Why is Grass such ass?
Because Gamefreak can't into balance.
>>24592551
It's not. TPC and Game Freak just ignore it because the majority of the fanbase is made up of kids who are more easily attracted to fire-types.

>lots of defensive, recovery, and support moves
>but lots of weaknesses that kill them in 1 hit
>lots of status inflicting moves
>but usually somewhat inaccurate and grass types are too slow to get the first hit
Maybe if Spore went to more grass types they'd be more popular. As it stands pure grass is a horrible type. Mega Venusaur got lucky as a defensive behemoth with Thick Fat.

That's weird, I don't remember running into any of those things while playing the game.

I've seen lots of shit in AG. Something that struck me is that low ladder is that shitters run Aerial Ace on everything for whatever fucking reason. I really don't get why. Same goes for Brick Break to a lesser extent.
Dexnav chains works? Best shiny hunt method for OR/AZ?I really liked Poke-radar...
I got up to almost 200 pikachu and didn't encounter any shinies, maybe I just had bad luck? Everyone seems to swear Dexnav chains work though
It works, but the odds remain very limitated. Used in pair with a shiny charm, tho, it increases significantly the chances of finding a shiny.
Pack your shit, anon, and catch'em all.
>The data shows that chain length DOES NOT matter -- it's a misnomer to call this "chaining" at all.
>The data shows that search level DOES NOT matter, either.
>The only thing that matters is using DexNav search in the first place, because it increases your shiny chance in general (the same way the Friend Safari does in XY).

Is this true? Where is dataminers...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Anyone else sick of being the special snowflake in the new games? The chosen one or what have you. I miss being just some random kid that got a Pokemon and got good through training.
I don't know how, in 2015, any writer STILL thinks that "the chosen one" is a good idea.
>>24592223
I want to be a random adult, I'm sick of playing as a kid.
>>24592223
You were the "chosen" one since gen I. Ten year old trainer defeating the entire crime sindicate on his own? Think again
>>24592223
Find another game to play instead of complaining

PP draining move when?
>Spite
>Grudge
>>24592153
that's not what i meant, i meant something like Giga Drain but for PPs
>>24592153
Grudge requires the pokemon to die , adding to the list you have pressure ability
but yeah that's about it
Template Thread. I lost pretty much all I had so lets post and share templates!
dumping what i have
>Champion is the only NPC in Gen 6 with 6 pokemon
why did this game become ultra casual?
>>24591797
Magikarp guy, Pokemon breeders, Elite 4 rematches in ORAS, Wally rematch in ORAS, Serena/Calem battle in XY,
git gud
>>24591802
>NPC
>>24591807
I don't think you know what NPC means.
>tfw the new game will be called PokémonAshversion
>>24591791
great, finally
>>24591791
Day one purchase.
That was a thing though, it was called Yellow
Still no release date for GO
Still no release date for Pokken
Still no release date for SMD in Europe and Australia
Still no announcement for Zygarde game
Why are they pushing everything into 2016 when at least three of their games should come out in early 2016 (SMD in Europe, Pokken and GO). They should announce the dates soon
We have CoroCoro, Masuda in Pokenchi very soon and most likely Nintendo Direct rather soon aswell. Will they reveal the release dates finally? At least like one of them?
And hopefully announce Zygarde game or at least tease it more?
>>24591747
Your answer is: The Nintendo NX.
Thank you. Please visit /vp/ again soon!
>>24591782
None of those games is on NX. Are you retarded?
Pokken is WiiU
GO is smartphones
SMD is 3DS/2DS
Zygarde game obviously will be 3DS/2DS aswell
pokken is mid/possibly late in the year and GO is TBA, there is no reason to expect release dates so soon. Zygarde game is being announced early next year like every other main game, that's been obvious for months
>>24591782
what is it about the NX that's made every retard suddenly think every current gen game is going to be transferred over to it? Nintendo also never releases their consoles so soon after its announcement so it will 99% be a 2017 release which is a long way away
Pic unrelated. I've never played any Pokemon games past gen 3 and I'm just wondering if they're worth playing.
If you've played Gen 2-3, you've played them all.
>>24591571
Wh have this thread everyday. Just play the fucking games you kuk
fuck blissey
most fucking annoying pokemon
it just draws the battle on for an extra 10 minutes and takes away a spot from your team
>mfw blissey
>>24591457
True stall may be a legitimate strategy but it's annoying as fuck and there's no point in playing it, with or against. Just fucking go do something else for 100 turns,
This is why we use physical attackers and Psyshock, OP.
does this image trigger you OP?
Which Sinnoh starter gets the mega evo dragon job?
>>24591333
None. The ones that might get it are Feraligatr and Serperior. Thats it

How do you know?
Hi /vp/
I'm trying to catch a Frogadier with its hidden ability, but I have no Friend Safaris that have it. I also have no idea what's in my Friend Safari.
Do you have Frogadier in your Friend Safari? If so, we can exchange Friend Codes and you can find out what I've got that might interest you!
I know no other way for me to get my Protean Greninja. If you know of a way for me to get it and could offer advice, I'd appreciate that as well.
Thanks
Also please let me know if I'm asking this in the wrong place and if there's somewhere better for me to take this
>I know no other way for me to get my Protean Greninja
You could inject it ;^)
Go on wonder trade for a few minutes.
>XY&Z Anime
>Tretta Z
>Z and Zygarde Merchandising out the ass
>XY Manga nearing it's end
>Green looking for "Z"
>Red and Blue in ORAS manga
Why are you guys still in denial we're getting Z and Kanto Remakes?
>>24590871
I hope so anon, I hope so
Also I didn't know green was in the xy manga, that's pretty cool since the games say Gary was in Kalos
>thinking that the manga of all things is an indicator of Kanto remakes
bait out of 10 desu
