27 days left till Sun and Moon
waiting is hard
Try waiting 32 days, then you can complain about waiting :p
lol I feel bad for you
Hoping Europe sells it early again…..
Some of the guys from GameXplain who played Sun/Moon early were answering some questions – nothing specific because of the NDA, but they could talk about certain things. I asked one of them if trading was available in the first 2 hours. He said no.
I’m a little disappointed. tbh. XY was amazing – even before you hit Santalune you could trade Pokemon. And wondertrade made it even more fun.
How many people were able to play the first 2 hours?
And were they all on each others friends lists; online at the same time?
Is there even already an online service for trading or Wondertrade in Sun/Moon?
I think, they just couldn’t trade, because the amount of people being able to play the game was so limited and supervised
Doesn’t necessarily mean you couldn’t trade the moment you get the Pokedex in the finished games
Or is trading only available in the Festival Plaza?
I’m fairly sure we’ve seen that Wonder Trading is still available.
Yes… and maybe like a Pokemon Present funcion- like in that Shooting Star trailer?
So… Did they like… Show off a Z-move for Mimikkyu… Because what’s with that random Mimikkyu Trailer?
Either it was the Fairy Z-Move or a special one for it
I’m guessing Special because of the Lyrics.
Officially 4 Weeks away
Next week I’m gonna request the 18th-20th off from work (I’ll get my “wisdom teeth out”)
Buy a gallon of water, some chips and sit in my gravity chair All. Day. Long.
knowing my luck ill be working the midnight and the day after.
Sounds like a pretty sweet plan. You going to a Midnight release or getting it delivered?
I will see if they are any midnight releases
I don’t think I’ll go to the city because it was a nightmare for XY
But luckily my toys r us is not super crowded for big releases
Besides my Moon copy I prebought might come early but I want Sun to be my main
How come you pre-bought Moon and not Sun then? Do people queue up with chairs etc for these things? I’ve never been to a Midnight release.
I got super lucky and have a nine day break from school lol
Alright I know I’ve said it a few times but since the reveal who is your team gonna be mine
100% gonna be on it
Popplio
Tsareena
Mimikyu
Alolan Sandslash or Muk
Gumshoos, Komala, or Snorlax
Weavile, Togedemaru, or Lycanroc
Litten
Wimpod
Rockruff(Night)
Alola Muk
Palossand
Oranguru
I don’t know how efficient my team will be, but I like their designs.
Rowlet
Silvally (I hope it’s available since it’s my absolute favorite of gen 7)
Lycanroc
Vikavolt
Drampa
Mudsdale
https://s22.postimg.org/xq51ujbhd/SM_team.png
This looks similar to my brothers team except his is
Rowlet or Litten
Lycanroc (midday)
Mudsdale
Pikipek
Kommo-o
Oranguru (traded to him via me)
Heatigre
Lycanroc
Bewear
Carapod
Mudsdale
Kommo-o
YEAH BEWEAR!
yes yes it was more of a settle
honestly nothing looks good this gen
I’m surprised you’re going with bewear over crabrawler
It’s still up for debate
I want to see how it turns out
Crabrawler is big and buff though. There’s still an air of cuddliness to bewear even if it’s not exactly cute
Sirenade (gunna be sad if that isn’t its name lol)
Lycanroc Midday
Tsareena
Bewear
Salandit2
Ninetails
Oh I just realized my nicknames for them here they are (some are gender based)
Popplio-Male-Goofball
Female-Mermaiden
Tsareena- Majesty
Mimikyu-Male-Rags
Female- Mimi
Alolan Muk-Male-The Blob
Female-Rainbow
Alolan Sandslash-Ice
Lycanroc- Howler
Komala-Cuddles
The rest really don’t have a nickname yet
I don’t nickname my pokemon.
I only do it now after I beat it it if I feel it really needs one
I really hope you get a male popplio lol
also, my buddy, the d-man’s team:
Rowlet3
Crabrawler2
Wimpod2
Golem
Marowak
Sandslash
Rowlet 3
Lycanroc (Sun)
Pyukumuku
Kommo-O
Alolan Marowak, Turtonator, or
I think I’ve come to terms with the Pokemon I want. I currently have 5 Pokemon that cover 16 of the typings (offensively at least lol) They are:
Litten Line
Grubbin Line
Crabrawler Line
Wimpod Line
Sandygast Line
The only typings I need to take care of are fighting and Fairy (unless I missed something) And that’s only assuming Litten gets dark type and Wimpod keeps it’s water typing. Either way I think this team is solid. I am sad tho…….this means I likely won’t be using Bewear until my second playthrough……(if at all) *sad face*
I think Bewear will learn Play Rough. Both Ursaring and Beartic do through Egg Moves. Plus there may be a new Fairy attack it can learn. So unless you need the STAB/Resists then you probably can still use it.
That’s true, but unless it learns something like that naturally it’d be a waste for my first play through as I wouldn’t be breeding for my team. I’m still working out the kinks for now. will likely not have a full on final team until the game launches lol
Maybe it will learn it naturally, possibly not until a late level or by re-learning as a Bewear, that should be accessible on your play-through. I will probably not know my full team until nearer release, I have an extra 5 days in the UK to think about it orz
Moon Run-
Popplio
Tsareena
Mimikyu
Salandit
Crabrawler
Wimpod or Alien Spider
*I’m glad that Mimikyu learns Thunderbolt because flying type moves would have been a pain to deal with
Sun Run-
Litten
Morelull
Alola Muk
Wimpod or Alien Spider (whichever one I didn’t pick for the first one)
Anchor Pokémon
Sea Urchin Pokémon
*I haven’t at all thought about coverage for this one so it is very likely to undergo drastic changes.
Rowlet
Wimpod
Salandit
Lycanroc midday
Crabrawler
Spider thing if its typing doesn’t repeat something above. If it does, maybe Oranguru. Not sure.
Actually, can’t use Oranguru cause this is my sun team. Welp. Idk about that last spot

Litten
Lycanroc
Oricorio
Kommo-o
Sea Urchin
Potentially Komala
so anyone see that Mario Pikachu is a official thing now
My wish come true, …….where is that?
Am I the only one that’s confused about how Pikipek evolves into a toucan ?
well, it might just be a wink wink nudge nudge on how the shape of the finches at the Galapagos islands went from being straight to being curved, but I’m not 100% sold on that.
It could be, but that is a crazy stretch. Woodpeckers are insectivores, while toucans eat fruits, and eggs from other bird’s nests. Toucans are jerks. lol
that’s why in not 100% sold. also, woodpeckers/toucans aren’t finches lol. just a guess, buts its the best I could think of. I think they at least look neat. oh yeah spoilers and stuff I forgot lol. my bad.
Well, apparently Toucans and woodpeckers belong in close families, but they are vastly different despite that fact, but it’s Game Freak’s design so we’ll just have to live with it XD
Oops. I forgot about it, too. XD
No I’m confused as well
Good I’m not alone, but anyway I just can’t really see Pikipek growing a very large beak and also having Skill Link in its final form
they both have giant ass beaks
Don’t forget they have same family too.
I mean we have a fish that becomes an octopus
True, I love Octillery <3
That’s true
Can we get a morning after thoughts post? This chat is too cluttered now lol
You think this is cluttered? You should’ve been here when XY was leaking, we would get over 10,000 comments per article.
Haha You’re right I wasn’t here for that. But I just don’t like that Disqus doesn’t put everything in chronological order of original post. Every time the page gets reloaded or revisited I have to hunt down new comments which means after a certain point I just don’t. haha

Looks like the beginning of an yaoi
I was trying to post 2 pictures (the first is below) but I messed up the order
It wouldn’t let me post two at the same time anyone know how

Turns out Mimikyu was right, all you have to do to get attention from GF is dress up like a Pikachu: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cni6rP6pnxw
Taking video from other channel and pot ur logo on it that’s completely sucks.
This is just where I saw it first. But yeah, I personally don’t agree with how GX reposts every trailer/video on their own channel.
Translated Lyrics
YO YO, listen to Mimikyu’s rap
I’m not Pikachu, I’m Mimikyu, you hear
Just a lonesome little Mimikyu, you hear
The sun in the sky it’s just a little scary
The places I love are where it’s nice and gloomy
I really want to be friends with all of you
That’s why I try to be just like Pikachu
These clothes I’m wearing, you think they look fitting?
I made them myself, isn’t that amazing?
Don’t flip it up, that’d just be the worst
If you take a peak, you might get cursed
I’m not Pikachu, I’m Mimikyu, you hear
I’m not a monster, I’m Mimikyu, you hear
With my big claws I’ll definitely protect you
With Thunderbolt I’m sure to be a help to you
I’ll train to be your ally to the end
So please, won’t you make me your friend?
I’m not Pikachu, I’m Mimikyu, you hear
Let’s become friends, I’m Mimikyu, you hear
I’m not Pikachu, I’m Mimikyu, you hear
Just a lonesome little Mimikyu, you hear
I’m not Pikachu, I’m Mimikyu, you hear
I’m not a monster, I’m Mimikyu, you hear
I’m not Pikachu, I’m Mimikyu, you hear
Let’s become friends, I’m Mimikyu, you hear

Thanks!! 😀
I’m confused as to why they keep repeating “I’m not Pikachu”, I mean, anyone who has ever seen a pikachu can tell that it isn’t a pikachu lol.
I think the point is that it’s a song and those are the lyrics! 🙂
They couldn’t’ve come up with something less, idk, obvious? xD
Burn that sock puppet
you hear?
I’m usually lurking around
I’m sure he has ears
Who else has has to deal with a horrible release period for SuMo?
If it released the same time in the UK as everywhere else then it’d be good but it’s a Wednesday so that means three days of school ;-;
Me, UK resident as well, I will need to see some of the stuff to do with stats, moves etc of the new ‘mon but otherwise I’ll have to leave for a while to avoid story spoilers.
i might be working the midnight of it
I’m hoping my gamestop does a midnight release.
It sucks I know
but europe deserves itNah fam Nintendo plays favourites with America and JapanBut europe got BW so early it was unfair. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/82932096ffff4195a3bbe7d9d53206551aa7570191809e454e7149d217c41f92.pngTwo days when we got Platinum two months laterHey we’re talking about BW here. I had to wait two whole days of miseryTry to whole monthsI had to wait four months for Yoshi’s Woolly WorldTry waiting months for a good game :pYWW was. . .alrighthow do I do slashy stuff so I can whisper in too, as that’s how I’m reading this, in whispers.
(strike)words(/strike)
replace the ( ) with
oh kinda like spoiler tags. I see.Yeah. The point of them is so it looks like you were going to say something but then scratched it out lol. At least that’s my take on it.
I’ve been able the same with just doing
:pwhy is that? i’ve been looking for a straight answer as to why ever since the release date was revealed to no avail.
When you realise you’ve only got 25 hours left to wait
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a3a75db422b79cb4bcd9b9f4361cddabbc1c4be12bd08ce3ff70df52a011521e.gif
yeah I cant wait! :3
Improvements
Improvements everywhere

I hope Yang will be alright, she’s my favorite… I also hope its a vast improvement over season 3. poor Monty’s death had a very noticeable impact on the choreography of action scenes.
I’m really excited to see where all the characters go from now, especially Yang (most story potential imo) and Weiss (my favourite character)
Yeah, it sucks but I feel the team’s doing the best they can to honour Monty 😀
Until?
RWBY, Vol. 4 is released by RoosterTeeth
Oh, okay…?
its a show. Imagine shooting up pure 100% over the top action. that’s what RWBY is. and its free!
Hmm. Alright then. xD
I’m super excited! I punch out of work at 11:30 pm on the 17th, then go straight to my midnight release! I’m not sure I will be able to sleep that night.
>.> So lucky! My store said they don’t know if they’re doing a midnight release.
mine said “its by far the most popular pre order we’ve had since the store opened, of course we are doing a midnight event”
The only midnight release I’ve ever been to is SSB4 3DS, and I got there at like 11:30 and was 41st in line (they split us up into groups of ten and I was alone lol), so I feel like they’d need a lot of preorders to do an event at my store. Has your store recently opened?
no they’ve been there for about 8 years now.
That’s actually pretty surprising that this is their most pre-ordered game then.
x and y was heavily pre ordered too, and so was ORAS. they had a midnight event for each of them. (and I got smash for wii u on the same night as ORAS as they had the same release date so that was cool.)
Cool man. I’m just going to order a copy from amazon. Cheaper and their good about having new releases arriving on the day of release.
Thanksgiving Break begins for me and I get to fly back home on Nov. 17th. I pre-ordered the game so I will be able to play it just as my break from University starts.
I pre-ordered one version on Amazon Prime so I get it the day it’s released. Then the other two games I go get at GameStop, whether it’s at midnight on the 17th or the 18th. I’m excited! The demo got me amped up even more.
So the new generations episode is up, featuring Wendy Lee, the voice of every female anime character ever.
Hahah, I just got done watching a Monster High movie and she did the voice of a character and I don’t think it was possible to ham it up any farther. On a scale of 1 to 10, it was a 15. Slightly related: she also dubbed the voice of Scorpina in the original Power Rangers. Too bad they barely used that character.
And I thought the Wii U looked easy to break…
At least they’re getting Skyrim on it, or you know, some game that *isn’t* Mario.
Not that I could afford it anyway, it looks pretty expensive, and did I mention breakable?
nintendo switch featuring VR tools accessories???
I’d love a Xenoblade 3 for this
have the mech combat from 2nd one and you know likable characters, ground battle system and story like the 1st one had, be perfect +__+
