Weakness Cup Announced for Sun & Moon

Ready for a new challenge to take on in Pokémon Sun & Moon? The Weakness Cup has been announced and requires players to create a team of Pokémon that have 5 or more weaknesses! Some of those Pokémon considered too frail for normal usage may just get their time to shine. That’s not all though–players will also earn Ampharosite, Altarianite, Latiosite, and Latiasite Mega Stones if they participate in 3 or more battles! That means Mega Ampharos, Mega Altaria, Mega Latios and Mega Latias can be yours to use in Sun & Moon! The official site shares more details about the competition:

Registration for the Weakness Cup begins Thursday, July 20, 2017, at 00:00 UTC. The competition goes from Friday, July 28, at 00:00 UTC, until Sunday, July 30, at 23:59 UTC. Trainers will be limited to 15 battles per day.

It is also worth noting that according to Serebii.Net the battles will actually be double battles, not single battles.

Be sure to hit up the link for all the rules! May the WEAKEST Pokémon… WIN!

  1. Tbh its nice to have GameFreak set something up for some of the poorer Pokémon who have to cope with all those weaknesse, but I bet it’ll be Greninja meta

  2. My comment turned to a article. My words are just so worthy I see.
    Anyway this is quite the tourney! I love these unique tourneys theyve been doing. If I wasnt so lazy I would actually play in them, but no motivation to breed.
    I guess Ice, rock, and grass types are gonna be the super common ones presumsbly.

  3. As much as I love the idea for this Tourney, there’s gonna be Protean and Ash Greninjas everywhere for this…

  4. So this is where everyone went, I’m swamped at work and nobody gives a shit….
    They see me struggling to go through a gigantic mess all by myself and don’t acknowledge me

    As for the Tourney I don’t care, usually all my favorites are engorged with weaknesses

  9. Kinda dumb thing outta boredom: go into an RNG, put the limits at 1-802, and then go six times to generate a Pokémon team.

    How bad is it? How good is it? For NFE pokemon you can consider their evos too

  10. I’m scrapping the previous Alpaca fakemon. After being with Alpacas I have a better Idea!
    Alpasoft (Normal) that can be 4 diffrent colours (like Flabebe) that Evolves into:
    Metalpac (Steel/Normal) that is based on diffrent metals based on the colour of its prevo
    Beige Alpasoft -> Gold Metalpac
    Brown Alpasoft -> Copper Metalpac
    Grey Alpasoft -> Silver Alpasoft
    Black Alpasoft -> I don’t know, help me

    Reply
    • Metals only really come in shades of grey besides Gold and Copper, so if I were you I’d just go with a dark grey metal to contrast with silver

      Reply
  11. I really want them to just go all out for Gen 8. Use that technology to their advantage. Give us like… three regions. pokemon follow us. more dynamic battles, legendaries fighting like in the movies, fire emblem cutscene art style. lez go

    Reply
        • Yes. Pokemon has a tradition of how the games look. You want FireBlade: Breath of the Oddysey with Pokemon. Pokemon makes changes step by step, we have to be patient. Remember What pokemon is, a turn based RPG for mobile consoles (Switch is still a pretty small change), that’s what makes it diffrent in this times.

      Arcanine
      Flannery

      Least Favorite
      Simisear
      Chili

      One of my most liked types! I recently discovered that a lot of my favorite Pokémon are fire types!

      Reply
    • Fave Poké: Incineroar
      Fave Leader: Kiawe

      L. Fave Poké: Blaziken
      L. Fave Leader: Flannery

      Wpuld elaborate but phone is laggy

      Reply
    • Fav: Chandelure and Flannery
      Least: Magmotar and Kiawe

      It’s a very cool typing :0 at first I didn’t like it very much but the type ended up growing on me and it’s now on my top 5 favourite typings! They’re so cool looking, great moves and has a ton of interesting mons as well. I wish I could use more fire types than I usually use on my playthroughts

      Reply
    • Favorite: Flint/Emboar, most of the Fire leaders don’t suit my needs, and Emboar is my absolute favorite Fire Starter
      Least favorite: Flannery/Volcanion, I never liked her, and this thing pisses me off so much, it’s like Heatran 2.0 always using Steam Eruption and now it has Bloom Doom to counter ground types and why do these things carry Sludge Bomb

      Fire and me are comrades in arms, a powerful destructive force that won’t stop unless it’s stopped or completely burnt out,

      Reply
    • FP: Blaziken. This is just a cool pokemon that shouldnt get any hate. First its a chicken! Thats OP. an OP chicken. That chickens has literally Flaming Kicks. The hair is amazing. The color is awesome. The cry is awesome. Its also over 6ft. Most cool mons are actually tiny, but this is giant! This thing is the OG Fire fighting. I just love it!
      FL: Flannery. Shes a hottie. She used torkoal before it was good, and she knew how to use it. I mean seriously Overheat Sunny Day White HErb Strat? Hello? This is in game 4th gym! Plus I like how shes trying to be something shes not

      LP: Emboar. I talk about it a lot. So lets make this short and sweet. Its ugly.
      LL: Chili. TBH i like most of the fire type leaders, hes only my least favorite because he always beats me in PWT.

      I like fire types definitely on the upper half. The Pokemon are generally cool, and the element is just awesome. They also do very well in battle. Too bad their worst enemy is SR. I could def be a fire type trainer

      Reply
    • Fav:
      Flannery cause her arc is very relatable and she rocks that hairstyle like no tomorrow
      Typhlosion cause it rocks my socks and Ninetales cause it’s majestic af (both forms are majestic af tbh)
      Least Fav:
      Flint, just mainly being the least fav out of them all, like the others better
      Emboar cause reasons
      Thoughts: 3rd fav type overall behind psychic and dragon, really great designed mons

      Reply
    • Fav Mon: *cough* look at my prof pic *cough*
      Other than him, It’s probably Pyroar
      Least fav:
      I’d have to say Emboar, He’s ugly for no reason and no typing should be a starter 3 times in a row
      I really like Fire types, there’s something intresting about them, they have some personality

    • Already three Emboars on the least favorite list…..why is it always my favorites on the most disliked

      Reply
    • Fire type leader? Simple, Flannery, she’s gr8
      Favorite fire mon: Victini. It’s cute af and was my favorite pre gen-7 Pokémon
      Least favorite fire leader: Flint because aren’t isn’t he supposed to use fire types? He has two fire types if I remember right
      Least favorite fire mon: Flaming kitty fursiit

      Reply
    • Favourite ‘mon: Infernape, I just love its’ design, different styles of combat and it has imo one of the best character arcs in the anime. http://68.media.tumblr.com/8fbc1a1a932bac2280f2d09abcb2bdb1/tumblr_n372a7mZ8c1sqfocmo1_500.gif
      Favourite leader: Flannery, she’s hot (love her design, both original and ORAS), she has character and she’s pretty tough for a 4th Gym Leader even with 2 Pokemon with 4x Water Weaknesses. https://68.media.tumblr.com/73ef2fe11c5b2ca42b467ad129905c61/tumblr_ngoymbyRk11ttdkobo3_400.gif

      Least Favourite Pokemon: Magmortar. I don’t really like the Pink bits but could live with them if it still had its’ beak, instead of what look like hideous lips. I don’t really like its’ head in general, which is funny given what Magmars’ head looks like. I also don’t like the pink spikes on its’ back.
      Least Favourite leader: Chili, just bland really. It was between him and Flint for his Ronald MacDonald look but he actually has a challenging team.

      I love Fire types. It’s in my top 5 types and possibly my favourite. Yeah it has some common weaknesses, but it is overall a strong type and burns can be pretty useful. I like most of their designs and outright love some. I do think there is room to experiment with what sort of thing has the type. Some of my other favourites: Chimchar and Monferno; Charmander line including Megas; Alolan Marowak; Growlithe line; Vulpix line; Magby and Magmar (I don’t hate Magmortar); Flareon; Numel line (+Mega); Ponyta line; Moltres; Cyndaquil line; Slugma line; Entei; Ho-Oh; Houndour line (+Mega); Torchic line (+Mega), Torkoal; Primal Groudon; Victini; Litwick line; Volcarona; Reshiram; Fennekin; Litleo line; Salandit line. But I like pretty much everything in this type.

          • Oh yeah it totally is. I’ve had to use Kik to have a private conversation but now I cant because it updated and apparently I’m blocked from downloading anything 18+

            18+ includes:
            Youtube
            Google Chrome
            Kik

            makes sense /s

          • How is Yt 18+? It has a restricted mode Where you can’t even see thumbnails of 18+ stuff

          • Haven’t you heard the legends about the full lenght uncensored video of a mother giving birth on Grass?

          • I watched One a born every minute in primary 7 (like 11years old) kids these days can handle this ?

          • Jeez and I thought my parents were invasive. I had to use AOL as my internet browser for a while because it has parental controls. And every email I sent with it would get carbon copied to them as well :/. I later got upgraded to IE, which was more relaxed, and then Chrome which I use regularly. If I misbehaved, I would get downgraded to IE, then AOL. I hated it so much. I’d also have to sit at my desk, which is opposite my door, so they could see everything if they wanted.
            This was all years ago though, it all pretty much stopped when I entered high school. And now that I’m in college I’m pretty much on my own. I can do whatever and it’s great! I went to Disney with my girlfriend in the middle of last semester just because and they never knew 🙂

          • She’s never like this EXCEPT when she bought me my phone. It’s insane. She always threatens to put parental controls on everything I own randomly. Which would really fuck me over because then every single thing would be questioned. pokejungle, tumblr, deviant art, the youtube channels i watch. Even the figure drawing websites i use for practice.

            I’m never any trouble ever but she heres all these horror stories of children being taken away by strangers on the internet and apparently doesnt respect my intelligence enough to think I can probably tell when someone is crossing a line.

          • Bruh, I walk past dark scary places all the time, but walking along the road at night terrifies me for some reason (probably cause I think someone will park their car and force me in)
            Point is, people just need to stop being scared of everything. And that’s coming from someone who gets scared quite easily.

          • True tho, that’s why I avoid it, plus I am afraid of the dark so of course I get to my destination real quick, I do not play around.
            I just think it goes a bit far, especially when it’s with stuff that isn’t that scary/stuff that shouldn’t be scary if you know what you are doing

  17. well hey with Zero Mission… out of the way… I only have Zelda and Specter Knight left to finish and I’m done with all my current playthroughs.

            Y Wonderlocke (took my older brother’s Y copy since my parents got him both X and Y and he barely played X so yeah I have two Y copies)
            and Sun Wonderlocke
            Wedlocke and Sun are before E4, Y Wonderlocke is at Terminus Cave-ish, and W2 I jsut finished grinding and about to face Drayden

          • it’s 4 like yours xD Then again, I have a couple of SBQ that just literally started, but those are meant to be more relaxful, like my shiny hunts
            My struggle is telling myself not to start another one when I have so many going on.
            Like I want to do a Platinum Nuzlocke, but I’m trying to discipline myself to finish at least two on this list before I start it.

  19. Every single masculine Pokémon I get is female
    Every feminine one is male

  23. I just finished Specter of Torment and its probably my favorite of the Shovel Knight stories. He’s my favorite knight and the gameplay is great! Plague Knight took a while for me to really get used to but I picked up Specter Knight right away.

    I always loved the story in Shovel Knight. Never gets in the way of gameplay but characters are developed in a rad way whenever story does come. Hell, story is even worked into gameplay in Specter Knight in a really cool way.

    I had a 98% item completion so I really wanna finish that. I’m guessing its just the last Curio i missed.

    Overall… if you haven’t bought Shovel Knight yet, do it. Its so worth it.

  26. PSA: If you own a PS4 and you don’t mind some blood and gore, Until Dawn is a MUST-PLAY.

    • F Pokemon- This may be hard since I was going for Primary types only for this and least favorite section, so I will count secondary. Anyway. ORICORIO. Idk if Im just going through a phase, but I freaking love Oricorio. Its such a amazing Pokemon. The forms are awesome. Its cute. and I have a shiny one.
      F Leader- Winona. I love her elegance and grace. Shes so pretty too. and in Emerald DD/EQ/Aerial Ace. is op.

      LP- Celesteela- Hate this thing. Its just sooo annoying to battle against. Normally I dont have a problem with stall, but this pokemon is UGLY and stalls.
      LL. Skyla. Meh like most leaders, so shes just my least favorite.

      Thoughts. This may be very bias, but I just LOVE birds. Birds are so cool, so I love flying types. They all have amazing and colorful design, just like birds. They are definitely top half of favorite types.

      • Reminds me of Ledian’s Smogon entry
        “Ledian is totally outclassed and cannot merit a slot on any serious team, as Meowstic and Ninjask do everything that Ledian can better defensively and offensively, respectively. It has terrible offensive stats, which nullifies its large offensive movepool, and a shallow support movepool, along with poor defenses and a 4x weakness to Stealth Rock, making it absolutely worthless on any team.”

    • Favourite Pokemon: It’s a tough one but I’ll go with Zapdos. I love the design and it’s one of the ones I actually teach flying moves to. http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/087/469/f92.gif
      Favourite Leader: Winona (ORAS), I like her team, she also has a pretty fly deign imo. Oh and in the anime she has a shiny Swellow which is nice and different. It might have been Falkner if he actually used Hoothoot in-game.

      Least favourite Pokemon: Mothim, I just feel it’s kinda bland and forgettable.
      Least favourite Leader: Golf woman from SuMo, boring and not a great design imo.

      I like flying types. I often like ones that aren’t just birds like Gliscor etc and would like to see more, like Minior. I think if it were called Wind type it might be better. I don’t like how there is only 1 pure Flying type. I also feel we’ve had more thn enough Normal/Flying and Bug/Flying types now. Other Favourites of this type: Pidgeot (+Mega); Charizard (+Mega Y); Butterfee; Fearow; Farfetch’d; Scyther; Gyarados; Aerodactyl (+Mega); Farticuno; Moltres; Dragonite; Togetic; Crobat; Xatu; Hoppip line; Murkrow line; Skarmory; Gligar line; Lugia; Yanma line; Ho-Oh; Mantine; Delibird; Taillow line; Swablu line; Salamence; Rayquaza (+Mega); Starly line; Drifloon line; Shaymin Sky; Archen line; Emolga, Ducklett line; Rufflet line; Vullaby line; Tornadus-T, Thundurus(both); Landorus-T; Hawlucha; Fletchinder; Noibat line; Yveltal; Rowlet; Pikipek; Oricorio Baille and Sensu; and Minior.

  32. So here’s what happened. I made it through the four trainers on top of Realgam Tower without a problem. Then I made it to Nascour and got completely blasted apart…I could only take out Blaziken. And apparently the final final guy is even harder than that. This is extremely tough, it’s not even funny.

    Reply
    • And another thing: I have to go through the four trainers AGAIN, EVERY time I lose to either Nascour or Evice. I don’t think even Dark Souls could match the amount of BS in this endgame.

        • Yeah I did, it actually wasn’t that hard either. I believe I’ve captured every Pokémon I could have possibly captured throughout the game so far (40). Now when I go back to the trainers, they have a new Pokémon replacing it. I’m using Feraligatr lv. 53, Shadow Miltank lv. 48, Shadow Tropius lv. 49, Entei lv. 44, Shadow Skarmory lv. 47, Hariyama lv. 42.

      • There’s speeding up and then there’s rushing it, literally four big events in a row is a bit rushed especially since they’re each regular length episodes and Lana still needs her Z-Ring developed and stuff, Ash still has a team of first evos when he’s nearly a third through the game’s plot, and the characters need development and catches

    Using only Pokémon based on animals in your country (for smaller countries) or state/prefecture/etc for bigger countries (like ‘murica). You can only use ‘pet’ as justification if it’s a common pet in your area, and/or if you actually have an animal that Pokémon can represent

        And with the combined power of the Golden Gauntlets with each hand holding the Ball and Chain or Megaton Hammer makes him a lethal contender

        The downside is slow outside Boulder rolling and if the magic in the mask depletes the form falls apart

    • When people won’t accept that some people like certain Pokemon and not others and it’s actually OK as that’s their personal opinion.

      Saying a Pokemon is trash because it doesn’t perform that well competitively.

      Saying how bad earlier games are basically because they aren’t as good in their view as newer ones. For example people say how bad gen 1 was in direct comparison to the games of today, without taking into account both limitations of the time and the fact that they didn’t know the success it would be. Also if those games weren’t any good we wouldn’t be here talking about Pokemon today.

    • Basically, my fam would be acquaintances with Lysandre, be influenced by him and eventually kinda brainwashed by him in a cult like fashion. Bc inner Flare circle is probs more like a cult tbh. However Pokéme is used as a grunt because he likes battling so much (sisters are left out of Flare stuff because younger) and due to this is kept out of the loop. Learns of Flare’s ideals, but conflicted, continues to serve Lysandre in hopes that he isn’t being literal about his genocide stuff.

      His family are distraught after Lysandre dies/trapped forever, but I’m low-key glad, get disowned, become a speaker travelling the world warning about the dangers of such teams and trying to prevent young people from joining them

  53. NEW IDEA!!! What if the reason they’re doing the trials in such a weird pacing is because once Ash get’s done with them the normal Pokemon league opens up in Alola. If what everyone is theorizing about there being gyms in USUM is right, what if that’s the reason they’re doing the school thing for Ash this time? Have him do the trials where he’s basically stuck at school most of the time and then once they introduce the gyms THEN he can be cut loose and travel like normal. That way they don’t burn off too many middle ground towns and make it seem like he’s traveling the region twice.The whole school thing was a weird one to begin with and while I actually really do like many of the episodes I feel like the formula they have set up now wouldn’t work very well for any other sort of thing. The only problem with my theory is then it might feel like the gyms will feel rushed themselves. They always do a late series amendment for each gen’s adventure so I really do wonder what USUM bring to the table that will be incorporated into the show.

      • Last boss was pretty hard but that’s why you you use the reaper. I was level 79 with yoshitsune which help a lot.

        the trick is to use
        concentrate+blazing hell with ann and charge+agnystra with ryuji to destroy the arms.

        Also having Max star allows you to switch out party members mid battle which helps a lot when you run low on HP.

        Make sure you always debilitate him with Trumpeter and never let him use his ultimate attack with more than two arms.

        Reply
        • I don’t have Agnystra, I do have the ability to switch out teamates mid-battle, but it’s tough considering I’m super limited on healing, SP, and revival items.

          Reply
          • Which level are you on? And what persons are you using?

            Having morgana means you don’t need healings items plus if you can switch out mid batte you don’t need sp recovery items either. In my fight all of my characters ran out of sp so i was left using physical skills with ryuji haru and joker with morgana constantly​ healing

          • I have Joker, Ann, Makoto, and Morgana to heal, but I don’t have any SP items to restore it. I think I’m Level 70 something.

          • Don’t use Joker or Ann to heal.
            They can do the most damage so don’t waste their sp.

            I started off with Ryuji,Ann and makoto. After makato and ann ran out of sp i just switched them with morgana and haru.

            Also equip SP adhesive accesory if you have it.

I’m sure it will be next week because they’ll want to match Corocoro…unless they’re skipping this month. Which shouldn’t be possible.

    Reply
    • I wanna say we heard something about every two weeks. So they’d announce something is coming and then two weeks later(ish) they’d reveal what it was. It’s very odd that 4 months away we still don’t have an info day announced. I wonder what the hold up is. Even if USUM is basically like Platinum you’d think they’d have enough to show off for at least once a month.

      Reply
      • I don’t think people realize just how soon these games are coming out. It’s a similar timeframe that Switch games have had this year (ex: MK8D and ARMS, only a few months from release). So there’s definitely a way to cohesively describe the meaningful additions to this game, which must exist because at this point I do not feel as hyped for USUM as I was with Platinum and B2W2. I want them to change that.

        Reply
          • That would make sense, but historically it’s not the Game Freak way. It’s clear that they’re trying a new strategy this year with two big release days this year, September 22 and November 17. I think there isn’t much more to be said about Pokken and Gold/Silver, so they should be focusing on advertising USUM much better than they have at this point. I don’t know, I’ve just noticed changes this year.

        • I think the problem is that we really don’t know anything about them yet. It’s hard to get excited about a game you know nothing about. Plus in this case we’re in a spot where people were hoping for something different. People (myself included) were hoping that if we revisited Alola again it’d be a brand new story. That or a DP remake…….Either way right now it almost feels like this is a reg 3rd game and that doesn’t jive with me. I’ll hold out for more info, but I really hope they can make these games worth buying. I’d prefer not playing through SM only to have Necrozma forms shoe horned in. lol

          Reply
          • I’m pretty sure that the way they’ve talked about the game is fundamentally flawed. I’m pretty sure it will have a new story but run through the same characters, with some new additions. I really do think it will be a 50/50 split between Platinum and B2W2 in terms of dual release, new forms, and slight improvements overall.

          • I hope so. I loved SM, but since it was so story heavy I really don’t want to ruin my original journey in Alola by basically playing through it AGAIN, but just with different Pokemon and a slight different ending. If I wanted to play that story again I’d just replay SM lol

    • If we don’t get anything early July then that means they’ve only got four months to get info…. And if they space their info out, we might not actually get much info… :0

          Maybe something like a more traditional CtF? Where both teams have one and stuff?

          • I actually had typed that I wanted a traditional CTF mode in my original post, but deleted it because I thought it’d be too close to rainmaker. I think we should get a CTF mode with specially designed CTF stages so chargers aren’t OP in that mode.

  64. So question to People actively watching the most recent Japanese dubbed eps of the show: Did Ash take the water trial? If it ended the way people say it did. It almost sounds like he basically didn’t. Any clarification? lol

  65. We’re only a few hours away from the premiere of Pokemon Movie 20. Reports should come rushing in about the contents of that end teaser, which should be interesting. In other news, the Direct is in less than 15 minutes!

  66. That was one of the worst directs I’ve ever seen.
    – Only like 3 minutes of it was new stuff. The rest was the announcer explaining basic splatoon mechanics
    – The cool new stuff isn’t even coming at launch
    – The squid sisters’ replacements are terrible, as is their catchphrase (“stay off the hook, don’t get cooked” replaces “stay fresh”). I’m not even a huge fan of the SS, but the new ones are way worse.
    – They replaced cookie cutter characters with new cookie cutter characters (I don’t mean the SS here)
    – We can now quickly scroll past SHELDON’S TEXT but not the intro?

    Maybe I’m being too critical here, so I’ll at least list the things I thought were cool:
    – the new bubbler
    – the umbrella weapon
    – splatfest demo!!

    Overall though, this direct made me less hyped for the game. When it was announced, I had faith that they could make the game worthy of the “2” in the title, but throughout this direct it became apparent that it was the same gameplay with some tweaks. I know “if it isn’t broken don’t fix it,” but the core of Splatoon lies in the online modes, which are exactly the same as Splatoon 1.

      • I think the catchphrase is really cringy. I mean, so is “Stay Fresh,” but it’s iconic for the series at the point. Plus it’s snappy and short, so that’s a plus.
