So much merchandise I want, but shouldn’t buy lol
Literally me every time I compile merchandise for our Weekly Wrap Ups lmao
Ditto, and not the pokemon.
It’s a real struggle lol
Wait I didn’t USUM news on here tho?
I think these articles are for smaller news like merch and updates to stuff already released.
Oh that makes more Sense now that I think
Yeah I love the merch. But too expensive and I’m not good with online purchases
Today is good and bad, i got my work done for scaling m characters, but no one seems to really notice or care on the sites i posted it on, tis life…

Just found this lovely lady strolling near the bay~
Is it shiny? I can’t tell
You bet she is~
Are you gonna evolve her? If yes then into what?
I always wanted a shiny slowking… but then again, shiny mega slowbro~
Wouldn’t that be a… Slowqueen?
Slow down there, Speedy…
I want to find a shiny Slowpoke and catch it in a Fast ball lol
i was in no hurry to find this sweetie~
Taking your time is the lesson here~
quick ball***
No, cuz she took a few SOS calls…
It really doesn’t matter. The point would be to get it in a ball that is a contradiction to Slowpoke lol
omg you say lol I’m like… every comment…
Like it’s fine but I’ve been noticing it
lol
https://youtu.be/pIjir3kro20?t=54s
Congrats
Thank you~
Your Welcome
I’d like the stufful and the Z Power Ring, but I wish it looked more realistic and less plastic-y
So I’m seeing some people saying that maybe each of the UBs have their own spaces and the one we went to in SM was specifically for Nihilego. Meanwhile that weird grass forest with the rice farmers we saw in the USUM trailer would be for Kartana. It’s an interesting idea
Yeah, sounds cool, but what were those rice farmers doing there?
Good question. Maybe in USUM the Ultra Spaces are more common place and people can come and go as they please?
“Yeah, It’s pretty weird over here, those space holes an’ stuff… but Rice here grows like a demon!”
Hahaha Come for the Ultra Beasts, say for the rice farming lol
After you beat the champion, the post game is just growing rice
We finally get post game in Alola and it’s just a rice farming simulator lol
Hey TheUltraMonster6893 plz give me a link to your Youtube Account!!! I’m very interested
It’s mostly a pack opening channel, but there’s some minor stuff other than that. My main bread and butter is the pack openings tho. That said I don’t have a huge following, but it’s still been pretty fun to do. It also gives my addiction to buying packs of Pokemon cards purpose lol
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyFKlkdRt6aAru6zDy6CXIw
Wow I did not expect that voice XD
I have a pretty deep voice I know.
It really sounds like Poketuber voice
Unlike my shrill awkward voice :/
Thanks. Your voice is fine. You’re just young. It’ll settle down after a while.
Who’s bread? I thought I was your only main!
I geez I’ve been caught!!!
I just realize that Slowpoke’s evos are sexist. Why SlowBRO and SlowKING, why not Slowsis and Slowqueen? (jk)
If you don’t think a lady can be a bro, then you never heard of a tomboy, or are sexist yourself~
I legit don’t know what a tomboy is
Swing by my house sometime, my little sister is one~
that could be a bit hard considering I live in Poland lol
When i say swing, what do you think i meant? Donkey kong that ocean~
It’s a girl that acts sorta masculine or has traits along those lines
Example: Short haircuts that are more like a boy’s hair cut
Thanks deer, not the best at explaining it…
I’m not either, I just remeber short haircuts can be considered
Imo it’s kinda annoying because it implies that girls that enjoy more “masculine” things are somehow different from other girls
OMG…..I really do need to stop adding “lol” to the end of my posts………I’v never noticed. I usually add it just as a modifier to show I’m being playful/friendly. That said it’s become a habit I never noticed.
you forgot to put “lol” at the end
Not gonna lie I caught my finger reaching for the L key
Lol: the perfect addiction from the same people who brought you fidget spinners and the emoji movie~ (i joke, of course~)
-My name is UltraMonster…
-Hi UltraMonster
-Hi UltraMonster
-Hi UltraMonster
-…and It’s been 1 day without using lol
*everybody claps*
Hi i’m Deerlia,
and I have a cuteness addiction.
Hi i’m Butter
And I have a BeingUnfunny problem
I am recovering from kitten pictures and silly doggie videos, i have been sober for almost 1 month…
I’m here because my friends are tired of my food puns… I’m really trying to stop… but it’s nut so easy…
That was cheesy
I can’t relish this moment, i am going to bread…
I’m just trying to move on with my life the best way I can XP
I’m glad i’m not the only one that noticed that trend lol
I just hate that abbreviation so much, when people stupidly dribble out that word, tacking it in at every opportunity
Just boils my blood
I’ll keep using it then just to annoy you
Lol!
LM**O is even worse imo
Was it really necessary to censor the F? It’s not like you actually wrote it out haha
what about LUL
I got used to it because I watch CSGO twitch streams
Yeah like… I wasn’t sure if it was intentional but I’ve noticed it for a while
Oh thanks for reminding me about Salazzal code
Next week I’m going on a huge splurge at Game stop
Salazzal code, Abra Plushie I’ve eyed in months, A Z crystal pack of Fairy, Ice and Flying crystals, Probably another Card pack and pre-ordering Yo-kai Watch: PS
Well I’m off to eat a sandwich. I’ll be back later I’m sure. PEACE!
Not sure how to comment relevantly on these weekly wrap ups.
I can’t be happy or excited since nothing Nintendo relevant comes to India…..
simmilar in Poland. There’s still online shopping, but that’s pretty expensive sometimes
Is there a Poland option for when the 3DS asks your location?
yep, but the language in the 3ds doesn’t change to Polish
THERE IS LITERALLY NO INDIA OPTION IN THE 3DS GODDAMNIT
Well if the next region is india, there probably will add it to the switch
Probably not, they literally get no sales from India.
Everytime I play online smash, i get so much lag because I play on a japanese server
Unsurprisingly I’m uber pissed today
I just feel like beating something up since my family is going down the crapper, and the lack of good gaming news is aggravating
Somebody give me a Fakemon idea
What about a maned wolf Fakemon? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9bf5dbebc445944abc5224d3e67dedbc998ac5dbb8da69f2d1809914e27cbc76.jpg
Those legs are longer than an average human life
Ehhh I have something along the lines
http://honesttopaws.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2016/02/caracal-2.jpg
It would make a great pokemon. What type would it be?
It is called Nocaracal it’s pure dark
its so cute tho
It is a very secretive and stealthy Pokemon with dark fur, using its long ear whiskers it can sense movement over a mile away
So is any average joe houseca- i mean skitty
I meant skitty
Look I needed a pure dark and I like the ears it’s happening
How about a Pokemon from Charizard’s shadow?
Anti cereal mascot, lures children with cereal and them drains their life energy
I don’t have the energy to disembowel you today
what’s wrong with that idea?
just no
https://previews.123rf.com/images/sean824/sean8241507/sean824150700284/42589443-You-re-an-idiot-Stock-Photo.jpg
Something that’s made out of rubber,
Grass/Water(because very fluidlike motions)
We can call it Poke D.Luffy
I wanted to work with a concept of an elastic Pokemon
But the idea is fleeting
Too much of a blatant ripoff?
It’s just hard to peg down
The closest is my literal Balloon Animal
Chimpuff and Infloato which are rubber balloon monkeys
How about a Pokemon based on poop?
Ground/Water, cause that’s where it’ll end up
Has a symbiotic relationship with Garbodor.
We can call it Earthen
Go fuck yourself
I like myself but I can’t go as far as you
I’m cutting you off, you’ve had enough!
How about a Hawk Pokémon? Or a Red kite (the bird spiecies)
Yes finally my ultra SuMo team is half done! This little girl just hatched! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c7128443f399994e47a9f7da7282ed795fb02bd09030f3e93951efffaaa78bae.jpg
Well done, my deer~
Thanks!
Why Quiet?
I just wanted a Tynamo with a quiet nature. No reason other than that. This team I’m making is my ideal pokemon team. So I want specific natures to match their personalities as I see them.
It’s gonna be slow as fuck
It’s got perfect iv’s or is it ev’s (I get the two mixed up, what ever shows up when you judge your pokemon at the pokemon center) in speed so hopefully that makes up for it
IVs are what you see in the judge menu
EVs are gained by defeating Pokémon
Ok then its IVs then. Thanks Star.
Why tynamo for gen 7 games? Why not something like a pichu for AloRaichu?
Because i like tynamo and its evolutions and i want a team of my favorite pokemon. As for Alolan Raichu,I’m not a fan of it’s design. But I might use one or two pokemon native to Alola.
Congrats! I think I’m going to breed something for USUM, but I have no clue what yet… Maybe I’ll put Aipom on my team idk
Thanks . This will be a team of my favorite pokemon. I already have Ekans, Eevee and Tynamo. So I’m going to go for a cutiefly next. As for the final two I haven’t made up my mind. But whatever you decide to go for I wish you the best of luck! Btw will you be going for a shiny Aipom?
Probably not I’m not much of a Hunter for Shinies
ah Tynamo, my favorite Non Eevee-Based Electric-Type Pokemon. I remember finding one in Chargestone Cave playing blind through a rom of the japanese version of BW and instantly fell in love.
As soon as I saw him I knew I needed it on my team and its been a favorite ever since!
Nice! I’ve been thinking on hunting this one myself.
Jerry Lewis died, age 91… RIP Mr Lewis!
Ah Pokejungle. Same old Same old, Earthen being Earthen… having no news.
lol
Don’t remember you. How long has it been?
Months… I’m he nowhere nearly as much as people like Earthen and Starstorm etc.
I remeber you how are you?
I’ve been playing FFXII:TZA… I love it so much and it only reaffirms my hatred of XV.
I’ve been here for a pretty long time too, but I was absent for a long time
Hey I’m angry for a justifiable reason this time
Okay gtg its almost 12 for me gn bai
I have had a wild summer of games. Ever Oasis, Persona 5, FFXII:TZA, Sonic Mania. in that order.
Same. I play MH4U, ARMS, Splatoon 2, a bunch of PC games, and I just started SoV.
SO MANY GAMES. SO NO MONEY.
Forgot to talk about this yesterday, but damn did stuff get interesting for BnHA
Who here is going to be able to see the Eclipse tomorrow? Sadly I won’t be able to see because I can get the glasses for it?.
I can’t glasses either… my grandmother is watching and is trying to force us to the movies so we can’t see it 🙁
I think around here they are also closing down schools so that kids don’t look up at it without the proper eyewear. I really hope I can get a hold of some glasses though, what a wonderful sight it would be!
About a year ago, an eclipse was visble in Poland, so our teachers gave us all special glasses
Here on Long Island I heard they where closing schools for the day
What the hell?
She fears that we will look up and burn up our eyes
Then get the glasses this shit will never happen again in your lifetime wtf
I won’t be able to see it too, it’s a bummer. Cause I live in Europe.
It’s a full eclipse so everything will go dark for a while :P.
You’ll see the full eclipse? Lucky! here on Long Island it’ll only be a partial eclipse.
I’m in peasant European land so I won’t even see a partial eclipse.
That’s cool. Could you stream it with your Admiin powers?
Yep! I have the day off since I’m in the path of totality for like 2 minutes or something. I’m going out in the middle of nowhere to my grandparents’ house so I can see and hear more without light/noise pollution.
Have fun and stay safe!
For sure, thanks!
Dude just find a way to get the glasses. This is a big deal. You will never get a chance to see this ever again
I just heard that they’re asking them at best buy so I’m heading out now to get some if I can’t find them their I’m going to try Wal-Mart. Your right this is a once in a lifetime thing. I’ll let y’all know when I get some
I have to work…so I doubt I’ll get to see it. ugh.
I asked this before, but if there was a Pokejungle league (like ones in anime) were we all are Sawyer-like characters, what would be your story, where would you be from, what would your partner and team be?
Copied:
I would be a trainer from Alola named Hubert, that moved there when he was little.
His starter was a litten
He caught a pichu before his first trial
after his first trial he found a Grubbin egg
Pichu evolved during the water trial
Litten evolved into Torracat after battling with Totem Salazzle
Before the grass trial he caught an Alolan Grimer that was stealing his trash
In Lush Jungle he met an Oranguru that joined him
He bought a thunder stone for Pikachu (and used it)
Grubbin finally evolved before fighting Totem Vikavolt
After the ghost trial he caught a Stufful
Grimer evolved defending Stufful from a Garbodor
His Torracat evolved
He found a Psychium Z when he got lost in the desert, Oranguru helped him find the exit
Charjabug evolved in Vast Poni Canyon
He found an Aloraichium Z after beating the last trial
He decided to fight the international league (where you’d all be)
He challenged Guzma and won a bugium Z from him and Poisonium Z from Plumeria
Kukui gave him Incinium Z as a goodbye present
Stufful evolved before Huberet entered the league
The final team:
Inci with Incinium Z (partner)
AloRaichu with Aloraichium Z
Vikavolt with Bugium Z
AloMuk with Poisonium Z
Oranguru with Psychium Z
Bewear with Fightium Z
OK I PLAYED TWO ZONES OF SONIC MANIA AND HOLY FUCK
This game is amazing. Like… it’s incredible. The level design is way better than the originals, you have such a good sense of momentum, the animationon everything is great, and it’s just so much fun.
The 60 FPS and Wide field of view make it playable in 2017 and it’s just… IM HAVING FUN WITH A SONIC GAME
Even if you’ve never played a sonic game, play this game. It’s fantastic and Sega needs to see that this is good
Arin “Fuck Sonic” “Bad at Video Games” “Doesn’t listen to Tutorials and then complains about it” “I’m still mad at him about the Zelda Sequelitis” “Egoraptor” Hanson likes it.
(He wasn’t entirely wrong about the Zelda sequelitis tho)
Oh boy, I just got home from a big trip, and I’m super tired. Now I can truly take my brother’s room.
So Pokken Tournament DX si getting a special demo even though it is only an upgraded version of Pokken Tournament. (I am assuming because I haven’t been keeping up with Pokken news). I am starting to think that it is more likely that we are going to get a demo for USUM and everything is going to be leaked! Again!
Also Gamexplain has finally made a second video on the info revealed on Friday. The first video was 11 minutes. This one is nearly 33 minutes. Gamexplain is returning to top form.
I want that Jangmo-O Plush, the Fugtrio ones look dumb and bad, but then so does the Pokemon (to me anyway). Actually the Passimian one is better than I expected, the Stufful is almost real 😛
The cloths at the bottom have walking Pokemon sprites which look nice.
