i didnt buy pokken bcause i assumed there would be an NX port and is still pretty much the only game i want ported.

It's like the only game that ISNT being ported at this point.

Goddammit nintendo

Pokken is definitely getting a port down the line.

The Arcade version (which allegedly didn't do very well) is still getting new content and there is no way they can expect people to stay on Wii U when Switch comes out.

The Arcade version actually is rather popular, it didn't do well on one arcade, which was misreported as it being a failure in general.

Super Mario 3D World, Tropical Freeze, Rodea*, the Zelda remasters, and Nintendo Land are currently the only retail Wii U games I have that aren't rumored or confirmed to be ported to Switch, whereas Smash, Mario Kart 8, and Xenoblade X are currently the only ones that are.

*Yes, it came with the Wii version for those who are curious.

The Wii U exclusive retail games I have that don't seem to be getting a Switch port so far are the Zelda remasters, Hyrule Warriors, Pokkén, 3D World, Captain Toad, Mario Party 10, LEGO City: Undercover, Star Fox Zero/Guard.

I think Pokkén, Hyrule Warriors, 3D World, and Star Fox are all potential candidates though.

Jesus ****ing hell. Land on Ula'Ula fight Hau, he one shots every member of my team with Raichu.

But instead of going back to a save the plot continued. Is that a thing for all his fights this time?

An Office worker just spotted me when she was bending down to touch her toes and saw me through her legs...Game freak what the heck?

also Another evolution!!!
GOLISOPOD IS A FRIKKING BEAST!!!!

Eating up hits and dishing out huge damage! It's ability actually works because if you manage to bring it's health down enough it bolts before you can finish it...Plus getting access to the buffed Leech Seed will make it a pretty strong pokemon overall, it gets Sucker Punch as well which helps deal with it's lower speed as well...

A bit more training and I'll have yet another evolution...

I think I'm going to have to wait until poni island to get another Wimpod. None more are spawning here.

It's only available through "chasing" here.

If I knew I only had a limited number to catch, I would have kept soft resetting

Edit: literally after I wrote that I tried turning my game off and on. They spawned again

Seconded.
This thing is ripped, I was lucky that it didn't Psychic my Salandit

So people are already shiny hunting in Sun and Moon...I'm like barely halfway through the game at this point...
I wasn't Shiny hunting and I got a Shiny Zubat in the first 24 hours of my playthrough. Like how? What makes it even more ironic is that I have the version with the Legendary Bat Pokemon.
The volcano. It and cubone are all you run into. They are also in the area after the volcano
Nah, you can also find Magby as well, alongside those 2.

If they could port the Wii version of Rodea to the Switch, that would make me a happy man. That game is an underrated gem.

That or making the Wii version downloadable for the Wii U.

Ok, you'll MOSTLY just find cubone and Salandit.

....

Also, cubone and Kangaskhan in the same place... Theory confirmed

I'm in that area and a Cubone just called for help and Kangaskhan showed up...
I don't think it's a coincidence, GF is getting too self-aware

Wait, Wimpod is in limited quantities? Thanks for the heads up!

Also, I think we need another Stadium-esque game. A full 3D game with just battles wouldn't be too hard to make methinks. Especially because how everyone's got an easier way of doing things. Though minigames should be brought back

He's only limited on the second island. He spawns naturally on the 4th island. I'm not that far yet.

I think he respawns once a day though. But seemingly only if you reset the game between that time

I still don't understand why you still can't catch a wild Pokémon when there's more than one on the field.

Both Colosseum & XD: Gale of Darkness were able to do so FOUR FRIGGIN' GENERATIONS AGO. :glare:

Also, how soon can I get some Quick Ballz? They're my go-to Poké Ball, man.

Why have a game that's just battles when you can have a full on Pokemon game?
If they wanted to add minigames, just have something in the menu to drop you into Minigames

I'd honestly have a new Mario Tennis that's much better than an updated port.

That all really depends if the improvements will really give us more than new characters and more Amiibo functionality (Since Daisy and the others are not compatible with the original game). Like I don't know, less lazy gimmick courts?

Jesus, Persuit's animation is cool as ****, the target gets sweat drops and steps back before getting pounced. I think we need a video showing all move animations as soon as Bank is compatible (Dark Void and Hyperspace Fury fail if used on anything other than Darkrai or Hoopa) or if someone gens them
