This is made me hate him

You should learn, Serebiifag.
Stop shilling this loser you pathetic underaged shit.
>>26123477
>>26123484
>>26123496
But seriously, these are just mistakes. Using these as an argument will only diminish whatever point you try to make.

Now this is an actual fuck-up.

Of course, but he has connections.

>KANGASKHAN CAN LEARN KNOCK OFF BECAUSE MY RELIABLE SOURCE SEREBII SAYS SO GAISE XD
>>26123504
I can almost see how he thought Illumise was related to Ledyba (but pre-evolved, seriously? Fucking retard), but Duskull evolving from Sunflora? Wut?
>>26123538
Pls Joe, don't you have your own shitty website and forums with a slew of Underage b&s to white knight for you instead of shitposting here?
Can't wait for this guy to get sued by nintendo
>>26123521
Greninja came from SA, same with Hawlucha
>>26123409
I'm pretty sure he also said volbeat/illumise were bug/electric but I'm too lazy to prove it
>>26123981
Nope. It originated from here. I was in the thread where they were posted for the very first time and they weren't found anywhere else before then. If you look in the archive you can probably still find it.
>>26123908
Why would he get sued? He's doing the site for free and isn't taking credit for anything he posts.
>>26123475
literally every owlfag says they originated there retard. No real leak has EVER been leaked to 4chan first regarding pokemon.
And for all you retards who can't read let me exemplify the word "FIRST"
>>26123409
The amount of pomf salt in this thread is hilarious.
Why do people love to circle jerk about this fucker? Why does anyone care?
I follow the site for news. I couldn't give less of a shit about Joe himself. And I give even less of a shit about all the 12 year olds on this board that he triggers when he makes a typo that feel the need to scream about it.
>>26123409
Damn you owl fags are getting desperate, eh?
You had your reign for 2 months but its all coming to a close and you're scared.
Feels so good seeing you fuckers like this
>>26123461
pomf pls
OP just make sure not to ask for a collection of fuckups from other webmasters. Joe's had less than 10 real fuckups, most of which have appeared here. Everyone else fucks up at least once a month, and it would be a gigantic effort to catalogue anyone else's fuckups.
I skimmed the thread but I didn't see anyone mention Shellos being a Lapras pre-evo.
>>26124181
and by here, I mean in this thread
>>26124181
Some of the fuck ups have nothing to do with being a webmaster and everything with being a retard
Like when he got the pirated game and pretended it was real
>>26124116
>why does anyone care if a site for news is not reliable
>>26124229
I'd love to see a comparison of how many times he's posted false information versus the amount of times he's posted correct information.
>>26124254
Anyone can post 100% accurate information so long as you wait for it to be confirmed
>>26124264
I would hope most news sites wait for the shit they post to be confirmed before they post it. What the fuck?
>>26124229
>>26123484
Unless you're an autist or you've never heard of Pokemon in your life, I think you kids should be able to understand these are simple mistakes. I seriously don't understand how it could irk you that much whether he wrote Arcanine instead of Golduck.
>b-but it's unreliable, he's just so wrong
Don't use Serebii if you don't like it. There are other sites.
>>26124217
Oh yeah I forgot about No Experience During Tutorial Mode
>>26124289
JOE PLS
>>26123554
>sunflora's japanese name is kimawari
>duskull's japanese name is yomawaru
>from the blurry pic the teeth kind of maybe sort of look like flower petals if you squint a little
>must be a sunflora evo, even though the names are derived from completely different words and the rest of duskull's body isn't even remotely plant-like
Serebii logic. Best part is he claimed Duskull being a Sunflora evo was a rumor circulating among Japanese fans, like Japanese people don't speak their own language well enough to know the difference between two completely different words that share a few syllables. It's like claiming Frillish evolves into Vanillish because they're both blue and white and end in "illish".
>>26124285
Then it wouldn't be news, it would be olds
You gotta be quick and make bold judgements, some people have good judgement, some like Serebii don't
If you want more recent cases, I remember that time that Serebii practically revealed that he'd pirated BW
>>26123504
This one is still live (though inside a spoiler)
http://www.serebii.net/archive/September-2006.shtml
>>26124342
I agree, but on the other hand, this mistake was 14 years ago. And there were people that believed Volbeat was related to Ledyba. And now I've made myself sad because this was 14 fucking years ago.
I will give anyone an internet dollar if they can name three more true mistakes that have not yet been mentioned in this thread.
>>26124428
>>26124428
fuck off, if we find three you'll just go
>hurr now find ANOTHER three more!
>>26124360
No. No proper news outlet should operate like that, ever. "Quick and bold judgements" are the reason the vast majority of news sites are hailed as being a load of bullshit.
>>26124442
>proper news outlet should operate like that, ever
That's so naive
Tell me one "proper news outlet", I guarantee I have screencaps of them fucking up big time
If you were a news junkie you would know it
>>26124438
>>26124441
That doesn't make sense. No, all the mistakes I know of have been posted already as far as I know. I want to see new ones. Three just seems like a good number.
I'd prefer to see things he posted on the website rather than speculation he's made on his personal Twitter. Not that you shouldn't continue. I just like seeing the mistakes on the site since they're funnier that way.
>>26124441
hey I remember that thread, and that guy wasn't wrong, his logic made sense in that context. he chose the perfect number to request. go ahead and check, the mistakes from the last thread are all the same as the ones in this thread, except this time, the question has been asked after all the mistakes have been posted. this guy is smrt fanily.
>>26124447
That's exactly my point. That's why I said "the vast majority of news sites are hailed as being a load of bullshit." Everyone loves jumping the gun to be first to post information, no matter if it's correct or not.
>>26123513
Fuck off joe
>>26124441
Do you sincerely not get what that anon was trying to do? Goddamn dude.
Anyway, I'm sure there's some legit ones in here. Hate to link to it but these dorkholes seem more autistic than us

Healthy skepticism, not claiming it to be 100% fact. Such a huge fuckup!
>>26124822
It's alright Joe. Everyone makes mistakes.
Would you look at that. No one has any more mistakes to post. It's almost as if he doesn't make many mistakes.
>>26124937
Fuck off you cheeky cunt
>>26123527
Could you post some examples of all those right leaks originated here that you say?

Wow, you sure blew him the fuck out. However will he recover from this.
>>26124574
Because who posts first gets the views. News posts can always be altered and updated later. But if someone beats you to it, your competition will get the views (and ad revenue) first.
>>26123409
I pity Serebii for having fags like you waiting patiently for him to make even a single fuckup so you can masturbate over the perceived notion that you are smarter than a guy running a harmless pokemon website. You can fuck with him like Timmy. I'm always up for a goof. But why would you hate the guy so much you make fucking threads about it?
>>26125415They're Bulbapedo editors
>>26125165
joe pls
>>26123998
no, it came from a thread from a forum with pics claiming that he played the game, then later on deleted them and claiming they're fake
anon, I was here, no leaks came here outside of streetbroken games
Ohhhhh Bulbapedo .....again?

LEST WE FORGET
Anyone got the cap when he claimed Blaziken was a legendary in RS?
love the fact people are having to go back literal decades to discredit him. Also love how there's almost 100 posts here but 48 posters. So much samefagging going on
>>26125936
This image always makes me giggle with glee.
"PHOTOSHOPPED LITTLE MAC" still gets me.
>>26125936
man that leak was fun, it's rare that such big Nintendo leaks ever become real
>>26125415
I have nothing but respect for the guy. The amount of hours he puts into the site is phenomenal especially since he seems to also be juggling a relationship with it. So he is human and makes errors here and there...big deal. The fact there are so few over the many years he has run the site is great
>>26127945
Didn't he used to be a fatty too? But yeah he catches a lot of mostly undeserved shit here because of memes but I admire his dedication and still use his site for news. I'll miss it when he inevitably moves on.
>>26127963
Yeah he used to be huge but now is really thin. Met him at UK Nationals last year and you'd never believe he was like that before. He's a genuinely nice guy too
>>26123409
We probably could, but it wouldn't be worth the time or effort to go over every error someone's made on a website over the last two decades.
Especially if we're counting brief coding errors like pic related.
>>26127991
They have to count errors like that, as seen in this thread, else their narrative holds no weight
>>26127985
Yeah, he's nice, but he's a moron when it comes to VGC. For some reason they had him commentate at a Regionals and almost every line he said was retarded; he didn't know how Sucker Punch worked, he called Protect a gimmick move etc.
He also has a stutter.
>>26128025
What are you on about? He never called Protect a gimmick move. He said something like going for a double protect was risky. I also didn't hear him making a mistake about Sucker Punch.
>>26128025
I very much doubt he'd get the mechanics of what moves do wrong. That has nothing to do with VGC but general knowledge and the one thing we can say about him is that he has the knowledge
>>26123513
Oh come on, even I'll say if it's posted here it's more than likely fake.
When everyone is anonymous you can get away with shit more since you have no need to backup your claim, build a reputation or anything.

>>26127945
Yeah, some of this shit is ridiculous. He's not the fucking BBC, a few mistakes here and there over years is nothing. Joe's one of the least shitty big fans I've seen for any series.
>>26125936
its a picture of SSB screenshots
what happened?
I guess we should be using Bulbanews for information right OP?
>>26128934
topkek. All these autistic fucks who run sites are the same and choosing one over the other only makes you extra autistic.
>>26129244
Look at all the news that has come lately and how little they have posted.
>>26128934
Refresh my memory on the Pomf = Arceus thing, I've completely forgotten.
>>26129339
His name is "Archaic" on their forums. So he thought GF named Arceus after him, and edited TV Tropes to say that.
>>26129390
Goddamn, how fucking deluded can one man be?
>>26123409
>>26124264
>Pomf claims this is his approach to explain why Bulbapedia updates later that a dozen other sites
>still consistently fucks up even on real leaks
while joe may have done some retarded shit in the past (nothing serious though), it's nothing compared to his obnoxious fans that have given him more power than he ought to have.
"if its not on his page its fake" is the worst these retards say. joe knows as much as me, you or anyone on this board, or he wouldnt for example made this awful mistake >>26123409
the days of insider info are gone. he knew nothing on bw. he knew nothing on xy (evidenced by OP's post)
he knew nothing about the upcoming project after ORAS. he was on neogaf speculating about Z just like most of people did here.
how does he get the info so fast? a lot of people help him. but he gets all the stuff from japanese forums and press sites. he is quick though, but I ve seen a lot of news being posted here way before on his site.
but the usual response is the "not serebii confirmed" meme
>>26123409
I made that fake scan.
>>26129476
>the days of insider info are gone
May I ask about the "insider info"? Did he have some kind of relationship with GF/N back before gen5?
>>26129553
It was rumored that after the BW leaks and the Nintendo C&D letters, they worked out a deal with Serebii to give him early info that he'd have to sit on and not post. This way he could tell what was fake or not and could get his site updated faster.
That's supposedly why in Gen 6 he got his site updated with accurate info so fast and why rumors and leaks went to PokeExperto and Pokebeach for things like Meowstic and Malamar. Serebii couldn't post them without Nintendo being upset.
Dunno if any of it is true, but it's stuff people thought in the XY days.
>>26123485
Yveltal is Dark/Flying, and that isn't the official art for Calem.
>>26124438
>>26124453
What a fucking retard
>>26129818
Nah that's complete bullshit.
Look at that, still no more true mistakes posted.
>>26130258
Fuck off you cunty cheek
no screencap but
>that time he reported on B/W EXCLUSIVE INFO when the ROMs were leaked
>"You don't get EXP until after you beat the rivals"
>it was just the antipiracy acting up on his emulator
>>26129241
these images came out before the new SSB came out, people were trying to prove it wrong because "muh patterns" there was great shit like "Game & Watch's hand leaking on to Wario" or "Shulk is just a photoshop Little Mac"
Basically /v/'s greninja leak
>>26124041
Didn't he get shit from Nintendo for posting BW info early?
>>26123504
This was a decade ago. How old was Joe then?
>>26130662
Because he pirated the game and then dumped information.
>>26130662
That would just be a cease and desist, and I'm pretty sure multiple fansites got emails like that, not just Serebii. And now he at least knows to wait until release date to start his coverage.
>>26129390
He didn't seriously believe it, he was being le epic shitposter.
>>26130662
>>26131050
Kinda. It was because he used sprites from a beta version of the game.
>>26131279
Pomf, pls.
Yeah lets mock someone for making mistakes even though its perfectly natural for human beings.
