Who put politics in my Senran Kagura?

Because this is perfect. I've always imagined her as Donald Trump.

Well the thing is, Empoleon has the typing I've always wished Blastoise had. Super defensive typing

Torterra is a grass type with a VAST coverage, despite being slow he's very useful in game. Earthquake, Wood Hammer, Stone Edge, Super Power - compare that with Serperior who only gets Normal and Grass attacks. Plus he's a turtle/ nodosaurus
Leech Seed/Toxic/Leaf Blade/Protect
My Serperior used this set for most of my White Nuzlocke and not only survived by the end but soloed Iris by himself
It takes some time to set up but Serperior is a great Pokemon, just because it doesn't get good coverage doesn't mean its bad
The mermaid would have actually been fantastic if only it did not have the circus design aspect from the start.

Literally the only thing I dont like about that whole evolution line. I hate it.
There's literally no circus theme in Popplio, people just interpreted things wrong and now are complaining their expectations weren't met
Serebii says the upcoming Pokémon demo will be 400 MB (3,100 blocks) to download.
*looks over my 2GB SD card with Conquest*
Guess it's time to buy a new one
So someone seems to have the demo's code, and are datamining it:
http://boards.4chan.org/vp/thread/28929345

So far nothing major, but it seems torracat gets tough claws as it's HA.
WAIT, WHAT? HOW?

Oh my, someone recolored Dartrix.

This should be the shiny colors.

It seems they got ahold of the bin code or something like that.

So.
Who's come to embrace the world before us?
*raises hand*

I stuck with Fennekin before this and I'm likely to stick with Litten now. Not because I have any loyalty to Fire types, but because I already made my choice and I don't see any reason to drop it yet.

Of course, it'll probably just end up with the "popular" final evo being in Smash again or something while my choice gets called "ugly," but at least in this case I look like I'm going to be setting up for a hilarious type advantage against the likely popular choice and some fun wrestling ham.

This is my reaction to the fact that a Kirby is Gay theory exists. It's best not to say who's responsible for it since we all remember his other ridiculous theories.

Kinda late to the party, but after some thinking I like the 3 evos.

Dartrix looks cute even if it made Team Rowlet lose some points for me because the hair.
Brionne has some special eyes and I like its overall jollyness.
Torracat further convinces me to pick Litten, because Im sure it will evolve into MIKE.

I. . .

I don't even think he's old enough that something like that would even occur to him.

One of the Kirby 64 GIFs I saw around here had him blush when kissed by a girl, but that counts as a completely different reason why it's wrong itself and I highly doubt he's old enough for anything more than an emotional reaction.

The design is cool. Especially after Quilladin looking like a bootleg Crash Bandicoot design.
Grass/Fighting is a type I'm not that fond of because I prefer my grass types on the special side for the most part, and god that quad weakneses to flying is glaring to me.
Spiky Shield is suuuuuch a bad unique move to me.
I honestly like it more than Delphox in design and all but its the wekaest line of Kalos.

I'm still can't believe people already have the data for the demo that was announced just today. But there's no way we'll get EVERYTHING about the full game looking at the past:

ΩR/αS Special Demo: 2,000 blocks
ΩR/αS Full Game: 15,000 blocks

Sun/Moon Demo: 3,100 blocks

At least the Sun/Moon demo is bigger than ΩR/αS demo.

He's my fav of the three. Much better than that fox mixed with a grandma. He was also fairly unique design wise.

Though overall the starters last gen were kinda meh. Imo not the worst, but certainly not the best.

Out of curiosity, what exactly is it you guys all have against Delphox? Is there something wrong with having a witch-like fox pokemon that's fire and psychic?

But like the ORAS demo, we're likely to get a LOT of models dug out

Edit:

The more hag-like design was a disappointment to me.
Not that I wanted a "fox gardevoir" or some kind of waifumon so to speak.
But Sakuyamon set a high bar for a similar thing.

Eh...

I like the concept, but something about the execution doesn't quite gel with me. Something about the super long limbs, the posture... It's not my favorite.

Chestnaught is a ****ing tank with great defense and attack. Spiky Shield is ok, but a great way of stopping the more devastating pshyical attacks from hitting him (especially Zen Headbutt). The only problem is fighting Delphox or any Flying type.

At least that;s what I think of my spiky juggernaught.

I have thousands of nickname ideas for Rowlett, one for Litten and none for Popplio aka who I actually have to name
I'm probably gonna end up name mine after one of my EO OCs

Also, I've been thinking of ideas for the starters' signature moves, Rowlett's will probably have something to do with arrows and Popplio's with the water balloons, though I can't think of anything for Litten
I'll put the ideas I have here
Leaf Rain
Type: Grass
BP: 90
Accuracy: --
Physical
A barrage of leaf arrows are shot upwards towards the sky and fall down on the opposing Pokemon at the end of the second turn after this move is used. This move cannot miss. Will hit Pokemon in the state Fly or Sky Drop.

Water Balloon
Type: Water
BP: 60
Accuracy: 100
Special
The opposing Pokemon is trapped in a water bubble and cannot act while trapped, during this Pokemon's next turn, the bubble will burst and deal damage. If the trapped Pokemon is hit by a Physical move, the attack will deal 1.5x damage and the trapped Pokemon will be freed.
What do you guys think about Chesnaught?
He was my first ever Pokemon in a Nuzlocke, so I have some appreciation for the guy
Strong and bulky is everything you need in a Nuzlocke so he was just perfect coupled with his good coverage and koves like Wood Hanmer and Superpower
And Spiky Shield is SO good, being able to deal some damage, even if minimal while being protected can be a life saver sometimes

Is it three months old with around 60 views? That's the only one I could find.

Favorite starters from each generation? Very well.

Generation 1: Blastoise, Charizard and Venasaur tied
Generation 2: They are all equal to me
Generation 3: Swampert, Blaziken, Sceptile
Generation 4: They are all equal to me, though I prefer Empoleon a bit more due to my water starter bias.
Generation 5: Samurott, Serperior, Emboar
Generation 6: Greninja, Chesnaught, Delphox
Generation 7: Entermaid and Robinroot at the top, Beltigre at the bottom

New discussion relevant to today's announcements...
Top 5 Starter Middle Stages

5-Monferno
4-Bayleef
3-Quilava
2-Grovyle
1-Frogadier
1- Marshtomp
2 - Braixen
3 - Grovyle
4 - Dewott
5 - Bayleef

What do you guys think about Chesnaught?
I prefer Chesnaught to Delphox, though Greninja still tops both of them for me. I also like it's signature move. Other than that, that's about it for my opinion on the Pokemon.

What I really like about Fox, and Falco is that most clone/semi-clone characters of the original in fighting games are either more of a stronger/offence type or just a polar opposite of the original characters playstyle, this is not the case with Falco since instead of him being a stronger variant of fox (Since fox is a "Speedy" type of character), he is instead an All-Around character (Despite having stronger moves in comparision to Fox). Not only that but he's also a Unique All-Around character by being great in the air. I also like that Corrin is unique since he's also an All-Around character that quite focuses on range more than other all-around characters.

Design-wise he looks really cool. I'd prefer if his standard coloring was more akin to his shiny but other than that very solid design.
Usage wise... I can't really say too much since I haven't used him that much. From what little experience I have gotten with him though has been very good. Great physical tank as long as you keep him away from Flying types. My only real issue is the same I have with Emboar: a lack of decent Fighting type moves via level up, and the only damaging Fighting type move he can get that isn't until level 60. Thankfully I found the Low Sweep TM or else he'd be without a Fighting STAB for far longer than he needs to.

Let me guess, a Meta Knight x Kirby shipper had something to do with it?

EDIT: Oh, definitely a Game Theory fan trying to make his own subpar theories.

Yes.

And how did I fail to see that MatPatt had nothing to do with it? :facepalm:
LMFAO, I was about to say, the video is just mocking theory vids such as MattPat's, after watching it. Its not even serious.

Though to be fair, some people's theories can be so dumb I legimitely believed that someone unironically made a "Kirby is gay" video. :p That's dissapointing to me, I actually like to listen to bad theories and bad stuff in general.

Late level up moves aren'f really an issue in Gen 5 and 6 with TMs being infinite and "late" not being late(60s in XY is around 8th gym while that is postgame in HGSS)
By the time you get Quilladin to evolve you already have Power-Up Punch and Low Sweep TMs
And then he gets Hamner Arm and Superpower via level up...

Want to hear a good theory?

Galacta Knight is Meta Knight's father from another dimension. He's secretly the ruler of that said dimension after defeating every powerful warrior there, including King Galactus and Galaxy.

Just a silly headcanon I've made since Super Star Ultra.
