Whomp UpdateHey kid! I see you there with that "gotta catch 'em all" look in your eyes! I had that look once too, ya know. When I was a youngster like you, there were one hundred fifty one pocket monsters. We could carry that burden. Just like life, they added more and more to weigh down our tiny, weak shoulders. We didn't have no fire monkeys. We just had fire lizards, and god dangit, that made sense to us.
>>84418750
I know this feel. Stupid lack of RAM.
>>84418772
Try being in a metro area heavy with kids. I stopped after two days because they're running all over the area sweeping up the pokemon while summer is going.

I didn't think you could get more pathetic than playing Pokémon Go, but Ronnie always finds a way.

>letting yourself be used for collecting mapping data for google maps to play a game that takes out everything good about pokemon
The only reason it is popular is because google forced it onto everybody.
>>84418965
How exactly does playing it help in collecting mapping data?

I'm more inclined to believe it's a mix of nostalgia faggottry and actual children. Pokemon practically markets itself at this point.

I feel like he was on his way to making a good point in his alt text, but then dropped it at the end. You carry the burden but they just keep adding more and more until you can't take it any more and either collapse or go on a kill frenzy. Seems like that's happening a lot in this country lately, people just can't cope anymore and flip out.

>>84419968
You know all the people playing this game don't really care about pokemon. They say they were always with it, but a few years after the first gen they all said it was dumb and for kids. They only pretend to like it now, but can never name any pokemon past the first gen, they pretend that they cared, but google marketing and peer pressure is why normies want to play this "game" with no real battles, customization or anything that made the games good. Just something incredibly dumbed down for normies like angry birds or candy crush.
Pokémon had genius marketing that allowed it to sell two versions of games, a card game and an anime. The “Trading” element made Pokémon fans have more of a reason to hang out, as trading and fighting Pokémon became a catalyst for social interaction. This makes it have more importance to people and can lead to obsession and letting it define a person. It has always been using peer pressure as a form of marketing and you know it.

Makes me wonder why a formal Pokemon MMO never came out but Nintendo has always been weird about not harvesting internet dosh.
>>84420266
But they all bullied me when I still liked pokemon, they told me I was gay and childish. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT POKEMAAAAN
Multiple people can catch the same instance of Pokemon, though they vary in CP
>>84420287
Because contrary to popular normie belief, Pokemon can't just be slapped into a generic MMO formula and automatically be good.
>>84420325
Not in a cash grab as cynical as Go, no. But a formal AAA studio effort seems like it'd fucking annihilate the market. Not like WoW's getting any fresher past the Legion release bump.

This.
ES wasn't a good fit for the MMO style and neither is Pokémon. Look at any of the existing fan MMOs that fry to implement more social features. They're all a mess. I honestly can't imagine a AAA PokéMMO fairing any better.
>>84420462
Just because you're a shut-in doesn't mean it didn't have a huge buzz about it. It's been huge news in the gaming community, the Pokémon community, and has even been shared heavily on social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter.

>>84425097
Yeah, it's all based around data gathered from Ingress, a previous AR game by the same company. Geographic location, weather, and time of day can play a part. The stadium was one of the biggest landmarks in the area so rarer pokemon spawn there. Water pokemon near water, fire types in mountainous areas, electric types in cities (I think, I'm unclear on that) and bug and grass types in rural areas. Ghost types come out at night. There's some random stuff though.

>>84426502
Pokemon go rapes your phone. Looking at Forbes tells me that pokemon go can send/read your email, use your private photos, knows all of your browser history, your every location you go to, and so forth. All of this is now in the power of some shitty little company that usually makes knockoffs tier stuff and depends on them to resist the temptation of not selling off a literal goldmine or just plain fucking with it.
>>84426090

>>84426167
You can emulate on VBA-link, I think. It's a mod of Virtual (Visual?) Boy Advance that allows for link cable action, and I'm pretty sure can emulate GB games as well as GBA games.
>>84430732
For this to work would I still need a cable of some kind?
>>84430750
Look into emulation. It all runs on your PC, all you need is the emulator and the ROM of the game you want to play. In the case of pokemon, you would still need to play both games to the point of the version exclusive pokemon, then use the VBA link function in emulator to trade the pokemon across games. The function is built into the emulator, so just running 2 instances of it I think is all that is necessary.
>>84430833
Man, that's actually pretty cool.
Guess that means there's no point in me just emulating Crystal to get all the pokemon in Silver and Gold then.
Also, assuming I want to play Silver and Gold, is it better to go with the originals, or can I emulate the updated versions?
>>84431042
You can emulate the new versions, but I don't think a NDS emulator has link function, so you'd miss out on version exclusives. NDS emulation has come a long way recently, but it still has some stability issues, so if you want link and trade, it's best to stick with the originals.
>>84431099
Alright, sounds good. I wasn't worried about the version exclusives so much as trade-only evolutions, like Steelix or Gengar.
>>84420492
I hate phones too, but grow up and tell them to fuck off.
>>84431121
You can always go with a ROMhack that has it made so you can get them all without trading.

>>84425758
>>84425908
You know anyone who shows up at least has a good phone, and probably a car. That's kinda brilliant.
>>84426087
It's more to go outside at night, or to certain places at all. It's not something specific to the game.
>>84430381
They shouldn't. This is evolution finally effecting the human genome again. It's good for us.
>>84430833
There are emulators that run on phones, too. Gameboys and NDSs are not powerful machines.
>>84428606
Android is 100% tracking spyware anyway. There's no secure platform to play this game on. Best to use a separate phone for games with a separate account that never touches your real stuff.
>>84419042
The game is mapping foot traffic activity: to whit: you walk, it charts where. By doing this, it's mapping the places accessible to pedestrians through your actions.
This is actually super useful for people in real life, because computer mapping software, in ye olde days, was only able to spit out what was written on paper maps, which was limited, first by named roads, then by satellite pictures.
So, us walking everywhere is actually going to make a map of pedestrian-friendly areas. This is vital, especially for places like state or national parks, where there are broad swaths of unmapped terrain that appears inaccessible to modern GPS. trying to navigate by GPS sucks balls when it assumes you are on a road that is separated from you by an impassable obstacle.
Don't be afraid. This is making the world better. As long as you don't go out and commit any felonies in pursuit of pokemon, you should be fine.
Seriously, leave your damn smart phone at home before you murder / move a body. GPS tracking is real if they have a warrant.
>>84430041
Then you deserve it for not taking measures against browser fingerprinting.
>>84430717
>>84431942
Sure. The main problem with emulation is not that the device is powerful, it's that the stability of the emulation is sometimes unacceptable. GBA and GB emulation is old as dirt, so there are quite a few good emulators out there, definitely good ones that run on a phone. NDS probably has some good ones too, as it's getting on in years now as well, but I've still found NDS is not as complete as GBA emulation.

Dude, Pokemon doesn't work as a MMO. Hell, it barely works as a straight competitive title, and only because we have informal rules applied from things like Smogon.
Just: okay, what would the point of being alongside other players in Pokemon be?
It's a turn-based battle system atit's core, and we know how well turn-based battles work in MMO land (spoiler, they haven't since Everquest). Also, it's one-on-one, mostly, so you don't need help dealing with large groups of enemies, and players have no specific skills of their own, only being able to use whatever six pokemon they have with them at any given time... What do you want to do MMO-wise with pokemon?
If it's for the immediacy of being able to battle other trainers: you can do that now with WiFi. If it's for the ability to make friends and trade pokemon: you can do that now with WiFi. There is seriously nothing that you really want to do in Pokemon as an MMO that you can't either already do in the existing game model or on the internet in your own time.
>>84427427

Pokemon Go seems to provide some keks
>>84419180
Well clearly Japan is going to use the data to take over the world. There is no other conclusion.
>>84419403
There are only 151 pokemon! ONLY 151 goddamnit!
>>84421616
Given the level of damage texting and driving causes every year it doesn't surprise me in the slightest.
But i thought GO was compatible with all smartphones, it's just that some get the message that it's not, even though it ishow long is GO gonna be as popular as it is now?
>>84430717
>>84439692
It's pokemon, so probably about 2 years tops.
And then they release for expansions for more things to do and hype goes up again.
>>84439692
I had to upgrade my Android version first. It still gives the incompatible message but runs fine

I've got a cheap ass metroPCS android phone, and it works just fine for me. Only problem is I can't into AR since I don't have a gyroscope on my phone. also

This is what I use. It doesn't play any games, it doesn't browse the internet, it's a phone. And given how seldom it's actually used, those occasional refills of minutes last for months.

Are people so childish and retarded nowadays because they repressed their childhoods?

She had a daughter with James though. It's canon

My phone does jack-shit apart from texts and calls. Fuck, I think that might actually be my piece of shit phone too.

Wait, it isn't?

There is a chart floating around somewhere. Golf courses have a 16% chance for dragons or something
>>84432462
>>84440430
No, it's Gen 2. The TV show usually shows off some pokemon a season in advance. I still hate how that went down in the show, Ash gets an extremely rare pokemon, and Misty muscles her way in front and it imprints on her.
>>84440395
>She had a daughter with James though. It's canon
If you mean headcanon maybe.
>>84440808
It actually happened in the manga. It's not that anon's headcanon.
>>84441264
>manga
Which one? There's like 10+ different versions.
>>84441264
>manga
>not headcanon
See what this guy said
>>84441297
There's no definitive "manga" The anime has a separate canon and is the only one most people consider mattering.
>>84431213
The funny thing is that this isn't some bootleg shit, this is actually a serious novel about a guy obsessed with numbers. The pokemon are there because his girlfriend is a pokefag that has the hobby of comparing people to specific pokemon. The Rayquaza is a FSB colonel.
>>84441297
>>84440808
and theyre all canon
>>84441600
It took me 10 seconds to realize that's Jesse on the bottom and James on top. I thought that was James on the bottom and I have no fucking clue on top.
>>84441297
Electric Tale of Pikachu. It's fucking nothing though since it's just that one single page >>84441600 so don't bother getting your hopes high.
>>84441600
You're right, they're all canon. The same way DBM is canon. It has it's own timeline unique to it. However Earth-1 it's events never happened. You get me?
>>84435640
I actually don't. I own one for emergencies, but I only ever take it with me to work, and generally keep it switched off. I realize it can still report my movements while 'off', but I just apply basic OPSEC with the thing. I'd flash it to Cyanogenmod, but spending time fucking with the thing at all disgusts me.
>>84441600
>this fucking mangaka
It's very possible that it's Jessie giving James the dick and she just gained weight.
>>84441562
They're all canon. The anime is its own continuity, but they're all canon. I thought /co/ of all people would know that.
>>84441670
Yeah, I mentioned the anime has separate canon, which is what we're discussing, so James and Jesse getting married has the same effect on the only canon that matters as palcomix.
>>84439421
The best thing is making up rumors about it. Like that time a kid was chasing a Ghastly, and caught some drunk teenagers having sex. They gave him beer and raped him.
>>84441711
And that was just Pokemon Red! Imagine nowadays!
>>84440341
You should feel like a fag. Gen III was shit.
>>84441660
someone said they fucked, some other guy said he was retarded, and I just posted something stating otherwise. its already given that almost every manga has its own universe and the only constant among them all is that Red is the best
To me the franchise is all about Ash's Mom, and then some other characters and some pokemons.
>>84441264
Which manga? There's like 5 continuities now, not counting time travel stuff.
>>84441753
She is property of Mr. Mime though
>>84441746
Whatever's the case, you have to admit that Ash/Jessie is still a good and rather constant ship that has /ss/, femdom, bad girl and all sorts of hot stuff going for it. Jessie/James is vanilla as fuck, and they don't even have sexual chemistry, they just seem like family at this point, as in siblings.
>>84441838
I prefer the mirror world where theyre vigilante heros
>>84441838
>ss
She's only 16.
>femdom
Ash could kick her ass in or out of pokemon battle.
>bad girl
Thievery aside, Jessie is rather innocent.
>>84439415
>I hope he does so he finds out exactly how far the legal definition of "defend" stretches.
You can shoot trespassers as long as no trespassing sign is posted in this state
>>84441875
Even kids?
>>84441660
Yes, and? It changed fucking nothing. Canon is canon. Different timelines was never the issue in the first place. Nobody was arguing about continuities in the first place. Original post just said >>84440395
>She had a daughter with James though. It's canon
That's it. Another post provided the context that it's from a manga. Again, that's it. Nobody said one is more valid over the other. YOU were the one who went pissy about it. Face it, you back peddled hard when you got proven wrong and now you're still trying to argue about how one continuity matters over the other even when again, that was never what people were giving a shit about in the first place.
>You get me?
That you're just starting up shit and arguing about crap that people weren't bothered about? Got it.
>>84441746
This.
>>84420203
> cause of death likely accidental drowning.
He too wanted the water pokemans
>>84439942
This is life in general. In highschool, everyone is obsessed with trying to be cool or fit in, as you're basically trapped in a sort of social prison, but once you become an adult, you can pretty much go wherever and do whatever.
>>84441870
>16
By which canon? Maybe she started out as that, but she feels a lot more mature now. By contrast, she never quite felt like a teen, more like a twenty-something who missed out on a lot of stuff as a kid.
>kick her ass
She's larger and more assertive, Ash is supposed to be 10 for fuck's sake.
>innocent
Not what I mean, her image is that of a rogue, she doesn't need to be a heinous criminal for this to work.
What I'm leaning towards is a Rogue/Tails doujin kind of thing.

I'm not the one starting up shit, anyone who brings up shipping is. You're an idiot if you're really bringing anything manga into a pokemon discussion.

You fucking faggot baby assholes.

>>84443266

>>84443401
True justice would be when that fat american get killed from oncoming traffic
>>84443401
I am sure those lazy ass fagets will just use location spoofers
>>84443559
You could conceivably spoof it with the real coordinates of a drone you pilot around your neighborhood, and get camera feedback to boot. That sounds like something my fat ass would actually do, if it didn't require extra setup. I wonder if it'd be illegal to sell the service of setting that up for people on top of selling them drones.
>>84420160
>4 Charizards
>2 Charmeleons
How can somebody be so devoted to Pokemon and still have such terrible taste?
>>84443909
Just rent them the drones with that feature whilst taking a deposit for the drone
>>84444167
That would also eliminate the hassle of trying to set up drones people already own, but it would require investing in several drones to profit off of a brief craze, and possibly writing/having-written an app to facilitate it. I wonder if it can even be done on Android without root access.

>>84444302
I wonder why another monster catch/train/trading game never overtook it. There were some good contenders. I'd personally like to see a Personamon.
>>84444421
It actually does, but it's intent is to keep people on notice that they must act like adults on 4chyon. Which these days is not a huge requirement.
>>84444421
I grew up with the cartoon that said only 150 Pokemons exist and the 151st was a myth or something. So any cotradiction to that flares my autism a bit
However I dont give a shit about Pokemon much, Pokemon Go looks like fun till the fad lasts however short it may be
>>84444302
Most of the gen 2 pokemon were designed at the same time as gen 1. They had to cut it down to 150 because of data limitations.
>>84444613
It's not about the design, it's about the bait-and-switch
The whole idea was to learn about all 150 pokemon so you could catch and fight them effectively, and catching all 150 was the final and totally achievable goal.
Then they went NOPE ACTUALLY THERE'S ANOTHER HUNDRED OF EM KEK
ACTUALLY 200
NO 500
It's like running the 100 meter dash only to be told a few steps from the finish line that it's been changed to the 500.
