The Pokémon Company International has announced 2018 as the Year of Legendary Pokémon!
To celebrate, special distributions for several Gen VII version exclusive Legendaries will be ongoing for the remainder of the year! These Legendaries can be obtained with any copies of Sun & Moon and Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, however, the game you’re downloading them to will effect the Pokémon’s details. If you use USUM all of the Legendaries will arrive in your game at Level 100, however they’ll only be Level 60 in SM. Check out the full list of distributions for the year:
- FEBRUARY – Dialga & Palkia via Gamestop (US) and GAME (UK)
- MARCH – Regigigas & Heatran
- APRIL – Raikou & Entei
- MAY – Xerneas & Yveltal
- JUNE – Shiny Zygarde
- JULY – Tornadus & Thundurus
- AUGUST – Kyogre & Groudon
- SEPTEMBER – Latios & Latias
- OCTOBER – Reshiram & Zekrom
- NOVEMBER – Ho-Oh & Lugia
No word yet on distribution methods for the other Legendaries quite yet. In addition, Pokémon GO, Pokémon TCG, and Pokémon Shuffle will have various tie-in events throughout the year!
What other Legen-WAIT FOR IT-dary events would you like to see in 2018?
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
The third one is basically my pipe dream tbh
Oh my god this is perf GJhkhjkmh,nlk,jn
Try to guess the names! Like a serious guess!
Name*
One. Version.
Two versions would be super interesting if they actual differed and had cool interactions
I thought of an idea but it sounds like fanfiction and would take ages to write lol
I just don’t want to pay $120 for a full game so I’m not going to expect it. If we don’t expect it, maybe gamefreak will listen
I wanna here I wanna here!
Than think of a name ;3
Pokemon for the Nintendo Switch™
Goddamnit XD
Scarlet and Navy (or any variation of Red and Blue), or something like Equinox and Solstice
I love those names
I agree with you on all counts except megas returning to the forefront. I think if there’s a mechanic it’ll be different
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
– Actually pomotes playing together rather than playing both games or praying for
*praying for good trades
YES
YES
Y E A S
Oh and one more thing, add some sort of ability to do stuff with the other player in their world
Many of these are cool but
I doubt GF would care enough about GTS economy to make changes like that.
Different characters and regions for each game would take too long to make lol
Trade economy is important and if they actual tool their time with the game it wouldn’t be hard lol especially with their current system
Like actually making it impossible to ask for male miltanks
Shhh don’t give them ideas
Breeding takes long enough and is hard enough depending what you are going for.
In terms of getting a perfect/shiny Pokémon, not in terms of actually getting a Pokémon which makes trading extremely pointless outside of version exclusives and one per games
So you want to punish people who breed for perfects/shiny ‘mon just to make trading slightly better? If it’s so pointless then what’s the problem? Just don’t do it.
Actually there are ways to manipulate those sort of things, if you magikarp spam you can get shinies and if they fix bottle caps I wouldn’t mind that other part
Not everyone knows about the Magikarp Method, then there are those who think it takes the surprise factor from it. I still don’t see how making breeding take longer/harder does anything except further encourage hacking.
Comp is a cancer on the development of the main game’s progress. Trading was a core function before breeding was lol, it should take priority.
To be fair if they tweaked breeding a bit, the suggestion you made wouldn’t be an issue
Maybe a whole region working like Opeluid City
Wouldn’t it also work for Route 4 in BW2?
Hacking >>>>>>>> Breeding Pokémon for hours
For competetive: Maybe
For shinies: F*ck no
Ehh not like they’re worth anything anyways
They’re for satisfaction
Not when they’re so easy to find
They’re just tedious
This.
Unless you’re doing a tournament, then no
Nah I mean it’s still a better experience than running in circles for hours hatching eggs
Just a matter of not getting caught
100% true
I just feel satisfaction in breeding
Honestly, 100% legitimate breeding is suicide inducing. I have a hacked ditto and that’s the only reason I breed at all
They need an official battle simulator lol
This
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.
Like y’know, actually make destiny knot have a 100% success chance and give players an auto 6iv ditto for one
Or just make a separate game for comp because it’s legit cancerous on the single player campaign
I’m just saying there’s no reason they shouldn’t fix breeding
There’s no reason they should just scrap their terrible mechanics.
You don’t see pro Overwatch players having to earn their character or their weapons, they just have skill at the hero and at teamwork. All their assets are available to them and they make it work.
True
It just feels weird that gf claims to be against hacking mons for comp yet does nothing to lessen the need to do so
That’s skill though. Breeding isn’t skill, it’s just tedious
That’s the point I’m making lol
oh sorry I can’t fuckin’ read lol
I agree too tbh
I know, I’m just saying something honestly should be done about it, I agree its tedious as hell
They should just implement a built in PokeGen post game…
or better
SPLIT
COMP
FROM
CASUAL
Make a side series focusing on competitive and team building.
The main series can focus on what pokemon was built to be. A single player game with multiplayer elements and this side series can actually balance it too
To be fair you should be allowed to use the mons from the actual games in comp
Like at least make it like an add on or something
sure but i mean.. why
you could still battle others in the main series
Because players can competitively use the pokemon they’ve grown close to in battle, kinda feels a bit special.
Or they could just fight with them with intense battles in game because sentiment shouldn’t get in the way of progress
but they have terrible IVs and natures
Nature’s are incredibly easy to maniuplate and bottle caps allow you to manually edit IVS
thats a pain in the ass though
Allow easily accessable bottle caps
You don’t have to play competitively, so you wouldn’t even need to bother
Or they could just make it easy and let creators just recreate a better version of their Mon rather than jump through hoops
At least allow them to be compatible
If XD can do it so can the side series
Nah, I disagree. That just means they can charge us more money by splitting 1 game into 2 (which they’ve been doing already, but at least didn’t need to buy both for the full experience)
You don’t though. Only a small part of the fandom cares about comp anyways. They don’t even have to buy the main series.
Just split them. They just make the other worse
They wouldn’t be the ‘full experience’ tho. They’d be two different series in the same franchise. Which the game desperately needs because single player suffers due to comp
Pokemon games consist of a story, post game, trading, breeding and competitive battling (probably more stuff, but that’s the core of it). To serperate any one of those components into a completely separate entity means you don’t get the full experience from a single game. If I have to buy a separate game in order to battle competitively then yes, the only way I get the full experience is to fork out more money. Unless I’m misundestaning exactly what you guys are proposing (which is likely, so I aplologise if that’s the case).
But I think this is a moot point for me at least considering I do nearly all of my competitive battling on Showdown since I prefer their ruleset and tier system.
No, that’s a terrible idea.
Why?…
Care to elaborate?
Because single player suffers from comp and comp suffers from singleplayer
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
Now tell me
After beating Brycen do I get access to Route 9 without going up the tower first? I don’t want to go through that stupid trek to see if I can or not when I can just ask here
what do you mean stupid trek?
It’s incredibly short. Just spray some repels. There are only a few trainers there anyways
Saving the trainers for after the tower just cause. You still never answered the question
oh i thought you meant the tower. No you cant go there
Why can’t they just let me get my Pawniard (It’s already going to be my last Pokémon to evolve so it would be better to get sooner)
}: (
my Haxorous didn’t evolve into the E4 and ended up being the most important member on my team against N and Ghetsis. It’s chill
Netflix Poland partnered with 4 (good) Polish Youtubers and made a web series in Black Mirror style (with the same type of issues). They’re good, I think fans of BM would enjoy them, but sadly there aren’t english subtitles as of now.
Despite being sick I got it now!!!! 😀 https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3948e1af9d74cd4eefbc488c1b33f614b56acbaf4f6dbc3acb1608be6514cdac.jpg

So I hear you like Alola?
If you look at the bag the right way it sorta looks like a charjabug
Charjabug with all the Meat and insides taken out
Charjabag
Baguette girl is great. Also I like your username, I relate. Though tbh i dont feel like we’re negative just…realistic
But just cause a game comes out a certain year doesn’t mean it will be sh*t?
That isn’t realistic, more just an opinion that most don’t like (Still don’t care when it comes out, much happier just having Kirby this year to buy and having Pokémon next year)
http://torterra.tumblr.com/post/169890644577/bedupolker-toastoat-trac3r-just-my
Had the game for like a half hour and I already love the game
Tornado and quite a few others are locked though till you spend 500 coins (Though you are given 500 from the get go) 😛
Also oddly enough I haven’t seen Hammer in the game at all yet
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
People ask why I don’t make friends in my school; this is why. That’s what these scumbags are like
The lack of empathy some people have scares me
Agreed…..
I don’t like high schoolers star
Jfc that’s messed up, like what’s wrong with these people seriously
Can’t say I know, that’s what peeps are like…
I had a seizure over the summer (but no memory of the day). They’re no joke.
Agreed, I just hate that they treated it like one
also, are ya okay now?
Yeah I’m on antiseizure medicine for life. So I should be good
I see.. does it have any bad side effects?
Yeah but they either aren’t appearing or I can deal with them.
I actually switched from another one b/c the first was making me feel awful (irritated all the time, memory issues, etc.)
This has got me pissed now! That’s horrible and its why I have very little faith in kids these days (I hope they get attacked by Orcs)
Agreed… except I have some much stronger words for them TBH…
We should sic Earthen’s wrath on them
Way more
Hmm 4chan’s wrath + Earthen’s + Ultra Necrozma + Mega Rayquaza?
How about we send Brock lesnar after them? Could scare the crap out of them at least lol
Brock Lesnar? Not sure who that is
Former UFC fighter Current wwe superstar. Freaking huge and a badass. Just don’t let him talk lol
Ah that guy sounds like he’d scare them
Just don’t let him talk is all lol then again if they make fun of his voice that gives him more reason to kick their ass I suppose 🤔
The anonymous hacker?
That man could destroy the world
Or better yet.
This guy

Me
Kids are really awful… you idk why, but they are…..not all obviously, but many…..
They should go f*ck themselves
If the next Pokemon game is based in Italy or Spain, fire started bull is certain
You never know with Pokémon
I mean Hawaii was the idea place for a Dolphin
Any place with a sea is ideal for a dolphin
They infest pretty much every ocean on the planet and some rivers
How about a tiki?
The Tapu kind of encroach on that territory tho
Koko is a chicken
Lele is a butterfly
Bulu is a bull
Fini is a swordfish
?????
But they are similar to Tiki’s in design
When they use Guardian of Alolan they have resemble statues of Tiki. Pokémon can have multiple basis you know, you must be new.

But a tropical place would be 100X more ideal. Dolphins most of the time paired with tropical places such
There were alot of missed opportunities in Alola
Humming Birds and another Manta Ray or Sting Ray to name some
IM SO MAD I WANT A RAY
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a44d43c0765eba4edc708d4fef3f832c42a4a28d3581891eded36efb0697a237.png
That’s a MantaRay, StingRays are a different spiecies
He didn’t say what kind 👀
I want another manta ray but a more suave lookin one
Like my starter
Even a Alolan Mantine being Water/Electric would be good
OMG I STILL WANT A HUMMINGBIRD MON
I actually made one out of spite of GF’s lack of one
A pure Flying type one that when it moves at high speeds its cells transforms into pure air and then reappear
Buuuut, Water starters are always based on animals that can walk on land
It would be the one time I would want the fire starter to go bipedal lol fire Minotaur would be pretty cool!
I want my Toroast!!!!!!!
Toroast-Triggore-Eruptoro!!!!
Is Triggore a Tumblr user that gets Triggered all the time?
it’s a play on Trigger which yes it means to get angry (or the sheer definition for something to happen) which the entire pokemon line is based on Bull’s iconic temperament and Gore which is the term for horn based wounds (not the actual bloody gore, if a guy is hit by a pair of bull horns its called being gored)
Ergo If you start this pokemon up you may end up gored i thought it was pretty clever
Is that a Yes?
Not the stupid tumblr crap
But what would it’s second typing end up being?
I’m all for a Fire Minotaur starter, but I hope it won’t be too obvious, I mean it should be more than just a Fire Minotaur, it needs something to make it diffrent than the tens of Fire Minotaur fakemon.
I just beat Xenoblade Chronicles 2! That was an incredibly fun 60 hours, I have to say. I’m happy I actually made it a priority to play it because it was fantastic. Now I really want to go and play the original Xenoblade, I can’t get enough!
I’m still stuck in chapter 3 lol
Confirmed Beetle Kirby is the most OP ability in Kirby: BR
Buggo represent
I think you mean Smash Kirby
WHY DO I ALWAYS GET IDIOTS IN RANKED MATCHES
FUCKTARD NO WHERE NEAR THE RAINMAKER AS THE TEAM BLINDLY SQUIDLAUNCHES INTO WAITING ENEMY TERRITORY TO GET WASTED
TWO FREAKING CRACKS IN A ROW
Ack i need something to cool down with…..today has been a absolute losing streak in ANYTHING
I really want to hunt down a Rom of Leafgreen and hack out a Rhyhorn as my starter but with that poses a very gigantic problem
Misty and lorelei the absolute BANE of my Kanto Ground runs and they’re even worse in Leafgrean, Misty has Water Pulse and Recover and Lorelei has Surf so that’s one hit KO on everything
Try and figure out how to get an Electabuzz (If you can get Rhyhorn you could try to also get it)
Not to be a negative nancy, but I could honestly care less about any legendary that isn’t shiny. You can farm for them so easily and they give you so many already it kind of loses it’s value to me.
^^
Somethings wrong
Downloading the Demo for Royale says you can transfer Meta Knight as a playable in-game character, but I’ve done it twice and he hasn’t popped up
Maybe he comes later
That’s always a possibility sadly its too soon for any forums to have something about the game
So, I’ve been enjoying the hell outta the FE8 randomizer. It’s pretty crazy too.
You have me to thank;3
If Gen 8 is Spain, what pokemon/gyms/locations would you like to see?
Flamenco Dancer Gym (maybe just a dancer for a gym), a Conquistador Gym Leader
Bull Fire Starter
Not Spain related but I want a freaking dolphin Pokémon already x.x so annoying how we didn’t get one in a Hawaiian region.
For locations I am not sure if it’s in Spain in the legend but maybe an area based on El Dorado? Don’t care if it isn’t real or not could be a cool place to find a legendary Pokémon
I know gold’s a bit gauche, but I wanted to ensure you grasp my new position atop the pecking order. And for the sake of your feeble mind, let’s keep the name simple as well; we’ll call this Golden Govnah
It’s a bit douche
Hmmmmm
Eruptoro
Aggressive PKM
Fire
Blaze HA: Anger Point
A very large stocky bovine pokemon with a powerful body, a massive humped shoulder with small orange spike like bones sticking out, thick leg muscles and its hooves are a deep maroon with a organic shackle, its coat is a warm coal grey with a red tint with a flame decal, its long tail has a tuft of flame at the back, on its head it has two thick long horns that are a bright red color (which can heat up and spew flames at the tip) its ruddy snout has a marking that resembles a nose ring and lastly large orange angry eyes with no pupils

“Fire courses its body like blood and heats up the more agitated it is, when pushed over the limit its whole body engulfs with fire and rampages until it finally burns itself out”
“Nasty tempered, trainers must work extra hard to earn its trust, to work itself up for battle it snorts flames out of its nose”
wait
wait wait wait wait wait wait
it’s NOT a ground type?
Why would it be
For example Volcanos (eruption is in its name). and Idk why, but I feel like ground is really related to bulls. And with Ground being your fav type, It seemed obvious.
Erupt as erupt with anger
It doesn’t mean it has to have lava, I didn’t want to tact on any unnecessary types as in Ground, Rock, Dark, Fighting
It’s just a Fire bull
Place your bets folks place your bets! Which Pre-Release Promo and starter pack will I get tomorrow?
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/670e85200183c5e86d7017fd57a009c9e3845228d671226278bcfc27620f34ac.jpg
*What ever promo you get will determine the starter deck you get soooo
I bet you get Rotom. Also cool you’re going to a prerelease? Are you any good at playing the tcg? I’ve dabbled a bit, but I’m not super in practice and prolly couldn’t play against anyone other than my brother who is in the same boat
Yeah it’s my late Birthday present from my dad and I’m so-so at tcg like I play well without EX’s around.
Sadly I have no luck in getting duplicate EX’s except 2 being M-Steelix and Volcanion (2 of each) and you usually need more than one of something to make a competitive deck.
Maybe you’ll get a GX or two. those are better imo lol
They definitely look better, yet I have quite a few awesome GX cards so far
Silvally, 2 Buzzwole (One from the UB Box set), Xuriktree, Ho-Oh, Decideye, Sylveon, Tapu Bulu, Wishwashi and A-Golem
I read that as “dabbed a bit”
Ew no….
Heatran dude
I wonder what Steel types come with it?
Maybe they redid Alolan Sandshrew or maybe Bronzor
Maybe klefki ;3
Oh I forgot Klefki is a possibility
I only mention Bronzor because Ultra Prism is mainly Sinnoh themed
Anything but Gumshoos.
According to the site Gumshoos packs a punch, but I for one think it’s card looks a bit odd
Also knowing its a big step down from its GX form
I just don’t much like it or the art used.
Okay, I googled it and I’m just confused. As of now, is there a physical release of Sonic Mania for the Switch?
Nope only download
