Today’s the day, two (three, really) “new” Pokémon games are now available worldwide!
To tide us over until Pokémon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon are released, Pokkén Tournament DX is now playable on the Nintendo Switch, and Pokémon Gold & Silver have been re-released on the 3DS/2DS’ Virtual Console! Both are available for purchase digitally on the Nintendo eShop, and physically in stores across the globe (Gold & Silver physical versions only available in Europe and Japan).
Those who purchase Pokémon Gold & Silver anytime between now and September 21st, 2018 will receive a serial code to obtain the Mythical Pokémon Celebi in your Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon games. In addition, by downloading the games before January 15th in North America (December 31st, 2017 in Europe or September 28th, 2018 in Japan) you’ll also receive a free 3DS theme featuring Lugia or Ho-Oh depending on which version you purchased. If you purchase the download code from either Best Buy, Amazon or GameStop you’ll also receive this gorgeous theme featuring the important characters of Gold & Silver!
Check out their trailers below:
Which games will you be picking up? Pokkén Tournament DX to get your Pokémon fix on the Switch? Pokémon Gold & Silver for the nostalgia? Or both?
Can you only get the 3ds theme if you pre ordered the games or can you get it whenever?
Nevermind I’ve read the article haha
Hey Earthen and Kuppo I made a meme out of that Heracross smile: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f4c93a6a654b780f2facf3820f3b4fc7efe0c519211f6dc6ee85932d39c2f190.jpg
Well they did until gen 5 pretty much
Lol this face scared me for a moment
XD
Literally half of the NPCs say that they have good Pokémon, and then Jigglypuff one shots them. These games taught me that lying is okay.
Necrozma keep the same type as Lunala and Solgaleo in both forms …..ok I am not surprised but did anybody notice in Dawn form he actually stab Lunala in the back.
* I actually like the orginal form more than dusk and dawn one……I hope we have more Necrozma forms.

These figures look better than the actual models and artwork
Kinda
I can already tell with the photo booth and surfing this game is gonna have better mini games than most Pokemon games. Dare I even say all. Good game/ 10
But it is never put it past Nintendo to use a good concept and make it bad. Crossing my fingers
I can’t even think of any other minigames though?
I use ‘minigames’ broadly it basically means something to do that doesn’t require battling
Surfing with pikachu
Pokeathelon
Contest
Secret bases
Underground
Pokemon musical
Pokemon Amie games
PR videos
But pokeathlon was amazing and perfect
But quality is starting to come out on top. Plus I am really loving the camera feature
I think a certain boss in Samus Returns is one of my favorite bosses now… if you’ve played it you probably know the one
That crazy drill robot thing. As soon as I saw it pop up I just kept thinking WHEN CAN I KILL THIS THING??? Then when it chases you it’s awesome and crazy. And then the actual boss fight is super brutal until you learn the attacks. Super freaking cool
The surf minigame is insanely cool, reminds me of Soaring from ORAS. Nice to see that Mina has a trial, but I guess that means no hope for Gyms. Interesting to note that in the battle against her she only has 3 Pokemon, so anyone hoping for a difficulty curve will sadly be let down.
I mean they could make them post game but probably not
Welp time to give Silver a rest for the day

Tomorrow I aim for Ecruteak City
Just, wow… you’re breezing through it like nothing. Like I know you did play a Gen 2 game earlier this year but wow.
I’m about to wipe Moon so I can get all of the ash pikachu, is there anything item wise that I should trade over to Sun before I do? I already traded the lucky egg. Should I bother with the apricorn balls? Something tells me they’ll be way more common in USUM if Gamefreak has any sense at all
Good night http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1506108353526.jpg
Totes adorbs
Y many ppl catch Forretress he only can use normal move in gen 2???
Nothing good
And speaking of steel types they have the absolute nerve to give the Metal Coat in post
What a dick move
It really is, they advertise the addition of Steel and Dark and make all the good ones freaking post game
Let’s be honest, only Houndoom (which was post) and umbreon were good back then. Bless gen 4
Been playing Pokken DX for a few hours now, Im really liking playing as Decidueye
Oh god, my eyes are burning. Well, that’s what I get for playing Persona 5 all day

Battlefront II, USUM, and Skyrim Switch all come out on the same day…ughhh whyyyy
I went into Pokken expecting everything to be okay…
Than I learned what Darkrai was capable of…. Oh god….. it’s scary
But the game is fun af
If I would buy Pokken I will do that just cuz Darkrai ……look at it ….he’s perfect. http://i.imgur.com/OP6T2lf.jpg
He’s actually really really good. He’s a little hard to learn and will take a lot of practice (mainly because his attacks have weird effects) but he’s extremely strong.
I might pick it up if I got some extra scratch from my birthday in 3 weeks
You’ll have me to slaughter you ;3
Lay off I’m extremely out of practice
I am too but I gotta be the best
The new info is pretty neat. Since I wasn’t expecting anything, no way to be disappointed. Overall nothing special, but the mantine ride is pretty cool, especially since now you can actually visit Alolan seas.
Ok so I’m probably the only one here who was super into the Lego Ninjago show in Cartoon Network as I was actually kinda excited about the movie but god… what a disappointment
Barely used the source material, lack of visual comedy, predictable characters, bland writing, and just… hell, the environments aren’t even made of legos anymore. Ya know how I’m the Lego movie in the very first scene you see that lava made of legos? Yeah. None of that here.
They even reuse shots. A lot. It’s lazy.
You have a giagantic budget and you reuse shots?
Just… it’s so frustrating.
It came out?
It came out today
Aw really, it looked so good :^[
Nooo that’s so disappointing. I don’t really mind it not all being made out of lego because it’s not like every shot from The Lego Movie was hand built. Most was cgi.
I’m super into the show still
Welp, I didn’t get to play Silver that much today but I am happy with my progress. So far. I should have more time on Saturday. But if Earthen’s experience is an indication of the difficulty of getting a Heracross, then I will be spending a lot of time trying to get one.

So I found Shofu and CrimsonCbad on Pokken tonight and managed to beat them…. what the fucc
Early days fam
Shofu played since the first Pokken and was one of its best players
Your point?
You weren’t spamming, weren’t you ?
Decidueye basically is unable to spam
Omg I just can’t believe how good Samus Returns is… that final boss though
Got my order in for the Xenoblade 2 Special Edition! Aw yiss, sexy boxart is mine.
Need a final team member for my Pokemon Silver playthrough and I need opinions. My team as it will be is Typhlosion, Crobat, Quagsire, Heracross (which I got on my first headbutt tree which surprised me) and Umbreon)
The choice is either:
Miltank – Body Slam/Rollout/Fire Punch/Milk Drink
or
Girafarig – Stomp/Psybeam (Psychic’s for Umbreon)/Crunch/Iron Tail
Where are you right now, I just beat Whitney last night and stopped
I’m about to face Whitney now but it won’t be difficult for me probably.
I just wanna use Pokemon I haven’t used before yanno?
Miltank
Yo, anyone here?
Ya boi ultron
I think so
I’m back, but watching Hoenn league battles
Okay Ive decided that I do quite like the mantine surfing minigame. Wish they had revealed it a while ago though
