Is there a human on this planet that doesn’t want DK’s perfectly round ass
https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JO_Tn9d9u1A/hqdefault.jpg
If they don’t they clearly don’t understand the importance of a well maintained booty
I’m not gonna lie… I used to sing this all the time… I very very much admire whoever did DK’s singing voices and learned how to sing like him
Earthen’s cover coming soon
Not until I learn to carry notes longer, seriously it’s my only singing flaw other than lyrical mispronunciation
I will post a cover of this song if you do
The world isn’t ready for my voice….or at least until I figure out what type of singing voice type is
Probably Baritone
Thanks to you, I ended up finding this really cringe Luigi’s Mansion AMV

HOLY ANAL CORN I FORGOT HOW FIRE LUSAMINE’S THEME IS
Anal corn……well I got a couple of brain cells committed to that mental image
And I’m going to track you down and take them back with a screwdriver
Oricorio and Passimian have been the huge stars of my current run. Gumshoos and Lurantis are the ones who aren’t doing much (Moreso gumshoos), Turtonator is clutch at times, and Golisopod can be godlike at times
Mah teamu https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/10983e567d55147fe9f44d1b640cb28392ae53ed59a3fd9b75e3071f64293285.jpg
I like the names, especially King Julien and Bakugo.
Yeeee >w<
I don’t nickname my Pokemon but I’ve always wanted someone to name their Golisopod “Christopher” from a certain alien movie involving nine districts.

Oh b O i
Dance Boib is best Boib
Dance Boib is insanely good
Hollowknight is such a great beautiful experience
Then I get to a boss and I lose my sh*t because there so damn hard

Since there’s been no posting for 5 hours, I just want to say how much I love your Dawn picture! It’s seriously incredible, I may save it and use it as a phone wallpaper or something. I hope I’m not remembering someone else, but I think I remember your SilverRiolu295 days – and STILL being impressed 😛
^~^ thank youuuu so muuuuchhh
It took alot of work but I’m glad you all like it!
And yes I used to be SilverRiolu but I killed them :3
This is new… I’m blown
Oh m-y G-od, th-is is a-ma-zing!!!!!!!!!! YEYEYEYEYEYEYEYEYE
Remember this Pokémon? This Pokémon caused wars
Taken it as warning that if they’re hiding a new Pokémon’s type for months, it’s probably a new type 👀

I will never forget the days of us talking about this forever and all that behind the scenes crap in the staff chat.
“pay mi 400 and ill tell u lol”

*Grinds Teeth*
Calm down Bruxish
That’s the day those accursed fae tarnished the world
Why? Do they threaten your masculinity?
They THREATEN MY TEEEEEAAAM
-Azumarill’s absurd bulkiness and huge power always at risk for belly drum aqua jets
-Mimikyu’s free set up nearly unable to safely interrupt without a Steel type
-Togekiss’s beyond broken Paraflinching
-As of USUM Ribombee now gives them sticky web support
-and all 4 of the Tapus are a bitch to deal with especially Lele and Fini
Maybe they need to take you down notch or something
Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t gut you, skin your hide and make boots out of your remains
I was joking
*Unsheathes my favorite guttin’ knife*
http://www.ultimateknifestore.com/products/img/bl048(1).jpg
> Azumarill is an actual annoying Fairy but that’s because it’s got Belly Drum, huge attack, and priority. Any type of Pokémon would be good with that, it just so happens it got a good defensive type combo.
> Mimikyu having Disguise is what breaks it, if it was Ghost/Fairy without Disguise it’d be far less threatening.
> Togekiss was paraflinching before it was ever a Fairy. All the benefits it gets from the Fairy type are seperate from Paraflinch.
> The only Tapu that really noticeably benefit from Fairy are Lele and Fini. Lele because Fairy and Psychic have good sync, whilst Water/Fairy is amazing for Defense. Bulu and Koko either don’t run Fairy STAB and even if they had the option to they’d be using it because it’s STAB (or have shallow move pools in the case of Koko) and not because it’s Fairy.
The Tapu are so good because of Terrains.
Forgot Ribombee
It’s a fast Pokémon that can guarantee Sticky Web. That’s the reason Galvantula is somewhat popular.
Araquanid runs sticky in OU so ribombee isn’t the most run…..
What you forgot to mention was Magearna which is literally the second best mon in OU behind Lando and the fact that Florges got fuckin defog
Wait, do they really hide Sylveon’s type for months? Is that a hyperbole or some kind of torture that GF likes to pull for some reason?
Sylveon was revealed in February
Fairy-type was revealed in June
Xerneas being a Fairy type was kept a secret for even longer
It almost feels like they were supposed to reveal the fairy typing earlier but forgot, like seriously this is a darn long time imo
Fairy was revealed at a perfect time because it was at E3 and was thus super hype, whilst they revealed Sylveon because it was in a film short
It was the fans that made it unbearable, not GameFreak imo
Yes, I remember that. The most plausible type for Sylveon was Flying before knowing there was Fairy type. People were convinced it is Flying, because it has “sylph” in its name, it has ribbons like kite.
That or Normal was my guess if it wasn’t new, I was leaning towards new or Normal though.

Remember her, My Nihilego Girl?
Well, a member on one of my discord groups did some fanart for no particular reason…

Hope you like
I’m not falling for that cute facade, the minute you get close she’s assimilate you
Hey, she is a rock type, deer~
No, just no.
Why the heel is she so busty? Lol
I draw my characters kinda busty, deer…
Sorry if it offends, it’s just a style.
Not offended at all. Just wondering haha
FINALLY MY EAR POPPED OMFG IT WAS CLOOGED UP FOR OVER A WEEK

Frack off I’ve been dealing with winter allergies and nobody likes being sick
I just don’t think we needed to hear the details, hope you feel better.

*insert Kamen Rider Ghost joke here*
Happy New Year
btw. who else is playing Xenoblade Chronicles 2?
I am loving it so much I hope next Pokemon looks like it in terms of wild Pokemon and vast beautiful worlds to explore
I really hope so too. The artstyle of XC2 looks gorgeous and if I pick up a Switch at some point, it’s going to be one of the first games I pick up.
I’d really like it if Pokémon was paced like Xenoblade X where you can explore a lot before triggering a chapter at your own pace, or a slice of life style game set in the Pokémon world
40 hours in, only at chapter 5. Still a long road before me.
20h and still on chapter 3. this game is huge
So after winning a lot with Zelda in smash, I have a question relating to Pokemon.
What is an underrated Pokemon, and why do you think it’s good?
Personally, I think Staraptor is pretty underrated. It’s so powerful I think people need to use it more. A more underrated is Granbull. With Intimidate and a base 120 Atk Play Rough is too strong. I gladly use it in OU.
Just wanted to say I freaking love staraptor! Easily my favorite regional bird! And honestly I would say almost any grass starter is under rated. Bulbasaur and turtwig come to mind! Both really good Pokémon (IMO) with awesome evolutions but they are overshadowed by the water and fire starters
Why do I always pick the harder SOSs
42 minuets and no Bagon
but it has the same call rate as buneary lol
… I don’t know if that’s good or bad
its a good
You get the bonus of massively underleveled Salamence too.
Imagine if you got a Shiny Salamence
At level 9, that would be a great trophy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSYYWUXK4TA
That was annoying to listen to. But lucky find, I’m almost motivated to try myself, though last time I tried to SOS Bagon it took so long just to get a Salamence to appear.
I STILL haven’t found a Bagon……and i wasted so much time……might as well dig out that Exeggecute
You want the one I bred for you now?
Sure…….is it male? and maybe nickname it Lono
I bred a dozen, so some are Male, I’ll nickname the best IV one. Do you have any Beast Ball or Apricorn Pokemon to trade? If you don’t I guess you can just have it.
no no Earthen always makes a fair trade, Fast Ball Rockruff, Lure Ball Gible, Heavy Ball Riolu, Love Ball Snorunt/Eevee
but with any these i reserve the right to always obtain a seed breedject of anything in case the desire arose
Can you just do a breedject of Snorunt? I have all these anyway so I’m not too fussed. I’m mostly looking for things only obtainable in USUM but Snorunt would do.
oh easy when would i EVER use a Froslass
Tis Japanese, Impish and Moody with Disable and Hex
OK, I have named your egg seeds FC: 0748 – 2744 – 4660 IGN: James
i tink we got each other
I might not, I trade alot and have to randomly delete FCs from time to time.
frack i need to update first, give me a sec
Just let me know when ready, I’ll be in the plaza.
it’s IAN
I know that, I don’t have your FC.
SOB! 4038-5998-9262 IAN
You have alot of shinys of things you claim to hate.
WT
Hm still, anyway hope the Exeggcute helps.
Well at least now i don’t have to worry about PP usage
if i’m correct
Skill Swap
Sleep Powder
Bestow
Giga Drain
need to buff it to 45-50 to get it survivable
Yeah you can evolve it too, I think both keep Harvest but Kanto might be better for this one at least.
well i already have a Alolan Exeggutor doing a specific job
Kaluko is my Frisker thief so i get Lono should be Kantonian

Seinfeld anime confirmed?

That was outstanding hahahahaha
Question I thought of last night. Do people actually think we are getting the switch Pokémon game this year. Or in 2019? It it comes in 2019 would anyone be against a new muster dungeon game on 3ds and Nintendo switch similar to the first mystery dungeon being on gba and nds? Honestly idk when the game will come out but if it’s this year the latest we will get a trailer is e3. If it doesn’t happen there it’s definitely a 2019 release. We shall see I suppose.
I don’t think we’re getting anything else on 3DS for Pokemon. It really depends how long they’ve been working on the Switch game.
You might be right. We shall see I suppose. That said I would gladly take a new mystery dungeon eventually
In all honesty I can see it coming out early 2019. They’d start promotion this year, but obviously it technically wouldn’t be out until next. Early as it be tho
I can agree there if it doesn’t come until next year I think it would come out next summer at the latest!
Yeah definitely. I just can’t see them stretching out the SM/USUM content as far as a whole 2 years. There’s just not enough for them to do that. Especially since they’ve already burned through 2 out of 3 mythicals.
3 hours……3 hours wasted, i even tried to go after Hawlucha again and on;y got a few calls…..until it struggled after 110 turns
and Monkey Butt i do have your FC if my goldfish memory recalls you gave me my Snowshrew or something
Heyyyy look what I found (shin crabrawler) it was a first encounter too. Hopefully this luck stays with me on the battle tree :/
No pic…..
It wont load Sorry.
calling bullshit use imgur

Honestly, I wouldnt care, buuut since I was annoyed withit anyway I cant let it win. Here you go
Alright….Mine is better Iron Fist and Brave in a Lure Ball my first Alola SOS Shiny
Oh its a competition now?
I guess I should mention How I found Bagon first time in US and it was Adamant. Also I have two shiny salamences. One is in a Safari Ball which isnt in Gen 7 sooooo whatever you get Mines always gonna be better. (Also I won a tournament with a Crabominable, do that with your shiny).
i’ll give you the Safari Ball Bagon
I’ve caught 2 shiny Sandslash in 2 separate Safari Zones before which was both amusing and a tad annoying. If I breed Shiny Baglegon I’ll probably do it in Safari or Friend Ball.
i has a Shiny Sandslash, but out of all my shinies the only ones that mean anything to me are
My Shiny Chesnaught which was my very first Shiny from a egg (without charm)
and my very first Shiny a Marowak from Firered’s Victory Road
I hate that I don’t remember my first shiny. It might just have been the Lake Of Rage Gyarados but that doesn’t really count.
I made sure i remembered and brought this Shiny with me through the ages, i mean the sheer power of finding a wild shiny in FireRed is absurd
and the fact its a ground type makes it all the more aspecial….sadly the lime green isn’t very attractive
Eh I like the colour. It could be better though.
How about I found around 11-18 shinies in a span of 24 hours
that luck will run out sooner or later
Yea the 24 hours ended. But my luck will never leave!
that’s why i continue to will you would get hit by a bus or get your organs harvested
If you do remember. Everytime you typed something I found a shiny… so I think youre my luck
I don’t and that’s totally bull, maybe you just steal my luck from me at every opportunity
you dick…
Ok my shiny charm :3
I hate you….
I wasn’t bragging, just sharing an experience.
Oh lol sorry thought you were apart of it. Thats pretty awesome!
It was quite a while apart, too. I was so worried they’d flee.
A German streamer had a shiny charm and went around 9 times over odds
Anything is possible
It’s ok I still love you
Nice, I like Shiny Crabrawler.
=_=
Is it confirmed we’re getting a Direct on the 11th?
only if you spill the blood of 11 innocent lives
NOTHING IS CONFIRMED STOP WITH ALL THESE FAKE LEAKS AND DATES ARRGGHHBQNDIOQZEFQZHUI
Chill Dae, he knows not of what he speaks
You alright there Dae?
It’s been a rough Dae
I know how you feel (This is probably a joke, but whatever)
but its been proven by many people
Hasn’t been confirmed, but it seems likely
So today i violently vomited, went home, and slept for a few hours
Nice and productive
The life of the common man
…..welp i wanted to find a shiny….just not yet another Audino….
How many is that now?
4 I think
Do you keep them or trade them away?
Nobody cares about them
I thought you might WT them.
I always am available for Shinies:)
Golisopod is pretty great in playthroughs once it evolves TBH
Passimian is also stupidly good
Oricorio is super underrated
Lurantis is a tad situational but it’s fairly strong
Gumshoos flat out is terrible
And turtonator honestly varies
Golisogod! i’m annoyed that Passimian doesn’t SOS its own kind you’d think it would have an army of Apes at its beck and call
Golisopod isn’t as good as Araquanid (literally nothing in Alola remotely comes close ingame for me) but first impression is extremely useful.
Passimian is just godlike… like I imagined it would power drop but it’s still going strong on poni
true Golisopod does have a very limited move pool, i had to wait for Leech Life
one of these days i need to use a Passimian
It hits extremely hard early
Yeah I loved using Golisopod.
I really just want Passimians HA to be available.
I would use Oricorio but I only like 2 of its’ forms and I keep having those types on my teams already.
Lurantis is pretty great with Contrary Leaf Storm, I do want to see if physical with Superpower is good though.
Gumshoos, well we all knew that.
I still might try Turtonator at some point, not sure how you run it though.
Lurantis literally needs contrary
I mean Masquerain and minun were better than Gumshoos
Turt is weird
Minun is pretty good for a Pikaclone. At least Masquerain has Intimidate.
True
Well, considering what Gumshoos looks like…
Yeah, it fits
What’s your Luran set?
It’s the totem one
Leaf Blade
Brick Break
Leech Life
Synthesis
I want poison jab but have no idea where it is
> Not even using Swords Dance
Ew
Turtonator! Finally recognized by somebody as it can be good at times
It’s definetly nowhere near as good as a lot of other mons but it’s not terrible.. I guess
Has anyone seen the rumor that we’re supposed to be getting a Nintendo Direct next week and that GF trademarked “Pokemon 1” and “Pokemon 0”
I see “Direct next week” I stop reading the comment
hmmm why?
we are getting one next week
Yeah we had those rumours yesterday I think, with fake looking logos.
Really? I haven’t seen the logos but no harm in asking. TBH if the leaks from the other day are true about the games being innovation vs tradition then 1 and 0 make sense since those are the numbers used for binary code but im hoping they don’t make 2 games moving forward
Yeah it’s gonna be too costly going forward.
Fakity fake fake
As people have said below the 1 and 0 trademarks are fake. An actual look up shows they don’t really exist. As for the direct next week it’s still up in the air. It’s likely, but obviously hasn’t been officially announced
Can somebody please shoot me…
First I lost my credit card
Then I found out my dog’s were left out in the cold for god knows how long
My lazy brother is just getting up
And I lost my the stupid bundle of eShop cards (my scatterbrained aunt got 5 10$ cards which is easy to lose)
That’s not good 🙁
Poor little puppies are they ok now?
The doggos nuuuu
https://lisvender.files.wordpress.com/2015/12/toon-bullet.gif
You need a wallet on a chain or something.
Are the dogs OK?
Oh Seraph remember my fakemon Digasaur’s ability Construction well I finally made its effect
When a Pokémon with this ability comes out on the field all field effects (Stealth Rock, Electric Terrain, Leech Seed, ect.) are erased.
Ooooh, might want a different name but it’s good
I actually made it with 2 more abilities today
Wouldn’t it make more sense to be called Demolition?
Probably it was more a base name till a better one was made
Why is like… every dark type in Unova awesome?
Why is there only 2 three stage Dark type lines and both are from Unova
It also applies to bug
But I question how they fucked up so bad with water
ikr. the only good water types are Swanna and Dewott
The water types in gen 5 really are horrible
Because every pkm is :3
Except for Vullaby
Still it becomes Mandibuzz so it gets a pass
