Number of people who have played each format on the ORAS Battle Spot ladder last season (2 month period):
>Singles: 114,089
>Doubles: 32,651
>Triples: 6,692
>Rotation: 2,912
Should Rotation battles be dropped? I think it's clear that it's been a flop on a competitive level and it barely even exists in-game in gen 6. Triples at least has a somewhat active playerbase and is really...

don't worry fag, battle royale will replace rotation
Rotation is my favorite, I don't even know if I lost a battle once.
>>26777262
once again proving that popularity doesn't = quality
Doubles are the superior format. It's amazing how one extra mon on either side adds so much depth. Singles is some babby tier shit in comparison, BUT it's the traditional format so it's always gonna be played a lot.
Triples are a disgrace to the franchise. There's too much shit happening at once for there to be any strategic merit. Also Matt Block is fucking retarded.
Rotations are the second best format. It's like playing...

Was going to buy a 3DS so I can finally enjoy Gen 6 and prepare for Gen 7 but then I found out it still costs 160€
Wtf Nintenjew, this shit came out 6 years ago
Fucking DS was only 100€
>>26777203
If you really wanted it you would spend the money.
Or do the smart thing and not buy it.
A 3DS is for $100 over here, but an N3DS is probably $200 in burger dollars.
get a 2ds
So what's the difference between Ho-oh and Rayquaza?
Rayquaza exists to quell Groudon and Kyogre when they fight and is implied to be master of the skies, since Groudon and Kyogre pull parallels to Behemoth and Leviathan, meaning Rayquaza must be Ziz. In the Wikipedia article for Ziz, it says:
>As Leviathan is the king of fishes, so the Ziz is appointed to rule over the birds.
Ho-oh, however, represents the sky as well. Taken from Bulbapedia:
>Lugia represents the sea, storms, and the color silver......

And what about Lugia versus Kyogre?
Ho-oh information
One Pokemon cannot watch the entire fucking sky. They take shifts
How are my teams? I really hope Sun/Moon has some good shit instead of the mostly boring stuff we got in Gen 6 (with some good exceptions).
Alakazam and Pidgeot/10
Pretty boring overall, they're all pretty similar and generic. Gen 6's dex was god tier, almost all new mons were great and it had a really good selection of older things.
>So many old gen Pokemon in teams
Having a Mega is understandable in XY, but why not use more Pokemon in their own generation?
>>26776908
>Implying your original teams from when you were a child wasn't just your overleveled starter and 5 shitmons
find a flaw
he isn't farting on my dick right this second
50% male
>>26776806
Not female
Would you like to make a contract?
>>26776245
No, fuck off you stupid fairy.
The only contract I'll be making is to pay for cleaning your bloodstain off the street.
Has Aoi Yuki ever stated her reaction to Sylveon?and more importantly will Iris ever return to react to Fairy-types?
I really want to use pokemon like scizor and ferrothorn, since I love their designs and typing...but the x4 weakness to fire fucking kills them both. What can I add to my team that's good against fire types? preferably something that's a steel type too...is empoleon good for a kinda-but-not-really competitive team that's steel only?
no
not taking the bait, not this time
>>26776214
>Steel-only
C'mon. You know what the answer is but you will simply say 'I hate it'.Heatran
>>26776221
>>26776226
what the hell are you guys blabbering about? I'm not memeing or baiting I'm just asking a question.
Also I can't use heatran, he's considered a legendary and I'm not comfortable with using those in a team
The coast is clear, no fairies in sight. Post dragons.
>>26776072
But how could we possibly have a Dragon thread without cutest pairing, Anon?
boo
Anon, help!!!
Sun and Moon comes out in 5 months and all of our 21 pokemons aren't good enough to be in the next smash game as a rep of gen 7, help us design one!
Just use Ballio
>>26775936
Grubbin for smash
>>26775949
Will Popplio's real final stage be as much of a bro as Ballio/Pinnister?
Do you think he was talking about the man-made island? Either way, not battle maison copy paste confirmed
>>26775496
I think he was talking about the battle royal stadium if anything
>>26775507
Is that an actual in game place or is it just a vague stadium like the gen vi multiplayer stadium? They'd have to be talking about a physical place in the game to say something like that
>has a beak
>instead of its mouth being the beak, has a separate mouth on its neck
why is this pokemons design so fucking retarded?
>>26775418
It's a luchadore inspired Pokemon
Something something aztec eagle warriors, something something luchador mask not an actual bird head. At least that's what its fans will tell you.
Lucario has the exact same problem and no excuse.
>>26775418
it's a luchador (wrestler). The mask is part of the costume. It's hollow; that's why there is that black stuff next to his eye.
So i have some information about the new games
My english isn't the best so forgive me about errors
The secret the starters and iwanko share is fusion. They can fuse in battle and stay fused only a few turns. An object is needed for fusion and the more upgraded it is, the longer the pokemons stay fused. I don't know how you level is up though
Rowlet/iwanko is like a griffon
Popplio/iwanko looks like some sort of capricorn, but no horns
I haven't seen litten/iwanko
You have another rival who takes the stronger starter. They didn't...

Final evos of the starters, what are they all like?
>>26775412
why do you even try
>>26775412
Also, I'm calling 100% legitimacy on this.
Fairy type is now super effective (100% accuracy OHKO to be precise) against ALL types, as well as being immune to ALL types (so Fairy can't hurt Fairy).
How much BETTER does this make pokemon?
>>26775312
>have as much pp as you possibly can on your pokemon
>boost defense
>oponent dies to struggle
literally the dumbest idea anyone has ever had
also, fuck off
>Confuse Ray
>Fairy kills itself
Playing through Soul Silver for the first time, anything I should know? Posting this mainly because I heard bad things about the level curve and don't want to end up challenging the Elite Four with Pokemon in their mid-30s or something like that.
Depends on your starter.
>Chikorita
Hard mode, also the patrician's choice. Anyone who rolls with Chikorita knows what they're doing and shouldn't be fucked with. Steamrolled Whitney.
>Totadile
Normal mode. Decent tastes, had an okay time with Whitney
>Cyndaquil
Easy mode. Used Ember on everything and probably only leveled their starter. Got stomped by Whitney because she's casual filter.
Anyway OP, if you're having leveling problems, just...

>>26775326
Totadile is the easiest starter for HGSS because of the physical split, and if you have trouble with Whitney you're probably retarded since you could just trade for the Machamp or catch a Nidoran right next to the gym
I've been trying to get a working rom of HGSS for years now, with no luck. I even tried the gameshark codes for desmume, still not working.
Amazing come from behind moments.
