  1. A little analysis
    Midnight Lycanroc
    Abilities: Keen Eye, Vital Spirit (Hidden Ability: No Guard)
    Type: Rock
    Stats:
    HP: 85
    Attack: 115
    Defense: 75
    Special Attack: 55
    Special Defense: 75
    Speed: 82
    Base Stat Total: 487

    This mon seemed to be a really focused upon pre release, so it would make sense to have slightly higher stats. Maybe around 510 (Zoroark) or 525 (Lucario). Where would those extra points go you may ask…. literally anywhere besides Special attack….
    Anyways, my suggestions to fix this mon…
    -Type Change: Rock/Fighting
    Moveset Additions: Cross Chop, Accelrock/Mach Punch, Iron Tail, Earthquake, Ice Punch

  6. Alright right now I’m at 148 Pokemon for my dex and that’s good and all but I feel like I can add a few more
    I definitely need another Ice type

    And I really need a name for my Pure Grass Bear Pokemon that has berries growing on its body “fruit bearing”

      • My brother says using mythology is a creative crutch,
        It’s basically an idea grab bag that anybody can pluck out, change or reword and use

          • They do, I’m trying not to
            I try to focus on a creature, a element and a overall theme

            Like right now I’m considering my Ice/Steel Moose
            A burly cold weather dwelling creature with magnificent antlers made out of ice cold metal after years of consuming iron rich water in northern springs

          • How does it not?
            Moose thrive in cold environments and the reason why it has a steel type is from iron rich water which is a very real thing, and it’s just better then just saying it has metal antlers plain and simple

  8. I made Midnight Lycanballs an extremely potent threat. I wonder what other “trash” mons can be made decent

      • Basically advertisers have started to pull their ads from YouTube after finding out that their ads can be placed on highly offensive content. YouTube has now started demonetizing videos like crazy causing creators to make very little money. I think H3H3 said it was like an 80% drop or something like that?

        H3H3 productions has already started preparing to leave YouTube if they have to and other creators may fall suit if something doesn’t change.

        YouTube seems to just want to control content

        Reply

          • To put it simply, the market will adapt. If youtube cuts their money, they’ll simply move to another streaming service and create their own website or set up a pareron for people who want to directly support them. This is a case of growing pains and it’ll be a distant memory in a few months.

        • This is entirely new to me, but wow. Are advertisers really that oblivious that they’re just now, on the 12th year of YouTube, finding out that there’s offensive content on there? Or am I simply misunderstanding something?

          Reply

          • That’s it in a nutshell. Someone told the ad depts “you can make money though this” and they signed up without thinking.

          • But that’s another thing, if it’s money for them why do they care?

            And what qualifies as offensive content to them? It’s a serious question, I really don’t know what they count as offensive.

          • The stuff that youtube’s (and pretty much ever other website’s) guidelines state are supposed to be not allowed on the website.
            Racism, sexism, beheadding westerners. (Yet somehow buzzfeed still exits because it gets views.)

        • Part of the problem is that the advertisers signed up to have their adverts on any random video instead of backing specific channels.
          Anyone with half a brain cell would realise that means their ad could end up on offensive content.
          The problem is they were all too busy thinking “yay, lots of viewers, lots of money” to consider the consequences.

          Reply

          • Because someone thought “oh no, the idiots, I mean customers, might think we support isis or racism if our adverts appear on offensive videos”.

            Which goes to show what high regard they hold the general public in.
            Heck, they’re running on the belief that adverts actually improve sales anyway, as far as I’m concerned their entire system is founded on a false belief.

          • Oh, so offensive stuff is terrorist stuff? That makes sense. I would assume most people know that the ads are video specific, but who knows.

            But, then again, that same logic could be used for websites too. If an ad is seen on an article about racism or terrorism or anything of the like, then the same unaware consumers will think the same thing as if they saw it on a YouTube video.

          • Might be more than just that, but that’s one of the things.

            That’s why it’s broken logic and only an idiot would think that way. Anyone with half a brain would know that seeing a Daz advert on a beheading video on youtube doesn’t mean Daz supports ISIS/IS/Daesh/whatever the lunatics call themselves, but they’re approaching it like people will think that.
            Technically it does mean that it’s possible that they’re inadvertantly funding *insert terrorist organisation here* but that’s down to having a flawed ‘any advert on any video’ system instead of an ‘advertisers only back what they want to be affiliated with’ system.

    • But seriously, there’s a creator that got over 80% of his revenue cut and is having a really bad time. I just hope this ends soon.

      Reply

    • I find it somewhat odd that it’s only coming up now. Also I thought ads were based on browser history? Some content does unfortunately need to be controlled but isn’t being. Various things like hate preaching, beheading videos and other such horrible things are making it onto places like YT, Facebook etc and aren’t being stamped out. Advertisers are getting the message out for their products regardless and I think the video they appear on should be irrelevant as it is a persons choice to watch that video, unless it appears within the video itself it doesn’t feel associated to it to me.

      • Ads are based on browsing history, but not the history in your browser.
        They use cookies to track people and build up profiles of said people, which they then store in their databases so you can’t delete it.
        Worst bit – that’s perfectly legal.
        The internet age is a scary place.

          • Imagine one of your family gets ill and you google the symptoms. You decide it’s something serious so you google your local doctor’s surgery to find the number for it.

            Google now knows roughly where you live and something about the health of a family member. If you used google voice they also have a clip of your voice on their server and can collate it with other voice clips they already have of you by identifying the phone you used.

            After many weeks this information stacks up and they can build a profile of you. Pretty much the only things they can’t guess are your name and age (unless you’ve searched those too). Imagine a hacker gets that info. 3 weeks go by and your house is burgled because you use your phone to post on facebook that the whole family is having a meal out.

            A’int technology grand?

        • That’s what I was meaning. I always wonder where they store all the information and how effective they think it is. Personally I ignore all ads.

          Reply

          • The point is that target had enough information about them to be able to tell such a thing. It doesn’t take much metadata for a website to be able to build a comprehensive profile of an individual’s interests, habits, political views etc.

          • Yeah I get what you mean. I just wonder if that is really benefiting them financially, though I guess it must be if they are doing it more and more.

          • It does because older generations and some less clued in people still tend to click the ‘other people bought’ stuff, and sometimes it does genuinely produce decent results.

            It follows the same analytic philosophies as correlating weather with products bought (e.g. if the temperature is 25c then people are more likely to buy ice cream, so order more ice cream for next week) and putting all the chocolates right next to the check-out to tempt people to buy one (people have less time to think “it’s unhealthy” if they’re just moments away from paying than if they’ve still got half a shop to traverse).

            (And now I’m worrying that I know all this useless trivia.)

          • It’s not necessarily useless if it helps you be more savvy about the exploitation you could have targeted towards you (and your finances). The check-out thing is something that has been debated quite a lot, I have done it myself but tbf I would probably have bought that sweet elsewhere in the shop if I could be bothered to go up and down looking for it. I wonder if they put more healthy stuff there if that would work in the same way.

          • People are lazy though, dangle them a convinient expensive carrot and they won’t find the cheaper one buried in the back 😛

            If it does genuinely work for chocolate they should definately do it for fruit instead. If I saw a nice apple by the checkout I’d probably go for it, but there’s no guarantee it would convice children. It would probably keep the healthy people healthy but have zero affect on the unhealthy – you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink.

            Removing the chocolates from the front of the shop would mean no more kids throwing a tantrum if they don’t get a chocolate bar though – out of sight, out of mind – so there would be some benefit.

            The shops won’t do that though, they care more about the revenue the chocolate brings 😛

          • They should do alot of things that they don’t due to greed, I’ll not expect that to change unless law is passed against it which equally won’t happen.

          • If the governments really did care about health it’s what they would do. Instead they just attempt daft things like extra taxation on sugar and give speaches and look angry.

    • Won’t affect me much, I already block ads and don’t actually follow specific ‘youtubers’.
      The only thing I watch regularly is the Space Engineers update video explaining what they’ve added in the update.

      Tbh I don’t like ads anyway.

      If ads have to be there, I want them to be static images on the edge of the screen where I don’t have to look at them, not in-your-face unskippable minute-long videos.

      I wouldn’t buy a product because it advertised on the internet, but I’d certainly stop buying one if it had an advert that annoyed me.

      • I agree with you on this and personally don’t use youtube much except for if I need help with a game or if I want to find some music or a movie trailer. Ads on this site can make it laggy and painful to use. I understand the need for advertising, I don’t understand the need for unskipable stuff as I just go to another tab and wait it out.

        Reply

        • I’ll admit there are times I’ve genuinely been interested (e.g. film and game adverts), but in those cases the ads were skippable as they should be.

          Lag is a very good point, one of the reasons I suggest static images.
          The internet world treats people as if data transfer isn’t expensive, but some people don’t have fast internet and some people still don’t have ‘unlimited’ internet, so every unneccessary byte of data is extra money the customer has to pay.

          To a western world that’s not so bad, but the third world is on the internet and they don’t have the intrastructure we do, so there’s lots of things they can’t handle and end up missing out on just because some rich company saw that using videos instead of images might boost their revenue by 0.6%.

          • The worst ads are the video ones that loop, they are usually deafening and you have to click them off when you eventually find them, which if you don’t have pop-up blocker will likely bog you down with pop-ups to their website. Thankfully these aren’t as common any more. Oh and then you have the ones that are clickbait for morons like ” you won’t believe this trick Donald Trump used to make his hands grow” or ” people who you don’t know what look like now and didn’t know were dead”. These don’t appear on YT but I’ve seen them here and elsewhere.

          • Thankfully most browsers have built-in popup blockers these days.
            One ad that really used to annoy me (it was for some sort of washing machine detergent like Daz or something) was a video that used to come on wikia pages. It would randomly start playing really loudly and the button to pause it was so tiny. That’s why I eventually gave in and installed an ad blocker in protest.

            The clickbait ones are hilarious. I’m actually almost ok with those because they tend to be static and occaisionally give me a laugh. They’re still on the big side, but less obnoxious than some.

          • I think the last really annoying one I saw was for a detergent too but I can’t say I take notice of them anymore. I mute my TV when the ads start too or just watch stuff on unofficial streaming sites that tend to have one ad before the video which I mute and ignore.
            I just wonder who actually clicks the clickbait? Some are just so ridiculous I can’t even imagine who would come up with that and say “yep this’ll get ’em” XD

          • We tend to record stuff and skip through the adverts on TV where possible. It makes more sense with 30/60 minute stuff because toilet breaks and things, but it makes no sense for 5 minute videos unless the advert is only 5-10 seconds.
            (I adblock onunofficial streaming sites. Double evil :P)

            The ridiculousness is part of the trick. If someone is stupid enough to believe the hook, they’re stupid enough to get scammed.

          • I don’t have the luxury of recording stuff at the moment or I would do that. I don’t know what ad blocker is good so don’t have one.
            You have to be seriously lacking in brain cells to click some of those things.

          • I don’t watch that much television these days anyway. Mostly just soaps and reruns of old series like NCIS.

            I had the original AdBlock back when I was using Chrome, along with Ghostery to block beacons. On Firefox I use Ad Block Plus, which still misses the clickbait ones but blocks all the most annoying ones, and you can give it exceptions if you want to specifically view the adverts on a page to support the website.

            Sadly people do.
