I love how they started designing for a 3D world.. I can Easily see all of these Starters in Pokken Tournament. . I’m still confused how Popplio3 fights tho
It probably fights best in water. Doesn’t look like it could move much on land. It’ll probably be pretty slow.
With loooooooooooooooooove
Probably bubbles and its voice though, along with hydrokinesis and possibly Fairy powers
It favors attack over sp. attack.
Really? Where did it say that? Because that’s a hella odd design choice
GameXplain remembered from what they played
But the E3 footage suggests otherwise
Question Time
Where would you live if you lived in the Pokémon Universe?
I’d want to live in Castelia City, just because I love big cities as I’ve lived all my life in one.
Castelia City is cool 🙂 Fortree for me! it feels like home and one of my favorite places to be
Lavender town …I would like Ecruteak city more ……I wish I can visit distortion world too.
Oooh that’s a hard one! I think maybe Canalave City or Lilycove City.
Aspertia City is also pretty cool
Probably either Undella town or viridian city
Probably Laverre but moving from Alola, as soon as my Fairy team was ready Valerie would be facing a coûp for the Laverre Gym :p
In all seriousness though, it has a nice atmosphere and looks beautiful
Top choice would be Rustboro because it’s got some nice grassy areas nearby and Devon Corp would be a good place to work/visit.
Maybe Verdanturf because it’s nice and calm.
I’d consider Floaroma if it weren’t for the ugly wind turbines nearby.
Not sure about other places, I’m sure there will be places in Alola I’d like, but greeting people with ‘alola’ would get old really fast.
Wind turbines aren’t ugly >:I
You’re right, they’re hideous blotches on the landscape.
All those beautiful unspoilt fields ruined by those giant white eyesores.
Well, they’re sustainable so I’d rather have that than strip mining or fracking :^) Clean energy obvi isn’t going to be perfect but if the biggest complain is “it’s ugly” then you’re doing something right.
I’d rather have hydroelectric, nicely hidden inside a dam and it can be adapted to solve power surge issues. Plus tidal can be hidden neatly and they can filter out almost all of the plankton and stuff that might have otherwise been adversely affected.
And there’s recently been some leaps forward in nuclear research that are begining to look like nuclear could become much cleaner. I can’t remember the details but it involved diamonds.
Probably either Castelia City or Ecruteak. Hehe, kinda funny actually. A city full of development and a city of tradition
Ecruteak City 100%. I will always be a Johto guy and its just such a gorgeous place
Was the reference to the BBC programme Question Time intentional? *vaguely thinks you might be from Britain*
Hearthome
Totem pokemon looks very competitive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rADvOOpsSAM
well it seems both Pikipek and Crabrawler learn Rock Smash
also crabrawler can be found very very early
How are you sure it can be found early?
well it’s level 10
Oh right, didn’t watch the video all the way. Fair enough.
When I watch Crabrawler first trailer while he sweeping Cresselia by knock-off …I thought for sure this pkmn will stand alone ….but now it’s not have an evolution it’s an earlier too.
I am really confused. Does this make a new 3ds obsolete. I still have my original pearl pink 3DS and was planning on buying a new one when these games come out does this mean I shouldn’t buy a new one and wait for this. #BlondeMoments.
I don’t think it makes the 3DS obsolete, but it’ll be interesting to see what they’re going to do with it..Honestly if they just dropped support for the 3DS that would really suck for kids who can’t afford an expensive console just for the handheld.
Well see I have a very limited array of games I have any interest in playing. This seems to just continue my trend this past year of buying every system currently on the market for 1-3 games per system. Excluding the PS4 which I bought to play with my fiance. However I feel like this is kind of sucky I guess for lack of a better word coming to mind at the moment. Also its just not coloured to my taste either. xC I guess four hundred isn’t as bad as twenty two hundred for a computer for just the sims 3. </3
I think it depends on what you depend to do with it.
I haven’t bought a new 3DS game in months but I still use my 3DS nearly every day to look stuff up on the internet and I also play some of the free-to-play pay-to-win-quicker games regularly.
Hmm… Discuss?

Where is Wicke?
She’s busy babysitting Timmy Turner.
This is going to be the like maze runner and Wicke really stands for wicked isn’t it?
Oh, no. It’s that Wicke is pronounced similarly to Vicky, which is Timmy Turner’s babysitter’s name.
who is voiced by Grey DeLisle now known as Grey Griffin
Who the hell name’s their child Grey, though?
It’s not her real name.
i think its Erin
Born as Erin Grey Van Oosbree
It’s Grey Griffin as of her third marriage.
does it matter?
You didn’t put the spoiler tag ;-;
…Oh! Edited. Sowee.
Seen it, discounted it.
I don’t think the ones for the main character, scientist man, hau, or gladion work at all. For the scientist, it actually appears to be feminine because it’s wearing a dress. Not all that close to a labcoat
Actually people highly spectate that gladion is Absorption’s counterpart with his values of power reflecting UB-02A’s nature
but the point of the UB’s is that they take on your appearance. All the others do. I’m guessing there’s some buff character that hasn’t been revealed.
since when did they start body snatching i’m telling you its Gladion = Absorption
the color scheme
the power emphasis
also the spikes on his coat perfectly match the spikes on UB-02A’s shoulders
well if you look at the other ones that are obviously inspired by them. But I’m with Pharap, the black one is closer to Gladion
It doesn’t make sense that the male playable character has a corresponding UB and not the female one.
If Hala has one, why don’t any of the other Kahunas?
This mostly matches up, with the exception of a few, the main character won’t be an ultra beast because that would make you one too which would make the whole mystery behind it redundant. You would already know. I also don’t think the skinny green goggled guy or Hau match up all that well. Guzma though is a dead ringer
I wish Wicke had an Ultra Beast. It would probably be an adorable puppy though because she is too pure and perfect
When she turns out to be the one actually spearheading the illegal research and experimentation of humans and Pokemon alike. omg it makes sense Wicke is Xehanort.
No way she is going to be the innocent one who got caught up in shady AF business just wanting to help pokemon
It’s always the cute and innocent looking ones.
Sorry but this face
http://static.zerochan.net/Wicke.full.2037330.jpg
can’t hurt anything
Nope, googling female Pokemon characters is a no-no, I can never unsee what I just saw.
I did the same thing in a vain attempt to find artwork of her being evil, but all I got was rule 34.
It was disturbing.
I was expecting it and it was still disconcerting.
When Lopunny is your favorite Pokemon and it ends up being a reference to Playboy.
I think the reference to playboy is actually kind of funny
I just always thought it was chic with the fur around its arms being like fur coat cuffs.
Rule 34 NO EXCEPTIONS
I don’t necessarily understand but okay. : D
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_34_(Internet_meme)
because since the dawn of man, whatever the sun castith it’s divine gaze, man has had one dream
to get his rocks off
It doesn’t make sense. Why would one Kahuna be based of one of the Ultra Beasts and not the other ones? And, this assumes your playing the male character. What if you play the female antagonist? It doesn’t quiet add up…
I agree on UB1-2-4-6-7-8. I’m not 100% sure about hau but defenitly the male character is not a UB. Remember that we have not seen all the characters from this gen, so maybe it’s a new one.
Not that I believe in this, but clearly Gladion is better suited to the carbon thing currently assigned to the player.
If this theory is correct I think it’s possible we might find out who the muscular character matching UB02A is on the 23rd.
I’m not convinced anyone out of Skull or Aether has a counterpart, therefore let me offer up alternative solutions https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7ebf5756a5ffc95e6ccaa06d0bc4ce667306d4ffa357f87c18b2ca458cca986a.png

Semi-regular reminder I made a poll to determine people’s feelings about the starter evos:
http://pokejungle.net/forums/index.php?/topic/162-what-are-your-feelings-about-the-starters-leaked-final-forms-potential-spoilers/
Well, Archer is the most liked but with opposing feelings cause a few hate it, Mermaid is pretty much loved or neutral but not hated, Wrestler is hated with a few who likes or are neutral to it. Is this a good resume?
(I almost regret not choosing ‘hate’ for the mermaid.)
The tiger is currently most hated and the archer is most loved.
But it still needs more votes, it’s not quite representative yet.
Pharap, which part of Britain are you from? I live here too
I’m 30% sure I’ve said this once before to you 😛
England.
You only said Britain ? Which part of ngland ( north, south, east, west)? I’m in Surrey which is near London.
I’ve said lots of things to lots of people 😛
South.
I Don’t want to get too specific though.
(I think I’ve made it clear I’m not a Londoner though, much more rural.)
Awesome.
Et toi?

That’s actually where I got the pic from. lol
I always know.
Even that time @starstorm295:disqus posted the Sonichu thing, I just couldn’t scroll far enough to find it.
This 100% this.
Seriously though, drinking and conversations? Eww
Breath of the Wild? GOLDEN!
Lol this is super funny!! I like spit my drink out. but why not both? I don’t get to see my friends often so I would take drinking and conversations over a game I could play later anyways. Not when I was younger though lol (tells self that he will go out and be social once BOTW comes out, but tbh probably won’t)
I think its funny because I don’t drink, never have, but why talk or play games when you can actually go out. x3
Wrong way round, why talk and go out when you can play games 😛
Am I the only one here with a relatively active social life? :p
Quite possibly. What on earth do you find to do out there?
Well last Tuesday me and some more distant friends were trying to plan a party but it fell apart
But with my regular friends we usually chill out, watch a movie, discuss life and get in a pizza or a Chinese.
I discuss life through the computer.
And other people always talk over films so I avoid them unless it’s the cinema, but nobody ever invites me to the cinema.
Food is ok, but then people have to fight for the last slice.
“party” *look of horror*
https://media3.giphy.com/media/l2JHS7po8pGz94TgQ/200_s.gif
My social life involves my fiance, his friends and family, and my family. Play nice or don’t play at all right. xP
no, trust me not all of us are shut ins lol

Heaven won’t have me. Cuz I’m all about me.
Karen looks like she got a bit… too into mario games in that trailer
Inb4 there’s a Fleshlight™ in her pocket.
… why would a woman need one of those…
To provide a service without sullying her purity?
Lesbians ¯_(ツ)_/¯
…..do you know what a fleshlight is? It would serve no purpose for a lesbian… but ok, not that this is an appropriate topic
Nope, no idea.
*looks it up*
Eh, I still think they could get a kick out of it.
Dammit Karen, always turning the party into a 3rd grader’s birthday party.
Karen: “Wanna Just Dance?”
Lol that game? heck yeah, I’m in.
If you couldn’t tell I’m being sarcastic.
She’ll be the life of the party though… 🙂
This is just not our kind of party, heh heh heh.

I can’t see main series Pokemon games on this device to be honest
All 7th generation will remain on 3DS for sure. Starting from 8th they will go on switch. We have three more years to get used to it, don’t worry
I love it, I really do. I’ve wanted main series Pokemon games on a big screen since I started playing. But it seems to good to be true
Does anyone understand what this means? Cause I don’t. ._.
https://twitter.com/RealShigeruM/status/789217134077288448
It can be used as a paper weight?
As per the Top Right and bottom Left I know that you can use both yourself one in each hand, and someone else could use one while you use the other.
When you lose one thirty minutes after opening it or a kid mistakes it for candy. I do not think that is a good design choice.
I agree completely.
I hope though something like that doesn’t happen. However if it were it could cause problems for this console sale wise.
People throwing remotes at their TVs didn’t hurt the Wii’s sales.
I broke my stained glass french doors the first time I used my ps3’s version of a wii mote.
Yikes, too much activity.
I think I dropped my Wii remote once and never again.
I decided Yoga and actual Tennis was better.
*cringes*
My fiance actually is the one who pushed me into yoga. I don’t really know why because he doesn’t do it with me.
Maybe he was trying to tell you something? I dunno. Yoga is weird.
Don’t do yoga, video games are more fun. Replay Majora’s mask instead.
I’ve never played a Zelda game
I think my heart stopped for a moment there. O _ O
Rectify this at first opportunity.
Soooo much you’re missing out on.
I haven’t played lots of games.
I’d recommend steam, but A) it eats your wallet, and B) you’d need a reasonably good computer for it.
Seriously though, Zelda is a right of passage, it’s like having never seen a Star Wars, James Bond or Disney film.
I spent 2200 dollars on a gaming computer with best on the market parts for sims 3
Yikes, that’s more than I spent on mine back along. What sort of ‘best’ are we talking?
Prepare to have your wallet consumed:
http://store.steampowered.com/
The newest everything but since I have no clue about computers besides pushing the big button turns it on. I want to update the psu its not strong enough. But i legitimately have electrocuted myself before on lamp chords and toms hardware laughed at me when i asked a question. xC
I- That’s something I would do. Seriously though, I love the Sims. I hope you enjoyed playing it on that computer 😀
Obvious solution to one of those is remove all children from the building 😀
(By any means necessary *hides weapon* :D)

Bill Bailey is awesome I loved him in black books
Also the meme used the same side controller for the Top Right and Bottom Left of image so it could be a reason why it’s a bit confusing.
It’s a meme lol http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/cadbortion-loss-edits
Wow that meme has just gone down such a weird road if this is what is has become .-.
I agree. Honestly, I never found it funny at all.
Aye.

This meme triggers me
Why? It’s just a meme.
Guys I’ve came up with a new theme for my Sun and Moon Teams and I’m really excited about it! Greek Dieties! (And luckily it literally allows me to keep the same six I posted earlier for Moon who’re the ones I’m really excited for)
Spoilers for datamine

Popplio3-Aphrodite
Tsareena-Persephone
Salandit2-Eris
Bewear-Hera
Oricorio-Athena
Ninetales-Artemis

Litten3-Ares
Rowlet3-Apollo
Vikavolt-Zeus
Wishiwashi-Poseidon
Palossand-Hades
Ribombee-Eros
Ooh that’s cool! Small nitpick, I’ve heard that Artemis is more associated with the bow than Apollo.
She is, he is more associated with healing, medicine, foresight, and music. xP
Rowlet3 fits better in the God side IMO because I couldn’t really find another Apollo Pokémon whereas I felt Ninetales was a good pick due to Artemis being the goddess of the hunt (foxes are commonly hunted animals) as well as her association with the moon (the moon has connections to ice in various media and Fairy has that Moonblast/light connection) :p
Oh, I didn’t even notice the male/female God split.
Yeah, part of me wanted to continue that feminine masculine split because it contributed to itself so well.
I’m also going to have a starterless third run to cover the four Olympians I missed (plus Hestia) and to have a ‘mixed gender’ run.
Fun fact Hestia once was an Olympian but gave up her spot to Dionyssus.
Yeah, that’s why I really want to include her, as well as the fact she and Hades are siblings to Zeus, Demeter, Hera, and Poseidon who I already had covered 😀
Fun fact: The centerpieces of each team are meant to be Popplio3 and Litten3 due to the gods they’re named after fitting so well with the fem/masc theme
Ooh the implications of having both Aphrodite’s husband Hephaestus and her adulterous lover Ares on the same team. #Salacious.~
Greek Dieties were like he original Keeping up with the kardashians :p
Plus Deliverance all rolled into one.
And Game of Thrones tossed in there too :p
I’ve never seen that.
Either, but I do know it has a lot of:
-Drama
-Violence
-War
-Adultery
-Sex
-Incest
All the basics of Greek Mythology XD

March is already the month my wallet dies again
I’ve been saving up for a while, hopefully my brother doesn’t try to mooch off me like with the Wii U.
He payed 5 dollars of the Wii U and now claims it was 50/50.
Minor rant: While I payed a large majority of the Wii U other than what he chipped in, my dad payed for 200 dollars of his PS4 and isn’t even making him pay it back. -_-
i dont go half with anybody because they always make a excuse last minute
GUYS HALP!!
@fleurnyaa:disqus has never played a Zelda game.
I can feel the world crumbling!
That’s not a big deal.
its not a big deal to me.
O _ O You’re dead to me.
That’s a shame.
No shame in playing no game.
It’s a classic series, with one of the greatest soundtracks of all time. Seems like a shame to me.
I tried to play one of them on DS (emulator) but I didn’t like it at all.
Which one?
It called Legend of Zelda – Spirit Tracks.
Oh god no that one sucks. The DS games (Ok my opinion, some like them) are not very good. You should try Wind Waker or Ocarina of Time
Sucks is a bit harsh, but it’s definately not something to rope a beginner in.
Ooops yeah you’re right. Sorry! I don’t like them though, I don’t think they are good starting games just due to the (imo) frustrating controls. That’s all I mean
Yeah. They weren’t as good as they could have been, but Spirit Tracks had a really good soundtrack if nothing else. They just made a mistake with the train gimmick. Zelda is better when it focuses on story instead of gimmicks.
Try a console one
That’s basically like playing a pokemon spinoff game and thinking it’s comparable to the main series.
Spirit Tracks was indeed a bit of a spinoff.
Try to get Ocarina Of Time 3D for 3DS, easily one of the best games of the series.
If you’ve got a Wii or Gamecube, try to go for Wind Waker or Twilight Princess.
*Easily one of the best games of all time
You have to play Ocarina of Time.
They should try Wind Waker. A bit easier and totally stunning. Link Between Worlds is a good mobile alternative
breathe of the wild is a good mobile alternative starting in march 😉
Or if you prefer a more at home experience, try Breath of the Wild
if u need a good game to sit on the throne with, try breathe of the wild
If you need to escape the mafia and want a bit of zelda, you should check out Breath of the Wild!
Nintendo Switch coming to a store near you!
If you like the good old Zelda magic revamped with a bit of pseudo-scifi and a lot of free-roaming exploring.
Buresu obu za waiarudo!
‘mobile’ makes me think of phones ; n ;
‘handheld’ is better 😀
I am bad at games. My fiance carried me through tom clancies the division. As is such with most games I got stuck in the tutorial room of one of my brother’s games for an hour and couldn’t find the door out so he took the controller from me and said never again.
Pokémon News
Oh, no & oh, yes!
https://twitter.com/PokeLoot/status/789231840884297728
why is there park ball? isn’t that pal park only
It’s probably for Pokémon who were already caught with it and their offspring
park balls don’t carry over
Really? Huh.
Well, then… Wonder what they’ll be doing in Sun & Moon.
New Pal Park-like feature?
why we already have bank
probably, not unless they make them an actual ball, which tbh id love a yellow ball
it works like a master ball tho. its just yellow
they could make it a regular ball though, I like to customize my pokemon in certain poke balls so a yellow one would be awesome
we had seals in gen 4 lol
no ~~~ I didn’t like seals, they were glitchy and didn’t let you box your pokemon, just certain balls for certain pokemon, premier, love and heal balls being my most used for my fairy teams
O o O
hey if they fixed them then cool
they can fix that
Yes! YES! BRING BACK SEAL
CAPSULES!!
I bet the park balls will be for the pokemon from the pokepelago that choose to join you.
No idea. Maybe in case you bring a Pokémon over from another game that’s captured in one.
If the apricorns weren’t back I’d be yawning
But the apricorns are there so hopefully we have those Poké Balls back 😮
Wait, are the Apricorns actually back??
Cause, please lord! I love Pokéball diversity and variety!
IF THIS ISNT REAL I WILL END A HOE!!!!
Although it is absolutely beautiful soaring through the Hoenn skies, there is no reason to keep it when Fly is replaced by PokeRide. Just slower. I will miss it though
Omgggggg my love balllllll
ALOLAN KURT
Or a relative? Who cares? APRICORN BALLS!
Bring back ALL THE BEST FEATURES

If nobody else reacts, I give up on the world.
http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/tardis/images/f/f4/Seal-of-Rassilon.jpg
its a doctor who reference to the name, but like, meh
Rassilon was Lord High President of the Time Lords. It’s really fitting.
I always here of it, yet I’ve never watched Dr. Who.
Is it really all that great? Cause I might need a new show to watch once I’ve caught up to the latest 7 episodes of Once Upon a Time.
imo torchwood was better but still sub-par but to each their own
Torchwood was meh. It got better after they stopped being hooked on sex. Nobody will ever let them live down the ‘sex gas’ episode.
It used to be, recent years have been a bit sketchier, we’re hoping things will pick up after Moffat (head writer) leaves.
Everything with David Tennant as the 10th Doctor is worth a watch. 11 was good for the first year and gradually got worse. 12 could have been good but Moffat dragged the world into darkness and let them get away with silly things like the moon being a dragon egg.
Once Upon a Time doesn’t air in Britain as far as I’m aware 😛
I might just give it a chance.
You can watch Once Upon a Time online here: http://www.couch-tuner.ag/watch-once-upon-a-time-online-str/
If you ever find that a video has been deleted, try http://couchtuner.fr/
Heaven Sent and Hell Bent are the best episodes of the 12th(13th) Doctor so far, and are great episodes overall.
Once Upon a Time has aired on channel 5, not sure if that’s still the case as I’ve not watched it much at all.
diamond and pearl had amity park? that seemed to be a test for Heartgold and soulsilver why not just make it the whole sinnoh region in the remake?
Quit whining. They removed benches. You have no right to complain
I want them, too. Whine with me.
*pouts and takes a seat on a bench*
BUT YOU CAN’T DO THAT IN SUN AND MOON
IM SITTING ANYWAYS!!!!!!
HOMEBREW HACKING TIME!
I T A L L C O M E S T O G E T H E R
Johto poke balls is probably what the johto tent
Then what are the actual apricorns for?
maybe you can earn them and u can make the poke balls through the tent
Holy Mew! What if the Festival Plaza allows us to actually make our own Apricorn balls? I’d be sooo happy with that.
Like we could combine two apricorns to make new balls
Yes! Crafting would be nice.
I’m pretty sure the item data is always there. Doesn’t mean it’ll be used.
ORAS didnt have them as item data only textures
Interesting. I mean I hope they are back, but we’ll see. The fact the Park Ball and Sport Ball is there tho makes me question it.
my blaziken in oras isnt in a park ball and I put in gen 4 through the Pal Park
That’s what I’m saying, it doesn’t carry over, but it’s still in the data. Park Ball was just a catching minigame for transfer from Gen 3.
DIAMOND AND PEARL REMAKE CONFIRMED?
Am I the only person that’s actually kinda really dissapointed that sitting hasn’t returned (at least according to the demo)? It honestly kinda kills the game’s vibe of extreme immersion compared to past gens, because for all the fancy graphics and character proportions, it’s always gonna feel like a step backwards to just bump into chairs, beds and benches…
No, everyone goes nuts for sitting lol.
It was an alright feature I used once for the kicks but honestly IMO it was pointless, I don’t mind it being gone if it means better graphics (somehow).
Yeah it’s definitely not that important, but it’s just another niggle that game freak clearly could have solved if they put a little more productive effort into their games :/ . It’s just annoying when innocuous features that make the game feel more lifelike get removed, especially when they’re as basic as sitting…
I would’ve much rather them focus on good features, and it seems promising and they’ve said in an interview they wanted to add good post game features for longevity! (Frontier pls
Yeah, I’d love for that to be true, but I’m going to stay pessimistic as to us getting a battle frontier. We already got screwed over pokémon wise, so I’m not going to expect miracles, just the usual decent stuff
No, sitting is an odd exclusion, but I’m more bummed over no soaring. It was just so good.
Charizard Pokéride might offer it too though, in some form.
That’s what I thought, but based on the interview I doubt it 🙁
Sitting, watching my character also sit, staring back at me…
Sitting was an amazing realistic feature and GameFreak is always removing the best features ;~;
The most pointless features are the ones we miss the most. . .
Nope I miss BF a ton more
I miss Kalos 🙁
I miss the most bland region in all of Pokemon too. . .
Kanto?
Fair enough lol
Okay okay, apricorns balls are good and all but HAVE YOU SEEN THIS: https://mobile.twitter.com/PokeLoot/status/789232856895746048
Mega Stickpin here I come!
Wat is that?
Nevermind, it was a false alarm
My fairy godmother finally answered my prayers its a tiara <3
Those are all item data from Gen 6. They always seem to carry it over to my knowledge.
Pendant = Wally
Glasses = Maxie
Anchor = Archie
Stickpin = Steven
Tiara = Lisia
Anklet = Zinnia
Maybe they’re all in the game..?
Or just in the data. Or for returning characters. Who knows. But as customizable options? I highly doubt it. That’ll just be our Z-Ring.
Well at least I still have an actual tiara, oh well.
Maybe they’re back because of….the PWT
Dream crusher </3
I apologize.
I should’ve known better. >.<
But I didn't know about Lisia, did you get to battle her ever?
Nope! But she does Mega Evolve in contests if she gets lucky.
Oh, blah.
“Mystery Zone, Faraway Place, Hau’oli City, Shopping District, Marina, Mahalo Trail, Ten Carat Hill”
Yus!
Th…that’s not what I meant.
But seriously why is this exciting? Or is it just sarcasm?
It means we know what the other places are. It’s exciting for me.
What do you mean what they are? It just says “mystery zone” and “faraway place”. Doesn’t exactly narrow it down. Unless you mean we get to travel more places in the demo?
They’re vague enough to be intriguing.
my mega holster is one of three items
Mega Hat: the keystone is in the band of a cowboy hat with various pokemon teeth
Mega Claw: my iconic Ursaring Claw necklace has my keystone wedged in
Mega Belt: My big phat Marowak skull Belt Buckle has the Keystone in its right eye
That seems a little morbid.
….you know who you’re talking to right?
You’re the fairy hater.
damn straight
Its really weird I like fairies aesthetically and you hate them and ice is my actual favorite type tied with grass and both are super effective on ground, so ironic.
Don’t forget, Earth is my main Element but I am proficient in the raging inferno that is the Flame
If I had a superpower mine would be flower. Or based on my personality April’s from darker than black. or a toxic death kiss. Marluxia is dope.
Wat’s going on?
More small tidbits:
https://mobile.twitter.com/PokeLoot/status/789234539029815296
Town map images for each island. Nothing too huge, but now we know where it seems we can go on the islands. Plus it’s cool to look at.
Didn’t work. Hold on
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/46ece2f393cd2cd1138fbd58cf87bc22f05b2f0663fe41cedaf3009ac0837687.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/2047522126661ceebc648679c4db29fdfbb8673bf8c144f625d5a4552b776718.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6bd926d6618609e64fb3811d4146f6a5e56ddb42ca56442c132ab5615fe424ab.jpg
Am i the only one who thinks based on the maps the towns are small especially the one with the skyscrapers along the beach which are only on one side or how close together the cities look to one another.
Likely bigger in game
The funniest part is I thought people still lived in grass huts on beaches in Hawaii until two years ago x3
…. really?
I saw hawaii five o and realized there were skyscrapers.
well then
People always think I am stupid because I am oblivious. As adore said and I posted earlier heaven wouldn’t have me because I am all about me.
Ignorance is bliss ¯_(ツ)_/¯
*glues front door shut*
I don’t think you’re stupid. but you’re quoting a drag queen??? I never pinned you for someone that likes that, learn something new everyday
I don’t necessarily like drag queens but I do know who she is because the song I love u was the description of my last relationship before my current fiance.
The truth is much sadder.
Fun fact: only 10% of Hawaii’s population is native 😀
It has the highest concentration of asian americans of all states, districts, countries, and territories outside of Asia itself.
Yup.
Life is also very expensive there, a lot of the beaches are overrun with tourism and sustaining a job is extra hard.
Their jobs also pay more though.
Depends where in the world you live to compare it to 😛
Akala goes back a ton further than I thought lol
If you look closely, you can see that Kalos isn’t there
Really? Point it out to me, the images are kinda blurry.
To be fair neither are the post game islands/the small island under Poni/the aether paradise.
Why do I keep calling it that? xD I mean aether PARADISE
So you’re telling me there is hope? And I think the small island is Pokepelago.
Not the one under Poni, we’ve seen it in trailers. Also I don’t think we can go to pokepelago, that’d be super odd.
Trainer: “Oh, hey there Pokemon I caught once and never used. We should hang out sometime!”
*slowly backs away*
Oops sorry I thought you meant the tiny island on the artistic map with the single tree xD
Aether Heathen? Muahaha
Also I wonder why Poni is so blurry. I know it means nothing but still
Soo tiny.
Spoiler (same Ithsme subject) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHYmaMtxuOI
I didn’t know you can get ur starter there!!!!!!! IM SPOILED AND CANCELLING MY PRE ORDER
Sorry guys, I just have to.
——-
For those who didn’t see earlier, GameXplain said they found multiple new Pokemon in the first two hours of the game, and the only new Pokemon other than evolutions is late MeleMele. Furthering my point that the dex is incomplete.
—-
Woo, gotta take a breather (a typer? Lol)
….they could’ve been alolan geodude and diglett
Geodude isn’t in the list of the first island
says who
Scroll up a bit
and who says i’ll believe him
Nobody, I’m just going off of what we’re told.
When you realize geodude is based on a geode so on the inside he is all crystal and sparkly~
its actually based more on a pet rock
xP Crystal
Well, there’s that thing in Lillie’s bag… Not gonna say anymore than that.
“meeeleee meeeleee” lol that guy fails
It bothers me for some reason that it is Meleme(le) and not MeleMele. I had to include the parentheses because my phone won’t even let me type the real spelling!
PC Master Race *sunglasses*
The best part is u can catch Crabrawler earlier in this game.
Wonder what else is exclusive.
https://twitter.com/PokeLoot/status/787574860725780480
Mandi/Bravi
Lilli/Whims
The best one ever was the face of Tresemme this year.
Solgaleo and Lunala
that anemone and the spidey
I hope it’s not cuz I wanna build my mono fire type post game.
How are they about to make one of the only fire pokemon an exclusive? This might point to there being more pokemon than were found.
Baile Oricorio?
Oricorio, Litten, and Salandit would be the only new fire options in Moon or whatever version its not an exclusive in
Learn ye how to pronounce the island names:

Akala is where I will be.
Any reason your comments keep randomly deleting? I keep missing chances to reply 😛
Its the OCD, I feel impulses to delete them.
Erm, ok… Why?
I honestly do not know. I am the same way on facebook.
so you deleted that whole superpower thing
Its not that bad when I was in grade school I would take my tests up to the teachers desk and never take my hands of it and then turn around pick it back up and it went on well into highschool. Also I seem to offend people quite easily especially you so out of self doubt I tend to delete things where I think I could be viewed negatively.
Sound more like mild paranoia than the compulsions that come with OCD, but I could be wrong.
Well I guess to be fair it is paranoia as a few months ago I was on a similiar site but for anime and people hacked me and got um personal things and then decided it was best made public so.
Well, that sucks (to put it lightly).
Strong passwords are a must these days.
And this is also why I’ll never go more specific than Southern England and why when I finally get a new phone I’ll be doing my best to disable the GPS.
I don’t think you’d be at much risk of that on Disqus. Most people here probably wouldn’t even know how to hack your account beyond trying random passwords. And you can always recover your account via email.
The only thing I can be positive about is they still talk about me and look at my pictures, I know I am a hot topic.~ <3 That came out wrong sorry
The only way to guard pictures is to never post them. I’ve only ever put one photo of myself online and thankfully it’s been lost to the ages.
At least you’re admired I suppose. If something of me ended up online it would probably end up in a meme or just a truckload of negative comments. 😛
I’m just glad it was the one before the breast augmentation.
I tried to not jump to the conclusion that is was ‘those’ types of pictures but had a feeling it would be. That’s quite a problem these days, one of the reasons I try to stay away from social media and keep my internet persona separate from my real life where possible.
It wasnt that bad, I dont do pictures the way most girls do. I try to do it classy and only mildly suggestive so you couldnt see anything you wouldnt if you have a bra on, just the curvature. Its just I am very sensitive about that kind of stuff. Things just stay at the back of my head and bother me thats all. Also Persian being confirmed with a non fluffy tail broke my heart.
Fair enough.
Tbh I wouldn’t even know how far ‘most girls do’ I literally don’t touch facebook and I only visit tiwtter pages, I don’t actually have an account.
Yeah, human memory is both a gift and a curse. There’s more than a few memories I’d like erased, that’s for sure.
You know you can make your profile private right? So people can only find your comments in the thread and not from your profile?
But oh well 😛
*discards comments about Osaka*
I would prefer if it were the opposite.
Why? Nobody reads old threads anyway.
Without watching the video am I doing it right?
Mel-ay Mel-ay
Ah-kah-lah
Oo-luh oo-luh
Poh-nee
Yellow Island
Pink Island
Red Island
Purple Island
Pretty much. *not 100% convinced you didn’t watch the video :P*
They’re pretty easy though, I think that other guy was an exception XD
pokemon core series will releases nintendo switch???
Who is ready for HD Pokemon Games from GameFreak? Seriously, I love the new marketing, third-party support, and potential of the Nintendo Switch. I want the next Pokemon Games to be on the system to assist Nintendo in pushing units. I’d like a D/P remake in a similar style to S/M, but in HD. What do you all want to see?
Depends whether they’re going down the main series, battle revolution or Colusseum/XD route.
I want something Colusseumy.
Colosseum was the best of them, I’d like to see something similar in future.
I got a gamecube on my 9th birthday with Colosseum, and didn’t know you needed memory cards so I got just after Venus and left it running as long as I could but the store was closed. I cried so hard.
XD was ok as well, I usually treat them as joint.
I kind of preferred XD’s “here’s Eevee, choose an evolution” approach though.
What I really liked are the admins though. Such variety, such character, and the teams weren’t type-locked.
In fairness I never got to play XD, I’ve seen gameplay though and I prefer the characters of Colosseum. Though I do like being able to choose how Eevee evolves, I thought Umbreon and Espeon were meant to represent that your character was neither/both good (Espeon) and Bad (Umbreon, Dark=Evil in Japanese as I’m sure you know).
The Admins were great. This was essentially showing a Pokémon Game working well without Gyms.
Like BW2, I doubt Gen 7’s followup game is likely still on the 3DS. Gen 8 Switch, then Sinnoh Remake as well on Switch.
I also wanna see a new Pokemon Battle Revolution, it’s about time!
so if anyone saw heartstone might be coming to Switch, thats one step closer to our overwatch port.
I play overwatch
overwatch is amazingly fun
I am only good at Mercy Mei D.Va, Symmetra, and Widowmaker
Take pride in being a good sniper.
I will because I can’t do anything else lol
I’d try overwatch if it had a demo where I can test if my PC can handle it. Is there one?
oh no i play on ps4 i cant play shooters or most pc games on pc involving multiplayer outside of lol or smite. I am better with an actual controller,
Ah I see. Well my question still stands in case people know if there’s overwatch PC demo I can test with. 🙂
I don’t believe their is, though I’m pretty certain the spec’s for it are easy enough to find for you to see for yourself.
I did the specs calculator, and it feels inconclusive. Like my CPU is 85% as good as the best CPU nowadays but my video card is 35% of the best video card… (so… video card is trash?)
edit: Note I’m on a laptop so there’s no upgrading video card.
Actually I have an idea. I’ll try PALADINS first. And if that works, then I go buy Overwatch.
yeah that’s a good test. Though if you know for certain what model your Video card is, Overwatch recommends only a 660 GTX. So fairly old parts still really work well for it. I run a 970 on mine and its looks great. And one sat I’ll upgrade to that 1080 beauty. When the’re a bit cheaper.
I’m not sure if the laptop nvidia cards follow the numbering hierarchy though, and Street Fighter V PC is kinda unoptimized anyway but makes that video card a bit hot causing slowdown. But we’ll see. I can download Paladins in the weekend.
They do follow traditional numbering for the most part. They might be a bit weaker, but their generally comparable. So if you have anything that’s 700 series(three years old or so), you’ll be more then fine.
I have a 980 and i thought I had a heating problem installed monitors never goes above 70 c, however I do have slight card crashes that I can alt ctrl del out off which only happens on smite every so often no other game, and sims 3 every thirty minutes gives me a kernel power 43 error but i dont know how to install parts i want a new psu but my ex is being coy about it, and if I have to uninstall and reinstall the other components to do the psu I have decided I am simply buying another computer with a 1080.
i would play overwatch, but Wow is my truer calling
once u go overwatch u dont go back
i played it, and i’m playing wow this very second
i’m one bar away from hitting 109 on my Shaman
Tyrande Whisperwind is my wow identity.
hmmmmmmmm i’m torn between Magni Bronzebeard, Thrall, and my all time absolute favorite Wow character of all time

I keep getting confused between Hearthstone (the popular card game) and Stonehearth (and indie voxel survival RTS game I support)
Just as I had hoped, the Switch has me hyped for Nintendo, and games in general, once again. Next year is a fresh start. By extension I’m also more hyped for Sun and Moon than I have ever been in the past. I’ve spent so long waiting for this day and it was worth it.
I hope we get a direct soon 😀
We have an Animal Crossing Direct in a few weeks. While it might just be for New Leaf DLC, we could easily get a teaser for Animal Crossing Switch! Because of this Direct I don’t think we’ll get the Switch Direct until December.
End of the year Switch Direct or Start of the new year direct im guessing
Yeah, December or January it is. But I just don’t care anymore. I couldn’t be happier with the reveal.
So i was thinking
let me set the story, a few weeks ago my and my brother went to best buy and they were letting costumers test the new Playstation VR helmet and i liked it
then it got me’a’thinking, what if the next Animal crossing was VR
you would have a first person view of your animal crossing town, actually interact with townsfolk, much more interactive fishing and bug collecting and you take customizing your home to a whole new perspective ]
frankly this sounds all amazing but my brother made one crucial point
He thinks that the more…enthusiastic players would live inside their helmets and that’s a problem
3d gives me migraines and siezures I will happily opt out of vr. Not to mention my intense fear of zombies and horror genre in general.
i totally get you, i truly and honestly think i might becoming epileptic, i can’t stand bright lights, strobes, and flashes anymore
going blind is my all time biggest fear, if i can’t see definitely…game over man…. can’t game, can’t read write or draw….just game over
Yeah, no migrains or siezures for me, but I simply dislike it VR in general, it gives me mild headaches and really disorients me.
I don’t think the Switch will have VR, at least not until a few years into its life cycle. But we’re definitely getting a new mainline Animal Crossing game soon, no doubt about it. The features of the Switch are just perfect for the series. I just hope we don’t have to wait until 2018.
WAIT WHAT??? when??? I must have forgotten about this
Animal Crossing Direct? November 2
YAY, thanks
If there’s not a new main animal crossing I’m done
Can’t find the joke I wanted to respond with ; n ;
First world problems.
so we have
Skyrim Remasterd
NBA 2K17??
Just Dance (ew)
3D Mario
Mario kart 9/8.5
Splatoon 2/1.5
Breathe of the wild
Sonic 2017
NX year will look pretty good for it already. and seeing all the devs on board it will be amazing most likely
I’m guessing Mario will be revealed at E3 2017 and released in the holidays with Sonic. I have a feeling that the Switch’s first E3 will be historic.
Super Smash Bros 4 Switch edition with more playable characters and stages, and we all know many people will buy it
I’m positive I will play it much more than the Wii U and 3DS versions combined. That’s because I always felt conflicted about playing one over the other. Now there is no guilt about whether I spend more time on home console or handheld.
we all know ice climbers and/or wolf will come with it hands down, thats all you gotta show for people to buy it lol
All these ports a kinda depressing me; it’d much rather they focus their effort on new things rather than just adding a few things onto and same game that I now have to buy twice. One or two is fine, but I don’t want them to port ALL the good Wii U games to either the 3ds or the Switch, it’s sorta making me feel there was no point in buying the Wii U.
Smash bros is a shoo in for a port tho. MK,Splatoon and smash being the biggest titles i can see being the only 3 and we know 2 already. smash seems more likely now
But Mario Maker and YWW are getting 3DS ports now, and I feel like as a Wii U owner there was no point; I could’ve experienced the best games without buying a Wii U.
–
I do want a Xenoblade X port though.
This is a console that they will be supporting for a long time. I’m sure they’re getting Wii U remasters out of the door within the first few years and then focusing on completely new experiences.
I don’t want for my experiences for the first few years to be mostly ports though, there’s no real incentive to buy the console.
I think Switch could show up on something like CES 2017 first (January).
I think there’s enough time to release NBA 2K17 port. People will still get it coz mobile and HD.
And a confirmed pokemon game coming.
And I am SO HYPED for NBA 2k17. Those graphics are gonna be sweeet plus you can play it on the GO!!!!!!!!
And a dragon Quest Game
