Today marks Pokémon GO’s first ever real life event!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yktrQAJNbAc
REWARDS UPDATE: Despite difficulties at GO Fest, players around the world have completed all the Window Challenges and unlocked legendaries! Lugia will be given out to all GO Fest ticket holders, and Lugia raid battles will start to roll out worldwide over the next two days. Since Team Mystic contributed the most during the challenges, Articuno Raid Battles will start to roll out in the same time frame as well. In addition to the legendary birds, the following GO Fest bonuses will be active around the globe for the next 48 hours:
- Double Stardust
- Double Candy
- Double XP
- Increased Pokémon encounters
- Reduced hatching distance
- Reduced buddy distance
Located in Grant Park on the coast of Chicago, Illinois, Pokémon GO Fest promises plenty of Pokémon fun for ticket holders:
- Catch a wide variety of Pokémon, including some that have never been seen before in Grant Park (regional exclusives, as well as Unown are strongly hinted at)
- Unlock the exclusive Pokémon GO Fest Chicago medal for your profile page
- Take advantage of the Pokémon GO Fest walking course, lined with PokéStops that award special 2 km Eggs which can only be obtained in Grant Park
- Cool off and recharge in one of the three team lounges, where you’ll meet your fellow Instinct, Mystic, or Valor teammates
- Commemorate the experience by snapping photos with your favorite Pokémon at the many photo opportunities around the park
- And much more!
Can’t attend? No worries – you can still take part in the fun! The millions of PoGO players across the globe can work together with the thousands of trainers in the park to complete challenges throughout the day and unlock amazing in-game rewards globally! Earlier this week Niantic revealed that the first ever Legendary Pokémon will be one of these rewards – but it will only appear in Grant Park if trainers around the world successfully meet the capture goals set throughout the weekend. If trainers in Chicago manage to defeat the legendary, it will start appearing in Raid Battles everywhere.
A special Twitch and YouTube livestream (see above) for players that are unable to attend is available to view for the latest news coming out of Pokémon GO Fest! Including Challenge Window updates, exclusive interviews, and the reveal of the first Legendary Pokémon!
Will you be taking part in the global awards and challenges, or are you one of the lucky few who will be attending the festivities in Chicago?
DID ANYONE SEE THAT STRANGER THINGS TRAILER BECAUSE IT WAS A REALLY GOOD ONE
This is getting ridiculous https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a43cb0136d07e0c3079028aad12a95b8eb4cfb373a875cbc814997345b24dd85.png
Two in one area?!
Lucky :0
I didn’t go after them I’m at The Clevland ohio Indians baseball game
Oh nice
I’m so sorry
Eh best stuff I saw nearby was a Pidgey and pidgeotto and caught Nidoking downtown so not so bad of a vacation with go
No I meant I’m sorry you had to see the Indians play
What in the world is that first thing??
Electabuzz raid 🙂
It looks so weird from a distance I guess lol. I literally could not make it out
Electabuzz
Catch all the Articunos lol
Inkbrush is so much better than the Octobrush
siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh………………i am bored, bummed and burnt out on splat2
and i gotta do groceries for the week, hopefully when i get back more people will be on
The games been out for two days and you burnt yourself out already?
i’ve been playing nonstop trying to rank up
I took a day off yesterday just so I didn’t get burnt out lol.
worth it though just hit rank 14
You mean level?
rank level same thing
Not really because ranked mode is a thing
So for all the different “playstyles” in pokemon which type would you use for each Different for each. I’ll start for an example.
Gym Leader- Electric
Elite Four- Poison
Coordinator- Dragon
Trial Captain- Fairy
Evil Team Admin- Ghost
Does that make sense? Can you guys think of any more? What would yours be?
Can I just do fairy for all of them?
“Different for EACH”
🙁
i’m flummoxed
Fine I will just ask a different question
Gym Leader – Fighting
Elite Four – Ground
Coordinator – Dragon
Trial Captain – Rock
Team Admin – Fire
Did it for you bish ?
Still don’t get it
Imagine you were a Gym Leader, what type would your team be? Imagine you were an Elite Four, what type would your team be?
And this so on but you choose a different type each time
Gym Leader – Grass
Elite Four – Normal
Coordinator – Ice
Trial Captain – Ghost
Team admin – Fire
Gym Leader – Poison
E4 – Grass
Coordinator – Fairy
Trial Captain – Fire
Admin – Ghost
Leader: Flying
E4: Dragon
Coordinator: Fighting
Trial Captian: Water
Admin: Psychic
/If you were a trial Captain? What would your trial be?? who’s the totem? What can it call?
Totem Toxapex
Trial is to be quizzed on different Pokémon’s poison properties in a zoo, battling said Poison type. Totem Toxapex is battled where the Mareanie holding pool overlooks the sea, jumping into the tank to fight you.
Gets a boost to all stats, can summon Dragalge and Golisopod
The power up for 30 second head start is so good
Context would be nice.
In Splatoon 2 there is a gear ability that makes you move faster for 30 seconds
Sigh, no gyms near me in this tiny Scottish village. And no way I can rush off to the nearest ones in the next 2 days. So annoyed that I’m gonna miss out on the legendary Pokemon. :'(
Sucks that you can’t get it, at least it isn’t as bad as it was a couple of years back Pokémon wise for events :v
Back in my day…. God, I remember when I had to travel over four hours to the big city , just to go to an event. Now every event is just done through game stores and it’s easy as pie. :’)
Ah well, you’re right at least. Hopefully the next legendary event wil be announced more in advance and I can plan to visit the nearest town in advance.
Even in the big city it was super annoying, especially since it was specific stores and the like. Think it was a whole UK wide issue tbh XD
God yeah, I remember going all that way and it was so pitiful, just a tiny little area in a shopping mall, with a TV playing a few Pokemon episodes and 2 people with link cables and a device giving you the Pokemon.
I only remember going into a shop having my DS out and having to ask at the counter, the codes are such a life saver :0
This was back in the GBA days, so it was done by connecting your link cable to a device.
Wait I got a freshness bonus I’m Splatoon… what does that mean
Apparently it’s like a winning streak bonus of some sort
It means that you’re more easily getting chopped up and eaten as calamari.
I feel cool in a dead game

Only 1600? Not good enough
I mean thats what its mostly gonna be? Nobody is getting higher then 1700 it seems
:/
I’m having a really hard time going back to dualies after destroying with the ink brush >.>
You ink so?
Fairy plz
i’m rotating regular splat roller and krak-on
i’ve grown fond of curling swimming but i also like putting beakons (i mean i’m the only one who acknowledges them)
but the Slashdown vs Baller is hard, they both suck…..I MISS MY KRAKEN IT WAS MY BEST DEFENSE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzunhFiML3I
This raises so many questions. Why is Fire Punch SE on Tentaquil? Is Shadow Pikachu secretly Reggie? Where did the sponsors go?
Until next time on Pokémon USUM!
Ugh….I really wanna try out raids for the first time, but I don’t want to waste my pass just in case Lugia or Articuno show up……….I passed like 5 different active raids and all of them were normal mons
How do you get new passes? Can you get them from stops?
You get one a day for free or you can buy passes from the store
How to use the inkbrush

We do not sexualize the octopus girl in this house
We love and respect her
i see nothing sexualized
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/0bd046b4e18911aac005ea5133fd2c75d2dacbe3232d457e1884573d2eefe149.gif
look if your mind’s that deep in the gutter that’s your fault
That’s obviously meant to be sexual lol, I honestly wonder if you attempt to troll
no one eats ice cream like that unless youre in a dairy themed porn
Do you see the way she’s holding it? Bitch gonna drop the rest of her porn cream on the floor smh
What a waste. People in africa could’ve eaten that floor ice cream
I scream, you scream, we all scream for severe negligence of resources
Sure thing, and the sky is orange as well
Is there a way to change your weapon in Splatoon without having to exit every time?
Nada
Ugh that’s stupid
Playing Splatoon 1 and God Splosher is best girl
Lusamine judging you https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9d846735a3841c10aa5e0bead54b7844b7f79e26a45157884904902c8c227c44.jpg
Just like every other women i’ve met
Sounds like they are really lusamean
they often are…
This is actually really good, especially since you’ve only done the rough lines. Don’t want to sound dickishly pretentious, but I do feel obliged to mention that her breasts are uneven and her hair looks a bit off, but tbh it’s actually really good ?
i feel the face is too ovoid, it needs some roundness and a much clearer complexion
i draw people with uneven tits and fucked up hair so much its like a signature at this point its lie
“hey bob who drew this picture?”
“oh well if you looks at the tits they are uneven which clearly means starstorm drew it”
nah but for real I’ll fix it. 😛
uneven tits are the worst
Meh, almost all women have uneven tits. But maybe not that uneven.
well yeah thats the problem. its wayyyy past the point of normal in my art its not ok
Breasts and hair are hard to draw, don’t worry, your like what, fifteen rn? You’ll get better and better the more you keep practicing, so don’t sweat it too much! :0
I asked an irl friend if I could show you one of her drawings she’s redone to like show you that you’re gonna like wicked improve and stuff it you keep at it, hopefully it doesn’t sound patronising because you’ve probs heard all this stuff before
http://dusia-chan.tumblr.com/post/161249494924/draw-this-again-2015-2017
wow, her style really changed in just one year, and we can even see how she took another year improving that new style
Her styles became gradually more realistic and I really like it :0
Daaaaamn your friend is amazing .0.
I gotta remind myself of that pretty often. Just flipping to the front of my sketchbook or looking at art from a couple years ago really helps me out. It can be easy to not see improvement because it builds up
that drawing reminds me I gotta work on digital art more too >.>
Digital’s a really good skill to learn because besides your programme and hardware you’re not constantly paying to replenish resources, although hand drawn is definitely more impressive if done right imo
traditional is also just so much easier. Digital has such a learning curve. I really shouldn’t be avoiding it like I am
Barber: “What do you want fam?”
Lusamine: “I kinda want a side fringe but don’t know what to do with the rest of my hair”
Barber: “Say no more.”
i think if a barber ever said fam to me i would throw their barbicide in their face and run like hell
I always though she wassupposed to resemble Snorunt
https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/6/6b/361Snorunt.png/250px-361Snorunt.png
But then I was confused because she didn’t have a Froslass.
EVEN THOUGH SHE FROZE POKEMON AND KEPT THEM AS TROPHYS JUST LIKE FROSLASS???
She has the most ridiculous hair of all the female ingame antagonists that I can remember and that is saying a lot.
Japan likes to draw characters whose hair defy the law of gravity
Reminds me of one of the first episodes of YuGiOh abridged, “your hair must be at least this ridiculous to be able to enter the boat”.
Here’s the vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NYd1Y2v7OA
HOW DID WE SURVIVE THIS POTATO QUALITY 240P YOUTUBE VIDEOS 10 YEARS AGO
“Aw yeah, this video has 480p available and was shot by a real camera, not that shitty VGA phone thingie”
I remember that scene, I watched every episode of the series already 😛
Just like everyone else said, the hair is kinda of a mess and has irregular breasts, but the sketch is pretty impressive, you are quite good at drawing Lusamine
I hate her hair. Like no joke I despise it. I was drawing off of some references I found and decided to do Lusamine since it matched her body type but as soon as I got to the hair I went into panic mode
Im about to post a fixed* version
*the hair probably still sucks because I have no idea what to do with it
Drawing her hair must be though :/ But I’d recommend you looking at her 3d model if that helps
oh thats actually a really good idea
Ver2
Now with even breasts and updated expression with minor changes to the hair. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/193dbb0a0fe07424368df1753f3f3151aa155a7728f2129e09bbdadb910cd2cf.jpg
Definitely much better in the breasts aspect, but holy fuck whoever made her hair must be sadomasochists towards fan artists
I want to strangle the person who designed her and make her have a more manageable hair style in USUM
The person is definitely more sadomasochist towards Lusamine’s barber
Don’t really know, you just have to cut at an angle and keep going. Doesn’t really matter if it’s not straight or anything.
the face still needs work
she has a hooker face
Drawing faces is haaaaaaard
Especially since Star has this semi-realistic drawing style going on in this one, which I really like :0
I mean I guess? The main issue is that its kinda slanted. Like If you removed the hair it would look like a Picasso painting but not in a good way. I tried to correct it in this one but idk if it really came through.
I like the shape though. I think it conveys her personality
Yeah, now the breasts are better :0
still too small tho
maybe F cups and then we’ll be good
I’m not that kind of fan artist, Earthen.
(yep I just rediscovered the bold thing for disqus)
That’s a bold statement
it never hurts to practice
‘It never hurts to practice selling out pandering to a sleazy audience rather than relying on my own skill and integrity’
OK, it’s better to let the discussion brest for a while :).
You’re just milking these puns
It’s better to study from life and not from deviant art
awwww but i know a ton of cool artists from there
Feyzer
Trinity Fate
Danyannto
Jackurai
Ayami6
Now lets filter all the fetish and inappropriate artists
Now, how many are left?
who’s pure anymore honestly
Me :^]
just means more room for me in Hell
I’m not pure,but I’m not dirty either.
I’m just in the middle.
Impure =/= Fetish artist
Most people outside of your bubble?
You say that like I’m going to look them up
use / instead 😉
Yeah, but what circumference?
Too small for you, her breast’s size are similar enough to her in-game counterpart
And can we stop talking about breasts? :Y
This is the breast conversation we’ve had in a long time
Breasts heavily
Well I regret not being here for the past 15 minutes
Any reason why it makes you uncomfortable? After all, three billion people on earth have them.
They don’t make me uncomfortable, is just the fact that we’re talking about it quite a lot 😛
i find no fault in this subject
Of course you don’t
It’s some kind of lighter version of Godwin’s Law, isn’t it?
I did nazi this coming
even F cups are too small
i’m more used to them being larger then the epcot center
So you’re into cripples? Because breasts that big are gonna snap a spine kiddo
well their attached to bodies that accommodate them
???
If anything they’re too big
<3
Other than the impossible-to-draw-af hair, it looks really nice 🙂
http://i.imgur.com/wkF96JM.jpg
ok like im sitting here trying to figure her hair out and I just dont understand.
Where does it part? In the back? That… doesnt make sense
She has more volume in the back but how does that even work?
And hair isn’t square like that. It would never bunch up in this shape
It has to be a wig
I feel bad for anyone trying to cosplay her too
i mean they would probably have to make the hair like out of fabric
Ding ding https://68.media.tumblr.com/97dc7d906df141c3177ad63cefb1a22c/tumblr_oluidyaVcd1s1hi60o1_1280.jpg
yay what do i win?
Eternal suffering.
already there
Yeah it’s rough
It’s a cape
a cap you wear onyour head.
like when you wear a hoodie but you dont put are arms in the sleeves
Hoodcape(C) 2017 trademarked by Aether Foundation
Wow I can spell gud
No capes
Hairspray. Lots of it. Enough to kill all Pokémon in a region.
or create a hole in the ozone bigger than Kanye West’s ego

The hair and the body are two separate interdimensional entities. Only plausible explanation
Also
https://pics.me.me/how-are-yon-children-literally-what-i-see-when-i-12515214.png
Lusamine’s a psycho bitch because she sold her soul to Giratina for a sick weave
There are times when you just gotta accept that logic/reason does not exist in Pokemon.
This is one of those times.
I guess so but it still drives me crazy
@BigGuyI:disqus explain the logic in that there weave ?
it might be layered
-_-
Earthen you don’t need to analyse the logistics of anime hair
everyone knows anime follicles defile all known laws of science
Just like Pokemon 😉
ehhhhhh
I mean, Pokemon does have some real-life science and culture to the designs and cities and whatnot, but overall it’s a game that isn’t real life.
That’s how I see it.
Yeah, it’s pretty much real life mixed with fantasy
You’d have to be a magician for a hairstylist to do layers like that, if that’s what it was
she probably has hair plugs to make it up
That doesn’t make any sense, considering it’s a type of hair transplant for bald men
Favourite hairstyle out of any Pokémon character? :p
Male protagonist in BW2, love this messy hairstyle
Moon’s hairstyle, like it is my current hairstyle and it always looks so nice 🙂
Courtney. I like the pink a lot and the short hair is really cute
You’re all objectively wrong ? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/fe6000d97f4f9c9cea118312d9894e6a252f9f910a3be81635b3d63e2e260874.jpg
Can’t argue with that
Oh shit wadup
But https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a2066780d7669aa186d1af35ae8c34659acd79730e823579544d2dc858864c45.jpg
Counterargument: Ampharos needs to Mega to get a weave that great
Counterargument: Dugtrio is cheating since it has 3 different hairstyles at once
well maybe if Ampharos had more heads it could have more hair
Now I’m imagining a three-headed ampharos. Someone go draw it
reminds me when we were looking up crappy sonic OCs
I still see Cerberus Amy Rose……in my head……….
F U C C
It’s still a fabulous hair style

i am one of the few people who genuinely likes Iris
Maybe the only one

I just like her
-i like her design
-i like her character
-she actually has a backbone
-and she actually battles
But she has the “Type specialists having pokemon of other types in the anime” syndrome
well she got more over time
Cutest Pokémon?

..wat
Would upvote but Inci is in the place of Jynx
Inci makes Jynx look beautiful
Masculine Tiger Heel makes Nicki minaj look beautyful?
Putting muscles on a cat isn’t a good idea
i dunno they look cool on the real thing

Bruh
i mean realistically speaking its a quite a marvel how powerful a tiger really is
I know I am voting u up.
And putting a body on the Giant Peach is?
What about the dancers from Zootopia?
I don’t like Inci being in the ugly part as well, but the joke is too great to ignore and it was a JelloApocalypse reference as well
BUT THE SCARIEST PART OF THIS STORY IS THAT WE WAS YOU
AND YOU WERE SKELETON
AANND WROOTE THISS
Truly terrifying ·_·
It’s the second best part of that video. Second only to the title of the One Direction one
Humanz just hate they didn’t know y they did that they just flow the common pattern.
Or she just finds Incineroar ugly because that’s her opinion? Unless you’re on about Jynx in which case I feel it is overhated tbh
Does Incineroar consider edgy?

It needs to be as clear as Dae

Gallade – Galladant
Aggron – Churchsteel (the best name ever) (churchill + steel)
Mega Lopunny – Thicc Trainer
Absol- Airsoul
Idk
Salamence-BROKEN
Agreed
Venusaur – Rafflesiasaur https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rafflesia_arnoldii, Junglesaur, something like that I think.
