Petil is usually better when evolved.

Sewaddle may have huge weaknesses to Fire and Flying but Leavanny was a solid member in my Black playthrough...
Although I think Lilligant is also both a great and underrated pokemon...

Thanks, it sounds like both are pretty good. I guess I'll go Leavanny this time around and then use Lilligant in my White 2 playthrough since she comes pretty early in that game.

God damn monster hunter has to many monsters that dig underground

At least since you're playing Generations you won't have to deal with Black Diablos.

It's never fun getting carted by that wannabe Triceratops.

Apparently the denial of environments shaping human culture is an idea of Marxist scholars

I find it weird that Marxism is invading the academic world

In sociology, I remember at first thinking Marxism sounded like a good idea, but the further I got into the course the more flawed I saw it.

Y'know, I kind of agree with Hillary Clinton on her view of these people. “They’re children of the Great Recession, and they are living in their parents’ basement. And so if you’re feeling that you are consigned to, you know, being a barista or, you know, some other job that doesn’t pay a lot and doesn’t have much of a ladder of opportunity attached to it, then the idea that maybe, just maybe, you could be a part of a political revolution is pretty appealing,”

I was just watching a video where a woman was saying that the insinuation the environment shapes cultures is racist

What is that persons explanation on the technologically superiority of certain cultures then? That they are genetically superior?

TBH I think saying the people are lucky the environment they are in gave them certain advantages that allowed them to become technologically superior is less racist than saying the people that weren't able to make those technologies are just genetically inferior.

The person also said that Europeans are just "more barbaric" than the rest of the world...

That reminds me that I really wish there were more scientific candidates that ran for president. Some of the best presidents were really pro science, Thomas Jefferson(Too many things to list quickly), Abraham Lincoln(big support for agricultural science on farms), Theodore Roosevelt(Studied biology, ornithology, and he really helped to preserve the environment in a time period where things were really bad when it came to preserving the environment), and John F. Kennedy.(NASA and other technological leaps.)

I'm trying to play through Omega Ruby beforeSun and Moon release but **** it's so boring. I can't stand gen 3's region.

Explain. I don't see how it's that boring especially when there's other regions that are a lot more bland and repetitive.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

At the end of my sociology course, we had a write a paper based on a type of media from one of the 3 major perspectives

and I choose the one based on Marxism because it was the easiest, lol

It's not the one I agreed with the most, but I got an A on the paper and that's what I needed to graduate

 

[Curious Villager]

Didn't Nintendo show interest in getting more into the mobile market? We don't really know that much in regards to the Switch and what it exactly is capable of. But if the Switch is more or less just a portable home console, I can see them developing a proper handheld successor for the 3DS that can probably better appeal to the mobile market...

This is the Hoshino-san of memes and fast.

Dank memes and visions of fast will come to you, but only if you like and retweet with "Well meme'd, Hoshino-san".

This is my creative art director, sometime on-camera star Hoshino san, but lemme tell you about his t-shirt game. #thingsatSEGA pic.twitter.com/mI7aBFvHxI

It's hard to describe without saying "too much water". I'm just not fond of it. Maybe also cause I have no nostalgia to the region? I don't know..

 

[Swamp Sensei]

They did but they're doing that with mobile games, not new hardware.

I still don't understand why people say too much water, if you know your way around you can breeze through the water routes like nothing.

 

[SuperMii3D]

Why are people still expecting the Switch to replace the 3DS. It's for sure replacing the WiiU but the 3DS still seems to be active. Heck, the 3DS is getting some WiiU games ported to it. It ain't dead yet boys.

 

[Curious Villager]

I suppose wether these mobile games is them just testing the waters or just leaving it at that is yet to be seen...

For now, it seems like the 3DS has at least until next year and maybe the year after before it will potentially run its course. If I'm not mistaken handheld and home console successors usually come between each other within one or two years apart so if there really is a 3DS successor in the works and this all isn't just PR talk, I suppose we'll probably be hearing more about that sometime late next year or the year after....

 

[Guybrush20X6]

I noticed, with Alolan Dugtrio, there's not a single final form Gen 1 pure ground type in Alola. Heck Cubone is the only one if you include basic stages and it evolves into a fire ghost.

Wonder if GF has some kinda agenda.

 

[PLATINUM7]

I still don't understand why people say too much water, if you know your way around you can breeze through the water routes like nothing.

Because you're still just breezing through water? It's not a complaint I have myself, though if it was the lack of variety offered by the water I could understand the criticism. "Too much water" isn't very constructive by itself.

Lol what? No **** they're repetitive, its Pokémon. Every game has been basically the same. That's part of the reason why I believe Sun and Moon are destined for success, because they're actually making a *new* game.

But people will just complain that GF changed the formula. Then people will complain if they go back to how things where. Then people will complain about it being changed again. Then people will complain about it going back to normal again. Then...
Basically everyone's opinion is wrong.

Wanna know why I think Sun and Moon will be a success? Because it's a ****ing Pokemon game.

Their will be those who will complain obviously, but the question is how many will? Its possible this could be a victory by comparison. And its too early to say which side is bigger, but I feel this "Trial" thing may go over well.

Wanna know why I think Sun and Moon will be a success? Because it's a ****ing Pokemon game.

No ****

I just learned that Pokémon Generations currently has no Japanese dub.

Odd. Will they ever get one?

From what I've heard, Pokemon Origins apparently wasn't that popular in Japan compared to the west.

I don't know if that's true though.

 

[Chrono.]

ORAS made surfing through Hoenn better, but I feel everyone forgot how slow and boring it was in the original R/S.

All the random encounters, the trainers, the fact that there were dead ends.

It was dumb as hell.

 

[Wolfie557]

I don't see the point in NS being a pretty perfect hybrid if a year later a portable will come out....

@Collective of Bears get over here and look at this.

Since I can't mention you for some dumb reason I'll quote this.

I've bought Corpse Party.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Bewear's prevo is the one that should get a plushie

They even have a place to stick the actual tags

 

[A Distant Demon]

Cause Ground type is boring.

It's not often I see an objectively bad opinion

 

[praline]

I'm still curious what that tag on preevo Bewear even is... also afraid to know.

Is it like a prolapsed rectum? I don't even know.

LMAO. You took the proper context out of my post, I don't mean it that way, I'm talking about terrain. People forget this, but whenever hoenn was on land it wasn't 90% flat like a region such as kanto or kalos. I really liked the volcanic and rocky areas, and even the water. The only thing it needed was more jungle terrain, to be honest. I just get tired of seeing bland trees and grass. I'd take Hoen's water over that, at least the paths were interesting to me.

Because you're still just breezing through water? It's not a complaint I have myself, though if it was the lack of variety offered by the water I could understand the criticism. "Too much water" isn't very constructive by itself.

When I mean breeze, I mean go through fast, all I had to do is get repellent and I'm ready to go, I don't even mind trainers as I often have to grind anyway. It's a lot less tedious than the caves on the gameboy pokemon games, that's for sure. Even then I usually use fly most of the time in pokemon games anyway. Or in ORAS Latios.

 

[Aurane]

Bewear has a tail. Maybe its on there.

 

[praline]

It's a joke bleh

 

[Z25]

Mimikyu being more yellow in that plush bothers me....

And can someone link me to Mimikyu's shiny? I just want a single image rather then the whole dex shiny forms.

So I just extra confirmed the one game I guessed on, I saw an update note I forgot about for Terraria that has them making a cryptic comment about the NX.

So yeah, 505 games on the developer list for the Switch is almost definitely Terraria.

Trying to figure out in my head whether or not the context further implies the NX is also somewhat on par with current-gen systems. . .

This update is intended to draw a line under Terraria on Wii U as it did with the other platforms - so we are afraid that no further updates for Wii U will be possible due to technical limitations. Bear in mind that you now have the same great content in two hits. There were more updates on the other platforms simply because they were released earlier. The content is the same. The logic for being unable to further update Wii U is, regrettably, the same as the ‘old gen’ machines – though the Wii U does admittedly have more resources than the 360/PS3, it is still a fraction as capable as PS4 and Xbox One, and we need all their available horsepower to take Terraria where we want to go next. This version will still be able to play online, so you can continue to enjoy it as long as you’re gaming on the Wii U platform. By the time the next update rolls out on PS4/Xbox One we’ll be very close to the launch of NX… But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Well, today is interesting.

As of today, I have become a Moderator of the Nintenzone. That said, I visit the thread often and can see simply spam and such pretty quickly. However, I also cannot do this over a phone and tend to work from mornings to the afternoon. (It's about 5 PM for me right now)

Anyway, glad to be of service to you all and I'll try my best to keep this section high-quality/within the rules.
