Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[Coricus]

Avatar change in honor of Pokemon Day coming up.

I'll join the "everyone should change their avatar to their favorite Pokemon" bandwagon.

. . .Fiiiiiiine, I'll stop procrastinating.

*draws something really wobbly on the spot*

There.

 

[Z25]

So much pokemon love right now! Reminds me of the pokemon parades that are held in Japan.

I wouldn't mind seeing that happen on Saturday.

 

[BluePikmin11]

I already changed into my favorite Ice type "Pokemon" for the celebration.

[Substitution]

Bah. Everyone picking all these cretinous Pokemon.
There is only one true Pokemon! And that is Substitutes!

Oh no.

The dolls are coming alive! The dolls are coming alive! Horror movies are real!!

I'll be that one person who has a Digimon avatar on Saturday.

[Wolfie557]

Does Fire Emblem have any worthwhile fan art?

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I will change my avatar for Pokemon Day as well.

Some people are probably already well aware of what my favorite is. Others of you probably have no idea.

 

[Wario Bros.]

So what if Gen VII finally reveals what Poké Maniac is dressed as in HeartGold & SoulSilver

Sonic social media literally won an award.

 

[ChikoLad]

Dunno if it was still being discussed, but when it comes to reveals that ticked people off, Rosalina is the god of that.

People got so ticked off by it, that "Nintendo's Lightning" became a term, as well as "X company's Lightning" in general.

You can't make this **** up.

This is literally the funniest thing I have seen put onto the plaque of an award.

I've always loved this one.

Spoiler

THe hair colors not being their "canon" ones are a bit annoying though.


I'm sure there is a hell of a lot more of it though lol

EDIT found a better version

I always thought it was a really bad Scyther costume.

I was just looking at Substitution and wondering if we'd ever get a Pokémon for that.

idc I LOVED it.

She was my #1 most wanted back then, after all. I still reacted in a bigger and more hype way than Bayonetta. Palutena's is 3rd.

I've always loved this one.

*saves*
Thanks for the reply. I'll put that in my list to search for.

 

[Curious Villager]

Might as well join the poke bandwagon too while I'm at it.
And Jiggles it is. I'll save the other one for Halloween......

 

[ChikoLad]

I kinda want to change my avatar to my favourite Pokémon but this current one is just so funny to me.

 

[Z25]

I was just looking at Substitution and wondering if we'd ever get a Pokémon for that.

I still want this:

Spoiler: Large Image, Phantitute

with an alternate form like Zen Mode Darmanitain like this:

Spoiler: Large Image, Alt form

It be a cool way to incorporate the substitute doll and have a parallel to bannette.

I kid. I kid.

But if I did this, I'd instead go with "Keitai Denjū Telefang"

 

[Deleted member]

Changed my avatar too because I like to joing bandwagons
And also because obscure Nuzlocke comics
So I'll stay with the most murderous and cutest Totodile I've ever seen

 

[powerprotoman]

my avi has allways been about pokemon.....its a pokemon ranger

 

[Chandeelure]

I changed my avatar too.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

My avatar is already my favorite ponymon

 

[Z25]

Man, I wish we would get a sequel to that...

At least it's coming to VC.

I changed my avatar too.

I was right in what I said you were yesterday!

Chanwadulure!

 

[ChikoLad]

I tried to make an avatar.

It's not very good but I'm tired right now so meh. Gonna go to bed.

-----

I just realised the Pokémon Direct will be on at 3PM GMT.

Welp, I'm at work then...

 

[Aetheri]

Man everybody's joining the bandwagon so soon?

I'm too fond of my Cross to change it now (plus I need to do some preparations first )

But I'll hop on board come Saturday, maybe Friday if I don't procrastinate...

 

[aldelaro5]

oh pkmn direct......cool....

but.....I want a global one

(tbh, I just recently started to care less about playing pokemon.....).

Nintendo will most likely be pretty quiet until E3.

[Fenriraga]

Passed by a Build-a-bear in the mall... They have Pikachus for the 20th.

...

I hate being 21 sometimes.

Well this direct could be a sign that they plan to do more throughout the year. We will just have to wait and see!

Although I wouldn't expect anything more then 1( maybe 2) directs before E3.

They started this two month ago I believe.

It's not to bad, and it does have cool outfits like the oras one( I think)and charziard chu.

Just remember by the end of the day, it's around $80 to make that pikachu.

When you could buy a much cheaper one online.

 

[Curious Villager]

So wait, Pokemon became a thing when I was only one?

This feels so surreal.... I don't know why I'm now thinking about this.....

 

[Deleted member]

It's tough being a Waluigi fan. I've made a similar request on the Lilac video and a bunch of ***hats would say "But's he's an AT!" or "There's already enough ****ing Mario characters". And I'll be like "Yes, I know. Can't I request a damn character that I like you ****ing Yanks?"

Normally I would not say any form of derogatory slur towards Americans, but I sometimes lose it when pushed to the edge. That's why I'm at the point where I block any idiot on YouTube/Google+ like Kamiya would. Enough of the Smash idiots indeed.

As both a Waluigi fan and an American, both sides in this displease me.

I wasn't born for over half a year. . .

.....this pokmn directs honestly doesn;t mean that, I mean we did got one last year.....

But the thign is I do have a lot of reasons to care for a global direct:

• So that this Paper Mario runmor likely becomes false (I am loosing a lot of faith in it because if they were this close to get it done, they woudlnm;t wait this long to announce it)
• It's likely one of or the last direct before the NX announcement which shoudl be interesting
• Super paper Mario is still leaked to be on JP VC so seriously, I hope we can get stuff on that
• details ont he nintendo account thingy, what are platinum points? Why a paper would care?
• Curious on how the new CEO meant by goign to have chnages on the directs
• HYPE!
• ^but on an irc channel

Like I jsut want one

[Frostwraith]

I was 2 when Pokémon came out in Japan, about to be 3.

The game only came out in the West a few years later, though. I was about 7 or 8 when I first started playing... I think. Memory is kind of hazy.

 

[Curious Villager]

Yeah.... Time feels like it's speeding up though, It feels like it was just yesterday when Mario and Zelda had their 25th anniversaries, and they have now more or less passed their 30th. Not to mention games like Twilight Princess and Professor Layton approaching their 10th anniversaries. These games and series feel like they came out just yesterday.

Maybe I'm just feeling old..... :T

aaaaand that's how you make me feel old...

Oh.... sorry.... ^^;

 

[Depressed Gengar]

I was on the Pokémon bandwagon before it was cool.
Being honest though I'm not hyped about the direct really. Keeping those expectations low, you know.
