A remix of the RSE gym battle. I miss the days of my childhood where pokemon was so amazing to me.

The game isn't even out yet, and i've already been insta-gibbed 3 seconds after spawning before I knew what I was doing and then rage-quit.
:061:
I can always appreciate a good Metal remix...Heonn Gym battle is my favourite Gym battle theme and this remix definitely did it justice...

IDK Flygon doesn't look much like an antlion to me.


No one gets this reference lol



Also i'm judging every Disney roster purely on whether it has stitch or not.

That looks more like my nightmares.

I believe you're thinking about the KH game concept that Dissidia originally was, which was Kingdom Hearts and Disney characters fighting each other. Then Disney went against the idea at some point and eventually the concept became Dissidia: Final Fantasy.
Nah, I know what he's talking about. It was concept art for a fighting game that feature Beast, Ursula, the Sheriff of Nottingham, King Louie, and John Silver all fighting, IIRC.
Precisely:
https://gamingreinvented.com/tag/buena-vista-games/

It looked like a cool idea, and is still one I'd love to see revisted, as it has a lot of potential.

Whenever a supposed leak breaks and then countless branching leaks pop up mere days after it always strikes me as a bit too coincidental.

If only coattails weren't so much fun to ride on.
True, at least it's focused on something no one else has tried to make up yet, so I'll give it that, but I don't think that's reason to give it credit just yet.

We'll see what happens.

Another thing I was confused about...Fomantis I thought looked very much like a bug, but I gave it a pass since I got a Petilil vibe from it, but Lurantis is literally a Praying Mantis...I mean Bug/Grass gives it a bunch of extra weakness, but it's something that just makes sense for the Pokemon...still a cool Pokemon though, I love Praying Mantises, amoung my favourite insects...
I have to agree it's a bit weird, it seems like it's based off of a aggressive mimicry, as it lures in opponents to take them down similar to how a predator would lure in prey by either looking like one or the host. However, it looks like a Bug, so it's a Grass type that looks like a Bug type that's pretending to be a Grass type to lure in foes that are likely Bug types or the like. A bit of a complex way to represent the concept to say the least.

Speaking of non-bug type bugs though, if they're planning on doing more, they should do one based off of the carnivorous caterpillar. It'd be another nice twist on the typical caterpillar archetype we usually get per generation if they mixed it up both in personality and typing, particularly since the last one (the Scatterbug line) played it straight in the previous generation.

Nice to see BlazBlue: Central Fiction made it on the lineup. Smash WiiU and Pokken are great to see on there as well.

Carnivorous caterpillars would be neat...especially since they can be found in Hawaii...

My most wanted Bug would be a Bug/Ice type Weta though...Weta are found in New Zealand and since we got a Koala and Birds of Paradise already pretty much any of those Pacific islands including New Zealand has potential for some really cool Pokemon concepts...

After that a Bug/Psychic Moon Moth would be really cool...as a counterpart to Volcarona possibly...

I didn't even know there was a gundam fighting game. . .


Only Gundam games i've played are two of the Dynasty Warriors games (Which are awesome btw although the second blows the first out of the water) which is the reason I am watching the first season. (Seen above for the Fed Force post)


Also Dissidia at a tourny would be unbelievably hype but I don't think the PS4 port has even been announced let alone released.

But you know what would be hype? A Steven Universe fighting game with all your favorite gems (and some humans). Other than the obvious Cheese Puff, Amethyst and Peridot would be my mains if it were real.

But I doubt Rebecca Sugar would really be interested in this sort of idea.

Dissidia wouldn't be an issue in Japan, they have arcades over there.

Gundam Wing Endless Duel is one of the best fighting games in the 4th Generation and you should try it out

Man it feels so weird knowing i'm 21 years old today. More so because I vividly remember the day when I turned 11 10 years ago and yet it feels like it was a couple of days ago.

4 final evolutions for the starters?

Yeah I don't buy that for a second, because it sounds like it's piggybacking off that seemingly legit leak that said Rockruff was gonna have 4 split evolutions based on each island.

Honestly every text leak that pops up after yesterday's info is automatically fake until otherwise.

Happy birthday then.

As usual, I'm late to the party.

RANDOM MUSINGS OF AN EARTHWORM

POKEMON: Formantis and Lurantis are neat! A reversal of the orchid mantis (flower mimicking a bug rather than the opposite) is an interesting idea I haven't seen done before. Mudbray is alright, Mudsdale is worth it though. Gumshoos really brings to mind Ace Attorney Gumshoes rather than the infamous presidential candidate. Minior is odd, I get the feeling it will have a ludicrously tanky evolution. Oricorio has an interesting gimmick, and I like its design. Alola forms are intriguing. Love Exeggutall, it's hilarious! Snowshrew and Icepix are interesting too.

Well, it seems the Starter leak may have been true after all. I'm really torn for once! Robin Hoot screams "Smash" or "Pokken" to me. Same with Armor King. That said, Selkie is so majestic, I'm really tempted to use her. It'll be interesting to see if the gimmicky Cat Pokemon is true. Please let me breed a hideous cat bug! Also interested to see the rumored sea cucumber Mon. If it's real, it is 100% getting nicknamed Kevin. Be interesting to see if there really are no Gyms.

UGGH WHY ISNT NX REVEALED YET: Really? More NX news!? First, there's the Eurogamer article. Seems very credible, and not too outlandish when you think about it. Sort of like a bizarro Wii U. Now, there's Pokemon and Mario rumors? Please Nintendo , just let us know what you guys are even cooking up! I'm dying here!

DIDNEY WORL FIGHT: I'd really enjoy this! Traditional or Smash style could work, but I'm leaning more towards Smash. Just give us a good mix of Classic Disney, some Pixar stuff, maybe sprinkle in some Marvel and Star Wars for flavor, and BAM! Instant classic! I hope that one day I can see Jack Skellington punch Darth Vader in the face.

Did I miss any news? Please let me know if I missed anything important!

oh look more leaks...yay...

Carphin....is this our Dolphin?
Spertrum....first thing that came to mind was a Sperm Whale...
Krakabon....a Kraken?
Performar....A Marlin maybe?
Tectossum....Ground type Opossum Opossum ?
Rugrilla....Rugby Monkey?
Meowlbow....gimmicky cat pokemon mentioned in other leaks?

Not really going to buy this though...it's easy to come up with weird names for stuff that's already rumoured to exist...

Edit: but I can totally dig a Fire/Ghost Litten evolution!!!

I found this: http://macintyrerath.tumblr.com/post/148418572356/alolan-shellder-and-cloyster



Alolan Shelder and Cloyster.
It makes a lot of sense, I never understood why Shelder looks like that in Slowbro's tail and Slowking's head.
Doesn't really explain why Shellder looks like that in literally every other region when a Slowpoke evolves, when this is supposed to be a region exclusive form...A very neat idea though (kinda lame it's still pure water, perhaps Water/Poison since the Pokedex mentions the Shellder injects poisons into Slowbro's tail and Slowking's head)...

...Yeeeeah, this one feels like a stretch. Why would they go so far to give the whole "four forms based on the islands" thing to the starters?

Though I wonder if this could be another one of those leaks that combines real and fake info...
