Thinking od which dragon ball character certain people here would be makes me think that I’m the one people would say is closest to Vegeta.
We used to do this thing where we wrote which users were closest to which character

We should try that again with Dragon Ball characters.

I'm not sure I know all the users here now as much as the old days though

Edit: That is dorkier typing where people can see it than it sounded in my head

Oh hey, in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Eternal Flower Floette has unique Pokédex entries from a normal Floette.

Does this mean we'll finally get one?

Who cares if it’s dorky, we’re on a smash bros forum.

That aside I’m definitely Vegeta and Professor Pumpkaboo Professor Pumpkaboo is probably closest to Bulma. lol

If any of you have any affection for The Simpsons and have a spare half hour, you owe it to yourself to watch this. It's been a while since I've seen such a fantastic video thesis. This guys content in general is fantastic, most of his other videos are a similar kind of thing but with anime.

Late to respond, but I remember watching this video a long time ago and I loved watching it. TBH it was the reason why I decided to try classic Simpsons in the first place, and I LOVE the old seasons so far. I also compared them to some of the modern episodes, and I think he's right...the modern episodes lack the charm and excellent writing that old episodes have. There are still some great modern episodes ("Barthood" from season 27 was pretty darn good, in particular) but even still too many of the modern episodes end up looking weak compared to the originals.

Eternal Flower Floette exists in all Gen 6 & 7 games. It has a signature move called Light of Ruin, which is also the strongest Fairy type move.

Why we have never gotten one officially still baffles me.

Is it Floette using a form modifier? I need to figure this out!

Edit:

The flower it's holding can no longer be found blooming anywhere. It's also thought to contain terrifying power.

Valkyria on Switch is hype! Never beat the first game but what I played was really good. Not to mention beutiful. Would love to play a new game too.
HANDS DOWN MY MOST ANTICIPATED JRPG IN 2018!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never thought this would happen... hell... who expect another Valyria Chronicles game after the disaster of Valkyria Revolution?

Also,
Oh nice, I've been looking forward to this. Gotta make space for it though. Hope its a good game. Not really a huge fan of the AC series, but I want to try something new... Versus what I play now, anyways.

Is this the first Valkyria game on a Nintendo system?
That's why I was mindblown and excited. Valkyria Chronicles was a PS3 title and the series has never been on a Nintendo system.
I always feel that Vakyria series is kind of like SEGA's Fire Emblem... I mean hell... Valkyria Chronicles III was even a Japan only PSP game...
I also notice that they go with the Arabic number 4 instead of Roman number IV this time around. Same with Xenoblade as Xenoblade Chronicles 2.
And no it's not a coincidence that I like the two JRPG with the word "Chronicles" in it.

Yeah. VC1 was initially PS3-exclusive (oddly back during a time when most planned third party PS3 exclusives were getting 360 ports left and right, but I digress) and later ported to PC and PS4, VC2 and 3 were on PSP, and Azure Revolution was the first to be multiplatform from the get-go, appearing on PS4, Vita, and Xbone. As far as Nintendo is concerned, Valkyria characters have only previously appeared in the Project X Zone games, at least to my knowledge.

I'm very confused as to how this all works. Does anyone even use Smashboards anymore? The latest posts i have seen are from a year ago.

The title of Sega's Fire Emblem will always belong to Shining Force, no matter how much Sega has neglected the series and how much America got messed over for missing Shining Force III Part 2 and 3.

And how they turn the Shining strategy series into a very anime-like RPG...not too good imo...

It actually started as a Dungeon Crawler with the title "Shining in the Darkness" before the Shining Force titles happened. Also, I wouldn't say all of the Anime-like Shining games are bad(and once again, anime-like style isn't a bad thing). At least, I heard Shining Blade(Not Blade Arcus, BA is a different game) was pretty good and that the game's gameplay had similar gameplay to Valkyria Chronicles. I would've liked to have tried it had it come out in English, but the Shining team seems to be very finicky with releasing it's games overseas lately. Although for some reason, Blade Arcus from Shining managed to get released overseas.

It's probably more that the series is most known for the Strategy RPG stuff than the other genres it also has. It's not too surprising that more known about 1 and 2 compared to the rest of the series, either. It's a bit all over the place, although the rpg elements generally stay similar among the games I've played. Multiple items to equip, many re-used classes(which count as characters), many of the same enemies, many of the stats don't change much, items to specifically level up certain stats, the spells...

I'm trying to think of every genre it's had so far. Dungeon Crawler, Strategy RPG, Action RPG. What else? Last game I played was Neo, although I own its sequel, and I do have some of the other older GameGear/Genesis games via cartridges/discs/VC.

Tales of the Abyss is very long.
I'm pretty sure that's just the Tales series in general.
I still remember getting the achievement for completing Chapter 1 of Xillia when I was about 27 hours in.
I think there are like, 6 or 7 chapters in that game.

I like how good the ultra recon guy is at pokemon battling

Poipole vs flaafy

Poipole raises defense with X Defense. Flaafy uses thundershock

Poipole uses charm which greatly lowers attack. Flaafy uses thundershock

I stopped watching the Simpsons around season 12 and haven't regretted it. They had a good run but like the video says, after that the show turns into 'zombie Simpsons'.

Also, I REALLY suck at the mantine surf thing. I can't figure out how to speed up. Without speeding up I can't get enough air to do tricks.

I accidently skipped the dialogue during the training

I have no way of beating Lurantis.

It's got 6 stages of defense and the only pokemon I have that can hit it for any kind of damage is physical based

Even when I damage it it just heals

Edit: Maybe I can get it to struggle to death

I have stage 6 defense too

Edit 2:

2 X-Attacks and 1 Dire Hit later... I 1 shot it

I just dropped in on a Metroid discord and they have no idea what I'm like yet.

Poor innocent souls have no idea what's coming to them.
Metroid discord update: there are a couple of dorks that incessantly argue about obscure Metroid lore 24/7. I have grown weary of their antics


After this, ToraTrash became more self-aware about it, but Jacob steadfastly refuses to even acknowledge me. He's a tough nut to crack, and will take a great deal more effort to break

Since I'm not too familiar with the series, I'm didn't say it was a bad thing to be anime-like. The lighter tone anime aesthetic for the game just isn't my cup of tea but who knows, maybe I will think it is great once I see the gameplay.

I never played a Valkyria Chronicles game but I've always wanted to play one, if it's coming to the Switch, then I'm definitely picking it up.
I'm gonna get so confused by the plot tho give us a VC colection pls

Calm down, AZ waited 3000 years, we can wait 300

Another season of left turns is ogre.... AND MY DRIVER WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP **** YES!!! Man, Im so happy for the dude.

Also getting good at Mantine Surfing means more BP.
More BP means being able to buy the "Power" items at the Battle Royale Dome.
Having the Power Items means ez EV Training.
Ez EV training means roflstomping Totem A-Marowak with an Arbok.

It's mostly just this thread because it's the cool kid's hangout.

We're in the deadest dead part of off-season for Smash, though. Wait for a new game to be announced and watch this place defrost like a cartoon caveman.

Also feel free to pull up a chair here in the meanwhile, it's not the best spot for Smash discussion (I mean it's OK to do it's just that no one listens), but we've got memes.

You're dank, you like memes, right?
