Chesnaught gets Drain Punch. Combine that with Spiky Shield + Leftovers and you have a "wall". Mega Swampert can't do anything to this thing.

U-turn or Protect could work or the third slot.
Also Yveltal gets Heat Wave and Knock Off. RIP Ubers.

Yeah, I forgot U-Turn, Im breeding Pidgey with Uproar to see if that becomes viable, but it looks like not, on the other hand Outrage in M-Salamence looks good, but with the Fairies it feels better to run a moveset with.

-Dragon Claw/Outrage
-Dragon Dance/Aqua Tail
-Double-Edge/Return
-Earthquake

or MixMence for coverage
-Draco Meteor
-Double-Edge/Return/Hyper Voice
-Fire Blast
-Earthquake

OMG check out this SHIRT

Spoiler

It's from the website "Threadless"

 

[Croph]

Seriously though, I'm counting the days until Raichu gets a special event... while Pichu and Pikachu already had a ton.

I just thought of something:

HGSS = Spiky-eared Pichu
ORAS = Cosplay Pikachu
Gen IV remake = Special event Raichu??

Highly doubt it, but on the off-chance that it does, I'd pre-order 10 copies of the game and buy them all day one.

Also, Cosplay Pikachu can't evolve right? I'm assuming she'll be a similar case to the Spiky-eared Pichu.

Well I mean he's gotta have a lot of pent up sexual tension if he's always kidnapping Peach. Gotta have an outlet SOMEHOW.

Well, If he also reads this, the tension is more than obvious...

Say, is Peach all right? She looks a tad on the unhealthy side.

 

[GunGunW]

I hate that they don't give you an option to continue in All-Star Mode.

 

[Knight Dude]

So there's a Mega Hoopa? Not too surprising. Though it's a shame Flygon got the shaft. It's a good Pokemon, but it does need a boost, could have sworn that it was popular too. Kind of thought Gen 5 would get one or two more Megas as well, if we were lucky. Though who knows if there's more in the full game or not.

Still, Sceptile, Swampert, Beedrill, Camerupt and Pidgeot are my favorite Megas added to these remakes.

"A Man sentenced to death asks for a child as his last meal"

I hope this isn't true, because if it is they actually brought him a corpse for his last meal

...you do know they can deny someone's last request, right?
They didn't actually have to feed him a human child.

I suddenly imagined Kenny James voicing lines from Fifty Shades of Grey in his Bowser voice...

...Someone should go make him do that.

That's not what the article said though

So the ORAS leak revealed moar stuff, like the trainers mugshots and teams....
I gotta say, Winona looks like a prettier Beauty (Trainer Class), Glacia looks like a mid age Elsa and Wallace is Ghirahim

 

[Kenith]

Wallace is Ghirahim

Pics please

Scum like him don't deserve any meaningful attention. They should have refused his request.

 

[Arcanir]

Wow, they left most of their game in that demo, we know almost everything aside from a couple things.

Anyway, Wallace had a unique change I personally think it's neat, and Winona, Glacia and Drake look really good, Liza and Tate look way too young though.

Btw, here's the list of all of the Pokémon with their respective learnset from Move Tutors if you don't want to do the numbering.

Well, the same article still it did list a few other sites. For example Texas' death row has no one named "Doug Stephener".

I had to look up that word

Did someone actually spell "Illuminati" that wrong?

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Yep, says in several articles and sites that Texas had banned requests for special last meals in 2011 after a man who ordered an outrageously large last meal ended up choosing to not eat any of it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_meal
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/nationnow/2011/09/texas-ends-death-row-inmates-final-meals.html

So even if that freak did exist he sure as heck wouldn't have any chance of getting a child for his final meal.

In 100 years people are gonna look at Brawl and give a big "wtf?". Also I will never get over how just plain weird snake's addition was (even though i liked him).

That dress is so fabulously weird. I can't begin to explain it.

 

[Knight Dude]

After a bad 5 game lose streak, I managed to get some wins. Slowly, but surely my win ratio is getting better. I think I do better on free for alls. Or that there's better fighters on 1-on-1 mode. Which ever floats your boat.

 

[Frostwraith]

Is it just me or is every time I see someone saying that Smash4 has a disappointing or the worst roster, it makes me love and appreciate the roster even more?

Because love and hate must be balanced.

By existing more haters, the ones who love the roster will love it even more.

Such are the world's intricacies.

Note: sadism may be involved in this.

I'm just confused as to how people can complain about a 50 character roster. It's a good selection to choose from regardless of what people may think, but people apparently don't like looking at the big picture.

People are too worried about their "series representation" and how it's "unfair".

Ironically, those "representation" theories have always been wrong, so this doesn't come as a surprise.

Just finished Fullmetal Alchemist, I have never seen such a fantastic anime in my whole life.

You should watch Brotherhood as well, as it's the one that follows the manga, thus it's the original story intended by the mangaka.

One word might explain things: Sakurai.

Another should also suffice: Japan.

Also, did you know the Halberd as it appears in Brawl also appears in Kirby Super Star Ultra?

I understand Sakurai as an explanation but why was Japan to blame for this? And is the Halberd that appears in ultra different than the one that appears in the snes version? Brawl's Halberd didn't just take from SNES super star?

Man, I agree with a lot of this. Brawl was... very very strange. Some of it in a cool way (KI getting revived, NES accessory playable for some examples), some of it in a very bad way (the game wanting to be more casual but mixed with a gritty/drab art style, SSE taking itself too serious, World 1-1 and 1-2 being wastelands)

I was half-joking. The Japanese are weird.

And yes, Brawl's Halberd is based on SNES Super Star, but they did use the same model/design from Brawl for Kirby Super Star Ultra.

World 1-2 is actually true to source material since you know, it's a cave.

Still has realistic graphics that look odd for a Mario stage.

In retrospect, Brawl was trying a bit too hard to be "epic". That aspect has aged a little bit.

Pit's Brawl design that is now currently used is how Sakurai imagined if the Kid Icarus series kept going on and had an art evolution similar to, for example, Link. It's a more detailed take on his cartoon design from the first two games (NES and Of Myths and Monsters).

Compare the first artworks of Link from the first three or four Zelda games with current designs like those from Twilight Princess or Skyward Sword.

I think that's where Sakurai was going with Pit's current design.

For comparison's sake:

[collapse="NES Link vs. Smash 4 Link"]

[/collapse]

[collapse="NES Pit vs. Smash 4 Pit"]

[/collapse]

Overall, they look the same and possess the same features, but they are more detailed and given more flair in the newer designs.

 

[Naoshi]

Yeah I meant World 1-1 being a wasteland, World 1-2 had some weirdness going on too, but not on the same level. (The realistic torches bothered me lol)

Pit's redesign is pretty awesome, it was part of why I wanted to main him in Brawl.
