Guzma & Pikachu Face-Off in Epic Dance Battle

A new live-action commercial has been released for the upcoming Pokémon TCG expansion Burning Shadows and it pits infamous Team Skull and its leader Guzma against a team of Pikachus in a dance battle to end all dance battles.

Whose side are YOU on? I definitely wouldn’t mind seeing more of this creative type of marketing!

  1. So I’m really curious as to what the white silhouette Pokemon is. Obviously it’s Necrozma, but to what end and does that then mean we get 3 Necrozma forms? Or at the very least 3 forms that involve Necrozma? That’s actually something new I don’t think they’ve ever done. (minus the ORAS trio since that’s a remake anyway) Clearly they’ve done new forms for the 3rd legends before and with BW Kyurem they’ve done two forms, but they’ve never done 3 different forms in one 3rd version game. This is like if Kyurem had both of it’s other fusion forms, but then also had one where it had a form on its own. It seems weird to me. Regardless of how this game actually turns out the fact that we have 3 new forms for the legends is still intriguing.

      • Yeah I can dig that. It’s an interesting thing and if it’s a main story part then yeah it’d be cool to find out for ourselves. That said I doubt they’ll let that happen lol

        • Yeah, I’ll probably have to see something of it before but I’ll try to stay away from as much of the story elements as possible.

  5. So, I heard the new patch for Splatoon 2 changed Marina’s dialogue to make her less of a savage and more like how she is in the Japanese version. It doesn’t bother me too much, but I thought her dialogue before was funnier.

  6. Does anyone feel like Shadow Punch should get more BP? Like it’s pretty underwhelming for physical Ghost Pokemon like Dusknoir and Golurk (though Shadow Punch gets boosted by Iron Fist) for that to be their strongest physical Ghost move.

    • Shadow Claw (base 70) is the strongest single turn non-signature physical Ghost move. Shadow Punch is a ‘never miss’ move. Shadow Force (base 120, 2-turn) is the strongest, followed by Spectral Thief (base 90) and Phantom Force (base 90, 2-turn), then Shadow Bone (base 85), then Spirit Shackle (base 80), then Shadow Claw and finally Shadow Punch, that’s all the 60 base attack power and above. A move that is commonly distributed and base 80 like Shadow Ball would be good.
