I almost lost, but luckily Armaldo was still alive
Folks who remember my least favorites list, well THIS IS WHY I HATE GOURGEIST!!!!!!!!

Coming back right in for a win! Toxic Spike venoshock teams in this kinda suck

Reeeee
Can anyone check for me to see if Pokejungle is loading on chrome mobile for them? I keep getting an error page when I try on chrome on my phone, but when I try Safari on there it works. It also works just fine on regular chrome on the PC
sure because I’m showdowning i was on my computer so I’ll check my phone for ya
Thanks friend
It worked fine for me. Maybe your putting your password in wrong?
Hmmmmmm no I mean like the site isn’t loading at all. Idk. Maybe it’s just me. It was working before and it’s never given me a problem either. Maybe it’s just a fluke and given time will resolve itself
Yeah I’ve had similar problems before, phone’s are usually making it not fun to be here. My phone loves to glitch it up
I’ve had that problem too!!!!
Butter I want the tweet which makes be gen 8
Want to know what, its not my worst game yet
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7pu-670605823
Welp, I landed. My team as of now
Bewear the Drunk Ubear
Varazzless the Salazzle
Punk the Glaceon
Astolfo the Primarina
and…
who I felt was perfect for the Net Ball that I used to capture her (and giving the name Bugsy) I present you
Bugsy the Vibrava!!!
All of them are currently level 39. I am currently at Ula’Ula meadow. I was quite suprised by how difficult Plumeria was during our second encounter. Even though my Pokémon and her were the same level (5 Pokémon vs. 2 Pokémon). She ended up taking down every Pokémon I had on my team except for Astolfo whose health went down into the red. I know, I am reiterating a trite phrase, but these games are definitely more difficult than what I had expected.
So, I’m trying to get this all straight—– what rumors are circling about gen 8 starters? What proof is there?
rumors? where can i see them?
From what I heard, the only credibility this person has backing them up is the fact that they had info back in the 6th gen. (X&Y).
Well it’s hard to say if it’s a “rumor” or not. Really all we have is that a former “in the know” person posted three animals (tanuki, goat, and wolf) and said they look like a good group of animals. Supposedly he also hinted he may know some gen 8 stuff, but I haven’t found anything like that specifically. He did however today give a prediction for what’s to come so we shall see if any of this comes true
Horray second story done and its all around my new team mate!

Loading problem on mobile is fixed. Sounds like it’s a corrupt cookie. So all I had to do is clear my cookies and wham I’m back in action.
Also some of these people need to calm the f*ck Down about Detective Pikachu
https://kotaku.com/danny-devito-fans-react-to-detective-pikachu-announceme-1821075250/amp
W h y p e o p l e w a n t d e v i t o a s p i k a c h u i n t h e f i r s t p l a c e
It’s because the Japanese VA for the game is a deep raspy voice. Seems like the logical step to have Devito haha
Or maybe because Devito is the trashman and Pikachu is trash ?
He is a good actor, but I’m fine as long as its a good movie
They want to destroy Net neutrality? No stop the dumba$$es boycotting and starting gofundme pages over a damn movie just because the actor they wanted isn’t gonna be in it…
Idk how you managed to sneak net neutrality in this argument but yeah, this actor is good enough for this role and getting Danny Devito as Pikachu is kinda unlikely to me anyways lol
Because he’s short and fat, like Pikachu
He’s the right size for the suit.
Supposedly we’re expected to get the first teaser trailer for the new movie on Monday. We shall see
Zerora will be secret no more
Maybe. Tho they could just tease it and then save the full reveal for later. If that happens then we may not get gen 8 next year after all. They’d probably want to space Zeraora’s reveal out with a special gen 8 reveal as much as they can. Similar to how they left a couple months between Volcanion and Magearna
my idea is that Zerazora is the Alola region’s “Champion” a wandering warrior who proved his worth to the Tapus and anointed him
But over the years he became reckless, arrogant and cocky which led to his banishment or “sucked into ultra space”
I still think it will be hunting an Ultra Beast
Guzzlord is my best bet
maybe i just see him as a edgelord who wants to fight
maybe i just see him as a edgelord who wants to fight
maybe i just see him as a edgelord who wants to fight
I hope it’s not Pokemon: I Choose You 2!
The new Pkm movie? That’s kinda soon but idk I’m hyped :0
How is it too soon? The volcanion movie was announced in December as well. All of the movies are announced in December in fact. So it’s pretty par for the course
Oh really. I mean this movie was released this year so I find it kinda weird to release a trailer of the sequel on this same year but if that’s how they roll then oh well
Sequel? What sequel? You mean to the I choose Pikachu movie? There’s a movie every year so they have to announce them at some point. This movie will be about something completely different than I choose you. Just like all the movies are their own stories.
Here are some movie name ideas for it:
Pokemon: Strike of Zerorora
Pokémon: Shades of Necrozma
Pokémon: Wrath of Lunala
Pokémon: Vengeance of Solgaleo

My Dragonite is a testament to how strong me and my USUM team are. It’s single handedly took on a Totem Kommo-o and Noivern all by itself! ?
That’s cool! My Lycanroc just evolved
Thanks my dude :]
Congratz! You’ll find Lycanroc to be a great asset to your team it’s really strong!
Thanks!
Marvel Scale?
Yup 🙂
You know me well!
so you cheated
My Kommo-o had Bulletproof but THE MIGHTY DRACO METEOR!!!!!!!
Yup 🙂
You know me well!
Yeah 🙂
You know me well!

Earthen? Seraph?
*Retching*
give me a minute https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KjxawLJ7xI
Helppp!
Do we catch Necrozma on first encounter or kill it???
What do you mean, first encounter? As fused with the box legendary, Ultra Necrozma, or at the Pokémon League?
Its okay I killed it and it wasn’t ultra, the regular form fused with Solgaleo
Great now my disqus is down and out for the count!
It used to be but now it’s not.
F uccc the Necrozma battle is awesome and the twist to the plot has me glued this is amazing love it
What form is it?
The Solgaleo form not even ultra yet can’t wait 2 see how that rolls :]
fortune cookie time!
“Your destiny lies before you, choose wisely”
Hmmmmmm so my destiny is fortune cookies?
*Five minutes later me imprisoned at a fortune cookie factory*
*Me tied up and being whipped by a taskmaster*
“You work nowugh!”
Also Necrozma is savage that thing is ruthless

Lol, gotta love disqus and these rep comments
Lol and now this happens to me I’m dead
Lol, gotta love disqus and these rep comments
the stupid maintenance thingy did that
No worries the same happened to me, I ended up posting 4 comments of the same.
No Danny Devito for Detective Pikachu, Danny Devito for Smash Switch.
Yes!
http://www.nintendon.it/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/danny-de-vito-pikachu-nintendon.jpg
If i ever woke up looking like this…i would…GET ALL DA BITCHES!!!!
Oh and your a good competitive player right?
Not really, I try.
woo yoo main?
In smash? Bowser, Link, Greninja, Zero Suit Samus mostly
unsurprisingly i main villains
Wario
Dedede
Bowser
DK
Ganondorf
Oh I also use DK and Kirby alot. While I like Ganons’ power I find his movements too sluggish.
I’m just naturally attuned to heavyweights but that is also my biggest weakness
When I played I maimed Pikachu, Kirby, Yoshi, Iggy and wait for it… Pac-man (I literally was a god with pac-man)
And my reason why I used him… I liked his ovenmit skin
my associate William is getting annoying with Pac-Man lately, but he’s the type who’ll pull off the same sequence of moves and becomes easy to read and predict, its better then last time where he did nothing but edge guard and camp during 4 man brawls
I primarily use the side B and trampoline to win
My friends all hated me for how I would abuse Pac-Man against their mains
i would hate dealing with that, but this….”group” i run we used to do full fledged 8 man brawls all with human players
Jeebus H Crust those where a hassle,
I know you didn’t ask me, but:
Mario
Lucario
Cloud
Roy
Pac-Man
eww Cloud
I don’t use Cloud as much anymore, I also use Ryu
You use Cloud.
Ooo lemme butt in on this convo. I mained:
-Bowser Jr. (Iggy skin) Seriously best character in the game. So versatile with his/her attacks
-Villager, ’twas fun trolling people with the Gyroid rockets haha. I could never get a hang of the planting tree or pitfall seeds though..
-Wii Fit Trainer, no one ever expects this one. But they’re fast with high jump and ranged attacks.
-Zero Suit Samus (Freaking AMAZING with that jump and paralysis bolt)
-Jigglypuff when I didn’t give a sh*t about the match lol. I came out on top quite a few times with Jiggles though!
-Yoshi sometimes as well. The poor guy doesn’t do much damage though, but he can last a while in the match.
I prefer Bower Jr’s Roy skin
I like Roy a lot too. Just love Iggy’s crazy eyes and grass hair lol
I was going to ask how you think I did in this match
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7pu-670581850
It’s a PU team I built
Pretty good, though you took heavy damage from spikes, might want a rapid spin/defog user, maybe a taunter.
Yeah after I got hit by that I realized I forgot a Defogger
I probably will move to Tropius to take over Shiinotic
You could also use Silvally. It’s the best defogger in PU tbh
I but who to kill off for it
And the reason Arbok is there is I found a strategy guide on Instagram saying how to build a competitive one
You didn’t ask me, but Bayonrtta and PAC-Man
Well just picked up this from GameStop! Feels a lot nicer than the regular controller! Can’t wait to try it with all my games! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9781951458b6bfe36a7575529c75e7fbfb610758d0d45da2a9401923463db99d.jpg
OH THANK GOD, My Pokebank thing gave me an error when trying to load US and i was like OH NO
my heart was racing so hard i could feel the veins in my head pulse
ok it’s gonna take planning, time and a whole lotta GTS but i think i can make a living dex, but man oh man it’s gonna be a process
Can someone tell me why the prominent members of the ultra recon squad are different depending on your version of the game? Gamefreak at it again with the, “Look at this! We’re playing this off as actual content!”
Phyco’s glorious mustache
If Ultra Sun is anything to go off of, they’re probably sh*t characters in UM too. Something’s up with his thighs though.
Then pop at some random time soooo much ‘meaningless’ dialogue that the player wonders whats their point. If anything after the opening scene you think they are bad. So every time you see them you think they are bad.
They definitely should have been in Battle Tree and only use UB’s I feel like that would be super cool
They don’t even seem to be champion challengers either despite them emphasizing enjoying battling and saying they’re going to stick around and take on the trials. GF made such a hollow game. You know you f*cked up when I prefer the story of SM over USUM. I really liked the emotional bond between Lillie and Nebby but that was totally thrown to sh*t at the climax and during the resolution.
Ok I couldnt tell if it was just me! But the bond between Lillie and Nebby felt a lot weaker in this game. Idk if I just got so old of it, or they were actually missing dialogue, but it did seem very small.
No like it was actually kind of sad in SM! I mean, (I guess?) Lillie gets to keep Nebby in this one, but it’s not like she gets to ride it through ultra wormholes or use it in battle. It’s just a glorified pet now that they changed the story.
Yea it begs the question why does she give it to us. She becomes a trainer, doesnt she? She should become the new Tobias and just use a legend throughout the whole Island challenge.
Yeah USUM’s plot was a trainwreck…not X&Y trainwreck levels, but somehow worse than the original. It bothers me they changed Lusamine so much. Mainly because she’s literally the only character in the entire game that gets a personality flip. Why not play up the alternate universe thing you hyped and play it up more? Take more risks and change more characters. Make it more memorable.
Because this game was supposed to be a single game but at some point they decided to split them
I am 99% sure this is the case
I bet you’re right. While still being bad as remakes, they would be stronger and easier to swallow if they focused all of their attention on making ONE game rather than a bunch of stupid and unnecessary changes for two versions to “justify” that price hike.
But then how would both Fusions work? Or would they just not exist?
The fusions either:
-Shouldn’t exist unless the games were sequels and justified the two versions. Honestly the fusion part was so unnecessary to the plot that they don’t even deserve to be on the cover. The plot needed to be entirely reworked. Necrozma entered way too late in game and was only fused in the grand scheme of things for like 2 minutes. It’s a similar situation with B2W2 where the fusions don’t last for long in the plot, but at least there the game leads up to the fusions. We learn about the DNA splicers and how Kyurem and Reshi/Zek used to have different forms. The fusions in the this game come out of nowhere and have no bearing on the story. We still would’ve chased Necrozma through the wormhole even if they hadn’t fused because we promised the Ultra Recon Squad we’d save their world from having no light.
-Maybe changed depending on choices you made during the game. Or maybe in the beginning tutorial you get to choose whether you begin in night or day, which determines it.
I’m leaning toward option 1 because their designs are also just bad and unappealing.
The second option is literally what I had in my game
Stars was just the code name for a tech demo of a Switch port for SuMo
thats not what im talking about
