Just a day after Pokémon GO’s release on the Apple Watch, Niantic has revealed the holiday event for the ever popular mobile game!
December 25th until January 3rd
- Get a one time use Incubator each day on your first PokéStop spin of the day
- All the recently baby Pokémon’s eggs will be more likely to be obtained from PokéStops during this time period as well
- Previously only set to appear until December 29th, the Festive Hat Pikachu will be now be available in the wild until January 3rd
December 30th – January 8th
- Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle and their evolutionary lines are more likely to be encountered during this time
- Lure modules will last for 60 minutes instead of the usual 30 minutes
Strangely, even though the presents are in the image they used, Niantic didn’t explain the mystery gifts found in the APK.
For the full statement check out their official blog!
Ghost/fairy is one of the best typings.
Unrelated: what if playing the game entirely in the rules of inverse battling was an option. Would you try it?
To make my ice types amazing?? Yes
It would actually make the game much more challenging. I would def try it. Probably lose my sanity though
I nuzlocked Volt White 2…. and won
Challenge mode?
Yes
I don’t believe you! There hasn’t been anyone to do it. You must have overlleveled
I mean…. I did have to alter one tiny rule… I had to use the “it’s not over until everything dies” rather than simple if you white out it is over
I ended up whiting out twice, once at the end of Victory road, and once to the final trainer of the aftergame
Ah. that’s still good. I play by that rule when I nuzlocke. When I get my laptop I will try to nuzlocke it to
Like on an emulator?
Yea. Why?
I didn’t know you could do emulators on a computer 😛
boi…
I kinda want to try a nuzlocke but not on one of my copies. Maybe I could do an emulator. Do you have to download anything?
yeah
Anyways
I wasn’t going to… .until the incident that would have ended my locke happened….
Victory road, my starter (Who was level 99 cause I always used him more than anything else, over leveled but only he was) was the only thing alive
Rival Battle, the last battle in the road
I kill all his mons in one hit, beside one….
A bouffalant that lives on LITERALLY 1 HP WITHOUT A SASH, HEAD CHARGES ME AND KILLS ME WHILE KILLING HIMSELF
Your starter was level 99? Lol so you were over leveled. But that sounds very stressful. I couldn’t even beat Y nuzlocke after two attempts. I probably won’t get far in VW
Only the starter was because he had to take experience as everything else started dying left and right
And I was overleveled by around ten levels
Never
Ghost/Normal and Dark/Fairy are also really good typings.
Yeah those would be cool.
My first battle with new team
http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-gen7ou-504170028
What is that U-Turn Minior? Kind of defeats the purpose of setting up.
Minior’s now getting the boot it has been one hit KO’d twice now so I’ll find some one better
Shell Smash Minior w Acrobatics (no item obvs or White Herb), Stone Edge & EQ works well
Also Lum Berry Mimikyu is good as you can essentially set up a free SD then pair that with Play Rough, Shadow Claw & Shadow Sneak. Lum Berry is for statuses as they can go through Disguise
i dont like Formantis much
Didn’t like it from the beginning.
Neither do I
I’m also hunting it for a baby Nebby so its all worth it
Fomantis* Like faux mantis
I don’t like it either. Lurantis is nice though.
Lurantis is pretty cool
I like it actually. I really like Lurantis too but unfortunately I was misled by the Lurantis Trial. When I saw Lurantis on the trial thing, it looked huge, and I loved it, and I really wanted to use it. But was I saw life size I was so mad. Also Lurantis stats are so awful. I will use it battle one day, but Idk where to start
At least we have Tsareena

Were you really expecting anything from a pure grass type? They’re generally all bad. Also, I’ve heard defog will make it good.
Tries to regain battling confidence
Somehow a Gigalith survived a Life Orb Liquidation one match and Ash-Greninja’s bullshit the other
lol
Fuck you
Sorry I didn’t know you were actually that upset
Why wouldn’t I be upset
I HATE LOSING
Welp, it’s time for my journey to get a shiny Lurantis.
I feel like Cosmoem is the most pointless pokemon ever. It’s hardly in the story. They could’ve just gone cosmog into the title legend
That’s why Cosmoem was barely shown.
Then why does it exist
It’s a buffer zone between baby and beast, like the bug Pokemon’s interspecies and Salamanca’s ball form.
If you use a master ball on a UB will it break open and shatter your dreams?
This makes 5 losses in a row all because of Tapus and Necro
Almost the biggest comeback of my life
http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-gen7ou-504190059
Fuck my life, my team does not work against anything not native to Alola
9 losses I’m cutting myself because Showdown just had to let other Pokemon be in OU,
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/8b750867cca1df0582a48568275a92c3f2785eab1347bb68a0d22eccada79932.png dont
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL WITH THIS CONSTANT SENSE OF FAILURE
my only victory of the night was a forfeit by default
I would do something else like draw or watch youtube
that does not satisfy the ever gaping ho,e in my being that only the feel-goodness that victory and confidence bring
Now I just feel like biting a chunk out of my arm because I’m stupid enough to think a Alola Native team fairs well against the constant crap of OU
Well dont hurt yourself over it
But that’s what I do, I have literally nothing to feel good after losing
But with that being said
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7monotype-504201560
Please stop. You scare me so much Earthen seriously
Well I’m a fucking loser with absolutely no follow back when like this, no genuine happiness or other hobbies that aren’t mindless busywork
Only victory is what makes me feel good and that only happens in a blue moon
You are in just this self sustaining cycle of i cant do this because im miserable and im miserable so I dont want to do this. Like just start writing. Read a book, watch a new TV show or movie. Find a new hobby, just something because you can’t always win and you are always just miserable
None of those satisfy my needs, I haven’t felt true satisfaction in literally ever because the all consuming void of my life inches wider by the second
Because you never try anything. Thats the thing! You dont write you dont do anything! I dont know how else to tell you that! You are just going to stay angry and sad until you decide you want to fix it
Or just sue the petunias out of the Showdown moderators.
I would if I could
So many times I asked for a non-legends ladder
Hey Earthen, wanna hear something funny?
Cause of usage Kyurem Black and Keldeo are in UU right now.. Not even kidding
Stop being pink Fomantis.
I’m gon find that Formantis first 😛
I’m gonna hatch it first!
For anyone with a PS4, does anyone know if you can buy Shadow of the Colossus digitally? My brother just got one and I’ve wanted to play it for a while
You’ve wanted to murder innocent giant monsters for literally no reason for a while?
i saw two tsareenas on my two battles right now im so happy
I hope that in the sequel for Sun and Moon (Stars), the following happen:
– Cynthia plays a bigger role.
– Dexio and Sina return along with Sycamore.
– News about Lillie.
– Aether Foundation reforming, and turning themselves into the Global Pokemon Protectionist Agency (GPPA).
– New leader of the Aether Foundation; Gladion (has an altered design, hair smoother, wears white clothes, slightly happier).
– Dawn from the anime makes an appearance (game Dawn is silent)
– New battle thing called the Battle Islands, 6 unique islands of different leaders with challenges (Rock, Water, Grass, Fairy, Ice, Dark, Poison)
– Introduction of new Pokemon and Megas (~35 new Pokemon, 20 Megas)
– Probably won’t happen
-Probably won’t happen
-yep
-Probably won’t happen
-Probably won’t happen
-FOR SURE WONT HAPPEN
– lol no
Well, surely Cynthia would, I mean it would be super fun.
1. Nope, she would have this game
2. Maybe Dexio and JOHN SINA!! DOO DOO DOO DOOO!!! But not Sycamore
3. Referenced perhaps
4. Nah
5. DOUBT IT
6. About as likely as portal 3
And no for the last two
Also how the heck will catching Arceus work in Gen 4 remakes lol when you can just use your two lvl 100 Mystery Gift Arceuses on it.
woah its a shiny not really lollll
What’s the hunt for?
I’m 5 boxes into Rowlet.
Fomantis for @Mega_Azumarill:disqus
Oh, that’s nice.
I’m pulling an all nighter to hunt for Rowlet, I need to end it as soon as possible. I need to prevent this from becoming another turtwig at all costs.
Yep
Tea Time! Lusamine has the best team among villianous leaders, Cyrus comes close too
Can anyone spare a Prankster Sableye? Nature/Ball doesn’t matter; I only need the ability.
I can offer Love Ball Fomantis, Moon Ball Cubone, Love Ball Stufful, Love Ball Bounsweet, Friend Ball Beldum, or Moon or Love Ball Vulpix.
*edited, I meant spare, not share. Sorry for the confusion.
Burn them all
That’s the idea. 😉
no burn all the Sableye
A Pokemon of such a weak stature should not possess such game breaking abilities at priority
I know. I’m familiar with your hate for it. They’re evil, but I’ve got no problem using that evil myself.
I can’t right now, but I plan to hunt for one relatively soon. When I get one I can give you one if you haven’t gotten one already.
Thanks! I might get bored and search tomorrow, but I’ll keep your offer in mind. If I get one first would you like one?
That’d be great, thank you! I don’t know when I’d hunt if you don’t, it all depends on how cooperative these Rowlets are.
Whelp… Fomantis just struggled to death. The end
Rip in peace fake bug thing
Whelp.. no nebby for me ;-;
Now you can put something else in your bag, free space
🙁
it was weak and deserved to die
If anyone wants a 6 IV careful 4 EM
shinyRowlet, feel free to take them off my hands. I have quite a few lol.No thanks
Well, if you ever need one, just let me know. 🙂
i feel like punching something
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAPQyUoiJUs
I need more
these fan dubs made me puke
Most do to me as well, but I’m actually fine with this Guzma voice…
(Remember all the Undertale ones? Yeah, those were disgusting)
like what i liked some of those Undertale Shorts
I mean…. some we’re good… but some were disgusting… like I can’t flat out remember off the top of my head but there were some really bad ones…
So far I am done with coloration, lines, and the background for the Marshadow drawing. All I need to do now is details, so @SpectralSeraph expect it in the next few days for it to be finished!
😀 YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS!!!!
I hope you don’t mind the length it’s taking to make it, I’ve been pretty busy and have been trying to put in a lot of effort into this one. ?
It’s fine!! I’ll love it regardless im sure <3!!!
Why does it take so long for you to make one drawing? Just curious
As for this one, I’ve just been busy all week for Christmas and stuff, so I haven’t had enough time to work on it. Usually I doesn’t take this amount of time, typically about 3 days at the max.
To those who care, I have 21 of the 39 evolution lines in sun and moon bred and I am up to trading them
Anybody here have a specific Sun and Moon mon in mind?
