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!

“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.

“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. OH COME ON
    Even when I win I still lose
    I managed to wipe a Fairy Mono with my fighting types and the replay couldn’t be saved

  2. Not sure if I should get a Naive Marshadow for HP Ice or wait until tutors to see if it gets Avalanche or something, or just go Jolly with Rock Tomb. Not sure how much better HP Ice would be un-invested vs Ice Punch anyway so that’s an option.

  3. I’m in northern California where the terrible fires are going on. The past few days the sky has been super hazy and the smell of smoke is around all day, but it’s worst in the morning. Honestly it’s kinda scary. Let’s hope that our area remains safe, but I still feel bad for all the neighboring cities.

  4. Ash and the gang talking about a cute mysterious (legendary) pokemon.
    The Pokedex doesn’t recognize it, so they decide to name it.
    One of the girls makes a cute name based on the pokemon

  5. Well I got my Marshadow codes
    3 of them
    Soft reset until jolly or whatever….

    Maybe try to a shiny wimpod but that’ll never happen, I just wish there was a way I can get a perfect shiny Golisopod legally

    • I mean it doesn’t really put anything in perspective for me because they’re not trying to make a big realistic world but don’t feel overly small either (minus Alola)

  6. Hi! I’m from Argentina, and we don’t have the Marshadow distribution here 🙁 Does anyone have a spare code to share, please. I would really appreacite it 🙂

    Reply
    • From what Ive heard they’re region locked so you might need to find someone with a spare marshadow and just have them trade it

      Reply
    • First you need to know if you are seeking PAL, NA or Japanese code, (I think it’s just those 3 different types). I’m assuming you need NA. There are some giveaways on various subreddits sometimes, as well as possibly facebook pages. I’d suggest trying trade forums too and maybe try again here another time.

    • Abilities? Natures? Probably Talonflame for strength and coverage unless you already have a Flying type, though you can make do without. I prefer Flareon design-wise.

      Reply
      • Both are from WT so they’re probably not all that but i have to stick to the rules. I’m using Fletchinder at the moment for the Grass trial (i can get a Fire stone in Diglett tunnel, but only after the trial), but after that i’m not sure which to pick

        Reply
        • Well Talonflame can have Flame Body or Gale Wings, even with the Nerf Gale Wings can be useful, especially in-game. Flareon gets Flash Fire and Guts, both potentially useful in the Fire trial along with Dig but since you’ve passed that it’s irrelevant. I guess it comes down to which you like best, since both are flawed, Talonflame has more Weaknesses but also more strengths.

          Reply
          • Can be useful for potential burns, give it roost and maybe will-o-wisp too. Its’ strongest moves are self-damaging so Leftovers could be a good item option. Alternatively go Flareon, make use of Firium Z with Flare Blitz and the useable special attack could be helpful since unless it has Wish it lacks recovery options outside of Rest.

        • Oh please name somebody (who isn’t me) who willing runs a ground mono run outside the ramifications of type monoings for every type

          Reply
          • Not really lol? Monos of any type are gonna be more common than Eevee runs because they’re more flexible

            You’re not special for liking Ground types

            At all

          • ok that was just beyond mean
            But my point still stands lame boring cliche Eeveelution team. Do something a little more original (and thinking ahead I do the ground runs as testaments to my dedication not just for fun)

          • It’s not mean, it’s the truth. Ground monos are more common than Eevee runs so you’re a huge hypocrite.

          • Googling eevee mono runs and I get so many results for both in game and competitive

            And Ground mono has significantly less results

            And by results articles and forums dedicated to the idea, many many sites list Eeveelution teams for different campaigns and if you search for Ground mono, like I said very little results

            So you don’t think Ground runs are more popular or used than Eevee then you’re just disagreeing just to disagree with me

          • It could just be Eevee runs get more responses or that there’s more competitive Eevee teams when I’m solely speaking about in game teams

            Because you can’t search all the Internet, your source is unreliable

            The only thing you win is biggest bitch here

          • There were plenty that said In-Game as well, So how is that any different then saying their more popular and used than Ground mono runs

            And at least I give answers and responses based on some info instead of bluntly assuming or backing it up

    • So what I’m gonna do is breed all nine Eevees (including Eevee itself) and rotate them around, rule is they can’t hold any items besides the Soothe Bell or their type’s Z Crystal (for Eevee Everstone is permitted for grinding) and I must obtain all nine of their Z-Crystal types before the Elite Cour!

  7. Ok a challenge. Make a unique Theme team of 6 Pokémon (unique meaning the theme cannot be: Mythical mono, Eevee Mono, Pika mono, Legend Mono, Regionals mono (bird, bug, rodent, pseudo), common type monos, starter mono, ect.)

    Like an example
    Africa Mono
    -Donphan (Elephant)
    -Pyroar (Lion)
    -Girafarig (Giraffe)
    -Rhyperior (Rhino sorta)
    -Ambipom (Monkey)
    -Krookodile (Crocodile)

    Now your turn.

        • They usually do, be it because an actor passed away, left or was fired. It’s sad but they also have to think about the story and whether it still needs the character.

          Reply
          • He was the main character after all. I saw an interview Where Del Toro talked about how perfect Anton was for that role…

          • Oh he was? I haven’t seen the show. Do you know if he completed it all? He may have already had his part finished by another actor, you’d probably be able to tell. In TMNT they changed the voice of Leonardo because they had to replace the first actor after (I think) firing him, so it does happen.

  8. Alright I’m going to speculate my team for Silver (my bro’s gettin’ Gold)

    -No Clue for Starter
    -Noctowl or Xatu
    -Jumpluff, Magmar, or Gyarados (Depending on starter)
    -Umbreon or Espeon (Espeon will only if I don’t choose Xatu)
    -Aipom
    -Donphan or Sudowoodo

    Other options: Gengar, Golem, Machamp, Granbull, Politoed, Girafarig, Forretress, Bellosum, Yamna, Heracross, Azumarill, Togetic, or a Kanto Starter (transfer from Yellow, then egg)
