  1. This reeks of the mythical distribution from 2016. I believe they did that distribution as a way to give players a way to finish their collections of mythicals in the run up to SM. That way people could have the chance to have a complete collection up to SM and wouldn’t still have gaps. I believe this is their way of filling version exclusives for people in the run up to gen 8. The Switch game may come out next year, but I believe that’s the reason for doing this. Also without forcing the timeline it is a little weird they didn’t put something in December. We shall see tho so enough said about that. I do wonder why they wouldn’t throw in a shiny gen 7 legend or something. Not sure that makes sense unless they have something else to promote that month. Also for the record no Zeraora won’t be part of this event. These are version exclusive legends and Zeraora is an event only mon. It’ll likely get its own announcement next month to coincide with more info on the movie (which I believe it’ll be in) since February usually shows off the movie guests.

  2. Off-topic: Dragon Ball Super goes on hiatus after the current saga end and there is no return date announced either. I’m actually depressed by this, what if it doesnt come back until 2019 🙁

    • From what I hear ti may be done entirely. No one really knows yet. It’d be sad if it is done tho. I’m watching the English dub exclusively so I’m still a ways off from getting to the Tournament of Power. Hopefully it does have a conclusive ending tho. I’m really interested to see how it fits with the original ending of the manga. I imagine ti’ll have to retcon the entire last chapter into something else as there’s no way they’d all be out of touch at this point and Goku and Vegeta would be weaker than a god hahaha

      • A Fuji TV spokesman said that DB wont end, but at this point future plans are not set in stone. So it will come back, but no one knows when. Might be in 4 months, 2019 or 2022 lol.

        Reply
          • Agreed. I mean a hiatus is fine, gives them the time to come up with new sagas and characters but just stopping it all just like that is very strange. I cant imagine DB to end, its a huge franchise especially in Japan.

          • I hope they change the ending of the entire manga tbh. I didn’t really like the weird 10 years later scenario where they all take part in the world tournament just so Goku could abandon his family and friends to train Uub. Did feel like ti meshed well with the rest of the series,

          • Pretty sure that Toriyama mentioned in passing that GT isnt canon anymore so there would be a new ending, should it ever come to that.

          • I’m not even talking about GT tho. The last 2 chapters of the actual manga had that part. GT was garbage, but those last chapters were their starting point for it. The last 2 chapter featured Goku and everyone joining the world tournament because Goku wanted to meet Uub. I don’t like that at all. That said I think they’ll need to change that entirely as Pan is still a little toddler in that version even tho it’s 10 years in the future. So since Pan is already born that alone would change that part.

        • Yeah, but there’s always going to be DB content out there. They’ll prolly never stop making movies. The problem is that DBS is so good that it’ll be sad to see them end it prematurely. Would be nice if they could at least get one more arc after the Tournament of Power. I feel like they can’t end it after that without it feeling like something went wrong.

  3. Damn can you enter Dragonspiral tower before battling Brycen?

    Because I wanted to get on Route 9 before Brycen so I could catch my final team members Pawniard, but two Grunts are in the way and probably won’t move till I get through the tower

  4. Ugh should I keep Charge beam on my Klang or Discharge? On one hand Charge beam helps out with raising its special attack, but is relatively weak (especially given that the line ins’t electric type) On the other hand Discharge is decently strong, but hurts all other things on the field so it’s a waste in double battles unless I’m willing to damage my own mon…….I just don’t know

  8. So because in December we aren’t getting one this might mean that:

    1- Poke Switch is releasing that month

    2- We may get something special, like a surprise or something.

    3- Absolutely nothing lol

    • It’s certainly something, I find it a tad weird they didn’t include the legends from gen 7 tho

      Personally, I feel a huge ass announcement will come within like a month tops

      Reply
      • Prolly by the end of next month. regardless of when the game comes out February is usually when they reveal guest stars of the new movies. If Zeraora is in the movie like we expect that’ll be when they show it off.

  9. Well just checked my bank account and it appears my wweshop order may have been cancelled…. again. This happened last year too when I tried to order a conners cure bracelet. Ironically I ordered it on a holiday too so maybe that’s the issue. Guess I will call their customer service later to check and see what’s going on

  10. A fun little thing! Team reviews! Of meh Pokemon White team
    LETS GO LETS GO

    (DwayneXD) Crustle- 9.5/10! This mon was actually really really good! It got two strong moves literally a few levels after I caught it and it was easy to level up! It was always good in nearly every situation and sturdy came in clutch more times than I can count. My only issue with this mon was how damn slow it was…..

    (Nani Sore) Sigilyph- 9.5/10! This mon was again really good! Strong from the moment you get it, hits like a truck, levels up fast, and has access to fucking magic guard so it can soak status conditions. It also has some surprising coverage which only boosts its utility. If you find a life orb, this mon is scary.

    (Aurelia) Cryogonal- 8.5/10! Very fast and shockingly strong! It also can eat literally any special attack thrown at it! The biggest issue is its abysmal defense stat. It literally can drop to quick attack from wild mons.

    (Walter) Stunfisk- 6.5/10. This mon is honestly okay. It’s really bulky and gets a shitton of coverage. The biggest issue is that it doesn’t hit too hard and a lot of its moves don’t come in till much later.

    (Rabuta berry) Basculin 4.5/10- Honestly I feel like not having adaptability soured my reputation of this mon because i KNOW it hits a lot harder with it. Without it, the thing is literally a frail water nuke with crunch. It’s…. not that good but it ain’t bad for sure

    (Eliza) Cofagrigus- 2.0/10- This mon is fucking horrible. It looks bulky but it dies to strong hits. It can’t hit very hard. It REQUIRES the hex combo to do much of anything before it evolves. It doesn’t evolve to level 34 where it’s terrible until it does evolve. When it does, it doesn’t even get that much better outside of having more bulk. The worst part is that it’s SO SLOW
    Like it gets outsped by conkeldurrs
    It’s bad, terrible actually

    • This really makes me thankful Pokemans aren’t real. Like.. wtf would my Togetic be doing all that time.. in day care? I can’t afford that!!

      Reply
          • Absolutely Not. And my Togetic has Beaten Every Togekiss it has Ever faced…
            They have different uses
            And Togetic fits my playing style best.
            Togekiss is more offensive.
            Togetic more a mix.
            It’s actually one of the few Pokemon that can rock an Eviolite properly.
            Due to it initially being the final Evo of the line.
            It was even pretty high on the Smogon chart last games.
            I Lovve it. Never dead weight.
            Pffffft off!

          • You realize togetic is considered shitt by like 90% of the smogon community right? Literally just get anything bulky and hit taunt and togetic becomes useless

          • I really don’t gaf about the Smogon community. I’m just saying I saw during XY it was like UU viable.
            And the same can be said about Any Pokemon. Just bring in so and so that counters it and that Pokemon loses. Of course.
            That’s why we have 5 other Pokemon to choose from.
            Plus only a poor trainer would keep Togetic or any Pokemon in on a poke that counters it.
            I’d switch out or use thunder wave first if I saw fit
            HowBowDat!?

          • I mean like Togetic is downright shitt right now
            Everything it does, another mon does so so much better
            In fact it’s pretty bad at what it does too considering how much can literally dick it

          • Idc what you think….
            It’s worked consistently for me..
            The way I play it…
            And when that fails..
            I know what to use.
            Pffft off now.
            You’re being annoying and argumentive when I had no intention to debate
            Pfft off!

          • You are no joke the most annoying person on the site, you’re the last person who should call anyone annoying

          • Once again.. I give 0 f*cks how you feel.
            That’s is your Personal Opinion.
            And saying”No joke” doesn’t validate it.
            Child tactics
            I clealry don’t like you.
            So I don’t value what you have to say.
            Or your little clique.
            Especially something so uncalled for.
            You need to learn to respect personal boundaries. And your need to start an argument over a children’s game and how someone feels about a character within it says volumes about your maturity.
            And Yea I will be flagging you for that post.
            If someone is Not coming for you then you Don’t come for them..
            Now Pfft the F off!
            Because regardless.. You are being the annoying one

  14. So my source seems to think not only Zeraora will be in the movie (which is kind of like duh at this point) but also something new that will set the stage for the new game. I wonder what that means. Maybe we’ll get a double reveal of new Pokemon (I’m not 100% on that one tho) or maybe we’ll have a new form change or mechanic shown in the new movie. It could be similar to how the Genesect movie went. Where we have the final Pokemon of the gen show cased like how Genesect was in the last gen 5 movie (in this case Zeraora) and then a new mechanic like how Mega evolution was shown. I could honestly see that. It would explain why Zeraora wasn’t revealed in December. If the “new” thing in the movie to promote what’s coming next is a mechanic then they don’t need to show off Zeraora super early to make room for anything. If this is the case I could see a tease of the new mechanic in April or May and then a full reveal at e3 or in August. Sort of like how they paced stuff out in 2013 only maybe a month or so different.

    Reply
    • This is something I had thought in all honesty. Saw a lot of people saying just because Zeraora wasn’t revealed it meant no new games this year. For all we know it gets a new form or something lol

      Reply
      • Would make more sense. They don’t have to use a new Pokemon specifically to promote gen 8. Could just be a new concept rather than a new mon.

        Reply
        • Pretty much people are getting too confident of themselves. Heck they could even reveal a minor Pokémon like the deoxys movie had munchlax in it

          Reply
          • This is also true. Either way the point is we may get something brand new in the movie that doesn’t have to do with Zeraora.

          • we shall see soon I suppose. Either way I plan to leave until the games come out after I see the starters. Going to try my best to remain spoiler free like I did with diamond and pearl years ago

      • If it got a new form then they’d have to patch it in to USUM or wait until Gen 8, since it wasn’t revealed by datamining.

        Reply
          • New mechanic? Something similar to Megas I assume. Most likely though it will star alongside a new Pokémon or something similar to munchlax in the deoxys move could happen

          • They do indeed. If you think about it they’d either have to have 2 events for it in both Gens or expect people to have USUM to transfer it to Gen 8. I’m not saying it’s impossible, it just seems such a pointless thing.

          • All in all this is just speculation on my part. Personally I feel that it will star alongside some new Pokémon. I see people speculating that Lugia is in the movie. Maybe just maybe It gets some new form? Similar to mewtwo in the genesect movie. Maybe that’s why we are getting ho-oh and lugia in November? Transfer the events to gen 8 and get new forms?

          • Lugia is definitely in the next movie, I think it’s been confirmed, though as to what role it plays we have yet to see. It is more likely that they would get some new form/thing as they have existed longer and are available in USUM without the event.

          • It could work. The event is mainly to help get the version exclusive you can’t get. Maybe they are getting new forms in the next game. Would be interesting to say the least!

        • I would say whatever it has nothing to do directly with Zeraora. Again think the more in the lines of the Genesect movie.

          • Well, i know you got your rock solid attitude going, but you gotta be a little realistic sometimes, deer… There are people who know the ropes better than you, who fight harder than you, who will always win easier than you. But forget them, you need to be more confident in what you can do, it’s ok to be upset, but don’t let numbers bother you to the point of depression, after all, pokemon is only a game, you can put it down at any time~

          • KNOW THE ROPES?!!>!>!>!>!@DWSFWFS THEY JUST STALL TO DEATH HOW IS THAT KNOWING THE ROPES ITS A PATHETIC CHEAP EXCUSE FOR REAL PLAYING JUST SITTING AROUND AND WAITING FOR THE OPPONENT TO DIE OFF

            AND ALL YOUR SAYING IS I’M SECOND RATE LOUD AND CLEAR THAT I’M NO GOOD AT ALL MAKING ME FEEL LIKE THE LOWEST HEAD ON THE FREAKING TOTEM POLE THAT ALWAYS SOMEBODY WILL BE BETTER THAN ME IN EVERYTHING

          • Good Arceus deer, calm down…
            Read what you just wrote, i never EVER called you second rate, i do joke with you sometimes, but you do the same, so that’s mutual. But you got a legitimate problem here, you are pushing yourself too far…

          • I CAN’T NOTHING MAKES ME FEEL HAPPY OR CONFIDENT ABOUT MYSELF ANYMORE I DON’T EVEN FEEL PLEASURE ANYMORE FROM DOING THE THINGS I LOVE

  16. Ok this is completely theory and nothing more. Lets say the new movie does reveal a new form/mechanic and it doesn’t have anything to do with Zeraora. And lets say a new Pokemon isn’t in the new movie. So what does that leave us? What if…..now bear with me…What if Lugia gets a new form or use of a new mechanic? I mean between the rumor about us possibly revisiting Kanto in some capacity, the last two movies being about Kanto and now presumably Johto, and the last Legends being offered as events for this year being Ho-oh and Lugia…..What if we’re in for a new thing involving them in some way? even if the new game takes place in a new region they could still pull that out of their hat as a way to promote. Just something to nibble on I suppose XD

  17. Pokémon Switch announced in March, will later be skated for a December release

    Will either be soft resets, hard resets, or hard remakes – can’t see it being a ‘normal’ new Gen.

    Z-Moves will get the Mega treatment, and Megas return to the forefront

    Mark this down and I’ll see how much I get right lol

  18. How two versions could work:

    A lot of new Pokémon are added and are split evenly between versions

    Certain Pokémon are harder to encounter and all Pokémon are harder/take longer breed making GTS have a better economy

    Like DQIX, you can travel to another player’s world through an Ultra Wormhole which can let you catch Pokémon from the other version

    Different stories and characters for both versions, possibly different regions or different versions of the same regions

  19. Real talk, GF should tweak breeding so players actually can get comp mons without needing to resort to hacking. If hacking is so bad, GF should actually do shitt to make players not need to.

  20. Another good idea would be to just add egg moves to move tutors and allow more efficient editing of IVS so players can actually play competitively with mons they used in their playthroughs. Allowing players to actually play competitively with the Pokemon they’ve gotten close to would be a great thing

    Gen 7 has made so strides towards this, but there’s more that needs to happen

  22. Alright incoming rant, feel free to ignore this

    So I’m sitting there on my study hall period getting math extra help like the good lil seraphu that I am and this group of really obnoxious kids begins talking. They begin to talk like normal kids do but stuff nyooms downhill at light speed. They begin to talk about VR chat and one of them shares a video in which a streamer was playing and a person in the background began to have a seizure. Like, no joke, a full on fucking seizure. Anyways they go on to describe the video as “the funniest shitt they’ve seen” and mention that the guy who was playing attempted to help the victim and the first thing a kid replies with is “why did he bother to do that?”

    I’ll put it this way
    I’m all for making dark jokes but things like that are just flat out wrong. Like seriously
    The fact that the kid questioned why the streamer tried to help should flat out get a mental health check

    Sorry for this random rant but this shitt bothers me

    • For 160 damage it ain’t worth it

      It’s like running the riskiest glass cannon in history (As in a typical match getting 5 energy on one Pokémon is risk enough without it fainting and losing those precious cards)

      Reply
        • You need to have all the Regi’s on the bench (Which isn’t always the easiest task unless someone uses call for friends which most that have it are super frail, so I’d use Kangsahn from in the plasma days)

          5 energy (unless it’s double energies its a bad move to do because when it faints unless you have specific cards you lose all of them and that’s 25% of energy at max because most decks have 20 energy)

          If your running a stadium card this card is a big mistake (knowing it kills stadiums from anyone)

          If you encounter a fighting deck you auto lose basically (Buzzwole GX and Mega Lucario are big in those kinds and can with stand its attack)

          And with only having 6 prizes to lose, this thing needs be the center of the deck just to take out 1 to 2 Pokémon

  38. There are some real missed opportunities in the Johto seasons. One being that Cyndaquil never evolved (until Sinnoh). There’s an episode where it trains with ash so that it can battle a Skarmory and during the match Cyndaquil tanks 2 steel wings and basically activates something like Infernape’s Blaze ability in Sinnoh where its fire grows bigger and stuff. Would’ve been perfect opportunity to evolve it.

    Also, this song is cheesy and great

            Mine’s Impish and it’s freaking rock solid bulky no doubt because of that 140 def

            so get it on a physical attacker beef up with swords and suck back health and fight back with Aqua Jet, but the entire plan falls apart because of that extremely unfair EE forcing me out and forcing a switch out (only once in a blue moon it’s helpful) but really its just lets Stealth rock waste 25% of the already 50% away

          • It would be
            First Impression
            Aqua Jet
            Leech Life
            Then depending on the ability that replaces EE
            Swords Dance/Liquidation/Coverage. Actually you might forego First Impression for Liquidation.

          • Oh yeah of course that was the other nerf. Actually with those I think the Gale Wings one may be less necessary. Or maybe Gale Wings could’ve let it bypass those abilities and terrain restriction but had the HP nerf, at least that way it isn’t completely down in flames.
            Fair enough, I just don’t like Alolan Dugtrio.

          • Talonflame and Gengar didnt deserve the nerfs. But oh well ;~; I guess bad things happen to good pokemon

  41. Something I noticed in the Arrowverse:
    There are a lot of references to Bruce Wayne in Arrow/Flash (same Earth), but almost none to Batman. But in Supergirl (alternate Earth to A/F) we get many references to Batman, but not to Bruce Wayne. Could mean that on the A/F Earth Bruce Wayne isn’f a vigilante and on the Sg Earth he isn’t a Rich Celebrity. If the Titans Tv show is in the Arrowverse (and it probably is) it’s more likely to be set on the Sg Earth, tho that could make the chances of Kid Flash joining Titans smaller.

    Reply
      • I’m not entirely sure but the GS ball is definitely involved. From the source I got this from:

        “The GS Ball is obtained after beating the Elite Four. You head to the Goldenrod PC where it will be given to you (for some reason you must move right after entrance to make the event work). You then head to Kurt who will work on it for one day. After that, you get it back and are now able to head to Ilex Forest to battle Celebi! Basically, same as the original except for the entrance thing.” Whether this means it is in the game already or something else idk as I didn’t get the original Crystal.

  44. Back with some more maps! I updated Route 11 to better fit the overall region map (the region map shows it entering a city from the north). I also added the ice rock. Above that is Vouno City. I may change the design. Currently, it is a revamp of an old map I made for another area, but it seemed too complicated. So I’m using it now! The ski lift at the north of the city takes you to Vouno Peak, where one of the main characters lives.

        • Changing it up and adding details could help but it looks like a nice little town anyway so I don’t think it’s something you absolutely must do.

          That said, a skating rink would be great because it adds even more personality to the town

  45. Another, related question. If you could have any one of the following elemental powers, which would you choose?

    -Pyrokinesis (Fire manipulation)
    -Hydrokinesis (Water)
    -Geokinesis (Earth)
    -Aerokinesis (Air)
    -Atmoskinesis (Steam)
    -Magmakinesis (Magma)
    -Electrokinesis (Electricity)
    -Phytokinesis (Plants)
    -Cryokinesis (Ice)
    -Psammokinesis (Sand, and to be nice throw in Glass)

    Alternatively, you can choose two but they’d only be half the power of the ability.

            Earth
            Electric

            Plant
            Metal
            Light
            Shadow

          • Well we’re working off my elemental system

            Fire
            Water
            Air
            Earth
            Vapour (Fire + Water)
            Electric (Fire + Air)
            Magma (Fire + Earth), sometimes replaced with Metal
            Ice (Water + Air)
            Flora (Water + Earth)
            Sand (Air + Earth), sometimes including dust and glass

          • I’m not disavowing your system, you must understand I’ve had this system ever since I discovered my “connection” to the elements and I’ve had this feeling for as long as I can possibly remember

            But back on task I just find as you stated those other abilities mere fragments or fusions of classical elements unnecessary on their own

          • I know, I just felt like sharing mine because it’s where the question is coming from. Also, light and dark manipulation are the same from a physical standpoint because ‘making darkness’ and ‘removing light’ has the same effect, and vice versa. From a fantasy sense they can differ tho.

            In my system, fusions are separate because in whatever writing I use it in people can’t have both so the fusions have to be their own, with Ice and Vapour being separated from Water because without that distinction Water is just simply far too varied.

          • I personally put light and dark more of the spiritual and evil sense of the building blocks of the world since good and evil are very much apart of any world and must coexist together (to remove any of the two creates imbalance in the grand scheme of life)

          • If I was to incorporate it, it’d definitely be more ‘preserving force vs destructive force’ rather than good vs evil tbh.

          • Yeah that’s just me. There’s a spiritual sense of the elements or a logical viewpoint

            Like Fire is warmth light and a fundamental source of life on this world

            Opposed to it merely ignition and high temperature of gasses

          • It’s definitely more interesting handling it from a physical and metaphysical standpoint, I’ll give you that.

    • It enables manipulation of existing elements like Avatar bending right?
      Aerokinesis would allow flight, creating vacuums and air voids to suffocate, tornadoes etc so probably that.
      Otherwise there’s Hydrokinesis with blood control, drowning, dehydrating/mummification, rain control, whirlpools, tectonic shifting via control of the sea, other stufff
      Electrokinesis which could potentially destabilise someones cells, electrocute, power stuff, explode things, burn things etc
      Pyrokinesis is largely obvious, being able to put out and absorb existing Fire might be very useful.

      I can probably think of very destructive uses for all of them and some if not many constructive uses. The Plant one I’d make plants that produce ‘meat fruit’, that is exactly the same taste, texture and appearance as meat but doesn’t come with the killing or the negative health aspects for example.

      Reply
      • If they were powerful enough, then couldn’t someone with Electrokinesis (which is what I’d probably choose) use a lot of the others? Atoms are inherently electronic in nature, and their interactions are primarily electronic.

        • Also read minds is a ability

          Thoughts are mere electrical pulses and if you can sense and feel them you can decipher thoughts

          • Same here I’ve been taking what little time I have to finish up my other games so far I just have Final FantasyIX, The Evil Within 2, a few builds that I’ve been thinking about in Minecraft and Everything.

  49. So with DragonBall Super ending I think they only have a couple options left to them. Either they end it and spend the next few years doing movies and spin offs or they continue the series in a new show. In the case of the new show tho they’ll have to make some major decisions. If they choose to start after the final chapters of the original manga then they’ll need to retcon the sh!t out of the ending and completely ignore GT entirely. They may be able to get away with what happened in the last chapter of the original manga, but there’s no way GT would have ever happened given then events of Super now

    First off I don’t see Goku becoming a kid with the events of Super happening. Given that they know actual gods in DBS it would be a no brainer that they would get in touch with Beerus and Whis first instead o going on a crazy adventure across the entire universe to find the Black star dragonballs. Also both Baby and the dark Shenrons or whatever wouldn’t give Goku or Vegeta a good fight if Super happened. They wouldn’t need SS4 in the slightest to beat them. So basically if they continues on with the story they’ll just need to gut the entire ending and completely ignore GT. None of it makes sense otherwise.

    Reply
      • I mean it’d have to be a “what if?” now. Given how Toriyama has basically disowned it and had mostly noting to do with it and how he actually gives a crap about Super I can’t imagine GT would take precedent. They’ll have to completely scrap it from the series or retcon the crap out of it.

        Reply
          • It just didn’t feel like DB to me. They had a very specific world with very specific kinds of characters in Z and then all of a sudden they all felt different. It was almost like all the characters changed into something unrecognizable. Also the animation was not what I wanted after Z. They really went in a direction that was not great.

    • Personally I feel they are just going to go on a hiatus and come out with a dragonball super z or something like that. I do wonder how the tournament is going to end

      Reply
      • That’s more or less what I’m thinking. I’m not sure they’ll want to do nothing after how popular Super got. Super in and of itself is done. A new sequel could happen tho. One where there’s another time skip and they completely write over GT and do a brand new story.

          • I can dream at least lol and I am about to finally get into the dub now that we are at the goku black arc! And random but if you have a system that can play it you should get xenoverse 2 if you have a switch! It’s a really great game if you are a fan of the series!

          • We shall see. I played part of the first game and fell off of it hard. We shall see if I play the 2nd. Now FighterZ is something I’m VERY interested in. Can’t wait for that. Didn’t get a chance to play the open beta so I’ll be going in fresh lol

          • So pumped to get my hands on it. While not always great at fighting games I’m a fan. So Dragonball and a traditional fighting game speaks to me.

          • One thing I will say as someone who owns both 2 is a HUGE improvement over the first one at least in my personal opinion. It’s like the difference between tenakichi 1 and 2 lol and fighterz does look awesome! Hopefully it comes to switch!

          • My problem with the first Xenoverse was it was too much of the same story and not enough new. I got to at least the Cell fight and felt like I might as well just be watching the show. Yeah there are some differences, but it wasn’t enough to fully pull me in. Maybe if the character customization was more fleshed out by that point in the game….idk…..XP

          • I can understand that. Xenoverse two had more differences in the story I will say. Some movie characters got involved in certain arcs. And if a 3 ever happens I hope the story gets involved somewhat with dragonball and maybe GT. Mainly dragonball though.

          • I know still it’s a dream 😂 still annoyed he didn’t get to finish off freiza in the resurrection of f arc

          • Goku will always rule supreme. Vegeta is the more interesting character, but Goku is the traditional Shonen character so he gets the spotlight

  50. Jumping off of my previous post. Why in the world did they think it was a good idea to change Trunks’ hair color to blue in the Goku Black arc? I get that his hair was originally supposed to be blue in the manga, but considering young Trunks has purple hair idk why they would even bother.

    Reply
    • Idk, I thought that the other day. Only thing I can think is maybe it changed as he got older? I guess he could’ve dyed it for no reason. Or it’s just to show he’s an alternate version (not that they felt the need before).

      Reply
      • I mean it’s not a alternate Trunks given that when he came back originally he had purple hair and from what I’ve heard this is the same Trunks that was from the Android arc. So idk……I guess just to differentiate him more from young Trunks? Just seems like a dumb change after so long.

        Reply
        • It’s not alternate future Trunks but it is alternate from the Trunks of the main timeline is what I meant. It’s really not necessary unless Toriyama requested it.

  55. So I watched the first episode of the Goku Black arc from last night. Looking pretty promising. There’s a few things I want to say. First off it looks like it’ll be a really cool arc. I’ve heard it’s one of the best in the series. Second I can’t say I’m a fan of Mai being in adult Trunks’ world. In his timeline she wouldn’t have turned back into a kid because Bulma’s birthday party wouldn’t have ever happened. So it doesn’t make sense for her to be the same age as Trunks. She’d either be dead or an old woman. Other than that I’m cool with things. I’m surprised how far into the episode it took them to reference that this is in fact the same Trunks that went back in time the first time. I was afraid I had missed something and this was actually a different Trunks. It would have been interesting, but I’d prefer this being the same version of him. I’m looking forward to seeing how he reacts to everyone being so different in the present day. Gohan will likely surprise him……maybe disappoint him hahaha

  57. Ayy, I got my boi (Blendd S-eraph) to help me with another randomizer. I really need to learn how to do it myself though. Still, I appreciate what he’s doing, so thanks again, man.

  58. The Chinese leaks public reveal on December 26th has been bugging me ever since the post on here a few weeks ago. I’ve been looking constantly every day for new info/rumors/leaks. Trying to think positive but it’s really hard to when such a big change like a new battle system supposedly similar to Digimon World could potentially damage the system that we’ve known and loved and that has worked for 20+ years. Also nervous about the potential Kanto Remake rumors. I want a new region, I DO NOT WANT Kanto again! How do you guys manage to separate rumors/leaks from reality and move on with life? I just can’t seem to do that.

    • Because the majority of leaks are fake and even when they’re real they don’t convey the whole truth.

      And it’s about time the franchise has a change, I’d say COD’s changed more and that’s notorious for being the same game

    • I wouldn’t worry about the battle system. Even if it is in fact different I doubt GF would do anything terribly crazy with it. It’ll likely be easily understandable and if all goes well fun. Pokemon fans will just have to learn the new way of battling. I know many Pokemon fans hate change, but it’s really not that scary.

      • I hope Game Freak knows what they are doing if the battle system changes rumor is true. I don’t want them to alienate those that have been playing for 20 years since Red and Blue released. That’s what I’m most worried about in all honestly. Especially the statements that have been made by your source (I know who they are but I won’t say their name since you said they want to say anonymous) comparing it to the Digimon World games. I watched footage of Digimon World in action and it looks nothing at all compared to Pokemon.

        Reply
        • I doubt it will be exactly like DW. GF will make their own system. That was just a comparison likely to say how it will be more action-y than turn based. I feel it will still stay very Pokemon even if it turns the game into an action RPG. Also think ya kindly. I’m trying to keep their trust so even if some people know who I’m talking about I’d rather keep it to a select few than let the whole world know. That way they don’t get attacked with questions and such.

          • I hope so. I really hope that it was just a glance comparison and not what it will actually be like. I might consider quitting the series if it’s a carbon copy of Digimon World. Has your source updated you with any more specifics about the supposed changes to the battle system since the Chinese leaks were made public on December 26th? Or have they not? I’ve seen your posts on Bulbagarden Forums. You said that your source told you just recently that the story may be similar to B/W and S/M, so I was just curious to see if you had any new information about the supposed battle system changes.

          • Nah not much more than that. My source likely has their own sources as they aren’t actually directly connected to Pokemon or GF. So they get their info and then if they feel like passing it on they do. I don’t think they know much more than what I’ve outlined. They may, but they haven’t give me anymore details than that. Of course when I get info I’ll share. I’d say we should keep our eyes on February. Given that they told me something big may be coming I think that’s when we”ll see whatever it is first. could be Zeraora, but it could be something brand new. At this point all we can do is wait and see.

          • Nah just a general “soon” I’m not even sure they know 100% when or what it is. Just that something is coming.

          • It certainly is. That said even if Zeraora is the next reveal my source says that the movie will likely feature something that will “set the stage” . I gotta imagine either a new Pokemon will be in the movie or a new mechanic.

          • I’m nervous that if this news is announced in February then it could be Kanto Remakes for the Switch to coincide with the 22nd Anniversary in Japan. I hope to Arceus that this is NOT the case! But if it is Kanto Remakes though, I’ll try to stay positive (hopefully) and hope that they have enough new to justify a return to the region for like the 5th time and that the battle system and mechanics are not destroyed enough where it’s like a major reboot like some people (like Lockstin) have predicted.

          • I would say regardless of what the new game is that next month we’ll get Zeraora first. Then in March we’ll get a reveal.

          • Yeah. We tend to always get Mythical Pokemon reveals in February. So I would bet my money that we’ll see Zeraora next month. Though last year, they announced Marshadow in April along with a new movie trailer for Pokemon, I Choose You! to showcase it’s role in the movie.

          • Yeah, but last year was a mid gen year. They didn’t need to announce Marshadow until then. This time if the game really is coming they’ll need to get Zeraora out of the way asap before showing off something new.

          • That’s true. Like you’ve said before, we really have to just wait and see what happens. I think I’m going to try to go with mindset of this until we get the official announcement of the Switch games for any rumors going forward: “It’s just rumors, not official pieces of news. Just ignore anything as fiction until we get the official announcement. Whenever that may be.” I suppose whatever makes me feel better and works I guess.

    • Let’s be real, 99% are fake unless they have some sort of proof. The starters had that same classified shitt and the style as the other leaks, the sprites for USUM looked like proper sprites before Scires confirmed them, and so on

  61. Hey quick question for Seraph and Star: how did you guys like Naganadel? Just asking because I remember you two being the most hyped for Poipole back in the Pre-Release season.

    Reply
  62. Lol. I just realized that this year is the year that Pokemon will be 20 years old in the United States. It’ll be that old in September since Red and Blue were released in September of 1998 in the U.S. That also reminds me. I should really get around to finishing Pokemon Gold on the 3DS VC. Who else hasn’t finished Gold/Silver 3DS VC or is planning to get Crystal for the VC?

  63. And I think I found a new love for monotype!
    It’s very interesting, and it just much more fun than normal competitive play! Plus it kinda uses more mental mind in the sense that you fight a team that beats yours type wise. And if you win the satisfaction is amazing

    • until you constantly see the same old shite over and over and it becomes bloody repetitive for the crap your weak against, and believe me i’ve been doing Monotype for nearly four years and i’ve seen all the average teams and what they try to do

  64. Yay!! I got my new Pikachu mug today! It came really fast too. The same with my Pansear plush I ordered before as well. The Pokemon Center really ships out quickly. I’m not even doing 2 day shipping. The packages came within a couple of days of me getting the “package has been shipped” email. Anyway I’m gonna drink all kinds of liquids out of this mug. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/32d7db6583aad0e0ec5da8bc00bffe65688ff85a26b580225d143f5c5e765af6.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ed85e29d6faa7235e62f4b6be730c69de2bdceb4689bcc2903941897ed9a2172.jpg

  65. So this was my final team (after Episode RR) that I had in Ultra Sun, and this team was based around the idea that I had to use Pokémon (with the exception of the starter because I wanted at least one Pokémon from Alola) from previous playthroughs in different games (because USUM was a culmination of the 3DS games): https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/35c2fd3e9056857bfa59917569b7e08d409e7268c7f1dc1a74f46566851539c4.png
    And here’s some bios about the Pokémon I used:

    Tony (Incineroar)
    Lv: 72
    Blaze
    Firium Z
    Hailing from: Ultra Sun
    Naughty
    – Flare Blitz
    – Darkest Lariat
    – Flamethrower
    – Outrage
    Fun Fact: Never used the Incinium Z for Tony. I prefer watching something getting nuked by a large fireball rather than a 30 second wrestler move.

    Peeko (Pelipper)
    Lv: 71
    Drizzle (was originally Keen Eye)
    Sharp Beak
    Hailing from an X nuzlocke (died early on)
    Impish
    – Scald
    – Stockpile
    – Ice Beam
    – Hurricane
    Fun Fact: When I got to the 4th island, I spent about a good hour grinding Beach Points to purchase a 100 BP Ability Capsule. When Peeko learned Drizzle, he became the destroyer of worlds.

    Ion (Jolteon)
    Lv: 71
    Volt Absorb
    Magnet
    Hailing from Red
    Modest
    – Volt Switch
    – Signal Beam
    – Shadow Ball
    – Discharge
    Fun Fact: Ion was actually the most used Pokémon I used in the whole 3DS generation of Pokémon games, with it being used in X, Red, and now US.

    Rocko (Sudowoodo)
    Lv: 72
    Rock Head
    Quick Claw
    Hailing from Heart Gold
    Naughty
    – Head Smash
    – Wood Hammer
    – Sucker Punch
    – Hammer Arm
    Fun Fact: I was originally going to settle for a bug type (Heracross, Pinsir or Leavanny), but I ultimately wanted to use someone that I barely used in a play through, and Rocko gutted that idea nicely.

    Magneto (Metagross)
    Lv: 72
    Clear Body
    Metagrossite
    Hailing from Black
    Calm
    – Meteor Mash
    – Flash Cannon
    – Ice Punch
    – Zen Headbutt
    Fun Fact: Magneto saved me in so many later fights, such as Ultra Necrozma, Totem Ribombee, and Lysandre. So glad I had him with me.

    Sandstorm (Flygon)
    Lv: 72
    Levitate
    Dragnium Z
    Hailing from Emerald
    Serious
    – Earthquake
    – Draco Meteor
    – Fire Punch
    – Dragon Claw
    Fun Fact: Ironically, I finished off the game with Sandstorm, as I was barely able to unleash a Devastating Drake at Giovanni’s Mega Mewtwo X

    Thoughts about this team?

  66. When I finally make the full climb of the E4 in Black do I dare SR for shiny Reshiram once I get to that point? I reset for Ho-oh in HG last year and that wasn’t too bad, but there’s nothing guaranteeing my success this time……..

  67. Just realized how many shows either got out on hiatus or are pushed to 2019, like DBS is ending, and GOT, Stranger Things, and even Rick and Morty are pushed to 2019. Like this is too coincidental.

  69. I hope for Pokemon switch they bring back Triple battles. They were probably my favorite battle mode. It’s just so fun. I hated rotation, but if they bring one they got to bring the other. And they should also bring back Inverse battles. Inverse battles would make a good Battle Frontier Facility tbh.
    Since (Im assuming) the switch pokemon wont have that much lag I think theyll bring them back

  70. My Winter break has been going on since December 15 and it finally ends today. For the first time in my life I’m actually not sad about it ending because I’m becoming bored out of my mind. I’m one of those people who actually ends up doing more with my free time when I have less of it, so I’m looking forward to the months to come. Of course, I’ll probably have lots more homework this semester than last semester but maybe that’s not such a bad thing!

  71. Just saw the poster for the new Pokemon movie, and I’m so confused. Like is it about Ash in Alola or is it a Sequel to I Choose You?

    Reply
  72. Why the hell did they even remove triple/rotation battles in Gen 7? The only reasons I can think of are
    1. The backgrounds
    2. The trainer being visible

    Which like… solutions to both are to simplify the background and to remove the trainer in that battle type. I don’t understand

  74. I want to make it clear before I eventually head to the league

    Do you have to switch Reshiram onto your team to fight N and Ghetsis? I kinda don’t want it because it overlaps with my Emboar and I want to use my full fledged team I’ve had the throughout the whole game
