Waluigi and Daisy finally got their own amiibo...




...but at what cost?

Waluigi has derpy eyes, and Daisy has fat play-doh arms with absolutely no tone.
To be fair, Waluigi's derpy in general, but I think it's just that his eyes aren't looked at the right angle. Daisy also looks like she uses too much lipstick
It used Zap Canon in the trailer, at least that's what it looked like to me.
I highly doubt it'll be a physical attacker
You don't give a beetle giant '**** off' mandibles and not make it a good physical attacker

Good point. In that case Wild Change is the best electric type move it'd gain access to (assuming it'll be able to learn it) unless they give it a signature move that has a higher base power than 90

These could just be earlier models and the ones on retail will actually look better?

Of course.

I was just making fun of it.

The others look fine, it was just those two that were like that.

After owning the game for almost a year I finally learned which one's Callie and which one's Marie.

Team Callie if I actually remember to play by then.

Drampa has Frenzy, it raises Special Attack, but we don't know how it's actived
Bruxish's Dazzling makes it IMMUNE to priority
Based Tiki is Drizzle for Electric Terrain, which now increases power of Electric moves

Not all Pokémon's abilities have been revealed yet so far.
"Prevents moves with an increased Speed Priority from hitting"
Give this thing good speed and watch as the metagame burns, I hope other Pokemon get this ability too
Like, it doesn't ignore the priority, it outright ignores the move, and is effectivelly a permanent Quick Guard(much like Magic Bounce to Magic Coat)
Rip Talonflame
Also, Drampa is Normal/Dragon, yay for new type combinations!
which now increases power of Electric moves
It already did that tho

All of these new abilities are good. Discount Clear Body, discount Multiscale, double damage on switchins, immunity to priority, setting Electric Terrain up, being immune to everything but Sleep, boosting SpAtk, and becoming Hel. Any I missed?
I could have sworn it only prevented sleep. Damn

Just finished FMA. I can see why it's so beloved. Also depressing as hell

I just realized something about these new abilities. Dazzling could affect your team in Doubles, meaning VGC meta's going to be hype. There's also a possibility for a combination of Elekimaker and Definite Sleep if Narkoala gets a viable evolution or if something else gets that ability

Dazzling makes the Pokemon immune to priority moves, not negate ALL of them afaik

Someone gave Shadow 'Mephiles' eyes and it's creepier than probably intended.
There was a problem fetching the tweet

RE: New Pokémon

Tapu Koko's typing looks like it's either really good or just decent. Weak to only Poison and Ground, neutral to Steel, resistant to Fighting/Dark/Bug as well as Flying and Electric due to being Electric-type. And of course, having Electric Terrain as an Ability is damn good as it gives it immediate power right from the start + STAB. Also, having said Ability means it doesn't care about Sleep. Hype! Hope it has a good stat distribution.

Togedemaru is ****ing adorable - too bad it's 4x weak to Earthquake. The rest look cool too. Vikavolt seems like it's a special attacker to me; it could also be physical (lol) but I don't see the point. Bug Buzz + Thunderbolt everyone, also Volt Switch or something. Drampa looks like Valoo from The Wind Waker, hahaha.

Evolution screen reminds me of BW's:

Considering Tapu Koko's called 'the guardian deity', wouldn't that mean it's a legendary?

I should go back into checking stuff from fanfiction.

Only interested in great stories. So far I only looked at Kid Icarus and then I lost interest because I read so much.

Yes!

This is one of the times when knowing a bit of Japanese pays off, for I've seen some Japanese magazine leaks...

The Blue Exorcist anime will have the original voice cast return, and Hiroyuki Sawano (along with another composer) will be doing the soundtrack. This is great and I can't wait!

All in all, my feelings are best expressed in gif form:

I'm trying to learn Japanese. How long did it take you to learn Hiragana & Katana off by heart?

Took me a few weeks to be comfortable reading in kana.

You ought to be patient, but it's not hard.

This said, I still have difficulties with some of them sometimes.

Kanji on the other hand...
