The big confirmed news of the day is that Pokkén Tournament will be returning to the Pokémon World Championships 2017. It was noticeably absent from the schedule that was first announced for Worlds, but Japanese sources have confirmed that the fighting game will be returning again this year according to Serebii.
Various tuning tweaks are slated to go live for the arcade version in Japan on Tuesday, but the Wii U version remains noticeably behind. The console version even lacks playable characters that have been available to arcade players for months. Fans will hopefully see an update, but nothing official has been announced.
One interesting prospect raised by presence of Pokkén Tournament at Worlds is the possibility that it will be re-released for the new Nintendo Switch console. With Wii U production officially ended it wouldn’t necessarily make sense to promote a game for a dead console. It seems likely that the title will see a port which may include the features and updates that the Wii U version currently lacks. We’ll be keeping our eyes peeled for news on the matter!
FEATURED DISCUSSION: Poekmon [sic] gen 8 speculations
Yo, I just thought of an amazing Pokemon fusion:
Flygon + Complete Zygarde
Who needs megas when you have this cheap tactic to make weaker ground/dragon Pokemons stronger
Complete Flygarde
TFW you realize Incineroar won’t get sucker punch because it’s in the same egg group as a ton of mons who do and doesn’t get it, despite them getting it
So that’s why Incineroar sucks at punching
It also sucks at taking them
I feel like it makes sense with its wrestling and sinister descriptions, but, you know, whatever. Leave the sucker punchin’ to honchy I guess
And wormadam who has nothing remotely resembling an arm or a hand
it’s head penis thing
That’s not punching
No no no.. I REFUSE to believe that
wait are you talking about Sucker punch? or Knock Off
Sucker punch…. wormadam gets fucking sucker punch
And skitty :3
At least it has actual limbs
oh then it literally means it does any kind of attack
Sucker Punch isn’t a literal Punch it just a surprise attack
and i’m right because no boost because of iron fist
Than how tf does Wormadam use it still….. that thing isn’t moving for shit
How does it get suckerpunch lmao
It just does… cause fuck logic XD
it’s hanging there, you pay no mind, then WHAM
it flings itself at you and a unexpected burst of speed
Wormadam broke character
you do realize their not immobile
Still slow and dumb
Sucker Punch means surprise attack in Japanese….. So you don’t need to have arms
But still… wormadam…
who honestly cares, hell heatmor has a signature move i’d kill to be more common
Everyone would
Moral of the story: Fuck wormadam
worst pokemon ever…next to Simisear
Out of the three monkeys, simisage is probably the only decent one
I prefer Simipour
There is litearlly no way to argue against this
totes, that pompadour
Yes
Who, btw, is actually the least popular
Pokemon period
What is that?
HEAT LASH
Fire lash*
I was looking in the wrong generation. That’s a really random addition honestly.
True
i rather it just have knock off, granted Darkest Lariat would be useful in stopping Sigilyph’s cosmic power
That moment you realize a pokemon you like is trash so you make a fursona out of it and teach people that the competitive scene is garbage and tell people about fury cutter venasaurs, all with the grace of a six year old
Zoroark is still rad though
True true
But that wasn’t the point, the meme was
My
relationshipdeal with Midnight Lycanroc in a nutshellOh god XD
WORMADAM GETS QUIVER DANCE GAIS
ur profile pic makes that comment better
It’s got to XD
SURPRISE!!!
that’s the reason wormadam gets sucker Punch (surprise attack) XD
That is actually the best reason I’ve heard
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7oususpecttest-532535472
tell me how much of an idiot I am
Don’t even need to watch the video to do that.
Listen here, you little shit
hehe :3
that’s not nice,
you gotta mock her on several levels
That’s your job
i’m on break can’t you get somebody from lower management to do that, Johnson owes me one
You are lower management to me
you cheeky
I’m feeling savage today
just you wait bionic boy, i’ll get some sugar and caffeine in me later and tear you several new ones
Can someone just insult me already?
Dumb Ho

dumb ho
dumbo
i honestly don’t care you puke stained spawn of a bloody rag,
But my puns boi
Bite me
No thanks, too much salt
FUCK YOU FOR BEING TO FUCKING NICE!!
You’re far too hard to insult without making me feel guilty
too*
My bad
But seriously.. you’re two nice
;3
Aww you’re so sweet, but I’m going to have to fire you if you can’t insult me
uMMMM……. You hate Toucannon so you’re an abomination to the rainforest?
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/77718927b0edbe75a41102a617691280aec19464fa8aaa69684d57ceaa88fbe7.gif
Omg Toucannon, I love Toucannon.
This is the biggest insult on the site
You know you love it
I know I love hating it
Love Hating that you love it
Love Hating that I Love Pikipek but Hate Toucannon
Nah
Why did they ruin Pikipek…
They made it better
Let’s be real, the only bad thing about that line is trumbeak
Indeed
I do tooo
We should make it the new website mascot
Then if you roll over it, it changes to my tears
CAN WE
I hope we can
I await it
Fuck it I’ll fire you both
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA
hey Ultron get a load of this,
a grunt firing us
I can commune with ghosts
Plus, I made you refer to yourself and Ultron as a unit, therefore, you guys are now a shipping by internet standards
Checkmate, as they say “Biyotch”
you kidding i’m clearly ranked higher than you both
You used the word “us”
Watch your diction
Eartron is the shipping name
Hilarious
I’m kind of the head honcho here.
http://www.smogon.com/smog/issue19/featuredrumon_honchkrow.png
you may be the honcho
But I’m the King
You’re more like that drunk ground soldier that I permit to stay here just to humor myself
Literally, being dirt is the position
excuse me?
I’m The mighty Earthen, the violent and savage Warlord, conqueror of lives and bringer of pain!
Nobody is my equal and all are lesser!
My very presence shakes the Earth!
The only thing shaking is some scientist knowing his failed experiment got lose
The same thing could be said about Doomsday, where is he now?
Certainly not in real life, that’s for sure
Being mistaken for this

oh please a failed experiment is always code for badass mega super creature who broke free and is roaming around unchecked
violently destroying everything
That’s a cliched plotline, do better
Grade: F for FUCKING TERRIBLE
oh great you’re back
I am indeed
what happened to your little hiatus
It’s seraph you dumbass
well how am i honestly supposed to know
Just change it back to Seraph and stop with this username spree
Nah
well your dead to me, have fun in hell
Wasn’t I already?
The real issue I had was the turn one signal beam
That was probably a misclick on their part
Doubt it
Team rocket’s Mimikyu used curse!
Mimikyu: F**king yellow son of a b*tch mouse, I’ll f**king kill everyone you love
It’s super effective
actually Jessie’s Mimikyu flat out refuses to fight unless Pikachu is the opponent
I know, the mouse is pikachu
Ow the (Stone) edge
In japan it’s called “edgy rock”
What if this is the season Team Rocket gives up on hunting pikachu because Jessie learns that Mimikyu is enough for her
PLEASE
…and then mimikyu leaves her to be with ash
Oh god
That would be the saltiest thing to ever happen in the world
Seriously
well unless Mimikyu straight up murders it
And wears its skin
All I want is an animation of a dancing Goomy using rain dance
That’s the closest thing I could do

Awwwwwww *shivers* that’s my favorite rain noise
I never met someone who doesn’t like that noise

Out of all curiosity
How much do you vary the bond between you and your starter?
depends on the pokemon
I’ve shown the most bonding between my Emboar and Chesnaught
but i’ve also feel something with Infernape and Torterra and Incineroar
Chesnaught is so correct it’s actually insane
The bond between me and my starters are comparable to the bond between bonding guy and the main character in X&Y
Huh…….
ITS BONDING TIME
/╲/╭( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)╮/╱
(Licks lips)
(licks lips whit more intensity and breaths heavily)
https://i.makeagif.com/media/7-19-2015/GBWld8.gif
Depends on when.
Until mid generation5 I cared for the start so much that I barely let it leave my party. Also I made sure it was always the highest level. Now I dont really care what happens post game
Huh….
Depends. I felt nothing for the gen 5&6 starters. Idk, starters are never really that important to me. I think it’s more fun not to use them
It honestly depends on the starter for me
I feel the strongest connection to gen 4 starters, I usually never pass them up
I feel that to gen 3, and half of gen 7
And one from each other gen besides 2 and 5
Liquid voice makes zero sense to me…. all I can see is a Primarina vomiting up musical water vomit

Wait…it IS fire. HELP
Tfw you realize your fangame has created Whitney’s miltank but worse
Seraph is an evil mastermind confirmed
It basically has an ability making the already strong move it has do more each turn, only for that same move to be a recovery move

Told you I’d do it
damn i’ve been trying for years and nothing
Somebody help, Seraph has just become a bird
It’s a pun
Bourgeois
Bourgeese
The pronunciation
wait i thought you was Fairy
(Facepalm)
You suddenly changing your username for something random made me remember certain user 😐
MAybe
Btw nice pun lol
Thanks! 😀
The only nice thing about that pun is that it’s over
It’s not, not in the slightest
Idk if I’m missing something, but the “geois” part of bourgeois is not pronounced like geese…?
Just go with it
I’m pretty sure the end parts rhymes or I’ve been saying it wrong
The end is pronounced like “wah”
The best I can do to show how to pronounce the entire word is “Boodge-Wah”
I thought it was pronounced
Boodge-wah-eese
That’s bourgeoisie. One’s an adjective, the other a noun. Kind of stupid but w/e
Craaaap
HOLY HELL I NEVER EVEN SAW THIS ADORABLE LITTLE GIF BEFORE!

hey earthen did u see the Deluxe collector edition guide of BotW
Earthen Warrior a few seconds ago
feh I already bought it feh feh
LOOK AT IT THO
http://www.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/zeldabreathwildguideclear656x656_thumb.jpg
I bought the collectors edition so there’s a even better one….
yes theres a better one, and the collector edition price dropped to $23
#&@$?$&@&$$?$&@@@@@!!!!!!!!!!!! OK I AM DONE, STOP FUCKING WITH ME NINTENDO I AM A LOYAL DEVOTED FAN SINCE BIRTH AND I BUY YOUR MASTERPIECES WITH A SMILE BUT STOP MAKING MORE AND BETTER STUFF AFTER I BUY THEM
You do a terrible Earthen impression
You were hardly angry and at no time did you try to disembowel somebody with a pizza cutter
*smacks*
bite me
Double erotic comments!?
If you’re into that
Ehh I like it rough, but finding a gal who actually can wrestle a bear is the real battle
If you wrestled a bear then you would be dead in a second. It would drag your endtrails half a mile to feed them to its cubs while wearing your skin as a little bear hat
I wrestled a bear once… I snapped it’s neck at the end
Some original material you floofy haired maguffin
Eat some dirt
Ok then do a Star impression
*Clears throat*
*Grabs a mic*
“Lesbian”
*Puts mic away and walks off stage*
….
shit… if you changed your profile to match mine literally no one would be able to tell us apart.
Kinda a low blow Imo
Kinda fits someone who likes ground though, being that the ground is the lowest you can go
I never would insult anyone’s sexuality
it’s fine, fam
he wasn’t insulting my sexuality its all good :3
Oh….
Welp…
Defensive mode Seraph is disengaged
(Wait who would marry me anyways? I’m trash)
Some crappy Pokemon jokes:
Poke-puns:
“I can”t Bayleef it’s not butter!”
“It’s time to SEEL the deal”
“How did I draw Articuno so well? Simple, I Moltres’d it from a template.”
“I swatted the VIbrava away, now it’s flyGONE
“Don’t copy me! I’ll Mimikyu!”
Abilities/Natures:
“Don’t be so modest! Your attack is dropping!”
“So quick to get scared, he’s a little timid”
“The Brave ones can be a little slow in the head”
Buzzwole off
Too easy
eat a diglett
This is part of the show where Earthen murders Seraph
But it’s not a show
And I’m already dead
Pokejungle AMusement park:
Enjoy the Earthen “Fehris Wheel”
The “Storm among the Stars” roller coaster
and the
“Spooky Spectre” haunted house
My ride is just a loop with no hills or anything and it is just me on the loud speaker ranting about how poorly written Lapis Lazuli is or how frustrating competitive battling is or what ever else I’m all salty about
downward part of the loop is a rant on why you hate toucannon
You think lapis is poorly written? She just needs more attention and growth
5.00$ for a ticket on the Storm among the Stars
Govnah’s Circus show
Can ya punify that?
Govnado whirl or twirl
Pretty much XD
MY NAME ISN’T GOOD ENOUGH YOU KNOW
YALL ARE STUPID…
*slams door*
That;s beautiful though
Volcarona’s Fiery Carousel!
Hmmm
D:
Can ya punify it too? I’m curious
Bumper Caronas!
xD
YES XD
Ooh I remeber the idea I had a while ago. No idea for the name, but you start off in an egg and close to the ground, but you end up soaring around high in the sky. A coaster based on the evo cycle of a Togekiss.
Hmmmmm… we gotta get a name
That’s cool though
Ithsme world
With all stupidity aside
Govnor front and center
Give me a link to that new collectors edition
its not available yet
Stupidity can’t be pushed aside. You just gotta sludge through it
You need some butter and a rolling pin too
No buying things
feh
This does not concern you, I want to see if I can cancel my order and get the bigger one
Bigger is always better they always say ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Us ghosts don’t worry bout such humanly things

Exactly
(I can’t find the exact pic )
But it had a caption saying “when people ask about my date” a quote from Steven universe and it said “Oh boy, how big was she”
But wasn’t the guy who said that a greedy misogynistic asshole?

But regardless I like my ladies big

Lol why are we all harassing Earthen now?
Harassing Earthen? I’m just stating the truth
Another Valentine Love Question
What pokemon design do you love, but it sucks competitively? Vice versa
What pokemon do you love to use online, but it is bad looking?
1. Fucking Golisopod….
2. I like every mon I use
Furret Furret Furret Furret FURETT
So cuuuuuuuttte but I have tried and failed to use it competitively for two years
Furret is adorable, and I shall try and make it work!
Siiiigh Rhyperior is my mirror image
Big, heavy, physical strong, headstrong and full of flaws but those flaws get in the way of victory
And……ughhhh I truly hate to say this Slurpuff, I run it in my OU team as a secret weapon and I hate myself because of it
But Slurpuff is so adorable, it’s my favorite fairy type
Feh it’s just lucky it has access to one of the tankiest buffs in the game, unburden and a way to deal more damage, only two three things give it trouble well Four since Salazzle is a thing
I used to use the belly drum set. I remember you were the first victim to it. BAck when Fairy was my favorite type. XY days, good times. I wish people battled like they used to
Screw that cookie cutter set I’m talking about a dual tank that outspeeds anything and sucks health out of those unprepared
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-401686149
Mine was a dual tank too. But I just used play rough instead of draining kiss
Well regardless this thing is my set and mine alone
SO HE ADMITS IT’S TRASH 😀
I’ve said countless times that Rhyperior cannot survive in competitive so can it
Trash can it ? Like Where it belongs?
Fuck you
Hey, you insult ghosts, so I insult this
Since when
Well, you don’t like them, and you take pleasure in slaughtering their montype so…. that’s enough for me
I slaughter them because you all spam Will-o-wisp
Not all of us, like Marshadows, Gengars, Decidueye
Gengar is still lethal but now it can’t weasel out of Earthquake anymore
Not all ghosts need levitate
Gengar did
Eh, look at mega gar
It was so freaking broken
Stupid high speed and special attack and shadow tag
Yep! It makes my race proud!
idk if ghosts are really a race
We are one
I love Aurorus design, it’s so cool and the shiny is probably my top ten shinies. It’s such a cool pokemon! But competitively it’s actually trash. The million weaknesses with horrible defenses and offenses. It’s a disgrace.
Usually I like all the pokemon I use design (There are very few pokemon designs I dont like), but I really dislike LandoT design. The white rock on its head and the mustache is just so hideous to me. But it’s so good competitively I use it rarely but I use it.
Lando t is garbage as a design
How to make a trash pokemon in 5 steps
1. Look at a house hold appliance
2. Instead of giving it a creative story like Chandelure, settle on doing something really stupid, like covering it in ice
3. Make it ice or rock type
4. Give it absolute trash stats besides physical ones
5. Give it no recovery
(additional option: Choose the name Avalugg)
Avalug gets recover
Wait it does? Crap….
I feel stupid now
Eh… it’s still trash
Just stop
It also can have Ice Body, which is by no means brilliant but is a form of recovery.
Indeed
Btw I’m online now if you want ‘trio.
Okay! Whaddya want in return?
Don’t know, any apricorn ball Pokemon? If not maybe a cap or something.
Sure! I’ll get ya somethin
OK just let me know when you’re in plaza, I think I have you added still.
Okay!
Actually, is there a competitive 7th gen mon you want?
Not really, I can breed most anything myself.
Dangit
Okay, I’ll just whip something up and I’ll be on momentarily!
HerE!
My bad, heading there now.
Thanks, are you sure you don’t need the Fast Ball?
I’m sure!
Yeah it still sucks
Avalugg
Aka: Ice and easy to kill
Hey cascoon can I have the link to that survey from earlier today? I saw it but didn’t have time to take it yet.
