Huh so ScarVio has this weird quirk from revamped mechanics. It's not worth putting in a spoiler tag as most people won't care but male only mons now have access to egg moves. Guess mons can be gay

Finally, Pokemon is accurate to real-life animals.

We already had trans rep with our boy Azumarril and Sylveon too. Pokemon is for the gays

 

[TheMightyP]

Can someone give me a rundown on some of ScarVio's QoL changes (both positive or negative). I don't wanna sift through a lot of spoilers on a manchold's twitter feed.

Stall is ****ing gutted with all healing status moves being reduced to 5PP beyond Strength Sap, Zacian and Zamazenta got stat nerfs and Hail got replaced with Snow which gives a 1.5 defence boost to Ice types

That's neat. Any other notable changes?

I'm not very familiar with Pokemon's meta but does that mean that Ice types are finally fitted to play tank roles?

 

[WeirdChillFever]

That's neat. Any other notable changes?

Scald is now Heathran’s signature move and some abilities like Protean and Contrarian now only trigger once per battle (or once per swap in, but either way some strong abilities are nerfed that way)

Mightve misspelled some stuff bc idc about pockermon

not wrong at least

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Heads up for anyone that is Team Water playing Splatoon right now.

If you are all my friends list and I drop in play for a few hours and then suddenly drop out it's because I have to go back to the house I'm staying at to look after a dog, or something important came up so don't take any offense if I suddenly just go poof

 

[Wario Bros.]

Eh I'm cool with that

[I'm not a competitive player, I'm just glad I can get my Greninja to an HD game/ISPOILER]

That actually made me tear up a bit. Golden Sun music makes me emotional even though I'm not that big of a fan.

Is Greninja in this? I might download it if he is

Greninja is currently not in it but all official characters are planned to be added.

 

[TheMightyP]

Team Fire's ass.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Team Fire's ass.

Why you looking at team fires ass?

 

[Dukefire]

Let me guess, Team Fire is not doing so hot. No pun intended.

At least I won a 10x battle. I'm going strong with the Reef Lux 450

 

[TheMightyP]

Why you looking at team fires ass?

Their ass is pretty fire ngl

 

[Jondolio]

Greninja is currently not in it but all official characters are planned to be added.

Cool, then I'll download it when Greninja is added

 

[TheMightyP]

Team Fire's ass.

So after saying this my team lost a 10x battle to Team Fire maybe I jinxed it.

Water sucks

 

[Kirby Dragons]

Excited for snow, but the healing nerf is a double-edged sword. Stall teams will be less of a pain to fight, but other mons that relied on healing will be harder to use.

 

[osby]

Water sucks

Cacti after you give them 0.001 milliliters more water than you need to.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Nominees for The Game Awards come out Monday

Basically yeah. Ice also got Aurora Veil last gen which puts up Reflect and Light Screen up. You know how Garchomp is like, universally agreed to be one of the strongest pokemon of all time?

252 Atk Life Orb Garchomp Earthquake vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Cetitan in Snow: 203-239 (42.2 - 49.6%)

No defensive investment can take that like a ****ing champ

 

[Dukefire]

In 6 hours, halftime will reveal which team is leading the splatfest. Meaning one team will be the one to fall while defending....

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Damn. TheMightyP got his ass kicked so hard in the splatfest, he ****ing went to work

 

[HyperSomari64]

Imagine if Sega and Nintendo collaborated in a Sonic Strategy JRPG spin-off developed by Monolith Soft, that the marketing team decides to name it: "(Untitled Sonic Strategy JRPG): The Story of Project × Zone 3" even if the game is solely Sonic characters with no crossovers whatsoever. Would people praise or despise even if the game is good.

,i already said once half time comes around, imma not touch turf war no matter what. Im Water champ rn, i did my job

 

[TheMightyP]

Cool Splatoon Tip:

Stop using the Reefslider it is trash

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Spoiler: Bad news: pokemon style

you can apparently only battle the E4 once in your save

Im kinda missing PLA right now, ngl

 

[TheMightyP]

Alright, Splatfest festivities are on hold for now.

I have barely encountered team Grass, where y'all at?

Oops.....my bad. Thanks for the reminder

 

[TMNTSSB4]

There was a problem fetching the tweet

final island activated

 

[Shroob]

That's neat. Any other notable changes?

Protean/Libiro only activate once per switch in now, meaning Mons like Greninja and Scorbunny are a lot worse.

Almost ALL of the Isle of Armor tutor moves are MIA, meaning moves like Flip Turn, Triple Axel or Glassy Glide are gone(Rip Rillaboom).

Has there ever been a gen with this many direct nerfs?

Pretty much, nope.

Quick, someone answer, pokemon transfer question is Lopunny and Pumpkaboo transferable to scarlet and violet
