Guys the WiFi plaza is back
I love Dartrix and Torracat. Not so sure about Brionne yet…
Ffs these games look huge btw. I don’t think we’ll get bored any time soon
i was about to say that….
it looks huge… even though e have only 4 islands….
every annouciment i think thats a new think…
and ash greninja and a confirmation of some leaks??? humn…
NOT LITten being the best one. FLOPpilo looks like a contestant for rupaul drag race. I know it was going to flop https://youtu.be/TONGXrdL_4M
Popplio is bae
There are some who like Popplio’s evo line, including myself, though.
In fact, because of my growing tolerance for Litten’s final, I like all of them. They really stand out 🙂
It’s quite feminine, and it has a good look to it. I quite like it as well.
If Popplio was feminine i wouldnt mind its evo, but they sold me a dream smh
Now that we pretty much know that the starter evos leak was real…wow, I can’t believe it actually leaked that early. It’z crazy. Have we ever had final starter forms concept art leak that early? Someone’s gotta be getting fired for that f*ck up.
I know right? Not even the Unova starters leaked that early. whoever was in charge of keeping that art under wraps majorly F’d up lol
i believe it was china who leaked them. sooo maybe when gen 8 comes around they’ll get a punishment just like us Europeans….
Next batch of Pokemon Sun and Moon news (I mean we got little to no news right guys XD) will hit on October 14th world wide!
Alright, for CoroCoro I’m definitely going with fossil Pokemon, maybe the Cutiefly evo from the last trailer, and possibly one or two more assorted Pokemon.
I noticed it says “Relive Mega Evolution” and showed the ones from the old games. I think it’s obvious that they won’t make any new ones for Sun and Moon. Thank god.
I’m still expecting a surprise Alola Form Mega Evolution… But then again, that’s probably because my second favorite pokemon is Marowak… Soooo bias xD
Huh, with the VGC ban, I retract my expectations <.<
I don’t there is any new Megas either. I’m just glad the concept is back!
I am sad if that is the case, where are my johto starter’s mega evolutions :(. All the starters should have them
I’m pretty convinced that they’ll have Alola Forms. I don’t know why, but their themes all seem to fit with the island habitat.
I doubt the starters will get alola forms. In any case, I feel it is unfair if the only starters who get mega’s are gen 1 and 3. The rest need more love and it is gen 2’s turn
…save them for DP remakes? (lel – I can dream)
Well if we get DP remakes we will get the gen 4 starters evolution but I am hoping that like X and Y celebrated the Kanto starters that Sun and Moon celebrates the Johto starters. Unless we get another gold and silver remake which is fine by me XD
So Join Avenue is back… and better than ever
More like the WiFi plaza
Switching from team Rowlett to team Litten (for the while)
I dont like that preppy boy-looking mid evo
Me arriving at the #popplioisoverparty https://magnetforfoolishness.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/gif15.gif?w=640 (rf)
Spill the t
My preferred starter actually changes depending on which stage is in question
Basic – Rowlet
1st Evo – Torracat
Final evo – Mermaid Popplio
same! I can’t wait to see official Sugimori art for mermaid Popplio. Gonna be as gorgeous as Milotic.
Same!
Basic: Litten
1st: Dartrix ( I love how it’s going through this teen stage…)
Final: Mermaid Popplio
Basic: Popplio
1st Evo: Torracat
Final evo: Popplio3
For me, you gotta swap Rowlet and Popplio ^.^’
so megas are banned from VGC 17
Is that speculation or fact?
The main points of the Pokémon WCS 2017 rules are
Double Battle format is limited to Pokémon that appear in the Alola Region Pokédex (excluding some Legendary and Mythical Pokémon).
Use of Mega Stones is not allowed.
Only Pokémon that can be obtained in Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon may be entered.
That’s cool. And smart.
read that on serebii….
humn… thats interesing… its the no new mega proof for me
They just know Mega Kanga is gonna be the meta again if they allowed it… plus they gotta highlight the new mechanic.
Arghhh why is November not here yet!!
Welp, as far as Ash-Greninja goes, I thought if it was introduced into the games, it would have another name. However, since the game made it where “Ash-Greninja” can be used by other trainers, now I’m wondering about the anime. An upcoming episode has “Goodbye Ash-Greninja” in the title, and I assumed it just meant the ability, but now I’m thinking Ash-Greninja’s going to leave. I know the game and the show are different, but that’s just where my mind went.
Hmm Wifi Plazas, Join Avenue like feature? A lot of love for Gen 4?
Also, how funny would it be if our Tucan Pokemon was a Gen 7 evolved form of Chatot? Or are there any other Gen 4 Pkm in need of a new evo treatment?
So pumped to play the demo!!!! I’m sad it’s two weeks away, but at least we got CoroCoro to hold us over!!! lol
Torracat?……I didn’t know wat Torra hint in english but in Japanese Torra mean tiger ….so it’s a tiger cat. http://www.cat-breeds-encyclopedia.com/images/xTiger-cat-full.jpg.pagespeed.ic.doY0cjeO-h.jpg
I wanna kiss its fuzzy belly
Oh wow I was just thinking about that too.
I want the final evo keep “Torra” in his name.
Well, to be accurate, it’s tora that means tiger in Japanese.
The torra in Torracat’s name most likely has a connection with something else.
wat is it?
It’s def not it but torrar means to roast in Portuguese lol
Not sure yet. I usually get etymology/name origin info from Bulbapedia, but they haven’t put anything up for its English or Japanese name as of now.
the very second i saw Dartrix

FAIRIES!!!
I might send my starter to that island as soon as I catch a rockruff
Poke Pelago reminds me so much of the Sinnoh Underground.. I LOVE IT
What about Festival Plaza, it’s similar to the Wi-Fi Plaza from Platinum and HGSS.

All Three Bird Starters are here
Huh, idk why… But I wish they were all in the same gen.
They would have a nice synergy. flying is strong against fighting, fighting is strong against steel and steel resists flying, isn´t it also super effective against flying? It wouldn´t be completely perfect but pretty cool nonetheless.
Replace steel with rock or ice, and it’ll work.
Empoleon could rock the Ice typing just fine, in fact.
Squad looking right ??
Hmm they have banned Mega Evolution for VGC 2017… that will make things interesting!
My opionion:
Dartrix: sooo cool. Really original and funny.
Torracat: well that’s just a bigger Litten. Originality: 0. Not a fan.
Brionne: cute and funny. Love the mermaid it will become.
I dont understand how it being bigger means it not original lol
Cause there’s nothing new. I mean it’s the most unuseful first evolution ever. I mean at least Charmeleon changes colour. I cannot even tell which one is the evolution among them looking from far
It’s quite different actually..
The Bell, the “facial hair”.. how the front legs seem bigger (+claws) than the back legs. It’s general face seems quite different, specially the eyes and mouth.It has an aggressive and cool look to it. I’m glad it looks like that.
