Making Zelda playable only works if you make her story and possibly even her gameplay, completely different.

Linkle and Aryll work as a female equivalent to Link because they currently don't have a role and backstory in the extended lore of the franchise.
I mean yeah that'd work for me too. I'd actually prefer that as you could really differ the two plots even further and the abilities between her and Link as well.
^this...

What I'm talking about, Either you can choose to play as Link or Zelda, and the roles, and gameplay differ depending on who you chose...or giving Zelda the full spotlight in one title...not every Zelda in Hyrule's history has an awakened hero present during a crisis...such as during the Adult timeline during the flood of Hyrule...

or even switch between the two at certain points (ala Medli/Makar or Kafei for example), but with a much more involved playable role than in Spirit Tracks which was very limited...

Princess Zelda is part of a list of Nintendo characters that I feel are long overdue for a spin-off game.

Holy ****. Apparently, Zach Snyder didn't like stuff like Batman Begins, which is completely cool, opinions are a thing. But he didn't like seeing Batman's parents get killed.
- Didn't like seeing Batman's parents die
- Batman's parents dying is literally the opening of BvS and plays a role later in the film.

Either he means how it was done in BB (fair enough I guess) or he's being his usual dumb self.

Didn't Ben Affleck manage to convince Snyder to change stuff about Batman so fans would be happy? Honestly, Snyder can go **** himself. Apparently, he doesn't even like Superman. It's sad when Snyder could be considered the Michael Bay of superhero movies, nothing but alright action scenes and ****

So we're now in the month where CoroCoro is promising real Pokémon Sun & Moon info.

Think we might get something before the CoroCoro leaks?
I honestly think we will. Serebii said on his Twitter that Corocoro said "The major announcement the world has been waiting for is coming in May!!" rather then referring to its next issue, which implies that whatever news is coming won't be exclusive to them. Coupling that with the fact that Pokémon usually drops its first big news in May, and I think we'll get something major this month before Corocoro gets to it.

What day will Corocoro leak again? We ****ing better get more than just Solgaleo and Lunaala's designs considering how long we've been waiting for official news

They should make a dragon mystic quest so people in America can learn to play the series

I just realized how pathetic now. I'm on the internet at half past 2 in the morning sipping a cheap knockoff Fanta expecting good stuff to happen. I think I should try to do something about that. Anyone have any ideas? I was thinking that cycling could help

Simple, ask yourself this:

"Substitution is also one to have a crappy sleep schedule. Would you want to stoop to Substitution's level?
Of course not. No one wants to be Substitution."

...And maybe cycling I guess. I hear that works too.

I just want some good trainer designs and the customization feature to return. It was good being myself for once, minus the lack of a weight slider (which doesn't need to be a thing).

First stages only.
Which means at best a little kitten. Of kindling.
A Kindlen.
Or Purrn.
Or Flamline.
If it's a striped kitten at least we'll get a glimpse of what's to come

How would you react if the starters were based on those guys :




:troll:
Since I can't think of their names atm:
Tiger= Fire type
Toucan= Water type
Bee= Grass type

No one would pick the bee as a starter, though.

I would absolutely pick a bee as a starter. I don't think there are many animals for pokemon I could pick over. Vespiquen IS one of my favorite pokemon after all. I would love it even more if it was a grass type because the grass types are usually my favorite.

My preferred starter trio would be a fire Tiger, water Elephant, and grass Peacock...you guys can keep your cereal mascots...


but based on the names that were trademarked that may not happen...but a fire tiger is still possible it seems...

I don't really care about the first form of the starters anymore, I remember I said Froakie looked terrible and Chespin cool, then they evolved and... yeah.


Milk Tsunami.
I usually have the starter I want picked from just seeing their first form. I knew I was going to like the frog from the start.

I want Fire/Ground Bull, Water/Fighting Crocodile and Grass/Flying Hawk Trio.

Also I want a Pokemon that's a Ice/Poison type.
I don't think their going to add another crocodilian starter.

I finally saw the "starter" trademarks after only seeing the legendary trademarks after all this time.

I'll just wait a bit before I go for it completely.

A water Elephant is just too appropriate given their trunk could double as a water hose...plus elephants are surprisingly good swimmers...

Grass Peacock would just be pretty AF, with all sorts of flowers and stuff in it's plumage...

And the Fire tiger better end up with a glorious fiery mane, like Pyroar should've gotten...

...Since when do Tigers have manes?
I know they have like a bit of a fluffy looking "face" but it certainly is no mane

I would love a Squid based starter that is eventually water fighting and stands to 2 tentacles and fights with the other 6.

Fire tiger would be okay I guess. And the Wood Owl which I fully believe in looks good, as long as it ends up growing a badass Chinese-Cliche style moustache and goatee.

I have two long overdue requests for Gen VII:

1) A dolphin Pokémon
2) A Dark-type Gym Leader

Anything else is a bonus.

I swear to Naga everyone in my party in FE7 is secretely a ninja. In chapter 22 Ninian dodged at least 5 attacks, Florina didn't get hit once and I had her on the front lines the entire time, Priscilla dodged a few attacks, and Lyn Legault and Eliwood have always been unhittable.

Who needs strategy when you are invulnerable?


Looking at 22x and all those promoted units i'm about to get ****ed. Hard. Erk, Kent, Isadora, and Florina are my only promoted units and Kent has terrible stats.
