Empoleon has just been announced as a playable character for Pokkén Tournament! The Water/Steel-type will be available in the arcade version beginning on December 15th. Its existence was first hinted at in datamining leaks during summer, but it will finally make its official debut now six months later.
Still no word if the extra characters, including Darkrai and others, will ever make it to the Wii U console version. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for some official word!










Boi, HE DID THE THiNG!

YO!!! TOO BAD HIS TRAILER WILL PROBABLY NEVER BE RELEASED BUT NOICE
Why do you think Dabpoleon’s trailer won’t ever be released? The others had one. Its trailer might come next week.
Cuz
Any breeders have a Modest Popplio for me? I prefer female, but I guess male would suffice too.
you should try to hatch a ton of Abras with Syncronize
Because (trust me it’s good in the long run) I painstakingly hatched Abras of all the good natures then hunted down Dittos in hope of the correct nature
That sounds boring and time consuming
Oh it is took me a week
But now I NEVER have to beg or not rely on natures since I have all the tools mahself
SELF RELIANCE
Why Abra with Synchronize though?
Synchronize to increase the chance of catching dittos of specific natures.
I will soon
tapu fini and it’s damn aqua ring…
The things a pain in the ass
Quick question. How do I get HA Pokemon in SuMo. Is it only through SOS battles?
Actually, yes.
Who is this Quackattack that has posted the last two articles?
I know that I have not gotten to it yet but looking at Minior’s stats… This thing is in the top 10 strongest Alola Pokémon (New ones at least)
Ok so everyone thugs that UB-02 Absorption corosponds to Gladion but I think it is actually Kartana. Since Lusamine dressed Lillie like Nihilego, maybe she dressed Gladion like Kartana. He would have that white and yellow and red color scheme most likely. Gladion wood change to his current outfit after leaving
I never saw how Absorption resembled him.
To me the only human characters that resemble UBs are Lillie who resembles UB-01 and Lusamine who resembles Pheromasa.
The thing is though, Wicke states that the first time Kartana was seen was when Lusamine summoned it at the same time as Nihilego and Buzzwole/Pheromosa
And tbh I feel the theory that Lusamine dressed people after UBs is kinda eh, mostly becuase the symbolism theory just makes more sense.
Also my shiny Salandit has Oblivious -.-
Well due to its frality I wouldn’t really want to use toxic anyway… maybe in gen 8 we finally get a bulky corrosion mon…
Screw that I HAVE INFINITY RESERVES ON A GROUND/FIGHTING TYPE
Hack the game and give Passimian Ground typing. There you go
Maybe we’ll get that too? Arceus, please?
We better because I’m still unimaginable pissed off that we got so many Fighting types yet not of the type combo that should’ve existed in the first place
Imagine a Dragon/Fairy type
My imagination shows me…..Mega Altaria
No like one that isn’t a mega. I personally want a Dragon/Fairy Regional Dragonite that resembles Dragonair
If anything a regional variant of Dragonite should be Dragon/Water. Or just pure Water.
Dragon/Water because I still believe Dragonite should have been Magikarp’s evolution
But it’s a dragon… It’s gotta be Dragon
What if the Dratini of the Alola Region find it harder to hide in the waters of a topical region and find island caves
But then I had this idea where Dragonite of the Alola region are totally blissful and very lazy, they sleep and eat more and become heavier as a result almost to the point of losing the ability to fly but they gain a (and it sickens me to say this) a psychic or……Ughh Fairy typing to reflect their extremely happy and blissful lifestyle, where if you find a very large Dragonite you’re bound to find pure happiness and relaxation
I WANT THAT SO BAD
Oblivious is even more useless on Slandit though.
Someone might taunt to stop the nasty plot though… heh heh heh.
But I guess poison “attacks” can inflict poison status on poison-types when Corrosion is used, so that’s a point for corrosion.
Well gotta set up on that Taunt Prankster Sableye…
Is -.- the face it’s making, cause its oblivious
Episode 5 with English subs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KPBEvmvsXE
Is the Ability Capsule in the game? Can I get it in PokePelago?
Battle Tree and Royal Avenue
so I’m rewatching some of the subbed anime and apparently Jessie’s Mimikyu harbors immense hatred/jealousy towards Pikachu
Which makes me think if this trait is personality or genetically spread across all Mimikyu
And speaking of Team Rocket I wonder what James will catch this time around, I honestly see it being a Sandygast or maybe even a Dhelmise none of the currently have his “scary dangerous yet a decent appearance” which kinda is his tendency when capturing
Any other ideas?
James since gen 5 catches small, but powerful Pokemon (Yamask, Inkay) so I could see him catching a Stufful, Dewpider or Minior? Especially Dewpider would fit James very well imo. He’s the complete opposite of Jessie
I actually thought Minior and Dewpider exactly
We never can tell, I was befuddled when they gave Jessie the Mimikyu instead of James
She should’ve gotten a Salandit who shared her toxic beauty
Could see a running gag with James’s Araquanid stinging him every time it gets out of its Poke Ball
I think the whole “James gets hurt by his Pokemon” running gag is very much over sadly
Also I didn’t know that the legs that held its water bubble actually could move
Alolan Vulpix is so pretty <3
You’re so pretty <3
Jk I am
Pretty easy to club
Tbh I’m not a big fan of Palossand, but I find Sandygast to be kind of cute. Anyone feel that way? Am I weird?
both of them are kings and have amazing shinies
Is its ability useful? It doesn’t seem to give it and immunity so I feel like it’d be practically useless
it should have been a defensive variation of storm drain. Is not completely useless tho. Switch into a nonstab scald or waterfall from a defensive mon and you can setup because he was #blessed with instant recovery
It also gets amnesia, which might help
he is uu for sure, is too good for RU imo. Now if GF gave him Arena Trap as a HA and willow wisp that would be a different story
Damn, too bad there’s no will-o wisp
You’re weird, but I also prefer Gast over Palossand
I had one of my “Delusional fanboy fanfic fantasy Battles” the other day and it depicted me as an Veteran trainer returning from the Alola to fight (insert main character) and I had Alolan Ground Types
A. Dugtrio, Pallossand and Mudsdale
But in my fight with Pallossand, my Pokeball hits the ground with a audible thud, and slowly sifts into the battlefield and right under the trainer’s Pokemon Pallossand’s tubular arms snatched….lets just say a Riolu from beneath the ground, it moaned with eerie vigor and had the ability to stretch its arms out and regenerate when blasted off, knowing powerful moves such as Giga Drain and Sand Tomb, but it’s mastery of its grainy body allowed it to sink into the ground and a terrifying awesome attack involving it opening its mouth right under the target from the sands and swallowing it with Giga Drain ( Where it’s mouth and eyes glow green and it inhales nutritent particles from the target)
RIP Riolu
Seriously imagine you sitting on a beach minding your own business
And suddenly the ground opens up revealing to be the unholy maw of a Pallossand
Good thing I hate the beach
my sister hated the beach so much that she always claimed she was allergic to sand lol
Lol, that would be a shitty allergy if it was possible
let me shook y’all: Jessie from Team Rocket hair and body form an R
Her hair bugs me so much
Weird how the Battle Tree doesn’t have a PMC or at least an NPC that heals your Pokemon
What your favorite Minior color? Mine are light blue, orange, and the best one the black shiny one
Purple! Because it’s my favorite color
The darker blue one, that they call indigo for some reason.
light blue should be called cyan and the other one just blue tbh
I was thinking Aqua and Cerulean
Pink and Black
So I had a totally awesome yet sweet idea, I want to draw a tributary piece of Sun and Moon artwork of a tanned Snorlax with Bermuda trunks with a ukulele playing to hundreds of Alolan Pokemon and trainers
In honor of Isreal Kamakawiwo’ole
Wait is a Jolly Zygarde good?
nah, he is a tank he doesnt need speed. Unless you are doing Zydoge so it can outspeed things
Why is it when I get a Jolly it’s bad and Adamant is bad?
I guess Bold would be better for Zygarde, But my knowledge of this is limited so I could be wrong.
http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/zygarde-10.3587319/
http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/zygarde-complete-100-forme.3587340/
those two sets should help
I go for Careful Max HP and SpD Sub Coil set.
But a Jolly one can work as late game Dragon Dance sweeper.
oh
Wait so Ryuki hadn’t appeared before in the Pokemon universe?
No. He’s an odd inclusion…. Lance would’ve made more sense. I predict he’ll return in the next games in some form.
They wouldn’t have included him with no reason imo
Yeah, I haven’t battled him yet, but it says he’s from another region, so perhaps it’s Sinnoh or hinting at the next one.
Its theorized that he’s Benga, Alder’s grandson from B2/W2. Evidence for this is that there are some similarities in design and the fact that Ryuki has Dragonite and Garchomp on his team. Benga gives you a shiny Gible or Dratini, depending on which version.
Ehhh maybe, but Benga also mained Volcarona like his grandfather so that’s sort of a gaping hole, imo.
Yup its a big stretch. Perhaps he’s related to Benga though. He has my attention, thats for sure.
He’s Benga’s absent father!
He’s one hell of a tomato dragon to ignore.
bird keeper toby actually put out a video about him today
I’m counting Nanu as basically being the first dark gym leader since it’s pre-E4 and I love him for it.
Nanu is the best. He would be better if he didn’t use that stupid abomination of a Persian in his team, but I’ll forgive him
Yeah, but Honchkrow’s awesomeness cancels it out. Also, am I the only one who thought he could be Guzma’s brother? I kinda wish that was true. It would explain why he didn’t do much in Po town.
I heard that theory and it would be interesting.
But nothing really hinted at it other than the fact he was snooping around Po town and grants the player access before disappearing. But I think that’s more to do with his character. He just doesn’t care what happens.
I love him, but he’s not a very good police officer lol
Honchkrow best bird ever don’t @ me
Honchy <3 <3
Doesn’t care? Check.
Practically our first Dark GL? Check.
A shit ton of cats? Check.
Nanu is best girl
I luh him
Urgh…Guess it’s time to start farming BP
Just bring whatever UBs or Tapus you got to the Battle Tree
This theme is to underappreciated https://youtu.be/JbhAGZTTjI8
Reminds me of Fallout
They both play in ruins? 😮
I kid I kid:I
YES I got a shiny Salandit from WT! Don’t care if its male or not I got my 3rd shiny!
*holds shiny golbat* My only one…
Rip
how its still alive DONT JINX IT 🙁
Shiny Golbat was actually the first shiny I ever found, but it was on my friend’s game and she didn’t let me keep it. I was pissed.
SHINY ZUBAT LINE CLUB THE SEQUEL
NO ONE ELSE CAN JOIN
Woo! I need to evolve mine. Should I bother EV training it? It’s Jolly and idk its IV’s
check the OT just for fun
Did you wonder trade your shiny males?
TBH I would’ve just been happy with a male shiny, it’s not like I could use it in competitive or anything (well, I got lucky and scored the best nature with my shiny zubat so who knows).
I actually only caught one and killed the other so I could keep up the chain. I wondertraded the first one
Wait, but you can’t throw a ball when there’s two pokemon on the field..how did you catch it and keep the sos chain up?
I caught the first one and ended that chain. When I found the second one I just killed it
Oh, I see now.
Okie it’s name is Fart Lover
oh yeah thats me (JK)

so i just battled this guy in the seafolk village pokecenter and he had a shiny exeggcute…is he supposed to or is it just a chance to be shiny? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/b94306fd7daa53df3a282fc283e6674f1515ac12fac61635f79f4c735c9c6b7a.jpg
he is supposed to. He talks about it being shiny after the battle
SHINY
just beat him, makes sense…sucks but makes sense haha
My friend wanted to see if he had any special dialogue if you talked to him with a shiny exeggcute, so he searched and found a shiny in 7 minutes.
._.
was ur zubat random
No. It started SOS calling for help, so I chained around 70 but ran away (oops), and I wanted vengeance so I chained and found it in around 50.
*pfft* hes showing off
