AMOUR THREAD TIME!
>>24593811
y previous thred denbt lmao
>>24593827
sorry pikas got it first >>24593819
its cool tho, you can post amour pics and i can add pikas to them it will be fun
>>24593819
>Pikachu and Nenene were the hired guns all along
>>24593834
Perfect! How about this one for starters?
Remember Tierno will get a mega blaistoise!
>>24593834
Why does nenene feel like a more natural pre-evo to Raichu?
>>24593838
>posting lewd on a blue board
>>24593811
He looks like he's got an X-shaped scar across his eyes.
>>24593844
I'd love to see that, a water battle between a tank and a speedster would be fun to watch
So much for that. Now we're getting the pic-dumping shitposter.
>>24593844
Nah, Mega Blastoise already got its spotlight with Siebold.
>>24593844
Prof. Oak, please. We know it's you.
>>24593855
why call it shitposting? I love amour, and so does everyone else
>Having to report Amour because he's picdumping
>>24593867
so its wrong to post amour on a discussion thread that allows pics of amour to be posted?
>BIT BY BIT
>>24593857
Then how the writers are going to balance him right before the league?
U just man because if tierno gets a mega that would mean Trevor would likely get a mega charizard Y
>>24593891
nice. Maybe the pic of bonnie being touched pervertedly by squishy?
>>24593880
Shauna can't get mega Venasaur though, so why leave her out but give the other two megas?
>>24593867
Such is the price we have to pay.
>>24593867
It's not even Amour. It's just that ass that picdumps with the blatant file names.
for what purpose?
>>24593887
>Touching his shoulders in XY70 is progress
>"Admitting" to wanting Ash in XY80, even though she's still just as beta by the end of the episode is progress
>Still unwilling to admit she likes Ash in XY90 is progress
>>24593908
i did that one yesterday f a m
Next year?
Ash becoming the Messi of the pokemon world when?
>>24593927
Because they synchronized
>>24593934
Greninja's happening this year. Ash Greninja maybe a bit into next year.
>>24593926
>It's not even Amour. It's just that ass that picdumps with the blatant file names.
I love amour anon, its funny that you'd think i dont.
>>24593927
So his move set is currently Water Shuriken, Cut, and presumably Waterfall
What will his last move be? Double Team? Aerial Ace?
>>24593938
>le autistic manlet GOAT
Never.
Ash is destined to become a big guy.
>>24593957
That's not Waterfall, it's just a natural phenomenon.
>>24593909
Why can't Shauna get a Mega Venusaur? Clears out the riff-raff so Ash can getMega Charizard ZFire/Ghost because the tail flame went out. Wonder Guard. Straight 120 in all stats save HP because fuck you and your 100 point limit.The fun part is Game Freak'd do it, too.
>>24593972
Well, if Shauna gets a Mega Serena will have to as well.She gets Mega Fug that was tamed with Pokepuffs.

>>24593977
I read that as "Shauna gets a Mega Serena"
>>24593977
Serena's Serenas Strike again!
Do you think Trevor Philips would kidnap Serena for me if i pay him enough?
>>24594005
>>24593984
>>24593928
Amour is nothing special. Not unique. Not developing, Completely one-sided.
>>24594023
misty please
What can honestly be a non forced scenario where these two actually have to face off as opposed to Alain or any Grunt/Admin just kidnapping Squishy
>>24594057
MORE AMOUR!!!!
>there is no safe haven to talk about the Pokemon anime in the entire world
I'll never understand the shitposter mentality.
>>24594037
All or nothing or just shit hitting the fan?
>>24594070Extreme butthurt over a show they insist on hating the very existence of actually being good.
>>24594075how do you make these, anon?
>>24594075
The fuck's a Sawyer, Miette, Nini, and Wulfic?
>>24594067

This is too much of pottery

>>24594086
I really like the progression in each gym. Serena just stopped worrying altogether at this point.
>>24594067
>>24594112
Based jannies arrived
>>24594125
>progression
That's not a word that should be associated with Amour
>>24594122
Thats the spirit! Its just cute for these two to be paired up.
>>24594125
I miss worried serena
wew lad
>>24594127
wont lie, its very cute, but very unstable between those two.
>>24594135
Amour is just a simple crush anon. Nothing more.
>>24594127
Clemont is acute girl
>>24594082
I know some wiki syntax.
Time to settle this.

>>24594212

>>24594212
But i can't choose a favorite, there's a lot of cute moments
So yeah, Oha Suta. Get in here if you have any kind of hope it's still possible to discuss around shitposts at this point.
Startan.
What reasons would they make Alan and Ash battle and become rivals? This shit is going to be intense when it happens!
>>24594268

Would you an Aya?
>they dropped the Pokemon Ranking segment
Fuck this shit.
>>24594274
Isn't it very simple?
Alan needs Squishy to cure Hari-san out of his coma and bring Manon's smile back, and Ash will protect Squishy from Team Flare at all costs. Just because they might eventually come to a mutual understanding doesn't mean they will stop becoming rivals since they both seek power as trainers.
Rip Pokemon segment?
>>24594313
The Pokemon ranking one with Robert, yeah.
We're still getting Pokemon Headline and Pokemon Club later.
No Rei, so Reifag won't post the episode.
>>24594134
Someone taking Gambler club art and changing it to make it look like some lovey-dovey Ash/Serena pic.
Also, thee of the Pokemon Club members are in the studio today.
>>24594339
It's Yoshiteru Hasegawa, JP and Sumika Ito, in case anyone cares
>Ash cosplay
was this case ever before?
>>24594357
MAEDA208 has always dressed up as Ash on Oha Suta.
So the big Pokemon news this time is just that the Pokemon Club will be on the next episode of Pokenchi.
And this dude is going to try joining the Pokemon Club by doing a presentation on Team Rocket's Meowth, his favorite Pokemon.
>>24594362
ah
this clears the casesorry for being newfag ;_;
This scene was fucking hilarious, I had completely forgotten it.
Actually pretty good for such a quick drawing.
kek
And that's it for Pokemon this episode.
>yfwboth Pikavee and PetGeekChick both get shot down in favor of EeveexPancham
I think Pancham might learn Wood Hammer from battling the Quilladin. Didn't we see it using it in a preview pic for a future episode?
>>24594429
>BW clouds are used in an intentionally shitty fantasy sequence
>>24594386
Which we already knew anyway.
>>24594430
>PetGeekChick
Obviously this episode is just going to force more BunnelbyxEevee and hint at leading to Clemont x Serena
The Quilladin battle seems well-animated. I guess some budget spilled over from episode 1.
>>24594451
What's his problem

>>24594127
Those two are like Francium.And by that I mean they'd be very unstable: the longest-lasting isotope of Francium lasts for less than 22 minutes, which means it has the least stable naturally occurring nucleus on the periodic table.

>>24594777
Correa is best Flare by far.
The high level of detail in this episode really drives it home to me how they draw hundreds of beautiful backgrounds to be used just a few seconds each. Kinda crazy when you think about it.
what do these say?
This episode was pretty good. I wonder how much of Squishy's mechanic will be a part of the games.
>mfw Let'Z go really made it in
based Adamant
>>24594626
Team Rocket needs their own show, they are just a burden on the main show. Jessie hasn't been the same since generation 1, she is too crazy these days.

>>24595004
>No 10-year Eureka going on adventures with Dedenne, Tyrantrum, and Squishy. Ever.
>>24595021
I can't remember their names in my own language and I won't be able to until I replay X or Z comes out, so I understand you.Also trying to remember the names of characters, moves and places in three different languages sucks.
>>24594037
I think it'll be better if they become friends first or at least as close to friends as Alan's autism would allow. Ash is friendly enough to strike a conversation with anyone that interests him. It'll be like the setup for the COTD episodes except the guy turns out to be the enemy in the end.
Seeing Charizard and its owner having a mega stone can spark his interest to talk to the guy. Alan is hard to approach but as Manon showed, if you can get past the harsh exterior, he'll eventually open up a little. Alan also used to be happy and enthusiastic like Ash so I think he'll be reminded of his old days.
Then the reveal happens that Alan needs to capture Puni from Boni and shit hits the fan.
Who else had their homoscience boners activated when Clemont said this?
do you think any other pokemon will get an ash forme after the league?

I want to see a situation where Alan is told Ash's name and eventually makes the connection to the guy who saved Garchomp that Manon told him about. I wonder how he'd react.

>>24595106
It's my favorite thing to come out of /padt/ in a long time.

>>24595111
that makes more sense
Predictions for Wulfric's placement? I think it'll be late February or early March, just little under 20 episodes in. I don't think they'll wait that long for the gym battle.
>>24594148
You're doing a pretty shitty job at promoting your shit, anon.
Eevee needs your support :^)
http://strawpoll.me/5921849
>>24595084
I think that since they both know Sycamore, that can be the thing that starts their friendship. Alan has a soft spot for Sycamore and he was the one that found the Gible in the first place. Knowing that Ash helped Sycamore and Garchomp and was also willing to die for his pokemon, Alan will actually get along with him at the start. Until the mission from Lysandre comes of course.
So, openings are never 100% accurate but would Ash losing to two mega's really cause him to fall into a depressive state? He's lost harder before, and if that's the case I don't see why he wouldn't think to bring back his Pokemon than CAN mega evolve to compete with them.
Adamant, why are you so based?
>>24595046
Maybe. Not in XY though, that's for sure.
>>24595137Because he's in love...with pic related.
>>24595126
I thought they kinda had to get the whole Team Flare shit out of the way before that.
>>24595137Because he is in love
So, according to the subs, Shota recommends that Ash and gang go to Terminus Cave to catch Pokemon you can't find anywhere else.
Will Ash actually catch his six Pokemon there, or will it merely serve as the next front in the Z crisis?
>>24595135
ash wont have a mega he'll just have GreninjAsh
>>24595154
I don't think Ash is getting a sixth for a while.Who will it be?
>>24595143
From the look of it, Team Flare will be spread out across a much longer period of time than just one cour like Episode N was. Team Flare may be spread across half the XY&Z series, with a bunch of gym/training/Greninjash/Tripokalon/mega evolution shenanigans and fillers mixed in.
I don't have photoshop
someone else edit this pls
>>24595091
Those fucking edgelord eyes.
>>24595091
>seeing a group of happy people when you're in despair
>tfw
>>24595157
I know that but what I'm saying is, if his depressive state is accurate because of him losing to Megas…why wouldn't he think "Oh, I have a Charizard and a Sceptile than can probably Mega Evolve!"
>>24595164
WOAH
>>24595143
The opening makes me think otherwise. The gang is shown to be heading towards Lumiose City with Puni-chan. Unless shit goes down when they reach Terminus Cave (presumably in episode 8) and they're forced to backtrack to Anistar and Dendemille and then go back to Lumiose through Route 16, I think they'll get through Terminus Cave, get to Couriway (where a Tripokalon we already know about probably takes place), Snowbelle/Pokémon Village where Ash fights Wulfric, and finally back to Lumiose through Routes 21 and 22. Ash was seen both in the previous OP and in this one in a room that looks like the interior of Lysandre Labs under Lumiose City and Perfect Zygarde's cloud-piercing beam also originates from Lumiose, so it'd make sense for the climax to take place there.

greninja is predisposed to it via protean. floette also has variable forms based on its flower. it probably cant be just any pokemon.

Why would the climax be in Lumiose? Was it there in the games? I don't remember.
>>24595126
he's definitely a giver
>>24595184
You're absolutely right.
I'm kinda hyped now, because Blaziken Mask will definitely be in the climax.

There's shit-all in terms of availability in Terminus Cave if they want to go by the games. The only gen 6 mon there is Noibat.
So, what you're saying is... you're about to waste 30 seconds of our time on a rant in full autism mode about Pikachu when you could easily make your own containment thread on Poke4chan for it?

That's where his lab is and we dunno if his goal is the same as in the games.

No, the climax was in Geosenge Town, in another secret underground base.

he has two of the three Kalos pokemon that broke Smogon, give him the third

It started in Lumiose after the seventh badge and immediately continued in Geosenge (specifically next to the menhir circle where in the anime Pikachu first fought against the crazed Mega Lucario), but I doubt they're going back there. The games didn't have Zygarde in a plot-relevant role either, so this seems to be based on Z or be anime-original.
