Swamp confirmed tsundere
Damn, that opening was really good. I expect good things from this season, but then again they already ****** up by giving freaking scotty mega sceptile. The kids a noob that just started and barely knew anything about pokemon and now he gets a mega so he can compete with Ash. That's super bad plot writing.Although Ash could still get a mega and I hope he gets Charziard Y. But before that, I hope Ash greninja destroys mega sceptile and doesn't become a scapegoat to not give him a mega. Everything else looks good though. It seems Allan will appear evil but learn that he was wrong, and becomes a rival to Ash.

I don't care about Yokai-Watch at all, but Jibanyan and that ghost white cat thing are really cute.

About that Pokemon opening, it looks pretty cool, but WTF is that ugly Pikachu thing with Team Rocket?
That Greninja transformation makes Greninja's Final Smash look a little weird now, I don't know.
Also, Sceptile confirmed.

Actually, from the looks of it( I looked over the episode pictures on serebii), Team flare have several zygarde cores and malon's chespin frees the one that travels with bonnie. Team Flare seems to be trying to use them to control zygarde.

Well too bad, as we've seen from stuff like AC: Unity the devs ultimately don't care for playable games at launch.
Don't even get me started on "playable" at launch. Just look at the new Tony Hawk. Most hilarious and disgusting game launch I've ever seen. Nothing was even on the disk so there was no point in buying the physical copy.

Lysandre wasn't evil either
He did nothing wrong!
Now now. Remember the Pokemon formula:
They're not evil; they're just misunderstood. :)
Yeah, Giovanni was just a mafia boss
Maxie and Archie didn't know they were going to kill everyone
Cyrus was just an asshole
N is a cinnamon roll
And Ghetsis just wants to take over the world
They did nothing wrong

I thought Tony Hawk's launch was hilarious. It's like everything that can go wrong went wrong. It was almost like a comedy if you think about it.

Although, as someone who liked Gen 3 anime and seen the Legendary part, at least Maxie wised up in the end when he realized this was stupid to do this evil thing. Archie however is a ****, cuz he was like "lol nope, gonna do what I want cuz teh evilz."

Down on the corner, out in the street.
Out of curiosity, if Smash 4 had full blown endings in Classic Mode like Mortal Kombat Klassic Tower does, what ending do you think each character would have?

In case you are wondering, this is where I got it from: https://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/...write_mortal_kombatlike_classictower_endings/


Copy-pasting my one:
After defeating Master Core and its many forms, Ganondorf eyed the floating orb that now stood in its place. Curiosity took over him as he walked over and placed his left hand on the orb. Suddenly, the Triforce of Power embedded into his right hand glowed brighter than it ever had before as the orb shook violently, exploding into a white light. Ganondorf then opened his eyes to see portals to other worlds.

The Mushroom Kingdom, Hyrule, Bionis and Mechonis, Ylisse, Tellius, Nowhere Islands, Onett.

Now armed with the power of the Master Core along with the Triforce of Power, Ganondorf set out to conquer the other worlds beyond....

Maxie and Archie are environmental terrorists and THINK their actions are going to improve the world

They think they are heroes

Just saw the opening. Why does that kid have a Sceptile already. Greninja looks like it got serious. Animation is good.
Zygarde Complete at the end lol, does it not have legs in the air?

Cyrus and Dennis the Menace were the only legitimate Pokemon villains. Considering they were both insane to the max


There's also the villain in Pokemon Coliseum aka the best villain in the series

That reminds me. When Zygarde Complete was teased in the movie trailer, everyone assumed it'd only have a tail
To be fair, it did look like it lacked legs back then because we could barely see lower then its torso. Also, it would make a lot of sense if it was just a tail considering its original form was a snake when it saw it (and the cells/core are snake-like as well).

Damn, that opening was really good. I expect good things from this season, but then again they already ****** up by giving freaking scotty mega sceptile. The kids a noob that just started and barely knew anything about pokemon and now he gets a mega so he can compete with Ash.

Eh, that's not really unusual considering game-wise we could get it as early as just after Gym 3. Looking at the picture for the recent episode, the kid has five and is still working towards getting one.

Also, based on the intro itself, I'm pretty certain that Ash-Greninja is going to be an equivalent for Mega Evolution anyway, so it's not like the kid and Alain are going to have perks that he doesn't get.

Yeah, Game Freak
You need to put Ash's worst nightmare back in the ring
:011:BUGSY'S:011:METAPOD:011:
Bellsprout was where it's at. He messed up Ash's entire time. If muk didn't literally eat him, he would have lost right off the bat.

Actually let's bring this up:

In Kanto, Ash didn't really win his badges, half of them were handed to him. In Johto, he got a bit better but if things like terrain weren't a factor, he would have lost. That was especially the only way he beat Whitney. After those two season, Ash actually started to become better, he earned all his hoenn badges. In shinnoh he fully bonded and trained his team members to overcome all his losses. in Unova he didn't do anything truly special in his gym battles. But Unova was lackluster. And now in X and Y, he hasn't lost a single gym fight.

Just found those things interesting in terms of Ash's progression through the series.

Maybe he'll actually be able to win a league from the main series

Really, Gen 4 was like his best. Only to get hacked with Legendaries.... Never forgive, Game Freak.

I just hope they don't pull that again and just have Ash lose via Gen 2 style, at least he nearly won it in a fair way compared to Gen 4.

I just find it really dumb. The games, sure I could accept this. But in the anime they have made it a point that you need a bond that has been formed after years of hardship. Korrina had Lucario since she was a child in the anime, and had a huge record as a good and strong trainer. Yet lucario didn't obey her in mega form. Even Sycamore's garchomp didn't obey him right away when mega evolved( which reminds me, can we have him fight lysandre with them? That probably won't happen though...) So if this bond can't be obtained by professionals in the show, how does this kid get a mega? It just be weird and conflicting to have game cannon coexist with the anime's like that. I still like sawyer but it makes no sense.
I do hope Tierno at least gets a mega. And Ash greninja probably will have mega power, but why not just give Ash a mega ring at that point? Up until now, I fully expect Alan to give Ash charziardnite Y, but that doesn't seem to be happening but greninja is still cool as well.

:4pit:
After the defeat of the Master Core, Pit turned to walk away when he suddenly felt a rush of energy. It was the Master Core's power and with it he felt an immense rush of energy flowing around his body. After being teleported back to Skyworld the Goddess of Light, Palutena, informed him that Pit had gained even more strength than he had ever had. Strong enough to not need the Great Sacred Treasure to fell a God like Hades ever again. Eagerly Pit asked if he could finally fly on his own. Palutena's response was disheartening to say the least.
You thought I was going to let Pitty Pat fly?

I agree his team in DP was insane. His team in XY is as close as it can get though, likely second best.
Too bad a team full of Legendary Pokémon shut him down back then

Like, for real, did GF just gave up with that? Ash literally could have won that league, one legit league after all this time... Just to stop him with something no one normally has in the anime ever; Legendaries. And he got them with Pokeballs. Regular, Pokeballs. That's BS, at least they could have made it seem less like they were BSing with that.

By the way what is this Steven Universe related harassment I was hearing about?
I came back as that discussion finished...
Some girl made fan art Tumblr deemed to rasict/misogynistic/body shaming to the point there were multiple threads stalking her ****ting on her to the point that fanartist tried to kill herself. They then said that she's lying because she's white when she apparently isn't even white and said 'It's her fault we acted like this'. Someone who works on SU even saw it and said 'let people make whatever fanart they want' or something like that

IT'S THE ORIGINAL RAP SONG AGAIN! :D
I'm not going to lie : this is the first Yo-Kai Watch thing that I pay attention to and it look freaking awesome.

Ash isn't winning a main league( probably) until the last season .

I didn't expect him to win in Shinnoh, but they could have wrote that fight better. Hell Ash should have switched his team up a bit. Use charziard instead of Sceptile, and perhaps snorlax over glaie, and he would have had more of a fight. Still it was a good battle, but they really should have done something else to prevent him from winning. And why did they even let a guy with a team of legends enter the league?

Ash is never winning a main league.

That's why they make random tournaments he can actually win instead.
