If You Love Rumors, That’s OK

by

I’m re-tooling this post a bit. Some people and outlets decried the coverage of the fake starters yesterday for not being reasonably believable or not 100% confirmed. I would argue though that reading about interesting stuff can be fun, especially when you’re covering a game intended for a primarily adolescent audience. Everyone needs a break from the stresses of life, why fuss over gaming news. Let’s just have fun and enjoy it.

As long as rumors or suspect information is clearly marked as such I think we can enjoy it without shame. No worries, we won’t stop covering them.

Have a good weekend everyone!

  4. My brain is stuck on the thought of how weird it is that my favourite mon’s shiny turned out to be the same colours as my country’s flag

  6. I’m a little late to trainersona, but oddly enough, Disqus keeps on saying that I need to be logged in to post an image, which I am.
    Anyway:

    Flygon (Sandstorm)
    Male
    Levitate
    Dragonium-Z
    – Earthquake
    – Fire Punch
    – Draco Meteor
    – Dragon Claw
    Usually reserved at first, but warms up to people after a couple hours. Very honorable and brave.

    Metagross (Eric)
    Male
    Clear Body/Tough Claws
    Metagrossite
    – Meteor Mash
    – Zen Headbutt
    – Ice Punch
    – Flash Cannon
    Is unusually jolly compared to the rest of his species, laughing off anything that would bother him.

    Cradily (Lily)
    Female
    Storm Drain
    Leftovers
    – Giga Drain
    – Stone Edge
    – Recover
    – Mirror Coat
    Very sarcastic and humorous, but cautious and thoughtful of the new world she’s now lives in.

    Dedenne (Mango)
    Male
    Cheek Pouch
    Petaya Berry
    – Super Fang
    – Volt Switch
    – Grass Knot
    – Thunderbolt
    Very mischievous but naive, often getting into trouble.

    Kingdra (Curry)
    Male
    Swift Swim
    Expert Belt
    – Rain Dance
    – Outrage
    – Hydro Pump
    – Ice Beam
    Comes across as serious and very polite, yet is surprisingly gluttonous because of burning a lot of calories in Swift Swim.

    Magmortar (Apex)
    Male
    Vital Spirit
    Wide Lens
    – Fire Blast
    – Flamethrower
    – Thunderbolt
    – Focus Blast
    Very cunning and brilliant, likes to show off his battling skills. A bit arrogant.
