It's just a cringe-inducing word that makes me want to slap whoever says that. It's always used as a leverage word to make someone look bad for stating what they think or someone, ironically being upset over someone else being upset. That word needs to die a painful death.

Unless it's just used in the context of using salt for cooking of course...
Its being used in context, like right now, for someone angry about something for no reason at all

chill out

Crabrawler looks like a Robber Crab rather than a Mantis Shrimp...doubtful it evolved from Wimpod...it would have shown in the trailer...

Pure Fighting type is likely due to them being found on land often...rather its lack of water type that is...

Yeah, Mantis shrimp was the first thing that came to mind but I was also viewing it quickly from my phone

I figured out it probably wasn't that

So Bewear pre-evo is a plush, ok?

Little Macster Crab looks kinda silly, but in a good way. I like him.

No Sandghastle is disappointing, but I still like Palossand thought. His ability is kinda weird, since it's require to be hit by a super-effective move that is usually Special to raise your normal defense.

And there's also the fire turtle that looks like the child of Bowser and Pingu that I never talked about. He's ok, but not my favorite.

Down to the very last turn, Birthright tried to RNG screw me. Corrin managed to miss an 80% chance attack which was all I would need to beat the game. Jesus this game hated me.

Thankfully Ryoma swooped on in to steal the kill. Beating the last chapter in one turn is ok I guess. . .but the fact that that is even possible (let alone really easy) when the chapter looks like it is meant to be a really long slog seems silly.

Of course YOU CAN'T ****ING SAVE so i'll take my chances so I don't have to redo a boring ass chapter a second time I guess.


Oh and uhh. . .I beat Birthright on hard mode I guess. . .so that's cool. My heroes were pretty much Corrin, Hana, Ryoma, Oboro, and Silas for every chapter lol. Now to go find another game to play. I'm thinking Spyro 1.

Why do people have no reason to be angry? They're angry about the way the episode went down and they have every right to be upset with what happened. You're throwing out the word salty because you're upset with other people being upset about something you disagree with. That's the beef I have with "salty" being thrown around. Trying to undermine the opinion of others.

And FTR I don't really care about what happens in the Anime. I'm just calling it the way I see it.

More Pokémon already? Too much to merge with the Turtonator video?

Whatever. Anywho, Crabrawler looks pretty silly. And Stufful is kinda cute.

So I was watching footage of Palossand fighting, and I gotta say, I can really see the improvement of the attack animations. Shadow Ball looks really cool. All the moves Crabrawler was shown using definitely look good too.

Anyone figured out all the moves Crabrawler used in the Worlds footage (there were roughly eight total moves shown)? I could only pinpoint Close Combat, Crabhammer, Stone Edge, and Dynamic Punch.

Hey, 600 pages. Is every hundred pages still an accomplishment here?

So I took a trip down memory lane and watched The Dark Knight late last night.

It's a fantastic movie, and my first thought as I walked away how ironic it must be to have been one of the complainers about Nolan's trilogy with BvS being the "ideal" movie.

You know, Crabrawler and Stufful are a bit uncreative.
It's just matching the last letter of the first word and the first letter of the second word type...

Palossand is better. (Pile of sand + Palace Sand.)

....I can't quite figure out the pun in Sandygast though. (Help.)

Some added information about Crabrawler during the worlds opening ceremony:

Junichi Masuda - "And of course, San Francisco is famous for crab, and here on the screen, I think you can see me posing at a statue at Fisherman's Worth, so I knew that I really wanted to introduce this Pokemon here in San Francisco."

*Picture is shown of Junichi Masuda with the crab statue landmark*



Masuda continues speaking: "So Crabrawler... it's a very competitive Pokemon that really just hates to lose. It's always aiming for the top, so I think it's a lot like all of you in that respect. It's a Fighting-type Pokemon that uses its tough claws to battle, and it's said that its mighty punches are powerful enough to even split tree trunks. It's not a very big Pokemon by any means, definitely not the biggest, but it's very strong, and I hope everyone will use Crabrawler this November when Pokemon Sun and Moon are released worldwide, so I know I can't wait to adventure with Crabrawler."

So people are branded salty for wanting the anime to actually progress instead of recycling the same garbage over and over again? That's stupid on so many different levels.

Thing is, we aren't the anime's target audience, so it has no reason to appeal to us.

Pokémon anime has a shifting fanbase, one that grows into it and grows out of it with each season. That explains why they have been able to keep it running by cycling the same basic story since 1998.

It's not supposed to appeal to us, so there's no point in getting upset over it, really.

That's it

Being disappointed and agry are two different things
It hasn't ended yet and just because it isn't going how you want doesn't mean it's "justified" to hate it
Also, stop being so salty lol

Maybe you all missed the part when I said I didn't care what went down in the Anime. I'm saying this because people have the tendency to use that word because people are saying something they don't like so they feel the need to undermine them using that petty word. When you do that **** it pisses me off. More so when it's used in a Smash context but pretty much in any other situation as well. Just because people wanted the plot to progress normally doesn't mean they have to be labelled that way.

I mean, I suppose that during the Zygarde arc, the league may find out that Alain was working for Team Flare this whole time and disqualify him, although I doubt Ash would accept that and feel that Alain still deserved the trophy.

Although a rematch may turn up between their Greninja and Charizard but eitherway. Ash will probably still wish to go to the Alola region and try and win the league (or whatever the final test that region has to offer) legitimately on his own there....

I mean, I will hand it to him, at least Ash finally made it to the finals rather than being somewhere in the top 8 again or something.... Eitherway, I don't think it would matter much whether Ash would win the league or not. He'd most probably still want to travel to the next region regardless.

Just my two cents on that I guess.

I think "Ash loses lol" should be the counterpart meme of "Cena wins lol".

I'm calling out people's BS. That's all there is to it.

We can just ignore IGN reviews. I don't know if I will get FF, but it's nice to see good reviews for it. It shows that despite the hate, Nintendo still did good on the game and it's a nice metroid title even if it's not what fans expected.

Nintendo Stocks are plummeting right now, and users on FB are claiming it is because people are cancelling their SM preorders after the Kalos League fiasco lol.
I don't think the anime can affect the games and stocks that much but it would be hilarious if the backlash is really that big.
And then the stocks will rise when people realize that was a dumb mistake and that Sun and Moon is a fantastic entry in the series. ( at least it looks like one)
Any leak mention a boxing crab? How many are dead now?
nope, so nothing is more credible yet.

It's a good thing the main Team Flare arc trailer has its like/dislike bar disabled, because I can only imagine how many more dislikes that one would have compared to the new episode preview.

I too wish that video didn't have this much dislikes because it's a good preview for what's to come, but I think that's just the Pokemon community's way of trying to reach the writers about what they thought. I bet the writers might be looking at this and thinking, "This was inevitable. We could quote Ash's famous line to remind them there could be good things to come out of it, but let's just wait and see."
That is a smart move. It is a good way of showing their thoughts It might help teach the writers better ways of doing a situation like this again.
I'm guessing they're thinking "Hey we shouldn't have had the guy who wrote Cameron vs Ash for this".
I really don't understand why they needed them back, but this could be a good guess....

Nice to finally see the remaining mons in action! Crabrawler also is neat. He could become used often in competitive play if he has decent enough stats. Might use one, but probably not in main play.
