Call me skeptical. The leak that mentioned an Alolan Arcanine has been extremely reliable on basic stuff so far--its only mistakes have been small details like missing one of the Alolan Forms' types. If it says there's an alternate Arcanine, there's reason to believe it, even if it might not be pure Water.

Plus, I've heard of people elsewhere questioning that the website really does debunk the chance of Alolan Forms happening. I forget the exact logic, but...
I would agree, but the thing with the Bewear leak is that for all it gets right in other areas, it seems to have a bad track record with the actual Alolan forms. Of the two that are confirmed and are on its list, Ninetales wasn't Fire type, and it missed the Normal typing of Raticate. Of the rest, along with Arcanine, the Abra line and the Butterfree line were all seen around Alola, with Alakazam being used in the recent trailer against Type: Null and Butterfree being seen across multiple, including the most recent one. So that's two Pokémon that it flubbed some details on, and three that are implied to not have Alolan forms within the games. So it's not like there isn't reasonable doubt to believe that he flubbed on the details here, and it's especially the case since two official sources have now implied that Arcanine doesn't get an Alolan form.

I would like to see Alolan Arcanine myself, I was warming up to the idea after my initial disbelief and I really wanted to see how they pulled it off, but more and more information is just not aligning for that scenario. I could be mistaken, but I feel there's good reason to consider that the rumor just got that detail wrong. It doesn't detract from what he's gotten right, but it does mean you can't take everything he says to be true. We already experienced that with both the Gematsu and XY leaks, which also got details wrong, so this may just as well be another case of that.

While I haven't played a Crash game, it would be disrespectful to not celebrate one of gaming's most important characters.

I'll see if I can get a drawing done today.

Of all the game listed under Interplay's library the only two that they still have (i.e. not Fallout and the Lost Vikings) that I think are hot property are Earthworm Jim and Clayfighter. We now live in a time where 3D graphics are good enough to pretend to be claymation so there's a lot of stuff that can be done with the premise.

That is the most british post I've seen in quite awhile.

Reminds me of that one fanfic "Supper Smash Bros Mishohn From God" whith that one chapter with a bunch of angry brits from "british land" or whatever that say bloody at least once for every sentence. :p That, ******, or bloke anyway.
I get that a lot. lol

I always found it strange myself that some Aussie slang is commonly shared with the UK as well. Even mate is among one of them.

At least they don't call crocs "salties" like we do.

Happy birthday to Crash (for real this time)! As a longtime fan of the series, I still occasionally revisit the Naughty Dog games and enjoy them, plus TwinSanity was good too. Hopefully all goes well with the remasters and the titular bandicoot finally makes his comeback after over half a decade of absence.

I'm just sad we won't see Alolan Corsola :(

Technically his first words were "WOAH" when ever he dies


Plus we don't speak about that time or that era. No one does or should

Funny how the Xbone started out in one of the most embarrassing ways possible (with all the DRM and Kinect crap) and MS' whole PR disaster during it.

It sure has come a long way.
It's sad when the current marketing strategy is "don't suck and mock those that do". Not excel in making the best games or things like that.

so i did something i dont normally do and clicked on a versilify video and shock of all shocks the clickbait was actually something worht talking about an almost clearly visable in the new trailer new pokemon
regardless of how you feel about him this is worth a watch mostly because its clearly not snubble from what we can see
Watching now, but I can confirm one thing the rabbit isn't new, it's bunnelby:

they have pink ears like that. Duck statue is interesting though.


Okay guys i did a bit of sleuthing on the mystery pokemon in the water Z move and got it as best i could and as cleanly as i could



we can now distinctly make out hands arms and a tounge as well as eyes and what appears to be the back of its neck curving over i think we can confirm this as salandits evolution
This could be it, but I think it's Salandit standing up. At worlds they used silhouette artwork this year and one of them was of salandit standing up. It looking like this pretty much. It's hard to tell the difference though if this is an evolution.

3DS sound quality is so much better with headphones on it's frightening.

Bravely Second. Not Default :p


And you can beat the dragons by making everyone a ninja, spamming utusemi (the dodge) and letting Transience just kill them on autobattle

Tough fights made so trivial you don't even need to be in the room to win!
:061:
Ooh yeah I didnt do that, I was not trying to cheese the game at the time

Hey guys. Just dropping in to say that if you asked me who Shun'ei from KOF 14 looked like before I came here today, I'd say he looks like someone Chrono. Chrono. would use as an avatar.

That is all
if that a bunnelby its a alolan bunnelby because you can see it moving and its ears are fully pink with black squares with no notch like bunnelby

Why on earth would Apple remove a headphone jack in a phone?
It's weird. They did list a number of merits - like getting place for a larger camera and bigger battery, but I think it's really going to inconvenience a lot of people. 99.99% of audio equipment (from $10 earphones to the most expensive ones) use it.

If I have to buy a dongle just to plug in headphones, is the phone really worth buying lol

That whole reboot theory thing again. . .

I skimmed another video from the guy in the sidebar, and the situation became more clear.

His specific reason for the reboot is because he thinks Game Freak should do the ultimate nostalgia pandering, getting rid of the majority of Pokemon outside of Generations 1-2 and redesigning every Pokemon past Gen 1 included to look like those from Gen 1. In an MMO. With a "darker storyline."

And he flat out said they would be idiots to not do this.

. . .

Apple should introduce an iPhone so thin you're literally holding nothing

Would sell like crazy

Most apple fans would think the phone without a screen is an upgrade
"Introducing the iThrowback! Now you can buy an iPhone with a set of number keys instead of a screen! Download and play all of your hot new apps by sound! Starting at the low, low price of $799 at an Apple store near you!"

You'd think so but when Apple decreed that Flash wouldn't work on it's systems suddenly it was declared a horrible buggy mess despite everyone else using it and supporting it beforehand. Won't be to surprised if we see a million articles saying that headphones don't have to be your audience anymore in the coming days.
