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?
i barely got thru g/s so far but im already regretting totodile cuz i thought about it and i sorta want to use a kingdra but dont want two water types
Dont, because feraligatr is better and will have its hidden ability when transferred.
Its wonderful hidden ability ^.^
Unlike the majority of other starters 🙁
Serperior’s is pure perfection ?
Serperior’s is quite Serperior.
Venus, Feral, Blaze, Serp and Gren won the HA lottery
Infernapes is also usable.
Yeah and Mach Punch is a pretty neat Priority move that fits it
It’s a shame no one from gen 7 did
Long range can be useful, So can intimidate and Liquid voice is kinda bleh
Triggered Seraph in 3… 2…
You already know Seraph? :0
Maybe I am Seraph ?
I don’t think Seraph likes poison types so much that he would label himself as a “poisonous prince” but I know someone that would 😛
Yea me
I knew it
Fairy?
mhm
Lol so much for going blind
Welcome back. Hype that trailers bring is good
Wait…your Seraph?
No i am
No, I am faker
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iyOkFLuoBc
That’s fairy
No I am
I found long range to only work in specific cases, so it’s not very good tbh
It could a Toxapex counter v.s. Baneful Bunker
Liquid Voice is literally useless
Wish it got pixilate
Anyone playing G/S VC that can get me a Nidoran in a Moon Ball? I want it with its’ HA.
Fat chance Monkeybutt, them balls take 24 hours to make and everything refuses to be caught
I’ve always found it easy. I guess I’ll go look on reddit.
Be nice
*Moons*
Who’s all praying that in USUM we aren’t stupidly limited to one of each apircorn ball ?️
Moi
But… but… that makes them more special 🙁
Me. At Least we know Moon Ball Zorua can now be a thing. Still hoping for wild Metang/Metagross.
Tfw a Beldum kills itself with recoil https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/2386ad796f79e099b7a01386ebc605582097edb0f2c6dcd34dbd681f111f758d.gif
It’s not even that, it can’t be caught in Heavy Ball due to messed up way it’s calculated, same as the Tapus, Metang and Metagross are Heavy enough to work.
It’s part of their plan so you can’t catch them.
Haven’t you noticed ?
Get it all together and put it in a backpack
Along with Nebby
Only a bit related, but I wonder why we never got a Sun Ball tbh
Same, especially as Sun Stone was introduced in the same generation as Apricorn Balls.
I want to repost this just in case some of you didn’t see before
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1cAgcvnHqe_xjKsnrxBO-JP2piL9oEDqp4tvLVnjSCvo/edit?chromeless=1
I did my best, though I’m super tired so sorry if not very good.
It’s ok as long as you trief
this is cool but i dislike that the limit of pokemon is up to 4. sorry but i would like 5-6 especially if you choose 8th as your lineup
I mostly did that to stop people who like to put rudiculous answers like 5 at the first Gym, but I think once I make one for finalists who become the leaders I’ll add the option to up it to 5 or 6
Hey Kurusu would you mind if I gave the personality of my character?
I wouldn’t mind at all
Alright here it goes:
Wilson is a gym leader whose extremely disciplinary and judgemental, putting trainers to their limits and forcing them to unleash their strongest attacks. As such, he is rather merciless in battle, even to weaker trainers he will not show any mercy and then proceed to demolish them in battle. Wilson believes that the Pokemon League system has been somewhat soft recently on trainers, which drives him to unleash everything he has. Additionally, Wilson also believes that willpower is the key essential factor in battles. As such, he is rather distant and cold forwards trainers who lack this will to win and don’t take Pokemon battles seriously. However, to the few who fight with the massive determination to win with sheer willpower, then those are the people Wilson truly recognize, to which he will reward them with the last badge.
His fighting type Pokemon have been to the test, enduring and mastering many techniques and extremely extensive training that makes them astonishingly powerful.
I did it! :3
Shiny hunting is Silver is fun…… till it takes days then its not fun
Kinda like fusing Ultimate Personas because I can never find the right ones to fuse them, and even then, they;re too high leveled for me.
“you can’t handle this”
I mean, if you level up the Strength Confidant enough, they let you fuse Personas that are way more high leveled than you (either that, or you can just grind the Reaper during Flu Season)
You’re insane. Such a tiny chance of getting one. Ive tried before without a charm and it’s not fun. Abandon your efforts
Without***
Why do you do this to yourself
I’m not even crazy enough to try and shiny hunt in the older games hahaha
I feel you, I’ve been resetting for a shiny totodile since I first booted up the VC
I wonder how Shiron and Nebby will interact in the Anime.
Vulpix? I think it might be apprehensive at first freeze it, comically.
I went to EGX yesterday and now I’m partially dead. I did get to meet Rabbid Kong, a Worm soldier and definitely the real Sonic though. Also got to play a little Mario Odyssey, Pokken DX (I don’t have a Switch) as Decidueye, and Dragon Ball FighterZ. I hate queuing, lots of smelly rude people, and walking around looking at things I can get online for nearly half the price.
This is one thing I saw, someone broke the arm off at one point. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DKcReK9XoAEboOZ.jpg
People planning Safari Zone captures in G/S VC, you may not be aware but it was only introduced in HG/SS, G/S only has the closed one in Kanto.
So, I’m watching a comparison between the sub and dub of Ghost Stories (Lemme just say, the dub is hilarious), and from what I’ve seen (which isn’t much), I think I might like the original Japanese version too.
Time to watch some more My Hero Academia
is anyone else having a problem on discus? i was trying to reply to detoxic’s post and now i dont even see the posts at all
They say they are ‘awaiting moderation’ for me.
exactly. and i couldnt reply at all it wouldnt let me. now the posts are just gone
i clicked the user. looks like they deleted their posts?
Dunno, I can still see them and have refreshed.
maybe chrome is acting up
I’m on chrome.
just got on safari. the posts are back but still awaiting moderation which prevents me from replying. ugh this is annoying
Dunno what to suggest, don’t think any mods are here atm.
whatever. well i refreshed chrome like 5 times and the messages are gone. oh well
Just gonna say now it’s been happening for me too, and I’m not doing anything to my posts (think I swore on one tho)
Oh yeah, Disqus is sending automatically comments with swears in moderation
Well I’m back from Lego figures with daddy issues
What did you think? I hated it
It was entertaining but still crap,
Face it they can’t catch the Lego movie’s lightning in that bottle again
With that being said I kinda hope they do a Star Wars IV or Hobbit/Lord of the rings (I mean couldn’t hurt to try)
It confuses me how little they actually used the source material. They could’ve easily scored nostalgia points with the teens who watched the show
Well, looks like the next season of Ninjago is taking from the movie (or something). They changed the suits to look more like the ones in the movie (I think), and they redesigned Lloyd to make him look more like his movie counterpart (They also changed his VA, but it’s a new one entirely)
And why is a that Pakistan guy voicing Jay…
I just hear that guy in various things lately
Prismo Adventure Time
Bees from ATHF
Skip from Bob’s Burgers
And once in Archer
Yo, I wanna see that movie so bad
batman and the original were better i heard
@starstorm295:disqus this was at EGX I went to yesterday https://scontent-lhr3-1.cdninstagram.com/t51.2885-15/e35/21879195_173980699830277_6992700000522207232_n.jpg
!!!!
THAT LOOKS AWESOME
It was life size, thankfully it was cordoned off so weirdos couldn’t touch her. There was a Tracer cosplayer that was pretty much exact except the hair. Also an amazing Samus but when they took their helmet off it was a guy.
Where ma peeps at, I feel bloated and my mouth hates me for getting four teeth pulled and not 100% on this but I think I’m very dehydrated to the point of rambling
I am unaware as to the whereabouts of your ‘peeps’, though might I suggest you hydrate before continuing your arduous search for them. Also hopefully you’ll recover soon and it will have been worth the removal.
Dafaq, now who’s rambling
Nice I just got all three starters via the glitch in Pokemon Gold.? Can’t wait to try our some of the other glitches!
The first three gens have some crazy glitches. They’re really fun
It’s one of the reasons I love playing them so much!
Well Showdown replays are still not working…but they made Monotype an official tier
I know they’re still working on it and it will be a while but I’m trying so hard to not have a genuine panic attack, I have saved so many good battles on Showdown and I just need to rewatch them to give myself a reminder that I’m a good battler
All the Slurpwns, that Charizard Sweep, the Lycanroc Sweep, that time with the asshole with the Chansey, and that one guy who had a whole team that used Assist V-Create
I won’t spoil much but Incineroar literally insult Charmeleon in the movie manga…..that fit with dex entry “It loses the desire to fight when faced with a Pokémon that’s clearly weak or injured, and it sometimes gets taken advantage of as a result” ……..I love this. http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1506139856231.jpg
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1506139764616.jpg
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1506140061861.jpg http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1506139696067.png
I’ve never felt so bad for Ash and a Charmeleon before
What does that have to do with its Dex entry tho? Going by its Dex entry it would’ve stopped but this one kept going
Check the official one on the SM site
That’s the exact opposite of its Dex entry lol
U need to read until the end….”and it sometimes gets taken advantage of as a result”
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ALL MY REPLAYS ARE GOOOOOONNNNEEEEE NOOOO NOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
THEY SAY THEY’RE WORKING ON RECOVERING OLD REPLAYS BUT THEY DONT KNOW HOW LONG ITLL TAKE
Calm down, if they come back they’ll come back but if they don’t brace for the worst.
I try to think positive but I don’t know if that’s possible anymore
So many battles I worked so hard during and don’t have anything to show for it
https://media.giphy.com/media/4NuAILyDbmD16/giphy.gif
I mean you got experience from them hopefully? Each battle helps contribute to you now
Yeah but I you just don’t understand how much I loved some of those battles, especially the ones where the opponent was a jerk and I bested him
It just basically erases 4 years of battles and leaves me with nothing, sure I can have new battles but everything is different now…
I guess I just will have to forget all of those battles and just stop playing for a while… WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN EVERYTHING WAS FINE A FEW WEEKS AGO IMWANNA GOO BAAACCKKKKKKKKK
I’m just gonna lay flat on the ground and sulk….
Hope they get restored dude :/
I need a hug…
Have a happy puggo.

I already have mine https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/8622aac88afe18b850bcf2ed92b4fd4e124bceb6d64e9bcb4b16a328eee55946.jpg
Pleased excuse the grossness of my fat neck

I presume you’re the Solosis
*Hugs*
Well I couldn’t sleep so I took a walk around the neighborhood in the pitch black 5am completely barefoot
I’m still extremely upset by this unfortunate turn of events and I’ll probably be upset for a while but I’m reluctantly beginning to accept the loss and trying to move on but it’s just really really hard to do
That sounds dangerous… Barefoot? God knows the stuff that’s on or been on that ground
My feet are tough as leather, and I walked in the streets and they were clean
Don’t think leather would stop broken glass, the bacteria from animal feces or needles ?
The only danger I’m in is potential panic attacks and starving
Seriously my gut is just growling loud
Beating a fainted Mudsdale, but ngl I really hope we get a Dawn Lycanroc because we’ve got Dusk/Twilight (Japan) and Dawn Necrozma just like we had day and night (Sun and Moon) legends + if they make Dusk Lycanroc a normal evolution in future gens, Midday Lycanroc will have one less hour to evolve than Midnight bc Dusk cuts into its time
Me too but I’m worried that that won’t happen not only because they’re taking quite some time to announce but they’ve already announced the Rockruff event for Dusk and it’s weird for them to announce the Dawn event so late as well.
And this could be another Greninja situation ( Of all the Kalos starters only Ninja got a new form) where only Midday will get a new form for some reason ( cuz let’s admit it, this is more of a Midday form than a Lycan form in general)
Typical, a annoying guy full of legends tries to abuse Heatran and I get him on the ropes only for a Chansey to Twave me and wish his Bulu to life and all I needed was a flamethrower to land and I get paralyzed
Then just spams softboiled until Darmanitan dies from recoil
Only natural to lose to team of legends, you can’t get down that you lost to a totally trolled system
https://www.gamecity.ne.jp/fe/img/dlc/img_pack_img.jpg
Damn, you get Bride Lucina when you buy the FE Warriors season pass.
This waifu thing is getting out of hand
And yet, it’s only Awakening, Fates, and Shadow Dragon…
Want to know a fun fact: In Johto and Hoenn’s League tournaments the announcers call a Machoke, a Machamp during the Victory Tournament rounds.
Eh I don’t remember which is which either
Funny thing: DM Necrozma and DW Necrozma weight is exactly Solgaleo+Necrozma and Lunala+Necrozma.
I also like how Cosmog and Cosmoem are both the lightest and heaviest Pokémon respectively.
And how Cosmoen is also the smallest Pokemon
Well stars are extremely compact and dense
Well, normal stars aren’t really that dense (just very very big), but Cosmoem is more based on neutron star / black hole because of the ‘supernova’ implications it has when it evolves. Neutron stars often have masses twice of our sun but only a 6 mile diameter! That’s almost a quadrillion times the density of the sun!
Cosmoem is so ironic being the smallest Pokémon, but also the heaviest at the same time
