  1. Do you guys know if the Necrozma form change is like Kyurem where it can change and change back, or is it a permanent change? I basically want to know if I have to buy both copies of the game to get both Necrozma forms (I already have both Solgaleo and Lunala)

    Reply

    • I don’t know for sure, but I’d be willing to bet they wouldn’t force people to make that decision. It’s prolly something you can change back and forth as you please. I don’t think they’ve ever made any forms that are “permanent” in that way.

        • Oooooooh ok I get ya. Meanwhile they can’t shut up about how great Emerald is at the same time…….Pokemon fans are so weird

          Reply

          • Not surprised in the slightest. It’s more like the former anyway. Also why did you feel the need to put Rayquaza in a spoiler? Emerald is a 13 year old game hahaha

          • because USUM lets you do something similar and I’m spoiler tagging it so people don’t notice

          • Because Pokemon fans LOVE to complain. They’ll complain to the end of time. It doesn’t even matter if they get what they want. If it’s not up the highest standard and the games aren’t the end all be all it’s trash for whatever reason. Even when they get what they want it’s still not enough. There are many gaming fandoms like this bear in mind

          • Nope, they still need to reach the hands of the average person. Then the real ridicule will start hahaha

          • The only pokemon games that I’ve ever legitimately seen fans call trash are X&Y though. Everything else is just complaints about features of the games, which are all usually fair criticisms. Just because we love pokemon doesn’t mean we can’t critique it.

          • Not saying critiques aren’t good. Just saying sometime people completely condemn certain games without properly weighing the pros and cons. Like to a lot of fans if it doesn’t have BF then it’s not worth playing. That or they’ll play, but constantly complain that the BF isn’t in it.

          • Oh well yeah, it’s the ultimate way to battle in pokemon. They’ve given it to us I think 3 times now, taking it out has always left a huge hole. It should def be complained about every time. Just battle tower and factory skins don’t cut it for me.

          • I just find BF boring and only really fun for competitive players that want to test their perfectly bred Pokemon. Battling so many trainers for only a badge with no real value doesn’t sound like a good time…..but that’s just me I guess

          • I just think it’s better than battling competitively where everyone uses the same team. If they can spice it up or find a better alternative with at least as many styles of battle, I’m all for it.

          • Also I enjoyed that it allowed you to train your own mons. It was a good spot to get your team up to the higher levels. All that and it was still a decent challenge

          • Yeah that’s part of why I thought B2W2 had such a great post game, it had a lot of different things to do. Pokestar studios, PWT, musicals, battle subway, white tree hollow and black tower. That’s basically a whole battle frontier in one game.

          • Catching the Regis (which requires some detetective skills before the internet). The Kyogre/Groudon roaming was nice too. The rematch system was great. You had contests which I liked more than what came after it. And don’t forget building hideouts.

          • No it wasn’t, when you reached the cave everything was in braille, but the manual came with a braille alphabet so you knew what to do. I found out everything myself.

          • Yes, but that’s what made it awesome lol. You had this weird stuff in the manual, but eventually you found out what it was needed for.

          • I like the idea of the BF, but the fact that it’s so droning and reliant on you battling so many npcs in a row is dumb. Yeah sure it’s a challenge, but at the same time if it’s not fun then what’s the point? Yeah sure I could battle 70 people with almost no reward at the end or I could do something else that feels more tangible.

  5. Sometimes Pokemon makes cool choices….
    Other times Lycanroc dusk has a LITERAL FOUR POINT STAT DIFFERENCE FROM MIDDAY. ALL THAT HAPPENS IS HAVING 2 POINTS OF SPEED MOVED TO ATTACK! WOW DUDE GREAT CHANGE

  8. Okay, I’m sure its been asked a million times, but are we able to “land” and save before interacting with legends in the ultra wormholes?

  12. I still didn’t know how Photon Geyser work …..foe example if I use Draco metro while I am special attacker does that mean the next Photon Geyser will be physical one??

    • “I first worked on Pokémon Black and Pokémon White as a game designer. I worked on the UI, battle system, and the Pokémon Musical feature. I was a complete beginner and wasn’t knowledgeable about game development, but I was lucky to be able to work on so many different aspects of the game.”

      Lol, how did they ever hire a guy like that?

      Reply

  16. “At first, we were planning to just have some of the bosses from previous games appear in the Battle Agency, but these characters have so much personality, and our story writer felt like he could come up with a story featuring them that could be possible only in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon. That’s how the post-game Team Rainbow Rocket scenario got its start.” lmao so they were just gonna throw the bosses into the battle agency.

  17. Reminder, if you are posting spoilers please make it clear what they contain with a general overview such as ‘Pokemon Spoilers’, ‘Story Spoilers’, ‘Character Spoilers’ etc. I keep seeing people complain about seeing certain spoilers they hadn’t wanted to. It is a spoiler article so if you want none at all you probably aren’t here until you’ve played the games.

  18. Hold on, were the games just datamined or were the .cia files leaked as well? As in, have people actually played the game, or just seen the files?

    Reply

  19. Sounds like TPC is rolling out codes for the Hat Pikachus again. The first run where they only let you have one was prolly just them tying to make things special for the run up to the movie (which was dumb to begin with. Now it seems you can use the code PIKACHUM20 to get Original Hat Pika even if you’ve gotten a hat pika before. I assume they’ll either release other codes for the other versions or you can use the same code to get them all just in their own time periods. Either way I’d imagine we’ll be able to get them all without having to find loopholes

  20. So USUM apparently has a sign saying “The gym project has begun” or something like that.

    If that’s true, then sincerely, from the bottom of my heart….

    F*ck you game freak

  21. I just remembered something– we still have information coming tomorrow. With what little the leaks had to show, what could they possibly reveal that wouldn’t spoil everything for those just following the news?

    Reply

    • I bet they show Light Necrozma (using that term instead of the real name lol). They showed us Mega Rayquaza before ORAS came out so why not ruin the ending of these games too? I mean not that the general stuff isn’t already spoiled……but honestly that’s all our faults hahaha

  23. Has anyone ever ordered an amiibo online and picked up in store at Best Buy? I ordered Revali online for tomorrow and they ask for ID, Credit Card and Order Number, but as I’m only 14 I don’t have An ID, and I used PayPal, so I only have an order number, will they give me my amiibo? It’s paid off and everything

    Reply

    • I assume the order number and some sort of proof it’s you will be enough. We don’t have Best Buy here but I have had this come up when ordering something and they didn’t even ask for anything but the order number when I collected. If you can also show the receipt of your order which I’d assume they e-mailed you that might help.

      Reply

      • Oh, I hoped for official art of something. I will wait to see that Z-move for the first time in game as I’m using Mimikyu (hopefully shiny).
