PokéJungle Does New York Comic Con

I had the pleasure of attending New York Comic Con on Sunday, October 8, 2017 and running into all these wonderful people cosplaying as our favorite characters from Pokémon. They were all ecstatic to be shared on PokéJungle too, whether they were familiar with us or not. Check them out!

Mario Guerra & daughter

“I’m glad she’s into Pokémon and not My Little Pony, or else I’d be dressed like a pony.”

Team Skull was too busy trying to win some free swag, or possibly steal it.

@MaxBien & friends

“Where my Nurse Joy at?

This Pikachu did not want to Play Nice when I asked for a quote. Not even a Growl.

@ill.meethercosplay

“Prepare to burn…?”

The little Squirtle was shy when I asked if he knew what sounds a Squirtle makes, so I’ll just put down “Glub, glub, glub.”

Zachary Fuld & @kim_ception

“Don’t catch ’em all.”

They didn’t seem like they actually knew any Team Rocket lines.

@cuddlycactus, @_jeanster_ & son

“What would Ash say?” I asked the kid. He simply shrugged his shoulders and walked away.

@danjerface & @gogo_incognito

“I’ve seen a lot of strange Pokémon around and when I ask them if they’re well, they run away. I think Team Rocket is behind it, I saw them somewhere around here.”

  1. So, along with getting Gundam Versus yesterday, I also got One Piece Burning Blood and a $20 PlayStation Store card today. Burning Blood is pretty cool so far

  2. I still don’t understand why people are upset about 2 Z-Moves… I’m pretty darn sure you couldn’t use Both on 1 Pokemon.. they would grow too tired. Sure Baton pass exist but….
    And, many Pokemon are no good competitively with z-item alone..
    It wouldn’t change much.. at least not too much

    And do all editors here have to be adorable ?

  3. ALSO!! GUYS!! I have went through my old Pokemon games, and I have found gold. Now tht I have Pokebank, I discovered some Pokemon I forgot I had in Dream balls!! I somehow got a Larvatar in a Friend ball, so I’ll be breeding those Pokemon. Going back to the topic, I find the expression of the James above to be funny for some reason. All the pics are adorable, none the less.

    The Team Skull and the Flareon ones are my favorite though.

  4. Comicon just stirs up bad memories
    My first comicon my brother ditched me do he and his friends could do the stuff they wanted to and I had to be by myself seeing nearly everyone else in a happy group (mostly nerdy couples)

  5. I’ve got some good ones from when I went to Soda City Comic Con in South Carolina this year:

    I brought the stuffed Dunsparce I made and this Skull Grunt tried to steal her. Found some more grunts later. Finally, there’s a picture of Flop the Dunsparce. I didn’t dress up, but carried her around on my shoulder.

  7. YouTube actually gets me ready and inspired to get up and do something with my life..
    Then I realize half the day is gone and I’d be better off waiting to start tomorrow on the right foot ;_:

  8. Oh, while we’re here talking about assorted disappointments, I must share one:
    Mega Latias. I don’t care if she was good in battle. She was definitely fun to soar with. BUT there is one thing I cannot forgive: SHE WASN’T RED.

    She looked nearly identical to Mega Latios and that sucked. Observe the fan-colored versions below, aka how they should have looked. I can think of no reason that she could not be red in the game.

      • Maybe that was the point, to try and make them seem like the same thing. An unnecessary move and as these pictures show they looked better in their own colours.

        Reply
        • When we first saw pictures of them, I thought they were the same except for eye color. Apparently Latias is a little smaller and soars a little different (haven’t gotten to that part in AS yet)

          • Having only started with XY, and only played previous games after that fact, I’m pretty chill with whatever Gamefreak decides to do. There are usually things I love and things I hate in every game. But this one little thing was just SO stupid. It would’ve taken what? 2 lines of code to change the colors?

            Pokemon walking with you? Big deal. A whole battle facility? Big deal. Different battle formats, the PSS, the minigames… all of those are big things. I might’ve been disappointed by some of the other Megas, or some of the Pokemon, but this was just so stupid and easy to fix.

    • I don’t mind the fact they’re both purple because they’re meant to look more similar, I just wish they were easier to tell apart. Like, different shades of purple closer to their OG colours or accents of their OG colour

  9. ARRRGHH WHY MUST JIRACHI EXIST
    I find out they’re suspect testing monotype something I haven’t done in months because SM introduced everything that doesn’t make Ground types feel welcome and I use my Fighting mono and this Steel mono jerk was mostly easy pickings until he pulled Z-Happy Hour Jirachi and swept my team and has the absolute nerve to give me shite about my team.

    “Oh you had the type advantage you should’ve won easy” the absolute nerve
    “What idiot doesn’t run Keldeo and Terakion” I want to just kill him

      • Esplain the festival all I remember that you should hold onto gold star crap and get tokens and yadda yadda boobies and such

        And I’m pouring a lot of money into Cranbies this season at least 50

        Reply
        • From what I know of it, on the day of the Festival you take all of your gold star stuff and put in the empty display stand. Then you have it judged and as long as you get at least 90 points you get first place. Then you take all your points and you bet them on the green side of the prize wheel (or something like that? I haven’t actually done it, but I’ve watched some videos on it.) And then before you end the festival you can take all of your gold star items back with you as long as you remember to grab them back

          • Ok plans for da fall
            Upgrade tools to Steel
            Keep descending the mine (up to 60 last check)
            Work on barn and well (it just would save me a trip)
            And start buying animals since my Dog “Barp” don’t make me money
            But I have like no hay to feed the animals and need a major pay day to fund all this

          • Yeah I read somewhere that you should save most of the tall grass to turn into hay until when you have a silo so luckily I did that.

        • There are 9 slots make sure you fill them all, there are categories for the different stuff like vegetable and fruit, flower, artisan goods, cooking, etc. have items from at least 6 of the categories, besides that yeah just use the best quality stuff you can and the most profitable stuff you can (professions that affect value on sell affects these still). After that yeah go to the wheel and always bet half your stars and bet on green. Even if you lose keep trying until you have at least 3,400 stars. If you run out of stars you can just reset the day if you need to.
