The Pokémon GO Safari Zone Events that were scheduled to take place across Europe on August 5th (Copenhagen and Prague) and August 12th (Stockholm and Amsterdam) have officially been postponed.
No doubt in reaction to the recent Pokémon GO Fest in Chicago, Niantic has decided to delay the events until an undecided, later date in the Fall. However, the September 16th Safari Event (Oberhausen, Paris, and Barcelona) and the Yokohama Pikachu Outbreak event on August 16th will continue as planned.
To compensate, Niantic will have Pokémon spawns that are rarely seen in Europe to appear in game in certain European cities for a brief time. You can read the announcement in full at their official Pokémon GO blog.
Do you think Niantic is making the right move to postpone, and regroup to “to guarantee the best possible gameplay experience for European Trainers?” Were you planning on going to one of the cancelled events?
First, I really miss safari games in mainseries games
Your post is so cliché
Bite me
I do too. I would like if they added a stun spore or sleep powder type option, I’ve lost too many things to fleeing. I have caught 2 shiny Sandslash in Safari Zones though.
I do too, they were fun (And FS sucked badly) too bad its considered poaching by individuals
Even though in the Anime even the safari zone was primarily uncatchable cause Police would just be there ready to shoot you for trying to catch Chansey’s
Dam all these articles about pkmn go.
Pokémon Go Away.
The safari zone holds a special place in my heart
its the only place you can find Rhyhorn

Cerulean Cave, Victory Road (x2), Route 214, Route 227, Stark Mountain, Johto safari zone, trade with Brock, white forest, trade with Yancy/Curtis, Hoenn Safari zone, blush mountain ?
Red, Blue and RSE ?
Trade? With Brock?
HGSS
Oh never knew that
i’m just talking about red and blue
Tis jok
you suck at jokes
You suck in general ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Really empty here
That’s mornings here for ya
As empty as my heart :T
Another Pokemon GO Article? ISnt there anything else we can discuss. Then again we would just talk about something different in the comments anyway.
Hoenn Pokemon in GO when? I bet it will be a LONG while since a lot of people quit pokemon at hoenn

Why do i get the feeling that USUM arent going to sell too well? (Especially if just a third version) like where’s the marketing? Comes out in like 3 months and we know nothing
Same happened to BW2, still sold millions
Nah B2W2 still gave more time and they were sequels. They also sold half of what BW did
it came out 4 months after it was announced?
Let’s hope USUM iare sequels too
Its already confirmed to be a alternate story not a continuation
What if they’re a continuation of an alternate story
It’s game freak, that can mean anything
It means Alternate story like they said 😮
Not really, if it’s a sequel with simmilar plot points it could be considered an alternate story
how would it be a sequel then? if it has similar plot points
Lillie’s daughter finds a pre evolution of Necrozma, travels with the main character and his friend. Sequel and an Alternate story.
its not gonna be sequel, so get disappointed then
We don’t know
you realize alternate story is like a Alternate universe, similarly what 3rd games do?
Then why didn’t they call it something that made it clear? An Alternate version of the story for example
They did…. “these games offer a ALTERNATE STORY, taking place in the world of Pokemon sun and Pokemon Moon “
Alternate is pretty clear, it’s either the story but changed or a whole different story, not a continuation at all
yea a sequel would they would of said “continue the story of Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon in this all new adventure”
Alternate = other
It might take place after Sun and Moon, but if anything, the ‘alternate’ implies that it won’t continue SuMo’s story.
It didn’t? We got actual news info like two months before it came out
And this game might have new things like Alola Forms and new Megas (although I only think new Alolans and that’s a possible), new Pokes should sell better than a new story
I’m just saying that marketing is directly related to sales. The more they market, the more money they’ll make. They’ve done practically zero marketing at this point, and I’m not impressed. Yeah, it might sell well because it IS Pokemon, but I don’t think that’s an excuse for this weird anti-marketing thing they have going on right now
You’ll be sick of the marketing in november
I’d rather that than not be excited at all
Second versions never sell too well, but it’s Pokemon so it’ll still sell
What daytime stuff gives speed EVs in Sun?
Ribombee gives 2, I’ll try and look for a 3
I’d prefer it be first stage in case a shiny pops up during the SOS.
just use the Islands
They’re shit tho
no dey ain’t
i use them for my Ev training since they removed hordes
SOS is better, the called ‘mon have double yield. Add in Power items and Pokerus and it’s much faster than the isles could ever be.
huh……..i never knew that
and u can find a shiny 😮
I don’t have time.
When we finally get news, I don’t wanna see nobody complain it wasn’t enough lol
the news will be: there’s a new flavour of masaladas in USUM! But we won’t tell you what it is!
Hello guys!
HELLO!
Alola!
*Hurls a axe*
*dodgs and telportz behind yu*
nothin personnel kid
Oh hai
Hai dare

Ayyy
‘Ello mate, wanna drink some tea and watch some good ol’ tellie?
You ‘avin a Giraffe?
I’m not this good at speaking British, I don’t underdtand lol
It’s cockney rhyming slang for ‘having a laugh’. Frankly almost nobody here actually speaks like that, it’s mostly a dead dialect.
Yeah, some things have survived from it (I’ve heard ‘having a giraffe’ several times) but it’s dying more than everyone here’s attention spans :p
I use it only when I’m being sarcastic, as I find this one in particular to be funny sometimes.
:3
Sup
I want Farfetch to get a Mega Evolution and for GameFreak to release it accidentally
A huge leek
Eyyyyyyy… I still wanna Alolan Farfetch’d in UsUm, Kanto Alolan forms for the win!
I’ll give this pun a solid leek/10
+ It got me a chuckle
+ Is a farfetch pun
+ Unexpected
– Leak pun
– It’s a pun
Farfetch’d is on of my favourites https://68.media.tumblr.com/2e5467bc9732cbc66497d7c98b1e88f0/tumblr_nmeq93xc7U1un7b5io1_500.gif

Farfetch’d is an underrated, undiscovered wonder
If only it weren’t so weak. It has some pretty good moves like Leaf Blade though.
It needs an Evo or a stronger form. It just looks like a 1st stage of a 2/3 stager.
Yeah, I can imagine it gaining Fighting type or maybe even Grass if it fuses with the Leek somehow.
Hawlucha shuld be Farfetch’d evo (it could be with few changes to its design)
Nah, I think Farfetch’d should become some sort of Leek wielding Samurai or Kendo master, or perhaps the Leek becomes a Bo staff or Spear and it’s a Sōjutsu master.
That idea is kinda over used tho… Maybe if gen 8 is UK, it could get an evo, cause leeks are one of the national symboles of Wales
Well it uses the Leek like a Sword so it would be one of the most common ideas.
It could be in an UK region and use it like a knight sword (what wre those called)… It could fight a mon based on the dragon from Wales’ flag
Uh, it depends, I guess it could be like a broadsword. Leekscalibur.
Ehhh, they don’t have a lot in common
I’ll just leave this here
http://img07.deviantart.net/1340/i/2012/189/d/a/fakemon___moana__banshriek_by_trueform-d4yl3jw.png
How far it’ll go
Okay Okay, I See what happening, yeah
Wow that new Disney movie looks different
I think it’s meant to be like ‘moaner’, but that was my first thought too.
http://img.youtube.com/vi/IHdm7UWinLo/mqdefault.jpg
Mona (like Mona Lisa) + Moan
That too.
What type do you guys use for Monotype usually? What Pokemon do you have on that Monotype team?
Haven’t done one yet, so none
Ooh, in game or Showdown? :000
Showdown
Haven’t done one in ages but back in BW OU I had a pretty good water mono rain team, my Rain Dish Tentacruel was bae
It is very cut throat
you can’t win with your favorites half the time and have to sometimes cheap it out
but then again sometimes people expect one thing out of a certain pokemon and ends up being dominated
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7monotype-592189003
Depends what the situation
if competitive Ground Fighting Fire and Rock
and in game only Ground but considered Fighting monos in the past
For me I like to use an Ice Mono Usually consisting of Froslass, Walrein, A-Ninetales, A-Sandslash/ Beartic, Avalugg, and Weavile.
very predictable honestly
you just gotta destroy the Fox and the rest will fall
my Ground Mono does well against Ice Monos its all a matter of getting your weather on the field but without it you crumble
Actually, the only one who needs the hail really is Sandslash. I just set up Aurora Veil for the team, but that’s mostly for my Stockpile Walrein.
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7monotypesuspecttest-568303984
Hmm Walrein scares me a little with that overall bulk but then again my specialty is just hitting it until it breaks also Seismitoad walls it completely
True lol
Steel Monotype
Scizor
Metagross
Heatran
Celesteela
Ferothorn
Aegislash
ARGHHHH EVERYTHING I HATE
I swear Ground needs to have better access to fire because thats the only way to kill that stupid pod and bug alongside the space bitch
What don’t you hate
things that die easily by my hand
i mean take it from my viewpoint my only means of killing Ferrothorn and Scizor and celesteela is Nidoking because he’s the only one that can actually do something about it and if he dies from something then it’s just an annoying game of letting Celesteela sub and leech seed and relying on subpar Rock Slides and Stone Edges
I would never use a Leech Seed strategy on Celesteela.
…That’s Ferothorn’s Job
then you’re using Celesteela wrong friendo
Meh I’ve never even used Celesteela . I just tacked it on there cos I couldn’t think of another OU Steel Type. Probably put Skarmory there to screw with you even more…
just means i two shot it with Flamethrower or if you try to get clever switch into Heatran to get a Flash Fire boost but i instead go for Tbolt and then Earth Power it down and just keep doing that
I’ve fought so many steel monos and they’re all the same
Lol this was my exact point before and you shot me down.
Don’t let Nidoking die easily and you’re golden.
I though Ground was strong against Steel.
A well played LO Nidoking destroys this team.
Unless Mega Metagross
it is but the bigger walls absorbs ground attacks and is immune completely
and if i can’t kill the Scizor it megas and buffs with SD and roost and can spam Bullet Punch and Bug Bite and kill a lot
SD/Roost bulky Mega Scizor is amazing to be honest (or used to be last gen)
that’s why i need to kill it fast and that means making sure Nidoking is alive and not have his sash broken because that focus sash saves my butt ALL THE TIME
If there will be a UK region I want Electric type mons based on the neon yellow police
The what now?
Just humor the poor fool
Police officers who wear those neon yellow vests
Whyyy
Yellow = Electric
Everybody knows that smh
how does that mean electric
They tase you.
Mons based on this?
http://c8.alamy.com/comp/ER96BC/a-male-traffic-police-officer-in-bright-yellow-jacket-with-high-powered-ER96BC.jpg
Yes cause wynaut
Is not about why not, is about why
Could be cool, Electric/Fighting could help Officers Jennys
I want to go into the store where there is one aisle full of strong alcohol and there’s this trainer standing there “Oi mate, wanna get some booze, bruv?”.
Actually so annoyed, my Wi-Fi’s been fine all day but then it fucks up the second I try and go on competitive overwatch, just when I was about to win 🙂
Phew, got back on and won, but I won’t be touching comp again for a while >:(
Well i’ll be back, i think tomorrow i’m gonna binge watch the entire series of Rick and Morty to get me hyped up for season 3
Damn Monotype is packed with Dark type teams
Imagine Mega Celesteela
its just a rocket ship

Nah fam jack everything into defenses at watch smogon scream

A Mega ultra beast would have a 670 BST ?

Got something fun to do:
So go to this website posted below and generate a single random Pokemon (No legends tho). Has to be a fully evolved mon, and which ever Pokemon you get you have to make a Mega Evolution/Regional Variant. If it already has one of these you can make another one.
https://randompokemon.com
SLURPUFF 😀 I LOVE SLURPUFF
Alolan Slurpuff would be based on Malasadas. If only I knew what a malasada even was
Nice 😀
Any ideas on type and stats?
Fairy/Psychic
It ate too many malasadas and became psychic
fuck it
You confused malasadas with pancakes
no i didnt
Yes you did. From eating Pancakes you gain Psychic types, because the first letter of Pancakes is P,. From eating malasadas you gain Steel type because the last letter of Malasadas is S. That’s Science.
no
thatsdumb
#EarthenAndStarAreOnePerson
no like thats just TOO ridiculous
and it was a joke… I thought that was obvious
it wasn’t obvious because of the obscure things you say all the time?
Wait, you weren’t joking?
I was
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3g4IszIQr_c
No, the psychic properties come from the flour in Alola, hence why both malasadas and pancakes cause Psychic powers
Psychic flour pokemon confirmed for USUM
I got Simisage, so:
Mega Simisage
Type: Grass
Ability: Overgrow
Stats: 75/138/63/128/63/131
Spinda!
Mega Spinda
Pure Flying type
Its legs are replaced with a giant tornado
Mega Miltank
Normal/Fairy
Moxie
HP-95
Attack-80 > 120
Defense-105 > 110
Sp.Attack-40
Sp.Defense-70 > 110
Speed-100 > 115
New moves: Play Rough, Steamroller, Superpower
She should be Normal Fairy normally
Why? I just slapped on Fairy because I remembered a Scottish myth that normal Miltank isn’t based on
Healing and Pink
Wat
Healing isn’t necessarily Fairy type, it just happens some fairy types are healers
just because its pink doesnt automatically mean make it fairy
It’s a healer just because milk, and not healer for the magic stuff that other fairies have
that makes no sense?
I love this idea
In bad with Megas but let’s go
Mega Musharna
It becomes a more darker purple and the cloud that comes out of its nose grows larger and covers a big part of its body
Hp 136
Att 55
Def 100
Spa 137
Spd 130
Spe 29
