  1. Watching Vinesause Joel’s Earthbound streams when this happened. He had this beautiful little speech about Iwata’s passing. This was streamed right after that happened.

    IDK if any of you have seen his stuff, but he is a really cool and funny guy. He may seem like hes just goofy and makes a bunch of dick jokes but when he opens up, you see a whole different side of him and he is just so great

  2. Question: If I catch a Duskull in Platinum and teach it Sucker Punch via tutor, then breed it in Moon, can it’s offspring have it too? I’m asking so I don’t end up wasting my time. :/

  3. Playing Red and Blue makes me want a Pokémon spin off series where Mega Evolution and Z Moves don’t exist

    Like I prefer having them but having a simpler alternative is nice at some times

  4. Guys I’m gonna reprise my question just to get more for a vote what should my evil team be?

    They try to destroy the environment cause they don’t see its beauty they feel its not perfect so they try to control the Legendary Pokémon to efface the environment of the region

  7. Ooh new deadlock on whether Nintendo should stay in the console market or not.

    My personal answer? Yes, I fear that if they leave the console market the quality AND quantity of their games will decline because they wouldn’t need a bunch of good games to sell a system.

      • I mean the argument was basically that Sega did well after they abandoned the market and that SMR sold well, but the there’s a few issues with that line of thinking. For one, Sega is the perfect example of my fears for Nintendo. IMO, after they abandoned the console market the overall quality of their games declined, I mean just look at the recent Sonic games. And for SMR, sure it sold well-ish, but 1) they’re looking at the downloads, not the purchases. If we’re looking at the number of people who actually purchased the full game, it didn’t sell terribly well. And 2) it’s MOBILE!! Just because something sold relatively well on mobile doesn’t mean Nintendo games would sell well on other consoles. So sooooo many more people have a smartphone than have a console.

        I do think it’s possible that they’ll leave the market if the next few consoles sell poorly, but some of the arguments used were poor.

  8. so i need naming ideas
    this pokemon is a Normal/Ghost Pokemon who consists of a small white humanoid pokemon with very plain and simple features, a pointy head crest and elf ears 2 dots for eyes and a line for its mouth .__. stubby arms and pegs for legs (no toes) and a tiny tail
    But at its feet its shadow is on the ground with a similar build but missing the legs and the ears look like devil horns and the pointy head crest is bent and there’s a two evil eyes

    so far its
    Shilloutte
    Normal/Ghost
    The Shade Pokemon
    its ability is basically Parental Bond’s less annoying cousin called Shade Ally
    “The User’s Shadow attacks alongside”

    Shilloutte’s shadow is alive and thinks, it fights to protect its body for if the body is damaged it feels pain too

  9. I was really divided between Charizard and Giratina-O. In the end, I went with Charizard. Surprisingly, Lugia is winning, He’s my 3rd favorite pokémon overall but I didn’t think it was that popular.

  10. Another question because bored

    Make teams for each region: the Pokémon must of been introduced in the Gen that region first appeared in (regional variants count as the region the were introduced in, and Mega Evolutions count as the region their base was introduced in)
