  1. Finally something Pokémon-related to discuss! It’s interesting that they’re doing this now, since it’s the only undiscovered Mythical remaining in Sun and Moon. Since they did it this way and haven’t announced distribution, this could mean a couple things: either it will come only to Sun and Moon a few months from now (which would seem way too soon to me), or it’s coming to Stars on its release day (just like Magearna).

  3. Guys, this could be the first sign that a game reveal is coming within the next few weeks, which is right on schedule anyway. Don’t forget that they revealed Magearna on February 15 and Sun and Moon on February 27.

    • That’s an interesting thought. I personally see them revealing a game in early May, like ORAS. I think we’ll see a direct within the next two weeks and Pokemon will likely be after, since they usually do their own thing. Then that way it’ll be ready for E3.

      • I was expecting that as well but this really pushes things forward for me. I’m thinking April is almost locked in now. The question just remains: will it come to Switch? And is there any chance that it’s D/P remakes this year instead of next year? (Think of what they did with Volcanion).

        Reply
        • Brief me on Volcanion again.

          And we have to remember, they literally just revealed their last mythical.

          My personal answers: while I really want switch, I’m betting 3DS sadly, and I think they’ll be more Alola

          Reply
          • Actually I think it was Hoopa instead of Volcanion back in 2014. I dunno, maybe 2015, but they released it to both ORAS and XY. So I’m saying that Marshadow could come to DP and SM potentially, considering it is the last mythical.

      • Nope, February 2016 Corocoro. Made us all pretty certain that Gen 7 was coming instead of Pokémon Z. I think the timing of this reveal should speak for itself.

        Reply
    • Or it’s just an event release. It does not imply a new game. When Hoopa was revealed, we didn’t get a new game

      Reply
      • Still a bit odd they’ve revealed both event legendaries within 6 months of the game, but it took them 3 years to give us the three from kaloser

        Reply
      • Except this is the final Mythical and it’s kind of a big deal for that reason. Also, I feel like they would have just announced the details now if that were the case. I’m probably wrong but it’s a possibility. I’m just going off the fact that they deliberately revealed Magearna in February instead of January/March. Beginning of April is kind of random.

        Reply
        • Honestly, I was not expecting this to be revealed until at least next year. And was definitely not expecting it to be in this movie

          Reply
          • I feel the same way, that’s another reason why I think this is so significant. Magearna was released less than 4 months ago! This is unprecedented. They want to push it out this year for some reason or another.

  4. This ovie iw getting weirder by the minute. With all these new characters and changes to Ash’s origin story I’m starting to think there is a plot to this that we aren’t expecting. Maybe this isn’t actually an origin story and it’s in the normal time line, but we’re missing a major plot point. Maybe Ash gets sent back in time or sent to a different dimension and it’s up to Marshadow to get him home. Either way I’m starting to think there’s something more to this than meets the eye. On top of all that with them having Marshadow in the movie that gets me wondering. What in the world are they gonna do for the other potential gen 7 movies? We got all the New Pokemon revealed at this point. Sure the could do an Ultra beast movie, but I get the feeling they’d want to have them in the anime more so than in a movie. It really makes you think that maybe they have something special up their sleeves for the next game. Maybe Stars is more significant that we all think!

    Reply
    • They’ll probably do some huge Ultra Beast vs. Solgaleo/Lunala movie with Necrozma as the main feature. I suppose that it’s possible for them to sneak a Gen 8 Pokémon into that one as well (as insane as that sounds), otherwise it would be in the Diamond/Pearl movie.

      Reply
      • I’m not too concerned about them using the UB’s, SM legends, and Necrozma for movies. the real interesting point about them having now revealed ALL of the gen 7 Pokemon is that they usually keep a few in their back pockets (not joking here tho I get it lol) It makes sense for them to use those Pokemon, but it’s just very odd that they’re all known prior to their presumed movies. Usually we don’t (or at least aren’t supposed to) know about the mythical Pokemon and that gives the generations some small amounts of longevity. This time around they’d be making movies without any huge announcement. something is definitely up here. Otherwise it would have been wiser to keep Marshadow for another movie and have the UB’s not so commonly known about. They’ll need something up their sleeves to keep us wanting more otherwise the movies that follow this one will have no real draw. Just a very interesting situation they’ve put themselves in is all lol.

        Reply
        • For all intents and purposes, Marshadow should have been in next year’s movie. Everyone thought that this movie would just be some kind of tide-over 20th anniversary movie for nostalgia freaks, but no, it’s not. So it seems pretty clear to me that they intend to do a Marshadow + Stars double feature this year. I mean, they had both Munchlax and Magearna for Sun and Moon…they need something! They already pulled the Sinnoh card!

          Reply
          • Exactly. I will say that whether it’s a normal 3rd game or a mix between a 3rd game and DP remakes doesn’t matter. We’re definitely getting a new game this year lol

    • The possibilities are numerous and at this point this could mean so many things! I’m gonna say that they’re likely going to be doing something both with this movie and with the games that we haven’t been expecting lol

      Reply
  5. I honestly think this is the best thing they could have done. If it was just a regular rehash of Ash’s first journey then it would be kind of boring. This will at the very least keep people guessing lol

    Reply
  6. Not sure how I feel about the two new companions. (I wish she didn’t have Piplup honestly since Dawn had one) but Cross and Incineroar look great so far

    Reply
  7. So it seems he has new companions. Kinda wish they gave them different pokemon than a piplup, but piplup is cool. This movie still looks nice. I changed my mind maybe this will be a good Pokemon movie, unlike the last like 6. I actually want to watch it. also it looks like Ash is rebattling Erika (Look like tangela vines) maybe the place doesnt burn down.
    Verdict: Interested, and I havent been interested in a pokemon movie in a LONG time.
    Questions:
    Why is there a random Aerodactyl flying?
    Ash why arent you wearing your pink rubber gloves to protect yourself?
    Why Ash’s Hat design is different than original?
    No reference to MArshadow?
    The design of everyone is XY EXCEPT Team Rocket design is SM. Why?
    Ho-Oh do you have a thing for Ash or something?

  8. Yo I’m back people. Hopefully a new game comes along with this announcement. But this movie looks really good (besides the fact that Brock and Misty aren’t in it.

  9. Alright, this whole event has convinced me. When I feel like I’ve had my fill of Breath of the Wild (for now) I’m going to play through the Moon file that I started back in February or something. I never even picked my starter…which will be…POPPLIO!

  10. Interesting note, they show pikachu fighting something with purple tentacles but don’t show what… I wonder what it is

    Reply
  11. I’m with @IntimidatingWurmple:disqus. This is legitimately a Pokemon movie that’s made me very interested as opposed to the last 3 (Hoopa was semi-hype, though). Like the amount of plot-twists in the trailer is brilliantly good, and I’m very eager for how this will turn out.

    Reply
  12. Super hyped for this new movie! It’s probably gonna be my favorite! <3
    Expect new info coming out tomorrow or so! I assume it will!

  13. Just saw Joe Merrick(Serebii) point out how suspicious it is that Ash’s two new friends have Lucario and Piplup. I can’t say I like DP, but if they fix it and make it in a remake or even better as a cross over story with the Alola region I won’t complain lol

    Reply
    • I’m going to cry for real when those games are announced. One of the most important full-circle moments of my life, since I still remember Diamond and Pearl’s importance to me so vividly. The whole experience will be emotional.

      Reply
      • I was happy for ORAS when they were revealed, but, like what you said, DP was everything as a kid, and to see it redone (potentially) will cause me to feel immense nostalgia.

        Reply
        • Hoenn was basically before my time. I couldn’t get the full impact of it because Emerald was my first Pokémon game at a young age, so I missed Ruby and Sapphire and all of that hype. Diamond and Pearl was where it really began, in mid-late elementary school.

          Reply
          • Yeah same, DP was so much fun: the countless wifi battles, exploring a huge and vast region that feels lifelike, and home to some of my favorite Pokemon of all time.

  14. As much as I am for these new characters. What’s up with their hair. They all dont fit Pokemon. idk how to explain it, they just look weird

    Reply
  15. : The characters that travel with Ash in this movie are Souji and his partner Lucario, Makoto and her partner Piplup and the opposing trainer is called Cross who has Incineroar. The old man is called Bonji and he has been hunting Ho-Oh for a long time. He wrote a book about Ho-Oh

  16. There is a fucking character bio for Marshadow on the japanese site but it’s in japanese and I can’t figure it out and UHKJUOHKJUIHKJJ

  17. Ok one more criticism of the the Post Hoenn Pokemon anime intros and then I’m going to bed. I think that it’s around after the song Battle Cry that they stopped writing the songs to be about battling. after Battle Cry it all became about either some cheesy gush that made yo feel like the characters had no drive in what they were doing or entirely about having to save the world. and some shit. all I want is a kid ass intro that talks about Ash battling his heart out and wanting to be the very best. While I can’t say the first DP anime intro is the best ever, it definitely covers what I want in Pokemon intro lyrics. Enough of the mushy stuff and get back to your roots Pokemon anime!! lol

  18. “And thus, Pikachu and Satoshi, who set off on his journey to become the world’s greatest Pokémon Master, end up meeting the Trainers Makoto and Soji on their way before getting told a legend concerning Houou.
    “Those who, guided by the Rainbow Feather, meet with Houou, shall become the Heroes of the Rainbow.”
    Satoshi and the others end up getting guided by Marshadow, a mysterious Pokémon that had been lurking in Satoshi’s shadow without anyone realizing, and make their way to Mount Tensei, where Houou lives, but a strong enemy appears before them. Will the duo manage to reach Houou?! In order for them to fulfill the promise they swore on the day the departed, the two of them now begin an adventure that will last until they become “true partners”!

    WHo’s the strong enemy…. and Marshadow is a guide?

  20. So I was thinking about Gen 8 again and I found this article about the significance of colors in Chinese color. Interestingly, each color has a mythical creature tied to it, which would be perfect for Pokemon designs. There are five of them for New Yang, Full Yang, Yin/Yang balance, New Yin, and Full Yin. I think the Full Yin and Full Yang would probably be perfect for box legendaries, a Fire/Ghost “vermilion bird” and a Dark/Ice “black tortoise”. I wouldn’t be shocked if this is what Game Freak were considering.
    EDIT: forgot the article.

  21. Apparently this is the full plot synopsis
    “To all Pokémon fans: This is the story of the duo’s “meeting” and “promise”. This is the creation of the 20th anniversary movie! Pocket Monsters, or “Pokémon” for short: Mysterious lifeforms that hide many secrets. There are still many things we don’t know about their ecology. Even today, Pokémon Trainers continue their adventures with the aim of encountering Pokémon never before seen…
    Ash, a boy living in Pallet Town, greeted the morning of his 10th birthday, the day he could become qualified to become a Pokémon Trainer. Ash’s heart was filled with a desire for Pokémon he has never seen before and a world he has never seen before, but while he was meant to be given a Pokémon that would become his partner at the Oak Laboratories, he ended up severely oversleeping, and all that was left for him was a single Pikachu, a Pokémon that did not get attached to humans. “Do you hate me? I like you!” Even though the two were at odds with one another, their friendship deepened little by little, and as they looked up at the legendary Pokémon Ho-Oh that flew through the sky on the day they set off, Ash and Pikachu swore an oath as they held one of its Rainbow Wings: “Let’s go meet it together one day!” And thus, Pikachu and Ash, who set off on his journey to become the world’s greatest Pokémon Master, end up meeting the Trainers Makoto and Soji on their way before getting told a legend concerning Ho-Oh.
    “Those who, guided by the Rainbow Wing, meet with Ho-Oh, shall become the Heroes of the Rainbow.” Ash and the others end up getting guided by Marshadow, a mysterious Pokémon that had been lurking in Ash’s shadow without anyone realizing, and make their way to Mount Tensei, where Ho-Oh lives, but a strong enemy appears before them. Will the duo manage to reach Ho-Oh?! In order for them to fulfill the promise they swore on the day the departed, the two of them now begin an adventure that will last until they become “true partners”!”

    Perhaps that Pokemon Rainbow name had relevance

  22. speaking of movie wtf is it a reboot a retell a story arc a dream cause where the heck do those other people show up at in the show I’m so confused

    Reply
  23. I just noticed something. The font used in this trailer is different than the one used in every single Sun and Moon trailer ever released. It could easily be a gimmick for Marshadow, but they didn’t change it for Magearna as I mentioned. Am I overthinking this?

    Reply
  24. Also, it says “Game footage is not final” under the Marshadow gameplay. That must be a simple mistake, right?

  25. I’m here just to collect genwunners tears, they can’t say ‘back in my days’ with this trailer now. Kudos to Gamefreak and Pokemon company for defying expectations

  26. Woah :0

    Brock and Misty aren’t in this movie Wich is sad, these new Ash companions have Sinnoh mons and I’m glad that this isn’t the first episode being told again Wich makes this movies quite interesting

    ALSO MARSHADOW HYPE!!!!!! 😀 I CAN’T WAIT TO FINALLY HAVE MY CHILD :’D

  27. That old guy is so obviously Red, which makes the suggestion that Ash & Red exist in the same universe very plausible imo. Am very intrigued by this, for more than just obvious reasons.

    Reply
  28. Really confused about this though.
    I thought it was supposed to be a retelling.
    But in the end I guess it’s. Just a one off movie which won’t mean anything in the end

    Reply
  29. Also those new companions of Ash both have gen 4 Pokemon, are guy and girl as well. Could argue they are the protagonists for the Sinnoh remakes

    Reply
    • It’s also the choice of Gen IV Pokemon, too. Piplup was Gen IV’s cute starter (and the one that kicked the anime trend of a comic relief starter that doesn’t evolve and has the same general body type; and even then its evolutions showed up a decent amount as well) and Lucario was the face of Gen IV, representing it in movies, Pokken, even Smash!

  31. I know I’m late, but I watched the episodes and Here’s my prediction of Ash’s final team:
    Pikachu
    Decidueye/Rowlet that doesn’t wanna evolve
    Incineroar
    Lycanroc Midday
    Golisopod
    Kommo-o

  32. Oh and also pokemon I think Ash’s companions will get:
    Kiawe: Alolan Marowak
    Lana: Wishiwashi nad Araquanid
    Mallow: Shiinotic and Dhelmise
    Sophocles: Vikavolt and Alolan Golem
    Lilly: Minior, Oranguru and Drampa

    Reply
    • Bleghhheghhhh if anything is going to be caught its
      The Alolan Marowak is kinda squandered for Kiawe so I don’t see him catching anything anytime soon
      Lana hasn’t done anything in like forever and might get the shrimpiest weakest Wishiwashi some time but I doubt an Araquanid
      Mallow would NEVER get a Dhelmise she’ll get a Lurantis at SOME point
      Sophecles again has very little reason to add to his party but I personally want to see him get an Alolan Geodude

      And Lilly has a long ways to go before thy start letting her catch stuff

      Half the main characters have little reason to catch stuff since they’re confined to the same place and the episode plot

      Reply
      • Plus with six ‘main’ characters having them all catch a decent amount of Pokemon is going to lead to terrible development

        I’d rather Lana and Mallow evolve their Pokemon and maybe get one more each, whereas Sophy and Kiawe could get more because their current pokemon don’t evolve at all

        Alolem matches Sophy too much for him not to get it tbh

        Reply
    • Hmm
      Kiawe getting Marowak I could see but much farther down the Road

      Lana Wishiwashi as a maybe, but only a Dewpider that doesn’t evolve seems more likely to me

      Mallow has not a chance with Dhelmise but Lurantis and Shiinotic (or Fomantis and Morelull) are pretty likely

      Sophacles has good shot at A.Geodude, but Vikavolt is maybe a bit deeper in the season before that

      Lillie won’t get more till waaaay far down the road, but Drampa has some chance and maybe *cough* Nebby *cough*

  33. If GF were to add new types (which I doubt tbh, adjusting the current types to balance them could easily be done) what type(s) do you think they’d add?

    Reply
        • I ain’t no dang hipster
          Fairy and Psychic are basically Light Magic and Cosmic
          And Sound sounds good on paper (absolutely no pun intended) but you can’t have a being of pure sound it’s just like flying and needs something to pair it with

          Reply
          • Because Sound the type doesn’t exist and when it boils down its always been a Pokemon revolving around sound

          • I don’t think that a sound type needs to be literal sounds, It’s only a being that can control sound. Just look at Alola Marowak, it’s not a walking flame but still a fire type because it can control fire.

          • But alola forms aren’t central to the point? He just gave an example of a pokemon that isn’t literally its own element, but utilises it

          • Yeah cause almost all Fire types aren’t walking flames, Not all Water types are Fish or Moving Water, not Electric types are moving Thunderbolts and not all rock types are lumbering rocks

          • It’s Bug/Electric so it’s a bug with electricity

            But you really can’t mince words with this, some creatures embody their element but some just don’t

            Unless you have a living wave or sound or a wind elemental Sound and Flying need a pairing to justify it

          • Except it literally says that nowhere and gf can do what they want so what your saying is speculative at best

          • Well show me where that doesn’t occur
            Nearly all flying types are secondary except for Tornadus and Noibat’s line because they’re a wind elemental and the theory of the sound based flying

          • What I’m saying is there is no set rules, GF just hasn’t made that much pure or primary flyings and haven’t told us why

            You’re basing their arguments on fragility concepts GF can easily break (people used to argue we’d never get secondary normals, for example, because it ‘doesn’t make sense to have being normal as your secondary aspect’)

          • Then explain why my speculation doesn’t make sense, I’m basing it on a believable logic that flying cannot exist on its own unless it is a being or pure wind or flight

            Until Gamefreak actually shakes up the formula then I’m proven wrong by justified reason but until then ask yourself how many pure or primary flying types did we get this gen and tell me they don’t stick to a formula

          • Earthen you’re twisting the argument to your own end, I literally just said that saying flying has to be paired isn’t true and it’s already been disproven

            I never said that pure flyings don’t have to be anything but aid elementals

            Didn’t say we’ll get tons more of them

            I just said that they have shown that flying can go unpaired, because your initial statement was literally just saying that flying had to be paired, not that it can only be unpaired if it was an air elemental.

            Adieu

          • There is a a pure flying tho, and pure flying as indicated by tornadus is to have control over, or to be of the air. Because boiling it down, flying is called such because it covers things that fly and the air element. A pure or primary flying is an air elemental, a secondary flying is a thing that flies or has air manipulation

            Fairy does cover light magic to a degree, and makes sense because it’s its a part of fairy mythology. Unless you mean literal ‘light’ and not the alignment of the magic, in which case, no. Light, like sound, is dispersed throughout the types.

            Psychic covering comic makes little sense because they have far less in common than say, Ground and Rock or Water and Ice. Psychic powers and the cosmos are related, but if minerals and what they’re found in and two different states of water can be separate types, I don’t see why cosmic and Psychic can’t be

          • I already knew that about Flying types, that’s why nearly every flying type is its secondary type except Tornadus for being an air elemental

            And light as a type dips in and out of the holy or literal light conception, along with Cosmic just being a glorified Psychic type only given to extraterrestrial Pokemon (i.e. Solrock, Lunatone, Jirachi and Deoxys which are all psychic types)

          • Then why did you say flying ‘has to be paired’? It clearly doesn’t, it can be a stand alone.

            The thing is tho, comic could be so much more. It’s not fair to just stick it with Psychic when we can have ideas such as using celestial objects to attack or to use the power of the cosmos to add effects. I don’t really see why it should just be stuck in with another type when it fits just as well, it’d be like making Geodude pure Ground, or Diancie Ground/Fairy. It’s unnecessary compression that most rpgs don’t bother with, so why expand some concepts and compress others?

          • Because 98.99999 of the flying type popular are creatures that can fly with the exception of Tornadus and Noibat’s line to a degree
            Every flying type always has flying as a secondary type except one Tornadus being a wind elemental and Noibat’s line being the only primarily Flying type ever probably due to the reason it has more in common with sound waves then being a dragon

            And as for the cosmic it just literally is psychic, it’s like trying to sound authentic and new when it’s really the same mechanics of a psychic using bizzare otherworldly forces to damage to do stuff

            Same thing why Rock and Ground are different because not every land dwelling creature is a rock, it’s like saying Donphan or Sandslash is a rock when clearly they’re not

          • Yes, but you’re still wrong. It has been paired, it’s just not been paired frequently. So your initial statement is false.

            Except I was referring to Rock-type as Ground and not the other way round, because rock is the extension of ground and not the other way round. Rocks are just minerals *in the ground* and literally every other media bundles the two together. Seeing them split is highly uncommon, unlike the water/ice split which tends to be around a 50/50 in media.

            Saying that ‘psychic is all the otherworldly bull’ is just compressing so much though. At its core, and for the first two Gens, it’s just psychic powers and the mind. which is terrestrial, coming from within terrestrial organisms and their mind. Randomly throwing in ‘cosmic power’ and ‘random aliens’ just makes the type stupidly bloated and inconsistent (why is Clefairy nor Psychic, but other aliens are, as an example).

      • Synthetic makes sense tbh, I don’t get how all these scientists can so easily replicate natural occurrences tbh

        Reply
          • The only problem I can see with that is Mega Mewtwo X and Magearna. Even then, just have it so MMX is the more ‘natural’ of the two and it utilises Mew’s genes to become a natural type.

            Magearna wasn’t made the same way as the other three synthetics, it was made through seemingly magical/alchemical uses so that’s why it wouldnt be synthetic type?

          • Perhaps, although I kinda took magearna and genesects steel typing to be what was modified with them. But I think magearna could stay as fairy steel, but you could maybe change genesect to bug and synthetic

  34. Guys, I feel like Misty has to be in the movie in some capacity… Because the trailers have shown the infamous Ash and Spearow scene, which took place AFTER he stole Mistys bike, right?

  35. Oh speaking of new types my Exo type so far has 3 Pokémon all are small organisms with little unique traits to shape their later typings

    Reply
      • Exo (abbreviated for extraterrestrial) but they are from a unique planet that other is from and do to differences of the composition of it they are this type, but have crash landed on Earth

        Reply
          • And since they are born of the composition they are I can do anything I want without logic needing to be used

          • That’s what I liked about UBs, they give design freedom! I’d love to see what your alien pokemon look like

          • The first will be more cute and a little bland, but no clue what I’ll conspire for final forms

          • ” I can do anything I want without logic needing to be used” you’re starting to sound like GF

          • Yeah, but unlike GF who just says it with this I actually can cause an alien can have so much untapped potential that no one can see the limits of the creativity

        • And before Earthen gets up on me about it. Its because they are born of foreign elements not found on earth and probably gonna say “What about Deoxsys?” Well they are not from the same planet this is much different from anything we’ve seen yet

  40. If you could play any game with any Pokemon as your starter (even Pokemon that didn’t exist in that games gen, or evolve it into a pokemon that didn’t exist in that Gen) what would it be?

    Diamond with Popplio, Fomantis or female Salazzle for me

  43. Also I dunno if you realized this but the movie is hiding something
    In the plot, it references a “Strong enemy”
    The Incineroar belongs to an antagonist trainer but he’s already been revealed, so the “strong enemy comment probably references something else….
    But what?

    Well a new movie isnt wrong to lead to assumptions like new games, so a c ouple of questions for you guys.
    Do you think/hope the game is Sinnoh returning, Gen 8, or Stars (or just third installment)?
    Do you think/hope it will be Switch Exclusive?
    What features from past games do you think/hope will carry over?
    What features from SM do you think/hope will be dropped?
    Are you ready to move on?

    Reply
    • – Either Sinnoh or Stars is good for me
      – It might as well be in both the 3ds and the switch with the switch version having more features and better graphics than the 3ds’ just like in Smash 4
      – Walking with Pokemons, Pokeheatlon and PWT
      – The festival plaza
      – No

      Reply
    • 1. Depends, see next answer.
      2. If they are moving to Switch eventually but not with this next game, then I want Stars. If they are going to stay on 3DS or moving to Switch already, then Sinnoh.
      3. BATTLE FRONTIER
      4. Battle tree for frontier, no national dex needs to change
      5. From what? From SM? as much as I hate to say it, yeah. I haven’t been able to put nearly as much time into it, I’ve only played ~300 hours and I’m starting to get bored.

  45. I honestly don’t think Ash will get a Water type this gen. There’s not really a new mon which can fit his team. Like Golisopod is prob going to be with Guzma, Araquanid is too creepy, and Bruxish + Pyukumuku is very unlikely.

  51. Just to scare you more, Marshadow is a spare slot mon… yknow… a Pokémon that runs three moves and its last move can be whatever it wants
    You get
    Spectral Thief
    Close combat
    Shadow Sneak/ Mach Punch
    And you have another slot open to anything… you can even shove laser focus on here…. if you know what that does, you should be terrified

            At the end of the day, GF is a business and third version/sequels/remakes are easier to make and rack up money

            Let’s just hope Sinnoh remakes and beyond are more like HGSS than ORAS

          • tough luck games have been degrading further and further as time goes on and they’re not catching any more lightning in their bottles

          • Pokemon fluctuates in quality though, (see: BW > XY > SM) and even then its all subjective

            For example for me Pokemon peaked on fourth Gen, continued being good in Gen V, dipped in Gen VI (they’re still objectively good games imo, just not up to a series standard) before coming back in SuMo. You and everyone else here will have a different opinion about it

        • Ehh, its a bit different. Battle Born was pretty much Dead on Arrival, and even then it would be a game that lasted for probably a couple of years before eventually it would be given a sequel since its graphical capabilities kinda looked dated before the game came out, and that doesn’t give it a lot of hope to age well. MMO’s are meant to appeal to people who can play the same game for a decade and will defend their game tooth and nail because they’ve invested years of their life playing it.

    I have been thinking about Marshadow’s pokedex lore and it intrigues me. It lore pretty much says how it’s elusive and never been seen by humans. It seems it’s entire function is not to be be seen and then I thought what if Marshadow has a event in the game but one that can only be unlocked though Island Scan. A Island Scan event would tie into the whole being elusive nature of Marshadow and actually be great for showing the QR scanner off. I me be way off base but I think it could be true. So do you think it’s possible.

  93. I feel like out of all the Pseudos, Shaymin is that one monotone person. He lives as a potted plant or something

  94. Low key confession: I was hoping that Radiant Sun Solgaleo and Full Moon Lunala would be temp form changes where they unlock the full power of the sun/moon some BS and they become Fire/Steel and Fairy/Ghost

  95. Well the conversation has quelled so time for a question I guess ?

    What’s your favourite animal, and is it a Pokemon?

    I for one should be feeling unrestrained hype but I cannot but feel my buzz has been harshed by the latest reviews, but I must stay hopeful and remember that this game isn’t Banjo Kazooie but its spirit, and it may never be as good as its predecessor but captured its essence

  97. I just realised that since Marshadow is probably coming out this year, as well as the Pikachu hats hopefully coming out, and I doubt they’ll add new Pokemon mid gen my national Dex is going to be complete until Gen 8 😀

    Unless we get more regional variants because I count those separately 😡

    • Don’t forget something involving Mew… Ugh that Z-Move means no Mega Mew, and that Mega Mew is vital for my theory of why Mega Mewtwo has two forms

      Reply
      • Tbh I think Mewtwo got its Megas when all the mega stones in ORAS were created from the meteor, it can’t be from the ultimate weapon

        What’s your theory for why it got two? 😮

        • Well my theory is that since if Mew itself can mega evolve that part of Mewtwo’s DNA hones into it and accesses a Mega Evolution form similar in Mew’s appearance, but the other reason is that due to its mutant spliced DNA it is reacting horribly to the Mega Evolution process and it hones in on its original programming aka to the the perfect weapon thus enhancing its fighting strength and achieves a form perfect for fighting

          • Makes sense to be honest, even without a Mega Mew

            Y is Mega Evolution reacting with the Mew part of its DNA, X is reacting with DNA unique to Mewtwo. Mew possibly doesn’t have a Mega Evolution because it can tap into Z-Power and Z-Power and Infinity Energy are somehow incompatible, or Mew just wasn’t effected by any of the events that created Mega Stones

          • I’ve been around since D/P and the lore still confuses me

            IMO it’s mad how much the lore has advanced since DPPt… Alternate dimensions… Alternate timelines… Infinity Energy… Z-Power… How are they going to tie this all together? Considering that Sinnoh’s legendaries are the embodiments of space and time, I hope DPPt remakes dig into this lore and make good use of it

          • I’m pretty sure that Gamefreak doesn’t give a shit about the lore and makes up things as it goes along. The new games seem to raise more questions rather truth to explain anything,and I’m sure sinnoh remakes will be the same

          • They have shown care for their lore and timelines tho, to the point we get obscure ass callbacks and characters don’t appear where the time line would conflict

          • Care?
            I was excited about the prospect of it after playing oras since I thought they would tie it and XY together, but we haven’t gotten any sort of other info on zinnia or az or the war.
            And the whole alternate timeline thing is so bady executed. I liked the idea of it in oras but they really didn’t do much with it when Anabel showed up in SuMo.
            And I’m sure we’re not gonna get more on Mohn,or the ultra beasts.

            “characters don’t appear where the time line would conflict”

            FRLG and ORAS take place at the same time.
            Red and Blue are grown up in SuMo, Wally is the same

          • Wally could easily just be the kind of person to stay baby faced, someone people legit look like puberty skipped past them and ruffled their hair. Plus, it’s an anime artstyle, this bs happens all the time

            Zinnia, AZ, the ear and alt timelines are all relatively new additions lol, yes they haven’t been played with as much as they could’ve but it’s far too soon to judge how GF will handle them. I just think it’s interesting they’re bothering to put this much lore in for a kid centric game
