So Golduck in my Pokemon game is now a Psychic/Dark type. The headaches of the Psyduck were so intense that Golduck went insane.

It looks very similar to the classic Golduck except it's dark grey and it's forehead gem is bright pink, and pulsating.
Geez.
That's kinda...

Dark.

I need help naming my lynx Pokemon. They're temporarily named Clalynx and Lynlash they're both Normal.

They look kinda like Litten and Torracat but more lynx-like.
One idea I have for the first one is Pawlynx. Maybe Nailynx for the second form? Nail + Lynx. Similar scheme to your idea.

Wikipedia helps me name a lot of my Pokemon.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx

I'd call the first stage Lyncidum or Lynxidum, a combination of "lynx" and the name for a lynx's reflective eyes (tapetum lucidum).

I'd call the second stage Pawdinus, a combination of "paw" and the Iberian lynx's species (Lynx pardinus). I don't know if you care about the specific species though.

That actually sounds really awesome. And Dark- no pun intended.

For its design, you should also add crazed eyes of some kind. Not like Midnight's though. Something more like Jungle Book's Anaconda hypnotic stare eyes.

If Megas really are over, I think they need to turn megas in future generations into permanent forms that don't require holding an item

No stat boosts, just Huge Power
It'll become buddies with Mega Fug quickly

The only thing that currently balances out TR is the fact that you need to survive a hit to be able to use it.
Otherwise, a Pokemon with full investment on HP and an attacking stat can just go wild from the start
And it has the same BST as Groudon and Kyogre.
Its mega has to be at least as stupid as Primals.

A lot of pokemon have real dark dex entires.

Another pokemon of mine called Aracnise(Bug/Dark type trapdoor spider) in its dex entries would basically say without saying that it eats small pokemon and children.

This is what started the whole problem with Mega Fug, it's only going to make things worse

I know, I mean, I was just making a joke about it being Dark type.

So a modder out there is working on an Arcade Mode for SFV on PC.


It's promising so far.

I'm sure some megas will be banned that are currently being used, but other megas won't

I've started reading through some of Thor's comics and I think I've found the best panel I've ever seen.

I feel like this Switch rumour may have slipped under the radar so just in case...

I think I'm good with having the Wii U and PC versions, but for those of you who missed it the first time around, it's a fantastic game and you should totally get it if you need to expand your Switch library when it comes out.

Now my signature is complete with Dillinger fodderizing Bellamy like the weakling he is.

I feel that your title is a reference to something.

Is it a restaurant that happens to be named after him?

More like he is named after it. It's kind of a historical spot for Calumet Park, being a drive-in restaurant that's been around for years. Never ate there myself, but I know their food is great.

Pretty sure he would be disgusted about the menu given his half-Fishman heritage.

She also says the Mario X Rabbids RPG is officially titled as "Rabbids Kingdom Battle"

If true, odd to exclude Mario in the title.

Maybe the game doesn't feature Mario characters in a traditional sense, and it will just be a bunch Rabbids cosplaying as Mario characters or something weird like that.

It's the only way I can justify this game even existing in my head, anyway. :V

I honestly think that leakers have super vague information + guessing.

When was the last time a Nintendo Direct leaked?
Pretty much the entire March Direct last year. Kinda happy that it did because there was nothing interesting about it.

Rabbids Kingdom Battle: Featuring Mario from the Mario series.
Hey, it worked for Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne didn't it?


Featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series.

Probably better to do more listening to what she has to say first than going in with the expectation of saying what you need to say immediately. She might calm down if she is just able to get things off her chest.

I'm like that IRL. :4megaman:

The question is how to talk to some who doesn't want to talk, and the answer, personally, is don't talk to them. If they don't want to talk, respect that they don't want to talk and move on. But I guess that depends on the situation in general.

Decided to finally play my copy of Dungeon of Elements.

My, what a pretty neat spin on :4drmario: gameplay.

So far gives me ideas on the Dr. Mario sprite sheet that I really need to get back on.

> Kirby fans still want to buff Kirby to Universal

> Ignores that he struggled with weaker foes like Sectonia and Star Dream after his defeat of Magalor

Do people know what the definition of an outlier is anymore?

I think people tend to forget that Kirby is literally 8 inches high and all of the foes he fights are also miniature when you look at their size in comparison to him, as is the entire universe he resides in.

He's powerful in the context of his universe, but ONLY in the context of his universe (and other similarly miniature universes). You have to bend the rules to give him a fighting chance against anything that isn't miniature.

Is anyone ready for the possibility of already going back to Smash speculation come next Thursday?

Can we handle it again so soon?

Are we al mentally prepared?

Will we all survive without killing one another with our own limbs?

Time will tell.

Only if people can accept that Brash the Bear is our Lord and Savior for Smash. :troll:

Nah, I'm done with that.
