Hey everybody, it’s time for a new Mascot Pokémon Showdown. But first, the winner of last time is Lugia with an amazing 50%!
Now we’re moving on to Hoenn. Generation III came out in 2002 in Japan and in 2003 in the rest of the world. This generation is home to three games: Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald. Generation III introduced some new and great aspects to the series, like weather, double battles and the Battle Frontier.
Pokémon Ruby Version
Pokémon Ruby showed Groudon, the Continent Pokémon, on its cover. Groudon has the ability to stimulate volcanic eruptions to create land and convoke acute droughts to evaporate water. Because Groudon has these amazing powers, Team Magma is after it to create a giant landmass. However, it sleeps underground in a chamber filled with magma. When it awakens and encounters its rival, they will start a catastrophic battle.
Groudon’s signature move is Precipice Blades, a powerful Ground-type attack. In its primal form, Groudon is the heaviest Pokémon of all time and has the highest base Attack stat of all Ground and Fire Pokémon. It may be based on the Hebrew legends of Behemoth, an isopod or an ankylosaur. The name Groudon derives from ‘ground‘ and ‘don‘ (‘lord’ in Spanish).
Pokémon Sapphire Version
Pokémon Sapphire featured Kyogre on the cover, the Sea Basin Pokémon. It is a gigantic whale-like creature who possesses the ability to expand oceans. Kyogre is also able to control water and rain to drench withered places with water again—the reason Team Aqua wants to use Kyogre.
The signature move of this Pokémon is called Origin Pulse, a Water-type attack that was introduced in ORAS. When it is in its primal form, Kyogre has the highest Special Attack, Special Defense and base stat total of all Water-type Pokémon. It is based on the Leviathan, the Hebrew counterpart of the Behemoth. Its name comes from ‘kai‘ (海, ocean) and ‘orca‘.
Pokémon Emerald Version
Pokémon Emerald featured Rayquaza, the Sky High Pokémon. This Pokémon is a snake-like dragon that lives in the ozone layer. It has an organ that resembles a Mega Stone, which enables it to Mega-evolve without an item. It is famous for soothing the other two of the weather trio.
Mega Rayquaza has the highest Attack, Special Attack and base stat total of all Dragon and Flying types. It is based on, again, a Hebrew legend, namely the Ziz. It’s an unconquerable master of the sky. Its name probably derives from ‘raqiya‘ (Hebrew for firmament) and ‘quasar‘ (a region surrounding a black hole).

Wat should I do If I like Groudon and Emerald?
My fave gen…
I know Rayquaquay will win (I love it)
But I MUST make KYOGRE AT LEAST SECOND

I actually like all of these pokemon
me too! (provided this is all of the pokemon ever)
Rayquaza will obviously win. And it’s deserved. But I hope Groudon gets second place. Kyogre is my least favorite of the trio.
hmm, who to pick… obviously not Groudon
Quasar
Voted for Groudon, but I have admit Mega RayRay is probably better lol
Eww Rayquaza’s winning
Overrated IMO
The other ones are just so bland IMO, it’s not that I like Rayquaza that much.
Also PMD.
Kyogre is the best one tbh, Rayquaza follows closely behind
Ray ray is bae bae
Why didn’t I get a Dratini from the Blackthorn elders? I answered their questions
You need to give Compassionate Answers
I did? He called me a compassionate trainer
Then I dunno
Have to leave and go back for it
Coming to slay the competition https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9b5cfdd1f87d353879c6013713740669178d6ffc437fefbffae3e8a74869cda3.gif
All three of them are majestic. I refuse to vote
You know who the best is

Hey, that’s not Groudon!
So I just realised
Rayquaza’s Green
It’s called the Sky High Pokémon…
Hope my joke wasn’t a little bit too blunt

Aww I really dont want to reset Y purely because I love how cute my character looks. I mean I have to finish Black 2 first anyways but blaaah I dont want to have to buy it all again! Hopefully clothes will be easy to access early game and will be cheap in SuMo
I wanted to reset my X and do another play through too but my dex is complete. It’s only a little while longer! We will survive!
I haven’t played B2W2 since my original playthrough. I only have W2. I need to pick up a B2 so I can re-experience the magic.
I’m replaying X right now (trying to get through again before SM). I’m giving my Pokemon dumb nicknames this time to make the game a little more fun. xD

Kyogre takes on Groudon on his own turf….and still gets wrecked

Gotta give this one to my boy Groudon. The beast of the land.
Also it’s Primal is eons better than Kyogres.
However I actually love all three of these guys.
it looks like pizza
I don’t see the problem here
lol
Kyogre flying is so silly to me. Its just this whale orca thing just flying through the sky
Sorry for reposting this from the past article, but in my defense it was on an old article this morning when some people wouldn’t of been on:
I don’t know if anyone has was interested in it is online right now, but if any of you see this, remember that tourney thing I was writing? Decided to change it up a bit by making it an all 3v3 round robin (so everyone can fight everyone) and let you all vote for who you want to win! 😀
Sadly, this means that everyone who applied with their teams will have to reapply (and I’m removing my character from it in order to make it fair in case you guys vote for me to make the choice) and if the reapplication process leads to an odd number of applicants, I’ll have to remove one or wait for another applicant to even begin writing. Sorry for being a pain guys, but I feel that this is the way to make the most amount of people happy whilst also not ruining the surprise of people reading!
There’s also two templates, for your trainer and three Pokémon. There’s also a few rules 😡
1) Only one Gen VI Pokémon (minimises guesswork)
2) No legendaries or mythicals (includes Silvally as for all we know only one or two were ever produced)
3) For the luls, it’s a monotype tournament! However, types are allowed to be repeated.
4) If you want to use a Z-Move, the name of it in at least one country and at least a big chunk of its animation must be present. Name of the Z-Crystal doesn’t matter as it’d be mostly inconsequential.
And now, onto the template:

A bit odd that I didn’t ask it in the templates, but what’s the genders for the Pokémon? You can usually tell from nicknames but you have none 😮
And thanks for the submission!
All Male for mine and your welcome
Mine are all male too by the way
Thanks for the details!
Wait will this be a real fight or a story you’ll make?
It’s a story made from jungle submitted characters.
Oh ok
Rayquaza>Kyogre>>>>Groudon
Your arrows are the wrong way round 🙂
:p
Groudon is so not cute
I prefer Kyogre overall, but I have to say I do love Rayquaza because of its role in the original Mystery Dungeon games.
Hmm, GameStop is getting their shipments this weekend, huh?
Keeping my eyes peeled, I must avoid story spoilers at all costs (though if there are leaks I’m interested in hearing about the new Pokemon and post game secrets).
If I was on America I’d be ‘subtly’ hinting at gamestop that I wanted an early copy
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3f30e8e3681441883722d666ce8364e0a883c20d3f432fc9b2d00845df4ebe70.gif
Just ask who you have to suck
I suck at Mario Kart, does that count?
Is Mario gonna give you an early copy?
Well he is Nintendo’s homeboi so maybe?
So wait can you use a Z move witth one pokemon AND mega evolve in one battle?
Wait really?
RIP Gen 7 Metagame
2016-2016
Nvm, I thought this just got confirmed somehow.
Why wouldn’t you be able to? Megas and Z-Moves aren’t connected at all. I don’t understand the problem.
Maaaybe, I mean they both run off of friendship and that but at the same temperature they’re channelled via different mediums
Do you mean, can the same pokemon use a z move and mega evolve?
I don’t think she means that since it’d require a Mega Stone and a Z-Crystal and you can’t hold both (unless you’re Mega Ray)
Yeah that’s why I asked, was gonna say no in response. But speaking of Mega Rayquaza, a Mega Rayquaza holding a flying z crystal using its z-move on Dragons Ascent. I feel like that’d knock any pokemons HP out three times over.
Rip poor Pokémon
Got nukequaza’d :<
By a raydioactive bomb
I feel Mega Rayquaza should have it’s Mega revoked or it banned from being transferred into Sun & Moon if it has Dragon Asscent and It should be stripped of obtaining the use of any Z-Move
I think Mega Rayquaza can still be used, just nerfed. Like make a mega stone for it and that should solve half the issues people have with it.
I really hope there is a place in game where we can see all three other islands faintly in the distance. Just a random thought I had lol.
Iirc you can see a city in Kalos from Victory Road so I can see this happening!
Maybe at the League on Mount Lanikila(?)
Maybe you can see each island from different points on Aether island?
I would’ve thought that this close to release the comments would be picking up.
Oh well, soon enough something interesting will happen I hope.
Maybe you can make some fan projects? People seem to like those, like me writing stories seems to get people interested so why don’t you do something you’re good at and get others interested? 😀
Maybe a tournament or something?
So I’ve been theorizing that Gen 1 might get a re-remake. But with SuMo being the size that it is and with Kanto Alolan forms and your trainer having come from Kanto and everyone here keeps hoping for Kalos post-game… What if we end up going to Kanto for the post-game? xD
Would absolutely love the idea, yet for me it seems like it wouldn’t happen since we just revisited Kanto with the Virtual Console ones on the 3DS
I’d be super down. But I’m not going to expect any other region to be part of a post-game. As much as I’d like them to be there.
IMO it’s more likely than Kalos (and to be fair, heavily hinted at at this point), but it’s unlikely IMO.
Agreed
Aside from the fact that I don’t think there’s enough data in the game to account for two regions, I think Kanto would’ve been much more likely a candidate that Kalos. I believe that if anything we may see the Sevii Islands since they’re technically Kanto but not as large.
FINALLY my vote lands in the majority xD Always loved Rayquaza.
I just knew Rayquaza would win, there was no other way. It is the first time my opinion is that of the majority.
http://pre01.deviantart.net/6fde/th/pre/i/2016/306/6/4/decidueye_incineroar_primarina_by_ghostekey-dan4wcd.png
I wish we could go back to Kalos so they can fix it
Viva la PokéFrance
OK so I need advice, so as most of you know I’m cray about fairies so my moon team is going to be a mono-fairy team, but today I have been thinking about doing a mono-ghost team for pokemon sun. Now ghost is my second fav type but there are also some other pokemon I like so heres my team choices, which one should I do?
Decidueye
Alolan Marowak
Pollosand
Sensu Oricorio
Mismagius
Sableye
-or-
Decidueye
Pom Pom Oricorio
Lycanrock
Minior
Tserena
and either alolan Raticate or evolite A Meowth
replace lycanrock with Pykumuku actually
Monotypes are fun, but I’d suggest you have at least one casual run ^^
fair. I do mono-types because I have super bad OCD but I think in game I will be ok not to, maybe I’ll do one where I use just what I catch and see how it goes
Really hope I’m not annoying people with this tourney thing, but as it’s asking opinions from not just people wanting to get involved but pretty much anyone, I decided to do it separately.
In a monotype tournament, would you guys think it should be any type they want so people can get what they want, or one per type to vary it a bit?
Whoever gets dragon is going to win
Not necessarily, winning is going to be determined by author’s choice and/or voting and it depends on what the Dragon user chooses.
That said I’m sure Haxford would enjoy a good victory :p
not while fairy exists
Iron head garchomp says otherwise
girl please that things slow as hell, my Granbull will use it as a chewtoy
You do realize it’s insanely fast?
And not for nothing Garchomp is just better then Granbull in every shape and form
Yeah gotta agree with Earthen a bit on this one, Granbull will get outsped but if it has Intimidate + Play Rough it may be able to survive and take Garchomp out? But it’ll be child’s play for anything that comes after Garchomp
I have never in my life lost to either a Grachomp or a mega Garchomp
I wouldn’t call 92 insanely fast there buddy…
It’s 102 prior to mega which makes it very fast
I’m aware, I just don’t like it
Oh, Fae, forgot to ask earlier but do you want to be a background character like you did in the earlier iteration or take a crack at it due to it being monotype?
if you wanna put me in it I just wanna be on the sidelines throwing shade lol, my top fairies you can give me are Swirlix or either of the morelulls, but that being said I don’t need to be in it, it would just be cool
Nah it’d be a blessing to have another character on the side lines, it’s going to be through the perspective of my character who’s going to be a hopeful Fairy specialist from Alola watching to build up monotype skills so it’d be cool for another Fairy fan to be with him to have dialogue with.
Would you mind if I asked you to fill out a character template though?

Thanks!
So I just realised that yours an Star’s characters are from the same place with the same type speciality, maybe your character is a fan of hers?
Maybe we’re related, as a researcher I feel like I wouldn’t really be a fan of a pokemon trainer, but I can still be her #1 stan supporter her from the sidelines, maybe I don’t know she’s there and its some sort of reunion idk its your story and we all know its gunna be amazing
I think you’d need to ask her first, but even your two characters being friends would be interesting!
I think it should be 1 type per person with no repeats. I think that’s what you’re asking
Thanks for the input! Luckily no type overlaps have occurred yet for a problem to arise but I do feel that one per type is the way to go!
Yeah unless there was a story arc where the two people were related or had some history and the battle between them was more personal than the tournament to see who was a better master of the type.
Rayquaza is the best Legendary Pokemon ever IMHO
If there are indeed leaks, I hope they happen on Monday, since I’m off school that day for whatever reason, so I’ll be able to keep up.
as long as they aren’t story leaks… i don’t want to see those and they are so hard to ignore
Yeah, I don’t want those.
What leaks?
Supposedly shipments of the game are arriving in the US, meaning that it’s likely somebody will get the game early.
Shoot them down no more leaks of anything we 13 days to left on this boat trip there
So the games come out on the 18th for everyone but Europe, so does that mean that Japan and Australia get them way earlier and thus have the opportunity to post spoilers a day or so before?
Yeah pretty much.
I just don’t want story leaks. I don’t mind thebpokemon leaks and even their stats and such. But I don’t want the story ruined
the 3 pokemon that their megas and forms completely destroyed the meta. No one gets my vote
http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/zuluuluz/63433173/86546/86546_600.gif
true tho
Can’t wait to see Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina do the same.
me when Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza broke the meta: This is so stupid, so dumb this is not fun there is no way we can beat these things
me when Dialga, Palkia and Giratina gets the same treatment: WOO HOO THIS IS AMAZING THIS IS THEIR TRUE POWER, THIS IS LEGIT THANK YOU POKEMON
Ahh….good times. When Rayquaza became the first Pokemon to break Ubers. When Groudon said f**k you to 90% of Ubers….And when Kyogre dropped like a rock.
has anything changed or the meta is still those 3?
I dunno. I havent played Ubers in ages. I guess those three are better than seeing Xerneas and Arceus everywhere.
And Mega Rayquaza got banned from Ubers anyway.
As only Mega Rayquaza can
white herb Xerneas was so overused and annoying
I actually never had trouble with it.
Cos I always used at least one of Mega Scizor, Primal Groudon or Banded Ho-Oh.
Also once I used Specially Defensive Dialga with Roar to phase them every time they tried setting up on me.
I hate the obedience system. I’m doing a Ghost run through Platinum and had to trade over my entire team. Now my Pokemon won’t obey me because I can’t beat Gardenia, and I can’t beat Gardenia because my Pokemon won’t obey me. It’s a vicious cycle.
I’m going to do a run of Platinum at some point and I have to trade over Murkrow and Misdreavus
Hope this doesn’t happen to me e-e
If it’s just two that won’t listen you’ll probably be fine, but none of my six will obey me. :/
That sucks :/
What Pokémon you using?
Gastly, Misdreavus, Sableye, Shuppet, Duskull, and Drifloon.
Why didn’t you just catch a Ghastly in the Old Chateau? :p
But really awesome team!
I wanted it from the beginning.
Fair enough
I’d replace it now if it weren’t for the fact that mine is one level from evolving now. :p
Hopefully evolution will let you brute force Gardenia even with the obedience rule
I sure hope so! I’ve lost at least ten times because I refuse to grind them. It’s just too boring for me.
icons all of them
Drifloon is underrated
It’s powerful when used right.
The obedience system is legit.
Prevents people from blasting though the game by trading over OP as hell Pokemon
It should be a little higher IMO, maybe 5-10 levels.
Also if people are blasting through the game with those that’s their problem lol.
It’s okay in recent games, but when I have to beat Gardenia to allow Pokemon above level 10 to obey me, it’s a bit ridiculous. What made them think a level 10 cap would be okay against a Gym Leader whose weakest Pokemon is in its 20s?
But it’s not like the game is difficult enough to warrant that though
Most of the time you have to do a challenge run to make it actual hard challenging rather than ‘it takes slightly longer but victory is inevitable’ challenging.
I lost to Elesa with a lvl.50 Melloetta
If you could remove one character from the games because he/she bothers you, who would it be? Or why wouldn’t you wanna remove a character?
I’d remove Charon. He’s an irrelevant pompous ass, and the games wouldn’t be terribly affected if he ceased to exist.
Cheren. so bland, so boring, and he should not have been a gym leader
Tierno, nowhere near as interesting as Trevor or Shauna and with one less friend in XY the others could’ve got better development.
Wait Trevor or Tierno?
Tierno! Oops XD
both tbh
Lmao yikes! But true
I love Trevor. He reminds me too much of my younger self.
That annoying as hell person who gives you the catching a Pokemon tutorial at the beginning of every game…..
Trevor, the guy really had no significance on anything in XY. I’m fine with Shauna and Tierno, though
Shauna or Brawly from ORAS
Shauna- Annoying
Brawly- Way way way to weak
Not meaning to be annoying with the tourney stuff, but I’m closing the tourney submissions at 12am so I can at least make some progress tomorrow! 😀
Also, does anyone think my avatar for SuMo is a bit of a Mary Sue? He’s a sub par trainer from Hau’oli City who keeps on trying, but has five Z-Crystals embedded within five rings engraved with a different Alolan words he inherited from his Alolan Native Grandmother (his mother and her family are Kalosian and be resembles them more), and he’s travelling to uncover where they came from.
You’re not annoying, I’m really excited about it 🙂 How many applicants do you have now?
Seven, I believe! Good thing is it’s a round robin so despite my earlier concerns it’ll work with any number!
The Gen 7 Cards are changing the Style we’ve had since Gen 5, tbh I thought Gen 6 would.
But these new ones looks simpler, but cool, better than the Gen 3 Style, these GX Cards look interesting. My favourite is this one, https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/899c20b1ad8ab5ac13dafcdec6e3fb5fe30b0d5714d4a616ba09149ead4aebc9.jpg
It’s better by far that make me think about trying TCG. http://www.pokebeach.com/news/1016/Lycanrock-GX.jpg
I freaking love the GX cards!!! I can’t wait to start opening packs trying to get them!! lol
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a21a023187840337b8ce4258900ab13340ab40551ce5d92f7436fc556085d1cb.jpg
It’s super effective
More like super adorable 😮
Sadly I had to take it away
She tore the back and was eating the fluff
I put it on the mantle and she’s crying
That’s sad, but at least she has a brilliant owner who knows what’s better for her in the long run!
It’s more about letting Daddy relax on his gravity chair and watch Netflix and not having to get up to pull stuffing out her throat
Pug used Bite!
Pikachu flinched!
Alright, so this is my planned team for my upcoming Emerald run so far:
Sceptile
Slaking
Milotic
Sandslash
The other two are undecided, but I’m looking for a flyer for the 5th slot (I don’t mind using Swellow though, it’s just I’m looking for more options). I will need help with the 6th slot, so if anyone has ideas then that would be great.
Thoughts so far?
Skarmory would be a cool flier!
And if you’re wanting a Grass/Fire/Water triangle, how about Torkoal, Magcargo or Camerupt?
Oh Skarmory could work, I completely forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me!
As for a triangle, nowadays it’s ok if I don’t have one. I don’t mind a Fire Type, like Camerupt. Yet I’ve noticed that my team really has one fast Pokemon (Sceptile) so I might want another one like that. Maybe an Electric type or something.
Yeah, I always used to be a sucker for triangle but nowadays I don’t care as much. Trying to have one for SuMo for throwback’s sake.
Manectric or Electrode are probably your best bet in that case, Pikachu is quite late, Plusle and Minun lack power, and Magneton overlaps with Skarmory (but that may not bother you)
Oh ok, so nevermind on the Electric types. I just realized that I could use Flygon, yet I already have Sandslash. Any other suggestions?
Bagon if you can find it is a really good choice! But if you can’t be bothered waiting, maybe something a bit more obscure like Hariyama or Grumpig?
Bagon is only available after the last Gym cos you need waterfall to get it. And it’s a nightmare to grind
True but Salamence is worth it e-e
I tried it once. Wasn’t worth the grind. Especially since Salamence movepool as so poor in gen 3
Oh yeah those sound good. I might get a Psychic type instead
Manectric is a decent Electric type in my opinion. Unfortunately it’s movepool in Emerald is a lot worse than it is now (it doesn’t learn Flamethrower in Emerald)
Ground type :p
Sorry fixed
Good luck with catching a Feebas and then evolving it to a Milotic
I just researched how you can get it, and I’m probably going to get another Water type. Do have suggestions?
I’d go with Sharpedo or Walrein
Alright, sounds good
Gyarados
Hope you’re trading otherwise that Milotic is gonna be a nightmare to get.
My last playthrough consisted of
Blaziken
Gardevoir (used in every playthrough)
Aggron
Weezing (first time, not worth the effort)
Flygon
Walrein
Mine so far never finished
Sceptile
Dodrio
Raichu
Sealeo
???
???
Currently running through Alpha Sapphire with
Sceptile
Mightyena
Swellow
Ninjask
Camerupt
Walrein
Of course, Swellow is great. If you’re looking for something different, I suggest trying Altaria. Usually my go-to Flying-type in Hoenn, but I thought I’d give Swellow a try this time around since I haven’t used it in ages. In addition, this is the first time I’ve ever used Camerupt and I’m loving it! It’s been fantastic so far!
Oh ok, I mean I’ve Altaria a lot lately, but thanks!
Might have Camerupt, so thanks for pointing it out
Can someone who can actually comprehend the idea of a tournament schedule help me out?
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5997a9c13c2e40d2e9e0168d96bd78ca622bf4c21daebd2a6e163ed410fb8fe3.png
Would this mean every round someone would sit out? (bye) wasn’t entered and thus is probably the blank
Wait I thought it was just a story not an actual tournament
It is, but I’m using this to determine the order in which I write each battle as it’s a round robin in the story
Where did you make this? I’ve needed something like that to do my own tournaments but never found one
http://tournamentscheduler.net
Here! It was a pain to look for, can’t believe tourney generators are such a bitch to find e-e
Thank you
And the first mono of the day is grass…
What’s your mono team? 😮
Ground duh
Lost and now a ghost disabled my Nidoking tbolt
I was meaning your team members :p
Cursed Body or Disable?
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-470620543
Eww I’d probably slap someone if I fought that Jellicent
I feel loads better http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-439505576
Eww that Fairy player was terrible e-e
*sets up Reflect on a Pokémon that uses Earth Power more than Earthquake*
*gives Choice Scarf before seeing Nidoking’s moves*
*sets up Belly Drum in a sandstorm with a Pokémon known for Toxic and Protect*
You deserved that victory, slay every typical Fairy team plz
To be fair most assume Nido is Scarf
And everyone thinks a Hippowdon has to set up stealth
And to be ultimately fair Azumarill could’ve died from waterfall but probably thought scarfed
Azumarill could’ve swept me
I didn’t watch the whole way through, their cookie cutter team put me off XD
That’s every fairy team ever
Can’t even argue with that tbh
Either that or with a Sylveon
Eeyup but a Iron head would’ve solved that
Like honestly it’s my favourite type but I’ve never even attempted a monotype of it becuase of how bad it is at just being seven different Pokémon in monotype.
Hopefully Primarina, the Tapu and Morelull’s evo are viable even just to get a bit of originality into Fairy Monotypes
Primarina definitely but the rest everyone is going to load up on Tapus…
And cause me eternal hell….
Gonna put it straight, Bulu is going to suck for you
Every time it switches in Earthquake gets weakened for presumably five turns and its grass moves get stronger
so much trouble…..the only one i can handle is Koko
I feel Lele might be eh for you
Filthy toxic stalling
Appalling but those spooks would’ve done it in a heartbeat
Alright people since Sun &a Moon draws near I’ve decided to build my Pokémon fan fiction for it and unlike last time I want to have real people casted as characters just I need some things

Alright but when your a rival you get a starter Pokémon along with that role

Alright I’ll make sure of it and it’s in my character list now
I. Hate. The. Plasma. Frigate
I know, right!?
God B2W2 are so hit and miss. They start out great but near the end the pacing just goes to the trash.
I mean like
-Terrorist attack on freaking Opolucid City
– Boring frozen Opolucid segment fighting team Plasma
-Gym Battle???
-Have to go through a cave full of normal, mundane trainers
-Maron sucks.
A. “Are you sure Team Plasma is reaally evil? Bro they just froze over a major city full of people!
– PLASMA FRIGATE
-PLASMA FRIGATE AGAIN OMG
And the fact the Pokémon league is conveniently so close to Giant Chasm just feels weird imo, would’ve preferred if we went around the chasm to get to the route after it
Really? It was so cool though!
Its fine until you have to go back a billion times and fight way too many pace ruining trainers
Is it because of all the complaining Hugh does on it? Because he does a lot of that. lol
That’s okay cuz he’s hot
Meh……..lol
eh
Qwilfish hair and ugly wear tho
Well that’s part of the reason. Seriously B2W2 is so good at the beggining and good in the middle but the end sucks. It also has the imo, worst gym leader Marlon and most annoying Rival
I think the one thing that I don’t like about BW2 is that they double back on the point they were trying to make in the first games. BW are all about how people shouldn’t imprison Pokemon and then BW2 basically forget all about that and give you a bad guy that once again wants to destroy/rule the world. I get Pokemon can’t get too philosophical as it would ruin the main idea of the games, but some continuity would be nice hahaha
This is what gets me about them too. BW were so well done. The theme was visible in every aspect of the game but the sequels are just boring. At least they had a great post game
Yeah Hugh kept telling me what I should do with my Pokémon
I love marlon! He’s my fav gym from Unova!
He would’ve fit Black and White 1 better
True. I mainly just like him because I like the gym design and I think Humiluo city is cool lol
Plasma Frigate was the best part of B2W2 though.
Also we have this thing we have to back track to the same place a few times in nearly every game.
In Gen 2 it was Goldenrod
Gen 3 had Lilycove and Slateport
Gen 4 had My Coronet.
Gen.5 was Nacrene city
Gen.6 Lumious
I usually dont mind it. But when Gen 4 had me go though Mt Coronet a billion times just to get to the other side of the map…damn
I just got there and flew to the other side everytime
I rarely use fliers during gameplay so backtracking is always annoying for me. Mainly cos I’m not a fan of most fliers present in-game
I have one I keep off my team like in X I used Hawlucha to fly but boxed it after
Gen 7 was Iki village.
Here is the thing though
2: Goldenrod was an open city and you went back to fight Rocket in the radio tower and wasn’t totally annoying. Also had lots of time between visits
3: Same thing
4: Mt.Cornet had different parts of it you explore at a time
The Frigate had way too many Plasma Grunts and had no space between visits.
True. But I actually enjoyed the Plasma Frigate. Better fighting trainers than running into wild Pokemon every few steps going through dungeons
I like all the fan fiction going on here! Looking forward to that.
Here’s my fan fiction: Sun and moon will suck.
It’s fiction because we all know they’ll be the best games! xD
Also god you have to fight Zinzollion so many times
This I can agree with. There are 7 sages, why the hell do you fight the same one over and over again.
Zinzolin was the only one that stayed loyal to ghetsis
Guys, for the tourney fic I’m wanting to have the battlefields change each battle. Should I have:
1) Randomised battlefields
2) Randomised two battlefields (arena consists of a battlefield split down the middle with two different biomes)
3) Randomised fused battlefields (like rainy desert, volcanic tundra, etc)
4) Split Battlefields of each combatant’s specialty type (half desert, half forest, clearly divided as an example)
5) Fused battlefields of the combatant’s types (for example, a desert with random patches of vegetation)
Um for me I like the last one best
Yeah it’s the one I kinda want because of how creative it can be!
Examples of the typed battlefields:
Dark: Graffiti’d ruins, with plenty of shadows and cover from ruined stone walls. AOE attacks will break the ruins and do more damage doing meaning quake/surf/wave away!
Fairy: A forest where the trees block out the sun, and illuminated with sprites and will-o-wisps (both are actually just light projections). Has a large amount of toadstools, solo and as Fairy circles. This causes problems for Flying Pokémon and minimises area of affect attacks such as Surf and Earthquake, but fire attacks threaten to burn it to the ground.
Grass: An open field of tall, tall grass that’ll obscure most Pokémon, with a few oak trees. Weakens Earthquake and Surf but strengthens Fire moves, however AOE attacks can be used to locate the foe.
Dragon: A craggy mountain peak, with plenty of rocks to stand upon and fire from, and dodge attacks behind. Boosts the power of seismic attacks.
Ground: A desert with some deep patches, which activates sandstorm based abilities but weakness seismic attacks whilst also giving them the ability to summon miniature sandstorm affects.
Flying: A canyon with air drafts, if the Pokémon falls down it they do not faint but automatically return to their Poké Balls if they fall to the bottom. The drafts make flying a breeze.
Sounds awesome!
I think i’m going to do a Black 2 review like I did when I replayed Y. I have so many frustrations with this game
If you have so many frustrations with it why would you torture yourself by writing a review?
Which reminds me I downloaded Black 2 on my computer and really want to play it through again
I like being able to organize my thoughts with reviews. I’ve only done it once but it kinda helps me figure out exactly what I dont like about it and why and I get to share my thoughts
Just going to say it now for my Fanfiction It will not be fully based on the plot of the games knowing I probably will start Monday after my Homework cause I have off and will get that done quick so beginning will be shaky but in the end will have similarities
And it’s not a sexual Fanfiction … no nudity scenes will be there
I hope more of us join in and I can make this a terrific Fanfiction I may post it all somewhere but for now I’ll just wright and create
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Oh that’s too bad… ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
So far the characters
Alex(me)- The hero (Popplio)
Evan- Rival (Rowlet)
Devon(My brother)- Rival (Litten)
Ava- Researcher that admires Cynthia
Leon- Proffesor Kukui’s other assistant
Jordan- A trainer who plays a bigger role than just being once and done
Belmad- A Florists daughter who has issues but will play a bigger role
Alright anymore or must I create people to fill spots in the story?
Oh right and many may wonder what about the Battle tree?
This may surprise you but here’s some that will appear
Wally
Cynthia
All 19 of my original Fanfiction characters (my characters name from the original was changed to Red)
May be there: Cyrus, N, Any of the E4 members, ect.
AAAhhh the end of Black 2 and White 2 has WAY too many battles in it. Grunts, Zinzollion (x3) Colress, Three Shadow Triads, pacing is on life support
I loved it.
Kyogre is my favorite of the three, followed by Rayquaza. So notstalgic. One of the last Pokémon games i last thoroughly enjoyed exploring because we didn’t have internet access. I just had rainy days at school and a handful of friends.
On a side note, I started a Pokémon channel because some Twitter peeps wanted to hear me talk… I’ll only be doing TCG until things slow down after Christmas and I get a new phone for recording and ideas for videos. Check it out and subscribe or something if you’re interested. Or ignore you just want to hear me talk that’s fine too.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfbyZDjAuNexdtfg9e3bgxA
Yo Gar haven’t seen you in a while, what gives
I’m avoiding spoilers. Also had finals last week and seasonal has started at work so I’m busy almost every day of the week
So apparently the first time you talk to your mother in the beginning she says to remember when you defeated the Indigo Plateau. So now we are like Ash? We abandon pokemon when we have to move…(well not exactly like Ash. We have defeated the Indigo Plateau).
I think that is a misunderstanding.
I think the mother actually talks to Kukui – we already know that he challenged the league in Kanto (that was revealed in several reviews for the 2 hour demo)
No, people said that she says this when you go down to the kitchen after you wake up in your room.
So I know I’d say I’d start tomorrow but I at least want to make a start even though it’s still open!
Vote for who you want to win Round 1, Battle 1 of the Written Monotype Tourney!
Ava (StarStorm), the Fabulous Fairy user, or Jeremy (SassyChespins), the Fearless Flying user!

HOW DOES ANYONE TAKE B2W2’S PLOT SERIOUSLY?? The more I play this game the more frustrated I become. I felt this way when I had a replay marathon a couple years ago but seriously. He wants to… freeze the world? Why? How are you ruling a world if everyone is a freaking Popsicle?
The Ice age will return and he’s pretty much insane at that point
tbh, BW2 strong point was its postgame, anything else i cannot recall (except those amazing gym battles)
Yeah really. B2W2 had a great post game, pretty good dex, great gym battles, (Up until Marlon at least)
The story is pathetic honestly after how good Black and White’s story was. It gave good context to your actions and really made you feel like a hero. The end had no battles in N’s Castle because the grunts understood it was you and N who had to fight. That is awesome. But now that Plasma has been watered down into a bowl of evil, there is nothing like that and it is a bunch of repetitive boring battles.
The plot that irritated me the most is your friend/rival in the game… but the worst thing about b2w2? The visor the male protag wore…ew.
LMAO TRUE
Right!? The ONLY thing that would have made that outfit worse would have been a fanny pack. Lol
I need to replay the gen 5 games cause it’s been awhile but I don’t have them anymore and they’re like 40$ each to buy used ?
What!? Really? That’s lame!
Yeah when I was in college I was poor so I got rid of all my old games and now I wish I didn’t :/ it’ll all be fine when I get Sun/Moon but still lol.
:/ Well, thankfully Sun and Moon is out soon. Im not playing any main series game until then! I don’t want to burn myself out lol
Let’s just pray the story is good this gen. I’ll die if they give us another XY
Ugh… Kalos was awful. I want a world of beauty… honey, your team is the worst dressed villain group to date… lol
Team flare gave me nightmares. Cause they were dressed so poorly. Like girl, no shade but do they own mirrors?
Mhm. Who told you butches that red on red/orange was okay? Girl, the only disaster on Kalos is your sense of style. *Four snaps*
SHIT GO OFF
And ps what’s with y’all names? No mama namin they baby BYRONY come on let’s be real here. And the lace fronts were bad choices.
Smh. They were the worst team to date. I want a poison ivy-esque team. Lol
Just sultry women seducing and poisoning everyone? I’m game
And eco-conservation. 😛
I liked the BW protags waaaay better than the sequels
FINALLY SOMEONE SPILLED THE TEA. NOT THE VISOR BUT THE MALE PROTAGONIST HAS EASILY THE WORST OUTFIT IN THE ENTIRE POKEMON HISTORY. HE WAS A MESS HEAD TO TOE,
I agree. Mhm Kalos is a close second(before customization.)
kalos was lame, plain and boring, but it wasnt ugly. let me just start with nate aka BW2 protagonist, first of all his hair? dandruff lives there, he does not even use shampoo probably, heck he just wakes up, takes a shower, gets his hair wet, grab his towel and pass through it hair three times, and say looks good! His vizor? oh lord have mercy. Who in the hell uses vizors these days. Boy you aint playing golf you catchin pokemon wtf. And what is going on with that wetsuit. Boy you dont know about underwear? And who the hell buys short sleeve jackets. Like what is the purpose of a short sleeve jacket. Looking cool? cause it aint a cool look for you. And them ugly wide basketball shorts that makes his leg looks like chicken legs. And those shoes? Those shoes started the “what are does movement”. Nate really needs to get it together
and dont let me start with the messenger bag
Does anyone else think that they’ll make BW3 instead of just remaking gen5?
If they can deliver a story on level with BW, then I’m all for it
I think they should but have the story be centered around the original dragon
Seriously how you only noticing this in B2W2. Every main series games since Gen 3, bar BW, are like this with their plots.
yeah but the fact that they had it so good with Black and White, it is such a punch in the face
True. Personally I don’t really mind B2W2 all that much. But I’m fascinated you have such strong feelings against it :p
I voted for Kyogre, though all 2 are amazing Pokemon Kyogre is very nostalgic for me. Sapphire was my first gen 3 game and it always stuck with me and it along with Team Aqua became my favorite villain team as well as one of my favorite legendaries
While I’m at it I’ll leave this here love this video! you decide :3
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNUH75XMeQI&feature=youtu.be
@StarStorm do you prefer Fomantis or Bounsweet?
…. i dont know
Um, I guess Bounsweet?
Ok I wanted that to be one of your Pokemon for the Fanfiction but I couldn’t decide so I thought ask you which one
Why dont you just ask us for a team?
Ehh cause… I actually don’t know why ok that’s a better idea what do you want for a team everyone?
Wishiwashi
Pa’u Oricorio
Lurantis
Vikavolt
Comfey
Alright I can work with that but not all will be owned immediately so which to start?
Grubbin since its the easiest to get I guess ^^
Ok will do I’m putting it in now
Star’s starter. Lol
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/4d9f60f0e1d21b3f6ee778f7a98c6af562d1b13bfef6c11abf8ff1fda27e0c8d.jpg
Awww it’s so cute!
Vulpix is so much cuter than Ninetales :3
Totally!
RIP Giant Chasm. Made significantly less cool and mysterious in B2W2
2010-2012
UHG, how dumb is it that N just gives you the freaking Dragon. he is just like “oh i know I’m the chosen hero but you can have it because we need to satisfy your power trip with a legendary
….
I don’t think I like these games very much
Lol I hope Sun and Moon has a great story
Really? I thought you loved BW2.
Who was I thinking of then? ._.
me
Oh ok lol
Ok people since Star gave me the idea what do you primarily want for a team in Sun & Moon Fanfiction?
Decidueye
Drampa
Luxray
Volcarona
Empoleon
Nidoking
Umm I good just I wanted no other starters there but Luxray Volcorona and Nidoking are fine
Decidueye
Drampa
Luxray
Volcarona
Silvally (Steel)
Lapras
Ok this much better to work with Thank you
Tsareena
Lopunny
Primarina
Furret
Altaria
Chandelure
Ok but which to start?
What do you mean?
What for a Starter?
Popplio I guess
Ok but only since I choose it as my starter it will be a Brionne is that ok?
Oksure
shoot didn’t really think about this.
Replace Chandelure with Gothitelle
Yessss!
I’m super confused, what’s all this fan fiction stuff about?
Ithsme, shield your eyes!
Why?
Because. Lol
People are just making fanfiction because there hyped
Mines is a battle between jungle members and Kurusu’s is a journey through Alola
Oh cool.
Interested to read lol
You can still join mine but sadly Rival spots are taken but you can be just about anything and if you want a Starter it must be second to begin with
Nah, I’m fine, but thanks.
Ok
Out of curiosity, do you want to participate at all? Even as a side line character like Fae or myself! 😀
I’m good, but thanks for offering!
I, on the other hand, am passing the time by waiting for Lockstin’s theory 3.8, casually playing X, and mostly crying off and on.
I’m making a Fanfiction about Sun & Moon
I, too, am writing one tbh. Lol
What’s yours about?
Myself within the pokemon world as a traveling writer and pokemon trainer.
Sounds interesting!
Plus, mine is going to be mature audiences only lol
Gay Pokémon erotica? lololol
Shush. Maybe. Lol
Though no beastiality/furries. *Shudders*
Today is national complain about B2W2 day I guess
Ghetsis is so much worse in these games. Also his fight is waaaayyy easier come on.
BW>BW2
In nearly every way.
The mandatory Studio participation is a pain in the butt. Other than that I love the games.
I just nicknamed my Skiddo “Baab”.
It’s stupid but I’m so proud of this. xD
The poll is closing in an hour!
https://goo.gl/pG9vAd
This poll is rigged, it says I voted Rayquaza but I didn’t vote on anything.
Same here, could’ve just been a quick click though
All the polls have been rigged.
All the Pauls are rigged
Alternatively
That’s apolling
Lock Pokéjungle up.
Well I think I’m just going to move onto Y version tomorrow. The end of B2W2 just took all the fun out of finishing it I don’t even want to do the E4. I may come back to it after I beat Y but I am just so frustrated with these games I don’t want to bother with Victory Road.
Star, don’t burn yourself out! 🙂
That’s a good point actually. I may wait a bit to do Y and just take a break. I don’t want to be in a bad mood before Sun and Moon.
Exactly! It would suck to burn yourself out before a new game. Lol
You don’t hold back do you?
In what way?
In complaining about something.
Seriously they’re not that bad and I think you’re overreacting. You’re allowed to have an opinion obviously but damn…
Sure I guess I am over reacting. They aren’t bad games but when you had such a well executed story like black and white then you make a sequel, it just is so sad and infuriating to see it fall on its face like this
What’s wrong with it?
oh my god
Ok so like, it starts out really good. I love Asperita City, I love the variety of pokemon early on, it has alot going for it. Then there is Hugh who rants about rescuing a purloin stolen from his sister, not even him, 5 YEARS AGO. He would be at most 11 then. But what ever right? Bianca is there and she has awesome character development over those 2 years and the same with Cheron. The game is great up until the 7th gym I’d say. Because after Drayden, there is a huge terrorist attack on Opelucid City, a major city in Unova filled with people and it is followed up with… battling Team Plasma grunts? So then you go to Humailu City and then you have to FIGHT THE GYM LEADER RIGHT AFTER?
Then Marlon is questioning if Team Plasma is evil because he is two years late and in the game where instead of being morally ambiguous they literally just froze an entire city full of civilians. Worst gym leader imo
Then you have to go on the frigate and do the button press thing to unlock the gate, what ever. Then you have to go BACK onto it and fight a bunch of them to get this key card and the code, fight Zinzollion 5 times while all of this is happening, fight Colress. Then you fight the shadow triad and a really anti-climactic ending to Hugh’s Purrloin sublot. Then the worst legendary encounter ever happens. (Until XY that is)
So the pacing has already been ruined by boring repetitive battles against grunts that just work fro Ghetsis so he can take over the world. A huge step down to the thought provoking N from BW. And I know he was kinda like this in BW but he was also opperating in the shadows and was interesting with his interactions and influence on N and seemed to just want power more than total domination.
N comes in on his Deus ex Machina dragon. (Who never appears before this moment and your player character has no idea who this is. Oh yeah also they shouldve just done the previous characters but thats a different rant) then you fight Black Kyurem without being able to catch it, I killed it with two non-stab focus blasts, then you fight a much easier Ghetsis. Then N clumsily trys to talk to his father which could’ve been a good moment if executed better then he just leaves and that’s it.
My main gripe with the games were just how painfully in your face everything was and it was full of plot devices, but the ending was still alright in my opinion. It’s the cheesiest game in the series, that’s for sure.
It really lacked any kind of central theme too. Black and White had truth and ideals and it really shined conveying that. No one side was right. Plasma’s message had some truth in it, but it was their ideals that made them take action. Unlike in Black and White 2 where Ghetsis wants to take over the world and grunts follow him just.. because?
Questioning if the things you do in the game are right is a great idea from a design stand point. I mean at this point pokemon has had 5 generations. Looking at what you are doing and if it is right is a fantastic idea and the player can still draw their own conclusion from that. Even if they ignore it and play anyways. I can go on for hours about how Black and White did so well.
BW2 are actually my favorite games in the series imo. I just love how it ties BW together with the memory link and actually made me feel like I was exploring a living place.
(I actually do like the story, even though BW was better)
Trying to stay positive today. Just found out something very depressing last night.
So name a pokemon you absolutely love from each gen, megas count separately!

It’s a date
Lol wut?
It was a joke.
Dont worry about it
*Whisperly* he’ll roofie you

That what they call it these days?
welcome to showdown!
Does anyone really honestly think Rayquaza won’t win?
Rayquaza will win, but Groudon is the best

Can’t complain Ghost/Dragon comes in close second.
But Dialga is a Steel Type and pure beast
I like edgy
So edgy
Giratina is so cool
fact
We’ll see about that
I don’t know… it’s like voting for a mechanical penis, four-legged sex toy or a ribbed for her pleasure Satan dragon.
Wow…and I thought Star had strong feelings.
But then again I don’t see a problem with any of those…
Not complaining about them, just explaining what they actually look like lol

Thank you for clarifying that
Not a fan of the Wisp badge. Doesn’t look very badge like
The rest look cool though
What’s not badge-like about it?
On the contrary, I really like the Wisp badge. I don’t understand how it doesn’t look badge-like.
This is amazing! I like the wispy one. Could I have go at ( badly) drawing a badge which you could add?
It’s for the Jungle League
I don’t know what that is. I meant more for fun?! It’s okay though.
Eight of us pokejunglers placed in a tournament that we held in order to create a Jungle League. These are the badges that we’ve designed.
Oh cool! That sounds amazing
It was really fun. And once we’re all organized, you and the other junglers can challenge us and win our badges!
Oh well yeah you can still make one for fun but we wont add it.
The Jungle League is just 8 users here who have become gym leaders through a tournament! These badges are being made right now for us
??????
I don’t think you asked for permission first to post, but It’s okay, just remember to ask next time. Ask on the Forums because I don’t go on Pokejungle til the 19th.
Ok But Poekoko I have to admit these are fantastical done I applaud you!
Thanks m8
So I have what I’ve written from the tourney fic thing, it’s all pre-battle stuff though.
Monotype Madness
Round 1, Battle I
Brave the Default! Flying/Fairy!
Jordan was bored, tapping his fingers against the railing and waiting for one of the combatants to appear on stage.
Thankfully, the Unovan Tournament Association-known affectionately as the UTA-had decided to hold the the event at Nimbasa’s Big Stadium, rather than Driftveil’s Pokémon World Tournament Arena. This made one important difference: seating! And it looks like the decision came in handy, seeing as one of the competitors was running particularly late.
“Will Jeremy from Sandgem please come onto the stage?” The announcer announced, annoyed. “Or else victory will be defaulted to Ava, of Ecruteak.”
As her name was mentioned, Jordan looked down at her. You wouldn’t be able to tell from looking at this young, raven-haired girl that she was one of the most renowned Fairy-Type trainers in the world, but as a Fairy fan Jordan knew wiser.
For someone who entered the tournament to win, it was immediately obvious that victory this way was not acceptable to her. Her green eyes were darting nervously, the girl scanning the whole of the arena for traces of her opponent from atop her podium. She was anxiously switching between throwing her Poké Ball up and down and fixing her beanie, the black mass slipping off her head from the amount of movement she was making.
“If Jeremy does not step on his podium within ten seconds, victory will be defaulted to Ava.”
At the declaration of a deadline, Ava stared at the announcer’s box as intensely as the Astral Body Pokémon on her tank top. It was obvious she was not going to take this default as an acceptable option.
“Ten, nine.” The announcer counted down. Ava apologised to her Pokémon within its ball and returned it to the belt above her skirt, the purple veil shifting at the slightest touch.
“Eight, seven.” The audience began to make a commotion as they looked towards the Warp Pad at the side of the field flaring up.
“Six, five?”
From the Pad burst Jeremy, his blue flannel shirt and black jeans and boots marred with cuts and what appeared to be Pidove feathers. Despite the atrocity of his attire, his poise and gait were quite calm as he simply stepped onto the podium closest to his entrance.
“And it looks like our friend from the land of mountains has finally appeared!”
Ava excitedly the her Poké Ball back into her hand and waved at her opponent, as he simply returned a wave and ruffled a few feathers out of the brown that adorned his head and chin.
I love it! You’re a talented writer for sure! I’m excited to see what happens! *roots for myself to win! Haha
Aww, thanks!
Still haven’t checked the final poll yet, but I’m away to start writing the battle soon!
omg I love it
I’m so excited for more! I need more!!
So I’ve been thinking about my Emerald team, and I think I got to something:
Sceptile
Slaking
Crawdaunt
Grumpig
Flygon
Absol/Torkoal
Thoughts?
Go Absol
I just remembered it, so I thought about it being an option. But alright I’ll go with it
My favorite emerald team was
Sceptile
Slaking
Salamence
Gardevoir
Tentacruel
Flygon
So I’m definitely a fan of your team
Nice, thanks!
Seeing all you guys who are so into writing and similar things as I am is getting me inspired! I used to be an avid writer but the lack of having any creative outlets or support hindered that but now I’m starting to think about ways to get back to it! So thanks to everyone here ?
Your absolutely welcome for all zero of my contributions! xD
Comments like this are contribution enough! Haha
Ithsme ftw!
I think I should make a little pokemon game for fun. I need some experience in making RPGs anyways so it would be cool
You’re still willing to battle?
Sure! Still OU or do you want to do a random battle?
Never mind lol (I just saw this)
Thanks for your time anyways 🙂
The Mighty Earthinator is growing bored
So lets get a ball rolling, i greatly want to establish a firm Weekendly Battle Royale Skirmish once Sun and Moon gets here
But (this goes for Battle Royale Meta as well) i fear that it will be dominated purely by Solid tanks who cannot be scratched or simply overpowered sweepers who one shot things, and once one trainer is completely out the battle ends right there
Rhyperior, king of Battle Royale.
Phat chance
One Surf or Energy Ball and i can kiss my craggy ass gewdbye
:/ Its a shame. How do you think Rhyperior would fare with an assualt vest?
it only makes a slight difference
and i’ve experimented with Specially Defensive in Sand it works….okish
Bummer. I never use rock types, because they just feel too weak. :/
they are
Last question for my Emerald run for the day, but I’m stuck on who to choose: Absol or Mightyena. Absol has superior stats, yet I love dogs, so Mightyena.
Absol!
You sure? I haven’t used either, so I’m hesitant
Absol!
Absol really helped me out in ORAS and Mighteyana cant really hold its own as well later in the game
Ok, I’ll go with that
Mightyena is great at first, but it quickly falls behind in the later parts of the game.
I used both and found that Mightyena was actually better imo then absol
How would you all feel if megas were heavily nerfed and made into form changes that dont disappear after battle? They would still have to be holding the stone and pokemon like rayquaza wouldn’t be able to do this, but I would personally love it. I want to be able to use Mega Absol and Lopunny in the same team

http://img13.deviantart.net/1b39/i/2014/231/4/b/mega_garchomp_by_ze_l-d71e1t1.jpg
As much as I love Mega Lopunny, I have to agree. I want to go back to the universe that doesn’t have Mega Evolution. :/
I wouldn’t mind if fourth evolutions were a thing and all megas were nerfed and now just evolutions.
I wish they were permanent. I’ve dreamed of fourth stage evolutions since like gen 2 lol
I want permant evolutions, which megas have stolen from me in my opinion.
And I resent them for that.
Alternatively these Pokémon were never going to get permanent Evolutions and GameFreak threw them a bone
Not entirely.
I’m not saying that they would’ve in gen 6 or anything, but because of megas, pokemon like Absol, Mawile, Houndoom, and others with potential for evolution can never evolve because of this. They’re being cut off IMO.
Absol and Houndoom, realistically, would’ve never evolved with those designs and stats
Some pokemon that received evos in gen 6 seemed complete as well, anything is, I mean was, possible.
I think you mean Gen 4 :p
But the thing is though all of them had room for improvement stat or design wise (arguably excluding Porygon2, but it’s based on computing stuff with upgrades and shiz so it makes sense) and even then they all preceed the Eviolite, which is probably a good factor in why we’ve barely seen any evos of past pokemon recently.
Depends, some mega forms are wonderful, some are just pure awful. The number of bad ones outweigh the number of good ones. Absol is one of the few good ones.
who wanna battle in showdown?
I forgot just how much I love Mega Absol
http://orig09.deviantart.net/09f4/f/2013/220/1/3/_mega_absol__by_purplepeepbits-d6h8ycn.jpg
But why isn’t it Dark/Fairy??
Because its not a fairy
i’ll tell you what i told that chick in line to the 20th Anniversary thing in new york
Absol is just some bad luck monster mixed in with a Bai Ze and has zero fairy like qualities whatsoever
And as she responds with “but it has a fairy face and wings” and i gloriously snapped “Its just its fur standing up, and will never be one because of it”
Yeah but that’s a dumb explanation. it should be fairy and have angel wings. It would be like the angel of death, Azreal
Yeah, he’s technically only Dark since that’s how people view its disaster detecting abilities as a scapegoat for their misfortune.
If anything it should be Dark/Electric because of the (static) energy that made its fur stand up like wings.

Wait i swear there’s only one Count Olaf to me

Also i remember stealing a copy of the GBA Game as a Kid and somehow managed to play it to the very end
I might just have to get Netflix for this, honestly.
If you do, make sure to watch Stranger Things as well
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIUnmZAHY3Q
Bojack Horseman’s pretty good as well, in a mature sense. Kind of a 20-30’s year old’s ideal show.
Is Rick and Morty on Netflix? if so then that too
omfg so good
its depressing and so emotional
such a good show
That’s on my list! I need to watch that and finish Scrubs and The Fosters as well.
love that show
Like a new new trailer?
More of a teaser but still. Footage!!

I think i’m naming my badge the Dream Badge. Even if you aren’t a gym leader, what would your type and badge be?
I showed you my concept, right?
Don’t think so!
The Duality badge! (Dark badge)
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e6d87f5ec71d51323eeaec6e1068d991b2f0f145ab5a4c724d903748d8335c99.jpg
Oh yeah I did see that! it looks awesome!
Well, I don’t know exactly what it would look like, but my badge would totally resemble a Togekiss and be called the hatchling badge.
Pokeoko made yours though
._.
That was the joke.
oh oops 😛
xD
My type would probably be Water (contrary to my icon XD) and the badge I would give out is the Trident Badge
Type: Fairy
Badge: Guardian* Badge
*Guardian angels, the four Guardian Pokémon, kinda thing it into Fairy-Types.
@StarStorm, what’s your Slurpuff’s gender?
Male
Thanks!
So is mine! His name is Sprinkles!
Thought I’d share a bit of the fic to kinda let you guys get a taste of what I’m getting at style wise:
Ava had now selected her Slurpuff to go onto the field, as the delightful Tart bounced into battle. He gleefully galloped over to where Samson was now landing, and booped him on the nose.
boop
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/09a93b91eb25388401a100b49419fcd233c9132e3f26eafb40cdf38a728a537a.gif
hey btw apparently we are both from the same place, with the same specialty type and now both have a pokemon from the swirlix line in the story so I told Dazzling that we could be like related or old friends or something, I could be your #1 stan cheering you on in the competition and stuff, but he told me to run it by you.
Im not a trainer just a dude watching from the sidelines throwing shade or something
Yay! My #1 stan!
https://media.giphy.com/media/2zof1WoWh59hm/giphy.gif
lol yeah thats fine! Maybe you could’ve given me the egg that hatched into my swirlix! Maybe some jealousy from it being shiny?
oh my gosh its shiny? I feel like I would be super happy about that though and probs want to study it being a researcher and all
Cute.
Who bopped who? Lol looking good!
Slurpuff booped Gliscor :p
At a ska concert tonight
Excellent!

No twinks! Beards! Chest hair! Daddies!
YESSS… Although I’m very sad about my man right now…
Your man as in your boyfriend?
Yeah… I believe he’s cheating on me.
Uh oh. I’m sorry to hear that. Why do you think that if you don’t mind me asking ..?
Well, he has a grindr, growlr, and other similar apps. We were out yeaterday and he was checking it and didn’t notice that I saw it. :*(
dump his ass
I’ll have to talk to him tomorrow.
ok but you deserve someone who gives you attention and isnt out seeking it on those trashy apps from others, so I would dump his ass, esp if you’ve been together for a while
About 4 months now. :/
long enough, I had a guy that was like that, he truthfully wasn’t invested in the relationship at all and literally just up and left without a word… and then tried to get back in my life but I don’t play those games
Yeah, I understand that. I hate relationship games as well. I’m just going to use this depression to further my writing process.
fair enough I’m still doing that, it gives great inspiration for writing about raw emotions
Indeed I can finish the race I’ve been working on all week.
Awe have you guys talked about deleting apps? Does he know the type of relationship y’all have? When me and my bf started dating we both deleted our apps
We “both” deleted them. Im not the type to invade other’s privacy so I believed him. Then he said he had it still for the promotional club/bar shouts… But definitely not the case.
Sounds shady tbh. I’d ask him about it. Unless you both agree on it apps are like non negotiable in a relationship that isn’t open. Idk. I’m sorry boo :/ do you guys live together? How long you been with him? *sorry for prying
4 months going on 5. We don’t yet, but we’ve discussed it.
Well this is a good time to think about it. Secret Grindr is a red flag!
I know… sigh, Im too nice. That’s my problem.
I definitely feel ya on that one. I myself hate confrontation lol
Same, my social anxiety doesn’t help either.
Why it so hard to find loyal gays?
I don’t know. 🙁 I’ve been trying to not think about it today since I started a new job and the worst part was my social anxiety was peaked. It’s been a bad day for me.
Job*
I’m sorry :/ I’ve never experienced that so idk how you feel but know you have internet friends and such! It’s hard enough being gay but damn sometimes we don’t make it easier on each other. But I’m here for venting if it’s any consolation!
I just want to spam Beyonce memes with her shouting “I’ll show you crazy!”
“Who the FUCK do you think I am?!?”
I just want to cry, but I can’t. 🙁
Awe boo it’s okay to cry! Sometimes it’s healthy. But I know it’s hard and I’m not in your situation. Wish I could help! Sending hugs!
I wish I had a punching bag. They are amazing for stress release.
That’s so masc! Haha jk and I bet your incineroar would wrestle with you to relive stress as well!
Lol I like Incineroar because we have a similar personality. In real life, It looks like I’m stone cold and a jerk, but I’m a pushover and excited.
Haha I don’t get the Incineroar hate. I honestly think these are some of the best starters. I can’t make up my mind. I keep going back and forth because I think they’re all genuinely so good! Ugh
I feel the same exact way. I love them all so much! 😀
Like when they were first revealed I was team rowlet. Then I was popplio then when the mid stages were revealed I was litten. Then back to popplio but after the final stages I was rowlet again lol. Idk
I was Popplio, than litten… I was never team Rowlet though. But, I love it still.
Yeah I really only like Decidueye. I lowkey hate Dartrix. Torracat is probably my favorite mid stage starter ever. I probably won’t decide officially until I’m at that stage when Hau gives me the choice lol
thats called resting bitch face honey, don’t worry I have it too…
You’re precious, though.
Naw im a straight up bitch its all good though, keeps the crazies away
I’d hug dat.
Like this lol

If I was in his world… he’d have to worry about my brock-antics.
I’d pray he was on PokeGrindr
Nah, he’d never get a date with his silence lol
Ska is good.
The Skatalites, Madness, The Specials and all that.
Seeing Reel Big Fish tonight
I’ve heard of them, but only because they did the theme song to the English dub of Rave Master (or Groove Adventure Rave as its original name was).
The genre is just so funny. It’s the ultimate in corny white people music
Ska originates from Jamaica though.
Well it’s a hodge podge of genres. But one of the largest influences being punk.
Eh, I dunno. I don’t really stick to genres, I just have music I like and music I don’t like.
That said a lot of the ones I like are aparently classed as new wave. Pretty much the only reasons I know anything about ska are Madness and a TV series called Death In Paradise that uses a lot of ska in the backing track.
And the more reggae influenced stuff was more of an era of ska than a staple of the genre.
So I just caught a female Slakoth in Emerald and I have not the slightest idea what to name it. Does anyone have an idea for a nickname I should give it?
Lesley
(very very very sounds loosely like Lazy)
nvm do this
K ?
Ssstaaccyy
but you pronounce it really slow
Lola
Lolling around.
I might go with this actually
I met in her a club down in old Soho where the champagne tastes like Cherry Cola.. oOo Ooo Lola. L-O-L-A.
Lol
Hannah because it’s a hanger.

Anyone else have a really bad memory/attention span? Literally have to keep these all open to get even small details

I once forgot my own name for 2 hours
Cher. Your name is Cher.
Would you cher with me why?
I could find a way to take back those words that hurt you and say “If I could reach the stars, I’d give them all to you”
my mom is obsessed with cher, and I freaking kid you not she just started playing one of her songs in the other room, wtf
It’s my gay guilty pleasure. Lol

I have over 200 tabs open on Firefox.
You digust me.
For using Firefox or for never closing tabs?
The tabs thing.
If you haven’t got at least 100 open you’re not internetting properly.
I have 2.
I never have more than 5, I can’t keep track of all of them well.
Plus if I was keeping them open to just use them later, then I’d just bookmark it. 😛
I have too many bookmarks already.
I don’t think any of the Firefox instances I’ve got open have less than about 6 or 7 tabs.
I can still keep track of everything though, I have very good semantic and episodic memory.
I envy you on that, I can’t even remember what I’m doing in more than 5 tabs. xD
The more you use it, the better it gets.
My memory wasn’t very good until I took up programming. Having to remember all the namespaces, class names, member functions, syntax rules, semantic rules etc pretty much forced my memory to get better.
I still suck at putting names to faces though.
It stresses me out to have more than three tabs open. When I do research papers for school I sometimes have more than 12 tabs open at a given time and it triggers my anxiety.
same
You just need more practise.
The more you do it, the more you get used to it and the more you’re able to flit from one tab to another.
That said, doing academic work probably doesn’t require that many tabs open, depending on what you’re actually doing. The only times I had high numbers open when doing coursework was in 3D modelling when I had various reference images and tips/tutorials open and in hardware where I had the specs of various different systems all open at once. Having the different systems open ahead of time meant I didn’t have to remember what I had and hadn’t looked at yet, because anything I was done with was closed and anything I hadn’t done yet was open.
Side thing I just remember: my programming teacher has literally hundreds of windows of a text editor program open on his desktop. It’s stressful to look at for me, I would NEVER do something like that. xD
Your teacher is doing programming right. Though most good text editors have tabs these days. Notepad++ and (I think) Sublime and the like.
Especially when you typically have one file per class (or if you’re doing Java, which forces you to have one file per class).
How would you be able to find the right program if you have 100 similar looking windows open? :/
By naming your programs and classes properly. Picking good names for things is crucial in programming, and many people believe it to be the hardest thing about programming.
That and seeing the differences in the code. A class for a vector looks very different from a class for a matrix. The number of fields and constructors etc are good indicators of a class’ intention.
I have a bad memory time to time
Sometimes I gotta bring myself back to speed…. Also who the hell are you
Alright so I decided to nickname it Lola (thanks to Serenotic) and I’m checking it’s stats right now.
Turns out it has Lonely nature. Now Lonely nature boosts it’s Attack but lowers the Defense. So once it evolves into a Slaking (with that insane Attack), teach it Hyper Beam, and add a Silk Scarf (like chuggaconroy)…

Lol. Seriously thanks for the chuggaconroy tip, this thing is gonna destroy everything

Why don’t I own a scarf? Scarfs are super cute. Its getting cold. Why dont I have a scarf?
I have one but I rarely use it.
The only kind of weather that bothers me is bright sunlight, I’d happily stand in the rain or cold in just a shirt (providing I had gloves).
I found artwork of Decidueye’s true form.
http://paulrobertson.mechafetus.com/at/cosmicowl_attack.gif
“Artwork”
Gifs are art too.
The way you phrased it made it sound like the intention was to share some secret concept art. Although a joke, it just bugged a little lol.
Where would I get that from, my dad that works at Nintendo? 😛
It’s just a joke and a way to remind people that ghost owls are a thing.
It’s glorious
I realized earlier today that Crabralwer 2 looks a LOT like Surskit. Just do a quick comparison. xD
Good night, all. I’ve got a few gallons of chocolate Ice cream and musicals queued(Rocky Horror, Repo!, Devil’s Carnival, and Tank Girl(Not a musical, but epic)). Lol Gonna be crying like an anime fan on prom. XD Silly Mighty no. 9.
Chin up, everything will work out in the end eventually, and I wish you all the best
Thanks! 😀
Your idea of a night in is drastically different to mine.
I’m just facing some depression. Goth operas help me out. Rocky makes me sing-a-long. Tank girl just makes me laugh.
It is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all.
Probably. Maybe. I dunno, I’m not qualified to give relationship advice.
I don’t take advice from the dead Pharap. They tend to like to play with mortal souls. Lol 😛

Haha! I haven’t heard that song in a year or two.
But, in this moment it hurts. That phrase may be truth, but sadly it doesn’t dull the pain. Thanks, though!
I don’t know whether I agree with it or not. When my girlfriends dumped me back along (in both cases because they’d found someone better) I regretted ever going out with them. Now though I bear them no ill will and hope they’re doing well.
(But then again I wasn’t with them for that long and I’m pretty much used to being alone. I dunno, I’m a crazy skeleton, don’t listen to me.)
Sorry about everything that’s happening! I hope it all turns out right!
Listen to Reel Big Fish and laugh at more for paying to see them.
Just thought of something: if the missing images in the datamine were, against all odds, totem pokemon, why would they have shiny variants? We can’t catch them (which is already a factor against the idea that they are indeed totems), so it seems stupid to include a shiny variant.
I thought the rebellion of the leaks died in you?
Keep fighting that good fight
It’s a tough call.
On one hand, I still do think that the evidence is there, and it’s entirely possible (and likely) than the leaks are incomplete.
On the other hand, I’ve unadmittedly (until now) come to accept these as the full pokedex so I’m not dissapointed in the unlikely case that it is.
To stop the game crashing if someone tries to hack them in probably.
– Game reads ‘shiny totem Gumshoos’
– Game looks for shiny totem Gumshoos model.
– Model not found
– Crash
I don’t get why they’d care that somebody tried to hack them in, it’s their own fault. 😛
I dunno, maybe they’re worried if they upset the people who try to hack the game then the hackers will get angry and DDOS them or something.
Plus it’s probably easier than some of the alternatives, and the less crash conditions there are the less likely it is that random factors like memory corruption will crash the game.
I searched DDOS and am still confused, sorry! Can you explain that for me a little?
DDOS: Distrubuted Denial Of Service attack.
It’s a technique used to clog up network resources on public servers, which can bring the servers to a crawl and eventually cause them to be effectively non-functional, causing the owner to have to take them offline until the attacks stop.
So if someone (or more likely a group of people) decided to DDOS the servers that the Nintendo e-shop runs on, the e-shop would have to be taken offline for a few days.
You’re really in denial. I would love it if there were more Pokemon to be found, but I’d say that there being more new Pokemon is more so against the odds than the blank spots being Totem. Once again if the blank spots are new Pokemon/Alolan forms then why are there blank spots between Raticate and Fearow? There aren’t any Pokemon between them so it wouldn’t make any sense…….sorry, but that alone is a strike for the hidden Pokemon theory…..That said keep fighting my friend! lol
I don’t like to think that this is all denial, but honestly it probably is.
However, like I’ve said, there’s enough evidence that piles up and makes me believe we have a good shot.
Knowing that we’ll find out within weeks (if not just a week) is exciting to say the least.
Can’t wait to tell you all “I TOLD YOU SO!!!”, because at that point I don’t think anyone would care that they were wrong.
I honestly hope you are right lol I will agree there is some weird stuff going on, but I’m just not sure if it adds up to meaning anything. Again tho I would love it if you were right. Even if you were only partially right lol
you’re not alone on this train, I’ve been waiting for more since the dex leaked because of too many inconsistencies and some very convient things, but I do think the black spots are totems
You lost me on that last part. Very convenient things?
I accidentally hit post before I was done.
But yeah, like all pokemon were supposedly replaced with pikachu and like all this data was scrubbed and they took so much time to do it… but somehow left in all the pokemon? Im not buying it, they are not that stupid
Pharap said something about how two 128 bit keys on the full game shows their extensive knowledge on security.
(I might be wrong, sorry :P)
was that sarcasm or was he genuine?
I think he was being serious (at least it sounded like it).
He knows a lot more about all of this kind of stuff than I do, so I’m just taking his word for it when he says that that’s difficult.
Watch Totem pokemon actually being a posibility to be shiny lol
Ugh I keep going back and forth as to who my starter will be. I think they’re all so good! I guess you could call me Wishiwashi. . . heh
do eine meini minei mo, and if you get one and you’re disappointed then choose another one, sometimes we know but don’t like really know
Is that really how it’s spelled? Hmm, learn something new every day.
no, I’m terrible at spelling so idk
Learn nothing new everyday I guess.
Honestly that’s what I’m prob gonna do. I am having to wait maybe a day before I can play them so I might see if there stats have been mined and go off that lol
Am I absolute trash for selling my Xerneas/Yveltal 3DSXL in order to buy the Solgaleo/Lunala New 3DSXL? I’m hyped for these games!!!
I take it you don’t want to do a system transfer?
If you sell the console before buying the new one you can’t do a system transfer (I think).
On the one hand yes because they’ll probably be worth a lot more in the future, on the other hand Solgaleo and Lunala are cooler than Xerneas and Yveltal.
Oh no I have 2 3DS’s. My Xerneas/Yveltal has nothing on it since I did a system transfer onto my red New 3DS. (Had to take advantage of that 3D tracking haha). So once I get the Solgaleo/Lunala one I’ll have to do a system transfer from my red one.
Fair enough, but be warned you can only system transfer about 5 times in total for some daft reason.
I still think it would be worth more if you hung onto it for a few years, but it’s your choice.
So I’m absolutely knackered, and thus going to bed. Might as well show you guys how far I’ve progressed with it, but also gonna ask if anyone knows a good place I can store these when I start writing more
Monotype Madness
Round 1, Battle I
Brave the Default! Flying/Fairy!
Jordan was bored, tapping his fingers against the railing and waiting for one of the combatants to appear on stage.
Thankfully, the Unovan Tournament Association-known affectionately as the UTA-had decided to hold the the event at Nimbasa’s Big Stadium, rather than Driftveil’s Pokémon World Tournament Arena. This made one important difference: seating! And it looks like the decision came in handy, seeing as one of the competitors was running particularly late.
“Will Jeremy from Sandgem please come onto the stage?” The announcer announced, annoyed. “Or else victory will be defaulted to Ava, of Ecruteak.”
As her name was mentioned, Jordan looked down at her. You wouldn’t be able to tell from looking at this young, raven-haired girl that she was one of the most renowned Fairy-Type trainers in the world, but as a Fairy fan Jordan knew wiser.
For someone who entered the tournament to win, it was immediately obvious that victory this way was not acceptable to her. Her green eyes were darting nervously, the girl scanning the whole of the arena for traces of her opponent from atop her podium. She was anxiously switching between throwing her Poké Ball up and down and fixing her beanie, the black mass slipping off her head from the amount of movement she was making.
“If Jeremy does not step on his podium within ten seconds, victory will be defaulted to Ava.”
At the declaration of a deadline, Ava stared at the announcer’s box as intensely as the Astral Body Pokémon on her tank top. It was obvious she was not going to take this default as an acceptable option.
“Ten, nine.” The announcer counted down. Ava apologised to her Pokémon within its ball and returned it to the belt above her skirt, the purple veil shifting at the slightest touch.
“Eight, seven.” The audience began to make a commotion as they looked towards the Warp Pad at the side of the field flaring up.
“Six, five?”
From the Pad burst Jeremy, his blue flannel shirt and black jeans and boots marred with cuts and what appeared to be Pidove feathers. Despite the atrocity of his attire, his poise and gait were quite calm as he simply stepped onto the podium closest to his entrance.
“And it looks like our friend from the land of mountains has finally appeared!”
Ava excitedly the her Poké Ball back into her hand and waved at her opponent, as he simply returned a wave and ruffled a few feathers out of the brown hair that adorned his head and chin. He then grabbed one of his own Poké Balls and gave the announcer a nod.
“Field up!” The announcer yelled, before the field between Ava and Jeremy split and revealed a chasm-riddled fairytale forest. It was like something out of a Grimm story, the trees compact and offering shelter to a mass of mushrooms which formed several circles, yet scarred with deep drops into oblivion which kicked up drafts.
The Observation Tablets each member of the audience has received flared to life, showcasing several cameras littered throughout the battlefield. Most of these were not gifted to the competitors, besides the body camera that had been installed on every one of their Pokémon. These were displayed via eye pieces given to the trainers.
“Three, two, one! Begin!”
At once, both Ava and Jeremy threw Poké Balls onto the field, revealing Lilo the Mimikyu and Clever the Staraptor.
“Get to the forest, Lilo!” Star shouted. Lilo didn’t need to think twice. Her timid demeanor and Clever’s Intimidating presence sending her into a skittering escape.
It was quite impressive, Jordan thought. He never saw a Mimikyu go so fast, and this was a boy born and raised in Alola. The Disguise Pokémon actually attempted to vault over the canyon separating it from the most dense patch of forest, but Jeremy was having none of it. As the Fairy ‘flew’, Clever circled above her until her trainer simply pointed down, at which point she dove down with her wings surrounded in an aura as solid as steel.
“Protect!”
The Mimkyu’s body projected a purple barrier as the Staraptor smashed into it. Even with a barrier, the force of the attack was apparent as it shattered the Protect into a billion pieces. It did, however, get Lilo to the place she wanted, even if she was launched there rather than being there on her own accord.
She was sent flying into a thicket of forest, and as Jordan could now tell from his observation tablet, was hanging from a branch within the forest due to the north in her stick tail. Ava could apparently tell this too, although it would be a bitty obvious since the body cam was upside down.
“Return, Staraptor!” Yelled Jeremy.
Jordan was confused. Why would Jeremy use Return on a Ghost Type? Although it did make a bit more sense when instead of diving after the Mimikyu the Staraptor returned to his Poké Ball. However, Jordan was still confused. It must’ve been obvious too, as the man beside him turned to him and offered an explanation.
“The dense forest isn’t any good for Staraptor, it can’t fly in there.” He explained whilst simultaneously trying to stop his Swirlix from eating his beard.
“Oh. Thanks!” Jordan said, thankful for the favour. Both then turned to their screens just in time to witness Jeremy’s Gliscor swoop directly at Lilo in an Acrobatic maneuver.
“Protect!” Ava shouted again, as another barrier bounced into existence. This one failed notably quicker though, lasting just long enough to block any damage from Acrobatics would’ve caused.
“Damn it!” Exclaimed Jeremy. However, his attitude changed as soon as his Gliscor glowed a violent shade of purple as the Orb dangling around his neck changed in colour from an toxic tyrian to a more putrid purple before both Pokémon and item faded back to their original colour.
Ava was visibly annoyed with this, as if she’d had experience with the art of a persisting Poison Heal Pokémon. She didn’t look particularly defeated, either. By now, Lilo was at the edge of the chasm separating her from her trainer, but she still had a clear shot at the Gliscor emerging from the thicket.
“Curse and come back!” She commanded, and the Mimikyu seemed relieved that it could retreat.
But not before it had summoned a spectral nail and had driven it inside itself, causing it to cry in pain whilst also carrying a hint of laughter. Jordan always thought Curse was an ugly move, but it didn’t really seem to strike him as much as it did now as the Gliscor began writhing in pain.
Jeremy was lifted Gliscor’s Poké Ball as the Fang Scorpion Pokémon caught a draft and rose back above the treeline. However, it looked back at him and shaked his head.
“Samson!” He began, before his Pokémon burst into purple light, with a renewed vigour as the light faded. “Fine, just don’t get too cocky.”
Ava had now selected her Slurpuff to go onto the field, as the delightful Tart bounced into battle. He gleefully galloped over to where Samson was now landing, and booped him on the nose.
Following that benign boop, there was a silence. Ava and Jeremy may not of been able to see each other through the thicket, but they could obviously tell the tension existed and was waiting for the other to make their move.
“Swords Dance, Samson!”
“Belly Drum, Tart!”
Both Pokémon boosted their attack stats, with blades dancing over Samson’s head and Tart banging against his belly as he happily indulged in his Sitrus Berry.
“Play Rough!” Ava belted out, as Tart grabbed hold of Samson’s tail and started comically combating it until a cloud of dust arose. The pain Samson was enduring was amplified by the appearance of a spectral nail, but somewhat relieved with a purple glow.
“Samson, Acrobatics!” Jeremy yelled, becoming increasingly invigorated.
Samson pushed both himself and Tart into a chasm in order to pick up a draft, with the Slurpuff hanging on for dear life. He then flung Tart up and at a shocking speed and rammed itself into him multiple times.
“Tart, use Return!”
Hearing his trainer’s voice, Tart concentrated on his bond with her and utilised their trust to summon an unbelievable force of power… That never even hit, as the Gliscor smacked back into the Fairy-Type and coiled its tail around it, and heard his trainer command “Earthquake!”
The two Pokémon began plummeting to the Ground, dead into the centre of the thickest foliage on the field. As they plummeted, the Gliscor then summoned a barrier around itself, which stuck close to the Gliscor’s upper body, with its tail sticking out of it.
They broke through the canopy, and then into the ground. Jordan looked to his tablet, but it was already obvious what happened. The audience had a mixed reaction as Ava retrieved Tart into his Poké Ball, ranging from the man next to him patting his Swirlix’s head to a guy on the other side of the arena hollering in happiness (something about Ground-Types beating up Fairies). Jordan looked at his own Poké Ball as Ava looked at her two remaining options, which caught the attention of the Swirlix Guy.
“Why don’t you let your Pokémon out to see the fight?” He asked. “Too big? Too small?”
“More like I’m too cheap.” Jordan frowned. He’d barely afforded the ticket to Unova and the tourney ticket, as well as accommodation and eating. He wasn’t able to buy a seat for his partner, who was a huge fan of Ava’s. Jordan felt quite guilty he was getting to see the match and she wasn’t.
The man beside him frowned, and then returned to the action. Jordan felt bad, he didn’t mean to get the man down along with him. He’d have to leave an apology until after the match though, as Gliscor writhing in pain seemed to snap Ava out of her selecting stupor as she got Lilo back onto the field.
“Samson, Return now!” Yelled Jeremy, concerned for his Pokémon. His partner again refused, and began crawling over to the Mimikyu who was frolicking over to the forested area.
Ava didn’t look happy about what she was going to do, but she knew she’d have to do it. “Moonblast!”
Lilo grabbed a hold of Gliscor as lithe limbs shot out from under its disguise and grabbed it. The Mimikyu then looked up to the moon, still just a relatively small white dot in the blue morning sky, but still just as powerful enough to fuel Lilo’s burst of pink energy, which emerged from her body and exploded into the surrounding area, fast enough that Jeremy couldn’t even think to command a Protect.
Safe to say, Samson’s pride was his downfall. Jeremy gave a resigned smile to the Poké Ball, before weighing his two remaining options.
“Both sides are down a Pokémon, but Adams Mimikyu is at half health.” Jordan pondered ‘aloud’, in reality hoping the man beside him would understand his attempt to rekindle a conversation.
“I know Ava. If anyone can pull it off, she can.” He replied, seemingly a bit happier knowing that the trainer next to him wasn’t a complete downer.
“I hope so…” Jordan trailed off, his Poké Ball still in hand. He returned it to his bag and nervously adjusted the five rings on his left hand.
By the time Jordan looked back at his screen, Mimikyu was freaking out a Salamence had just hosed it with a Hydro Pump and had dampened its Disguise.
“Good, Zephyr, we can get in a hit now! Hydro Pump again!”
“Get to cover and retaliate with Shadow Ball!”
The Salamence spewed forth a persistent pump of water, but its fair foe dived behind a tree and launched a few shadowy shots at Salamence, one of which managed to connect.
Jeremy’s hazel eyes were analysing the battlefield for any possible openings, seeing as the remainder of the match with the trees in the way was likely to be a game of pikaboo. Or if there was some way to get Salamence into cover to protect it from Mimikyu’s attacks. Fight fire with fire.
Fire. That was it!
“Flamethrower, Zephyr!” He excitedly exclaimed
If you don’t want to just store them on your SD card/Hard drive/whatever, you could get a pastebin account and stick them on pastebin (http://pastebin.com/ ). Or Deviantart, but that would force you to keep them public.
It’s mostly for making them easily accessible to interested jungle members when I publish them, but this will probably really come in handy when I write more! Thanks Pharap
So apparently you’re an Overwatch character, thankfully I fixed it
I was Pharap before they made the Overwatch character with a similar name ; n ;
In fact next year I’ll have been Pharap for a whole decade.
#oldmanpharap :p
Make my lawn great again
<- So old I'm a skeleton.
Then yeah, go pastebin, you can make pastes public or unlisted. Public means anyone can find them, unlisted means normally only you can access them via your account, but other people can see them if you give them the right URL.
This is really good! You wrote it very well and I was really able to imagine the battle taking place. I love this!!
Thank you!

You very clearly have a great amount of talent when it comes to writing and I do hope you never stop writing. Honestly this story is so great! I loved every second of it and cant wait for more (great capture of earthen btw) and I am actually so honoured to be a part of it :3
The only thing I would say is to run it through a checker when you do finally complete it, I think a few names got auto corrected. But thats so minor compared to this amazing piece of writing you have here
I call it getting autocorekt :p
Thanks though!
This was sooo good! Honestly reading it as if I was there! That’s kind of how I would battle too! And the details you add or ones I wouldn’t think about but are so important! A++++++
Thank you!
Wow You’re quite the writer, this was amazing!
Thanks!
Everything in your writing is so good !! Every single detail allow us to paint the scene in our mind so clearly ! The action is never predictable which is the biggest strength of your text, and the audience’s point of view brings a deep “perspective” to the whole universe.
Thanks!
I think things are begining to die.

Anyone else notice that Wally caught Ralts in a Pokeball, but in the battle tree his Gallade is in an Ultra Ball?
Conspiracy time!
Mentioned that awhile back.
The theory is that after losing to Ruby/Sapphire, Wally became strength obsessed and got crazy about IVs and EVs, so he caught and bred a new one.
Probably one of those days I wasn’t here.
Sounds like pretty much every trainer in competative ever.
IV breeding is basically Pokemon Eugenics XD
We’ve taken Wally down with us! xD
Theory time: Garchomp will have a new mega for Sinnoh remakes

Another easy one, as Rayquaza comes on top for me. Its denliner mega evo look also helps greatly.
Deers, I feel kinda bored, I wanted to offer a small quiz to pass the time.

Bonus Question (can void one wrong answer if correct) : What is Deerlia’s Favorite pun?
1) ORAS
2) I don’t understand sorry
3) Never played xD
4) Never played either D:
5) Shiny Charm, no clue
6) Squirtle I think
7) Platinum
8) No clue
9) Never played 😛
10) 50/50 chance, I’ll go with True, even tho again, I never played xD
Ohhh I think I understand number 2 now. Multitype and RKS Sytem.
Well it was a good try, but since the answers are incomplete, i cannot really credit you for this, sorry…
But thanks for trying, you did pretty good for what you knew, let’s see if anyone knows here the whole list.
No worries! I only answered for fun! 🙂 I like trivia xD
Me too, but i don’t make it easy, i am a quiz master after all in this category~
Pokemon Coliseum
Multi Type AKS System
Pikachu
Latios and Latias
Shiny Charm 300%
Squirtle
Platinum Berlitz
Muneaki Ozawa & Norio Matsumura
Four
Yes
Oh Deer
You sir, are quite the pokemon genius~
You even got the Bonus right, which is good because you got one question definitively wrong… Pokemon Coliseum is not a main series game, it is a spinoff.
“Muneaki Ozawa & Norio Matsumura” was more detailed than i could ever expect, but dang, you got it good, i will accept this.
You just won yourself a Genesect for 9 correct answers plus the correct bonus~
Thanks for playing everyone, i will be posting the official Answers soon, along with accepted answers from this case.
Is #1 XY or ORAS? I forgot about the roller blades, but it’s the complete term used that made me think ORAS.
https://youtu.be/tcGQpjCztgA
Btw, if i don’t have your friend code, care to provide for your prize?
Technically Dawn’s name in the “Diamond and Pearl Manga”, Platinum Berlitz wasn’t in the Pocket Monsters Diamond And Pearl manga, she was in the Diamond & Pearl chapter of the Pokemon Adventures manga.
10. True and i got triggered because I remember how many times the attack failed after I saw the animation
1: None of them. Not even Sun & Moon offers complete 360 degree movement, there are certain angles the player character cannot face.
2: Multitype and RKS System
3: Pikachu
4: Raikou
5: Shiny Charm, 300%
6: Squirtle
7: In the original Japanese version it’s Hikari, in the translated version it’s still Dawn.
8: Ambrella
9: Four
10: True
Bonus: Deer puns? I’m not a fawn of them.
You were in a pretty good ballpark here, just a few points off… but thanks so much for trying, i hope you can see specifically what you got wrong and maybe try a new perspective, but excellent try~
You forgot Celebi man
1. XY (I feel like this one is sorta vague)
2. multi type, RKS system
3. pikachu
4. Raikou
5. Shiny charm, no idea
6. squirtle
7. Platinum
8. No idea
9. 3
10. True
Just playing for fun obviously, otherwise I wouldn’t have blanks.
Sorry, you were sooo close, you did a fine job though, just remember, a guess is better than no answer.
Thanks for playing~
It was fun, I hope there are more of these sometime! 🙂
Answers:
1. Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire
2. RKS System and MultiType
3. Pikachu
4. Latias or Latios is acceptable
5. Shiny Charm, 300%
6. Squirtle
7. Lady Platinum Berlitz
8. Ambrella (The official developer names were given by the winner and were accepted.)
9. 4
10. True
Bonus: “Oh deer!”
Do the roller skates not count? O_o
For #1.
Complete.
I don’t understand.
Roller skates were pretty janky, and weren’t normal 360 controls. It was more like the bike. ORAS had full 360 control for the circle pad with no gimmicks.
You can use Roller Skates and the bike to move 360 in XY. But running normally is restricted still. In ORAS, it’s all 360, but directional is optional. (excluding inside buildings of course, in which case Sun and Moon would be the first)
I would accept X/Y, but right from the get go you can walk 360 in OR/AS, no item needed, and it’s not restricted movement like the skates.
IMO it is full movement regardless of the item, but you said either one, so that’s good lol
I interpreted complete as in every option available is 360.
Like I said before. Platinum Berlitz was in the Diamond and Pearl chapter of the Pokemon Adventures manga, not the Poket Monsters Diamond & Pearl Manga, question #7 was too imprecise.
Eh, ya can’t please everyone, but i did pretty well for the rest i know.
I know some what
1. ???
2. RKS system Multitype
3. Pikachu and I’m pretty sure Munchlax is in HGSS
4.Latias/Latios or if we are talking about interaction with them then Celebi
5. Shiny Charm
6. Squirtle
7. Pokémon adventures lost my interest after Emerald and HGSS so I know it’s Pearl
8.???
9.???
10. True
I’m always gonna love Groudon the most, but man Kyogre’s been tugging on my heartstrings lately. Especially after the Generations episode centered around it. So cool seeing it whoop ass like that.
Alright, so quick question:
If you were fighting all 8 Ultra Beasts by yourself, and you had to use all of the Pokemon Teams you used each generation (Including a team you might use in Alola), what would all 42 of your Pokemon be to fight the Ultra Beasts? (You can use 2 mega Pokemon because of the Mega Ring and Bracelet)
This would be all 42 of my Pokemon:
– Charizard
– Vileplume
– Pidgeot
– Nidoking
– Starmie
– Jolteon
– Typhlosion
– Crobat
– Ampharos
– Heracross (Mega)
– Tentacruel

– Sceptile (Mega)
– Slaking
– Flygon
– Absol
– Crawdaunt
– Grumpig
– Infernape
– Staraptor
– Luxray
– Garchomp
– Gastrodon
– Roserade
– Samurott
– Stoutland
– Braviary
– Zebstrika

– Heliolisk
– Talonflame
– Lucario
– Decidueye
– Kommo-O
– Vikavolt
– Pyukumuku
– Alolan Marowak
– Lycanroc (Midday Form)
Sorry, I’m WAY too lazy. xD
It’s ok lol. Honetly, I didn’t think many people are going to answer it anyway XD
Complete Zygarde is all that is necessary.
I could swallow the Zygarde Core and integrate the cells into my body and fight them myself
Or it just forms inside my throat and stomach and bursts out violently destroying my torso and everything attached
The latter is more probable.
I’d just punch them all.
Bare fists?
No, bear fists!
http://i.imgur.com/N57TQ.png
Seriously though, yes.
XD
That’s an alternative
don’t think that’s gonna work well for tapu koko
RIP Tapu Koko
RIP all the Kokos tbh
No, he’s gonna win lol
He’s gonna get blown back.
no way he’s winning against that love bug and swolequito
I prefer to call it Muscquito. xD
that’s a lot more clever than my name honestly

I can’t wait for Sun and Moon. I’ve got it preloaded already, and hoo boy does it feel like I’m being taunted. Less than two weeks at least!
I can’t wait for the midnight release! ^.^
And in a certain way, I’m sort of excited about leaks too.
It won’t be long now.
I’m personally avoiding any story leaks, but I’m definitely trying to get some names for the unrevealed Pokemon! I’m surprised the game hasn’t started leaking already. It feels like XY were already leaking around this time. Very exciting times ahead!!
I’m kinda pissed about it knowing I asked my mom if I could go to the release and skip school the next day and she says and I quote “No since I’m a good parent you can go to the release, but you can’t skip you can go in a few hours late.” Then what’s the point I have to sleep Before school and it would just be a tormenting thing haunting me so that as everyone gets to play I have to sleep!
Better than me, I don’t even get to go late lol
Huge leviathan team,played only Sapphire.I never played the third versions until Platinum arrived.Rayquaza is pretty cool but I’m going with Kyogre as my vote
Just watched all the Pokemon Generations episode in a row, man they left Lucas out!
We’ve still got one more Sinnoh episode to go. They’ve been doing about 3 per region.
It’s hard to believe that the first Unova episode is when Sun and Moon come out
We have the dates for the next episodes?
Every Friday/Saturday
I…. I finally reached rank s+ in splatoon. it was hard, it was frustrating, but me and my sometimes excellent teammates finally did it!
I’m stuck in the A ranks.
i reached S+ twice but then got back down to S in a matter of days….
I honestly don’t care anymore. I achieved my goal, now I’m not too concerned about ranking down.
care for some splatoon fun right now ?
sure! send a friend request to Exeledusp (the “p” is not a typo) what are we doing?
okay ! lets do some private battles ? Just for fun . Oh and whats the weapon you use the most ? I don’t have a specific one as i tend to switch weapons between battles .
I switch myself, I’d say I’m most comfortable woth the E-liter 3k with scope, and zink mini splatling. I like using the standard slosher and krak-on splat roller
Yeah i usually play with the splatterscope and switch between ink brushes , rollers and blasters.
I want to learn the grim range blaster, I will have to take the time to do so.
ouh ! once you master it you’ll be unbeatable !
okay i received and accepted the friend request I’m getting online.
hey man that was a blast! we should do some turf wars together sometime! …and WSWR certainly needs a talented dynamo, hint hint.
Yeah definitely! What’s WSWR ? Also will you be free for another session in about 4 hours or so ?
its my squad. we are super casual, mostly just turf wars. WSWR stands for “Wish Squids Were Real” (a jab at a ridiculous miiverse post I saw once) I’m usually available to play from 12am-4am EST.
I’m going to have to leave so my internet can focus on splatoon. we don’t need a password
Thanks !
ugh you try adding me , idk why but its giving me an error notice.

trying to use only johto pokemon, any suggestions? to make grinding easier (which is hell in gen 2 games) I can summon wild blissey at will.
I like Xatu and Donphan.
xatu’s not a bad idea. I used donphan in heartgold, I’m trying different pokemon this time around.

This is false info Jelicent is from B&W not X&Y
Yeah that’s why I posted it, it’s funny to see people speculate and make huge mistakes on published articles.
Also it’s Lillie not Lilly.
Hopefully we’ll get news soon or else we might start seeing more “games” like “List all 721 Pokemon by order of preference” “If you could choose 67 teams to defeat team skull what would they be?”
Lmfao
You!
Me!
How are you? 🙂
Had a pretty lazy day apart from writing this essay. You? I check PJ hours ago and you weren’t online so I left x)
We keep missing each other O.o
I’m hereeee
I feel like doing a quiz like Deerlia did but I can’t offer a prize so you get my utmost respect! And no editing answers just re answer
1. What Two Pokémon are tied for the fastest Dark Pokémon?
2. What is the only non legendary Pokémon other than Porygon trio that has never had any direct correlation to the anime (only made cameo)?
3. What’s the only Pokémon to be banned in official Pokémon tournaments?
4. Which two Pokémon obtain Dragon typing in there Mega’s?
5. In the Manga what protagonist had the least amount of Pokémon?
6. What two Pokémon look like Fabio?
7. What non-Legendary and Mega has the highest attack stat?
8. What is the base stat of a Chansey’s attack?
9. What are the final bosses of All three of the Pokémon ranger games?
10. What Pokémon was promised to be in Gen.3 but wasn’t released until Gen.4?
Bonus. What month did I join Pokéjungle and what was my screenname at the time?(this is a tricky one)
Going go take a crack at this without googling anything! >:D
1) Weavile and Darkrai
2) Binacle? Never heard of it being in the anime.
3) Well, usually its legendaries but they’ve been unbanned for 2016,so assuming you mean Pokémon as in plural, I guess Mythical Pokémon?
4) Charizard and Ampharos!
5) Y?
6) Jynx and Golduck? :p
7) Rampardos?
8) Five?
9) Entei, Darkrai(?) and Mewtwo in that order iirc
10) Gastrodon, along with Shellos.
Can’t answer the last question since I’m such a newbie 😡
4. Charizard, amphoras, and sceptile
Oh right forgot Charizard ty for reminding me
I’ll take a whack at some of these:
1. Weavile & Darkrai
2. Klefki (?)
3.
4. Ampharos and Sceptile
5. Whi-Two
6. Uhm Mega Ampharos (?)… That’s all I’ve got
7. Non-Legendary and Mega? Kinda confused by this question. Mega Heracross is both a non-legendary and mega, but in case you’re asking for two separate pokemon, I think Rampardos was the highest non-legendary attacker before Gen VI.
8. I think it was 10 or 15, it’s insanely low, I know that.
9.
10. Whatever the answer was, news to me.
Bonus… Is this your way of trying to tell everyone it’s your pokejungle anniversary today? I’m jking. I’ll guess… June. No idea about your screenname
For 7 no Legendaries or Mega’s
No one got 10/10 so here’s the answers
1. Weavile and Darkrai
2. Klang
3. Rayquaza
4. Ampharos and Sceptile
5. Whi-Two
6. Mega Ampharos and Alolan Dugtrio
7. Rampardos
8. 5
9. Entei, Darkrai, and Mewtwo
10.Shellos and Gastrodon
Bonus: Nice try but it was March of this year and the name was Sneasel44
Oops, then who was aquaflygon?
That was me I changed it sometime in July after discovering Kurusu
I’ll do the bonus: February, Aqua Flygon
Actually I may have to fact check I may have made it in February or March but can’t Remember which but it was Sneasel44 for screenname it’s gone from since beginning
Sneasel44
Sneasel and Popplio44
Popplio44
Aquaflygon
The Last Kurusu
I love gen 3 and believe it or not I just got done playing ORAS for the first time and holy fuck you guys. These games are fucking fantastic. Ruby n sapphire were the first Pokemon games I ever played and so being thrown back to where it all began is just such a nostalgia trip for me. I mean seriously, these graphics, all the new updates to the story line, just everything. The region is booming with life. Just everything is gorgeous, I can’t even think how to make it better. Soooo happy. Sun and moon will be a phenomenal beautifully rendered adventure.
I only just finished the Delta episode on OR, because I was soft resetting for a good Rayquaza for a very long time.
it said i voted but i never voted?
I got the same, said I voted for Groudon, but I didn’t. I actually don’t mind too much as I like all 3 but I would likely have picked Rayquaza.
I voted for you. >:D
Happened to me too, coming back some time later helped. I guess it’s not good at tracking users. Or the poll is rigged!
Did that with Ho-oh for me
Has wondertrade been confirmed for sun and moon yet? I can’t remember
I don’t think so, but it is unlikely it would be taken out now imo.
True but sometimes Gamefreak likes to take things away from us
I hope Defog comes back as a TM
My favorite pokemon( though it needs an animation update since well… you’ll see.)

I hate that they dubbed them as Donuts, made no sense.
Mhm… lol
Here’s it’s evolution:
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7839096e32a9160817a5e82a1341075bfdf52f5b14313e28811bfd2999d0c0c3.jpg
I had a dream last night that somehow people had hold of the games (and I was one of them) and everything was being leaked online so this place was crazy.
Other than me getting the game early, I may not be too far off. xD
He knows too much, guys… We’ll have to end him. XD
So this is my team so far:
Razor (Treecko) Lv 9
Lola (Slakoth) Lv 6
Jay (Taillow) Lv 7
Right now I’m at Petalburg City leveling up Lola and Jay (whom I just captured). Lola is very hard to level up because of Truant, yet she’s very powerful. Also yawn helps out a great bit when Lola is loading around. I added on Jay because I always feel it’s a tradition to have a Taillow on the team. Yet later on, once I can get to the desert, I’ll get myself a Trapinch and replace Jay.
Trapinch is a good choice, once you manage to evolve it anyway. I would have used one but I used it in White 2 so it seemed too soon to use it again in my team. I have my Shiny Altaria instead, which I love 🙂
Wait where did you find a Shiny Altaria at in the games? Was it just randomly and you bumped into it miraculously?
Like my Gulpin?
I bred it myself with the Masuda Method.
Oh ok
I have a question for people for me should I get the strategy guide for Sun & Moon just in case of any confusion or should I not spend the money?
That’s what the Internet is for; save your money
If you truly want it as a game guide, I wouldn’t get it, the Internet is a much better source. I’m getting it for collector’s reasons, though.
I also get them because guides take a bit of time online to form a book just gives it to you and I normally look at a bit of the Dex to study stuff before making rash decisions
They don’t usually have the dex, that’s a seperate book.
HGSS being the exception.
I hate that so much… I still have my Guide Book for R/B/Y when it wasn’t even a question, if the Pokedex is included or not..
I bought the guide for BW expecting it to be like HGSS’s guide book, and was extremely dissapointed.
NOTHING so far was as bad as the XY guide book. It was quite literally incomplete, pictures and text missing a ton of places where they were supposed to be, it got names and facts wrong, it looked super rushed.
Keeping in mind how expensive those things are, such mistakes should actually be a no go..
I have the Pokedex for B2/W2, there are some mistakes in it, too and I ended up using the Pokewiki (German Bulbapedia pretty much) more than the book anyway, it’s just quicker and also has much more information on a single Pokemon than the Pokedex book. ut as I said, I mostly buy those things for putting them up in the shelf anyway.
Hmm. I do get what you mean. Back when the internet hasn’t been as big as it is now, I was always using the guide books. But I don’t know about today, I mean people get all the information up so quickly (also I live in Europe, so when I get my copy of the games, information being up won’t be a matter).
If you think it is useful for you and you have the money to spend, then sure why not? Although keep in mind what Ithsme said below about the Dex being it’s extra book, so maybe you’d want to buy that instead.
I mean Pokemon games never have been so difficult that one would need a guide book in order to not get stuck (the Victory Road in the original R/B/Y being the exception for me, but I was 7 years old at the time, soo yeah XD).
Guide books are also nice to not miss all the little details you might overlook otherwise, but that’s what makes exploring a game for me so much fun – all the stuff I discover myself – and that’s also information that will pop up on the internet.
Soo what was I even going to say here? (I wasn’t planning on writing so much pfff..)
I think it is up to how usefull you think a Game Guide will be to you, while keeping in mind, what you will find on the internet and if you want to explore by yourself without a Guide to follow.
I like displaying Game Guides in my shelf… (so guests think I’m not the poor moneyless sod I really am ahahaaa… uhm *cough*)
Bulbapedia bro
^ This
12….more….days….
I truly think they’re tapped out with leaks until release
At least you’re not European! :p
Thank god
I cry myself to sleep every night, because I’m European.. ;__;
Same here ;-;
This makes up for Yoshi’s Woolly World.
Fair trade, right? xD
While I love YWW…
NO IT DOESN’T AAAHH! XD
It was a pretty good game TBH, but yeah
There’s bound to be someone who gets an early copy sooner or later.
There one final leak, the next corocoro
I don’t think the CoroCoro the month of ever reveals anything new.
In the dream I mentioned below, I decided to wait and not play the game until the 18th.
Now that I’m awake I realize how stupid that was, I’d play it in a heartbeat. xD
So I’m finally playing through the two Zelda games I have to stall time for SuMo and I had the best/worst idea ever (which has already probably been done)
Basically, it’d be taking the world, story and characters of Link to the Past and would replace them with Pokémon, including enemies.
Keese-Zubat
Sand Crab-Crabrawler
Bow and Arrow Soldiers-Rowlet and Fletching*
Cuccos-Torchic
Stalfos-Cubone (evolves into Alolan Marowak) and Duskull
Rat-Rattata and Alolan Rattata (both variants occur, Rattata in buildings and outside, Alolan Rattata in caves)
Rope-Ekans
Crow-Murkrow
Thief-Sneasel and Nuzleaf
Octorok-Inkay (for wild encounters and go explain away the mind control of the soldiers) and Octillery (Remoraid would be catchable in the nearby waters)
Armos-Golett
Popo-Tangela
Bees-Beedrill
Fairies-Cutiefly
Anti-Fairies-Koffing for function, Minior for loose resemblance
And a bunch of Pokémon that fit in to the locations world, such as Kanto Marowak, Honedge, Geodude, Misdreavus and Gastly
Something I really want to do in the SM metagame: make a Pokemon kill itself by using oranguru’s instruct after the opponent used belly drum. xD
If I’m thinking right, Belly Drum won’t let you use it if the user will faint
Cursed on the other hand
I’ve killed myself with belly drum before, but I may be thinking of something else.
Does anyone have a link to the list of TMs in SM?
I had a dream that the strategy guide leaked early but as I was flipping through it it was only a revamped version of the Gold and Silver guide and I was heartbroken :/
I had a dream about SM as well!
(scroll down if you want to see)
Lol. I just want them out. The last weeks and days always seem to drag on.
For the first time in my life I want to skip the weekends lol
No. The game comes out on a weekend here. (Friday is weekend in Dubai)
A while back I had a dream of Sun and Moon with the trainers with Steel, Poison, and Ground Eeveelutions too bad it was fake it looked amazing
I had soooo many XY dreams, and I’ve had quite a few SM dreams.
These games basically take over my life. xD
Okay, so I’m nearly done the fanfic battle between Star and SassyChespins, so I decided to kill two birds with one stone and upload the two other polls of round one! (Seven participants in a round robin means one will sit out each round).

Posted before I could put in the Battle 2 bios, hold on a sec
Fixed!
Anyone see Prince Fae on recently? 😀
Two days ago.
He was on last night, silly. 😛
Oh.
They why did you ask? xD
Well, I meant like within the last hour or so. I want to talk to him about his fantasy novels that he’s writing.
Oh ok lol
Approximately 1000080 seconds left in my timezone (CST).
And now, we wait (more).
So cute! 😀 All these animals GF. Make. It. Happen! (Someday. Lol)
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ae278c3c6a99bd7e6c6e6d4f9214ee7b8a65ae18992652fa62c8feb7345dfc99.jpg
Then they make animals we want, but screw them over one way or another.
Just look our long-awaited koala and dolphin pokemon.
I like both.
We got a dolphin pokemon?
People are saying Tapu Fini is the long awaited “dolphin” Pokémon. Though I disagree since that’s like saying Tapu Koko is a chicken Pokémon. Regardless, I like the Tapus and I like Komala.
Tapu Fini looks like a Swordfish to me. XD
I agree lol
I still am under the impression that GF knew their demo would be datamined, hence the pikachu stats. But, *shrug* who knows?
YES! Finally someone who shares that same theory with me! Everyone thought that was crazy lol
? Everyone (everyone sane) knows that it was gonna get datamined… GF doesn’t live in a bubble.
Well, most people thought that the idea that GF was aware of datamining was insane.
Some even said that they didn’t know about ORAS, which sounds completely stupid to me.
I haven’t seen anyone claim that. But there’s always someone with weird opinions out there for every topic.
But just because GF knew it’d get datamined doesn’t mean there are more Pokémon.
Hey, they might have left a few surprises out. But, I’m also taking what we have as it. (Just hoping there is a surprise. Lol)
That’s true; but if they knew it was going to get datamined it seems like a very bad idea to leave all of the new pokemon in (unless the game has an even bigger suprise, making the pokemon more expendable).
I’m not saying your wrong for a fact or anything, but think about things from a cost-benefit trade off point of view. SuMo’s sales will not be hurt whatsoever by people datamining the demo. Due to the excitement of finding unreleased Pokémon, it arguably could increase attention to the brand and games. So why spend time and money taking all the Pokémon out of the code? What do they gain from that? And do those gains outweigh the costs of spending the time and money to remove code from a demo?
From a marketing perspective, I do agree with you there.
However, I’ve seen many people dissatisfied that they’ve revealed so much already (same with XY), so from a consumer, it isn’t a good idea.
But yeah, I do get where you’re coming from, and I’m probably just in denial trying to defend it at this point.
We’re not just talking about marketing though. We’re talking about the actual costs of doing business. Temporary dissatification from a VERY small group of hardcore fans that WILL buy the games regardless of leaks vs everyone getting more hyped about the games and talking about the games is a net gain. So they’re literally gaining not just from less wasted costs on taking code out of a demo, but people are also, on the whole, more excited.
But I will give you this, tricking us into thinking this was all there was could pay off to be a big marketing stunt too, so I would use that as a valid argument for why there might be more Pokémon. But I’m not holding my breath.
Exactly how I feel about it all.
We’ll find out soon enough.
I keep saying that, don’t I? xD
That we will! For me personally, I don’t care about more Pokémon. I’d like some Gen 5 fan service at the Battle Tree and then I have big things that I’d like to happen like the Gyms for post-game or Kanto region, but once again, I’m not expecting these things to happen, I’m just thinking it’d be cool if they happened.
Well, if they didn’t foresee the datamine why replace all stat data with a pikachu? I think we’ll get a surprise from GF this time around.
With any luck.
We’ll know soon, at least.
Lol exactly
The issue with Komala is that it is full of wasted potential.
The issue with Tapu Fini is:
A) It’s a legendary, so it’ll hardly ever see use.
B) It’s not an actual dolphin, and now because they gave us our “dolphin” pokemon, we likely won’t get a real one for a while.
Plus everyone wanted a cool dolphin this gen, and it’s just not what I expected, that’s all.
Wanted potential is subjective.
It’s legendary and not a mascot so it’ll likely see a lot of use?
Conjecture.
True, but at least Komola is cute…
The wasted potential. . .
My mom said the same thing about me, but I turned out alright-ish. Lmao
Great parents right there.
Though I know you’re joking. xD
Actually I’m not joking about that. Lol
Oh.
Sorry.
Lol Being gay isn’t always rainbows and sunshine, my good lad!
Oh, I didn’t think it was about that.
I just sound dumb now lol.
Lol My family was expecting me to pass on the family name, but that’s not happening. XD
Hey you can still pass it on! I fully intend on adopting kids, but on second thought, I’d rather let my name die with me. Ill prolly give them a single no surname name that’ll add a touch of mystique xD
Well, they meant biologically. Lol Plus, I like kids, but I don’t want any of my own. Plus, in its original language my last name means angel of fire/Burnt angel. Not particularly a great last name. XD
Damn autocorrect lol edited it^
Btw, this is a Uroplatus Gecko
Screw that
https://youtu.be/cBkWhkAZ9ds
With our luck they’d make it a rock type. :/ But, that’s adorable for sure.
Although it makes my stomach churn with caustic vile
I would allow this to be a Fairy/Ground Type
As long as it’s ground and not rock.
Another animal I’d like to see poke-ified! <3
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/35d597a4e67804d6617430bc2d9edfa9dae916ee2cbf7feab5069a11fd66742c.jpg
Hopefully it just looks like the Target dog and it’s Fire/Normal lol
Yes!
Please no, we have enough dogs
I mean there’s tons of dogs in real life so it makes sense we’d have a ton of dogs in Pokémon, too.
The Mighty Earthen’s indestructible soul has been weakened.
Treecko is literally inspired by a leaf-tailed gecko, at least to some extent :p . So many as of yet unused animals, and you pick one we already have hahahah 😉
Treecko doesn’t have a flat tail. There are TONS of different species of geckos. Treecko’s trail is chubby where as this uroplatus is completely flat. Not literally inspired at all. 😉
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Treecko_(Pokémon)
I was quoting bulbapedia, and tbf I know it’s only a collaborative source, but I back them on this, it’s a grass type gecko with a somewhat leaf-like tail. Are there any other geckos with more similar tails to Treeckos? (honestly curious, because in that case yeah leaf-tailed geckos have a much weaker case)
Ok so I just noticed this on vp. It’s from a trailer and I didn’t even notice it until I saw this pic. In the last train on trailer we saw a zoomed in pic that had Lillie talking. I wasn’t sure if the character we saw in the frame was actually her or not then, but now I am certain. Looks like Lillie really goes under some character development changes lol
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e029b3186e15eb71dd3c2701eb8ed3da53210ea8c75d993b3e0e8acc46358055.jpg
I noticed that in the trailer a few days ago, but couldn’t pause it at the right moment to see who it was.
Not sure this is Lillie, HOWEVER, we already know that she does get a costume change in the game, so this would make sense.
(For anyone who couldn’t tell, this is the island south of Poni)
Yeah I suppose it could be someone else, but it seems to fit just right so I doubt it’s anyone else really. Either way I find it really cool that the characters are getting actual development and it even changes their clothes. (At least with Lillie lol)
Still can’t believe we’re getting an actual STORY this time. xD
It’s gonna be so freaking amazing hahaha
Honestly I love the idea of character development, characters getting aesthetic changes along the way, time actually passing…
Which is exactly why I love seeing Red and Blue in the games!
Seeing them all grown up (well, mostly) is amazing, seeing as this is literally one of the only times of characters aging in the games.
I meant, aging in the same game, like it isn’t that realistic for a 10 (11 now) year old kid to explore the region as a whole in a month. Also tbh this is a RP game our age is never mentioned iirc we can be whatever age we want.
Age is mentioned, at least in SM (11).
But yeah, hopefully with the emphasis on story we’ll see growth and change.
It’s not really mentioned. It just says you have to be 11. Never really forces an age on you to appeal to the ‘E for Everyone’ audience.
He means in the actual games not the rating dip shit
You know that was just a pun on the rating? I wasn’t really referring to the rating. lol
off topic but according to people in my school today, Pokemon isn’t socially acceptable for me to like lol like why
Same! Pokemon is always made fun off and called a “baby game” at my school, while they all just play GTA and COD to make themselves feel like adults. It’s annoying, especially since I have years left with these people who have wronged pokemon in an unforgivable way. xD
lol Oh the days of school. There’s a webcomic out there that nails it on the head where it shows everyone liking Pokémon as kids, then calling it only for nerds and babies when they’re growing up, then everyone loving it again in college. People love projecting onto others in order to make themselves feel better about their live decisions and choices.
Weirdos. How old are they/you?
I’m 16 lol
I hope Hau turns out to be the main villain all along
He’s too nice for sure… but, so am I. O.o
I want a character arc where he’s all cheery and happy at first (like we’ve seen him), but then as you continually beat him over and over, he starts to get angrier and more power-obsessed.
And then, in the last battle against him, he has the starter that’s good against yours, showing that at first he was happy with losing and loved his pokemon, but he became power hungry and went back to get the starter strong to yours to beat you.
Like a reverse Silver.
And then he bursts open and turns into an Ultra Beast!
I realized that I totally missed out on the Volcanion event (as well as the other serial code events, like Arceus). Didn’t they have a second chance Wi-Fi event for Hoopa and Mew this year? Is that same thing going to happen this time around? I don’t care that much about Arceus and Genesect since I already have a couple of those, but I definitely need Volcanion at some point!
I missed the manaphy event but have enough Volcanions to offer one for a trade…
I could probably give you a Manaphy for Volcanion if you’d like. Did you get multiple serial codes?
Yes I did. I have multiple games and get serial codes for each of them (I don’t have a problem lol). But that could totally work!!
Not too unusual around here 😛 I have (at least) 4 Manaphy’s, so I’d be happy to give you one in exchange. My friend code is 2191-7648-0558, let me know what time works for you if you’re interested.
My friend code is 0662 – 3729 – 7277. And right now works.
Thank you very much! This will complete my National Pokedex in X after all this time.
I don’t know why I was just reminded of it, but did anyone else in the UK ever catch that advert which listed Rowlet as Plant/Flying?
and the data miners said we wether getting any new types :pLol 😛

I don’t like Sligoo as much, but I do love Goomy quite a bit.
http://tatanrg.deviantart.com/art/Ultra-Beast-02-Absorption-Pokemon-Sun-Pokemon-Moon-634552077
What do you guys think about that pic?
Noooooo! They’re an endangered species D’:
Oh… Okay…
Which leads to an interesting question: are Ultra Beasts meant to represent real-world threats to tropical ecosystems? Such as mosquito outbreaks or flourishes of jellyfish populations?
I can’t recall too many UBs off the top of my head, but it’s worth pointing out that bamboo can be an invasive species if not controlled properly.
I should know my Grandparents have it in their backyard
It can be!
Come, Pangoro! Face your newest challanger! Introducing Alola Pangoro. Fatten by his arduous battle against Bamboo the UB. Lol
:*(
All right in my conquest to fight my brother X v.s. AS here is the teams as of now how they’ll end
Mine:
Torterra
Aggron
Flygon
Muk
Hitmonchan
Beartic
Brother’s:
Greninja
Pikachu
Charizard
Golurk
Lucario
???
So who will win IYO?!
I believe in you.
I originally had Unfezant instead of Flygon but I changed to a Pokémon I like more being Flygon
He unveiled his last is Garchomp
Pros you, based on your defensive balance, but you have a lot of physical attackers XD You might have trouble with his bulkier defensive mons
Depending on your skills it could go either way (especially without knowing your brother’s last Pokemon), but I hope you come out victorious!
His last is now Garchomp
Me, my Earthen Warriors win hands down
Seriously Mamoswine alone takes out like 9 things easily
My only fear is that Greninja but only if sporting Protean
But Sand Rush Earthquake could end it
Nah it’s regular Greninja but he must have something on it cause how could a Greninja two shot a Torterra… with Surf?
Well it’s part Ground, isn’t it? That’s not too far-fetched.
Oh that does make some more sense probably rivaling Pokémon
Flygon or Garchomp
Hitmonchan or Lucario
Aggron or Charizard
Muk or Lucario
Beartic or Pikachu
Torterra or Greninja
Then your Torterra has Shit Sp Def
Beartic love! Yes! My favorite pokemon of all time 🙂 Props!
Y’all should I restart my X version for a quick play through before sun and moon?
You may burn yourself out… especially with XY.
Yeah I’m just bored lol. But I have this feeling I’d get to that dreaded firework show and call it quits lol
Mhm >.> That’s EXACTLY where my save file is lol
That awkward first date tho
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/32525484c6c8afcdde0cebad5d52a377bc3222649a49d0dca3d795230993451d.gif
My thoughts exactly… Sorry, Shauna
Mhm. She was so barking up the wrong tree. 😛
But, if you do. Choose Chesnaught<3
Haha of course !!
Girl, you know. Lol
Gen 6 was a solid generation in every aspect . . . Except replay value lol
Mhm… plus version exclusive Mega Stones was a stupid concept.
Yeah! Especially since XY had files for the mega Latis. Like they didn’t have in advance all the megas smh
Yup. Let’s hope SuMo isn’t a let down like XY was. Lol
Edited to fix “isn’t” lol
You’ll probably finish it in a day. And we’ve still got a couple weeks to go.
Maybe I’m not sure
Might as well
It’s XY, you’ll probably complete it in the next twelve minutes, never mind twelve days :p
Maybe Cynthia will give us one of the Sinnoh starters after we beat her in-game ^_^
http://img05.deviantart.net/4be9/i/2014/028/7/c/sinnoh_starters_by_jackspade2012-d743glp.png
I never want to see that disgusting face ever again (turtwig’s).
Oh come on! He was my first choice!
Same here! He’s adorable!
Ranked by cuteness: Turtwig, Piplup and (ew)Chimchar.
Ranked by Cuteness
1. Turtwig, Chimchar, Piplup
Last. Alolan Persian
I think that Druddigan and Turtonater hold down the bottom, as well…
Don’t forget Dunsparce and Spinda. Lol
And I thought you had taste on grass starters :p
After spending a year of your short life trying to find a “special” turtwig (my ex-second favorite pokemon) then you learn to hate.
Quickly.
Sinnoh’s already been confirmed with that Munchlax event (on top of everything else), but I wouldn’t be surprised if this happened as well. I’m still leaning towards Johto starters though.
And then Red or Blue will give us one of the Kanto starters
Hey don’t forget to vote a Pokémon for president of Alola so vote here
http://pokejungle.net/forums/index.php?/topic/180-pokémon-for-president/
hahaha very funny
Too bad, Sun and Moon didn’t come out this week. It would be such an amazing distraction! <3
Next week!
Oh man, I feel SO good to say that.
The week after next
;-;
You can play Yoshi’s Woolly World for five days.
Nah fam, gonna get me some Overwatch >:D
My friend’ll be glad I’m not constantly over at his XD
Overwatch is okay, nothing special in my opinion.
For starters, I was never a fan for the FPS genre (I’m still not), but the reception for overwatch made me interested.
Secondly, I don’t have the patience to get good at it. I’ve been playing for around 7 hours total and I still can’t use any characters well.
Lastly, the only way I can play is on my brother’s PS4, which I have to convince him to let me use everytime.
That’s a shame, but it’s not for everyone!
And sharing a console can be fun but the more you do it the worse it becomes ewe
I’m worried so much about the switch. Sharing a console is hard enough, there’s no way I’m going to share a handheld with my brother.
If it is the handheld replacement I can see them selling the pads separately tbh
If not there’s going to be a legit business on sites like Amazon and ebay with selling only the pad
They’d need a different way to charge it (from what we’ve seen, the only way to charge is when it’s docked at the console, which sucks, especially because I, like many others, like to have handheld systems for car trips.
I’m sure they’ll have portable and traditional chargers at some point, even if it isn’t Nintendo’s new handheld it’s still being hailed as portable
So I’ve finished the fanfic battle between Star and Chespin! Does anyone have any idea where I should upload it? I could just post it here but the format isn’t exactly that friendly to the length of it 😡
Me no care I just want to see it!!!
Pastebin?
I’m not exactly knowledgable about this, but you can post a bunch of stuff there.
I tried it earlier but I’m hopeless 😡
Yep.
My opponent can hit 5 Hurricanes in a row and Confuse me twice, but I can’t hit a single Stone Edge.
GG RNG
How’s your RNG luck? Usually I’ll get a spot of good luck and then it just dies for like fifty years
It’s fairly balanced overall but there are the odd games, like the one above, which kind of tick me off
I usually have godly luck, unlike many people here it seems. xD
Right, decided to just post it here just in case there’s anyone who wants to read it whilst I’m busy finding a better solution 😡
Monotype Madness
Round 1, Battle I
Brave the Default! Flying/Fairy!
Jordan was bored, tapping his fingers against the railing and waiting for one of the combatants to appear on stage.
Thankfully, the Unovan Tournament Association-known affectionately as the UTA-had decided to hold the the event at Nimbasa’s Big Stadium, rather than Driftveil’s Pokémon World Tournament Arena. This made one important difference: seating! And it looks like the decision came in handy, seeing as one of the competitors was running particularly late.
“Will Jeremy from Sandgem please come onto the stage?” The announcer announced, annoyed. “Or else victory will be defaulted to Ava, of Ecruteak.”
As her name was mentioned, Jordan looked down at her. You wouldn’t be able to tell from looking at this young, raven-haired girl that she was one of the most renowned Fairy-Type trainers in the world, but as a Fairy fan Jordan knew wiser.
For someone who entered the tournament to win, it was immediately obvious that victory this way was not acceptable to her. Her green eyes were darting nervously, the girl scanning the whole of the arena for traces of her opponent from atop her podium. She was anxiously switching between throwing her Poké Ball up and down and fixing her beanie, the black mass slipping off her head from the amount of movement she was making.
“If Jeremy does not step on his podium within ten seconds, victory will be defaulted to Ava.”
At the declaration of a deadline, Ava stared at the announcer’s box as intensely as the Astral Body Pokémon on her tank top. It was obvious she was not going to take this default as an acceptable option.
“Ten, nine.” The announcer counted down. Ava apologised to her Pokémon within its ball and returned it to the belt above her skirt, the purple veil shifting at the slightest touch.
“Eight, seven.” The audience began to make a commotion as they looked towards the Warp Pad at the side of the field flaring up.
“Six, five?”
From the Pad burst Jeremy, his blue flannel shirt and black jeans and boots marred with cuts and what appeared to be Pidove feathers. Despite the atrocity of his attire, his poise and gait were quite calm as he simply stepped onto the podium closest to his entrance.
“And it looks like our friend from the land of mountains has finally appeared!”
Ava excitedly the her Poké Ball back into her hand and waved at her opponent, as he simply returned a wave and ruffled a few feathers out of the brown hair that adorned his head and chin. He then grabbed one of his own Poké Balls and gave the announcer a nod.
“Field up!” The announcer yelled, before the field between Ava and Jeremy split and revealed a chasm-riddled fairytale forest. It was like something out of a Grimm story, the trees compact and offering shelter to a mass of mushrooms which formed several circles, yet scarred with deep drops into oblivion which kicked up drafts.
The Observation Tablets each member of the audience has received flared to life, showcasing several cameras littered throughout the battlefield. Most of these were not gifted to the competitors, besides the body camera that had been installed on every one of their Pokémon. These were displayed via eye pieces given to the trainers.
“Three, two, one! Begin!”
At once, both Ava and Jeremy threw Poké Balls onto the field, revealing Lilo the Mimikyu, and Clever the Staraptor.
“Get to the forest, Lilo!” Star shouted. Lilo didn’t need to think twice. Her timid demeanor and Clever’s Intimidating presence sent her into a skittering escape.
It was quite impressive, Jordan thought. He never saw a Mimikyu go so fast, and that observation came from a boy born and raised in Alola. The Disguise Pokémon attempted to vault over the canyon separating it from the most dense patch of forest, but Jeremy was having none of it. As the Fairy ‘flew’, Clever circled above her until her trainer simply pointed down, at which point she dove down with her wings surrounded in an aura as solid as steel.
“Protect!”
The Mimkyu projected a purple barrier as the Staraptor smashed into it. Even with a barrier, the force of the attack was apparent as it shattered the Protect into a billion pieces. It did, however, get Lilo to the place she wanted, even if she was launched there rather than being there on her own accord.
She had been sent flying into a thicket of forest, and as Jordan could now tell from his Observation Tablet, was hanging from a branch within the forest due to the notch in her stick tail. Ava could apparently tell this too, although it would be a bit obvious since the body cam would be upside down.
“Return, Staraptor!” Yelled Jeremy.
Jordan was confused. Why would Jeremy use Return on a Ghost Type? Although it did make a bit more sense when instead of diving after the Mimikyu the Staraptor returned to his Poké Ball. However, Jordan was still confused. It must’ve been obvious too, as the man beside him turned to him and offered an explanation.
“The dense forest isn’t any good for Staraptor, it can’t fly in there.” He explained whilst simultaneously trying to stop his small Swirlix from eating his beard.
“Oh. Thanks!” Jordan said, thankful for the favour. Both then turned to their screens just in time to witness Jeremy’s Gliscor swoop directly at Lilo in an Acrobatic maneuver.
“Protect!” Ava shouted again, as another barrier bounced into existence. This one failed notably quicker though, lasting just long enough to block any damage from Acrobatics would’ve caused.
“Damn it!” Exclaimed Jeremy. However, his attitude changed as soon as his Gliscor glowed a violent shade of purple as the Orb dangling around his neck changed in colour from a putrid purple to a more toxic Tyrian, before both the Pokémon and item faded back to their original colour.
Ava was visibly annoyed with this, as if she’d had experience with the art of a persisting Poison Heal Pokémon. She didn’t look too annoyed. By now, Lilo was at the edge of the chasm separating her from her trainer, but she still had a clear shot at the Gliscor emerging from the thicket.
“Curse and come back!” She commanded, and the Mimikyu seemed relieved that it could retreat-but not before it had summoned a spectral nail and had driven it inside itself, causing it to cry in pain whilst also carrying a hint of laughter.
Jordan always thought Curse was an ugly move, but it never really struck him as much as it did now as the Gliscor began writhing in pain.
Jeremy lifted Gliscor’s Poké Ball as the Fang Scorpion Pokémon caught a draft and rose back above the treeline. However, it looked back at him and shaked his head.
“Samson!” He began, before his Pokémon burst into purple light, with a renewed vigour as the light faded. “Fine, just don’t get too cocky.”
Ava had now selected her shining Slurpuff to go onto the field, as the delightful Tart bounced into battle. He gleefully galloped over to where Samson was now landing, and booped him on the nose.
Jordan was amazed, he never saw a shiny Pokémon in real life before. The guy beside him let out a chuckle.
Following the benign boop, there was a silence. Ava and Jeremy may not of been able to see each other through the thicket, but they could obviously tell the tension existed and were waiting for the other trainer to make their move.
“Swords Dance, Samson!”
“Belly Drum, Tart!”
Both Pokémon boosted their attack stats, with blades dancing over Samson’s head and Tart banging against his belly as he happily indulged in his Sitrus Berry.
“Play Rough!” Ava belted out, as Tart grabbed hold of Samson’s tail and started comically combating it until a cloud of dust arose. The pain Samson was enduring was amplified by the appearance of a spectral nail, but somewhat relieved with a purple glow.
“Samson, Acrobatics!” Jeremy yelled, becoming increasingly invigorated.
Samson pushed both himself and Tart into a chasm in order to pick up a draft, with the Slurpuff hanging on for dear life. He then flung Tart up at a shocking speed and rammed itself into him multiple times.
“Tart, use Return!”
Hearing his trainer’s voice, Tart concentrated on his bond with her and utilised their trust to summon an unbelievable force of power… That never even hit, as the Gliscor smacked back into the Fairy-Type and coiled its tail around it, and heard his trainer command “Earthquake!”
The two Pokémon began plummeting to the Ground, dead into the centre of the thickest foliage on the field. As they plummeted, the Gliscor then summoned a barrier around itself, which stuck close to the Gliscor’s upper body, with its tail sticking out of it.
They broke through the canopy, and then into the ground, unleashing a wave of seismic fury. Jordan looked to his tablet, but it was already obvious what happened. The audience had a mixed reaction as Ava retrieved Tart into his Poké Ball, ranging from the man next to him patting his Swirlix’s head to a guy on the other side of the arena hollering in happiness (something about Ground-Types beating up Fairies). Jordan looked at his own Poké Ball as Ava looked at her two remaining options, which caught the attention of the Swirlix Guy.
“Why don’t you let your Pokémon out to see the fight?” He asked. “Too big? Too small?”
“More like I’m too cheap.” Jordan frowned. He’d barely afforded the ticket to Unova and the tourney ticket, as well as accommodation and eating. He wasn’t able to buy a seat for his partner, who was a huge fan of Ava’s. Jordan felt quite guilty that he was getting to see the match and she wasn’t.
The man beside him frowned, and then returned to the action. Jordan felt bad, he didn’t mean to get the man down along with him. He’d have to leave an apology until after the match though, as Gliscor writhing in pain seemed to snap Ava out of her selecting stupor as she got Lilo back onto the field.
“Samson, Return now!” Yelled Jeremy, concerned for his Pokémon. His partner again refused, and began crawling over to the Mimikyu who was frolicking over to the forested area.
Ava didn’t look happy about the fact she was about to finish off a heavily wounded Pokémon but she knew she’d have to do it due to her opponent’s pride. “Moonblast!”
Lilo grabbed a hold of Gliscor as lithe limbs shot out from under its disguise and grabbed it. The Mimikyu then looked up to the moon, still just a relatively small white dot in the blue morning sky, but still powerful enough to fuel Lilo’s burst of pink energy, which emerged from her body and exploded into the surrounding area, fast enough that Jeremy couldn’t even think to command a Protect.
Safe to say, Samson’s pride was his downfall. Jeremy gave a resigned smile to the Poké Ball, before weighing his two remaining options.
“Both sides are down a Pokémon, but Adams Mimikyu is at half health.” Jordan pondered ‘aloud’, in reality hoping the man beside him would understand his attempt to rekindle a conversation.
“I know Ava. If anyone can pull it off, she can.” He replied, seemingly a bit happier knowing that the trainer next to him wasn’t a complete downer.
“I hope so…” Jordan trailed off, his Poké Ball still in hand. He returned it to his bag and nervously adjusted the five rings on his left hand.
By the time Jordan looked back at his screen, Mimikyu was freaking out a Salamence had just hosed it with a Hydro Pump and had dampened its Disguise.
“Good, Zephyr, we can get in a hit now! Hydro Pump again!”
“Get to cover and retaliate with Shadow Ball!”
The Salamence spewed forth a persistent pump of water, but its fair foe dived behind a tree and launched a few shadowy shots at it, one of which managed to connect.
Jordan switched the perspective on his Observation Tablet. Checking the camera fixated on Jeremy, his hazel eyes were analysing the battlefield for any possible openings, before opening up with realisation.
“Flamethrower, Zephyr!”
The Dragon-Type soared upwards, before diving downwards and delivering a fan of furious flames.
The forest was burning, as Lilo dashed out and crossed the chasm, back over to the small patch of earth beside her trainer.
Zephyr landed triumphantly in the middle of the field, nestling himself in the ashes of the forest. Some sections were still burning, but he didn’t seem terribly concerned about that.
Jordan wondered where the battle would go from here: Ava obviously wouldn’t get her Mimikyu involved in a forest fire, but Jeremy had an advantageous position that he most likely wouldn’t want to give up.
Once again, the Battle was at a stand still. But just as it appeared Ava command a Curse, Jeremy retrieved his Salamence and sent out his Staraptor again.
“Smart move, seeing as that’s his Mega Pokémon.”.The Swirlix guy said, trying to get his Fairy friend out of the hoodie resembling it.
Jordan nodded in agreement. He hadn’t even caught note of the Salamencite held in place on Zephyr’s back. Mega Evolution may of been all the rage in Kalos and spread to the eastern regions, but Alola was more centred on Z-Moves.
Ava commanded a Curse again from the looks of it, seeing as Lilo was now considered fainted and the Staraptor was writhing in pain as it attempted to Roost.
Jordan was starting to doubt Ava’s odds of winning. She may of backed her opponent into a corner by cursing one Pokémon and threatening to annihilate his other if it switched in, but she herself was faced with unfavourable odds-her one perfectly healthy Pokémon was fighting two slightly damaged Pokémon.
“Kumatora, this is your time to shine!”
Ava’s star battler was released onto the field with a shower of sparkles, her body radiantly releasing light.
Jordan wasn’t quite acquainted with shiny Pokémon, never seeing one before his eyes before today. But Star had just utilised two in one battle. And unlike Tart, who’s shiny status was an adorable addition to an already cute Pokémon, Kumatora’s royal blue body demanded respect.
But Ava wasn’t done stunning the audience. Kumatora simply turned her head to her trainer as she took her beanie off, revealing a little black bow. The bow then blazed into rainbow colour as Ava touched the stone in the middle of it.
Seeing a shiny was nothing compared to first witnessing Mega Evolution. As rainbow rays burst forth from Ava’s Key Stone, Kumatora’s Gardevoirite around her neck responded with an equally impressive glow. Her body was them cocooned by a pink orb, which then shattered.
Kumatora now looked as if she was attending a funeral. Specifically, her opponent’s. Even the intimidating Staraptor seemed to pause as she witnessed her foe’s form.
“You can do it, girl!” Jeremy reassured, as Staraptor winced in pain as a spectral nail wedged itself into her. “Steel Wing!”
The Predator Pokémon charged at Kumatora, and it was Jeremy’s turn to take action before his foe could even think of theirs.
Kumatora let out a scream as she was pushed back to Ava’s podium, and she looked up just in time to see Clever smack her right in the face with a super effective attack.
“Hyper Voice!” Ava commanded. Clever was coming back down for another attack, but even without a command circled back and managed to make it back to the edge of the attack’s radius.
The sound waves were laced with a pink hue: a visual indicator of the powerful Pixilate in action. Even at the attack’s weakest point, it was enough to send Clever flying, nearly knocking her out of the arena before she circled back down to the patch of land in front of her trainer.
“You know what to do, girl.”
However, Clever was already doing it before her trainer could finish speaking. She was roosting, but with less efficiency as the Curse continued to damage her.
Ava took the opportunity to instruct Kumatora to calm her mind, which would result in her special attacks becoming stronger.
“Now, Brave Bird!” Jeremy commanded,
Spreading her wings, Clever fell forward into the chasm and ascended with the wind underneath her wings. She then charged at Kumatora coated in an aura of aerial power.
“Jump on it!” Ava commanded. As Clever made impact with Kumatora, the Embrace Pokémon jumped on her back as she ascended again.
They were nearing the middle of the field, when Ava unleashed her next commands. “Use Focus Blast!”
Following orders, Kumatora leaped off Clever and smacked her down it a compressed stream of focused energy.
“Psychic!”
An odd aura emerged from Kumatora, and when Clever was caught in it mid-flight, she began screeching in pain via the telepathic attack. By now, Kumatora was once again grabbing onto her flying foe.
“Finish her off with a Hyper Voice!”
Kumatora inhaled and then unleashed a sonic smack down on Clever, who was hurled at the field in front of her trainer and rendered down for the count.
“This is it!” Swirlix guy exclaimed. “We’re going to see a Fairy-on-Dragon beatdown!”
Jordan wouldn’t deny it, seeing two Mega Pokémon fight for the battle’s climax was going to be extremely exciting-but he was doubting the possibility of it being a Fairy-on-Dragon beatdown. Quite the contrary. Kumatora had just taken a siege of Steel Wings whilst Zephyr only took a single Shadow Ball.
Zephyr was now back onto the field, and its intimidating aura offset Kumatora’s calm. Too bad that Intimidate impaired a Pokémon’s physical capacities and not their special prowess.
The two Pokémon were staring each other down, before Zephyr suddenly took flight. Jeremy then reached into his jeans for what appeared to be a lighter. But rather than lighting a cigarette, it lit the stadium with a telling rainbow shine, which was matched by the Salamencite’s shimmer from the brace on Zephyr’s neck.
In a blink of an eye, the Salamence was metamorphosed into a Mega monster, tucking its legs in and gliding the air drafts with its crescent wing.
“Kumatora, Focus Blast!” Ava commanded, brought down to her only option that could reach the other side of the field.
“Dodge it, Zephyr!” Jeremy instructed-the excitement was clear in his voice, and was also clear in the crowds’ cheering.
Jordan didn’t know who to cheer for. The person he wanted to win, who was stuck utilising an ineffective attack at a long range, or the person he thought would win, with a Mega Evolution perfectly adapted to the battlefield.
Swirlix guy seemed pretty decided on the cheering front, however. Ava’s name was loud and clear from his lips, and the Pokémon on his head was delightfully dancing.
The fifth Focus Blast narrowly missed Salamence, and it was obvious nothing was going to be accomplished with furious Focus Blasts and dedicated dodging.
“Flamethrower!”
Zephyr spat out a burst of flame, which barely tickled Kumatora following her earlier Calm Mind.
Another Focus Blast headed Zephyr’s way, but the slowdown caused by attacking allowed it to land on the Salamence.
So dodging was just going to prolong the battle, and exchanging long range fire would probably just lead to Kumatora using Calm Mind and laughing off the damage. Jordan wondered if Jeremy knew that he only had one option left.
Apparently, he did, which lead to a quick exchange of moves.
“Hydro Pump!”
“Calm Mind!”
With Kumatora calming herself to brace for the stream of water, Jeremy saw his chance.
“Return!”
For once, Jeremy wasn’t referring to retrieving a Pokémon. The only thing he’d be retrieving is the crowds’ attention back from Ava.
With his bond with his trainer as the catalyst, Zephyr flew straight towards Kumatora and slammed into her, leaving a sonic boom in his wake.
“Kumatora! Hyper Voice!” Ava commanded. It was obvious that she was well aware that this would be the last hit for either Pokémon.
Kumatora opened her mouth and began to let out an enchanting encore.
But her performance was cut short as Zephyr slammed into her, and an explosion of dust was kicked up. Kumatora was nowhere to be seen as it cleared up, until her Poké Ball violently opened on Ava’s belt and retrieved her from her fall down the chasm. However, there was no need for Ava to send Kumatora out to see if she handled the fall down to the auto-retrieval fail safe: her Key Stone’s glow dissipated.
“And the winner is Jeremy of Sandgem Town!”
A roar came from Jeremy’s supporters and those who just enjoyed a good battle, but Ava’s fans, including Swirlix guy and left out a clap at most. Jordan did give out a small cheer, but he was disappointed that the trainer he and his Pokémon supported lost her first match.
Ava and Jeremy shook hands as Ava let Jeremy step on the Warp Pad first, before going on herself after waving to the audience. As soon as both battlers vacated the battlefield, the announcer spoke up again.
“Evan of Opelucid City, and Ezra of Virbank City, please ready yourselves for battle! The second battle of the International Monotype Tourney Round 1 will begin in fifteen minutes!”
Fifteen minutes would hopefully be enough time for Jordan to tell his partner that her favourite contestant had lost her first round and then reassure her that she had another five potential victories. Jordan got up and started to walk off to get outside the stadium, or at least into a quieter part of the lobby.
The Swirlix saw his opportunity to inhabit Jordan’s seat.
“Puff!” He yelled at the Swirlix, obviously embarrassed.
“It’s fine.” Jordan smiled, and petted the Swirlix on its head. “He’s got fifteen minutes.”
The man looked up at Jordan, and returned a smile, before starting to play with the Swirlix as Jordan walked off.
As he left the stands, Jordan had taken his Poké Ball out of his bag and was looking at it intensely.
As he descended the stairs, he spotted a quiet spot in the lobby, as far away from the overcrowded entrance and the far more overcrowded confectionery stand.
Opening the Poké Ball revealed a small pinniped Pokémon. The Popplio was looking up at her trainer anxiously, nervously adjusting her tiara with her flippers.
“Well Venus,” Jordan began. “How do I begin to tell you about such a great battle in fifteen minutes?”
Tfw you notice a mistake when scrolling past your story
Soooo good! I felt like I was there! I love how you incorporate sides from the anime, game , and your own flare! And somehow without really knowing me you managed to capture how I would battle to a T! Can’t wait to read more ^_^

Hello there, i have been reading comments in a while but i wanted to comment in a long time, so here i am.(also im a “little” nervous, because is my first time commenting in any website)
Hi! Hope you enjoy your time here!
Thanks!
Kuppo!
Hey!
¡Hola!
Welcome you welcome here with open flippers
So I’m thinking about playing X with a monotype team. Any suggestions on which type I should use and which pokes? I have the whole living dex on my pokebank so I can use anyone I want thankfully
Hmm. Do ice, and use froslass, weavile, aurourus, bergmite, and others.
Maybe . . . But I’m not a fan of the ice type lol but I could prove interesting
Ice type need justice.
It needs justice in how it interacts with other types! Why they would only give it one resistance and so many weaknesses.
It needs justice in terms of new pokemon too. Look at how many fairies we got! Mythical creatures spoken of in legend are more common than a form of water, the most common thing on earth!
Well, I guess the ice caps are melting in pokemon too. xD
I honestly can’t believe that they created zero new ice types discounting alola forms. And only 1 dark type. It’s ridiculous tbh
We may have Crabrawler 2, but nothing is confirmed. Either way, it’s absolutely ridiculuous, especially since in an interview they said they were focusing on type balance.
There is absolutely nothing balanced about these new Pokémon types. lol I like all of them but they are not balanced at all. So many bugs and fairies
Bug, Fairy, Normal, and Grass were treated super well, while types like Steel, Ice, and Dark were left behind. One of the reasons I think there may be more to the dex.
Yeah. Also the fact that the data miners missed the fact the wishiwashi is a totem makes believe they datamine was intentional or exceptionally scrubbed
There’s way more than that to it, but those are a few points.
What else is there?
Well, there’s a bunch. I’ll just name a few. Firstly, the missing things likely aren’t totems. The images are the images that show up in the dex when you catch the pokemon, and as far as I know, you can’t catch totems. They also have shinies which I find odd. There’s no cat that changes its secondary type based on breeding, there’s no strange souvenir (NO, it’s NOT tapu lele!), etc.
I don’t remember that cat being in the original Chinese leaks that got everything else right. But I guess we will see. I’m okay either way honestly. I’m just hoeing for more cause more is better!
The theory is for that is that Totem Wishiwashi seems to be the same size as a normal Wishiwashi, whereas every other Totem has a size difference.
Hmm well my thing is nothing’s proven until we have the games in our hands lol
That seems weird to me. I get that it’s a mass of smaller pokemon, but there’s literally no reason for that to be the case.
It’s already big, unlike all the other supposed totems.
Doesn’t mean it can’t be bigger lol
Wishiwashi’s school form already rivals Gyarados in size. There’s no need to make it bigger.
There is though: totems are SUPPOSED to be bigger than normal, regardless of size!
The thing is though, you’re not going to be getting much respect out of a normal sized Gumshoos, Raticate, or Lurantis with pretty colours compared to a normal sized Wishiwashi
And it still gets backed up by the fact that they match up with the six trial captain types we know or can guess, and follow every known and implied Totem Pokémon we know
It makes zero sense to go out of your way to say that “totem pokemon are larger than normal pokemon” and then have there be an exception.
I might be wrong, but it just seems silly to me.
It wouldn’t be the ‘silliest’ thing they’ve done
Hmm
Normal-Type
Bidoof-Eviolite

Have fun :p
Nononononono, if you’re doing normal, Zangoose has to be there.
Nevermind, I didn’t realize it was a joke team lol
I only have to listen to this 548 times until release: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QddkDBBjnB4
I prefer Mimikyu’s song. X3
Love the melody and the song itself is so cute and sad..
I like listening to Mimikyu’s song now and then. It’s so cute and sad.. I love it so much aaahh ;__;
I read something interesting about Wobbuffet
There’s a theory that wobbuffets’ blue body is like a balloon substitute and that the TAIL! is the actual body
wow I can’t unsee it now
Yeah I’ve seen that too. I think it’s pretty cool!
That’s not exactly a theory. . .
do you mean its a fact?
Yeah, at least I’m pretty sure.
I checked the various Pokedex entries, most of them hint that something’s up with the tail. A quick Google search lead me to various posts/videos about theories about Wobuffet’s tail.
I don’t think it is stated anywhere as a fact, but I guess we can pretty much take it as such.
“Inflate his body” from pokedex entries should have been evidence enough. xD
Thanks though!
Not too far off
Wobbuffet in the wild go to great lengths to keep their tails hidden
So a more logical theory is that the tail might house extremely vital organs crucial to keeping it alive and something a weak as a plank tail must require extreme protection
Top 5 Final Hopes for Sun and Moon:
———–
5. For the battle tree to somehow not be another rip off of the tower
4. Somehow, the battle frontier
3. New pokemon that weren’t found in the
2. Gyms post game
1. Post game region to explore (or at least a large post game area to explore)
Oops why is the video there? xD
AND it won’t let me edit it. Just great lol.
pssst still hoping for version exclusive starters
Well, that’s more of a two step process. xD
haha guess so, but still though… & yeah more pokemon would be neat
Does anyone know exactly what’s going on with the files of the game or is everyone just confused like I am?
I don’t even know what you’re talking about, so I guess I’m with the confused crowd. :p
Snooping around on twitter I found some people talking about a few people supposedly having the files of the game. Some agreed, defended it, others called fake, you know how it is. I’m on the fake side tbh, if they had it they’d show it.
Since it’s possible to preload the game, wouldn’t that mean that people do have the files?
Not at all, the preload is locked behind two 128 bit keys.
There’s no way they’d unlock those in time.
Oh ok. I have no ideas how such things work. I just preloaded the Skyrim SE on Steam before it was released and that has been the whole ~10GB and I could install it right after preloading, I just couldn’t hit ‘play’. I was assuming that it would work the same with Su/Mo.. then again Nintendo would be pretty stupid if it were like that, thinking how dataminers would have gotten all they needed on a silver platter that way.
Not necessarily. The penalty for releasing that is bound to be pretty awful, so I wouldn’t blame someone who wouldn’t want to release that information.
True.
Is anyone else excited to see what moves need to be learned for all the Pokémon exclusive Z-Moves? I find it exciting. Just the fact that Z-Moves are used by enhancing a pre-existing move is such a cool idea. I was already digging them, but the more I think about this aspect of them, the more I love them.
Z moves are the one thing I’m not looking forward to, which makes it all the more painful that these games heavily focus on them.
Luckily they aren’t story based this time.
Meh
They are fun to watch… like once. XD Dunno, for me they are just way to gimmicky, also those silly poses the trainer’s do *cringe*
I love it so much. It’s so quirky.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3066842cc20ba9da2f4cc5508720e892d4e409e0e99a607f520885f5b5421df3.gif
The way that I understood it was that a Z-move would replace an existing attacking move of the same type… Does it have to be a specific move?
Only for signature Z-Moves it appears. We know Pulverising Pancake overwrites Giga Impact, and Guardian of Alola is a straight upgrade of Nature’s Madness.
I wonder if all the Pokemon-exclusive attacks will get Z Moves, from Roar of Time to Sketch.
Nah, I feel that’d be a bit much, and datamine spoilers:
They only found spaces for 11 exclusive Z-Crystals
That’s disappointing. Maybe the rest of the crystals are hidden with the rest of the PokeDex. ;p
Along with the Komala, Minior, Pyukumuku, and Ribombee evolutions and all the ice lines!
;_;
Minior and Pyukumuku will get evos when Wishiwashi does.
But Wishiwashi doesn’t need an evolu-
Ooooooh
That makes no sense.
Pokemon with gimmicky abilities have evolved before.
Pyukumuku I’d say could probably evolve, but Pokémon with Minior style abilities (mid battle form changes) have always been standalone or final forms.
Sadly it may have been confirmed no more Pokémon ???????
http://m.imgur.com/gallery/5C8ry
That sure would be sweet.
I’m guessing
Guardian of Alola-Nature’s Madness*
Pulverising Pancake-Giga Impact*
Catastropika-Volt Tackle
Stoked Sparksurfer-Wild Charge or Volt Tackle
Extreme Evoboost-Work Up or Helping Hand
Catastropika… that name. >.<
Agreed. But there’s 6 more unknown ones! And we still need to find out how a standard Z-Move works when you use it on a status move.
Tbh I think it might just not work :/
For the final six, I’m guessing
Starters
Legends
Zygarde
Starters are very very likely. Especially with them having signature moves. But I’m hoping the rest go to randos.
Magikarp
Dunsparce
Corsola
Gg :p
Dude I’d be so down for Corsola to get a Z-Move so strong it’s forced into the meta xD
Z-move: Black Hole. Everything is useless. ALL pokemon faint.
Well according to the datamine Mew has an exclusive z move
I’m really curious to see if there is more status Z-move like Extreme Evoboost that are not exclusive to a certain pokemon.
Well z moves can be used in accordance to the type of move. So the normal type z move can be used with any normal move; it’s power is just determined in the move of choice. So like you could use it with tackle or body slam but the z move will be stronger with body slam
The Pokémon-exclusive moves are different. Snotlax’s Pancake Pulverizor has to be used on Giga Impact.
Where is the evidence for this because this is news to me?
Well we were told when this special Munchlax was first announced that it was going to need to know Giga Impact. And since we got our hands on the demo and found out Z-Moves enhance a move your Pokémon knows, it’s now commonly understood that the Pokémon-exclusive moves will need to be used on a specific move for that Pokémon. It might have even been more explicitly confirmed than just that cause Bulbapedia prefers to sit on their hands until they know something is correct and they’ve updated the website to reflect this information.
I’m looking all over the Internet and I just don’t believe that’s true. Do you have any links?
Okay just joking I looked at bulbapedia and it showed it 🙂 I just never heard that before lol clears things up now 🙂
Silly’s ability is RKS System… RKS sounds like Arceus… Plus the Arceus-esque design that Type: Null has… this pretty much means that Type: Null and Silvally were created to battle Arceus.
Maybe not to battle Arceus, but definitely to imitate its power. My theory is that Type: Null was created to combat the UBs, which would require god-tier power.

I hope we get a new Pokémon Nendoroid based on a SuMo character.
Lillie probably (since important character without character customization).
I’d prefer Hau from the characters we know of.
I don’t mean to project, but I feel like a healthy portion of people who don’t like Z-Moves simply don’t like them because they fear the opinions of non-Pokémon players judging it for being childish or lame.
Well, I don’t exactly hate them. I just wish Pokémon would stop adding necessary gimmicks like Megas and Z-moves.(Necessary as you feel that you’re at a disadvantage without them) But, I guess GF has to add these concepts to keep the games fresh!
Well I see Z-Moves as a way to advantage to Pokémon who don’t get Megas or have a nice niche but their base stats are too low. Maybe it won’t work like that at all, but I think at the very least you’ll see a wider variety in tech Pokémon even if a specific format still ends up seeing a lot of the same 4 Pokémon.
Also I might share the sentiment in another generation or two, but for now, I’m liking Megas and Z-Moves so I have no problems.
The issue with the idea that it’ll give a niche to weaker Pokemon is the ALL POKEMON can use Z moves, not just the weak ones. This means nothing, the playing field is still as imbalanced as ever.
I’m far from convinced that it’s quite that simple. Your sweepers are already stronger enough to 1-2HKO your opponents Pokémon so why waste your Z-Move on a sweeper when a more supportive Pokémon might be able to make better use of it? We shall see. Plus a number of sweepers need an item that boosts their attack so you’re not gonna be getting rid of their held item for the Z-Crystal then. And Z-Moves are only used once per battle by one Pokémon. So the idea that all Pokémon have been elevated is grossly illogical. That elevated playing field only exists for one Pokémon per team for one attack in an entire battle.
That’s not why; I hate them for the lack of actual strategy most of them seem to involve. While not all of them are like this, the ones that purely do damage seem to be a one hit knock out used properly.
So you hate any strong STAB move too I’m assuming going by that logic.
I don’t like them cos the animations are too long.
Also the power of offensive Z-moves aren’t really that great. Is it really worth the item slot for a one off move that is isn’t exactly crazy strong?
Outside of playing online, I’m sure you’ll be able to turn animations off.
Wasn’t everyone saying the same thing about Megas? (Yes they were)
Yep. And some of them were proven right, however some actually worked and made the Pokemon better overall.
I can’t see Z moves in the same light as Mega Evolution since Z moves are a one off and Megas were for the duration of the battle.
The only time I’ll be using Z Moves is catching Pokemon. The Tapu are perfect for that.
The Tapus will rock for dex completing.
You’re a guardian to all the island Pokemon? Cool. Now help me capture them and keep them imprisoned in my PC until the next generation comes along.
I actually WANT things to leak oddly enough. While I don’t want story spoilers, I want other information such as post game stuff and the rest of the dex.
But that’s actually not why. I’m just really bored, and leaks would lead to stuff to think about, more conversation here, and interesting videos to watch.
Here’s my (nearly) completed theory on the UBs! Feel free to check it out and criticize!
http://pokejungle.net/forums/index.php?/topic/182-ultra-beast-theories-datamine-spoilers/
Which one is coral and which one is human? That’d make it a lot better IMO.
Oh it’s in order nevermind.
Yeah, sorry. I couldn’t figure out how to put the picture before the text. But like you, I think other people will realize that’s what happened. :p
The clue was UB02A and B being seperate lol. Good theory though, interesting to think about. I don’t think this’ll play in to the story if it’s true, it’ll likely be more of a parallel to how their terrorizing Alola.
I doubt this would ever be confirmed, even if my theory is correct. I just think it’s similar to finding what each Pokemon is based off of, and I was surprised that so few people had tried to do that with the UBs. Anyway, I had fun doing a bunch of research on environmental concerns!
Ooh, this is really good!! I’m really intrigued into what the UBs are and what they symbolize 🙂
So still continuing on my Emerald Run, and I didn’t remember that you battled May in Rustboro City before. I’m pretty sure it is, but is the battle something that Emerald only had?
Yeah.
Thought so. Are there more battles you do with your rival, as well as rebattle them later on?
I believe so, not sure.

They are so elegant.
Then there’s Sylveon with Moonblast. Jesus, moon belongs to Umbreon. Slyveon shouldn’t have existed imo.
Sylveon is the best Eevee though
Vaporeon is my favorite to look at :3
Jolteon, Umbreon and Leafeon are tied for my favourite one, with Vaporeon Sylveon, Flareon and Espeon close behind. Glaceon is OK too but not how I’d have liked an Ice Type Eeveelution.
My is Tied for Umbreon and Sylveon
second is Leafeon
Technically Umbreon is just based off of shadows. Only its attacks conveyed a lunar theme.
But then why is Espeon the Sun Pokémon and Umbreon the Moonlight Pokémon?
It’s based off of a shadow, namely, the umbra. Shadows and moonlight both tie into light. Based on your very observation, Umbreon is the Moonlight Pokemon, not the Moon Pokemon, again putting emphasis on a theme of light.
That makes me think Espeon shouldn’t be the Sun but the Sunlight Pokémon I feel it makes sense that way
That does make more sense, although I don’t understand what it has to do with the sun in the first place. :p
Sylveon should definitely exist… alongside a Dragon counterpart.
I WANT THIS

The perfect concept for a normal/ghost ‘mon ♥
I’m still waiting for this typing to make an official apparition in the game ahah
So my Laptop was broken for 2 weeks, had to factory reset in the end, lost a bunch of stuff but managed to get the most important stuff on a USB. In my down time I went and caught myself a Shiny Ditto with DexNav, it’s Relaxed with Imposter, took 796 encounters, but it was OK as there’s only it and Munna on the Mirage Island I was on (I tried in a cave before, if you have the choice NEVER DexNav in a cave). I also finished SR’ing my Rayquaza and the Delta episode at last and SR’d my Shiny Rayquaza events for natures and at least some good IV’s.
BTW can someone post the leaked Shiny dex from the demo for me (under a spoiler tag may be best), I lost my favourites when I did my Laptop.
The shinies are in here: https://sli.mg/a/4HOcnq
Thanks 😀
No prob

I like Lunala but not on the box art so I’m going Sun version.
Stunning
What if someone were to slide a knife across its wings? hmmm
Well, this sucks.
Power-up punch is no longer a TM.
yes, so frustrating 🙁
and the other big surprise TM-wise is the Leech life one !
Oh boy! Leech-Life! Can’t wait!
I just hope they increased the base power XD
Grrrrrr they scrapped Dig for that weak little move
It will probably get a power boost and be a Bug type Giga Drain.
That’d be cool.
I couldn’t see them boosting it past 60 power though.
In all fairness though it was needed since it was just to good to be a tm.
true. Like Drain Punch, i guess.
RIP M-Kanga
What are the TM’s this time
SPOILERS: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mh7RNb_PK1c
Here’s a throwback: https://www.instagram. com/p/e9jO8TIrS8/?hl=en
Good ole smoke break during the XY leaks.
Ah, the classic “smoke break” that dissapointed the hearts and minds of many.
Also whats-his-face, stated with a k or something, who was leaking.
IMO I hope we get leaks like this again, I’m so bord.
kosthedin. He drove everyone nuts xD
Yeah, I remember him now! xD
I think there was someone leaking from 4chan too, a seperate person, but I might be wrong on that.
Do you remember how early these were? IIRC, this happened around two weeks before release, didn’t it?
Yeah something like that.
If they’re happening, it may be any day now.
All I want to know are BSTs and HAs of the starters, and post-game content. I want to know nothing about the story.
I want those, and the rest of the dex, of course.
*bored
then came the briefcase
Well, I don’t remember that.
So Zelda is frustrating >~<
Which one?
LTTP
Never beat it, wasn’t a huge fan.
At the rate I’m going I’ll never beat it ewe
pre orders numbers of the Gen 6 and Gen 7 games about a month before release
oct 15, 2016 sun and moon reached 407,720 pre orders together
oct 18 2014 ORAS reached 148,220 together
Sept, 14 2013 X/Y reached 275,768 together
fixed put 2014 instead of 2013 for x/y
That’s awesome. Good for GF!
That’s huge! 😀
Good to hear these are selling well already.
It’s pretty cool knowing that I counted for one of those 407,720 preorders. B)
i counted for 2!
I’m getting both, but I preordered one of them after Oct. 15.
I count for two, and my brother counts for one.
I pre-ordered for all of these! And Sun/Moon are fully paid off. Going to the Midnight release and just picking them right up.
I’m going to the midnight release in style (Hawaiian shirt and pikachu slippers).
I wish I had a Hawaiian shirt.
This is the one time I’m glad I do; it’s not exactly used often. xD
Me Pokémon Shirt, Pikachu Socks, Pikachu baseball cap, My Chespin or Bunnelby plushie (Or if I can’t find them my Mirror Kirby plushie), and DS in Case with other Pokémon games
You’ve got a full costume there. xD
I am the super Pokémon nerd!!!
This sounds so dumb, but I’m so afraid of dying spontaneously in the next twelve days.
I’m like this for every major release lol.
IVE BEEN THINKING THE SAME THING LOL
HIVE MIND
THERE IS ANOTHER
SAME
YES
Me: So excited for SuMo!
Also Me: But what if I die tho?
I’m being way to cautious about everything recently lol
I’m glad my grades saved themselves at the last minute to stop me from losing my stuff
I knew you could do it! 🙂
LOL all summer that’s what I thought. I need to live until I play these games.
It seems like a bad motivation, if I tell anyone who isn’t a major Pokemon fan, they’d think it was stupid. But TBH these games are the most exciting thing I’m looking forward to by far.
It really isn’t a bad motivation at all. It certainly kept me kicking through some of my darker times. Just different strokes for different folks when it comes to staying alive, haha.
It is my main hobby, so there’s that. xD
If you die, you can come haunt me. You can be my ghost pal, and I’ll show you the full PokeDex.
I’ll die with regrets and never be able to move on if the dex is complete. xD
Thanks to denial I’m immortal
dont play god
But I’m so good at it
What’s everyone’s release day plan, seeing as it’s a topic now.
Me, and three to five of my friends (two aren’t going depending on price of the game, they may wait until Christmas) are going together into the local GAME and then going back to one of our houses and chilling (and hopefully ordering in a pizza or something!)
Bag of chips
Gallon of water
Armchair
Ass
And a potted plant to wiz in
I plan to play the game until I pass out
Lmao imagine drinking water whilst playing video games
That poor plant.
I’ll be working a morning shift on the 17th, which also happens to be my Birthday. I’m then coming home, maybe taking a quick nap if I have time. Then I’m going out to dinner with my friends, and finally going to the midnight release by myself.
THURSDAY NIGHT: I’m going to spam hype comments here and watch EVERY single trailer released to pump myself full of pure hype, and then leave at around 11:20 for the midnight release. After picking up the game, I’ll play for around a half hour, and then go to bed sadly (my parents were nice enough to take me to the midnight release, I might as well be agreeable and not stay up too late).
FRIDAY: After a long day of not playing the game at school, I’ll get home at 7:00 PM, and my brother and I are going to lock ourselves in our room with a bunch of snacks and play all night probably.
AFTER RELEASE: I just put this here to brag that I have a nine day break staring the 19th lol.
In the meanwhile, I don’t have a break until December 21st ;-;
Ah, that sucks. High school having so many breaks isn’t enough compensation for losing my friends though.
Every time people mention playing with friends I get super jealous. XD
I’m sure you’ll get friends back after the stress of school buggers off ^^
Two years in and it hasn’t happened.
I’m not that worried about it TBH, I’ve never been one to care too much about that stuff.
*stuff.
I have work on Friday….. But then my younger brother and my closest Pokémon playing friend will be sitting around the entire weekend doing little-to-nothing else. Hopefully beat the campaign that weekend.
my release day plan is to just go upon my day normally and then wait until 9 PST to play the game and then probably livetweet the hell out of it lmao
School
GameStop/Target whatever store
Play all weekend
School
School
School
School
School
School
School
…
Did I mention school? School, if I didn’t.
Trivia night at our local bar
Going to see Fantastic Beasts then heading to GameStop to wait for the game
Not sure how it will work yet. I’ll get my Amazon delivery, join my friend at GameStop or wherever it’s available before or after the delivery, and we’ll stay up all night and well into the next day. That’s the start of Thanksgiving break as well, coincidentally, so that’s all we’ll be doing for 10 days.
I have a nine day break for thanksgiving starting the 19th!
Same here. I couldn’t be happier with the timing!
November 17:
16:30 – Get home from school, eat dinner, and go to bed.
23:50 – Wake up, prepare midnight snack, build pillow fort, grab Banette plush.
November 18:
00:00 – Finish downloading Moon, and begin playing.
06:45 Get ready for school. ;-;
What time zone? Because if you aren’t EST, then you can get the game a little early.
I’m in EST.
Set my alarm to 08:30
Breakfast
Shower
Getting dressed
Head out to games store at 09:15
Arrive at 09:30
Fetch Sun AND Moon
Play Sun until 02:00-ish am until sleep hits me
Showers are for chumps.
I’m moving across the country on the 17 so if I’m able to stop by a game store on the 18 I’ll pick it up and play on the drive lol other wise I have to wait til I get to my new house
Well I’ll be at work until 5 pm that day, and they’ll be delivered to my doorstep the day their released. I will probably start Moon first once I get home (since I’ll get home close to 6:00 then have to walk the dog). Then on Saturday I’ll start maybe Sun version and play almost all day, both versions that is. Below are the teams I’m thinking of having.

I actually have that day off! My gamestop unfortunately won’t have a midnight release but I plan on going to Walmart at midnight to see if I can get a early copy like I did with a previous Pokemon game (need to buy a phone card too so thought why not kill 2 birds with 1 stone)
Thanksgiving Break starts so I will end classes, buy a 2ds and the game on target and play all night and then next day i got a flight so i will play on the plane lol
Omgomgomgomgomg
https://youtu.be/h00f8EGiC6w
Haven’t watched yet, but I’m going to say if this isn’t someone with the game I’ll be dissapointed.
Was dissapointed.
What do you mean
*Stroking a high powered pistol*
Eh, this game isn’t exciting at all compared to SM.
Well no, but it’s a diamond in the rough with the increasingly limited 3D Adventure Platform games
I feel as though there would’ve been more expletives and caps if that had been the case.
True.
OMG Dragon Ball Super is becoming better every week! Can’t wait for SSGSS Vegito next week!!! And sorry for the offtopic post, but I had to vent this somewhere lol.
Wonder when the person who gets its early will start streaming it on twitch. I’ll say by this Saturday
Well, if it happens at all it’s likely happen sooner than later.
Stores got their shipments this weekend.
Completely forgot to post this earlier, but here was the voting results for the of the first battle of the tourney fic! (Don’t look if you don’t want spoiled, but I doubt many of you would care :p)

What will your teams be? Mine:

Decidueye, Lycanroc, Wishiwashi, Salandit, Kommo-o, Alolan Ninetales
Which game/Lycanroc?
Oh right! I’m playing Moon, but I prefer Midday Lycanroc, so my friend’s gonna be helping me out. Gonna trade him my Rockruff and evolve it in his game xD
Are they version exclusive, or is it based on the time of evolution?
As to my knowledge, Rockruff can only evolve into Midday in Sun and Midnight in Moon.
It’s time of evo, as during evolution they draw power from either Solgaleo or Lunala.
It’s been specified to Sun for Midday, Moon for Midnight. They specified this in the reveal trailer for the two.
THAT PERSON IS ME
Yup! xD
SUN:
– Decidueye
– Salandit 2
– Oricorio
– Lycanroc
– Kommo-o
– Crabrawler 2
Moon:
– Popplio 3
– Lurantis
– Raichu
– Marowak
– Ribombee
– Something I’m forgetting
Oh, right! toucan is who I’m forgetting
I’m still in the fence about the Crabrawler evolution. Something just seems off about it. Hopefully that changes when we get official artwork!
I just really want to give it love for being the only new ice type. That or Ninetales.
What if the sea urchin is Ice/Poison? I’ve seen that idea thrown around.
Ice got a lot of love this generation with 3 brand new type combinations! :O
reaIly want to know the type of them all that we don’t have types for yet tbh, it might influence my sun team, but moon is full of fairies honeyyyy ;P
Prince! 😀
Heyyy
All hail the Cutiefly master race!
Love that shiny red scarf!
I haven’t looked at the shinies. I want to be surprised if I find one.
Well, that is one surprise ruined… lol My bad Wes. 🙁
It’s fine! You didn’t spoil the rest of its color scheme, and I’ll probably forget in ten minutes anyway. :p
Well, I think Ribombee has one of the better shiny forms in Sun and Moon. So hype if you find one!
I honestly cant wait to use it!!! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/44a0c3146e06cda5bcb2aab35d086b8e5b6ec5fde65968fe6799cad506a06eb7.gif
I hope Ribombee is a decent pokemon!
same tbh it looks a bit incomplete to me, I thought it would get a fabulous 3rd evo but if it turns out it really doesn’t I cant complain.
Same, it is also one of the few shinies that I actually like!
its a cute shiny thats for sure, my fav in this gen is probably Minior, but I need to catch all the shiny fairies this gen so I can still say that I have them all
I keep forgetting about Minior’s shiny!
Incineorar, Lycanroc (midday), Mimikyu, Kommo-o, Lurantis, and that new spiky looking Pokemon who was shown on the tcg box I can’t wait till we know its name!
Same! It’s already one of my favorites, and I know nothing about it!
Cool! here as well, I think all of the Pokemon this gen are amazing but isn’t this one just too adorable?
Lurantis miiiiggght be replaced with Tsareena
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5a553438dca1a3d805e2826ebfc38c2b1d0f85b286a3c21143504b6987b5e0a0.png
Lurantis, to me, fits your style more, tbh. 😀
NICE
Sun Version
Girl named Kamala

Ash-Greninja… Interesting choice! 😀
Only Kalos starter I haven’t used yet and seeing how much more I like Ash-Greninja over standard Greninja, I figured this was a prime time to use it.
I see. 😀 Well, I wish you the best with it!
Probably just getting Sun version
Girl named Evelyn
Decidueye, Alola Golem, Crabrawler 2, Wimpod 2, Vikavolt, Drampa/Kommo-o
If I do get both versions I’ll probably do an all alt form run kinda like SomeGuy below.
On the 12th day of Pokemon, GF gave to me: 1 gif of a swirling pimp slap tornado Incineroar!
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/2ad24f18e30698fd48cab4eb376feace3daa7fc29a5b17209b468b3594ca2b70.gif
Darkest lariat pretty much.
Nope, It’s the bitch slap twister of doom.
delete this gif now
If you kiss my natural blinding white… Ascot. lol
*kisses it*
Oh, myyy!

😉
Going to bed, I have to study early tomorrow + I’m starting to get hungry but I don’t wanna eat x):*
Every single time! Night, Leo! 😀
This post makes me want to rewrite (and maybe draw) the whole song with Alola Pokemon.
I’m counting down people! 😀
Yo, how does one do spoiler tags so I can post a little team card I made for Sun and Moon?
your text here
Just of course without spaces
Thanks Papi
Masuda speaking of Alola Forms: “This time for example we have the Alola Forms. Many of these are pokemon who come from the Kanto region, but now this new form must be studied, these new evolutions, and doing this we have been able to provide [players] a surprise that they would have never expected”.
“Many”, eh?
The way that he’s worded this…..could he perhaps be hinting at forms from other regions?
Maybe in future games?
Sun Moon remakes confirmed
Does anyone else like saying RKS? I know its Arceus but it kinda rolls off the tongue, for some reason it makes me smile xD I use to pronounce Arceus Are-c-us
Alright, here’s 3 little team cards I made for Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon!! http://imgur.com/a/Ej4yy Warning in-case I fail the spoiler tags, there are obviously spoilers from the datamine haha.
It seems I started a trend lol.
Except everyone’s is so much better than mine, I suck at computer art stuff.
I made these quite a while back and shared them on Twitter. I’ve been dying to share them again, and your little trend gave me the perfect opportunity lmao.
Oh! I made them two or so weeks ago lol.
I’m too lazy to even do that.
How did you make that???!! I want one!
I can make you one if you’d like me to. Just give me the Pokemon you want and which template, and I’ll make one asap.
Umm a team… alright so
Boy
Primarina
Komala
Mimikyu
Alolan Sandslash
Tsareena
Lycanroc (midnight)
Here you go!! http://imgur.com/a/O0EtA
I love it!!!!
It was fun making it!!
Thank you I really appreciate this!!
So I think what I’ve decided is that my team will be
Decidueye
Lycanroc (midday)
Vikavolt
Ninetales
Kommo-o
*Incineroar (if I can get someone to trade a litten)
*Sensu Oricorio
*Muk
*Salandit2
*Pikipek3
*Minior
Lol see my dilemma??
Totally Salandit 2!!
I think I’ve finally decided on a team..
Decidueye – Athena
Lycanroc (midday) – Sherlock
Minior – WonderBall
Salandit2 – Yzma
Pyukumuku – Loofah
Vikivolt – [Undecided]
Not extremely balanced, but it’ll at least make for a tougher playthrough ;D
lol that’s basically my team! Lol and if I was gonna name my salandit Yzma too! Haha great minds think alike 😉
I may get Shiny Alolan Geodude to name him… Cheeseball!
Haha!
Here are my teams that I think I’ll have. Of course it’ll change as I play the game and stuff.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/00f502d00a90c6a90c1232f7406b90ac53089df66467a16872f51b483c1c0670.jpg
Yeah I know I’ll change my mons as I play. That’s what I’ve always done lol. Cause I may like one at first but hate it when I play it
Alola dudes I’ve turned into my brothers in Alola with this sick hair!
I still can’t get over how they use that as a greeting. -_-
Ehh I just am under cover this is a wig to fit in and not be outcasted they use it a lot I really wanted to attempt to Slash them they say it all the time!!!!
With 12 days ’til Sun and Moon, Kukui gave to me 12 Marowak drumming. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f68d7945e5582a702be4f6735565cfb5f0f634375eb2566988b25d8811c23605.png
I thought it was churning butter
Churning, drumming, same kind of hard work and dedication~
xD
Anyone else hope WonderTrade comes back? Yeah, it was annoying to receive so much early-route fodder, but I still love the feature. Especially for Wonderlockes. Would love to do one in Gen VII!
I got an Orange Flabébé and a Contrary Snivy from WonderTrade. I want it back
Wonder trade helped me complete my pokedex! I also received two shinies from it! It better come back lol
Umm guys why did someone follow me then the website under their profile is a s*xting website??
They’re just bots trying to get you to click their malware site. Don’t worry about it, they’re everywhere/
Yeah what’s weird I wanted to ask who it is by posting to them they have never posted anything here’s the picture of the profile it just seems weird
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7030186911053d1899f92d86a1fdce69ccf1b429d0bcd1c5674e770a1c6b6e8e.png
Just bots. Dont worry about them. Block them if you have to just dont click on anything related to it.
But seriously. F*** tumblr pornbots.
Me: OMG yay! Someone followed me-
Follower: Thumbnail is a naked girl
Me: Oh… okay.. just another porn bot…
So I should unfollow them my force of habit I followed them
Why the hell did you follow them?
Force of habit I’m unfollowing now
and they dont even like your post. like wtf i want notes too
Yup and I’m unfollowing them it’s just weird walking into that as a website on their screen
always check their username, that the best way to know they are bots
The name was Elizabeth the picture is below on a screenshot I took to show y’all
i dont mean that. I mean @disqus_72373dsbjds. Thats her username. Elizabeth is just her handle
Oh
I’m still annoyed that midnight lycanroc is only pure Rock . . .
Me, too. I was hoping for Rock/Fairy for Mid-day and Rock/Dark for Midnight
Yeah or even Rock/Normal for midday which I think would be interesting
4x fighting tho XD
Same with Rock/Dark though
OK WHY THE FUCK WOULD A BADASS WOLF BE A FREAKING FAIRY
SERIOUSLY WHAT POSSIBLE REASON WHY
it’d be fairy to combat with the midnight, or werewolf one. it actually does make sense thematically to have it be that way. and fairies can be badass, just look at tapu koko and tapu bulu 😛
Oh please that’s the lamest excuse
It could’ve been Rock/Fighting having a sense of justice on the same level but nope it’s always the stupid fairies that’s the go-to type for ANYTHING
And the reason why Lycanroc isn’t a dark type is because it’s not evil or deceitful enough, more of a hot blooded fighter
And the Tapus are barely fairy types more just slap to bulk up the fairy count
It’s literally a werewolf who evolves from the power of the moon.
Rock/Dark makes way more sense than Rock/Fighting
Yeah a big floating rock in the sky
The moon doesn’t even cause darkness
But nonetheless it’s forever a Rock type and will always be one
The moon is directly associated with darkness and night…
I was thought that there would be some split to make the two forms opposing. Fairy and Dark are kind of opposing types.
The legend of Werewolves are technically fairy tales. I could understand if the day form was rock/fairy and the night form was rock/dark
Yeah, perfect opportunity for dark, which we only got one of. :/
Oh my god 12 more days

“Sun and moon comes out next week” is soooo satisfying to say.

i Have been in pokejungle ever since Nov. 10, 2013.. time flies
I remember joining a few days after the Mega Evolution reveal all that time ago.. Time really does fly.
I joined around that time, too. Way back when XY was still a mystery.
I’ve been here since spring of 2013. I don’t remember specifics, it may have been February, it may have been may, idk.
Actually I remember it was Feb when Sylveon was teased. #LightType
the what is sylveon typing era was the funniest thing ever. The amount of theories to end up being a new type was so funny
So fast its almost strange to think about it, I joined back in October 2013 though before joining I was a lurker for a few months came to PJN more often for Pokemon news than most sites
lol I joined back in freaking January of 2013 (back when I was called CharizardKing).
OMG
Hi Deers, i got a problem on my hoof… I never thought about what to name myself or a team i can work with… Anyone able to think of anything relevant for both games? I would like something Deer-related if possible for Moon, and something Moose related for Sun… Moon is a girl player, Sun will be a boy (so it’s fair to both people, deers) and i need a balanced team idea that would suit a deer like me~
Any ideas?
Bambi
John (hehe John Deer.)…or John Doe
Fawna
Stagnus
Jane Doe
Fawna sounds cute, i might keep it on my list, got any ideas for the guy?
How about Cerno
Can you… define that?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cernunnos
I can see that, yes~
Zazzlebumbles the forever shunned
Did you say… Zazzle?

I’ve got something a little special planned for a ten day countdown thing. It’s not that exciting, so don’t get your hopes up, more of just something I thought would be fun to do.
I’ve already forgotten about it
forgotten about what?
Who the heck are you
I don’t know, you tell me.
I DONT KNOW!!!!
NEITHER DO I
Sure. All for it!
Haha great! Again, it’s nothing big, but I thought it’d be fun to sort of wrap up the months of waiting we’ve done together here.
Nyargh curse you daylight savings CURSE YOUUUUUUUU
You given us an extra hour to sleep but added an extra bloody hour in the day and I want them do end faster!
All I can say is, I’m sorry Europe.
xD
I have a little dilemma. This is my team for Pokemon Sun:
Decidueye
Salandit2
Lycanroc (day)
Wimpod2 (if it has water type)
Mimikkyu
And here is where I have a problem
I want a lot of Pokemon in this spot: Vikavolt, Passimian, Kommo-o maybe even Mudsdale
which one do you guys think I most need in my team?
Kommo-o
Passismian
I love Passimian’s design, but I don’t know if it’ll be a strong pokemon stat wise…Although I would love to use him either way so it’s a hard choice XD
I wouldn’t worry about stats in the main game. I’m usin Oricorio, who likely won’t have good stats, but because I like the design and concept.
Tru, which is why I’m leaning heavily towards Passimian and Vikavolt.. But probably Passimian
I’d say use Kommo-o or Vikavolt (based on my opinion only, not on what your team needs).
Hmm… Kommo-o might be hard to get in the main game so I think I might go with Vikavolt
Since XY, especially with EXP share turned on, I’ve had around 10 pokemon on rotation, because otherwise they will be so overleveled. This way I get to try out a lot of the new pokemon, while keeping it slightly more challenging
Gonna cave in and buy a Pokemon soundtrack on iTunes. I’m sick of the music stopping when I leave the YouTube app. xD
DPPt
or
HGSS?
DPPt
DPPt

I never played this game; was it any good (cause this song is pretty good TBH)?
It’s ok my file corrupted before I could finish it
To be honest I was playing Coliseum the other day as a joke
I named the characters Dicky and Whorina, just for sillies
To those who think 175 tracks is a small soundtrack: At least 50 that I counted of XY’s 212 track soundtrack is:
A) PR Video jingle
B) Clothes change jingle
C) From Pokemon origins, and not even in the game
Also going with DPPt I guess.
I love the guitarist from gen 5

I thought you meant the acoustic guy lol
I swear to god it wimpod 2 doesn’t keep water I’m gonna lose my mind………….I have no idea what I’d use for water then. I suppose I don’t really need water, but it’s still something I like having on my team.
I agree. I really hope it’s water. I mean, I do still like Wishiwashi so I might use it but Wimpod2 just looks so cool and will probably be a powerhouse so I’m hoping it keeps the water type to have good coverage.
I think I’d be more fine with Wishiwashi if it wasn’t for its name sake. While in its School form it’ll likely be a massive powerhouse, but in it’s regular form I feel like it’ll be too weak and in a pinch that could be harmful.
Just for you I’ll pray to my numerous Dark Masters that Terrorpod evolves into a Bug/Dark type
You like watching other people in pain huh? Just for that I hope Alolan Dugtrio isn’t ground type and is water/fairy instead and is super useful so it’ll be everywhere…..Doesn’t feel good does it? hahaha
It’s going to be Ground
And hopefully Wimpod keeps its water typing.
Watch it leave the ocean and become a Ground type
Like a reverse Masqurain
My guess is Ground/Normal.
Yeah that’s probably what it is. I can’t imagine it’ll deviate too far from the original.
Ice/Fairy
Lol That’d be great lol
To be fair, we have so many new water types already.
That’s true….., but I really like wimpod2 and it’s use for me is that it might be a water type hahaha
We also have lots of bug types too. xD
Maybe Water/Dark?? PRAYING ITS WATER DARK
Nah.
Watch it be pure Fairy,
LOL
TBH while it’s a joke that’s how I feel they’re treating fairies
Lol tru. You look like you could pass for a cute creature? fairy.
Are you by any circumstance small? Fairy.
Do you have the colors red, pink, or purple on your body? Fairy.
Are you a pokemon? FAIRY
They’re loosely defined, that’s my problem.
Is a fairy a pink Pokemon? Then chansey should be fairy. Is a fairy a cute Pokemon? Pokemon like Komala and Sentret should be fairy. Is a fairy a beautiful Pokemon? Then Milotic should be fairy. Is a fairy a celestial Pokemon? Then minior and solrock should be fairy.
I could go on and on, but you get the picture I’m sure.
Its bug/dragon. Calling it now
Unlikely
Wimpod’s Bug/Water so it can easily lose its secondary typing royalties free
Shoot I had some hope. But c’mon… Wouldn’t you love the Water/Dark typing? or to correct myself: Dark/Water typing?
This is also true……watch it turns out to be something completely different hahaha
If it’s another Surskit, I’ll make it my mission to utterly obliterate every Wimpod I see.
amen to that
Seriously, surskit looks like crabrawler 2. Look at the color scheme, the number of legs, and most of all the hat thing.
I figured out what bothers me about it. There are so few similarities between the two forms; it’s such an abrupt change.
Very jarring indeed
Man the whole Surskit thing bums me out. I love Masquerain, but I would have loved it more if it had kept water……*sigh*
At least we have Bubble Spiders
I don’t know what to do for my teams!!! This is the first time it’s ever happened to me. I’m getting both and I’m doing sun first but I can’t decide if I want to start with litten or rowlet my first play through and I can’t decide on a team past Lycanroc day form… ugh. I can’t even wrap my mind around making a team
Then just go with the flow, catch everything and eventually a team will be formed
^^^^ Good advice. I’m planning out a team now, but I can guarantee that it’ll look much different in the real games.

Mimikyu should’ve had a friendship evo.
🙁
Yeah. I really wanted it to be like this. To kinda have a noface thing going on
If this is the full dex, while it has many Pokemon I like, this will be going down as the gen with the most wasted potential IMO,
komala…. whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
:'(
🙁
😐
NO
WE MUST HAVE HOPE
>:D
Pokedex wise, yes. Everything else would go to Gen 6
Pokedex wise of course.
In the end, the number and quality of the new Pokemon has never factored into my view and enjoyment of the game, it’s the features and game itself when it comes down to it. While it’d be a downer, I’d get over it pretty quickly.
The bottom part reminds me of The Beast from Over the Garden Wall.
@StarStorm I found your art while snooping around on Reddit. xD
😀
Dont look at my profile!
😀
Of course lol
Post it without the uploader’s permission
repost it a thousand times, each with more and more JPEG and gaining more and more karma
What do you mean? It was already posted on r Pokemon
some users on /r/pokemon acknowledge one of my shiny predictions being right
Pics or its fake
https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/4m9gwz/my_take_on_solgaleo_and_lunala_shinies/
That’s cool!
Also I remember when you made that, people were calling it watermelon bat and blood moon.
Watermelon bat BECAME A REALITY
And I wouldn’t have it any other way.
some being one but still 😛 i got it right
I was trying to think of a clever way to say that I wanted to see lol
I just found this Earthbound 64 website with all known info on it.
http://earthbound-mother64.weebly.com/
Can we just have an HD remake of mother 1,2, and 3 for Switch? Earthbound Trilogy? Earthbound Story? Earthbound Collection?
Earthbound 1.5 😉
No, none of them.
the 4 shinies i wished happened

Grape soda
The color swap they did was lazy IMO.
The only good one they made was Baile.
they got really lazy with the shinies this time
Not entirely, this gen had some great shinies, just not these.
alot of them are medicore atleast compared to gen 6 they are, komala shiny was one of those lazy ones
Yeah, but look at Vikavolt, the Rowlet line, the Lurantis line, the Cutiefly line, etc.
Every gen will have their shiny duds, and every gen will have their good ones.
*.
also its my opinion lol, some of them are great i just dont like alot of them. I CANT HAVE A OPINION ITHSME 🙁
You can NEVER have an opinion.
xD
Kidding aside, my personal opinion is that this gen did well on shinies, and I know there will be many that I want. But TBH your opinion has more authority behind it coming from a long time shiny hunter like you.
its also because i liked my colors better 😉
Haha that’s true for me too (at least on these). xD
But Cheeseball?…
Still bullcrap they are just inverse from original form for them
Agreed!
Only even iffy one was Sensu
Alolan vulpix is just a different shade lol
Only Shinies I love are so far
Sandshrew line
Geodude line (Cheeseball)
Diglett line
Rowlet line
Litten line
Pikipek 2 and 3
Charjabug line
Lycanroc (Midnight)
Mudbray line
Salandit line
Passimian
Wimpod line
Pyukumuku (Best)
Minior
Bruxish
Solgaleo
Lunala
First four Pokémon for my PokéJungle League team are ready. Woot!
Oh wow. xD
As a gym leader I haven’t started lol.
lol I got excited by the badges. But the last two are from SuMo so now I’m playing the waiting game.
Remember than bank doesn’t release for SM until January. And if XY is anything to go by, then bank won’t be out for a LONG time. There is talk of limiting the battles to 3 Pokemon until bank release, depending on the gym leader of course.
Yea. My plan is to just wait for full team battles. I’ll have plenty to entertain me till then I’m sure.
Yeah, everyone will want to explore that large post game island, battle the Alola gym leaders and take on the league, explore Kalos and solve the unsolved mysteries and then get the frontier symbols. 😀
🙂
:/
I want to believe.
;_;
YOU GOTTA BELIEVE
The weight of being the self-proclaimed most optimistic person is on my shoulders.
I must stay strong for morale.
Things to look forward to between now and the release:
– Lockstin’s theory 3.8
– LLLLEEEEEAAAAKKKKKSSSSS
– The election, maybe? If nothing else the political ads stop, which are super annoying
It’s so weird. Like, this election is actually happening. It’s never felt real but here we are
In two days we’ll know.
ugh its a lose lose situation…. im legit scared for my future.
Good luck with that last one :
It’s as dead as Decidueye around here. ._.
News blackout after demo is out was true, I guess.
Sadly. They were doing so well, and they ended horribly IMO.
Everyone is just waiting for Sun and Moon to come out.Not much is happening at this point.The last couple of days before the games come out are torture for some
I’m super bored lol.
There’s nothing to talk about other than a million different ways to ask “what is your team for sun and moon,” “what type gym leader would you be,” “insert your self into the pokemon universe,” etc.
Spill the tea, mysterious king!
Ugh so now I’m not sure if I want to get sun version or moon version! I hate that I can’t make my mind up! The only real reason I want sun is because of Lycanroc midday. Ugh I hate my brain
If it were me, I would do Sun because it has Solgaleo (my favorite legendary)
But in all seriousness, it’s whatever you want. No wrong decision, it’s just whatever your preference is over what Pokemon you want
I’m getting both eventually but idk which one to get first lol. I’m just hella indecisive. They both look so good
The question you should be asking is “When do you need Lycanroc midday?”
If you need it for competitive, then it’s OK to get moon first. If you need it for in-game, then definitely get sun first.
Ooooh. I’m just talking in game story. I’ll do my competitive mons later. Good point!
Hmm I just thought of something, if you get moon, you can try trading Lycanroc midnight on the GTS for another Lycanroc until someone trades you midday. 🙂 It shouldn’t take long.
Of course it won’t be *your* Lycanroc anymore so it’ll grow fast, and you have no control over natures…
I think your last comment solidified my resolve over the matter lol. I’m just so antsy waiting for the games I keep flip flopping what I wanna do lol. Thank you!
Sun: Lycanroc (midday) (you could have a friend level your rockruff up if you get moon, that’s what I’m doing)
Tortinator
Passimian
Solgaleo
UB-02 Expansion
–
Moon: Lycanroc (midnight)
Drampa
Oranguru
Lunala
UB-02 Beauty
–
hopefully this list will help you decide!
My thing is more the aesthetic. I like all the Pokémon and I think playing during the moon light would be a cool experience. lol thanks for the tip tho! Are you certain that drampa and turtonator are version exclusives or just guessing btw
As far as I know, the Turtonator/Drampa exclusivity is still up for debate.
So I’m guessing that that urchin Pokemon line is based on the Helmet Urchin while the evolution is based on the shell of a sea urchin https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/2d47942bee514be87a0ccbe816d276c07553b53ffece65133d5116749d7d2c4f.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/11183b3ea33251a67807a839d70a1f9e15c9a6175016a7cd2aeaf653b236085c.jpg
Actually no
It has more in common with a Crown-of-thorns Starfish

Man, I gotta share this: Finally got my shiny Protean Froakie! I used the Masuda Method but it took me almost 2700 eggs, during nearly a month. When I saw the shiny, I started jumping around like a kid. Honestly didn’t think I would feel so happy about it. And relieved that I don’t have to hatch any more eggs.
Hahaha, congrats. I did almost the same thing before got a similar shiny but it wasn’t protean so I rage quit shiny hunting forever. 🙂
Congrats man,being a shiny hunter I know that patience is key and it’s all down to just pure luck
So rather than asking who’s planning a team, who’s not planning a team? I was planning a team but I dropped it.
I’m not~ I am still unsure on what pokemon to add to my team.All I got are Litten,Salandit and Jangmo-o
I usually never plan my teams. I just build one as I go. This leads to me loving some Pokémon I never though I would. Lilligant, Grumpig and Hitmonlee come to mind
Me too I normally look at ones I love and then just keep a mental note when obtaining team mates yet I always the second they reveal choose a starter and normally one other like this time I want Mimikyu so I most likely will choose Mimikyu
I never plan my team. Always went in blind in the past. Even now, I refuse to look at the dex leak. Discovering and using new pokemon is half the fun for me.
Not me. I have a few I want for sure (Litten and Rockruff!) but I’m going to try some out before I make my final choices.
EDIT: Salandit and its evo look awesome to me too. And Bounsweet’s line.
if you guys haven’t heard, someone’s posting gameplay pics of pokemon moon. its on 4chan so its arguable, but he’s posting live, and stuff that we havent seen yet (rf) (commenters asked him to name his rowlet “fake and gay” btw haha) https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/82299d675ea239b753654f2a0556d8586bbe62ed6cb741a887a5260245868a2a.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ab808ac5aacde041a95080b789b508d8546bb1f63bb863f4f31f2e665519b58a.jpg
Let’s get him!! Don’t spoil this game for us people!!!! And wasn’t there someone named Anon here at one point? His name he picked was Anon
New Article!! Let’s go People
