Even more Pokémon native to the Hoenn region are coming to GO!
Starting tomorrow, several Dragon and Flying-Type Pokémon, including the Altaria, Salamence, Pelipper, Swellow and Metagross evolution lines will be catchable in the wild! The Flying/Dragon-type Legendary Rayquaza will also begun its stunt as a Legendary Raid Boss alongside Kyogre until March 16th.
In celebration of Rayquaza’s ascension, Generation III Pokémon will exclusively be taking over spawns worldwide until February 13th, Raid Bosses and Egg hatches will have some new additions, new special boxes – which include Raid Passes, Incubators, and Star Pieces – will be available in the in-game store until February 23rd, AND Lure Modules will run for six hours a pop in the same time frame.
Lots of exciting reasons to get out and GO this month – and this isn’t even counting the imminent Valentine’s Day event! I’m just excited that I’ll finally be able to catch one of my all time favorites, Altaria!
QUESTION OF THE DAY: If you could choose any Flying-type Pokémon to bring you wherever you need to go in real life which would you choose and why?

The fairies proceed to rip apart the opposing team, laughing
Naw they are too cute for that
In future games I want each region to have its own political system and identity. That’s why Alola stands out so much. They tried with Kalos and Unova but they could do so much more. . .
What
Uh, I can kinda see the political system in Alola, but in Unova Or Kalos?
You should elaborate a little lo
???
Like, trials, and a unique spin on the champion etc… something to make each riegon unique to themselves and have a new twist on the classic formula
Pearl and Marina amiibo were just announced!!! I’ve been thinking about getting into amiibo collecting at some point (I haven’t acquired any new ones since Wolf Link), and this is a good starting point.

I know someone here is going to like the right one… 🙂
Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Anybody here?
no
:/
Me neither
Just stopping by for a quick attack moment
You’re gonna have to emergency exit?
To answer this question thou must go on a perilous quest; transverse impossible mountains, dreadful seas and other realms fraught with danger: bring me the Sword of Zanthar which lies at the top of Mount Doommore and fulfill your destiny
Have you even done that, Rockyman?
Something similar but more so just falling in a random ditch and just happen to discover an ancient tomb containing the Soul Scepter of Alylizia a Elemental Goddess of Earth
*Lampshade over head*
Nope, just a lifeless lamp, deer.
Nope!
i had a very interesting dream last night, i was STILL shiny hunting Celebi and i ran in circles in anger and i found a golden Paras….i was thinking cool…but as i tried to capture it it was attacked and killed by a Shiny Raticate….
I had a dream where I had a bodygaurd of a shiny Buzzwole named Lightyear and he got very creative with how he attacked any threats to me.
For some reason, he kept saying “Buzzwole to the rescue!” when you pressed his chest.
That’s cute!
*sees the name Lightyear*
To infinity, A N D B E Y O N D
I had a dream where I found a shiny Arceus, but then it removed me from existence
It’s haunting your dreams now
it’ll take everything away from him
Maybe a Hypno was standing over his pillow using dream eater
Holy fucc my Pelipper is destroying everything at the Battle Tree with Scald and Hurricane
Drizzle helps.
It really does, it’s insane how powerful it makes Scald along with STAB
I was more referring to how it boosts Hurricane to 100% accuracy but that too.
Oh ok, but yeah firing off a 100% 110 power attack is really nice
And when you give it a sharp beak (did that for the main game), it just leaves nothing standing
Does the rain last long enough to not use Damp Rock? You can’t be coming up against many Electric types.
Yeah the duration is usually fine without the Damp Rock
so i want some opinions on something different

in the late summer Battle for Azeroth is launching and i decided to race change one of my toons into the very popular Zandalari troll and i wanted an look that screams primal voodooist
Might give up on my second Blacepholon for now, I don’t like how I can’t check its’ Hidden Power immediately because of the forced Rainbow Rocket thing starting and having to do a Battle Agency Battle for stupid Sophocles.
I hate that RR thing! I’ve had to do it 3 times

Favourite area in a Pokemon game in terms of aesthetics, atmosphere, etc?
Hmmmm
Probably Village Bridge in Bw/2
Its so relaxing and I remember searching for a Lapras there
Mt Coronet. The music and weather combined with the fear of impending doom are really nice. Those first few seconds of music are the best
I also love Eterna Forest and Malie City
Celestic Town
If I had to live in the Pokémon world I’d live there bar none
I love that place
Ice cavern from HGSS

And the new Ending song
Da f*ck is this?!

That Dragonair…
Why…. They could of given her at least a Dragonite… It looks so weirdly proportioned
That’s f*cking amazing, that’s what da f*ck that is. Wish we had this many options in the game. (And wish it was soaring)
I was more talking about the Dragonair
The rest look cool and would love, but that draginair looks unnatural
…I was talking about the Dragonair too. I wouldn’t say it’s disproportionate, dragonairs are 13′ long.
Those wings… I always thought it just flew by magical means like in the safari zone episode.
Maybe for long term flight it extends those wings.
Hmm I never thought of it that way
Really altaria looks weird to me. It thought it would be fluffier near the torso
Now that you mention it, it does look a little too little fluffy
Maybe those are magical wings?
well…their dex entries state they can fly despite having no visible wings and i guess they just added a little…dragonair flair…..i mean in the anime Electivire can extend their tails at greater lengths
That’s actually nothing new. In one of the first Pikachu shorts before the first or second movie they showed a Dragonair that did that too.
You’re right, I never knew it went that far back.
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1517432692997.png?__cf_waf_tk__=116228002LnwLTPgfvZw-9BykEaZMZO-n120
Yeah there it is. Must have been the second short then. Still an interesting thing they never used. They prolly could have given it Flying type too if they wanted .
I love watching the anime for this very reason! They show a pokemons innate abilities that the games sometimes don’t show.
Agreed
Maybe we’ll get more options for Charizard glide in future game? Like if the Pokemon is large enough and can fly you can use it as such. Togekiss would make an awesome ride pokemon in that aspect.
Soaring plz! If they put that much effort into it then maybe we can see it for more then 5 seconds
The correct answer is always Garchomp.
What’s the square root of 500
Garchomp.
Correct
MOTHERFUCKIN MARINA AMIIBOS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SINCE I WAS BORN OMG
Cool gen 3 pokemon, maybe i should give this game a chance because i havent played it since soft launch.
Holy crap Maple dat you?
It is I. @kuppo @earthenwarrior
Lol maple is that you
@ozymandis:disqus hands down Tropius! It’s so Caribbean with the banana tree vibe and I’m Caribbean so it’d fit nicely here.
SWEEEEEET

ILL TAKE TWENTY
I saw this posted on /v/…probably one of the worst fake leaks I’ve ever seen. Sorry, original artist, but I do like the design. They didn’t even post it in the right place…
http://i.4cdn.org/v/1518372244977.png
lol it’s a recolor of Ursaring
But it has all that leaves?
I think that’s the point. It’s probably a regional form of ursarang
You can really tell that that is not made by GF
That’s hot. One good thing that’s coming out of all the fake “confidential” art is that good artists are coming out of the woodwork to make some cool looking fakemons
The artwork is much too “Gen 2” artstyle to be considered legit. The coloring is off as well. Not a bad design though.
WHY THE HELL ARENT YOU ALL LOSING IT THAT THERE IS GOONA BE A MARINA AMIIBO
I didn’t know this and I don’t particularly care since I don’t have the cash free to spend on 14? dollar miniature statuettes.
But Cool. She’s Cool.
You gonna keep teeny Marina on you at all times?
Don’t really care
WELL YA SHOULD
Because I have better things to be excited about?
OH ARENT YOU SO HIGH AND MIGHTY WOOOOOOO
Same here
Sometimes I wonder why they even bothered making Misdreavus if they weren’t even going to give it to Morty.
Do you think there’ll be amiibos for Pokemon Switch? Maybe they could give you a Mythical with perfect comp stats or Stacks of all Balls or something like that
Absolutely. I would expect marketing to be out in full force, unlike USUM. This is a big step for the franchise and they’re going to want everyone to know
Well I’m just gonna say it, I ate special dog kibble at this organic superstore and it was delicious
I’ll just assume it was made out of Dogs
It’s like little puffs that you give as a treat and I just pocketed a handful for my pig and popped one in out of curiosity and it was freakin delicious
I know what Dog Kibble is, I’m just assuming the Special Kibble you ate was made out of dogs (that”s why it tasted deliious)

Earthen’s new addiction
One of many
I just had a thought… if Pokemon switch is a totally core Pokémon game like full fledged gen 8 how would multiple profiles on the switch work?
Multiple saves, no?
Does not compute it feels wrong and totally exploitable
They might find a way to prohibit them.
That’s dumb
I wonder that myself. Personally I hope they let us have multiple saves because of it lol
So I just found out hooters gives out free wings to singles on Valentine’s Day is you bring a picture of your ex. They shred the picture and give you 10 free wings……..I now wish I had at least one picture of my ex lol would be oddly satisfying seeing her picture get shredded and getting free wings for it 🤣
