does max IVs
All of them at once? I’d stick to the Silver most of the time then, better to control IV’s I don’t want maxed.
I’m not, which is why I mention it, most people who breed for high IV’s will still benefit from doing so before hyper training comes into it.
Hopefully there’s a blissey base alternative in SM. >.<
If not then maybe some way of getting Rare Candies from the Global Link again.
I know that feeling -_-
I’m really close to that 6IV gible…I just hope it’s also male and has rough skin or I might cry
At least it has 50% chance, I recently bred 3 6IV 12.5% females for someone, I did not enjoy it orz
Jeez, that must’ve taken some time
A week for each, and they had to have their Hidden Abilities too. I did get 9 6IV foreign (to me) Male Pokémon in return so it was worthwhile.
Did you get anything good from them?
I will be using them for the Masuda Method, stuff like Sableye, Eevee, Exeggcute (for Alolan Exeggutor) etc. Also 4 Egg moves on everything so they are also useful for others in their respective egg groups.
I meant them as in the other person lol
Oh, I put that in the comment above, I got 9 6IV foreign (to me) Male Pokémon for all 3.
Oh, yeah, I remember reading that. My bad haha
Why 6? Mixed attacker? I’ve bred over a box of competitve pokemon, and only gotten one 6 IV ever.
Hm..idk. I just want my Garchomp to be the best it can be (and find its destiny). Perhaps it’s just a pride thing, but I’m naming it Ultron so this sucker needs to be flawless.
If it’s not an attacker it’ll be a huge waste of your time (not trying to be mean, just a warning. The 6th IV is completely random. That means for every 5 IV you get, you have a 1/32 chance of getting a 6 IV.
I already have one that’s 5IV, so I am just waiting right now. Maybe I’ll just use the next one without the sp. attack IV though.
Anyone know anything about the media interviews that Masuda and Ohmori are doing in London? First I heard of it was an hour ago when they both Tweeted that they arrived in the city. I imagine it’ll happen tomorrow sometime as it’s super late in England now, but I was unaware of such a thing even happening until now. I wonder if they’ll say anything interesting in it. Hopefully the journalists that go to it ask good questions and not dumb ones hahaha
i am in a voracious mood particularity for sushi
So if you could eat any Water type as sushi would would you go for
None cause Sushi assaults both my tastebuds and my nostrils.

i dont like sushi
Fight me!
BRING IT ROBO TURD!!!!
Dat hurtz muh feelinz
Gyarados Roll
I think I’d risk trying a Qwilfish, if not Pyukumuku looks quite tasty especially the red bits.?
Ooooo Qwilfish, chefs might have to be licensed to cut those
But they’re poisonous
just the scales
Still…plus pokemon are sentient creatures, I don’t think eating them would be right. Some, like many psychic types, are even smarter than your average human
………this is a problem how?
Wowww bet you’re indifferent to cannibalism too
As long as the meat is totally squeezed of all blood and cooked safely sure wynaut
So are puffer fish you just have to prepare them right. So I assume the same is true for Qwilfish.
Sushi is nasty.
*cracks knuckles*
Oh gee I sure am terrified of this man living hundreds of miles away from me
He is Rhyperior reincarnated in human form
https://youtu.be/bRGxbQcunnU?t=4m28s
Oh Gid you’re getting in a can of Weedle you don’t want to open
lets start off with a ton of Remoraid and Basculin rolls, some Krabby and Crabrawler claws, maybe take a Lotad and grind it into a herbal paste for dippin’, i could slurp down some Huntail Gorebyss unagi, some slabs of Sharpedo, little deep fried salty Wishiwashi, Raw Shellder, Squirtle soup, Froakie legs, maybe some simipour brains and to finish it all off a whole Octillery with a basin of soy sauce
You had me up until Simipour brains.. yuck
look if eating brains was wrong then i don’t want to be right
Not wrong, just not my cup of tea. BTW raw or cooked I might try it cooked.
idk about all that but I’d totally eat a torchic.
i’d go for a TorcFarPsyducken
It seems I’m not the only one here who dislikes sushi. xD
y’all have no taste
i could bankrupt a sushi joint in no time
i dont like it either
I don’t like it either I only really like chicken
i love sushi! my favs either have crab, shrimp, phidadelphia cream or avocado
I am going to a sushi joint for my birthday and the place is all I CAN EAT
and I will not leave until my stomach ruptured
All I can eat places are the best. I need a Greek and Mexican place who offer this
ok im a little jealous. we have a sushi place here but is quite expensive so i only go when is 2×1
Y’all are talking about eating Pokemon. This vegetarian is just cruising through, thinking if I should change my team for Delta Episode and League rematch. Lol
I’m sure Simisage could spare a few leaves.
You can eat the fruit off of Tropius!
I think
Fruit <3
I’m replaying HGSS. This time I’m using sentret due to high reccomendation.
What did you name it? I named mine Patches :3
I only name Nuzlocke and competitive bred Pokemon, so I didn’t name this one.
Am I the only one who doesnt breed anything for S/M? I’m the type of guy who wants to jump in fresh, with absolutely nothing at hand lol.
It wouldn’t even matter. Bank wont be available until February(?)
January I think.
First play throughs I never breed anything. I just go with the flow
Exactly. Just exploring and catch everything you see. Interact with everything and everyone and grind as much as I can
I do like to plan my team beforehand though..but just in terms of what I want to use. I will definitely be catching everything and, who knows, maybe my team could change along the way.
Eh I tried to do that, but except for the starters and Rockruff, I am finding it really hard to plan a team.
Yeah, it’s hard to do before we get a dexleak
I’m starting fresh, but I’ll transfer the old Pokemon in january.
I’m going clean until bank releases
fresh as a lettuce
Gross
Lettuce is yummy, lots of tomatoes and onions with it and a good dressing made with mayonaise. LOVE IT
You salad munching longhair
Salad is good though.
honey mustard salad mmmmm
Short hear but big bushy beard though
Wow. What happened when I was gone with the leaks? I’d like someone to take some screencaps of the leaks and compare it to the information revealed on October 4th. So far, after reading through Bulbapedia, it’s looking similar to the Art Leak and Anon Leak. Just utter false information with no creditable sources. Until I see one similar thing to the leak, I’ll believe it. It seems like it’s just someone who wants there to be two starter evolutions because they dislike the current ones.
Anyways (after that salt), where do you guys stand with the NX? Hybrid or Handheld or Console? Based on the CEO of the Pokemon Company, Ubisoft, Nintendo’s Job Listings, and patients… I’m predicting a handheld and console.
New article, let’s head over there.
I’m Team Moon all the way!
