Social NintenZone Social 5 - Thanks, Everyone

[Schnee117]

So the Favorite Pokémon of Each Type picker released some statistics. It says the top five of each type, as well as the bottom two of each. I'll edit in an analysis I found.

Let's see:

Spoiler: In spoilers for the sake of space

Grass: Sceptile placed first
Fire: Salazzle didn't place here but did place 4th in Poison
Water: In a treasonous act, Blastoise didn't place
Normal: Regigigas understandably didn't place
Electric: Ampharos took second
Psychic: Mewtwo took fourth
Fighting: Heracross got fourth
Rock: Godzilla took first as he should
Ground: Flygon placed first as it should
Flying: No Rayquaza.
Bug: Scizor got first
Poison: Crobat got second
Dark: Freddy Krueger took third
Ghost: Dusknoir didn't place
Ice: Alolan Ninetails placed first
Steel: Metagross took it.
Dragon: No Dialga.
Fairy: Gardevoir took third.

Not bad.

 

[Aurane]

Trust me. There is a big difference between outright hating her and finding her very frustrating to play against and with sometimes.

I know this. I wasn't being super strict about terminology.

 

[mario123007]

I really like Mercy too~♪

Also I want to correct myself about Mei. I didn't know people hated her so much. I just saw a video with a Bastion player getting stomped by Mei and it just looked incredibly painful.

Yeah, which kind of annoys me a bit even though I know she is a character that you will never want to 1v1 with.

 

[Schnee117]

There's a lot of Pokemon I wish were better. Hell, I'm sure I could make a list if I tried.

Actually screw it, why not.

By generation:
Gen I: Flareon
Gen II: Meganium
Gen III: Flygon
Gen IV: Luxray
Gen V: Basculin
Gen VI: Avalugg
Gen VII: Lycanroc

Gen 1: Lapras, could opt for a bit more defence.
Gen 2: Meganium, it just needs a lot of help
Gen 3: Flygon, Mega.
Gen 4: Luxray, give it better physical moves and a Mega
Gen 5: Archeops, ditch that awful ability
Gen 6: Noivern, needs some more bulk
Gen 7: Lycanroc, something better than Counter. Also Earthquake

EXCUSE ME EVERYONE I HAVE BREAKING NEWS

Team Flight rises victorious!

. . .Oh my gosh I've won every single Splatfest so far, LOL. I never had this kind of luck in the first Splatoon.

 

[praline]

This just proves that Pearl has better tastes in things.

 

[Aurane]

Congratulations @Flight for the victory.

. . .Although considering that common choice, isn't Luc at least functional meta wise? I thought he still managed to squeak some use in through being a curveball from what little I've overheard from competitives. I mean he's not some kind of Garchomp, but he's at least functional unlike 90% of all other Pokemon, right?

Its not a matter of functionality, its a matter of it's my favorite Pokémon and any buff is appreciated.

He's not bad, but I wouldn't mind the issues he has being fixed. Speed, for instance.

I guess if I were to choose someone else, it'd be Roserade. Bring back The Rose *****.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

But she ices cake with mayo, thats a deduction right there same with Marina and her ketchup icecream

 

[Aurane]

But she ices cake with mayo

I ice cake with mayo sometimes.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

[praline]

I'd rather eat a cake iced in mayo than eat ketchup ice cream honestly.

I mean y can just scrape the mayo off.

Same here but this time...
I actually didn't play any match because of my Wi-Fi, so sad...

Hmm...for me, it'd be:

Gen I: Fearow
Gen II: Qwilfish or Ursaring. Both are usable, but niche.
Gen III: Castform. Please, Game Freak. Save my baby.
Gen IV: Luxray
Gen V: Unfezant
Gen VI: Trevenant could use more bulk
Gen VII: Decidueye just needs its Special Attack and Speed swapped.

 

[IronTed]

For that Pokemon thing, how many people voted? Just curious, some of those entries are surprising

 

[praline]

I only played 2 cause I'm starting to get bored of the game.

I don't have any exact number, but considering it was a top post on the Pokémon subreddit the other day and I saw it all over Twitter (and here lol), definitely a lot.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Id rather not eat either but I think people did say Ketchup Ice cream was a flavor from Baskin Robbins before and aparently Japan has Vegetable Ice Cream

 

[Coricus]

Japan has hot spring ice cream.

Very good for angels but they're clearly winging it.

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

So it seems one of my favorite musicians Walter Becker has died at 67.

I guess I better get on YouTube to listen to all the Steely Dan I can handle.

 

[praline]

Lego Batman was much better than the Lego Movie

 

[mario123007]

I only played 2 cause I'm starting to get bored of the game.

Well, I don't, if I do (or if I get too salty) I will just play other games. I am thinking of of buying Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

 

[FalKoopa]

They also have seaweed flavour Lays and cucumber flavoured Pepsi.

What's that like? Eating Ice Cream at a Hot Spring, or are you holding something back?

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Japan is a ****ing weird place

 

[praline]

Well time to see if Power Rangers is any good.

They also have seaweed flavour Lays and cucumber flavoured Pepsi.

Cucumber Pepsi is probably as bas as it sounds.

Well, I don't, if I do (or if I get too salty) I will just play other games. I am thinking of of buying Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Good choice.

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

Cucumber Pepsi is probably as bad as it sounds.

It could be worse. It could've been something like Cucumber Dr Pepper.

 

[FalKoopa]

Japan is a ****ing weird place

For us.

Cucumber Pepsi is probably as bas as it sounds.

I imagine it won't be too different from Sprite.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I don't normally like flavored chips or any sodas out of the ordinary/standard flavors anyway.

I did try a type of Ruffles flavor called "All Dressed" a while back though. It's apparently flavored with stuff like ketchup, salt, vinegar, barbecue, sour cream and other flavors all at once. I don't normally like flavored chips, as I said above, but those are actually pretty good, imo.

 

[Arcanir]

The Cucumber soda is actually pretty good! It was definitely a little weird to hear about when I first picked it up, but as soon as I took a sip it became a favorite of mine while vacation.

There's a lot of Pokemon I wish were better. Hell, I'm sure I could make a list if I tried.

Actually screw it, why not.

By generation:
Gen I: Flareon
Gen II: Meganium
Gen III: Flygon
Gen IV: Luxray
Gen V: Basculin
Gen VI: Avalugg
Gen VII: Lycanroc

Lets see...
Gen 1: Articuno
Gen 2: Meganium
Gen 3: Cradily
Gen 4: Luxray
Gen 5: Sawsbuck
Gen 6: Heliolisk/Pyroar
Gen 7: Golisopod

Alright...

So this new unit has....

17 Health which is standard.
9 Attack which is high.
9 Speed which is low.
8 Defense which is standard.
4 Resistance which is standard.

So + Attack, - Speed.

Dunno if that is good for Brave Lucina.

Unfortunately it's not that great since she wants that speed, so as Moydow said if the other Lucina has a better Spd IV go with that one and merge the other to give her the stat boost. It's definitely workable if you have something like Fury to patch it up, but it's much more preferable to have the speed since a lot of the popular units tend to be fast.

 

[praline]

For us.


I imagine it won't be too different from Sprite.

But Sprite is lemon lime. This is Cucumber Pepsi

 

[FalKoopa]

Lays sells a specially spiced up version of their chips here, named "Magic Masala". Stereotype intensifies

It's ironically more spicy than the "Maxx Macho Chilli" flavour.

 

[---]

It took a few hours, but I beat Ninja Gaiden for the first time! It requires practice and knowing how to position yourself, but it's worth it for those cutscenes.

Spoiler

If you can hold onto the Spinning Slash sub-weapon in the last level, you can OHKO the Final Bosses in single hit.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Flight beat Invisibility in the NA/PAL Splatfest.

So when can we get a name brand themed Splatfest outside of Japan, Nintendo?

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I need to know if Fries won In Japan

 

[Aetheri]

Beat Yakuza, now for the mandatory SA-X encounter....

*after several tries survives with only 43 health left*....*gets jumped by a Kihunter*

FUUUUUUUUUU---


Either way beat Netorri got the Plasma Beam now off to face Nightmare!

 

[IronTed]

Interesting.

Japan is a ****ing weird place

Well, when you live isolated for centuries, that kinda happens to you.

But to be serious, Japan is definitely weird, and not just the "different country" type of weird. I mean, obviously we perceive different cultures, well, differently, but they are very, odd. The fact they do lotteries for Nintendo Switches alone is weird. It does make far more orderly than here in the states though.

 

[Wario Bros.]

I need to know if Fries won In Japan

Japan's McDonald's Splatfest is next week.

Do you only eat like plain ripple chips or something??

 

[KingofPhantoms]

With a few exceptions, I mostly eat plain chips of any kind or brand, really.

That's so... boring...

 

[FalKoopa]

I mostly eat the salted and the cream/onion flavours of any chips. They good.
