Social NintenZone Social 4 - Bring It In, Guys!

[Chrono.]

Well, I just learned "Ability and Moveset Spoilers" is a thing

People like to find out what moves pokemon learn naturally?

Personally I always look up when the pokemon learns a new move

I always find it annoying I'm leveling the thing up level after level and it doesn't learn any moves or doesn't learn good moves

"When's this damn thing actually get some attacks"

Some people just like going into games completely fresh.

Make Captain America bi and everyone gets happy

nope. as an example, Prankster Taunt won't have an effect. Thunder Wave won't, Will-O-Wisp won't, Encore won't etc.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

About time Dark got a buff because it really needed it
Mega Banette couldn't even celebrate the new Mega turn order mechanics lol
Only Sableye, Klefki and m!Banette are the only ones I can think of that get hurt by this and maybe Thundurus and Tornadus if anyone uses them for that. Though that just means Sableye will be the to go Prankster user
And I'm assuming it's just moves targeted at the Dark Pokemon, so things like self-targetting status moves can still be used

Quite frankly, the Prankster nerf feels forced. I mean, Prankster wasn't broken before at all. If anything it gave status users the buff they needed. It doesn't help that the buff was given to only Dark types of all types, easily one of the best in the meta.

>Dark type
>One of the best in the meta
What the hell are you smoking?

I just realized there's no 100% official names for the SM protagonists yet.
If Chicken Hat's default name actually is Selene then I'll have to go with.

Rei

Am I the only one that thinks Rei is more of a masculine name? Why does so many girls in anime have it?

I say Rei is a girl's name but Ray is a guy's name.
I'm weird.

Time for the next Pokemon poll!

This was the one I promised a few weeks back. I originally thought about making a poll relating to everyone's thoughts on the XY series as a whole when the final XY&Z came out, but because it hit me that not everyone has watched those episodes, I needed to make the poll more inclusive. The solution? A poll related to all of the Pokemon anime as a whole.

In honor of the Sun and Moon anime series starting tomorrow, here's the question for everyone:

What was your favorite series of the Pokemon anime?

Answer in the Strawpoll below!

http://www.strawpoll.me/11668226

You can only pick one so choose wisely!

I think most people already know which one I picked, and I don't need to explain it since I've done that numerous times in the past.

Voted for Diamond & Pearl series, which was also the last series I watched.

I mean, I guess it's because "rei" in portuguese means "king", maybe it also means something in japanese

 

[Tree Gelbman]

So an enemy Sombra and I were trying to hack the same health pack. When I hacked it before her her response shocked me more than a click bait article.

She punched me in the face, and ran off without killing me. I was too shook to kill her back.

 

[ChikoLad]

I had a dream last night that the Sonic content in LEGO Dimensions was shoved into Pokemon Sun & Moon and the only way to play it was to buy that game.

I would say "go back to sleep", but that's what happens when I do.

 

[Baskerville]

Anthony outlived Ridley though.

Also did a sick flip.

Can Brash do a flip?

He can flip a table. Does that count?

 

[FalKoopa]

I say Rei is a girl's name but Ray is a guy's name.

I think the same, but I pronounce the names rather differently.

Not bad.
Still not as good as the Advanced Battle op.

 

[Kirby Dragons]

Teen Titans Go! just went way too far. They had an episode fully animated in Teen Titans' style, and the whole purpose of the entire episode was to make fun of the original series.

 

[Smooth Criminal]

I've had, uh, mixed success playing as Sombra---meaning I'm usually on the receiving end of an asskicking, not the other way around. I really need to stop winging stuff and get down to actually figuring out what the hell I'm doing. Figuring out good routes on each map is probably priority number one, and I guess trying to optimize healthpack hacking comes at a close second. Translocation gimmicks, too.

I just had to pick one of the hardest heroes in the game to play effectively.

Smooth Criminal

 

[wedl!!]

Yeah and even then the decision to do that was stupid (coming from a black guy)

Mokoto isn't bad because when you watch anime, you learn that Japan loves to use white features on their characters. There's rarely any Asian features on them and Mokoto isn't Japanese. She's a robot, she has no race.

People just assume that if it's from Japan then everyone should be Japanese.

It's why I fear that if GITS gets great then more anime will get adapted and we might get Black Lagoon love action movie but will make Revy (a character who has an American background) Japanese because where the source material is from


AoT is already a mess with it's movie adaptation with people complaining about Eden being played by a Japanese man

see, there wouldn't be an issue if the studio didn't attempt to make her look more Asian"

and the reason there was no Asian lead is because there are "no Asian stars"

if it were just "GITS but in America because" it'd just be a ****ty adaptation, but noooo, you just gotta throw that in there.

If thats the case, then when it comes to people wanting specific characters to become gay or lesbian they should just shut up. Like people who want Captain America to be homosexual. That would be ****ing stupid.

yeah, wouldn't want those filthy gays pilfering my media

 

[Smooth Criminal]

...except Mokoto isn't "just a robot."

Click on the link and it'll tl;dr itself. Without getting into the transhumanism themes that are prevalent throughout GitS, she was originally human and ethnically Japanese.

I didn't even realize that somebody had said this, lol

"Pokémon Sun & Moon Breaks 3DS Record With 10 Million Worldwide Shipments"

Congrats, Sun and Moon

 

[Chrono.]

This is what the Death Note movie is doing and yeah I wish GiTS would've done the same.

Sweet, Id watch that. Whats the point of getting mad at a cartoon, life is short

 

[Soul.]

Worldwide initial shipments for Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon have topped 10 million copies, Nintendo announced.

The number is the highest ever recorded for 3DS software.

It prints money. This is ridiculous

It's been a great 20 years for this franchise

 

[Deleted member]

Re-watched all the SM trailers, someone help me contain the hype
Hard to think we're one day away from it(sorry, Europe)
I know most already know this, but please keep spoilers in spoiler tags, not only are there those that still won't have the game but those that do won't play as the same pace as others.

This game is gonna break some records on first-day sales, isn't it?
Nintendo and GF sure know how to hype something up.

Also, after re-watching the trailers, it reminded me of something: you can host your own online competitions
This would make a NintenZone tournament much easier to do as FCs are a pain to add.
But still, it doesn't seem like many are interested and we all know how Opossum 's tournament ended up

Oh boy Boon's stirring the pot with Injustice 2:

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Of course it'll be Sub-Zero because we already had Scorpion in the first one.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

And this'll be Spawn because Spawn is always brought up in regards to Netherrealm guest fighters.
Hellboy would be great though.

Sun and Moon's anime OP.

Very catchy indeed, but I still think the XY&Z opening reigns supreme.

It's also worth noting that Ash catches a Grubbin during that opening segment. I wonder if he'll actually catch the same Pokemon in a future episode.

 

[FalKoopa]

Remember when Pokémon XY's 3 million on opening day was impressive?

Wow, this is a huge jump.

I'm rooting for Buffy because she feels like a really out there choice.

Spawn is great though.

Wonder how much of a part Pokemon GO played in the increase between then and now.
They're gonna be rolling the money though.

Spoiler

This'll probably be them.

I don't think it did that much.

Really, Pokémon GO and Pokémon Sun/Moon were barely if ever marketed together. Nintendo did a good job marketing Sun/Moon itself. The insane leaks and speculation also helped generate interest.

My tumblr feed right now is a weird mixture of Pokemon hype and memes with a ****ton of gay anime skaters and I love it

Mood right now:

 

[Coricus]

Well this is depressing. Mega Man can feel true sadness in his own core.

At least him not having a new game for years make much more sense now.

http://gonintendo.com/stories/268678-mega-man-has-true-sadness-at-his-core-says-creator

Gosh darn it, what's with all the depressing concepts crawling out of the woodwork lately?

I hope cinnamon bun can feel true happiness, too, and if not now then someday. And not just in death or some depressing crud like that. I hope someday he feels needed not because he has some task to fulfill, but because he knows people actually care about him.

Just saying this.
It seems like he'll catch Litten later on.
Anime concept art of all 3 stages.
Litten becomes the starter that goes final for this season.

Anyone remember Nikki?

no, not really

 

[ChikoLad]

Sonic Pack (as well as all of the others out tomorrow) DLC content can now be downloaded in LEGO Dimensions, if anyone wants to download the content and have it ready for tomorrow.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Work on homework tomorrow, or play moon tomorrow

Hard choice

 

[Deleted member]

SM is out in Japan and Serebii has started its coverage
Oh boy, here we go

Work on homework tomorrow, or play moon tomorrow

Hard choice

You have the rest of the weekend for homework, focus on what's important
Don't actually follow my advice

Always tag @AEMehr when talking about Nikki.

Too bad Ron would rather run for president than playing as Hellboy again.

Spawn will get my vote because he's Spawn.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

tfw people still care for Teen Titans Go.

When better shows like Steven Universe exist.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Anyone remember Nikki?

I pray that Nintendo will not abruplty kill the online service like they did with Swapnote after ****ing child predators completely ruined it for everyone else.

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

No matter how many times people beg or even bribe me to watch Teen Titans Go, I never will. Anything that consists of mostly juvenile humor with no sense of cleverness behind it is not what I call quality.

It's the same reason why I will never give Clarence or Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures a chance. Because zit popping, meme jokes, and jokes about germophobia are the epitome of humor.
