Niantic was the recipient of several Webby awards for its global hit Pokémon GO and accepting the award was their Global Marking Lead Archit Bhargava. In traditional Webby-award fashion, he made a 5-word acceptance speech, “This summer will be legendary.”
While there have been multiple hints that 2017 would be the year Legendary Pokémon debuted in GO, we now have a much smaller time frame in which to expect them.
You can watch the speech at 18:50 in the video below.
What Legendary from Generations I or II would you like to see first??

Go on, Niantic. Show me what you’ve got. I’d absolutely love for people to become suddenly interested in Pokemon GO again, or even myself for that matter. Even if it wasn’t fantastic as a game, and had many, many issues, I had a blast with the experience of it last July. I liked Pokemon, and for a brief blip of time, so did the world.
I think I got carried away somewhere in there.
I think for the most part the people that never like Pokemon before will not come back to it. however, anyone that like pokemon previously and played the game last summer might come back.
And now there are so many features in the game, there’s no way people can’t enjoy it now… Especially with a brand new battle system coming. Can’t wait to catch these legendaries too!!!
I feel it will be more of an anniversary type event (July 6).
It’s going to be quite

did they at least roll a “In Memoriam” for all the dope who hurt or killed themselves while starting at their phones
http://pokemongodeathtracker.com/
oh lookie lookie
Holy f*ck!
and the best part is each one has a article to show these actually happened
well i’m going to bed
Goodnight dude!
Why do stripper bots keep trying to follow me on disqus
They try to follow me too just are attractive figures lure them to us!
I’ve had like 3 try in the past week!
I got about 5 last week too and they all take me to the exact same site!
i don’t get those….
Consider yourself lucky
Pokemon GO still? I guess it’s ok. I just don’t play it. It was fun though. I’d def play again if it didn’t reduce my phone speed so much. Plus too many pokemon too catch. I’ll stick to my handhelds.
Can they please just merge rock and ground type!
I cant stand rock types much longer. They all are so ugly :<
What do you guys think of a Rock ground merge?
yes
T_T even Rockruff? Or Bonsly? Or Dwebble?
No, we need to keep Rock and Ground seperate
Bonsly Ewwwww
Guess Im just mad this PWT keeps pairing me with ugly Rock types like Bastiodon or Probopass. Man Rock types are my least favorite type by far.
Oh look now Im paired with a Golem. Another nasty Rock type. Alola Golem is way better. This is no bueno
Literally everything you say makes me want to punch you…
And besides Golem is dangerous with Sturdy Weakness policy, and Sucker punch
Guess you’ll have to hit me then. :p
Well this Golem didnt have those moves. And Alola Golem cant get sucker punch. It’s just pathetic
I would if I could, u seem like the type who needs a good ass kicking, and the only way to get Sucker Punch Golem is in Platnium
I’d kill for a legit Sucker Punch Golem
Funny you say that
I know, if breeding wasn’t a…..crapshoot……….
If I go into Platnium and just hatched Geodudes until I get Adamant, power level a Graveler to 100 Teach it sucker punch
Transfer it to Black then to Sun and moon evolve it and then hyper train it….bing bang boom
Need I prove my dedication to my craft?
3 whole boxes of competitively bred mons…. for charity …
Who could u be possibly donating them to?
Y’all, I’m just waiting for people to ask
(More like specialized trading but it’s still mostly donating)
Just to be polite what you got? Also remind me tomorrow I still have that Blitzle and Cryogonal for ya sitting in my boxes
Every single Alolan mon competitive
Beside Salandit
Even Gumshoos?
Yup, Five for giveaway, one for myself
WHY WOULD ANYONE BOTHER?
Because, it’s my goal to breed every seventh gen mon for competitive use
Besides, it’s not even the most useless of the Pokémon I bred
OOooooh What are you giving away
Any non Salandit gen 7 mon
Oooooh Well Don’t mind If I have some then
So what would ya like? Special Pokeballs are my currency
Can we do this tomorrow?
Sure
im asking
Ayyy
Also you need to take the Dream Ball Audino
I will tomorrow
IF you lose to a gimmick set like that you still have a lot to learn
Not really. It’s the same sash set up. Quite common. Sure Hazards plus Special attack can kill it. But for a late game sweeper it isn’t that bad.
But it’s a golem… and sucker punch got nerfed… it’s stupidly easy to kill
Who cares it’s just a small thing that can make golem not so much a pushover, I mean it really shouldn’t be with a decent 120 attack and stab on powerful moves like stone edge and earthquake
And the weakness policy and sturdy helps make it hurt
But it’s a really risky tactic, eats up an item, can be easily played around… all in all, use another mon… HELL even Midnight Lycan does that job better
Well it’s better then having this thing just be a meat shield just to set up stealth rocks and be a poke you sacrifice for switch ins….it deserves a little better treatment…
It should be forgotten
That’s just hurtful…
I love Golem….
https://media.giphy.com/media/28tMeQHUIEdLG/giphy.gif
You like a lot of shitmons huh?
I like what I like, I’m not gonna let competitive pros and cons change my views on them, and I don’t care what you say Weakness Policy Golem can do some damage, it’s better then doing nothing
I mean you also like bad designs too
Well it’s just a opener I mean it’s still a golem and will fall semi quickly it’s literally the only thing other than Stealth rocker, I’ve actually swept a team once with it,
Hey Golem is one of the Rock type I love along with Lycanroc Midnight, Rampardos and Armaldo
Ramparados is the best Rock type hands down.
Lies
Aggron is the best Rock type as well.
Also lies
Armaldo
Pokemon world tournament?
Yeup
Refresh my memory, so your forced to fight with rock types or you fighting them?
With Rock types
Agreed
Though Lycanroc and Nihilego are really cool
I still wish Nihilego was Poison/Psychic
It just doesn’t seem like a rock type, yeah yeah the glass comparison, but it literally only makes use of Power Gem and that’s it, it’s whole Neurotoxin thing makes the perfect candidate for Poison/Psychic
We get it Earthen,you’ve a said this at least 20 separate occasions
Plus what right does someone who never uses legends have to talk about a legend
What does that have to do with anything, I’m just speaking mah mind
It means we understand and you don’t need to say it every time I bring Nihilego up, people stopped caring after the fifth time you said it
Nihilego is from a completely different dimension that is completely unlike earth or the pokemon world, what logical reason do you possibly have to argue about its genetic make-up? for all you know it could be made of a rock like substance
Yea those are nice rock types. I want to try Nihil but idk what set to use and you only get one
TImid, always timid
You either go for …
Focus sash support
Focus Sash sweeper
Or the choice scarf set
But Idk if I want support or Scarf. I wish I had access to multiple legends.
*I do have both sun and moon, but Im too LAZY to catch anything*
True…
I prefer sweeper. As cool as support is, I prefer other mons to do it. Nihilego is the only rock poison type so I’d reccomend using it’s interesting coverage to your advantage .. and don’t forget to check its hidden power
I think the one I have is HP Ice. I guessI can make the one in Moon HP fire, but HP fire is so hard to get
HP ice is actually pretty damn good
Fire is best of course but still
Why am I like this… I’m normally a super and happy carefree person… at least on the outside
when i get nervous…. it all hits me at once
same fam. it sucks :/
Yeah ;~;
I realize that if this math test is bad.., I’m not going to take it well
So like how I get even though I’m always worried about something
Yep.. I am too but it’s especially bad now..
Thats not good I’m taking it out on drawing already done 4 of them I think they look great!
Well I’d love to see em!
There ready I’ll post above

Cutie Saturday always brings some good art to the table that’s usually non-traditional.
If I used Twitter I would make so much art for it
You should. Your art’s beautiful. You should use it just to show off your style. It could be great advertising if you ever wanted to try to make a career out of your art.
Aw thank you :3
I’m spending this summer shaping up my art style and practicing anatomy and stuff like that. I guess it would be nice to do that stuff
This is probably my favorite of this week. She’s just so beautiful

I thought you hated this game?
Not anymore thanks to Twintelle apparently
That direct kinda made me a bit more open. I’ll decide after I try the global test Punch
Off-topic, but I will say that there’s one game I would absolutely kill for to be on the Switch, but it won’t be likely ever happen: Super Mario Galaxy 3.
I know that with the most recent stuff, 3D Land and the upcoming Odyssey, it fulfills its absence with the 3d perspective, but I want to be able to solve riddles again on planetoids with eye-catching views of a galaxy I’m on. I fell in love with 1 and 2, playing them all the time after school and almost through each one’s content. When I came to the slow realization that they won’t develop another one, I was very distraught. It was what made me love the Wii, and also was what convinced me to buy one. Anyway, what I’m saying I’m just hoping that with Mario games now being released on the Switch, please Nintendo. Make another Galaxy game and I can die happy. That’s all I’m asking for.
I agree, it probably won’t. Odyssey already seems to be partly in space/different planets and stuff so it’s kind of like a blend of Galaxy and 3D World. I do really want the music from the Galaxy series to come back though.
Has nobody literally said nothing since last night?
yep
Yay
I think so
I guess so.
I think today I’m gonna try drawing my Dex
Some will be easy, some hard, and the rest tedious
I think I’ll start with regionals
Starters
Rodent
Bird
Pikaclone
Pseudo
I have some sketches for most of these in my region, but I don’t know if they’re good enough.
You should post them I bet they are good
ALWAYS THE FUCKING CLAFABLE
I HAD IT BUT STUPID MINIMIZE HAX
and hax strikes again,
Well Keystone day 3 done one more day of Bio testing and its done. Then more freakin’ school afterwards!
So my Psychology teacher loves Hamilton…
And in a teacher Karaoke fundraiser she sang a song from it….
and she…. was actually quite good
…
…
She’s fuckin rad af
My Algebra II teacher was this sweet old lady (that everyone except a few people like me hated b/c her class was “really hard”). It was so surprising to hear her sing one day, because she has a really amazing voice. The song was from The Sound of Music.
😀 Awesomeeeee
Hamilton is the bessssstt
And the other two teachers on the team sounded EXTREMELY BAD
Beautiful
