The only way there's more new Pokemon is if there's more in the National Pokédex (which they did before in DP).

But that's a long shot as it is.

You're better off just accepting that what we see is what we get.

The latter three seem to be the Starter signature moves.

Assuming this because they all fit them just by the name alone (Throat Chop especially since that's a common wrestling move).

Anyway, kinda annoyed that Litten got the shaft here. It could be useful, but one gives a free crit and the other is Reflect and Light Screen in one move.
That makes sense, though it's weird Rowlett's move is "Laser Focus" instead of some archery named move
Is it confirmed they're all status moves? Throat Chop sounds like a damaging move tbh
And also
>Popplio gets Light Screen and Reflect in one move
Hell yeah, Entermaid looks to be a support Pokemon as it is. Hope it gets Heal Bell or something like that

Also, are we ever gonna find out what is the so-called secret the starters had?

I've tried searching around everywhere, but does anybody know what the Pikachu with Ash's caps do yet? Just clothing for fun? New Pikachu forms (that hopefully make him stronger)? Or do we not know yet?

I don't think anyone knows. After all, they scrubbed the names and stats of the new Pokemon.

Laser Focus and it's description made me think it's about it taking aim, like most snipers do. So it fits with its archer motif.

As for the Starters, I think it's just Z-Moves or just nothing at all.

I refuse to accept these results! The data miners rigged the demo! It was datamined by Russians! Polygon is the media arm of M$!! Gamefreak had over 3,000 New Pokemons but were mysteriously deleted by staff smashing their monitors!! Professor Oak needs help getting to his car and doesn't have the stamina to continue being a professor! He's also on drugs!

I can grab it by the Litten! I can do that as a star!!!!

You forgot how he's having an affair with Professor Juniper

Death Battle stuff

RIP Ramona, right in front of Scott as well.
Animation was on point.

HULK SMASH!
It's either Doomsday or Asura he's fighting. Broly got deconfirmed. I'm going with Doomsday because SA love Marvel vs DC plus it's the more popular suggestion.

Next gen gaming is truly here.

Battlefield 1 confirmed for Wii U

I'm off of team litten and on to team rowlett
Same here. Although I don't dislike Beltigre, I just like Robingroot more.

Holy **** this sounds ****ing awful
...
What's your least favourite pokemon btw?
Used to be Jynx, but after I beat the whole Elite Four and Champion almost solely thanks to it, I just can't dislike her anymore.

For each gen:
1. Nidoran (F)
2. Wooper
3. Milotic (damn Recovery spammer)
4. Combee
5. Emolga
6. Binacle
7. Togedemaru

It is up, and there's some important stuff.

If you can't watch the video, here's a summary.
HMs Removed with moves like Fly or Surf as TMs now.
98 new moves, 29 are Z-Moves, 3 of them are TMs
11 Special Z-Moves
Dig's TM was replaced with Leech Life (LOL)
145 new items, 58 of them related to Z-Moves, 16 for Silvally
New Held item similar to Dire Hit
New Evo stone (Ice Stone probably)
New item that cures any aliment (Like Lava Cookie, Casteliacone, etc.)
RIP Bike
New Ball probably for UBs
So, Dig isn't a TM anymore? :(

Apparently woodpeckers and toucans are related
Are people still confused by this?

This is the same company that turned a Robin into a Falcon, a Starling into an Eagle, and a Pidgeon into a Pheasant....A Woodpecker turning into a Toucan makes a lot more sense than either of those....

It would seem confusion got nerfed...
You only hit yourself a 3rd of the time instead of half the time...

Thank christ for that!

Dang, 160x90 is tiny

Computers running on MS-DOS or Windows 95 back in the day had resolutions greater than that. lol

a Robin into a Falcon
Going to admit that I first thought, "wait they turned :4robinm: into :4falcon:? :laugh:

Paralyze only takes half the speed and Confusion is only 1/3 of the time instead of 1/2
Wonder if the other status ailments got nerfed too

With Rogue One coming out soon, being set to be the definitive story told in Episode 4's opening credits, I wonder... Just how many different Death Star Plan thefts were there in the old continuity? I've never read any of the books or comics but even then I can name three. Battlefront 2, the Rebels attack the Death Star Directly to grab the plans; Empire at War, the entire Rebel campaign; and last but not least, that DS game where you played a Twillek with one metal head thing, grabbing the plans.

Any others?

Matt Mercer is A+, glad to see him there.

Robbie Draymond too, liked him a lot in Tales of Zestiria.

If they are making balance changes I hope they buffed bug

There is no reason it needed to be nerfed by making fairy resistant to it

I like the P5 voice cast.

I just hope it doesn't go through the P4 phase where majority of the cast changes voice actors because the only characters to still have their OG voice actors from the PS2 game was Yu, Yosuke and Yukiko

This ain't the first time Xander's done voicework for Atlus.

Hell, he's already done it on a Nintendo console.



I think we just caught some chaff in the wheat.

(Any excuse to push Dagda and how great SMT4:A is, I'll take it)

Is this a patch or an essay on politics?

Gamexplain mentioned in their second preview that Popplio's lowest stats are its Special attack and Speed, which leads me to believe that specific Popplio had a nature that lowers special attack
I hope its not going to be just a slower Serperior, because that would mean I only like one of the Gen 7 starters.

They uploaded a "History of LP's" video on "The Game Theorists" channel

I watched it to see if they would mention Slowbeef, and they did

He's credited for being the creator of the first video LP (with commentary)

Kind of funny his channel has so "few" subscribers though

Great!

Now the AI never hitting themselves won't feel as bull ****!

Of course us hitting ourselves 5 times every single time will feel worse now. . .

Judging by it's supposed signature move, I'm more inclined to believe it's a wall
