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?
Oh, This is the film Ash Pikachu will be distrubuted for probably, that would make sense.
Also, Kanto Remakes again possibly? Just the exclusive Mew Z move reminded me of the Latios/as megas.
I mean, we all expect sinnoh remakes, but they’re not doing what we expect, so, it’s possible?
I’m mean I don’t want them, kinda fed up of Kanto, but it kinda makes sense, what with alolan forms being kanto pokemon, and Kanto heavily referenced throughout Sun and Moon. I wouldn’t count it out. Pokemon Burning FireRed and Pokemon Crispy LeafGreen or whatever.
The Mew Z-Crystal will most likely be distributed as an attached item to a Mew that will probably be a QR event.
That still doesn’t rule it out
If they did remake them they’d be Pokemon Blazing Red and Abyssal Blue
I jus tgave random names on top of Gen 3 remake names.
Maybe in Pokémon Stars we receive an invitation from Lillie to visit Kanto after she beats the League! That would be really cool.
What would Lillie’s team be? Do you have any ideas?
Kanto Starter Strong to your Alolan Starter
Starmie
Wigglytuff
Ninetails
Eevelution weak to your Alolan starter
Mewtwo…Kidding, Dragonite
So for me it would be: Blastoise, Starmie, Wigglytuff, Ninetails, Leafeon, and Dnite. My Meganium would kill the first 2, My golisopod would handle the Wigglytuff and Ninetails, Incineroar would OHKO the Leafeon and Outrage the Dnite
I should give reasons for the 6.
First ones obvious.
Starmie is a Star, just feels right.
Wigglytuff cause her mum has Clefable.
Ninetails cause she’s new to none alolan form. though could be any alolan really, maybe raichu.
This one just felt right due to Hau having the opposite.
Dragonite cause it’s the Psuedo
Should have Tentacool, because she is not over the jellyfish incident yet.
I believe she may have a Minior or a Ninetales, considering it would fit her in my opinion
THATS how to do Kanto right
You can’t do ‘trash’ right, you can just pretty it up and forget
:p
Never heard truer words
After going through Alola, Kanto would be a major step-down.
If they make another Kanto remake and they haven’t massively changed the region to make it more interesting I’m going to fill GFHQ with Electrodes that know explosion.
How about Sevvii Isles with their own island challenge
That wouldn’t solve the problem with the rest of the region being bland
And if they change it too much they run the risk of alienating Kanto fans
I was just suggesting additions.
I’d suggst, not a remake, but a sequel, none kanto pokemon have came to kanto, logically gen 2 pokemon, but maybe some gen 3 and 4. New Gyms, sevii isle with their own island challenge, a battle frontier and/or contests
A challenge mode like in B2W2 would be nice
Oh, I know, it’s just that Kanto is a heavily sensitive subject amongst the fanbase and I’m sure GF is aware of it
Though imo I’d rather see Sinnoh, Kalos or Alola again, we’ve been to Kanto four times
I’d like a new Unova, I miss Unova and I want to take new pokemon there
And it’s the only game in the series that already has sequels
Wouldn’t mind a BW3 tbh
Sinnoh I could get behind.
Alola would be ok if they took away some of the stuff that’s just for show and put back some substance (i.e. if I see another door that can’t be opened I’m going to punch something. Also large hotels are pointless when you can only visit reception.)
Kalos was ok, but it’s not one of my favourite regions. I feel like aside from Hoenn most of the 3D regions seem to be lacking substance that all the old tile-based games had. In some ways Unova’s hybrid 3D made the world feel larger than Alola’s true 3D.
I also want to see how some of the old characters have grown up and developed over the last 15-20 years. Misty, Brock, Sabrina, etc
Let’s be honest, The poke company has been risking alienation of fans since gen 5 when they removed all the old Pokemon from previous regions and started is off completely fresh. There would be nothing wrong with a massive change to the kanto region. Pokemon fans are really loyal and as long as you give us a good game with plenty to do and Pokemon to battle, there will be few complaints no matter if it’s a remake or a brand new game or whatever
Same as what Fairy said, that would then be the Sevii islands being interesting and the main region being bland still.
That said, I’m not in a hurry to do another island challenge, I found the island challenge to be easier than the Kalos Gyms.
While I think of it though, a whole game centred around the Sevii islands would be ok if they scaled all the Sevii islands up to Akala/Ula’ula size and redesigned/developed them to have some decent settlements.
What if they added a secondary story where it would be like the reverse of the Johto games, you start in Kanto and go to Johto
Then Johto would overshadow Kanto, that’s not making Kanto better, that’s just trying to make a mediocre region look better by putting a good one next to it.
I would love a Kanto remake as long as the story takes place in the Kanti of today and not the Kanto of the early 2000’s. Meaning they seriously should do a dramatic change to the entire region, updating it with all the fun features we know and love today. Going back to kanto with new graphics, new features, an updated region would be soooo fun
I’d expect Leaf to return, and the Sevvi Isles, so really more of a Kanto Gen 3 remake than a Gen 1 Remake.
Crispy leaf green.. that is magic
I know that im very late to the party but here is mine: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7b1ad03efc4cfa0b1d20f81b39b9a87afa1b1667d8a3abfc9bb3f835660fabda.png

This is more my VGC team for the tournament 2 days later.
http://i.imgur.com/xBBKjSG.png
Other then l as cling an ultra beast it’s a solid team for the current vgc meta
I’m thinking of replacing something with Xurkitree or Celesteela though. This is obviously a trick room team, but I have one extra gimmick…
Well if anyone cares haha https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c2270c958169af3eeb1c1cb0394e3fbef0ef781b4a08a90100acbdaf6f11b400.png
How do you make these Trainer Cards?

Here’s what mine looks like
A ranger?
I thought it looked cool,so I went for it.
Ah
Also,it’s from one of my favorite gens,so that’s a plus.
My on-the-spot not-very-well-thought-through trainer card:
http://i.imgur.com/0PowB3t.png
(And thankfully I managed to find a sprite that vaguely looks like me for a change.)
I finally got the NES Classic!
Better than an emulator?
Cant use it till christmas lol
In that case I believe you misused the word ‘got’.
well i picked it up myself lol, I just gotta wait so technically i got it
If it were me I wouldn’t wait.
Also I’ve been wondering what sort of CPU it has, I haven’t found anywhere that knows what CPU it’s got. My money is on a modern 32-bit ARM core like the Cortex-A9 (in which case I’m suspecting the emulator software is actually a modified version of something made for the OUYA) but they might have broken the habit of a lifetime and switched to a MIPS processor.
Nvm, found somewhere at last. Oddly it’s a custom ARM Cortex A7.

Gen 7 walking animations.
I still have to watch 3-6. It’s a dumb thing to just sit and watch, but it’s also super fascinating hahaha
It is! There’s a ton of love put into these tbh.
Seriously. I will be very surprised if these don’t make it into the next games in some capacity. There seems to be too much work put into them for them not to. lol
Lol what is Primarina even doing?
Scoot
Komala still the best
Been waiting for this one thanks!
Nebby walks so happily, maybe because it doesnt need to be in a bag anymore
Am I the only one that finds it weird that Mimikyu’s busted form has a walk animation? Surely that should refresh after each battle?
Drampa seems to glide, which is kind of creepy.
Also this generation suddenly seems kinda small.
MARSHYYYYY
Araquanid tho
AND PYUKU

aahw cosmog ur so happy
buzzwole is like fleeeex
Why do I have this feeling that the whole no HMs thing is gonna end up being Alola-exclusive…
Because it is.
And because it’s GameFreak.
But they’ve never removed a feature this big before? I can see them removing it in remakes but tbh I feel like it may stay around
Pokeblocks, poffins, the poketch, the bicycle, the radar thing from hoenn that showed rare moves, items and IVs…
Ugh that Dex feature with the rare move and Iv thing was awesome. Such a missed and revolutionary feature
Yeah, I liked that more than the amie and PTS. I’m really annoyed it got removed.
PTS, PSS? Whatever it was called.
None of those were major tho
Pokéride is literally crucial to completing the game
They’ve removed individual HMs before, upgrading and downgrading them as they please, so it’s perfectly reasonable that they’d go back to HMs.
Also the Poketch was a mandatory gift and the Xtransceiver function of the C Gear was necessary for certain stoy events.
Changing individual HMs and completely removing/adding them are on a completely different scale
Also, the difference between those and the HMs and their replacements is that they haven’t been around since the start and change every Gen
I think that Sinnoh will return to HMs, but then future gens (outside of the 1-5 remakes) will utilize something similar to Pokeride.
The water portion of Malie Garden has a Gyarados shape or am I just imagining this? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9e0186feadb8c9c71f748b3060ca21b23100f9fcd3860bc1f3147bb9228715d0.jpg
Wrong orientation. It’s Zygarde.
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/3/3a/718Zygarde.png/250px-718Zygarde.png
there’s a lady in the garden asking what it looks like from above, and zygarde is an option, but she says gyarados is right
Which one, I’ve looked all around and I can’t find anyone confirming what the pond is supposed to be shaped like.
Says in the Sun and Moon guide that its a Gyarados
I’ve got a guide that misspelt Anorith as ‘Anonth’. The guides aren’t always 100% accurate.
there’s actually a question in the garden that asks what it looks like, and i had to turn it sideways to see it, but i definitely see it 🙂
I thought it was Primarina https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/84aafabe60a4198be4425163a75732a3f41489d3d4b057040922025e419198d7.jpg
It’s not, but I find this idea amusing nonetheless.
See, it’s head looks like Zygarde to me, and the Tail looks like Primarina, but in no way can I see Gyarados
Super Mario Run is out for IOS
im also late but oh well
i just did something https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d61df60e9727caed5069a94c73a2269029cd1507a0fdcd8a1abb87841d8dcc2f.png

My favorite is Wimpod’s skittering
And Passimian holding its fruit with its tail
ur too late sir
Pretty sure that’s a coconut.
And coconuts are what?
Drupes.
I like Kartana’s movement, like a leaf <3
Incineroar not cuz I like him but this walking style is perfect.

Oh my frack Trey Parker is voicing the villian!!!!
This is gonna be great!
I think this one will be awesome!
Completed the Pokefinder. All that’s left on the passport is Battle Tree stuff, but I’ll wait for Pokebank to take that on.
The battle tree is indeed a pain, I resorted to the battle royal to earn BP, where winning the battle is effectively a gamble.
I haven’t even done the Battle Royal yet xD I’m really holding onto the hope that I can transfer my BP from Bank so I can get all the necessary battle items and power items and then will take on both facilities xD
Royal’s easy enough to reach master rank without IV training but it’s random enough that it might take several goes.
On the bright side, Master Rank awards 5 BP for first place, 3 BP for second, 2 for third and 1 if you loose, so even if you fail – you win.
I agree Battle Royales are fun cos of that aspect. You have to actually guess what each of of the other three are going to do.
And then all three of them gang up on you 3 turns in a row, and you realise it’s a conspiracy…
That’s annoying as hell, but what about when one of them steals your kill?
Mate … I was so sure of a kill once, I had a priority move and every thing….and then one of them uses Extreme Speed…
It’s sooo fucking annoying!!
Yeah, I get more kills stolen from me than I do actual kills. It really makes you realise how horribly slow gen 6 Pokemon are. Not to mention those 1-hit kills.
In the end I turned battle animation off to make the losses go quicker.
I have officially beaten Singles at the Battle Tree.
Got destroyed on a 10 Streak in Super Single by Guzma and his Mega Pinsir.
Congrats on beating Singles! That’s also something that makes Tree harder than Maison imo, the fact NPCs will use Megas.
I’m telling you Mega Zam was all it takes. And Metagross/Bewear for back-up.
I stupidly left my Metagross in the back in favour of Araquanid when going for Super Singles so of course I run into Mega Pinsir.
SUPER SINGLES?!
Super Singles
When Singles is too easy.
Oh my god…
Also I bred a 6IV Modest Popplio yesterday. My third 6IV Pokemon now.
Seriously I don’t think I got any 6IVs in Gen 6
*Gen 6
Well I just used Lillie’s Pokedoll to escape a wild battle. I give 0 fcks.
Have you no shame?
It was a drawn out process I needed an escape xD
Booo, Lillie would be sad ;~;
Jk xD
If it was that important it would be a key item xD I’ll buy a new one.
It was a nice keepsake, but you do make a point xD plus it did come in good use for you in the end
When I received her pokedoll I thought it would be a decoration for your room or something not a run of the mill pokedoll. suffice to say I was very disappointed when I found out what it was.
On the one hand you’re a bad person.
On the other you can move some over later.
You’re a heartless monster.
Here is my card 🙂 https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e029c51073581111f129544eb7a374edc7ee31d5f5484b88f06a66e20061df15.png
I watched the walking video for gen 7. Wow gen 7 had so many sassy queen Pokémon. Salazzle, Tsareena, Primarina(kinda?) and Pheramosa
And *sigh* bruxish I GUESS
Don’t you think that the movie based on the very first episode would be a tad disappointing? I sure hope they have the xy style that they should’ve kept in Sun and Moon. That anime is still goddang muddy.
It not going I watch it anyways so I don’t really care. It can’t get any better than The Power of One
Can you also tell them to unban my IP address if you see a comment from any of its moderarors? I am very sorry for going overboard…
Stop trying to evade the ban and wait for them to contact you back
I think Bruxish looks more intimidating than anything else. Screw the pink – dem teeth!

Gengar’s in the back :3
Tsareena is better anyways
Another forgettable pokemon from this gen
I can’t forget it. It’s always in my nightmares
Just fought a low latter on showdown, the guy was using Blizzard Politoed for reference
He crits both my walls, and crits flinches my sweeper… fml
Hey guys! I’m going to be having lunch in a minute, but I have a box of snow warning vulpixes with varies IVs [2 with good ones] and one with mimikyus with egg moves. Anyone want one?
Are those Timid Vulpix by any chance?
yup! ^^
Naw just throw one or thirty in an incinerator fer me k thnx bai
DDD:
I thought Mimi doesn’t get egg moves
I fear that it would be disappointing…
Bruxish mega evo leaked:

I wish Hidden Abilities were guaranteed to pass down if the parent is holding an Everstone. The amount of 5 IV Regenerator Mareanie I’d have by now
Why can’t all offspring just share the same ability as the parents:
Both parents same = Guaranteed.
Parents different = 50:50 chance for either.
Also could I have a spare HA Mareanie please
Sure!
Cool. Thanks. I don’t have anything special to offer. Do you want a Jolly Beldum or a Relaxed Torkoal?
I’ll take a Relaxed Torkoal, that sounds cool 😀 Just give me a few minutes to try finding a 5 IV one for you now that I finally got a 5 IV Mareanie xD
I’ll give you the spare 5IV one I have (missing speed), ripe for EV training 🙂
Why thank you! :0 I’ll message up top when ready ^_^ Would you actually be able to nickname that one Turkey? Also would you like a nickname at all for Mareanie?
Yeh, No problem. I’ll have to go find the nickname guy though.
And no I’m good. I don’t really do nicknames
He’s in the HeaHea City Tourist Center!
Got him. I’ll be ready whenever you are.
I have like 6. 😛
What nature? I’m good now, I got mine, egg moves as well. I went Bold 🙂
Calm.
Also with egg moves. 😛
