Terrible trio. Ground has no weaknesses.
Godammit guys where the fuck can i actually buy real Pokemon Carts. Ebay is filled with fakes this is the 2nd time i got tricked, I cannot find any site that'll sell old Pokemon GBA games.

Oh shit whoops

Real the description next time. Look for the word "official" and "legit".
Or buy a ds emulator and emulate gba games.
Then you don't have to worry about corrupt files.
>>25603892
Don't you have any pawn shops around, usually those are chock full of pokemon carts
What are some funny names you've given to your character over the years?

Is Sceptile popular now? He seems to be popping up more often.
>>25603015
Sceptile is cute
>>25603015
They decided to make it the Hoenn's Charizard since kids don't seem to like Blaziken that much despite how fucking op it is.
>>25603015
I think it's kind of interesting since Sceptile was by far the least popular during gen III.
Given that whenever an item is used, it is always used before any pokémon move, regardless of speed, does that mean humans are the creatures with the highest base speed stat in the Pokémon universe?
Also, what was the deal with this guy? Was he a concept that never really went anywhere?
>>25603534
Clearly a team rocket member
No, because usually you need to tell the pokemon to use the move, then the one that reacts to the command first goes first. Since you don't need to command yourself to use an item, you just do it, you can skip that step.
Before we talked about Munna, now today it's all about Gen 5's regional birdmon Pidove and it's evos Tranquil and Unfezant.
My thoughts: Not a big fan of Pidove. It is arguably the most realistic looking Pokemon to date. It literally looks like a pidgeon (moreso than pidgey ironically). Tranquil is meh, but I do like the design of Unfezant, especially with its serial dimorphism.
Usable wise, I noticed two things wrong with Unfezant:
1. It came after Staraptor
2. Its stats make it a decent attacker, but it has mostly special moves.
Other than...

Tranquil is an ugly, boring and overall shitty design. The others are alright, I like male Unfezant.
it should have been a special attacker
I remember being upset when Pidove was first revealed because its silhouette was so similar to Starly's, and things just kept going downhill from there.

He actually posted it, the madman. So epic :,)
Alright, can we cut the shit for a second and talk about X/Y? Now here me out. I've been replaying this game. I'm a little biased. I'm otherwised prepare to argue that this is one of the better games in the series. Up there with Emerald and HG/SS.
> The literally incredible variety of Pokemon.
On the way to Cyllage city I caught a honedge, bagon, absol, an aerodactyl and a tyrunt. On occasion I don't catch that many Pokemon in a game.

I agree for the most part. The brainless AI is a bother, but XY had so much going for it. It was fun and visually stunning and comfy. Laverre is one of the best cities ever done.
The only thing I think is truly bad about XY is that the pacing falls apart after getting the mega bracelet. Everything up to Korrina's third battle is good, but after that it's just a gym after gym marathon with little worldbuilding. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the point where they started rushing it.
X/Y were great games. The visuals and the music made it feel like an adventure. I also loved the pokemon distribution throughout the region. I spent a lot of time trying to catch them all in each route. Team building was easier which is nice. I think it's just the /vp/ meme to hate gen 6, but give it a few months after s&m and they'll probably want to go back again like gen 5.

Zygarde forms situation is similar to Lucario's situation.
-Lucario was revealed way long before DP release, its got its own movie and it appeared in TCG already in 2005
-Zygarde formes were revealed a year before Sun and Moon, Zygarde got its entire anime season (and will appear in movie - at least dog is confirmed) and just now they made it nto the TCG.
We all though Zygarde forms will be gen 6 but in fact they were the first gen 7 forms. We also had that in the past: Kanto was continued in gen 2, Regis got their master, Regigigas in gen 4, Mewtwo got...

That's too bad, zygarde looks like shit
>>25600859
Isn't Zygarde supposed to be a protector of ecosystems or something? If so it'd actually make a lot of sense for it to be relevant in a Hawaii-based region, Hawaii is very big on conservation because they have a lot of problems with invasive species and other things.
>>25601111
I think the most important fact is that there was no game release since the reveal of Zygarde forms and thats why we cant say they were forgotten or anything. We dont even know what Sun and Moon will be about
i found a numal a killed it !!!!
you found a numal a killed it ????
ok
edgy
Sun/Moon are going to take place forty years before Red/Blue.
Like B2W2 being Game Freak's first sequels, Sun/Moon will be the first official prequels. Notice the exact same Orange/Blue color scheme is the shared with B2W2.
Your rival is young Sam Oak, and the events of Sun/Moon lead into what will become GenWun. This also ties in with Magearna, whom is based off the antique PokeBall as seen in M04.
The meteorite from space in Gen V is a direct hint at the legendary Pokemon for Sun/Moon.
The mask of the ancient tribe looks like the unknown artifact...

Nice fan fiction.

>Pokemon GO stands for "G-O," as in Geo, the Earth. Sun/Moon/Earth
>mfw that's actually a cool connection
I like it, but it's too good to be true. Also no proof, pics, etc., etc. Unless this is just a straight-up prediction.
>sun/moon introduce two held item slots instead of one
>one item must be non-consumable while the other must be consumable
How does this change the meta?
>sun/moon introduce in-battle evolution
>sun/moon introduce devolution and evolution trees for all new mons
How does this change the meta?
>>25600344
in battle evolution = megas, your post is retarded.

Uh, everyone takes a berry now on top of their normal shit. wouldnt mind, gives me a free paralyze/ confuse cure

how do it change meta guys.??
