So..... can we talk about something OTHER than Pokémon?

No heathean
Don't you know the internet now only talks about two things cute cats and the national Dex

And you don't want too see me talk about cute cats

 

[Noipoi]

People will find new reasons to hate it.

You’re probably right

I should just disassociate with the Pokémon fandom completely at this point

 

[Will]

Okay professor, but you're still wrong.

why you gotta be snarky about it bro, this aint like you

Hmmm. We want cute cats eh?

Spoiler: How’s this?

 

[Ultomato]

Things could be even more hilarious.

And then you have Furret, who is a foot taller than both of them. Even Charizard is shorter than it.

That's when I learned not to take this franchise too seriously.

The stupid thing about Pokémon heights is that some are head to tail (Dunsparce) while some are profile Heights (Salamence)

You either dissociate with the Pokemon fandom or live long enough to make Pokemon memes.

 

[Ultomato]

It makes more sense when you consider some Pokémon's heights are actually their lengths. Namely any long Noodlemon like Furret, Dunsparce, or Seviper.


The real issues are the weight listings. Wailord is less dense than air because of how light it is.

He is literally the "Float Whale"
That **** was intentional

You’re probably right

The worst part is that I've talked to people who stopped playing after red/Blue (the people who scream "Pokémon was my childhood" but haven't touched it in decades)

These people take the dexit as a new reason to say "See! Modern Pokémon is ****! I told you so!"

So whether your in the fandom or not, people will not allow us to like this game.

i'll need a source on this cause every japanese version of the game i've found is solely attributed to fromsoft where the western version has the bandai/namco bandai logo

wikipedia also notes that fromsoft is the japanese publisher and only calls namco the international publisher

This is from the Japanese Dark Souls 3 trailer. It’s a little blurry. But you can clearly see at the bottom Copyright Bandai Namco/FromSoftware. Like how Pokémon is credited as Gamefreak/Nintendo. So they likely share ownership of the series.

Ult used double team: It was not very effective

Here is something I found, aparently Namco actually owns the IP:

Second or third paragraph says it.

I don't know why the games don't just specify that. It does clear the confusion.

But some measurements do still look hilariously off for other Pokémon.

Boyakasha! Vindicated and it feels so good!

Can’t wait for... I still can’t decide which one he’ll pick tbh. Artorias is the most popular boss, Solaire is kind of the mascot (and has an Amiibo), but the protagonist is Chosen Undead. I still can’t figure out which one makes the most sense.

The best part is they're perfectly consistent with it.

In the anime you use Ash as a reference point, but he's 10 years old. Off course Charizard is gonna look huge by comparison

Oddly enough, the cards used to.
https://pkmncards.com/?s=furret&display=full&sort=date&order=
The one at the bottom says 5'11'' is Furret's length, not height.

 

[Aurane]

I'm a prickly boy, atm.

 

[Mythra]

What I find interesting is that we don't have a Pokémon weighing a metric ton yet.

They refuse to reach 1,000 Kg for some reason, resulting in a lava behemoth and a literal steel rocket being at 999.4 and 999.9 Kg respectively

We can’t reach maximum thiccness, the region couldn’t take it

I think Solaire makes the most sense but I would LOVE Artorias. Especially if his final smash included Sif in some way.

Watching the CEO Top 8 as we speak.

Can't wait for the MK character or Kombat Pack reveal!

Happt birthday ol buddy ol pal

 

[ZephyrZ]

New AMA is up, so go pester ZephyrZ ZephyrZ with all your burning questions.

I've been waiting for this.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Every fandom out there has it bad apples and rough edges.

I try to ignore them in favor of sticking around for all the good parts instead.

I've been waiting for this.

Instant approval of the Tamatoa gifs.

if its not on a google doodle then its worthless to societys standards

 

[BlueMonk]

I hope they announce something real for sfv today

 

[Michael the Spikester]

So anyone think if the whole female fighter leak/rumor is true it could perhaps be Nakoruru from Samurai Showdown?

She'd easily fits the bill of "You didn't see that coming"/"Out There" pick and we know how much Sakurai likes to pull off surprises sometimes as he had with

Something to think about. Doubtful it'll happen though but just mentioning the possibility.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Quick, somebody convince Google to make a Sailor Moon-themed doodle and update the search engine's main page.

 

[Raxxel]

I'm pretty sure Capcom has practically abandoned SFV in terms of content. We'll see though. Kage was such a disappointment, it would be sad if the game ended on that note.

Oh wow, happy birthday Cardcaptor Sakura!

 

[SnakeFighter64]

I think Solaire makes the most sense but I would LOVE Artorias. Especially if his final smash included Sif in some way.

I tend to agree with this sentiment. If I HAD to pick one i’d Probably settle in Solaire. But if he’s going for just pure shock value, then it’s Artorias all the way.

Pretty sure Ono said something about an announcement in June, today's the last day

but sfv always finds new ways to disappoint
