I'm slowly going over to the Sobble Squad.

Oh geez.

Yes, join us, become One Of Us!

 

[Opossum]

Ok, let’s star betting about the names of Rose’s evil team. My bets so far are on:

>Team Fantastic
>Fantastic Squad
>Fantastic something regarding soccer
>Team Incredible

We already know the evil team name because of the leaks.

Oh, ok then.

Haven’t seen the leaks.

Speaking of national dex
MARACTUS IS ****ING IN LADS

Remember Shofu (somewhat controversially) sticking Maractus in the Top 10 Pokemon Nobody would miss from Sworld & Shield

And here it is. Feel like apart from the obligatory Gen 1 pandering, the selection of Pokemon which do make it in could be completely random

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

The team name is really weird, man.

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

Honestly, one of the only things that burns me at this point is the removal of Mega Evolutions. Those were super cool, especially Mega Charizard X...that was my favorite.

To be honest though, Z Moves did nothing for me.

Thoughts?

I suppose it doesn’t have the word “Fantastic”.

I miss megas too.

But Gigamax still rocks for me, since I am excited about trying that with Tyranitar.

for what it's worth, allister is a dude

They are referred to in the Japanese page with female pronouns.

I feel like in fairness, that just draws even more comparison to this now (and I'm glad I wasn't the only one who immediately thought of it).

There was a problem fetching the tweet

I have seen Allister for only 5 seconds, but if anyone say **** about him/her/them/yes, I will kill everyone in this room and then myself.

Even as a joke, please no.

There are very little things I choose to be serious about, but mislabeling is probably one of the ones that gets particularly under my skin.

People can use whichever official source they like, but jokes I'll be less lenient about than usual.

Mega Mawile was my jam. I loved megas.

Z moves were bland for me too, you aren't alone there.

I liked mega evolution designs, but I'd much rather have another evolution like what Gen 4 did with Togepi and Megnamite. Nothing wrong with giving charmander a permanent fourth evolution.

My favourite Mega was Lucario.

So far that one leak has got everything right so far.

Here it is if anyone wants to take a look. Obvious spoiler warning:

>Meowth looks like longcat
>Pikachu looks like retro fat Pikachu
>Farfetch'd gets an evolution

Bea is Sword, Allister is Shield.

I really never cared for Mega Evolutions, Z Moves, or Dynamaxing, but if I were to have one, It'd be Dynamaxing. I'd want something original and not something already used.

So in the US he's male while in Japan he's female... interesting.

Well now I don't look dumb for mistaking him for a girl.

 

[Deleted member]

Bae is Sword, Allister is Shield.

And Tyranitar is on Shield.

That’s the version I’m picking.

I think Robotnik there was making a joke less about the labeling, more that whatever the labeling is confirmed as, Allister is a precious gem no matter what gender she identifies as.

Not only do we have version exclusive gyms leaders, but now we have language exclusive genders. Sword and Shield is going all out, isn't it?

So, I had a dream last night that Hero dropped with a full story mode that had been in Development, but wasn't ready in time for release, where you play as each character for about 3 fights, with a CG cutscene before each one. It seemed to start with Link and the first cutscene was the beginning of the Hero trailer, the second cutscene was Link running through a small town, climbing up a building and sliding through an open window.

Just thought I would tell you guys about this weird dream that is now my extremely unlikely pipe dream for Smash DLC haha

I honestly dig that idea.

Although if that ever happened, they would have started with Joker.

Wait, what I said was mislabeling?

Because I didn't intent to joke about that.

Yeah, pretty much that.

I didn't intent to offend anyone, I just wanted to say that I really like Allister design.

Im having such a hard time doing the math on buying games right now. I gotta pull the trigger and just get Three Houses already by my money anxity is acting up

 

[osby]

Far From Home was pretty fun. Not as good as Captain Marvel for me, but I' ll put it up there with Ant-Man and the Wasp.

That's never fun to deal with. Everything going ok?

CM was an absolute banger imo.

Currently awaiting for UA3 and DQB2.

Then I will try to save some games such as Layton’s Mystery Journey, MM2 or Link’s Awakening for my birthday.

DQXIS will be mine at launch doh.

Hope you dont mind, But im going to continue calling them a boy since that is what us in the NA got. Nothing aginst nobody, I just like going by what the game localized characters as unless they typoed pff

I meant specifically the phrasing 'killing myself and everyone' bit. I'm aware it's a meme, and I didn't take any offense, I just wanted to put that out there since I know things get lost in translation/can easily start up from things that weren't one's intent.

Does that mean Mysterio was close to being as amazing as the Skrulls?

Because if so, I would be even more excited to see it at Madrid with my friend.

Why would they start with Joker?

To include him on the expanded story mode I suppose.

Huh, I saw peoples using that memes before here....maybe.

But hey, you know what? Whatever, let's move on, I don't want to cause any drama. Let's talk about instead the Metroid Stage I made on SMM2 and how you should totally play if you have SMM2 and if you're a fan of Metroid. *wink* *wink*

I finally finished this.

Finally oh geez, this took forever.
Wademan94 , Dyllybirdy , you may enjoy this.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

ive had this for years, its why I dont buy stuff for myself at all. And when I do pull the trigger, I get hit with massive guilt and never spend anything for years after

 

[Iridium]

We haven't gotten our Pikachu echo yet. It's going to come along soon enough.

Making my bets. They pull off an Emolga and do something slightly different, looking at the eastern grey squirrel.

Or we can do another rodent, in which I wouldn't mind the harvest mouse.

Saw it through PM.

I love what you did.

She gets a lot of hate, but Carol still has one of the best superhero origin stories for me, along with Shazam.

Um, I never said that. I was just comparing the movies, not characters in it. For that record, none of the Skrulls except for Thalos stood out for me.

Though, I'm sure you'll love Far From Home.

i'm not sure i completely follow how that bit of phrasing ties into mislabeling but maybe i'll leave it there

Thanks for the suggestion Osby!

And yeah, Talos was my favourite one in Captain Marvel too.

I edited my original post to better word that concern. Sorry if I jumped the gun, too used to pre-emptively preparing for arguments over things like this (thanks social media)

And nice, I'll be sure to give it a look when I'm out from work. I've been working on a few Metroid levels myself for both MM2 and Smash's stage builder.

Ah, I know what you mean. Even when money's fine, the guilt remains. Thought about seeing a counselor for it, if you have insurance? It helped me a lot.

Heck yes. Her origin was rad.

But that calls for me to have a good amount of Money to spend lol
