So who here is watching the best Pokémon-related thing on youtube right now?
https://youtube.com/?#/watch?v=dCNnzEWy-1w
>What is this garbage and why should I care?
This is a show by the Easy Allies, the new youtube channel of the people who were formally responsible for gametrailers.com
Specifically, on this show Brandon Jones plays through Pokémon Red and Kyle Bosman interviews him about his experiences.
>So it's another Let's Play?
No, it is not a let's play. Brandon plays the game in his own time and then records one episode of the show with Kyle every week.
>Why would I want to watch a let's play where I don't even get to see what the player is doing?
Because this show is not about showing the gameplay of Pokémon Red, it's about the experience of somebody playing Pokémon for the first time.
>So this guy knows nothing about Pokémon.
That's right, Brandon Jones has never played a Pokémon game before, while Kyle Bosman who interviews him has pretty much played them all.
The most interesting part of this show for me is how many mistakes Brandon Jones makes while playing. He's a smart guy with lots of experience playing video games, but he gets lost all the time and gets really weird ideas about how things work and what he's supposed to do. Kyle Bosman does not correct him most of the time, so we get to see his mistakes play out like they would have for a new player 20 years ago with no one to explain the game to them. At the same time, Kyle Bosman asks very interesting questions about Brandons impressions of the game and what he is expecting to happen. I am calling this the best Pokémon-related youtube show right now, and I don't think I am overselling it.

Nice shilling, faggot.
How much do you make?

I do not appreciate that. Fuck off.
>>26193240
Not bad for a faggot
All trainer cards are shit. Fuck back to kindergarten kid.
Random, drunk and probably ignorant thought, but the Pokemon movies aren't canon, right?
>>26193238
They're just as canon as the anime itself.Answer: not canon
Rise of Darkrai is pure kino tbqh
They pick and chose what is canon. The first movie was tied in to the anime complete with Mewtwo making an appearance set before and after the movie.
I think ash used aura a couple times too.
>tfw XY hype was better than the games themselves
>tfw SM hype is the worst hype so far because the games practically don't exist
>>26193212
anon.... You're right.
>>26193212
Why do you come to /vp/ for hype? The board is at its worst at those times, you might as well go to r/Pokémon.
Still not worse than DP hype
Shuckle @ Binding Band
Ability: Contrary
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 6 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Infestation
- Rest
- Shell Smash
- Toxic
Would this work?
>>26193164
Shuckle's attack and speed are far too abysmal to utilize shell smash. It doesn't even have much to attack with.
>>26193191
In case you're serious, look at the ability.
>>26193164
Why not Sleep Talk instead of Toxic?
What animal do you most want to see a Sun and Moon starter based off?
Incoming owlshitters
The perfect bait for owlfags. Watch as this thread will be flooded in underage autists in a matter of minutes.
I'm fine with an owl for grass. I don't think it'll be the shitpost owl that's been here in vp though.
Same for the fire starter. I think it'll be a cat that evolves into a tiger.
I want a squid for water but I doubt it'll happen.

>>26193145
I dont..
What?
Too bad it's all mine
>Ban all Legendaries
>Alternatively ban only Ubers, Genies, Cresselia and Heatran and limit others to 1 per team
>Reduce Dark Void Accuracy to 60
>Parental Bond 2nd attack only does 1/4 damage
>Rage Powder only has +1 priority
>Reintroduce Gems
>Give Flygon, Quagsire, Victreebel, Gen 2 starters & Exeggutor megas
Have I missed anything out?
>Ban all Legendaries
Stopped reading there.
>>26193118
>Top 10 '16 teams were basically copy+paste clones
>This is somehow a good thing
I'll concede maybe ALL legendaries is a bit excessive but you know full well that CHALK was bullshit
Allow each deck to have only 6 pokemon lines and only 6 Fully evolved pokemon in it.
>Dragon Ascent
>Flying type
>Gen 1 Sand Attack
>Normal type
>>26193096
Second this for Oblivion wing.
>>26193120
>Ability that boosts Dark Type moves.
>Signature move isn't Dark Type.
Shit always confuses me.
show us your taste
Sure.
Where were you when Game Freak became full lazy?
>most of the Battle Maison Pokémon in Super Battles where imported from the Battle Subway
>on XY many trainer have the same name and quotes from Battle Subway trainers
>ORAS added new trainers and models but the Battle Maison still uses the ones from XY, at least on HGSS Battle Frontier changed the Sinnoh trainers with HGSS trainers (although overworld sprites were retained)
>Hoenn had a Battle Tower like every pre-Gen V games, but ORAS copypasted the Battle Maison and changed the name to "Battle Maison Replica"
>Although XY had rematches in the form of Battle Chateau, ORAS didn't. All bcause ORAS is a "true remake of RS" (I liked the idea of a true remake because it has all the same trainer sprites/models from the original but at least they could add more things)

It is this.
heh nothin personell kid
Guys it's been at least a week since we've heard from Timmy. Now is the perfect time for him to strike and he's gone. Where did he go?
Isn't it obvious?
permabanned I hope
fuck that attentionwhore
>>26193010
Dead I hope. Hope the same thing happens to Zach too.
Just over 70 hours to go, /vp/. What do you want SM's graphics to be like? More saturated colours (speaking of which, are the textures in GO better in this regard than the Gen VI ones)? Less square overworld tiles? A better engine with less framerate and 3D issues than Gen VI?
More Homer Simpson
>>26192998
The sad thing is that this part of the episode had better 3D than most of gen 6 and it's about 20 years old.
I dont want it to look exactly like XY/ORAS. A vastly different atmosphere and pallette would be sustinant enough.
The only thing that would save it if it looked like an XYORAS clone would be great Pokémon designs, but I'm a sucker for new Pokémon anyway so I'll end up getting it no matter what.
What happens if you use a guarantee-crit move like Frost Breath on a Pokemon with something like Shell Armor that prevents all critical hits?
I'd assume it doesn't crit.
What if your Riolu was poisoned right before it evolves into Location? Would it be one of the the first Steel types to be poisoned?
The negative always overrides the positive in Pokémon (provided they are equal values). Same way a normal move with a no-accuracy-check hit rate will still miss a ghost mon or a mon that is flying/digging etc.
