So, the government suddenly declared 500 and 1000 rupee notes invalid to fight black money. Dunno if it's going to be effective, but it certainly is inconvenient.

Though at least we're getting prettier designed notes.

So I've been thinking about Pikipek's Final Evolution, its signature move, and its viability.
Toucannon's signature move is called Beak Blast. Hugely damaging Flying type move that takes a turn to charge, not unlike Sky Attack. However, while these moves are normally pretty bad outside of the story mode, I think this one could be worth it.

If the foe hits it while charging, they get burned. That could be insanely good. It ruins physical sweepers that don't run Guts/Facade. Granted Toucannon could use more speed to use it properly, but in lower tiers I can see it having a niche. Add in Roost, plus Skill Link boosted Bullet Seed and Rock Blast...and I'm excited. Thoughts?
Beak Blast has good potential. I mean, for once, the non-Fly/Dig/Dive 2-turn move does not make the Pokemon entirely defenseless, which I think some other 2-turn moves need. That being said, it would've helped if Toucannon had more Speed, since Beak Blast going first would make the opposing trainer have to risk either not attacking and not getting burned or attacking and potentially getting burned.

Its also in my right not to vote, and no one can hold that against me.

True.

You're essentially revoking your voice which is key on our government, but do as you please. It's not illegal or even unethical.

Especially if you live in a state like California like I do, so it's pretty pointless to vote for the president here because the huge majority of people always make their minds, unless you were to make a movement about it anyway. Swing states matter a lot though. My GF lives in Michigain and I know who she's voting for.

The only thing that bothers me about Mudsdale is its signature move.

Is there ANY reason to use High Horsepower over Earthquake? HH just does five less damage and is five percent less accurate. I don't get it...am I missing something?

One thing I noticed on Alolan Sandslash; its stat changes are superior to Regular Sandslash because basically its Sp. Att is the only thing nerfed, which wasn't great to begin with.

Comparison:
Original: 75/100/110/45/55/65
Alolan: 75/100/120/25/65/65

It takes 20 out of Sp.Att, and puts 10 in both defenses. That's a really cool buff.

Oh the downside, Alolan Sandslash becomes Ice/Steel, which gives it two 4x weaknesses of two very common types, Fire and Fighting. However it has pure weather immunity, Poison immunity, and 4x resistance to Ice.

I think that if its caught in Hail, it could easily dispatch Fire-Types with Earthquake and SD Icical Crash can severely dent most Fighting-Tyoes. All thing on the table, I think Alolan Sandslash has a good chance of being a serious threat.

Alolan Sandslash@Life Orb
Nature: Jolly
EVs: 6 DEF, 252 Attack, 252 Speed
Ability: Slush Rush
Moves: Icical Crash, Iron Head, Earthquake, Swords Dance

This setup will be one of my first tests. It has great coverage, but it will need support from 'mons who can tank Fire/Fighting for it. Chandelure is probably a winner in that regard, but until I test it, I'm not confirming how good this'll actually be. But I got faith in it.

So here's something interesting, contains mild post game Spoilers.

Apparently the black edgy UB is just a rare Pokemon.

People are speculating it might form a trio with Lunaala and Solgaleo.

So... the Nintendo Switch just liked the Smash Bros. facebook account back and animal crossing account as well. And the only accounts it has like thus far are the ones featured in the trailer for the Switch.

https://www.reddit.com/r/nintendo/comments/5busr6/the_official_nintendoswitch_facebook_just_liked_a/



Again, just giving updates. I'm still the messenger. Doesn't mean I firmly believe this stuff lol.
Smash Bros and Animal Crossing are the two Nintendo franchises I already felt like Nintendo's been subtly implying they've been working on for Switch, with the Animal Crossing app announcement saying it would work with console games without specifying anything and the Smash Bros Ballot saying the results might be used for future games.

I mean granted people have brought up the possibility that MEOW coupons are meant to be the smartphone interactivity and will simply have that patched into New Leaf, but then the app's delayed time was also positioned to be during the same month as the Switch's release, so it's possible that a Switch Animal Crossing and New Leaf could both use MEOW coupon interactivity.

Anyone know what happened to The Game Direct? (the best did you know gaming type videos out there).

She hasn't posted a video or tweeted anything for over a year.....

I'm actually worried. Maybe something happened.

Who knows? :3
So the leaks begin, huh? How am I going to survive for 10 days on here not looking at any sort of Sun and Moon related spoiler besides having it all hidden in spoiler tags? There could be a slip-up at some point. :p

For some reason everyone in this country whines and complains when they color our money, even if it's more or less just slightly different shades

But it makes my job significantly easier. Don't even have to look at the money to know which one I'm giving the customer

Unlike old $20 and $50, which look almost identical on first glance

Also, wish we got purple dollars

That's why I love Canad's money. There's no way you can confuse them!

I don't have a complete list, but



Apparently UB-04 is also version exclusive. The stupid pillar thing and the origami monster. Sun/ Moon respectively,

Boys, let the speculation begin.

I'd still keep your hype in check... but this is still interesting IMO.

Watch as the only characters we get in a hypothetical Smash 4 Switch ends up being Toon Zelda and Pichu!:troll:

Also, all US notes are of the same size iirc. That is problematic for blind users.

I was going to post these lol. They are pretty interesting, so we'll see what happens.

And I'm getting hyped for Sun and Moon. It needs to release!

I'm glad to hear the moveset changes. Also the story seems pretty popular so I'm avoiding it at all costs. Should be really satisfying!

I realized I absolutely love the main part of this song. It's so weird and exciting and upbeat all at once, expressing the new frontiers provided by a whole other dimension. It's so good that it makes the rest of it sound like filler by comparison.

Double wrapped treat, indulge at your own risk.

Turtonator and Drampa are reversed there.

So they leaked all the past trainers that appear in the Battle Tree

The ones we know:
Red and Blue
Wally
Cynthia

The others:
Sina
Dexio
Anabel
Grimsley
Colress

They also leaked the trainer sprites for Anabel and Grimsely. Both have completely new models



I like this design much more than her old one.

Meanwhile, Grimsley's new design....


Wow, looks like we got really unlikely with that gambling habit lately. Poor guy.

Except for Moon's lack of Swoll, it's significantly better in exclusives
