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?
Who was complaining about BF’s voice actors? Cause your right its awful
And is it weird Max has two voice actors between the Hoenn and BF league’s and both voices also played characters in Kirby Right Back at ya?
I think it was me.Yeah, they’re awful. At least Ash’s and Brock’s got better
Give it a Mega, make it Bug/Fighting+Iron Fist (in mega) and give it Power-up Punch+Shadow Punch. Would already make it so much better https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f0afbdf38b037d974118cd9cc0c6087352b38a947694698413ef3bc0cd06651a.png
We need Mega Ariados too.
Yes please, Ledian is criminally underrated
It’s one that I love, but I forget all the time
Yeah, and I’m starting to like these kind of Pkms 😡
Ledian is totally outclassed and cannot merit a slot on any serious team, as Meowstic and Ninjask do everything that Ledian can better defensively and offensively, respectively. It has terrible offensive stats, which nullifies its large offensive movepool, and a shallow support movepool, along with poor defenses and a 4x weakness to Stealth Rock, making it absolutely worthless on any team.
Correct, which is why megas exist. (Existed?) But no, give them to Garchomp and Tyranitar…
Well they had to give some popular Pokémon Mega’s
Alright mr
HP: 55
Attack: 35
Defense: 50
Sp. Atk: 55
Sp. Def: 110
Speed: 85
You get 100 points to play with make it better
Ok I put 20 in speed, 50 in Attack and 20 in Defense and 10 Special Attack
I do good?
Use the formula please
HP: 55
Attack: 85
Defense: 70
Spec. Attack: 65
Spec. Defense: 110
Speed: 105
Blecchh it still makes me vomit, that thing needs a mega on top of its mega
Ugh…still sucks especially with that HP stat.. But somehow they managed with beedrill. Maybe glass cannon route then?
Believe it or not Beedrill only has 10 more HP points
It just got lucky because it has absurd speed and attack and got it’s worthless SpAtk gouged so it could add more that 100 points
HP: 65*
Attack: 105 (+70)
Defense: 80 (+30)
Sp. Attack: 25 (-30)
Sp. Def: 110 (N/A)
Speed: 115 (+30)
Beedrill style minmaxing.
*This would be through a normal buff, not a Mega buff.
Type: Bug/Fighting
Ability: Pure Power
New Moves: All punching moves, Close Combat, Bulk Up
Why are all my comments being marked as spam? Do I look like Seraph to you? :p
Jk Seraph love you brah ?
The only explanation I can find is that someone found your prof pic somehow inappropriate
:Y
You managed to get low rep because Disqus has marked many posts as toxic and shitposting, should be fixed.
But Disqus itself and not people? But why, some of the deleted comments don’t have swears in it so has disqus developed some sort of anti spamming system or something like that?
Yes, and the system is quite bad. It flags comments from newer users who type shorter sentences and post frequently (>5 posts a day) and it flags everytime someone uses a swear word. So even people with 10000 comments on here have gone from high rep to average rep and if they continue to use swear words they’ll likely get all their posts marked as spam too.
Uh, this seems more like a desperate measure than anything.
That sucks, I’m glad that it’s not a troll or anything or I accidentally did something wrong
Thanks for clarifying
Is there anyway to fix this? Is it something PJ can uncheck in the settings? It seems a bit over kill. Many of us are pretty chill and even when we swear it’s typically not malicious. It’s just annoying when I’m trying to be excited about something and it suddenly gets held for review simply because I say the “S” word
Well I’m officially at the point of Silver where I lose interest
Badges: 6
Feraligatr: 30 (Just evolved)
Golbat: 27
Heracross: 28
Sudowoodo: 27
Now to flush out Team Rocket in their base in Mahogany Town and yadda yadda yadda I want my friggin Phanpy now, and I want everyone in the mid thirties before Clair otherwise the elite four will be just grind grind grind
I’ll probably stop once my starter fully evolves and wait until Bank becomes compatible to transfer all the starters
Seems like a waste, you could just play the game and beat it and just either reset the game and then transfer
For Arceus’s sake you have seven weeks until USUM and surely you could beat the game 5 times over if you worked on it
I mean I beat Blue in a day via Emulator (but I had the throttle on)
What’s your other planned team mate?
Also use surf to grind on Tentacool and Cruel, they give different exp
The rest were Donphan Ursaring and Tyranitar but those buttwipes decided to make them after Blackthorn and the freaking game
Can’t even catch Teddiursa in Silver
I would trade but it’s wireless only >:/
But Larvitar isn’t available till post game
@Kurusu How’s the Gym Leader thing going?
It’s going good if I get one more person to apply then I have all 8 Gyms
So far the order is
1.
2. Grass
3. Fire/Ice (Dependent on other options in the game)
4. Electric or Psychic (Two people wanted this spot so it will be difficult to decide. Unless you or Dazzling wants to be first gym?)
5. Flying
6. Dragon
7. Ground
8. Fighting
I’m not sure if dazzling is here. If they’re not willing to Switch to the first gym, I can.
Alright, I’ll wait and see then we can make the change
Good part is that their is an early on electric type in the game and their will quite a few Electric in the region
Oooh, I’m intruigued! Could you tell me some more about them? Maybe I could choose my signature.
Well one is a Pure Electric type in the first stage (it actually is already designed) and evolves into an Electric/Dark type
https://i.imgur.com/MourIw4.jpg
https://i.imgur.com/LYRRhvx.jpg
Then a two stage Water/Electric battery (its based on Hydro electric energy)
The Last that had been made (so far) is Dark/Electric small virus creature that evolves twice
Note there are over 200 Pokémon and I’ve only made about 80-90 ish already, so more will come as I think them up
From these 3 It’d choose the Water Electric one, but I think there could be a more fitting mon. If you want/don’t mind, I could think of one Electric type myself. But, I think I’ll like the Hydro Energy one even more when I’ll see the design!
Yeah the design is not yet done, but I’m trying to make it super cool (and not just a blue and yellow battery)
Who’s each one? :0
Well the 2, 3, 5 and 7th are of my own creation
While Buttergeek now is 1st with Electric
Dazzling is 4th with Psychic
6th is Monkeyfuzz with Dragon
And 8th is Golden_Flygon for Fighting
The badges in order are: Plasma, Autumn, Frost/Blaze, Bow, Aero, Mythic, Highland, Ascension
Omfg the stupid Disqus ruins my replies if I accidentally say sh*t
How can you accidentally say sh*t?
Because he’s already used to saying sht
Just thought ya’ll would know the answer to this but the Fire Emblem Warriors game, is it only playable on the New 3DS or can I use my original one to play it?
I think it’s New 3DS Exclusive
I think every 3DS game can be played on both xl and normal
Wait nevermind
It’s only for New 3ds and New 2dS
Well that has to suck
HW Legends was on the original 3DS and it ran like crap, so I can see why
So what’s everyone been up to?
Trying to play some FE games before FE switch comes out
Flying back to my university because my surprise break is ending.
Trying to avoid playing showdown, so far I e had at least 16 battles today
I’ve been sleeping
How do you know you’re still not sleeping?
What if this is all a dream star..a dream…starrr…:P
I’ve been playing Persona 5
On the way to face Clemont the art of science!
Lumiose city is so big did you guys know demographically speaking it’s larger than all of Kantos cities and towns put together!
I just realized, the Male Team Flare Admin looks like Shido in a white coat.
I need a Fakemon idea
So far I have a Dark/Psychic Lunar Wolf but I need better names
How’s Lupup-Wargrowl-Dyvinir
Or something I need ideas
Lycune (Lycan +Lune)
Selupa (Selene + Lupa)
Lilune (La Lune + ‘lil’)
All bad, I’m just tired dude
Yeah these are poo on second thought my names are perfect
Lupus-puppy
Warg-growl
Divine-Fenrir
They’re all a bit basic tho, not every name has to a portmanteau
how about Crescowl, (Crescent moon + Scowl, to cry out in hatred) Rovereap (Rover, a common dog synonym and reap, like the grim reaper) or Bullquinox (Bull dog + Equinox, a special time of year based on the position from the sun, in fall and spring.)
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7nu-636106397
Well my replays are dead so time to make new memories

If Earthen’s doing it I’ll do it just because it’s so quiet >:(
Dark/Fairy-type, based on the cu sidhe (Fairy dogs), hellhounds and Garm from Norse mythology, as well as Orthrus and Cerberus from Greek Mythology. Dark/Fairy
Hund (Hound + Un, pronounced Hoond)
Hundeux (Hund + Deux)
Hundeuxtrois (Hundeux + Trois)
If you guys every play XY again, Lumiose Museum is a must go to place. It has some really beautiful artistic depictions of the poke world and its histoy!!!
It’s so fun to hear your comments on the games after so long. XY weren’t perfect, but they certainly had their place in history. After all they were the games that got the main Pokemon games into the world of 3d
Aww thanks:)
I’m playing Y 4 years later so the games are kinda fresh experience for me.
Back then I liked XY but now I’ve fallen in love with them.
It’s just such a well designed game, region etc
Too bad you can’t actually look at it
I knooow they look so good from far don’t they :O
I wish they had the option to let you just look at it fullscreen ?
On subject of XY these games are amazing.
GF captured the french theme sooo damn well everywhere I go I feel beauty, artistry..
Kalos is so damn beautiful as is its history/lore and the mons just make this game well worth it.
Every time I enter a new route or location im wow’d by how beautiful this region is.
Easily the most beautiful and diverse (by design) region imo
Kalos is certainly an interesting region. The major problem with it is that it feels empty in some cases. It’s so big, but the translation from pixels to 3D models certainly shows. They definitely learned from XY. Bringing what works and leaving what doesn’t. That’s why even tho Alola is relatively linear it feels so big and expansive.
True I mean they were the first 3D games after all. I think a sequel or a remake a few centuries later would solve that 😛
But seriously Kalos is just toooo beautiful and its not empty. I felt the same but since playing it for about 2 weeks now I can see that these games are sooo underrated.
Don’t get me wrong I really liked XY a lot It’;s just I can see where people are coming from when they criticize them. Either way fun games
Yup me too but it got me thinking what’s the deal with Kalos XY and I was like I’ve only played it once compared to a million playthroughs of other poke games.
So I got Y and imo every game has flaws but the strong points of XY are very very good. Shame we never got a Z! :S
Earthen and Detoxic (I forgot Who you were) were posting fakemon, so here’s radiation based line!
Radolonium (Radium + Polonium)
Poison/Fairy
The Small Radiation Pokemon
They look out so they won’t hurt near pokemon with their radiation. They weren’t discovered for a long time.
Evolves at level 38 into into
Macurie (Marie Curie)
Poison/Fairy
The Healthy Radiation Pokemon
As Radolonium grow, they become more aware of the radiation’s power. They can use it to heal, attack and defend other pokemon
Signature Ability:
Poison Aura
If a pokemon is in the battle for 5 turns or longer while Radolonium/Macurie is in battle, it becomes poisoned, even if it’s a Poison or Steel type
Why are they Fairy-type?
Radiation always seemed to me like a fairy type thing. It’s like a magical aura that kills you. Also, the pokemon are supposed to be small spirits with good will, which many fairy types are.
ITS DECAYING NUCLEI WHICH CAUSES OUR PARTICLES AND ATOMS MOVE AROUND AND CAUSE WEIRD BAD STUFF HOW IS IT FAIRY ARRRGGHHGGHHGGH
Radiation a magical aura…..
Atleast your second explanation makes sense
I mean… Radiation is really scientific, and unlike other scientific phenomena wasn’t popularly confused for magic in older ages? The second bit makes more sense but imo makes more sense for a pure Fairy that purifies rather than being radioactive itself
Sooo I’ve noticed that I’ve become very robotic when playing games like OCD fam seriously.
What I’m doing with my Y playthrough is to re connect with my gaming self.
I’m just playing the game however the Furfrou I want and just enjoying myself.
It’s allowed me to enjoy the journey rather than force myself to the destination!
Damn. I didn’t realize how many Pokémon games I’ve racked up over 7 years of playing the games. This doesn’t even include Sun and my extra platinum and Y version https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1472749c4ab602e945c838e9b9c39ea67030aadb26d901871adfe67d168a72d1.jpg
Neeeeeeerd :p
Yeeeeee
(Yes I spent 15 minutes putting every pokemon related thing into a big pile I’m bored as fuuuuck)
Uh, that’s pretty impressive :0
I wonder how big this collection is going to be within another 7 years 😛
I imagine a lot of it will be lost because it’s a miracle i still even have that huge binder of Pokémon cards
Nice!! I wonder how much stuff I really have after………..21 years of being a fan…….I’ve lost a lot of my old figures and now only have a shoe box full of them. Sometimes I wish I could go back in time and make sure the old toys and merch that I had was safe somewhere so I’d still have it now……
I know I had a lot more figures but I have no clue where they would be
You have a Lucario plush? Nice (I also see some manga). I see some amiibo too (I have both of them and a Mewtwo for Pokemon amiibo)
A traded my friend a cloned shiny Lopunny for it in like 7th grade :0
Ex-hacker Star
Ex? ?
Cool, forgot to mention I also had a Greninja amiibo, and I don’t just own Pokemon amiibo
I’d say you made out like a Salandit then hahaha
Earthen, Detoxic, and Butter Geek were posting fake on so it is time to throw my hat into the ring.
Heliophant (helio+Hierophant+Elephant)
Fire/Psychic
The Elusive Elephant Pokémon
A standalone Pokémon
As a result of honing its evasion in the face of the sandile line, it gained unique legs, capable of absorbing the energy from the sun to power them and make unbelievably quick movements in a short amount of time.
Signature Ability:
Strong Legs
It is like huge power or pure power but it doubles speed.
HP 100
ATK 120
DEF 95
SPA 40
SPD 95
SPE 55
BST 505
I sure love myself some Fake ons!
Huh… the Pokken Wii U shadow Mewtwo amino card doesn’t work with super Mario maker
It does work with Zelda though
I wonder if there’ll be a Pokken Deci amiibo someday
Considering that the rest of Pokken doesn’t have any, I doubt it
I mean other than the Mewtwo card are there even any other Pokken Amiibos to begin with?
If there was, it’d have been announced already. Lately Nintendo tends to announce the Amiibos of a specific game before it comes out
He will get one when smash 4.5/5 comes out
No, Inci will get one when smash Switch comes out (don’t you dare think otherwise, replying is pointless)
is pointless
How are you so sure about that 😛
Because I prefer to be optimistic
I prefer to be realistic. Then again, I do want Joker (Persona 5) for Smash, and while it’s possible, there’s not a big chance of that happening.
It really isn’t possible though.
It is. Nintendo’s got 3rd Party support from Atlus (Granted, they’re porting SMT V and not P5, but still). And while this isn’t exactly a great point, but this wouldn’t be the first time Nintendo’s put a character from an M Rated game in Smash. I’m not saying it will happen, I’m just saying it can happen.
They aren’t porting SMT V they are creating SMTHD/Next for the Switch as the target platform just to clarify. And like you said that is not P5 and P5 will never come to the system so yeah. And it doesn’t matter what 3rd parties support them it doesn’t change the likelihood of anybody appearing or not appearing.
And unrealistic too? ?️?️
Not really
But srls, do you have any good reason as to why Inci is going to appear in the new Smash port? I’ve asked that before and you just say it’s only to be optimistic
It’s a semi popular Pokemon based on fighting…. Like all the other fire starters
Only one fire starter got in Smash and it’s not even based on fighting, the only Pkm on Smash based on Fighting is Cario. And not only that, but I doubt a port would add a new character from a game released a year ago instead of a character from a more recent game.
And neither Smash 5 that it’d be around when gen 8 comes out and they’d most likely choose a Pkm from that gen
I’m saying that Inci isn’t special at all lol
Oh I get it now -_-
Fam smash switch will come out 2019/20 meaning it’s anywhere between a year or two after Gen 8
Inci’s not getting in
It could be Christmas 2018
Either the same year or a year after* Pokemon Switch is 2019.
Not confirmed, I think it’ll be 2019 but you don’t know with Nintendo
It isn’t confirmed but it is far more likely than next year. As for Smash eh I dunno or care.
It’s defo when I’m expecting it but the most recent gens have been pretty rushed so I’m not above expecting it sooner
I wouldn’t count on it with how they worded the announcement. They said it was more than a year away meaning late 2018 at the earliest but more likely just not 2018 at all.
Idk, it’s Greninja in Smash and Braixen in Pokken so for all we now Smash is gonna have Popplio or a Gen 8 Pokemon
Is a Smash 4 port going to have new characters at all? Or even a Pokemon one? Smash 5 would have but Sakurai stated that Sm4sh is the last game is his last one sooo
I know it’s just speculation but I still find kinda unlikely that a Smash port would have new characters
To any DHMIS fans:
Did you see the Gumball Puppets episode? I thought it was just the right amount of scary for a mix of a kids show with DHMIS
That’s a weird crossover but honestly, which crossover isn’t
Seeing as all Smash games have 5-6 years between them, I’m calling it now that Gen 7 gets snubbed like 2, 3 & 5
Buuuut Innnccccciiiiii
Buuuuuut Feraligatr
Buuuuuut Sceptile
Buuuuuut Samurott
What if smash Switch introduces these Four mons and is for smash like what Odyssey is for Mario and BotW is for Zelda
10 pokemon? really breaking new ground
Just like Odyssey is rn for mario
Smash is a 2D character fighting game that hasn’t drastically changed at all in the decade odd its been out, Mario and Zelda varied heavily before they came out with their newest games
And other franchises need more rep
Gen 8 better have fucking amazing Pokemon then
route 215 suuucks
i dont like the rain
it makes me sad
but the music is great so im ok with it
Route 210 without defog is way worse 🙁
cant wait until the sinnoh remakes get rid of the stupid parts of sinnoh so it can shine :3
I hope we still have defog soley because we could really use a defog hm
TM*
What counts as stupid to you especially since you seem to love Sinnoh.
im not goona deny that defog and the super slow swamp and snow stuff is really dumb
So really just the slow parts? That is one of the things I’m sure they will fix. Dunno about Defog though.
well assuming they keep pokeride defog wouldnt even be an issue
Right.
Sup boi-os?
MY GIBLE DIED BECAUSE HES SO UNDERLEVELED AND ITS GOONA TAKE FOREVER TO GET HIM BACK TO THE REST OF THE TEAM
NUUUU
at least its not a nuzlocke
Like I always do :3
