>people actually thought Pangoro would have 110/130/80/80/80/70 stats and be the premier fighting type
Jesus this was a real thing? Who thinks GF would give 550 BST to a random pokemon?
>>25607394
everypokemon needs to be ou senpai
>>25607394
People were too generous with base stats based off of in-game screenshots. The same people thought Clawitzer had 130 SpA and 100/100 defenses and Heliolisk 125 SpA/Speed

Everyday I thank God we didn't get that fucking rehash.
>implying any of this is a bad thing
I'd rather all of those replacements than Z.
I welcome a good new Mystery Dungeon over le third version of a game that was lackluster.
I welcome an interesting and much anticipated new spinoff over said game.
I welcome a whole new game with new Pokémon than said game, and if anyone would rather have Z than new Pokemon, there is genuinely something wrong with their heads.
Why do people make these? Why spongebob?
The official Pokken controller. Am I the only one... concerned by what I'm seeing?
>>25605795
>not using the wiimote
>>25605795
Concerned? Why?
It's just a simple controller. Looks comfy.
If you are you have never played a fighting game at even a mediocre level.
Fire Emblem
Mystery Dungeon x Animal Crossing when?
>>25605738
Probably Fire Emblem.
Talonflame now learns Brave Bird, how fucked is the meta?
Any tips for running specific items for Acrobatics? Right now I just mine naked.
>>25605654
Man I wish the Gems weren't removed. There was no reason for their removal if they were going to nerf them into 30% buffs
I guess you can try running some kind of berry if you're desperate. Does it get Sky Attack? Run it with that one herb that makes it one-turn and then Acrobatics the rest of the match

>magcargo exists
not at all
>krokorok backwards is krokorok
>>25605501
Try that again...
its not though you dullard
Korokork
Cork
Yeah
Critical hits are such a shitty mechanic who thought they would be a good idea? Any other absolutely retarded mechanics in pokemon?
>>25605472
Pokémon was never designed to be competitive. That's why things like Double Team, Moody, crits, and Swagger can and should exist. Those that try to make it into something it's not, like Smogon, are a bunch of butthurt autists.
>>25605512
I don't mind the others especially swagger but crits that aren't tied to a move or stat like how they were in gen 1 are so meaningless and boring. If they were fun/could be built around/had clear counters that weren't only found on mediocre mons I would be fine with them.
>>25605512
Well why not give the option to turn those things off like omega stages in smash bros. That was a great example of a competitive game still being willing to cater to casuals.
Mega Evolutions won't be a thing in Gen VII. Game Freak has an undeniable track record of bait, switch, and cuck. They did it with Pokemon walking behind you, they did it with the third games and post game content, they even fucking cucked the Zfags. And now, as the biggest blow to the balls, Game Freak is going to cuck the Megafags into oblivion.
Mega was Gen VI's meta gimmick, and in Gen VII, it's going to be replaced by some new bullshit. Watch.
You're an idiot.

Retard detected. Post disregarded. Suggestion for OP to kill himself made.
Pic related, of me.
I am so fucking pissed at all these people saying "oh xd i can't wait for gen 6.5 fags to be BTFO" GEN 6.5 IS REAL OKAY. WHY WOULD THEY NOT MAKE Z AFTER HAVING SO MUCH ZYGARDE STUFF IN THE ANIME?
You're all fucking degenerates who can't seem to understand that Gamefreak obviously isn't done with this gen.
Also, sun is the inferior version.
>>25605103
>>25605191
underrated post
>>25605103
I am not even going to post a pic of bait. This is too obvious for that.
>this is literally the only Ice-type Pokemon with an attacking stat and a speed stat of over 100
Why do Game Freak continue to make defensive Ice-types when it's such a poor defensive type?
>>25604891
>what is froslass
>what is cryogonal
>>25604912
>Froslass
>80 Attack
>80 Special Attack
>Cryogonal
>50 Attack
>95 Special Attack
That's not over 100.
>>25604912
80 base attacking stats
95 base special attack stat.
Check your numbers first buddy.
Pic unrelated
Is anyone else bored of actually playing Pokemon? I've been playing since Gold but the last games that I actually enjoyed played were PMD: Sky and Heart Gold.
I really tried to get into Black and X but no win. The breeding and competitive scene is just too dull for me.
>maybe it's really a kids' game
>maybe I'm getting old
>maybe my childhood is really over
>maybe I'm a casual
>>25604587
pic looks like a fucking ayyy lmao
>>25604587
no im not getting bored.
i stopped for a long time after pearl.
bought ORAS and its all a blast again after such a long time in between playing.
from what i read from im sure a self confessed sperg in another topic, im everything thats wrong with human consumer who decides to use some of that consumption on buying pokemon again after so many years.
I still play Maison while waiting for other shit.
I see a lot of threads about which is the worst Pokemon. You're all full of shit because there actually is a worst pokemon and it's Lumineon. It's just a normal fish. Nothing special about it. Nobody even used the thing. Nobody could even find the thing. This Pokemon looks like it was just made to fill space.
>>25604367
It's a very pretty fish.
>>25604367
Lumineon is pretty. Fuck off,gen V fag
>>25604367
They don't like the Eevee name
hey guys, I'm about to start black 2 as my first time in unova. I decided that I'm going to start with snivy and that I'm also going to grab a tynamo. but for the life of me I can't choose what else to use. what was your guy's first teams? any recommendation. I don't care about competitive. so pokemon that are just ok will be fine too.
>>25604205
I used an Eelektross in my first playthrough of White and it was incredibly underwhelming. Although maybe it will be better for you.
Also Darmanitan, Chandelure, Lilligant, Galvantula and Volcarona are all great in-game.
I'd suggest a Sandile, the whole line is pretty cool and powerful.
Also Venipede, best bug
I used Lucario, Krookodile, Sawsbuck, Galvantula, Chandelure, and Starmie on my first White 2 run.
Where do I get this?
>>25604192
You can't, that's fake. They better do something like that though.
>>25604249
Not OP, but are you sure it's not running homebrew?
I've seen some interesting hacks brought into the new VC release. EXP bar, different sprites, etc.
Shouldn't be too hard to swap out the GBC border, and run a Crystal.gbc file through the normal emulator.
>>25604321
Links to the RBY hacks please?
Hey /vp/ i have a question for you all.
Why does the majority here dislike X and Y.
I love them, first pokemon game i've played in like 4 years.
For that exact reason.
It's the game that attracted you casualfags back into the series, and it was fit for you because of how casual it really was. That's why you like it.
I'm not saying Pokemon games aren't casual, they all are. But some are less than others. And XY is the most.
>mfw casualfags still breathing my oxygen
>>25604209
I'm not casual.
Been there since generation 1, played everything until generation 5 BW1
It isn't my favorite game but i liked it as a step-in game.
ORAS sucked tough.
They were pretty mediocre (not good or bad) and had the same singleplayer stop every ten steps so npc can spoonfeed you gen V had
