NintenZone Social Thread: Shovel Knight Amiibo Hype Catastrophe (feat. Swamp)

[MasterofMonster]

I just ordered some World of Nintendo figures. A small Diddy, DK, and Ice Luigi. And larger Samus and Wario. Skipped the new Fox one for now, I'll get him next time.

Also bought a Wii-Speak for a very small amouht of moneys, just to have it for my collection.

Still need to get the very big World of Nintendo Bowser, DK, Ganondorf and Metroid.

 

[Arcanir]

I think we should make a list of Pokemon we want in Pokken, 5 per generation

Gen 1: Blastoise, Beedrill, Kabutops, Rhydon,
Gen 2: Feraligatr, Scizor, Ampharos, Espeon, Umbreon
Gen 3: Salamence, Breloom, Aggron, Armaldo, Seviper vipers are cooler then your silly Zangooses
Gen 4: Gallade, Luxray, Rampardos, Gliscor, Roserade
Gen 5: Haxorus, Krookodile, Zekrom, Genesect, Terrakion
Gen 6: Greninja, Heliolisk, Tyrantrum, Hoopa-U, Noivern

 

[epicmartin7]

We really need a Direct. I'm desperately hoping that one is at least announced on Monday or Tuesday.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Guys, I have a question. What do you think is behind the mask of a Shy Guy/ Shy Gal?
I think it's this

Spoiler

Also, are there truly people who don't like Shy Gals?

 

[Chrono.]

Why not both Seviper and Zangoose so they can beat the snot out of each other once and for all.

That'd be the dream

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Both should get Megas too, revealed at the same time. Zangoose should get Guts and Seviper, I dunno, a new ability that increases the chance of poisoning foes by 10%. This would also stack up on moves that already poison

 

[Depressed Gengar]

I'm still waiting for Slowking to get a Mega.

How to kill balance in Pokemon once and for all. Mega Slaking with an ability that doesn't hinder it

Well they thought Parental Bond was a completely balanced and not broken ability so anything can happen.

 

[kylexv]

So I just watched Pokemon OR/AS Worlds Finals.
Japan basically destroyed everyone. 7 out of the Top 8 were from Japan. The 8th was from Germany.

Oh gods... I don't want to think about that potential devil.

 

[epicmartin7]

So, do you guys expect a direct this week?

'GERMAN SCIENCE IZ ZIE FINEST IN ZE WUUUUURLD!'
'Roru nopu'

Well they thought Parental Bond was a completely balanced and not broken ability so anything can happen.

I remember reading the considered nerfing the *******

 

[Chrono.]

So, do you guys expect a direct this week?

No but I expect another one of your Duhrect posts so that's gotta count for something.

 

[Depressed Gengar]

So, do you guys expect a direct this week?

I highly doubt it.

 

[LIQUID12A]

So, do you guys expect a direct this week?

Not counting on it.

 

[Arcanir]

I remember reading the considered nerfing the *******

They did, but then they decided against it with this statement:

“At a recent Pokémon tournament in Japan, Kangaskhan and Garchomp were used quite a lot, so I wouldn’t deny that those seem a bit too prominent,” Masuda says. “But for now, it appears to me that the players seem to have a good grip on strategies to counter one another, so I think we’ve achieved an adequate sense of balance.”

So I just watched Pokemon OR/AS Worlds Finals.
Japan basically destroyed everyone. 7 out of the Top 8 were from Japan. The 8th was from Germany.

Interesting, what strategies did they use?

 

[Deleted member]

Am I too late for Pokken stuff?
Gen 1-Golem, Kabutops, Arcanine, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee
Gen 2-Feraligatr, Azumarill, Scizor, Miltank, Xatu
Gen 3-Aggron, Sceptile, Sableye, Vigoroth, Mightyena
Gen 4-**** it, who cares? we already got Weavile
Gen 5-Zoroark, Golurk, Bisharp, Hydreigon, Cofagrigus
Gen 6-Greninja, Aegislash, Hawlucha, Barbaracle, Goodra

 

[Parallel_Falchion]

I don't need 5 per gen. Here are the only Pokemon I want in Pokken:
Gen 1 - Charizard
Gen 2 - Suicune
Gen 3 - Blaziken, Gardevoir
Gen 4 - Lopunny, Lucario
Gen 5 - Lol no one
Gen 6 - Lol still no one

As you can see, I'm pretty much set.

 

[Depressed Gengar]

Is Stealth Rock banned from Wolds Finals or no?

 

[kylexv]

Interesting, what strategies did they use?

Both teams had M-Kangaskhan, Thundurus, Landorus-T, and Cresselia. Neither of them actually used Cresselia though.
One player had Aegislash and Volcarona as his last two, while the other player had Heatran and Amoongus.

Also, everyone in the Top 8 had Landorus-T on their team.

 

[AreJay25]

I don't think Nancy counts since it was just a bonus fight.

There is True Ogre though, he's about as big as Azazel (and unlike Azazel, he was playable).

Fair enough. Although I think True Ogre's a little shorter.

Guys, I have a question. What do you think is behind the mask of a Shy Guy/ Shy Gal?

Behind the mask, there is a portal to another dimension.

Nobody really uses Stealth Rock in Doubles.

 

[OurBraveHero]

Yeah but Hoopa can warp time and space as well.

So maybe... JUUUST maybe, he can be that other stand. You know the one. The one that has the same abilities as Star Platinum but is better at warping space and time because it had the entire Part 3 to train its abilities. The one Part 3 is about hunting down the owner of.

I could see Hoopa Unbound as like, maybe an unlockable Boss character that happens if they give the game an arcade mode? Because yeah Tekken has those HUGE enemies, but they do usually serve as bosses and junk.

(Or let's just toss Wailord in the game as the final boss. I'm down.)

 

[AreJay25]

I still find it strange how Charizard uses Rock Smash in... Smash.

Not so much the fact that he can actually learn it... but the fact that he literally headbutts the rock. Considering the type disadvantage, I can't help but laugh.

I really hope the console version has a true arcade mode, I mean TTT2 alone had at least 4 bosses. (granted only Unknown and Ogre felt like truer examples)

Then again the arcade version was apparently a glorified Beta test so maybe I shouldn't worry much.

 

[Starlight_Lily]

First of all, I accidentally missed Hoopa, second, have you even SEEN Machamp? He even says ORAORAORA a bit

Wait, the Hoopa event already happened!?

Where the **** does Thunder Jolt even comes from?
Jigglypuff's trainer is a terrible trainer for giving her that moveset
Lucario is a ****ing Double Team asshole spammer
Charizard's moveset is what a kid in ORAS would do without knowing they can delete HMs
Mewtwo has teleport, disable and confusion, whoever trained it should go to jail
Don't even get me started on Squirtle and Ivysaur
Greninja is the only one with a decent moveset

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Boston Police arrested two guys who threatened to shoot up the Pokemon World Tournament.

Wha-?

Thunder Jolt is actually Thunder Shock (aka Dengeki Shock in the Japanese ver).

Actually, Thunder Jolt is from the TCG.

okay really
if we're going to compare hoopa to stands, it's dirty deeds done dirt cheap
no argument

 

[ThePenguinGamer0]

So what happened during the last million pages?

 

[Ivander]

I think we should make a list of Pokemon we want in Pokken, 5 per generation

Gen 1: Blastoise, Nidorino, Eevee, Snorlax, Raichu(I don't care how many other Pikachus they put in, Raichu deserves the spotlight as Pikachu's Rival. And we know how many Mishimas there are in Tekken.)
Gen 2: Feraligatr, Azumarill, Scizor, Ampharos, Tyranitar
Gen 3: Breloom, Manectric, Absol, Sceptile, Latias/Latios(At least one of them)
Gen 4: Lopunny, Staraptor, Electivire, Gliscor, Luxray
Gen 5: Cofagrigus, Zoroark, Haxorus, Golurk, Accelgor
Gen 6: Greninja, Pangoro, Heliolisk, Tyrantrum, Barbaracle

For all Gens: At least one Pseudo-Legendary. At least one Fossil Pokemon. At least one other Legendary that isn't from Gen 1(Mewtwo) or Gen 2(Suicune). At least one Grass Starter and one Water Starter Pokemon. At least one other non-fully evolved Pokemon that isn't Pikachu.

Well dang, you're right.

Point still stands though, it didn't come outta nowhere.

I think you mean Filthy Acts at a Reasonable Price.
