Pikachu Outbreak-Chu Event: Mewtwo in GO, Snapchat Filter & More!

by

To tie in with the Pikachu Outbreak-chu event in Yokohama, Mewtwo has officially been released via Legendary Raid in Pokémon GO as an exclusive to the Pokémon GO Stadium event in Yokohama, Japan!

Mewtwo in Pokemon GO

Shortly after Mewtwo’s first appearance in the stadium, Niantic released an official statement that it would be coming to players worldwide via a new mechanic called Exclusive Raid Battles. These work exactly like regular raid battles with the only difference being to participate in them you have to be invited to them. To receive an invitation trainers must have successfully defeated a raid boss recently at the Gym where the Exclusive Raid Battle will be taking place – meaning that it’s completely by chance and there’s no way (that we know of yet) to predict which Gyms will spawn an Exclusive Raid Battle later. The invitations will include advance warning of when the Exclusive Raid will take place, giving trainers ample time to coordinate with other Trainers before taking on the powerful Raid Boss.

It was also confirmed in the statement that Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, and Lugia will be returning to Legendary Raid from today until August 31st!

Pikachu Snapchat Filter

Along with Mewtwo, a special Pikachu snapchat filter will be available for the next 3 days! The filter gives you a pair of signature Pikachu ears, nose and red cheeks (and luckily enough also air brushed my skin and shaved off a good 10 pounds from my face) – if you open your mouth it activates Pikachu to charge in from the left side of the screen to give you an electric kiss, allowing your face to give off bolts of electricty before Pikachu returns to the bottom left of the screen. There is no additional use of the filter on the back facing camera.

Check it out below:

Ditto & Mimikyu Distribution

Last but not least, in addition to the announced distribution of Pikachu at the Pikachu Outbreak-chu Carnival Parade in Yokohama, two other Pokémon are having a special distribution: Mimikyu and Ditto! Mimikyu is Level 10 with the moves Astonish, Copycat, Baby-Doll Eyes, and Splash, while the Ditto is holding a Light Ball.

  4. I’m surprised Pokémon hasn’t done snapchat filters before (as long as I remember), that’d be an amazing way to promote games XD

  7. I think we are going to get news about USUM during the VGC world championship, which is this weekend. I am also hoping that they will expand the Pokken Tournament roster a little bit more. I hope they reveal 2 new fighters for Pokken. I am guessing there will be a trailer for USUM over the weekend or on Friday at the earliest. I just want to see if the tapus get therian forms.

    Reply

  11. Well I have no interest in GO, Mewtwo being in it doesn’t change that, a shame it won’t be as epic looking catching it as the trailer made it seem, but we knew that. I do now have a slight urge to watch the first movie though.
    I don’t use Snapchat but that filter looks pretty snazzy.

  13. Lol I love this Pikahcu filter. Why is it not default though. I sent it to all my streaks with my Pikachu toy and the Pikachu in the filter. Three pikachus

  15. Important: I’m going in a “vacation” until Thursday sooooo I’m going to be posting a lot less frequently from now until than. Sorry about that my dudes. Hope all goes well for y’all while I’m somewhat gone.

  18. Thanks very only done one raid and it was for Articuno. I haven’t tried for the other ones due to not having time. I’m gonna try for Mewtwo tho that’s for sure

    Reply

  20. It’s cool that Mewtwo is now available, but like, we’ve been waiting for so long after Niantic hyped it up in that teaser trailer almost 2 years ago. Glad it’s here now, but still.

  21. My prediction for gen 8 (pokemon switch)
    Fancy graphics, like a mix of sun moon and oddysey
    a lot of marketing
    The new megas/zmoves like a third type form that makes the pokemon bigger, but doesn’t change appearance
    New UBs
    Aether
    Gyms and Totems (called something diffrent, like “Guardian Pokemon” and you have to beat them to battle the gym leader)
    Region based on the UK with big events happening in rl london
    Not openworld, but more locations than usually, bigger, more detailed region

    • I love it, I grew up more with disney’s comics than duck tales, but this is an amazing homage to both rn I love the ending especially

      Reply

  23. They should do Gen 4 remakes as the very first Pokemon Switch title. Sinnoh has the most potential for an open world setting, because its already the least linear region of the franchise.

    Reply

    • No. That would be dumb. Pokemon Switch is a chace o show off what pokemon is NOW. That takes away half the creativity they can use for a switch title. Just wait a little longer.

      Reply

    • It isn’t a bad idea but I find odd that GF would release a remake as their first title on a console, but GF has been breaking patterns lately so who knows

      Reply

      • Or it could be very smart, because it’ll allow them to introduce new mechanics in a familiar setting for the players.

        Reply

    • Sinnoh is the least linear region? How so? There is things to do once you obtain stuff like Surf and Strength, but almost every RPG should contain areas off the typical path! Also, I do have to agree with Butter Geek for once, that’s a fairly lackluster presentation of what they could do on the Switch. I rather have them make something entirely new to represent Pokemon on new hardware.

      I would love a D/P remake at some point, but I utterly detest it being the first title.

  26. So since there’s no hope in heaven for people staying on track for long in a Pokémon GO article (R. I. P Pokemon GO) I’ll just make more convo

    Any of you doing anything for your USUM playthrough, or any of your past playthroughs? Like a story, a comic, an art piece, etc?

    Reply

        • It’s the same story line for the most part. I’m leaving out a lot of stuff (Battle Royal, Zygarde, Trainer School etc) but especially at the beginning it’s pretty close.

          I want to make sure I properly explore the Aether Foundation and Team Skull so Lillie, Guzma and Gladion get more back story

          I’m still kinda figuring things out and planning but hopefully I’ll be able to improve the already pretty good story :0

          Reply

    • I’m gonna do a story based on my USUM playthrough (which I’ve already prepared a Pokémon and an egg for)

      Basically my MC moves back to Alola from his mother’s home region to partake in the island challenge (in this world, you become a trainer at the age of ~16 although it varies depending on the region), and meets back up with his estranged sister and the rest of his paternal family.

      Reply

  28. As I’m plotting out the story I’m worried about no being able to fully develop every character properly. Akala Island alone has

    Mallow
    Gladion
    Kiawe
    Lana
    Faba and
    Olivia

    Plus Lillie, Hau and Selene…

  29. Does it sound too Mary Sue if a main character has a shiny? Like besides that the Pokémon has nothing else ‘special’ (it has egg moves but in my comic TMs and Egg Moves can be learned naturally) so is that fine?

  41. Well I feel bad

    I’m still camping and my neighbor is this really pretty girl and because I have the issue of when seeing a pretty girl I tend to stare alot and I feel I’ve made her really uncomfortable next chance I get I’m going walk over and apologize

    I hate upsetting people

  44. Here are the sister admins of team Spring and Autumn

    Team Spring Admin Baba
    Uses Bug types (just like the leader). Speaks in rhyme, moves in a creepy way. Acts like she likes you, but It’s obviously fake. Her Signature is Slavian Mothim (Bug/Electric)

    Team Autumn Admin Jaga
    Uses ghost types (just like the leader). Speaks in rhyme,
    moves in a creepy way. She threatens and curses you with weird spells. Her Signature is a Slavian Roserade (Grass/Ghost)

  46. A little fakemon

    Boares (Boar + Ares)
    Fighting/Normal
    The Boar Pig Pokemon
    They are very popular on farms. If they live in a group they split into two teams and fight. They try to not hurt each other. They will fight for their trainers until they’re too weak to attack.

    Reply

    • I dunno, I feel the fact that they managed to change it so fast into something far more unique is pretty impressive? Like, yeah the actual trial portions themselves were absolute shit, but the concept of it themselves really added to Alola as a unique region and tbh Totem Sishiwashu

      Reply

      • *Wishiwashi and Lurantis gave me more trouble then most modern Gym Leaders have. And even though the trials were shit, modern gym puzzles are just as shit imo because they they’re not very thought through and are just timewasters rather than meaningful puzzles

        And tbh the fact those were meant to be gyms just make me feel that they’re even more likely to be Gyms in USUM

        Reply

        • Oh the Totem Pokemon were great, I loved the strategy involved and I wish we had more double battles in-game in general. GF can get creative with double strategies. I’m moreso laughing at the fact that so many, myself included, were speculating on those plots of land, and it turns out it was just a scrapped idea at the very last second and wasn’t alluding to anything.

          Reply

        • I respect that you are looking at in in that way but it is still terrible that it got to a point where they couldn’t get people to work on the trials. The totems were good, but the trials were shit. And that was the issue

          Reply

          • Gym leaders and gyms in recent years have both been shit

            The closest thing we’ve got to ‘hard’ puzzles since like BW (the soft refresh) were like, Burgh, Valerie and Olympia’s gyms, maybe Wulfric’s. And that’s mostly because three of them you don’t know where the entrance will take you. At least the trials tried to do something, or in the case of Normal, Water, and Dragon just straight up admitted ‘here we’re just waiting for you to go to the totem so here’s some filler’

            Gym Leaders nowadays tend to be easy as well imo

            I’m actually really happy with what they did? They took a risk. A kind of stupid one? Yes. But they took that risk and created a well received game that at least somewhat tried to be different. You’re forgetting GameFreak has always been this way – for example, Mew was injected last minute by one(!) guy and has become uber popular

          • I think my issue is less what they did and more how and why. They clearly didn’t give them the time and effort they deserved. I loved trial captains and totems. They made Alola feel like it had a culture unlike Kalos or Hoenn. But its clear that the problems in development left them not using the potential it had.

          • Kalos and Hoenn? What about Sinnoh and Unova which had gyms too lol. What’s the difference between these 4 regions culture wise?

          • I think Sinnoh and Unova tend to get excused because they’re decently good story games? That’s at least my guess

            Unova didn’t feel very NY state outside of Castelia and Nimbasa imo

          • Kanto I give a pass even if i shouldn’t
            Johto had a fantastic rural atmosphere especially in the remakes. Stuff like the miltank ranch and the old japanese towers go a long way
            Sinnoh was drenched in lore in every bit of the world.
            Unova was very urban most of the way through.

            Alola having trials takes it a step further.

          • Hoenn was 50% water, no other region has come close, unique culture no? Annoying culture to say the least lol.

          • what people fail to understand is that the amount of water in the game was because of the theme of Hoenn, the earth, the sea, the sky. i dont like the 7.8/10 too much water argument

          • They never do anything with that ocean though. There is no culture built around the sea really. There’s like one port town and pacifidlog town and that’s it

          • Slateport, Lillycove, Pacifidlog, Slateport, and Mossdeep is an island

            I don’t like Hoenn but it did try to use its water and I’d say that in ORAS it succeeded

          • pacifidlog is one of the best areas in hoenn imo. also to get to mossdeep is big use of water, having the dive mechanic in this region was huge. team aqua was in the water, finding kyogre in emerald was all water. the regis were all water. i dont see how they didnt use it enough.

          • Hoenn no, ORAS go for it. Hoenn wasnt bad at all. the water argument just really annoys me,thats on me not you, dont think im attacking your opinion lol just want to make suer anything i say isnt take with like malice

    • It’s a great game. And there still are chances they’ll use the plots as gyms in usum. Maybe he’ll use the original ideas he had for the Alola league. maybe USUM is the versions with his og gyms gyms.

      Reply

      • You continue to miss the point. The games are heavily flawed with problems stemming from a clear lack of planning or organization at gamefreak.

        GAMES CAN BE FLAWED AND STILL BE OK

        If you truly love something you need to understand and accept all of its flaws and problems. I fucking love Sun and Moon but you see me being critical of it and the state of pokemon and game freak all the time.

        Reply

        • I know that GF has flaws, so do all their games. The first sentence was more about how the tweeter called the games “pathethic” Which usually doesn’t mean good.
          But things like these make me like GF more. I can see that they are, in fact humans. They make Big mistakes. But What’s amazing is that the outcome is usually amazing.

          Reply

          • It worked this time but I will bet you that these same problems occurred in X and Y’s development and look how that turned out. Trials were bad. let’s admit that. The idea what amazing. The execution was bad and it’s clear GF is to blame. They shouldn’t be praised for making something bad because “at least they made something”

            They deserve criticism so they won’t make this mistake again. Sun and Moon did many things right, but the things it did wrong it REALLY did wrong. The trials, festival plaza, and post game were pathetic.

          • Post game has been bad for half the games, even the ones they probably didn’t have to rush, and gym puzzles have pretty much been on trial level since BW

            It’s not a SuMo issue, it’s a whole franchise issue

          • Then i would say Sun and Moon is X and Y but actually playable and dressed in a nice world, story, and pokedex. They both are representative of the issues in the series

          • Every game is representative of this series’ issues

            I’d say the only game that isn’t is Black and White because

            They weren’t major transitions

            They had a decent level curve

            They weren’t rushed for an anniversary or anything

            And even then they’re still flawed games

          • so when are they going to gather up all the issues and flaws like we are doing rn and make a better game?

          • Thats the thing though right? B2W2, fantastic games, sold terribly compared to the rest of the series. Then X and Y were the best selling games on the 3DS (before Sun and Moon) and those were pretty bad

          • wait really? i had no idea bw2 sold badly. youd think the first ever sequels (if you dont count johto, which i do not) wouldve sold well.

          • It is exactly a third version thing. Third versions arent really “appealed” for young kids. Only hard core fans (us) will buy it. I mean lets be honest when we were kids did you buy the original two AND third version? I sure never did.

          • its funny cuz the way i did pokemon games was I would get oneof the two and my brother would get the other. it was more like i get the first title while he gets the second title but i change a lot based on things such as version exclusives. i never really saw a need to buy both versions

          • And where do the sales say ‘most kids don’t’? Millions of people still buy them and there’s no statistics out there saying who drops them? It could be the people online bitching about how their favorite game franchise is flawed after their nostalgia glasses fell off

          • Oh so the millions of people are just so happen to drop their nostalgia glasses for reboots and then pick them back up for the next generation? I shouldnt say most as I dont know, but kids do make up a large portion of their consumers

          • It’s almost like.. Get this.. That last part was sarcasm considering the situation we’re in!? Could you believe it!?

            We don’t know who’s been dropping it, so yeah, unless we get a survey it’s dumb to outright say ‘it’s less kids’ or ‘less adults’.

          • Lol how about less people? Studies sshow less people are buying remakes. Does it make a difference? Remakes sale for less

          • Then that’s how you should’ve phrased it because that’s an objective fact? Rather than saying it was mostly kids dropping it when we don’t know how much each demographic dropped it? :/ sorry

          • November 17th 2017

            The best thing about third versions is that they’re less dirtied from what makes other games shit. No rush, no huge transition. Just dev time using skills they got from the original versions of the game

          • If they could rush SuMo and make the 3DS’ second best selling game another year with that as the basis is gonna be better at least from an objective, mechanical standpoint

          • We get it. I can’t believe we’ve been discussing the same stuff for about three or four days. It’s kinda getting repetative. I absolutely love discussions like this, but it’s honestly kinda getting annoying. Both Butter Geek and you have been sharing the same opinion for days with no alterations. We all admit that Pokemon games are good, but all games have their flaws. We all want the Switch Pokemon game to succeed. I believe that this turbulent discussion is fueled by the lack of US/UM, which is flourishing the “hate” towards GameFreak.

        • Pokémon as a whole has always been heavily flawed. Red and Blue are glitched to fuck, every Johto game has a shit flavoured levelling curve, Hoenn was the start of them removing important features, Sinnoh was a mechanical monstrosity with far too much mountain, Unova suffers from little selection and shortness (BW) or bad pacing (BW2), XY…exists, and now SuMo are revealed to be rushed and people are treating it like it’s a special case or something

          Reply

          • That’s what I meant by mechanical monstrosity

            Pretty sure that’s where half of my childhood went

          • I actually have to agree, I found them… Good. But that’s the issue for me imo, they were just… Good.

            I felt Mega Evolution could’ve been used much better

          • i agree they were good. i mean its more personal for me but putting that to the side, i started competitive in bw-bw2 and sun moon made it easier and allowed more people to get into competitive, cant really argue with this tbh

          • also i was annoyed with mega evolution at first but ive grown to like it especially since Z-Moves beat mega evolution out for stupidest thing in pokemon. It has made me appreciate some pokemon that i never really cared for i.e medicham, lopunny, kangaskhan

          • Z-Moves at least apply to a larger pool of Pokémon and were applied through their game tho, I wish Megas existed more in XY because including yourself before you beat the champion only four people use one

          • I don’t think it’s as much as its being treated as a special case as much as they are the newest games so that’s where the criticism is going to be directed. The other games have been heavily criticized for all that and rightly so

          • At least they’re honest and have admitted all the flaws they’ve done so people can bitch about it online like it’s actually anything new

          • But how come we have to literally hope and pray good features return? Dont you think if its a good feature they would keep it? Why are there remakes of regions just one year later with pretty much the same story? Why not just make the original one just awesome? Why are move tutors remake/sequel exclusive? Shouldnt they just be in every game? I mean I know we love pokemon but if we sit down and really analyze they arent doing anything very innovative

          • – Because they’re constantly swapping features in and out (because it’s never been straight removal, we tend to get replacements or at least new things in another direction) which exists to add value to going back to play old games which makes you more likely to buy them because you know you aren’t just going to forget about them in the future

            – Easier to make and easier to profit from, and also because most of the games are rushed for anniversaries (DP and SuMo) or are flawed due to GameFreak constantly changing hardware (RS and XY)

            – To add a reason to buy a rereleased game

            Tl:dr

            ¥¥¥

          • – If Zelda removed the Z-Targeting system from Majora’s Mask and all future 3D zelas and replaced it with some worse alternative, imagine how bad all those games would play.
            – 3rd versions sell the worse out of any other kind of pokemon games

          • – GameFreak has never removed a core function (stuff related to the core battling system), z-targetting is part of a 3D Zelda’s core mechanics. Bad comparison

            – So? They also cost less to develop so they still make a profit. That’s what a company does

          • They still sell millions and you’re pretty much just going to edit an existing game. And the thing is, they don’t have to choose between a third version and a new game. They’re usually deving multiples at a time and they still end up releasing the profit-giving third version and the well selling new game. They can have their cake and eat it

          • Can we stop excusing them for that though? You never see Nintendo plague their big games with these issues as consistantly as pokemon does. When you’ve been making games for 20 years you should be putting out content at a much higher level

          • Because Shovel Knight is way more mechanically simple than Pokémon? Doesn’t need to constantly change hardware outside of mostly straight ports? Isn’t constantly being rushed to meet deadlines?

            Pokémon is heavily flawed but so is this comparison

          • Well then the develpment side of Pokemon is seriously flawed. Pokemon games cant get bigger because they still have a small team. They are crunching to release it by a specific date.

            Notice how no Pokemon games have ever been delayed? i think that shows how much they care about quantity over quality. Its kind of crazy to think that Miyamoto said this http://www.azquotes.com/picture-quotes/quote-a-delayed-game-is-eventually-good-but-a-rushed-game-is-forever-bad-shigeru-miyamoto-20-21-20.jpg

            and yet Gamefreak isn’t listening to that

          • Because no Pokémon game has ever been ‘bad’ from an objective standpoint, even if they’re subjectively found bad by everyone

            And if they were to suddenly increase their numbers, you start getting all the other issues that come with that. It needs to be a gradual increase, and from what I’ve seen, that’s what they’ve been doing

            Also considering Nintendo owns all the trademarks and stuff, not GameFreak, they’re probably the ones coaching the release times

          • wait now people realize this? ive been trying to express that people cant use the “news drought” as an excuse for pokemon news when usum are literally only a year after sunmoon. all i have to say is they better be working on the switch game as we speak and if not they better delay it. they cannot screw up their first switch game

    • I’m curious where this information came from… Apologies if I missed something, I haven’t checked on any news for a couple days

      Reply

    • Lol they literally just left them as empty spots. Shaaame. They should have at least did both.
      Its like when smash decided at the last minute to make Lucina a character but instead of scrapping Marth they just left the space there for no reason

      Reply

    • Wow. I could have sworn that GameInformer covered this, but it’s still baffling. How were trials added at the last moments? It’s still baffles me how they managed to do this.

      Reply

  52. Did ya know… Sun and Moon was originally gonna have a Champion but they couldnt come up with a design so they were like “Yo man let make the player the first champion and he fight the professor WOAHHH SO COOL”

    Reply

  54. It’s so funny how so many of the what appears to be last minute changes and additions ended up being their greatest ideas. Changing things up with trials was a great idea. The player character defending the champion title is an awesome addition. People need to get over the fact that they were last minute additions and just accept the cool innovations that the stress of finishing the games brought us. I for one hope they learn from what they have here and bring the innovations the future games

      Reply

      • Oh no, I’m probably gonna love or at least have a decent time playing USUM, it’s mostly just that it ruins the atmosphere before the games come out which makes this place feel worse which sucks because I like most people here :/

        Reply

        • It shouldnt. Our opinions arent really causing harm. I mean honestly we feel so strongly about it because we love the series and we just want to see the best come out of it. I know I will love USUM. Heck, I still play SM lol so just dont let other people influence your experience.

          Reply

          • The thing is tho, there’s opinions and then expressing those opinions so repetitively it just comes across as negative even if it isn’t intentional. It’s like watching a somethingcritical jr forming

          • If you really dont like it feel free to take a leave until USUM come out :). Or just try to lead the conversation. Or just have it not affect you. I know it can be hard, but people just voice their opinions. Sure it can be repetitive. but it happens. You just love the game as much as you do and you will be fine.

          • The whole point I made is that I like coming here but I don’t like the negativity. It’s a minor thing anyway, but if I wanted to leave, there’s nothing stopping me.

            I’m pretty much just trying to low-key tell people they’re getting annoying because they can stick to that topic for days but can’t stick to the article topic for more than a few hours ¯_(ツ)_/ ¯

  58. I wish they introduced more battling styles in-game. Like Everything is singles except like once every other route with a double battle. One reason I loved Emerald is the fact you can see they purposely tried to implement a double battle (or more) every route. They kinda did it with Platinum too. I want more of that. I know since Triples (my favorite battle style) and rotation is gone they cant do much, but I still miss it. Maybe a trial/gym dedicated to inverse battle

    Reply

    • “Having trainers on screen with these detailed backgrounds slows down battles way too much in triple and rotation battles! Should we simplify the backgrounds and not show trainer models in these type of battles only?”

  78. Today was my first full day of college! Weird feeling to be sure. Now I can look back and feel old by realizing that I began coming to PokeJungle in my freshman year of high school (or maybe earlier). Mentioning high school in the past tense is still amazing. Maybe I’m just too sentimental. Anyway, thanks for being there for me and yada yada yada. I hope to come out of this as a more directed (and less stressed) individual.

    • Enjoy you’re first year in college! It’s a pretty great year. Just remember not to get into any trouble and that college requires you to be a little self reliant. If you do the work and show up to class then you’ll do fine. Also don’t forget to have fun! Sometimes it can be a stressful in college, but the freedom you get from being in classes that YOU got to choose for a major YOU wanted to learn about can feel really good.

    • I feel you – I started coming to PJN back when I was in 5th grade when the pre release for DP was in full swing (early 2006), started working for PJN the summer going into my 10th grade year (2010); now here I am about to start my Sophomore year of college. Times flies faster than a Latios. lmao

      Don’t skip a single class (’cause when you skip even one you begin to get in the habit of doing so), do EVERY bit of extra credit that professors make available (trust me, it can really save your butt later/let you relax in one class if you really need to focus in another), and allow yourself to have some fun (but not let that get in the way of your studies)! Uni will seem pretty easy at first, but be prepared for midterms and finals – that’s when the stress hits harder than a Bewear’s Arm Hammer. Best of luck with your first year, you can do it!

  79. I want (most of) this to be true

    -Johto starters wont be getting Alolan forms, GF doesn’t find it useful to add them

    -Alolan Stantler. Goes from pure Normal to Grass/Fairy. Color scheme changes from a brown body, to a green one with brown antlers. The orbs in the center of each antler are now flowers and the antlers are covered in vines. Its stern expression disappears entirely, and is replaced by a blissful one. Its primary ability Intidimate is replaced by Flower Veil

    -Alolan Qwilfish. Water/Steel, its entire body is now an iron ball and its based off a water mine. Its tail disappears completely and is replaced by a chain, gains the move self-destruct and its primary ability is now Battle Armor. Also appears in the USUM overworld

    -Alolan Dunsparce. Goes from pure Normal to Dragon/Flying. Samson Oak explains (in-game) that this change is due to Dunsparce experiencing the intense battles in Alola which made it migrate to Poni Canyon to train itself to get stronger. Eventually, they awaken their true power lying inside of them for so long. Its color scheme changes from yellow to indigo and the blue stripes become lighter. Its wings have grown significantly and are actually bigger than the body, needle tail is now a stubby dragon tail. They can be seen flying over Poni Canyon using the Rotom Dex camera function. Lastly, Serene Grace is replaced by Frisk.

  80. You know what I just realised? The seven trial captains are probably what were meant to be the Gym Leaders, and then either Kahili or more likely, Ryuki were probably meant to be the eight

    Think about it

    – There’s only one empty lot on Melemele. Could’ve been Illima, because Normal is a basic enough type to go first. You also battle Illima and his difficulty is around about the same or higher than our recent first Gym Leaders

    – There’s three in Akala – one in Konikoni (where Olivia, Mallow, and Lana live and just before the grand trial/after the last trial, one in the Royal Avenue (where you meet Kiawe the first time, and close to his trial site) and Heahea (the first city you arrive in and probably would’ve replaced Totem Wishiwashi)

    – There’s three empty lots on Ula’ula. One’s in Maile, where you battle Nanu (although if they were planning on Kahunas and Gyms, you could’ve fought the Gym when you entered the island and Nanu when you leave the island as you do in SuMo). One’s in front of the Hokulani Observatory, Soph’s trial site, and another is on a route close to the destroyed Tapu Village as well as the Aether House – where Acerola lives.

    – Finally, there’s one in Seafolk Village, and Mina is one of the Seafolk (and possibly the only other permanent residents of Poni seeing as she couldn’t exactly be the Trial Captain if she’s constantly heading off to sea). She doesn’t have a trial at all, so maybe she was the empty lot in Maile before being moved to Poni and retconned as one of the Seafolk/she was already one of the Seafolk so they moved her to her hometown?

    – And lastly, Ryuki. He’s a Dragon specialist who comes out of nowhere as one of your title defense opponents. Maybe he was dropped as a trial captain because they thought he looked too weird to be one? It can’t be a coincidence that there’s eight trial types (the six trial captains with trials, then Mina the Fairy trial captain and then the unmanned Dragon trial) and then we have another random Dragon user, right?

    Reply

    • Not only that but in a recent interview GF said that the trials were a last minute decision and that they struggled to find designers to design the trials (that’s why some of them are weird like Sophocles’ and Kiawe’s).

      So my guess is that they were supposed to be gym leaders and have gyms but at the last minute they decided to have trials instead so it can feel more like Hawaii and be more unique and they made the gym leaders trial captains (most of them) :0

    • I actually thought about the exact same thing when I first saw the Gameinformer video. However, I was either too lazy or busy to post it myself at the time. Regardless, thanks for taking the time to post your thoughts and you are not alone in thinking that this is a possibility. Now what I’m wondering is if they will bring back Gyms, keep the trials and replace the empty lots with other stuff, or do a combination of both in USUM.

  84. I hope they reveal some news when the total solar eclipse hits August 21st, would be a great opportunity to reveal the Necrozma forms. Maybe it was their plan all along.

    Reply

  86. So I had a thought about the cover legendaries. I’m unsure as to what ability they would get as both Prism Armor and the respective abilities of the cover legendaries have their own merits. My thought is that both of the USUM cover legendaries ability is Prism Armor and they will both have a special z-crystal. This z-crystal will be a powered up form of their signature move but also will give the USUM Cover legendary the ability of the SM cover legendary. Thus, when it is holding the Z-crystal, it will have access to a z-move, get a buff from an item in the form of an SM legendary ability, and Necrozma’s original ability. Does this sound too far-fetched or do any of you think it is feasible? Please rate this idea on a scale of Wishiwashi (base form) to Mega Rayquaza.

    Reply

      • No. It would have one ability. The z-crystal will just have two effects. One for the z-move and another effect that will replicate the old ability of the respective SM legendary.

          • It’s different from any other anime I’ve watched. I usually watch stuff like death note code geass, psychopass. It’s slice of life + mystery Elements. Artsyle is pretty and all the characters are good so I’d say watch it.

          • Hmm interesting. You know what’s a really good slice of life show? Orange. It really tugs at your heart strings. I recommend fully once you have the time. It so good!! lol Anyway you’ve got some good taste anime wise. Those shows are to notch. I’m actually re watching Bleach myself now. It was my first love and despite how it ended I still love it hahaha

          • I watched a bit of bleach but then gave up because it’s way to long for me. I’ll give orange a try but I’m usually into stuff with a serious plot, but i liked hyouka so maybe I’ll like orange

          • Orange is sort of a serious plot. It has lighthearted moments, but in the end the characters goals have some serious consequences if they don’t get what needs to be done done. It’s real good stuff lol

          • Ocean, I was being bullied by powerful rapid waves
            The undertow suplexed me into the ground like a rag doll

          • Swimming in an ocean is something I’ve always wanted to do. I’m​ pretty good swimming in a pool but i imagine an ocean would be way different

          • It’s saltier, the waves will be either be huge or nonexistent and you’ll feel dried out and grainy after a while (I’m still picking sand out of my ear)

  102. I don’t think I’ve posted my regional Bug yet… It has the same typing as Vikavolt, but hey we have a lot of Bug/Flying regional bugs!

    Pierbug (Pierogi + Bug)
    Normal/Bug
    The Food Bug pokemon
    They always steal one Pierogi dumpling and feed on it for a year. They won’t eat anything but them.

    Evolves at level 20 into

    Roginse (Pierogi + Instect)
    Normal/Bug
    The Calorie Bug pokemon
    As it needs more calories, it holds 3 special pierogi in his mouth. They need to find new ones every 3 years. There are organizations that give the pierogi to Roginse in need.

    Evolves after you give it PokePierogi (an item) 7 times into

    Thundrogi (Thunder + Pierogi)
    Electric/Bug
    The Calorie Energy Pokemon
    They hold seven Poke Pierogi in their mouths. Thundrogi use the calories from them to create lightinigs that they use in battling predators. They are partners of many chefs.

    Signature Ability:
    Extra Calories
    Giving them PokePierogi restores their HP. If their Hp is full, it Works once like the move Charge.

      A bigger version of Pierbug with diffrent proportions and black cirkle marks on its sides. It holds 3 pierogi in its beak. Its eye has a determined expression on its eye.

      A bigger version of Roginse (Around 5 feet tall), with lighting shaped anteni and legs. The cirkle Marks are now “Windows” that show the level of his orange bodily fluid. The level of the fluid depends on Thundrogi’s HP.

  104. Spinder
    Spin + spider (But if we’re getting bulbagarden levels of overanalysis you can throw in the German words ‘Spinne’ and ‘kinder’)
    Bug
    The Weaver Pokémon
    Keen Eye

    A small spider Pokémon. Looks like a more realistic spider than Spinarak and Joltik, but it’s still kinda cute. Its has two big beady black eyes, and three more smaller eyes above each eye which kinda gives it the look of having dotted eyebrows. It’s abdomen is round and has a red mark resembling a spindle on top, in contrast to the rest of its body which is varying shades of brown. Its spinnerets more resemble the hand spindle than a traditional spider spinneret.

    ‘Its method of spinning thread is slower than other Pokémon, but results in far stronger webs. Spinder’s specialised spinneret is believed to of inspired the spindle.’

          • true but it’s a matter of using what i like
            and not for nothing this team used to only fight Anything goes and was successful time to time

            BBUUUUUTTT i do have two focus sashes and 3 choice scarves backing them up but ehh these guys need all the help they need

          • but i’ve been winning a ton of matches, i’m just stating that i literally cannot beat Bug Monos if they have Mega Pinsir

          • We got a hamster and a chicken for Electric/Fairy

            Electric/Fighting can be literally anything GF wants it to be

          • well the hamster was a victim of the fairy craze
            and the whole fairy part is probably because of the land spirit vibe

            and it should at least try to make sense, i mean seriously Electrical muscle stimulation( or EMS) is a very real thing that works

          • Hamster is probably just a reference to how terms like ‘fairy’, ‘pixie’, ‘sprite’ etc can be attributed to cute small things, like how Swirlix exists because fairy floss. It’s the type that have the most design freedom for probably

            We got an spiky plant ball and origami for Grass/Steel, a Knight and a meditating warrior for Psychic/Fighting, and a Hydra and a fatass for Dark/Dragon. We even got some weird mammalian hybrids for Poison/Ground. Pokémon can play fast and loose with types, they don’t have to be realistic

          • As for the spiky ball plant it’s a Durian and spikes and thorns go hand and hand and Kartana’s composition might be a plant like material with sword like qualities i mean we know nothing abut Ultra Beast Anatomy
            are you talking about Chesnaught? because it just has defensive
            and how is a meditation warrior so bad for psychic/fighting

            and Hydregion is nothing but violent and destructive same for Guzzlord it fits them fairly well

          • Durians aren’t actually metal
            Ultra Beasts are still Pokémon and Kartana’s body is made clear to be paper or paper like
            Chesnaught isn’t Psychic I’m on about Gallade
            Meditation doesn’t give you psychic powers irl (at least what’s been proven so far)
            Dragons don’t exist irl and being violent doesn’t automatically make you evil (Dark) irl

          • But this is literally a spike ball it can easily be steel
            But it’s an Ultra beast they are different,
            and dude Gallade was always a psychic type to begin with i mean it evolved from a Kirlia which always had emotion attuned psychic prowess the dawn stone awakened the combative defender male genes
            it doesn’t give you psychic powers but everyone knows that wise control of your mental state is critical for most martial arts

            Hydreigon is based on the Yamata no Orochi, including its red eyes. Its three heads It may also incorporate elements of the Lernaean Hydra. These mythological serpents may have inspired Hydreigon’s Dark typing, as all three are deadly antagonists, with the Zmey Gorynych in particular shown to be deceptive.

            so stop trying to act that none of these pokemon have some type of concept backing up their type

          • I’m not saying they have no concept, I’m saying the concept doesn’t have to be uberlogical™ and grouped in real life

          • says you, all pokemon have reasoning and inspiration behind their designs
            even the more forgotten ones, but saying they don’t or they are loose with it is a major understatement

          • Psychic egg seeds
            Psychic egg coconut tree
            Two headed giraffe
            Ice cream cone come to life
            A perfume bottle bird
            A garbage bag

            Dragon bird
            Dragon slug
            A banshee, a type of fairy, not being Fairy-type

            Etc etc

          • they both have telepathy to communicate with each other
            It’s just living ice and snow, not a frozen dairy product
            its based off plague doctors and it itself isn’t perfume it just releases odors as a defense mechanism which is a proven thing
            pollution creating undesirable life
            always the electric rats and rodents
            there’s still lore for supernatural entities and you know that
            hellhounds?
            we just did this
            Audino just uses its ultra powerful hearing to determine the well being of pokemon’s body
            we’ve done the whole Flygon thing to death
            there’s actually a mythology to Goodra, it’s based on the Shussebora which is literally the trumpet shell snail that if it lives in the mountians, plains and sea for 1000 years each it will become a dragon
            not saying its wrong just that Misdreavus and Mismag didn’t get the treatment

          • But you can’t tell me that wasn’t GF looking at a type and literally shitting out something random to fit it

          • well it’s steam how can it not work out?
            there exists the newspaper notes on the XY legends and it states something about Volcaion’s unique organ in its body

          • well it has that water boiler in its chest and two hoses, intakes water, heats it up and blasts it out strong enough to break apart a mountain

          • If you were to tell me the type I’d literally guess anything but Fire/Water because steam isn’t conveyed in the design well

          • ehh that’s your problem, i see it as a fire type regardless and that blue in its body draws attention

          • Exactly. You can tell they’re fire types but their colour scheme doesn’t imply their second types (or lack thereof)

          • Four isn’t nonexistent kid, and I’m just saying colour doesn’t always indicate type well. Never said there was a lot of blue Fire types!? Did I? I said others, which implies at least two more than the thing we’re discussing, and guess what! Four is more than two! Might be a bit of a revelation to you tho

  147. In various areas of the Incrum region, unexplainable events have begun to occur. Ranging from smaller occurrences such as square snowflakes to larger events such as the appearance of star fragments across the region. Studies of these events all show that they their origins are not of this dimension. Despite similar sharing similarities to the events that occurred in Alola, the circumstances are entire different. This lead to one conclusion: new Ultra Beasts have begun to surface.

The extent to which I actually care about school just keeps going down, which is a great thing. Two years ago, I poured my heart and soul into my work, and it was exhausting. Last year, I just told my self “let’s half-ass it and see how it goes,” and it worked out the same for me. So I guess, no matter how much I try, I’ve plateaued? So this year I’m going in with the attitude of utter and complete nonchalance and optimism. So in that spirit, the best part about going back to school is not worrying about wasting my summer, since that’s now water under the bridge.

    Sorry for the complete randomness, but it felt good to get it all out there, write it down somewhere (or I guess, type it out).

    As for someting barely related, I can’t wait for Gamescom! Nintendo seems to be more serious about participation this year than ever before.

    • Definitely agree with the school part. I know people who spent way too much time working their butts. Staying up long nights finishing homework, doing too many extracurriculars, etc.
      I used to work very hard studying and reading in my freshman/sophomore years. When I became a junior, I pretty much just stopped studying. By the end of senior year, I genuinely stopped caring about some classes (didn’t need the college credit) Still got the same grades (all As). Life is going to have so much stress later down the road — enjoy what you can now!

      • It sounds like I’m in the exact same boat as you were in. I tried super hard freshman year, and didn’t try very much sophomore year (except a 10 hour cram for a AP test, but that was my own fault) and got the same grades. So I’m gonna see how far I can push it and try even less! Not to say that I’m gonna let myself go, but I’m gonna loosen a reins a little and see where it takes me.

          • In terms of advanced/interesting things, AP US history, AP phsyics, a java class, and a game design class (that one I’m really hyped for). Other than that it’s pretty much just normal stuff.

          • @starstorm295:disqus, you’re in school now too right? And I think also taking an AP? What else?
            I like knowing just because I like seeing if I’ve done them. I want to be able to help 🙂

          • Wish I could help with the AP WH, but I took that over 4 years ago, so I don’t remember much. When you get to the contemporary stuff, I may be more of a help!
            What’s the A for in 2A? My school just had Algebra II. But if you need help w/it, you feel free to ask! I’m a math major 🙂

          • I took APWH, and as much as I want to give you advice, I really don’t have much. Read the practice book I guess? I studied that for like 10 hours in the three days before the test then got a 4. Units 3 and 4 always got me.

  153. Going back to school reminds me, we really need a new AC game! I played the heck out of new leaf on my often 45 minute ride home a couple years ago, and I wish I could do the same this year. Maybe Spring if we’re really lucky.

  157. Holy shit I should be sleeping probably but I just realized Nebby represents Lillie’s entire character arc. After leaving the AF that was cruel to it, Nebby is forced to stay in the bag just like how Lillie is forced to live in quiet as to avoid the AF finding her. As Nebby keeps trying to escape, it represents Lillie being inspired by the protagonist to be her true happy self. But Nebby is always returned to the bag and Lillie has to stay quiet and suspicious

    It is only after Lillie realizes she doesn’t belong to her mother when Nebby can evolve into Solgaleo or Lunala and Lillie can become her own person.

    I doubt GameFreak thought this through but if they did they have some great writers trying their best

  162. Do you guys think that since the Tapu have a hidden ability (Telepathy) we’ll see them distributed soon, maybe with something new? The Gen IV mascots (including Johto) got Hidden Abilities, probably because they were distributed through Dream Radar in Gen V, and it’s the same with the Forces of Nature (who got new forms in BW2). The Tapu and Forces of Nature are the only legends introduced after Hidden Abilities to get them.

  163. You know what I’m really confused about? Like, all the Alola Starter’s stats are fine imo for their basis, because design will usually win out over comp viability. But who the hell decided to make Incineroar the bulkiest? It does better defensively than the other starters besides Primarina in Special Defense, where it does around the same as Deci, but it’s no competition for physical bulk.

    My one complaint about Incineroar is that its stats don’t flow off of Torracat very well, because it goes from frail and strong to beefy and strong, which wouldn’t be a problem if that wasn’t every Alola Starter’s role. Like seriously, if you play Deci and then Inci, or the other way round, imo it’s boring because you’re going from one physical attacking tank to another, except Deci can actually be a mixed attacker, is a bit faster, and has reliable recovery, whereas Inci has the better defensive stats, access to a tank boosting move (Bulk Up) and a life draining move (Leech Life)

    Like seriously if they were going to make all three Alola starters tanks, they should’ve given them all reliable recovery. Slack Off for Incineroar, Wish for Primarina, and Deci keeps Roost. Or they should’ve just made Inci faster and dropped a bit if bulk because the starters should be more varied ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    • Oh, they’re kinda similar indeed, in both you fight a Pokemon that is stronger than normal and only occur in some cases. But in raid battles you have the help of more trainers while in Totems they have the help of more Pkms.

      But I don’t think they’re related, like, I’m not sure if Pkms in raid battles are bigger (it seems to me that they aren’t) and they don’t have any aura. And Pokemon SM and GO doesn’t many connections if none at all so I certainly don’t think they’re related.

      • I hope that in gen 8 we get to see a wormhole opening for the first time in a region and later at random places totem-like raid pokemon appear that you can catch. Maybe when you catch them they go back to their non totem state, but in battle you can “mega evolve” them into totems

  165. I heard a rumour about the switch game to be settled in China. Here’s why:

    – Pokemon Stars was a code name leaked. We all thought about the sequels of sun and moon, but actually their code name was Pokemon Rainbow cause they were settled in Hawaii. The Chinese flag has stars on it as a rappresentation of the chinese people.
    – Chinese has been added as a playable language to the games.
    – Ryuki is dressed as a chinese red dragon (has the chinese flag colours too) and says: “The name’s Ryuki. I’m what you might call a STAR. I mean, with partners like my Pokémon, how could I not be a STAR? I came all the way across the sea here to Alola to spread my fame out here, too! The whole world will be mine soon!”. If you want to reach the Hawaii from China you have to cross the sea. His extremely long ponytail is also reminiscent of Manchurian Chineses.

      A seal simmilar to Derpa, but bigger and standing on its tail. It has thick Dark Blue whiskers, and a a little bit less cute face. Its Fin-arms are sharp

      An even bigger, more muscular version of Baikeal. It has even thicker Dark Blue whiskers and “armor” of the same colour on its head, Fin-arms, tail and “shoulders”.

  175. How does this concept sound? Dumb or dumb asf?

    Hound 1, Hound 2, Hound 3
    Dark-types, based on different guardian hellhounds. First evo is based on Garmr of Norse mythology, second and third evos are based on Orthrus and Cerberus. They’re heavily associated with biting moves – Hound 2 learns the attack Dual Fangs, which attacks once as a Fairy-type move and once as a Psychic-type move, whereas Hound 3 learns Triplet Fangs, which hits as Electric, Ice, and Fire-typed in quick succession! Hound 2 has the ability Dualist, and Hound 3 has the ability Tripartite. They learn moves such as Bite, Crunch, Psychic Fangs, Unfair Fangs, and Thunder/Ice/Fire/Poison Fang.

    Dualist – Pun on duelist and dual. Halfs the power of attacks (rounding down if the value has a decimal) but allows them to strike twice. Doesn’t effect moves that already hit multiple times, or Z-Moves.

    Tripartite – Same as Dualist, but attacks are reduced in power by 33% (rounded down if necessary) and are used three times. The animation for the move only occurs once though. Doesn’t affect Z-Moves or multi hit moves

    Unfair Fangs – Fairy-type Psychic Fangs, removes Mist, Safeguard, and Lucky Chant.

    Doduo and Zweilious get Dualist as Hidden Abilities, and Dodrio and Hydreigon get Tripartite. For Doduo and Dodrio, Tangled Feet (their old HA) replaces Run Away and their new abilities are the HAs

  234. Do these names sound okay? They’re evolutions of Metem, the Eevee Clone in Amethyst & Citrine, as well as another evolution of a more familiar face

    Their names all begin with ‘Nan-‘, as in ‘Nanosecond’ to contrast with the Eeveelutions’ ‘-eon’, which refers to a long period of time due to their evolution theme. However, Metem and it’s evolutions were created quickly all at once. They’re also all puns and/or portmanteaus that connect at the ‘-an-‘ part.

    The Ground-type Nangaea (from Pangaea, the supercontinent), Steel-type Nanadium (from the metal element vanadium), Rock-type Nanzanite (from tanzanite, a gemstone), Ghost-type Nanubis (from Anubis, Egyptian God of the dead), Flying-type Nanemoi (from the anemoi, the Greek Gods of the wind), the Fighting-type Nanjutsu (from ninjutsu), the Bug-type Nantenna (from antenna), and the Normal-type Nanon (from ‘canon’, meaning a holy rule. Also from ‘non-‘ as in ‘non-elemental’ or ‘non-typed’)

        Reply

          • You know how Eevee is a bit more canine with traits of felines, rabbits, just general mammals? Well, Metem is more of a cat with dog like traits as well as some rodent traits. It’s mostly white, but has big baby blue eyes – it’s designed to be as cute as possible by Prisma. Biggest distinction between Eevee and Metem is that Metem has rounded, smaller ears and a straight, less busy tail

            However, similar to Eevee, which has some canine like evolutions, some feline like evolutions, and some blends, Metem had the same. For example, Nanubis draws traits from jackals, yet Nanemoi has a much sleeker cat like design.

    • An art gallery and a studio are probably going to be too close, especially when Illima hasn’t shown an interest in art at all. And Rest is a Psychic move.

      Komala’s stats are far too high for Melemele, and unless it’s changed in USUM it’s not in the Melemele Dex. Trainers in SuMo only use Pokémon in the Island Dexes of their island and the ones before it, with special exceptions like the plot relevant Type: Null (is only in the overall Alola Dex) and the Nugget Bridge trainers (who use Pokémon not even in the Dex).

      That’s far too easy for Gym 2, especially since at that point you would’ve bet Totem Wishiwashi if you really need a Z-Crystal to enter. Her Araquanid at least would probably be evolved, as it evolves super early, and they’d probably just use her team from her fight in SuMo but levelled down a bit tbh

      Kiawe’s and Mallow’s teams are the most boring ideas possible, especially when Alola has so much options available. Heck, their teams in SuMo are better and those aren’t meant to be hard battles.

      Sophocles’ is slightly better, but he’d probably have Vikavolt, or Charjabug would be his opening act.

      Why. Would. Gym. Six. Give. You. A. TM. For. A. 30. Power. Move.

      Acerola’s team looks slightly better and actually like a more realistic GL.

      Hau’s story arc is so obviously him going to be a Kahuna, not a Gym Leader. And if USUM by some miracle is a sequel, Hau will probably take over for Hala due to his E4 challenge. The team is the uber typical Alola Psychic team but eh it works

      If Hapu (who’s pretty much Gyms 7 and 8 in SuMo) is any indication, the last Gym Leaders would use more than three Pokémon. Mina’s team here looks pretty easy. Also, Comfey would be a terrible totem, Comfey is a support Pokémon.

      Wouldn’t it make more sense to get the Z-Crystals from Gym Leaders instead of just wasting your time with a trial of the exact same type?

  238. The ultra beast buff

    A noticeable difference between Ultra Beast sightings in Incrum when compared to Alola is that Alolan Ultra Beasts did not seem to express their abilities to the fullest. When brought to special areas in Incrum, Ultra Beasts first seen in both Alola gain a new form with a new ability to go along with them that is more representative of their character. Incrumian Ultra beasts have already adapted to this but their activity is still noted to be much higher in these areas.

    So certain UBs (Guzzlord) will become much better

        • The unicorn is a symbol of Scotland, not of the UK as a whole, and I doubt each starter would be based on one country in the UK because that’d leave out one of the four countries. If anything was to represent Scotland as starter, it’d probably be a creature that represented Ireland, too.

          Reply

          • It could be an unofficiall starter like Pikachu or Rockruff, Ireland isn’t fully in the UK, so its pokemon wouldn’t have to fully be a starter

          • Rockruff isn’t an unofficial starter. At all. It’s a rare mon in an optional area at the end of the first island.

            Ireland is an island, and it’s split into two parts. Northern Ireland, the whole of Northern Ireland, is a part of the UK.

          • An onofficial starter is a cute pokemon resembling a starter in design, and with a simmmilar role in marketing and in anime.

          • That’s just called a marketable Pokémon. There’s no term for it. No such thing as a ‘unofficial starter’.

            And what do you mean a starter like design? Outside of being three specific types, the Base form starters have a variety of varying designs

  273. TBH from what I’ve seen Insurgence does not meet the giga lofty expectations I’ve set for it. I mean it’s easily one of the better rom hacks out there but I feel there was a bit too much hype for it. I preferred Uranium as that met literally every expectation I had. I mean certain deltas (Goomy, Wailord, and Yanma) are basically perfect to me, too much stuff is locked in the aftergame. As cool as having a battle frontier is, it just doesn’t feel as magical as a typical Pokémon game yknow? I guess I expected a little more. I still haven’t finished but I do love the game regardless. So far for completed fangames Uranium is still my favorite. I do imagine Ethereal Gates, Sage, Azurite, and Phoenix Rising will all challenge Uranium for its place but for now, I am going to play the waiting game.

    Monarcontro
    Classification: The Activator Pokemon
    Height: 1.00
    Weight: 3.2 Lbs
    Type: Electric/Psychic
    Ability: Priming Waves
    Stats:
    HP: 75
    Attack: 55
    Defense: 55
    Special Attack: 75
    Special Defense: 55
    Speed: 115
    Base Stat Total: 430
    Pokedex Entry: This Pokemon is entirely man-made and its existence is considered extremely controversial. It was given a butterfly like appearance to hide its true colors and can use this apperance to get in close to targets and deceive them through various different methods. It is said that even the strongest and undistracted minds can be taken over by this Pokemon in just a few seconds. Despite its possession of this deadly power, it is weak in literally every other way.

    Priming Wave: Upon entering the field for the first time, the user is able to mark any Pokemon that has been sent out at some point by the foe. The marked Pokemon will be forced to attack another revealed enemy Pokemon (or any Pokemon if teams were shown before the battle) with a move of your choosing. This ability can be activated regardless of the user’s state.

    This is the “signature” fakemon of team vaccine. This boi gets spammed by the grunts and YES I get how overpowered it’s ability is.

  298. Is there a good way to SOS hunt Sandygast and Comfey? They both have healing moves and both have moves that do additional damage each turn (i.e. Sand tomb and wrap) They’re both kind of annoying to go after with my Smeargle that has Recover, Recycle, False Swipe, and Drill Peck

  305. Okay…. if Pokemon were real, and we were all Pokemon trainers… what would your 6 on your team be currently?

    Mine would be:

    Samurott (I’d be from Unova because it most closely resembles Los Angeles, even though it’s based on New York), Incineroar, Beartic, Ninetales (Alola Form), Umbreon, and Crabominable

  312. THEORY

    Solgaleo – based off the Lion Who Devours the sun in Alchemy

    Lunala – based off the Bat Who Devours the moon in Alchemy

    Now, I think that Necrozma is based off a Magnum Opus in Alchemy
    There are 4 steps to create the Philosopher’s Stone in alchemy:

    1: Nigredo – blackness, ”the dark night of the soul, when an individual confronts the shadow within”
    >Necrozma

    2: Albedo – whiteness, the washing away of impurities
    >Ultra Lunala

    3: Citrinitas – Yellowness, transmutation from silver into gold. Stood for the dawning of ”solar light” inherent in one’s being, and that the reflective ”lunar or soul light” was no longer necessary.
    >Ultra Solgaleo

    4: Rubedo – redness, signalled alchemical success, and the end of the great work.
    >??? (Note: both Solgaleo AND Lunala’s shiny sprites are a bright red

    In short: Necrozma is an empty husk (like Kyurem) since its been away from Ultra Space for so long, therefore cut off from its energy and looking like the way it does.

    I think, in USUM we may very well witness Necrozma attempting to absorb Solgaleo/Lunala in order to achieve its perfect (complete form) or in alchemy terms, Magnum Opus.

  314. Guess for Worlds:

    – First full length trailer for Ultra Sun and Moon
    – Doesn’t show anything too important, but shows a few minor changes and will elaborate whether it’s a third version, heavily changed third version, a what if, or a sequel.

    Pessimistic guess:

    – First appearance of Dusk Lycanroc in an English speaking trailer

    Optimistic:

    – Elaboration on the mascots

          • But fairy mons have a lot of potential for fakemon! Dude, I’m planning on making a fan game too (and like Im few steps in front of you, I have a whole Fakedex and RPGmaker) and I’ll have twice as much work, cause I’ll add fairy to existing mon. Don’t plan on being lazy, Fairy types are worth working for half an hour. Try to make fairy type fakemons, you’ll see.

          • It’s his choice if he doesn’t want to include Fairy-types or not. It’s not ‘lazy’ because he can redistribute his ideas elsewhere.

          • he said “I don’t have to work to make fairy type”… He won’t loose anything but a little bit of tme by adding fairy type and he’ll gain a lot of potential for fakemon. And “redistributing ideas elsewhere” is an excuse I would use for being lazy

          • ‘I don’t have to make fairy types so I can focus more on other things’ is probably what he meant

            And I’m sorry kid if you have too much free time on your hands but not all of us have the ‘bit of time’ to focus on Fakémon, and a good Fakémon doesn’t just take a ‘bit of time’

        • Aren’t sinle typed final starters bornig? Why not make it Flying If it’s bubble based? Bubbles float, and it could be Dumbo inspired

          Reply

          • “Aren’t sinle typed final starters bornig?”

            Serperior, Sceptile and Samurott are singled typed

            Your argument is invalid 😛

          • I’d rather have a single typed starter than a double typed starter with a far fetched secondary typing, and the typings won’t matter if the Pkms are interesting enough

          • It makes the pokemon more complex. One great thing about starters is that you can see your pokemon change, that’s bettter than staying the same for three stages. I love sammurott, but he’d be better with a secondary type (fighting)

          • Complex? Not really, the secondary type doesn’t change much the appearance of the starter, like Decidueye, Primarina and Emboar, you can remove their second types and their designs wouldn’t have to change at all.

            Also, we don’t need a secondary ntype to see our Pkms changing, they already show us this by changing their appearance, having better moveset and stats

          • I feel like if the design was fitting, it could easily be a rock type, most fountains are made out of rock

        • Ideas:
          Racoon
          Razoon -> Sharpoon Grass -> Scrapcoon Grass/Steel it holds blades shaped like leafs made out of metal. He has grey parts on its body that shine. it has a helmet made out of diffrent parts of metal crewed together. It made it from trash.

          Pyrit -> Earcoal Fire -> Rabburn Fire/Rock Its Ears and Tail are made out of coal. It has little horns that can produce antlers made out of fire.

          • Stop making ideas for other people’s Fakémon without them asking. It’s just off-putting because when you come to make your own evos you try and distance yourself from unwanted suggestions.

    • I know I’ve been counting down the days
      My only question is who’s gonna be the antagonist

      My bet is in edge cloak guy from the Auction

  320. 2 things! FIRST I just wanna say I never knew how useful Shedinja was for SOS hunting until today!!! Mine still needs to level up quite a bit before it can 1HKO everything, but it’s getting there. Shout out to @vishkartechsupport:disqus for the heads up on that one! Between Shedinja and Smeargle I’ll be unstoppable lol
    SECOND! Apparently during an AMA Reddit thread some reporters from Game Informer were asked if they learned anything new about USUM. They said they learned a thing about a single new feature and would be posting something about said feature tomorrow. So who wants to bet they were asked to hold off on releasing their article on the new feature until tomorrow because whatever it is will be revealed at Worlds tomorrow morning? hahaha

    Reply

  322. The more I think about it the more I think the new feature will be walking Pokemon. It’s been a long time coming and it’s the kind of thing they can drop without actually having to give any additional info on the games. That way they can show something “new” without actually showing something NEW

    Reply

  325. One thing I think having walking Pokemon will fix for me is how in SM the other characters talk about you and whatever Pokemon you have in your first party slot. It always annoyed me that they kept mentioning a Pokemon that they really shouldn’t have known was in my party and on top of that if they were gonna mention a Pokemon it should have been the starter. This way it’ll make WAY more sense for them to say “You and your (insert Pokemon here) are a great team!”

    Reply

      • I mean it’s not like that stopped them in HGSS. Whenever you were in a space with less to work with your Pokemon would go back in it’s ball. Like in Pokemon centers. That said if they expanded certain areas and added onto the region I wouldn’t complain lol

        Reply

    • I do hope walking with Pokemon is a feature in the next game with a toggle. Personally, I don’t care for it, but I do see why fans enjoy it as a novelty.

      • I liked it a bit in HGSS, but yeah I could take or leave it. It’s a fun thing to have, but it’s not something I’d kill someone for lol
