I'm definitely debating naming my new Lunala Ultra Lord if I don't go with Nebby again.

You know what'd suck?

If they also made a sun/ moon part 3

Because this gen seems to be moving fast

So do you guys think these Pokémon are forms of Solgaleo & Lunala or forms of Necrozma (a la Kyurem)

I'm going with the former.

The former as it looks like Solgaleo and Lunaala are wearing Necrozma as armor, as opposed to the Kyurem fusions.

(Plus back then it was established that Reshiram and Zekrom were one being, so it wasn't far fetched that Kyurem could fuse with one or both).

Since things have settled down, I'm going to go ahead and share this again since I've been mulling it over.

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1347190

Really, the implications of what's said there are shockingly close to what actually happened. Of course, there's also that Mystery Dungeon namedrop. . .HMM. . .

"Nonsense. I mean, how bad can they get?" *looks at the newest event* :smirk:..........:chuckle:

Can we start hassling the writer to write up a follow-up to this?

Nooooooo I thought I was the only one that had to suffer. :<

Whatever you do don't eat anything. Last week involved much regret on my end and the sacrifice of two pizza slices that did nothing wrong.

This isn't really anything new. DP came out after the DS was a couple years old, so did XY with the 3DS and looks like they're gonna go that route with the Switch.

Now, whether you think it's a good decision or not, is up to you. Personally, I think people are just really hungry for a console HD Pokemon game and a lot of them had build up the idea TPC and Gamefreak were immediately jumping ship, hence the super vocal disappointment for a practice they've been doing for a decade now.

Alastor and Jet Black were the only real competitors in the last Viewtiful Joe poll. But the smug rival with a Round Trip beat him by one vote in the end. All according to plan considering the series I will cover next.

Kamiya's former baby Devil May Cry has a cast of lovable, strong, and stylish characters that were playable in a variety of games. Some were even consistent guests in select Capcom crossovers (including Viewtiful Joe). Your choices are Dante, Vergil, Lady, and Trish.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Why I did this? Because Lord Mundus wanted me to make you all suffer hard. :evil:

My only questions are how random fighters are going to be selected now and if the game is seriously drive the point home about Decidueye by having the cursor be on it by default like it did with the Random select.

Just map it to one of the buttons that doesn't do anything there.

Damn it, I can't choose between all four of them. They would be great additions.

At least throw some fodder up there like Kat and Nero.

I know myself it isn't anything new, although the interview certainly shines a brighter light on what was about to happen.

Sometimes I wonder how many other people know, though.

Oh, and. . .Pokemon Mystery Dungeon is something new. :3

Nothing one couldn't hypothetically figure out in retrospect was probably coming next year anyway from it's average dev cycle, but if that's a hint at it that's something new.

I want Vanilla Ice Cream. When mine starts, I instantly go for Lemon Drop candy. Basicly, I get hungry

Surprised haven't seen this getting brought up more.



What do you think? New mechanic? Or just reworked Z-Moves? Maybe something else?

I went through it last week.

Last week though. . .that. . .wasn't good. Let's just say it involved literal writhing in pain begging in my head for God to make it stop.

And ended with a pizza fountain.

If it's like Gaiden then it's got a drop rate of about 0.055% from Mogalls.

That, and it has a chance of dropping from crates in the lower floors of Thabes, except it will appear as a Rusted Lance and you won't know if it's Sol until you recover it at the Smithy.

It also has a chance of dropping outright from pots in the Inner Sanctum DLC Dungeon.

While USUM hasn't been defined as a sequel/remake/retelling yet, I think these games will feature a more traditional Pokémon experience, like adding Gyms and having a fixed Champion while keeping some of the traditional Alola elements like the Trials.

Apparently gen 4 remake is still being teased

Someone mentioned all the gens were shown in the trailer except gen 4

...?

Edit:

Honestly this is probably just a cash grab rom hack of Pokémon sun and moon to hold fans off until gen 4 remakes

Final map of Echoes beat!
I loved this map, it was fun cutting down fhrough the hoddes of enemies, I loved how the pre-final battle quotes were handled this time and beating the hell out of Jedah was satisfying. All thanks to Str blessed Gray crits.

Holy hell Duma looks creepy with that eye
Not as creepy as the original but still
Invoke saved my ass fdom drawing Duma in so I could gang on him afterwards.
SHIELD DROP!!! HE ****ING DID THE SHIELD DROP!!!

Nice endings, just miss the character titles
>Tobin got a ****ing castle
Jfc Alm, you can't just go around giving these

I really want to see Lukas as a teacher though, I hope there's fanart of that

>Sonya is implied to have become a Witch
Oh god this is Canas all over again
Still, it doesn't make sense that she became one, considering only Duma can grant such thing and well... he's dead.
I mean, don't they usually replace the home consoles with the next consoles in the next games?
Yeah but that usually only happens in a new Gen, not that it matters much, we all knew the Wii U was dead after BotW
I'm definitely debating naming my new Lunala Ultra Lord if I don't go with Nebby again.
Ultra Nebby, duh
You know what'd suck?

If they also made a sun/ moon part 3

Because this gen seems to be moving fast
It has been like that since Platinum, dude, it's nothing new
Hell, B2W2 were announced within a similar timeframe after the release of BW
Surprised haven't seen this getting brought up more.

I wanna bet it's how you activate Ultra Nebby
Either that or just a fancy animation for a special Z-Move, I doubt we're getting some incredibly new mechanic midgen

Black and White 2 were at least released 2 years after Black and White

Also I skipped black and white 2 after getting bored of black and white and just went back to heart gold

Somewhere out there on this big blue marble
Wii U owners DID get screwed as Darkrai, Croagunk, Scizor and Empoleon were found on the Wii U version after a patch, the fact nothing came of that AT ALL means they got screwed in a way. Though it makes sense for Nintendo to drop the corpse into a coffin

Lunala doesn't look good with the armour, which sucks. Gonna need a lot more info to consider a justification for the game, especially as I haven't touched Moon since December. If I get the games, I'll likely get Ultra Sun and call Solgaleo Black Sun. Sucks Necrozma's only armour even if the concept of armour is cool.

One of my least favourite gens on VC and not the improved version. yay...

I think I've simply outgrown pokemon for now. At least I got my MHA manga in the mail today

hey, maybe pokken can have an active competetive community this time.

and maybe pokkenboards here on SB can get some activity :troll:
I can tell that Shofu is foaming at the mouth as we speak.

More Pokken for EVO confirmed.

I gotta say.

Pokken DX has me super hyped.

I'd loved more life to be brought to Pokken.

And the best part is....


WE ONLY NEED ONE SCREEN!
Alright, that fixes ONE of my issues with the game
Black and White 2 were at least released 2 years after Black and White

Also I skipped black and white 2 after getting bored of black and white and just went back to heart gold
Only if you lived in Japan.
And I don't see how YOU skipping it makes it different from now
