Woof woof! Happy year of the dog!
From now until February 17th catching Eevee, Poochyena, Growlithe, Snubbull and Electrike will grant you bonus stardust, and reports of Shiny Poochyena are starting to pour in!
In addition, Team Rocket and Team Rainbow Rocket Grunt outfits, from the original games and Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon respectively, are now available for purchase – each full outfit can be bought in pieces, but costs 950 PokeCoins total. Further more, due to server issues earlier today, the Valentine’s Day event has been extended until February 16th.
Sounds like the best time to get out an GO, wear your auspicious colors, and try your luck!
QUESTION OF THE DAY:
Which evil team, across all main and spin off games, has the best uniform?












And much as I like Slurpuff, I think I’d prefer this
https://beezah.deviantart.com/art/Swirlix-and-The-Ultimate-Sparkle-Dog-659393751
I much prefer Slurpuff over Aromatisse……That thing is nasty….
Aromatisse sucks, it would be much better as a Fairy/Poison Plauge Doctor
100% They could have even kept the “pretty” thing, but what they gave us was just trash
I probably won’t add them to my FakeDex, but I’m working on fakemon evos for Aromatisse and Slurpuff
as with all fairies, kill em all i say
Nah most Fairies are cool with me
no such thing
Always sipping on your haterade
Its always in me
This is a new supposed leak from someone doing translation for switch games:
https://boards.4chan.org/vp/thread/34906895
Info:
>Battle “arena” with exclusive items
>Regional dish Kottu is spicy
>Region is island or pinensula named Meania
>Grass type “snorlax” that people make fun of
>Some type of collecting element
>Jungle boy named Silvan is timid and probably manipulated by the villains
>Not unreasonable to be released late 2018, announced in March
>Starters described as follows:
” I heard females have bigger ears ” , ” You can tell it has fire in its eyes ” . ” I always get confused… Is it its real face? “
sounds pretty fake, even tho interesting
This guy is incredibly detailed. If he’s fake then he’s keeping track of his Sh!t. Assuming it’s the same person from last week he’s either telling the truth or the guy made sure to write down notes to keep up the charade. How he describes it is a lot like how I’ve heard translation teams work. Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if this turns out real. If not then gotta give the guy props.
But he gave too many info about himself and what he does and has done in the past, so don’t know…
This sounds kinda credible. Not too outlandish
Reminder Smeargle is apparently a dog too.
You didn’t know that?
I knew, it’s just so weird.
Lufffy’s Gear 4th Snakeman mode is basically Kid Cobra from arms hahaha
Spoilers much? Not but really I am quite far behind.
How far behind? And sorry didn’t mean to spoil lol
Also it’s not exactly like Kid Cobra. I was mostly joking
End of Dressrosa arc, around activating Gear 4th.
Ah cool Things get crazy. Again sorry didn’t mean to spoil. Honestly what I said barely counts as it’s not exactly like what I said.
It’s OK, you didn’t really say much. Gear 4th looks weird, kind of reminds me of Nightmare Luffy.
Yeah it’s a very weird gear. It’s not my favorite, but it certainly is cool
You know you live in the country when you go to take your neighbors their mail and this happens https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/39323ba3956a2f5c44f87532f521fcd8ffae2b6e7875177985412df57b0fbf75.jpg
What happened? The horses making fun of you or something? haha
Wouldn’t shock me at all lol was shocked by it. It’s like they were greeting me 😂
You catch the pony vibe?
If by that you mean I was greeted by horses then yes lol
Sup Horses? They are just chillin
So for the first time in like a month I started playing splatoon again. Already having a lot of fun! For those who play what weapons do you like best? Personally I am a fan of the daulies
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/94a374bccff74e9cc88742aa05db23e03f04d8d2b0d30011351db3c1c0d36ae3.jpg
I like the Splattershot
The splattershot is a pretty good weapon I will admit! My least favorite has to be the the charger weapons. Probably just need to practice with them though
I don’t like the snipers….Just too hard to get splats and ink the field at the same time
Agreed 100 percent. That said don’t mind having people on my team with it! I personally want something that can shoot fast and somewhat hard. Exactly why I love the daulies
Roller
Who would of guessed
Horses or Ocean Sunfish?
Horses! What is the question
Wait Rapidash vs Sharpedo?
Worst Designed Animals.
Niether of them
Amoebas are gross
Obviously it’s the the sunfish…i mean arnt they the magikarp of our world?
no, Magikarp at least turn into Gyarados starting at level 20.
True 🤣
It’s “Was Classified as Plankton” vs “Doing the thing they’re designed to do can kill them”
Isn’t the only reason that they’re still around do to the fact that that they lay a ton of eggs and don’t really taste that good at least to humans.
Yes.
don’t know about that second one though.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7fc3c3c35902c9992348af8b577954af7e51cc4324755833bd132f51effec2c8.png https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7ac5e712a0cef59b3a12f8b4a3e9c2af96ccb9259500879346ef5bf803bd0279.jpg
They should really make a proper sunfish pokemon and have it be all types of useless.
Alolamola
No more useless than that like if you thought magikarp was bad imagine that but with no evolution and a crappie ability
Ocean Stunfisk
New form confirmed
You forgot…
http://static3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130722144949/animalcrossing/images/8/8f/OceanSunfishNL.png
Combine them
Ocean Horfish
What’s wrong with horses
clopping
what
They are Not Well Designed Animals, Apparently.
Horses are magnificent
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3RWdamlUTU
Yes but they’re not good at the whole living thing apparently. Like a Cool-Looking but Deatdly-Car.
What are you talking about exactly?
Hatched these 2 shiny ‘mon today https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5065e0c7da51eb41b784c058aec2ebc162c169d6f951a85d94c631100ac7e64b.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/db199129205a84a5b4c947f823fb5e3319df600bb04ade818cb35f8d3fa82475.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cbb4cb07624a05db6bd88b6a66e3aa871f71169cd45213332b11a58ef07f6c28.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3a8db221110fd77cd1fbb3356d13945c2eb948ff3fca96a59a7736bfc77c3f56.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f2ffddc0dc1a4b077b475107abc6b35265a45e7120cb7c4de0382d2b78000bd3.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/97644b4ed0b28f4aae85f21db619e5b91f4bab9f0b74c662034cbe03e794bdd0.jpg
OMG CHESPIN SHINY SO NICE
Yeah, and I much prefer Shiny Chesnaught to regular.
i has both! i still have Sherman the shiny Chesnaught and that Hippowdon from ultra space
How did you get Chesnaught, breeding? My Hippo is in a Safari Ball which is nice.
Yep an accidental shiny my very first one
I was so amazed i nearly pissed myself, although with all those egg moves where will you add any use, otherwise those boring ass carbon copy sets
Earthquake
Stealth Rock
Slack off
Whirlwind
ugh boring
I put 4 egg moves on all my breeds where possible regardless of if I will use them or not. Slack Off is the main one on Hippo.
just another lame staller
always getting on my nerves
I thought you liked Hippowdon.
i do but i hate stallers every single one of them, mines a little different for carrying Rock Tomb (so many Charizards and Volcarona forfieted because of that)
I love the maroon on Chespin, it gives it an autumn-like feel
I love them both!!!!!!
two stone edges miss and a head smash…FML
RIP
Ouch
Well I got my DS and AS back so now I’m ready for my Nuzlocke
Now only one problem, what should me theme be for Nicknames?
Maybe a fruits and vegetables theme?
Clouds!
Clouds sounds cool, I’ll keep it in line for ideas
The theme sounds nice, considering it’s a tropical region. If you do go that route, what are your choices for your starter nicknames?
I think they would be (actually switching to plant mater of all kinds)
Treeko- Salad?
Torchic- Carrot or Redwood
Mudkip- Kelp
Torchic should be something hot and spicy like Habanero
Could be pirate related since Aqua are kinda piratey. Maybe a plant matter theme so you aren’t limited to just fruit and vegetables?
Nuzlocke…
Fruits and Vegetables theme….
Carrot and Peach… ;~;
What’s your favorite RR boss theme from USUM?
Maxie and Archie’s is lit af
Lysandre theme is amazing! Especially the opening!
Yeah that one is a close one for me, wish it had the shotgun part tho
Lysandre and Ghetsis
Lysander and Cyrus’s themes are my favs
Cyrus
Ok let’s go for the votes who do I pick for my starter
Treeko?
Torchic?
Mudkip?
MUDKIP MUDKIP MUDKIP
One vote for Mudkip it is
Which have you used least? Treecko or Mudkip are more likely to survive gym 1 depending what else you get.
Since Sapphire I have used all of them a ton
Mudkip though is my most used
Maybe use Treecko then, if you can hold off evolving until Lv 21.
Why level 21?
Giga Drain.
0.o good move
There’s Now a tie between the 3 (Someone on Amino voted)
Now we need a tie breaker
ughhhhhhhh this is getting close to 3 weeiks of SRing, i am this close to just buying silver or gold on my brother’s DS just so i can trade over another shiny Gyarados and merely glitching a second one but timid or modest……….seriously this wasn’t meant to take so long….i am spending all of my time LISTENING TO ILEX FOREST AND THE INTRO FOR 2 WEEKS THIS IS SO BLOODY HARD ARRGRGGGHHHH WHY AM I WORKING MYSELF INTO THE GROUND FOR SOMETHING THAT WON”T EVEN HAPPEN
Turn the sound off and do something else like watch something as you do it. You only need to look down as the battle starts to see if it’s shiny.
yeah and constantly hit A which is a chore, and may i remind its full odds thats a one in two million chance with no modifiers
It’s a tough one, I am not looking forward to it myself.
and the worst part is i can’t stop…….i just can’t stop….this is all i know……and all for what a Shiny Wimpod that may or may not ever come…..i bet Star isn’t toiling in eggs as we very speak so she can make good on her end of the deal……..and i still have the stupid Shiny Celebi i originally glitched sitting in my boxes but of course i was too stupid to remember the damn Nature modifier or the sheer fact i could’ve easily lied to her and said it was legit but nooooooo I just gotta be honest and sincere since i’m so effing nice and generous
You can still do the shiny glitch too in silver. I’m sure she appreciates your efforts and will make good on her end of the deal.
yeah but it kinda annoys me how much harder i’m working, she hasn’t mentioned once of actually MMing one, meanwhile i’ve spent all my free time doing this just for her
Maybe ask her? I wouldn’t want to speak for her.
HOLY EFFING XENU i didn’t get it and apparently SRing still adds to Activity Log and i’ve spent at least 90 hours SRing since my in-game is like only 16 hours and it says 113:45
Well the few votes I collected are in and my starter will be in Alpha Sapphire Nuzlocke is… (I included Amino in the voting too)
Treecko https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/328c8b5b734cc70b82fa69e0097f2e4d63086dbe089c38c8b94b2366e25557a7.gif
Good choice, fingers crossed it doesn’t die to a Wurmple.
Also the rules
-Before Pokeball encounters are discounted
-Latias is banned and will be boxed in the death pile immediately
Also should Elemental Fang Poochyena be discounted being as your sort of forced to battle it?
Oh and one other rule
-Cosplay Pikachu is also like Latias, but Castform will not be in that manner
It’s not that strong anyway so probably it’s fine.
Alright then
Not bad, I think Treecko will do you just fine for AS. And it also had so many additions in moves than back in Gen 3 so you’ll have fun with it.
Thanks
Celery will be a great team member I suppose
Does anyone wanna have a match on showdown with me?
tier?
Any tier that isn’t named OU or VGC
i guess UU or RU, granted i would be using a gimmick team
UU and RU it is then. What’s your username?
same as my username just with a cap E and W
what room are you in?
just use the find a user EarthenWarrior
doesnt matter youll just rage anyway
piss off
Well my Celery the Treecko is Lax natured… I can’t tell wether or not I should be happy
It lowers special defense but raises defense, it’s OK I guess. You might end up with a more mixed build anyway.
my very first Torchic in Sapphire was Lax
Every sonic and Mario character is a canonical Olympic level athlete
It depresses me that Venonat loses Compound Eyes upon evolution, I’m loving the Poison Powder+Supersonic combination so far in Omicron and after finding out it loses the ability it sucks.
Venonat is better than Venomoth. Shield Dust is good though.
Yeah. But I’ll still use a Venomoth regardless, I’ve always wanted to use one so losing the ability isn’t too bad.
It’s good, I just prefer Venonat by far https://78.media.tumblr.com/08a6d8523c80cba9b336b370e239895f/tumblr_ot8k9tFyXA1vpbs3jo1_1280.gif

Most adorable poison type imo
Same, with Bulbasaur, Poipole and the Nidorans not too far behind.
rong
https://pm1.narvii.com/6278/c266715a027c6e1462933aae1dd720d1fbeee6b9_hq.jpg
Well, Venomoth doesn’t have compound eyes physically. Who has it? Butterfree. It was supposed to evolve into Butterfree.
Pretty positive this guy just had his regular f@cking Ditto transform into a shiny Heracross……WTF man………. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9eec99cc1d8cfb349e17ebcde4f38935a8b808921cbea6d46e565665d0059f9d.jpg
“Who are you?”
“I’m you but somehow shinier.”
Like is this something that happens?!?!?! This is so freaking dumb……lol It’s dead now and I hope it stays dead. I’m gonna kill this scientist right after I get out of this battle. Just because he deserves it………(for the record murder is never right kids lol)
Idk, maybe it’s a bug? Otherwise the closest thing I’ve found that’s somewhat similar is this:
http://www.player.one/pokemon-gold-silver-virtual-console-3ds-glitch-shiny-ditto-gyarados-120341
I know this happened hours ago but all dittos in gen 2 transform into a Pokémon that’s pink. Happened to me with my growlithe and I am pretty sure growlithe doesn’t have a pink shiny
Oooooooh is that right? I didn’t know that!!! If it had been another of my Pokemon it turned into I wouldn’t have batted an eye , but the coloring was so close to shiny Heracross I was VERY confused. lol
Yeah I can understand why you would think that. It’s very close to the actual shiny color lol here’s an example! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/191a715fedc8e65350824e612ee197e9d29e5c2485fa9b870a817d2f081095b9.jpg
Well that makes me feel better about the whole thing hahaha Thanks for the info!
Real NI🅱️🅱️AS use focus sash + counter midnight lycanroc.
F@ck that scientist guy and F@ck his cheating Ditto
That ditto is a d*ck
100% 👍👊
ditto
Anyone else wanna catch these hands on showdown?
Almost had a F*CKING heart attack in this Nuzlocke
I got to the special elemental Fang Poochyena and the tail was pink oddly in the sprite when creeping up on it so I was freaking out that it could be a shiny (despite them being yellow)
It’s not Shiny though and now I’m disappointed
Game T̶r̶o̶l̶l̶ Freak at its finest
I honestly for a few mins was sweating, having rapid heart rate and shaking violently I got so excited
I think I got too overworked for a Shiny lol
The overworld sprites are never shiny. I got a few sneak shinies including a Ralts and it looked the same.
So either I was seeing things or my ds had a discoloration
Either way it sounds like a problem that will need to be adressed later
Might’ve been a time of day thing.
True knowing it was sunset
Sometimes I never take in the fact that I encounter a shiny, I’m so used to normal mons (don’t shiny hunt) that it doesn’t occur to me until 5 seconds later
At least Dogwood (what I named it) is Lonely natured with Thunder Fang
I would’ve gone with Wolfsbane.
Wolfsbane? Nevee heard of it
*never not nevee
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfsbane
That’s awful! I haven’t heard of discoloration in the grass before… Still sucks
I honestly thought Poochyena was a Pink shiny too lol
But then again it’d be a lot harder to let it go if it died (it would be in the box till I beat the game then I could send it up to Gen.7)
I was repaid with Ralts as my fourth team member
Guys……this is gonna eat me up inside…..I don’t usually get this annoyed by Pokemon, but I’m pretty pissed off right now hahaha
welcome to my world. Gent i’m gonna level with you, i am angry at least 80% of my day and pokemon is often the culprit
That’s incredibly frustrating….hahaha I’m gonna get over this somehow, but you NEED to get over your sh!t lol
yeah you can’t
trust me
We’ll both shake it off, just GF messing with our heads
*deep breathing*
http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/001/201/873/d00.gif
How I feel…..or how I want to feel? Idk anymore…..What is life? lol
You’re not thinking about it anymore, goal achieved.
Thanks m8 lol
it is but a insignificant turd swirling down the septic tank of life, the tank being the planet, the piss being the oceans, turds the continents and the thousands of bacteria people
what happened?
Look down below………
OH GOD THAT IS AWFUL THE WORST RANDOM SHINY BESIDES WALLY
IT DOESN’T EVEN MAKE ANY SENSE!!! It was a regular Ditto he had!! hahaha
It is gamefreak way of trolling us
Also maybe check the GS sprites to see if there was a color change… maybe they forgot to swap
It should be dark blue like mine is…..
