If Pokemon SM ultra does not have new pokemon i will personally go to GF headquarters to fight them
You could probably take them they are so lazy they forgot to put a battle frontier in oras
Have you ever battled Game Freak in the games?
They don’t mess around.
In a battle

We’ll get them eventually comrade.
Oh, I got a good chuckle outta this.
They lying

Ironic considering it came from someone who leaked Stars ??
I want to know who is directing these games.
GF not announcing my favorite gen remakes is a personal attack against me and my soul
https://m.popkey.co/d39bdc/zJq77.gif
I missed drag queen gifs
If more Pokémon are Getting exclusive Z moves can they at least make them interesting like Genesis Supernova and not boring like the starter one. I still think Oceanic Operetta should set up the rain for 5 turns.
Lycanrock needs a Z-move that sets up Sand
Arcanine should get a Z-move that Burns the opponent.
All my yes to that Lycan Z-Move
I’m running most of my same team
Decidueye
Araquanid
Salazzle
And Kommo o
Dunno for the other two though
I don’t get people who can repeat, I get so bored with it XD
Why mess with success?
That being said, I’m probably running a different team.
Because we got jack shit for a region and everything sucks
Because you’re acting childish and won’t even try to experiment
Honestly, it’s cause it is a remake and it feels right to use my four Alolan all stars
I do wanna change a few things though
It’s not a remake tho its an update ?
:p
Still I gotta reuse those four
Nah fam you gotta use
A poetry obsessed Incineroar
Larshadow (Marshadow’s gay cousin)
Wormadam
Stunfisk
Would LARShadow be pink?
No he’s maaaauve
He needs to have his redemption arc first
Where he admits his love for poetry Incineroar and then runs away from home and adopts Stunfisk and Wormadam
Which one acts like the dog?
That shitty assassin Rowlet fake evo
And Ballio is the creepy uncle
Wait assassin fake evo? Or do you mean Deci
Nah I wouldn’t call Deci shitty
Overrated? Maybe. Shitty? Nah
I’ll try and find it
Okay gud
You gotta admit he looks good in Pokken
I’d rather have Ciny or Prim but he actually looks fun tbh
He’s a mix of like Sceptile, Croagunk, Blaze, and a few others
Looks really speedy
And I love speedy characters :3
if its anything like sun and moon he’s gonna turn out really slow for some reason
Reminder that Empoleon is a power character
It doesn’t look good though
It looks fantastic
YESH
Here

Disgusting
WHY DOES POPPLIO HAVE A NOSE COMING OUT OF ITS HEAD
It was mutated
And the second evo… is fat.. than skinny?
I’d call it Garfilth
NO LASAGA
Jesus Christ, Rowlett final Evo is the edgiest thing I’ve seen in my life,
Because most mons don’t work for me and repeat types on my team (be lucky I want to stick with Mimikyu this time)
Idk what I’ll use cause the alola dex was meh and I used all the new ones that I wanted
What i hope for Ultra games is that they make competitive breeding as easy as it was in XY (cause i stopped playing SM because breeding takes too long now)
lolwut? Breeding has never been so easy with SM. In XY, I gotta go left and right to see if the guy already has an egg for me. In SM, I just have to spin with Tauros.
Tbh I’m kinda disappointed
About Pokken, USUM or GS?
All are legitimate answers.
Usum. I’d rather have sequels and I don’t like the necrozma fusions
I kind of am too. Idk I’m just not feeling it much. I’ll need to see more info before I make a final judgement though
The only thing that disappoints me is the fact that we aren’t getting a Main series for the Switch, I think that UsUm might actually be great games
*Yet
Maybe they’re saving DPRemakes to be on the Switch.
Maybe…
its gonna come to the switch watch
I hope
Am I the only one that will use the starter and 5 new mons/Alolan forms (if get them)?
Starters are getting ditched faster than GameFreak ditched Zygarde
I already used all 3 starters. Decidueye in Sun and Primarina & Incineroar in Moon. This because I thought we were going to get DP remakes instead. Now, whether I buy one or both of these Ultra games, I’m definitely not repeating any of the starters. I’ll just breed some mons I never got to use before, I guess.

Damn girl where did you get those hand wings? Love ’em
She stoned it herself!!
You go girl!
GameFreak: Wow our fans have been waiting a decade for Sinnoh remakes… Well, time to remake Alola!
didnt we say this with the hoenn remakes lol
So, you’ve been waiting for Sinnoh remakes since it just came out…
Yes ?
Sinnoh remakes won’t get a Direct. And it’s too soon after ORAS.
It is joke
Sure fooled me
My name and avi literally are hyping up USUM
Like I said, you fooled me. I pay attention to the comments.
https://twitter.com/getRICKTD/status/872106667109994496
Hoping Necro-Lunala & Solgaleo dont get the Kyurem treatment because I would really like to have both of them at the same time if possible.
Oh, this. definitely this. I still get pissed that I can’t have both Kyurem forms at the same time.
Am I the only one actually hyped about the games anymore? …. I feel like they just got shot down so quick here….
I’m hyped asf
Mostly for new forms and Z-Moves
Gud
I’m hyped because I already loved sun and moon and these will be even better
Because I thought i can finally put down my 3ds. Guess not
But…. are you at least hyped for the games?
Idk i gotta see more
Stay hyped tho man… I know it’ll be great!
I’m HYPED as well, this game is S/M but more awesome it seems, and with new features as well
THANK YOU!!! 😀 I agree!
I’m incredibly hype! I can’t wait for new forms, story and possibly new features!? Is Pokemon walking going to make it’s return? I sure hope so!
ANYTHING CAN AT THIS POINT!
Nope this has not hyped me in the slightest
We better get some news next week
(sigh) How? You wanted Sun and Moon to be better
Here it is, literally right in front of ya
Oh yeah what is new
A FLESHED OUT STORY
ITS OBVIOUS THATS WHAT THEY MEAN
Doubt it
FLESHED OUT GUZMA
JUST BE HYPED OR SOMETHING I CAN’T TAKE ALL THIS FUCKIN NEGATIVITY TO A GAME JUST BY ITS TRAILER
Not happening
Did you think a lousy trailer would make me happy? No
(sigh)
That area with the Pikachu
New clothing
Probably new Z-Moves
‘New Pokémon never seen before’, which implies more new Pokémon/forms than just Sol and Lun
Like I care about areas
Clothes never struck me, just hipster wear
I hate Z-Moves
Unless they pander to my individual tastes I couldn’t give two squirts of piss they’re just gonna be used against me sooner or later
We don’t usually get news right after the game is announced so don’t get your hopes up
E3
Duhh
Just wait m8
I’m just saying prepare for the chance of disappointment
Do we really need more disappointment? This game immediately got shot down… I need something to look forward to
What do you guys think will be different about Ultra Solgaleo and Ultra Lunala?
typing and abilities and maybe stats
Them stats, maybe a few other things like moves and possibly ability
Typing, stats, abilities and a new Z-Move or signature move
I think they’ll both get Prism Armour
Oh god please no
They have literal Prism Armour tho ?
I’ll kill myself, that would make Ultra Luna a literal downgrade
Laaaaame. I want an upgraded version of it
What if these are actually Necrozma impersonating Solgaleo and Lunala?
Idk I’m just guessing manb
Wait… If It’s an alternate story… WHAT IF KUKUI IS THE EVIL TEAM LEADER WITH BURNETT AS THE ADMIN, AND GUMZA AND PLUMERIA ARE THE PROFFESORS? WHAT IF GUZMA IS PROFFESOR WILLOW?
That’s not what they meant
How do you know?
It’ll likely be the events of SuMo that are altered, the the back story imo
BUT FLESHED OUT GUZMA OUR BOI
You can flesh him out with a different story in the SuMo basis
I KNOW BUT EVEN MORE FLESHED OUT GUZMA
HE MIGHT BE ULTRA AMAZING HERE
Watch Guzma not be in the game
He’s replaced with Guzmaline
It’ll be just Guzma wearing Lusamine clothes and hair
I’ll kill myself
We might get a fleshed out Guzma
…do you realize how amazing that is?
Plumeria pls
I might be biased
They’ll all be good
A fleshed out Lusamine is 10x times better
Come @ me
I feel her story is pretty well fleshed out. If any thing I just want to find out if they managed to cure her.
Wrong… no just no
im personally not excited for USM and more cautious towards it. i dont really know if i’ll be swayed over in the coming months :/
Let us enjoy this great and fitting song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hu9pTGFjA4c
Lovesick the beat inside my head
Direct struck a sea of bitterness
Lights out solo in the blue
Before I found you
Days passed slowly, lost and low
You gave me hope and now there’s only
Salt running in my veins
I’ve never been here before
And I got hate falling like the rain
I definitely could’ve asked for more
I got so much SoulSilver inside my bones
Take a look at me now
I’m young, forever in the (ultra)sun
Ever since this came, I’m living ultralife
I’m living ultralife
I’m living ultralife
Turn down the voice inside my head
‘Cause heaven only knows why we feel this emptiness
But I will climb out, find another view
Now I’ve found you
I wanna bet that Guzma is going to be Proffesor williow in USUM
Nah
Definitely skipping out on Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, but super hyped for Pokken making a return!
WAIT WHAT WHY!?
I’d say it’s too soon to say whether you’d skip it or not tbh (unless you like lit don’t have a 3DS or something)
I have a 3DS, but I’m putting these games in the same boat as BW2 so they better be good. Gyms, steep level curve, a Battle facility. Or bust :/
Yeah, I agree. If they don’t have that same level of quality that previous third versions and BW2 had, then what’s the point?
Yeah, you’ll say that until they reveal Alolan Dedenne.
😮
Apparantly there was this 4chan rumour two weeks ago that said about UltraSun and Moon and also mentioned Eclipse in 2018 #believe
Currently at stage 3: bargaining
eclipse would be for switch, right?… right?…
Yeah, forgot to mention that
Interestingly enough, now with Gold and Silver coming to VC, the only generation that doesn’t have access to PokeBank is gen 4. Still might be hope that gen 4 remakes are inbound.
Gonna miss E3 and I wanna die
