Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

[Noipoi]

If Nintendo’s really gearing up for their next console, they gotta be terrified.

“Don’t pull another Wii U launch…don’t pull another Wii U launch…”

 

[TheMightyP]

Nintendo Swiitch.

And it's the X-Box One reveal all over again.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Why do you think they've never brought back Spikey-Eared Pichu as an event Pokemon after HGSS? Kinda weird it's locked to that game and can't even be traded forward into future games or Bank.

 

[Guynamednelson]

The Nintendo Seriously, this is not an addon for your Switch. It is a new system.

Or Nintendo STINAAFYSIIANS for short.

Same reason they never brought back Cosplay Pikachu.


It was just a gimmick they thought would be neat.

This is so weird to me... like this is back when they brought every pokemon back every time. Like... your answer makes sense I guess but it still confuses me.

Hopefully they eventually decide to re-do the gimmick so we can at least get them into Home.

He doesn’t have a passport

It's funny how music can have such strong feelings on someone.


Sometimes I just turn on the Gen 2 soundtrack, and I can't explain it, but the songs have this really mellow, almost sad tone to them which is really... relaxing?

 

[TMNTSSB4]

never thought I’d see Shinjiro cry

 

[Lamperouge]

The new Spirits are now mine.

Welp, that's my Pokemon fix for the month.

The Cave theme is actually relaxing to me so I get it.

Though as a Gen 5 baby, I put on that soundtrack and I kinda want to dance. Absolutely not relaxing tunes imo but I try my hardest to power through work/projects through them without busting a move.

You get enough Pokémon in your veins just hanging around this thread

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Should Deoxys be counted as a Kanto pokemon since the event you catch him in originally occurs on one of the Sevii Islands in FireRed/LeafGreen? (I know the event reappears in Emerald but it still takes you to the same place via boat).

I'm only thinking about this because I like to re-order the pokedex sometimes, grouping babies and evolutions introduced later with their original forms and such. And sometimes I think about sticking Meltan and Melmetal in the Kanto section because they were introduced in Let's Go, but then part of me feels like if I do that for them I have to do that for Deoxys too because of what I said above and that just feels weird.

 

[TheMightyP]

Ngl, I wish the Pokemon Stars rumors were actually true because SuMo in HD would go hard.

Like that game is still gorgeous to this day.

I think the in universe explanation is that it time traveled too much, so the Pichu could not leave HGSS.

I guess the best way to describe it is peaceful, almost a lazy, laid back feeling with a twinge of nostalgia. Gen 1's music is a lot more like you're going on an adventure, and gen 3 is VERY adventurous, whereas Gen 2 feels just... mellow.

tbf, we don't know where in the world Birth Island is. The fact that Deoxys originates from Outer Space arguably means it's a more universal Pokemon.

At least until someone notices Mario having six fingers.

Mario with six fingers, huh?

: "What? Who is that...?"

: "The-a author a of the-a journals...My brother."

Gen 1 was an adventure
Gen 2 was vibes
Gen 3 was a grand adventure
Gen 4 was vibes, Sinnoh was pretty cozy until the worst designed dungeons hit
Gen 5 was a mix of both, the main game was adventure but post game was 100% vibes
Gen 6 was... idk actually
Gen 7 was vibes but Hawaiian
Gen 8 was mostly tracks to amp you up, like a stadium
Gen 9 was just whimsical adventure until you hit the endgame where it suddenly becomes X-Files

 

[Shroob]

Gen 6 was... idk actually

French

My greatest Tekken 8 custom yet: Walu-Lee-gi

Which one was the hardest to get?
For me it was Terapagos.
Stupid golden Squirtle...

Terapagos was easily the hardest if only because the Final Smash launches you into the blast zone more often than not.

Koraidon and Miraidon kicked my ass for a bit.

Terapagos took me three tries

Idk, I cheesed them all with my own Spirits

 

[Shroob]

So what are we guessing for the final bunch?



Elfilin for Forgotten Realm
Colgate Twins for Engage
Elephant Mario(Wowie Zowie) for Wonder

?

Either your guesses, or the homies from Smash 64.

What if it's a bunch of random third party characters again like the second bunch?

That'd be neat

But it'd be weird that Mario Wonder woulda gotten skipped over....


........Unless

HE'S IN BOIZ

Geno and Waluigi fans join forces to cope and seethe

They didn't Wowie their Zowie hard enough.

 

[TheMightyP]

Thousand Year Door remake doesn't have Spirits either. Looks like Paper Mario is on the menu

 

[Cutie Gwen]

You guys had trouble with the Spirit battles? Closest I came to losing was the legendaries cause the zap floor disables my preferred strategy of Giant Ike swinging that forward smash to kill anything instantly lol

 

[TheMightyP]

Legit though I seriously wish support for Paper Mario was as loud as Geno's. Gen Z and younger millennials can we please rally together or something?

New Project Voltage song; “Huh, Muddled” by Kuriyama Yuri ft. Miku and Meiko. It’s cool and is a ghost-themed song:

You never played stars on the switch?

It had all the fun visual touches Scarlet and Violet had!
