But what does it MEAN?
>>25662367
some of that Pokemon art looks like utter shit
Pretty sure some of those stills are from the fucking 90s. I recognize that crappy looking Gengar from my Indigo League sticker book.
They're retconning the original 151 to have the cross-gen babies and evos.
>>25662367
That's an incredibly random selection of Pokemon.
>>25662425
They add new ones at a constant rate.
I'm just taking a shot in the dark here, but maybe this poll is going to determine which pokemon is going to play an important role in the upcoming movie featuring Volcanion?
>>25662425
>random
All the main ones (Charizard/Mewtwo etc) are there.
>>25662501
Unlikely, the movie is too far into production for key plotpoints like that to be added at this point.
>>25662519
Pikachu isn't.
>>25662532
Pikachu plays a role in every episode already
>>25662522
Then why would the election thing be under "Pokemon-Movie"?
>>25662564
Chances are it has to do with the theater distro for the movie.
>>25662519
And everyone's favourite, Emboar.
>>25662581
Seems resonable, but I do wonder how the pokemon are going to be picked though?
>>25662654
It's called an election, so I assume through a poll.
>>25662393
Muk too, and Nidorino
I've got a bad feeling this is going to be yet another le nostalgic 20th anniversary genwunner pandering crap
>>25662367
They just added a 161st Pokemon.
Can you find it?
>>25662519
They don't even have Blaziken or Sceptile, but their pre-evos instead. That makes no sense.
>>25662367
They just added Pinsir to the top right
>>25662581
Oh joy, another Arceus
>>25662673
It's pinsir
>>25662703
I'm gonna vote him. He seems like a bro.
>>25662678
You seem to have mistaken remake advertising with actual popularity.
Hoenn starters will drop back to irrelevancy once gen 7 starts.
>>25662689
Arceus was the ticket distro last year, most nip movie fans have one at this point.
If unavailaility is going to matter, Manaphy is a likely candidate.
>charizard and mewtwo in the middle
every. single. time.
>>25662367
All I know is for some reason seeing all those post Gen II pokemon next to all those older ones in that "glossy" artstyle make the "newer" pokemon feel very 90's esque, like they had always existed or something.
>>25662772
It's the anime promo artstyle, it's always looked like that.
How do you vote?
>>25662367
probably just all the pokemon that are going to make an appearence into the movie
>>25662793
You don't. At the time being, it's a picture that regularly gets new Pokemon added to it, a counter showing how many "candidates are currently running", and a countdown.
It's unlikely we'll learn more about this until that countdown reaches 0.
>which pokemon you want to have a spotlight in the next pokemon movie ?
>>25662839
>Pikachu wins
>>25662817
Thank you anon.
>>25662839
Since this is Japan - Lucario wins
>>25662595
I used to hate emboar but he's a bro in my Volt White run, making him ground/fire was the best move ever
Samurott is uglier
>>25662921
>I used to hate emboar
Fuck you and your cancerous taste
>>25662934
are you implying that I have cancerous taste for liking emboar?
GUYS WAIT UP I JUST FOUND THIS
>>25662955
No, for ever disliking it. Emboar is the best BW starter by far.
>>25662971
Emboar isn't a starter
>>25662367
It's probably just deciding what pokemon will get appear in the next movie.
>>25662969
Yes, and?
>>25662934
>>25662955
>>25662971
this went in a better direction than i thought it was going to
>>25663002
what does it say?
Should we vote up anyone in particular?
>>25663009
>Magearna
>Another mythical Pokémon debuts, hot on the heels of Volcanion!
>The lovely Magearna, with its metallic body, is an artificial Pokémon born by human hand 500 years ago!!
>Species: Artificial Pokémon
>Height: 1.0m
>Weight: 80.5kg
It's the old Magearna profile they had on the movie site for a while before they opened the movie profiles subpage.
>>25663027
We don't even know what this is for yet.
Or how to vote.So let's vote Garde
>>25662367
>open eyed musharna
oh god why
>>25662367
There's no way they'll add every single pokémon, right? There isn't enough space.
>>25663084
They've added 161 Pokemon in 7 days. There's 24 days to go.
>>25662808
>Samurott's 2nd movie appearance
I don't care if /vp/ considers me an anon with shit taste, but I'm glad my favorite water type in the series is getting a post-Gen 5 appearance.
> Barbaracles also in the image
Hmmm double Razor Shell fight I assume? I'm so hyped for this
>>25662367
>Mew
>>25662393
>>25662672
jynx, lapras, and venusaur too. also magmar
>>25663100
163 now.
Luxray, and Scyther joined in above the banner.
>>25662749
Stay mad hipster fag
>>25663038
It would be fun to do an old fashioned 4Chan poll rigging but we would never get every here to agree on the candidate.
Probably Luvdisc though.
>>25664445
I'd rather rig it in favor of something cool and deservinglike Raichurather than some shitmon desu.
>>25664445
>not Fug
>>25664304
At this point they are adding every single one. Nais
>>25664478
>>25664507
See what I mean?
>>25664830
C'mon, we can totally agree on one thing.
It's just gotta be something that's not necessarily "the best Pokémon", because that no one will agree on.
Something memetic, an inside joke, just for the hell of it. Slowpoke/bro? Anorith?
>>25664847
I still say Fug is memetic enough
>The winner will be a pokemon given away for an event
>Fucking kids will just vote to make it mewtwo or arceus again
I want something interesting, not boxwarmer legendary bullshit.
>>25664872
But people wouldn't see it as "that Pokémon that won because of /vp/", after all, Rayquaza really is popular as hell and there'd probably be plenty of little kids and normies alike voting for him as well.
What new mon did they just add? Can't find it.
>>25665108
Dodrio and Hitmonchan.
>>25665108
Dodrio
>>25665119
Hitmonchan too.
>>25664847
>>25665105
If we were to rig it it can't be with a pokemon we already have a meme about. It's not like the joke would be incorporated into the giveaway in anyway.
It would have to be a pokemon that has no joke yet but still enough star appeal to make passerbys click it if they see it way up on the polls.
>>25662749
Don't worry, Lucario will be at their side
>>25665161
Nidoking? He's cool-looking for the normies, and the TPP crowd fondly remembers the Fonz.
>>25665161
what about best starter?
Protip: open the old and new image in separate tabs, quickly switch between them to see which Pokemon have been added.
>>25662724
Manaphy is being distributed in the next few months through WiFi, meaning everyone will be able to get it finally. So them making it the movie event Pokemon would be really pointless.
>>25665316
Not in Japan.
They added one more pokemon
>>25665598
It's Kangaskhan
>>25665105
Anorith
So what is the point of this? Why did they pick and choose only these Pokemon to feature on the label, and why are they adding more?
>>25665161
I think Machamp or Slowbro could work. Or Nidoking as >>25665223 said.
>>25665223
>>25665252
>>25665705
Those are all pretty decent candidates in my opinion.
Do they keep adding them still?
Given that it is movie related, they won't be adding Porygon, will they?
>>25662715
Sure. Keep telling yourself that when Hoenn got more of its starters in Pokken than any other gen.
>>25662934
Both Emboar and Infernape are shitty knockoffs of the superior Blaziken. GameFreak tried to capitalize on Blaziken's popularity by shitting out two other Fire starters, but they failed miserably.
>>25666536
Wonder what would happen if Porygon was added in and it shot straight up to the top of the ballots.
>>25666536
>Porygon
That it. Thats the one.
Old school
Decent viability but no real limelight
And dredging up something like that for 4chany flavour.
>>25665252
That's not Sceptile, faggot.
>>25666591
The Porygon line hasn't been in the anime anymore because of the whole seizure fiasco.
>>25666597
You're right.
It's not.
>>25666605
Thats why we're (I'm) voting for it.
We dont know what the ballot is about
>>25666629
How the hell do you vote anyway?
>>25666687
I assume first we wait for the ballot to open in what appears to be three and a half weeks
>yfw the Porygon line are the only mons they don't add
>>25666536
They do.
After Kangaskhan, they've now added Kabutops, Metagross and Piplup.
So do they add one Pokemon an hour or what?
>>25664847
Anorith is the way to go
>>25662367
Where are the legends
They somehow made Basculin look like it belongs in Youkai Watch
>>25662367
>That Blastoise/Tirtouga duo
>>25667703
Mewtwo is there.
>Movie site
>Anime art
Whatever it is, it's probably nothing most of us will give a shit about.
>>25662367
We vote for what region becomes dlc after revisiting Kalos in sun/moon
Fraxure's in.
>>25667773
Newfag pls go
