As per the usual Holiday tradition, the first trailer for the next Pokémon Movie has been released!
Airing on the Japanese variety show, Oha Suta, the next Pokémon movie will premiere in Japan on July 15th, 2017 and is called Pokémon, I Choose You!
The trailer showcased random landscapes, such as Pallet Town, and showed Ash putting on his hat and picking up a Pokéball followed by Pikachu looking a bit confused at the end. The official poster (shown above) features Ash & Pikachu in a field with Ho-Oh.
Thoughts on this departure from the usual yearly Pokémon film? Disappointed it won’t be focused on Alola, or ecstatic for this celebration of the 20th Anniversary of the anime?










I never actually gave my thoughts on this 2017 movie teaser. The animation style is absolutely gorgeous, along with that glorious art of Ho-oh! I’m slightly concerned that they’re continuing the Kanto throwbacks into another year but I’m hoping that next year’s game is somehow connected. I saw a Pokémon Indigo rumor today, but I think it will be Pokémon Stars with a Kanto afterstory. You really can’t count the movies and anime out anymore, as they commonly hint towards the future. We all thought that Zygarde Complete would headline its own game but it was shoved off to the side. Who knows what’s happening now, all bets are off.
I got my first gold bottle cap from the lottery :0 Sceptile will be perfect now <3
Ya mean, you will import a Sceptile from gen 6 and improve it?
I have my first Pokemon Sceptile way back from Ruby version still with me 🙂 So once Pokebank releases and I’m able to bring it up to Gen 7 finally, it’ll be perfect
Ooh! I wish I could do that with my original Swampert… 🙂

So it seems that Synchronize works with “in-game” giveaways like Magearna and Cosmog, but not with anything from Mystery Gift (so far).
I really doubt that you’ll respond at this time, but @irvinap:disqus how’s that story going so far?
What story? The Fanfiction I started before Sun&Moon I had to give it up too little time to spare and other things
I think it was the one where you were asking for suggestions about Pokemon that should go with Mallow and Kiawe, plus was about you and your brother I think
Oh that I haven’t started it yet
Found my shiny female salandit after 27 sos battles!!! Actually it’s after 287 sos cause yesterday I did 260 sos battles and i only found a shiny male salandit at 90 sos (and I had to kill it to go on). It has three ivs at 31(ps, def, speed) and one iv at 30 (which is attack, so unuseful), it has a mild nature, which is pretty good but a mediocre sp. att. (I have to give it a bottle cup). I must say this is the easiest shiny I have found cause the others were found at higher number of encounters (Bagon: 150; Dewpider: 147; Bounsweet: never found after 520; Eevee: never found after 500). There’s something in me that tells me that salandit has a higher shiny rate in sos battles then other pokemon cause 27 and 90 are really easy to reach.
If you want to try for it, I’ll leave you my personal strategy:
1) Find a cute charm male sylveon. Take it to lv. 45 or above and teach it Misty Terrain, Hidden Power (must be something not resisted by salandit), Psyshock and Shadow Ball. Let it hold the terrain Extender. Put Sylveon in first slot. This will increase the chances of salandit to be female to 66,6%.
2) Find a pokemon with False swipe. No matters who, just at a good level (I used a lv 58 Fearow).
3) Buy 30 Hyper Potion, 30 Full Restores, some Adrenaline Orbs and have about 50 Leppa Berries.
Now, save the game and find a salandit in West Welia Volcano (better there cause at lower level), at first turn use adrenaline orb and wait for it to call for help even at full health. When the help arrives switch to the pokemon with False Swipe and use False Swipe on the last pokemon arrived, then swith again on Sylveon and first of all use Misty Terrain. Then kill the salandit at full health and go with the chain.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1) Sylveon MUST be on first slot and must be active in battle, otherwise all salandit will be males.
2) Kill the caller after 25 salandit, 50 salandit, 75 salandit and so on to avoid struggle. You can count them looking at Sylveon moves. Uses the turns in which no one comes to restore Sylveon PP with Luppa Berries or to set up the Misty Terrain or to restore Sylveon HP.
3) When a new Salandit arrives Sylveon MUST be on the field. Even when you have to change the caller you need two salandit on the field, Salandit must not call for help while your False Swiper is on the field.
4) The chances of finding a shiny with the shiny charm are 1/620 after 70 sos battles. After 255 sos battle the chain breaks, I can confirm it cause yesterday I caught my 260 salandit and it had no perfect ivs. So at 260 turn off the game (to save all the items you spent) and start again. Trust me, it’s better to rest a bit cause there’s really no reason to go on with the chain.
5) If you find a shiny male salandit (It will probably happen, so be prepared) you can decide to catch it or to kill it and go on to 255. Your choice. I killed mine but found nothing after that in my first chain so I think I should have caught it.
That’s all. Enjoy!!
P.s. really important thing I forgot: Turn off the battle animations. This will help save a lot of time.
I’m legit curious, how do I have more success finding random shinies than I do with chaining,
Shiny Charm?
I don’t have that yet
use gen 6 games 🙂
I just left a Japanese Ditto with a Dhelmise. Masada Method + Shiny Charm = very quick shiny time!
I had my 6ivs shiny modest popplio after 454 eggs. Not exactly quick but eggs seem to hatch faster then gen 6 with Tauros
Oh please I got my two egg shines in less than that.
The chances are about 1/410 so you’ve been lucky
That was before I got the shiny charm though.
Then you have been extremly lucky
Or you were unlucky
The chances without the charm are 1/1638. I think you are the one lucky.
What about without Masuda or anything like that?
Masuda method is 1/682 without the charm and about 1/410 with it.
I mean no masuda or charm
Yeah. . . don’te expect quick shinies.
It took me 2500 eggs to get a shiny with the exact same oods.
oods? I mean odds.
Don’t spread your unlucky mumbo jumbo to me! I’ll have to shave off my entire skin to get the bad luck off of me.

FINALLY YEARS OF WAITING
3:07
SANDSLASH OFFICIALLY CURLED UP IN A BALL!!!!!!
>Pidgy
>Can fly
BLEH Normal Raichu’s run, he looks so ugly and fat, he should just not run at all such a weirdo. Allen however is actually good!
Now 80 base speed on venusaur has sense lol
Why are the Clams walking backwards?
Propelling themselves
dude they’re fucking bivalves
what possible locomotion can a hinged ridged shell possible posses
Why are they having sex with bivalves?
OMG DITTO
Awkward moment where Charizard X doesn’t even need to flap his wings to fly
Mega Venusaur…. are you okay?
Is Ekans bugged?
IGLOOOOOOO!! XD
Mega Evolving a Pokemon just to go for a jog is so extra
normal raticate, mega slowbro and omastar are the biggest jokes on this planet
I was wondering when he was going to post the running animations
I just realized at how legitimately scary it would be and a turtle with cannons just charging right over to you or chasing behind you, with you running away
Or Venusaur just bounding after you.
Does anyone else think we’ll get another Pokémon Ranch but for the Switch and with fully realized 3d models? I would like that a lot.
I still don’t understand how mega can flow u?
Related to this, I think people are looking too deep into this, I mean, wasn’t data found in Gen 5 for following pokemon?
And that ended nowhere.
i think the gen 5 was also a copy and paste of HGSS just with gen 5 mons included, this is literally making all 802 models walking and running which takes alot more time
DITTO SO CUTE
Pray for me one of the prefects is starting shit
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/90fe961c64aaaa307eb33bd4367035ea753072a531aa2dccee40c6e130dc1159.gif
Fight him/her
Wish I could
She’s literally started so much uneccesary drama, accused me of bossing her around when I was telling her what the other guy assigned her to and was trying to help her by talking to her, and got the head teacher to talk to me
Thankfully, unlike the drama starter, our head teacher actually has some brain cells and could tell immediately what was happening
Wow, this new season of Life is Strange looks really weird
Quite strange
Damn, this place is as dead as Kanto’s entertainment value
Not as dead as PJ YT channel tho :v
Tru
Nothing is that low
Hey fairy.. I hatched a shiny :3
I bet you it’s a Fairy nice Pokémon 😉
It is, it’s a Comfey 😀
I know, I saw
Jealous, I haven’t got any Pokémon even from chaining with the charm
XD IMO it’s funny
I got a Pokémon from an egg naturally before having success with chaining
Would’ve’ been better if it was Ghost tho :p
Thankfully it’s not as bad as Johto’s though…
…I like Johto…
Johto as a region is nice and some of the Pokemon are cool. But the games had incredibly terrible pacing and the fact that the Johto Pokemon are so scarce in their own region really bothers me. And the games require a stupid amount of grinding with a serious lack of tough opponents to fight. Victory Road doesn’t even have any trainers in it.
It felt more like a Kanto expansion pack than a sequel tbh
Basically yes. I think this is why Johto is my least favourite. I think it would have been good if the series had just ended after Johto but now its just so sub par compared to everything that’s come after it.
Although a couple of my favourite Pokemon come form that region (Scizor and Tyranitar)
It’s fun… If you leave it for a while before subsequent playthroughs
The grinding is tedious
Johto is the best what are you saying
Not when Alola, Sinnoh and Unova exist
Hoenn isn’t spelled with an S you silly
Yes it is. S-H-I-T. Hoenn.
Hoenn is objectively better than Sinnoh and if you disagree I hope you get your DS and soul stolen.
^This is me joking and parodying a poster on here lol BTW
That’s it, you deserve a spanking
Are we parodying the same guy?
Oh 😛
Boi… no
Your spelling is so bad, how did they make you Prefect?
Because I’m not deluded into thinking Hoenn is a good region
Ehhhh it’s ok
Bland
It can’t even do tropic right and the water does get annoying
And the Pokémon… The less said, the better
There are so good ones. The starters, legendaries, Gardevoir, absol and Walrein are cool
Some cool ones… A lot of blandness
Sinnoh and Unova, superior. Alola, inferior.
Lol no
They took the fun out of TMs.
Wut
You heard (…read)
Lay of my friend StarStorm. Johto was a sign that Pokemon was steppin it up. Besides it had some surprising evolutions.
Not really
School
I still lurk. There just isn’t a ton to talk about lol
That moment when they run bulky Nihilego
Specially bulky? Because that doesn’t sound too bad on paper
Physically Defensive Nihilego is the way to go.
252 Atk Beedrill Drill Run vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Nihilego: 160-192 (74 – 88.8%) — guaranteed 2HKO
0 SpA Nihilego Power Gem vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Beedrill: 134-158 (95.7 – 112.8%) — 75% chance to OHKO
That just says it all
I’ve always needed a very specific Beedrill check! Thanks!
You’re welcome.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! IT ACTUALLY LIVES A GROUND MOVE??
An 80 Base power one
Welp! I’m done with life!!!
Jk, but seriously… why?
Speakin of which, EarthenWarrior has been kind of a cocky little whelp. lol
Yo lay off my boi Earthen
L.o.f******.l:-)
You gonna sensor that? Nice
It’s got a lot of special bulk. I’d imagine it’s worth investing some EVs there to survive OHKOs. If it’s physically bulky… yea that’s unexpected.
I meant physically XD
I prefer specs TBH
I prefer Life Orb.
I’m actually warming up I this idea a bit. It’s way too early for Marshadow and they already spent Magearna so all that’s left is Necrozma really so this makes sense
No, Stop it.
If you think about it, this is the best way to celebrate the Anime’s 20th anniversary but I really don’t see how they can make a whole movie based on Ash’s starting days as a trainer. We’ve seen the first few episodes of kanto,and they weren’t really that good.
I do like this idea much much more than making a forced movie to advertise a legend like they do every other year though
…….
The only good thing that came out of Hoenn is the Megas don’t @ me
You mean the pandering
No, I mean the Megas
I liked ORAS, Loved how it gave the older characters more personality, loved the delta episode.
I also think that Hoenn has the best Pokémon after Sinnoh.
Originals weren’t that great,very overrated especially around here. Battle Frontier wasn’t that good of a post game feature either.
The Villian’s plot was the stupidest I have ever seen in any game to date.
Agree with most of this but the Pokémon
Liked ORAS’ characters not the game itself
Just like in the games Sun and Moon. Liked the characters, not the game itself…
ORAS were great imo.
Soaring and Dex Nav alone made it very enjoyable for me
YAAAAS
I honestly liked both. Even if the plot was kinda ass. Hoenn was where I started playing, I loved its region, and did not dislike a single Pokémon from it. So I mean, how those blind to criticism feel towards kanto is me to Hoenn
But at least SuMo topped it for me
I’m the opposite
If it isn’t:
-Altaria
-Flygon
-Salamence
-Swampert
-Cradily
-Armaldo
-Roselia
-Aggron
-Metagross
Or any of their prevos chances are I don’t care about them, forget them (Seviper’s rival) or don’t like them.
Forgot Camerupt
ORAS was shit though.
Bring back Emerald. Best game in the series.
Best shitty game in the series
Stop putting words in the middle sentences. Smh.
Best. Game. In. The. Series.
Just ignore him, Chaos…
Pot kettle black
It’s just ‘a game in the series’
>Had all the story flaws of RS
>Battle Frontier is overrated af (most of the shit is luck based, even for a Pokémon game)
>Replaced a good champion with a metrosexual snorefest
There is no such thing as overrated in Pokemon! You’re a thick skull, man…
Yes, there is
And a thick Skull is good, it protects your brain. Which someone like you could use
Obviously not all the flaws of RS, consider it was a better game. Battle Frontier remains a fan favourite in terms of Post-Game activities.
The main flaw it had was being before the Physical / Special split and not allowing most of the Pokemon to shine as well as they could after it.
Shitty story
Shitty music
Shitty Pokémon
Might be a fan favourite but it’s still shit
Remember this is all my personal opinion, I’m not telling you that you can’t enjoy it
Fair enough. You’re entitled to your own opinion. Personally I think its the best game in the series hands down…
I think it’s one of the worst tbh
For me:
Kanto
Johto & Hoenn
Kalos
Unova
Sinnoh
Alola
I guess that list is worst to best.
Mine would go something like
6. Johto
5. Kalos
4. Kanto
3. Alola
2. Unova
1. Hoenn/Sinnoh
*sees final three*
*strong approval*
Sinnoh…my Golden Days of Pokemon!!!
Alola
Sinnoh/Unova
Hoenn
Johto
Kalos
Kanto
I kinda think Unova ties it up with Sinnoh. Allowed you to obtain pokemon on the pc.
Nah, seriously though I liked the updated graphics of my favourite region, Dex Nav I enjoyed a lot. Soaring was Ok I guess, didn’t really use it all that much. All in all, I’m mainly disappointed that the events of Emerald were ignored…
They should’ve been tho
Delta Episode > Emerald
Delta episode was kind of boring and forced onto use after the main story. I didn’t even wanna do it, but I didn’t have a choice in order to open up the rest of Post-Game.
I wish it wasn’t forced, but Zinnia is actually an interesting character and it expanded the Pokémon universe into a Pokémon multiverse
Zinnia. A perfect waifu honorable mention.
I don’t mean to sound like an otaku, but which girl of the Pokemon series is your waifu?
Kiawe
Uh…that’s a dude…:-
Kiawe is best girl
My current top 10 waifu (1 being highest rank):
1.Hilda
2.Olivia
3.Shauna (XY)
4.Acerola
5.Flannery
6.Marley
7.Courtney (RSE)
8.Candice
9.Skyla
10.Jupiter
You mean Kukui?
Kiawe
Don’t @ me
Guzma is best girl
Worst joke ever…
It’s not a joke
Guzma’s a fuckin’ dude. Forgive my language…
Are you sure? ;3
Acerola…*heart eyes and steam nose*
She’s like 11
Don’t make me sound like I am some creep, dude. With her face and her dress, she is just irresistibly cute!
You are a creep
That’s called paedophilia
Language ok!
I’m not the one attracted to a little girl
She’s 11
I think my favourite thing about Dex Nav was that you could see which Pokemon were available on each route. I imagine it was great for people that like to catch everything.
I hated it imo
Ruins the surprise, especially since it’s hard to miss
I do see how others would appreciate it though
Nah I liked it and I don’t even catch everything, only what I need for my team.
Guess it made it easier knowing if a potential teammate was found on a particular route instead if wasting time going online just to check.
Just ingore Fairy, ok buddy?
He’s not a child, if he wants to ignore me he can do it without the help of a lolicon
Drop it ok?
It’s kinda hard to drop the fact you’re attracted to an eleven year old, fictional or not
Accerola is cute though.
And Kiawe is actually not much older but thats not my problem.
She’s cute as in adorable, not cute as in attractive
And Kiawe has abs and worked a part time job. He’s undoubtedly above 15, and surprise surprise, I’m 16
I was thinking around 13-14.
We actually don’t know how old any of these characters, unless specifically stated…so making such comments is moot…
Yes, abs and jobs
On a fourteen year old
Well Accerola is a Trial Captain supposedly at 11.
Yeh…nothing makes sense in the Pokemon world.
Except the fact that jobs and abs have never been shown on children where as kids being competent trainers has been shown since Gen I
What job dies Kiawe have other than being Trial Captain?
Also they only gave him abs cos he’s an important character that they made shirtless.
He worked at the Thrifty Megamart to get money to go study dance
EDIT: And I severely doubt they’d make a kids shirtless unless it’s called for
Oh that. I thought you meant like a full time job.
Many kids do a bit of part time work to save up money for something.
The writing makes it very clear that it’s a serious part time job tho
Especially the way Kiawe accepts being laid off due to money issued within the business
This is so pointless I’m starting to get bored. Kiawe was a rubbish character anyway…in my opinion obviously.
😛
Exactly
Hey same age!
Yass
Fab millennials
(Dabs) YEAAAH!
I am child though. Stop being mean.
Srry I assumed ur age ;-;
Time to go on the hunt for shiny Paras! fingers crossed for that hidden ability and soon I’ll be ready for Minior!
