Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

[Michael the Spikester]

Let's remember this...

The animated Popeye movie was scrapped in favor for The Emoji Movie.

And here we are getting two Popeye horror movies...

What has cinema come to...

Just watched this again...and it's frankly sad how it still holds up even one generation later (and, if anything, has grown MORE relevant after Terastalization).

The current type chart is just not balanced right now. Snow at least helped Ice be better, but Bug is still total freaking garbage, and Terastalizing made Steel even more insanely broken than it already was. Rock and Poison aren't doing too great either.

The type chart HAS to change - a new type, changing resistances and weaknesses (WHY DOES FAIRY RESIST BUG, also Rock should resist itself prove me wrong), just SOMETHING. Because the way it is, some types are just completely gimped, preventing some really popular Pokemon like Snom, Malamar, Abomasnow, Leavanny and several others from being able to do ANYTHING. That's why my own type Love is not only super-effective against Steel, but also immune to it.

Public domain was a mistake...

Rant over.

One thing I'm pretty interested about public domain stuff is this, kinda excited to play it soon:

Here's the plot:

 

[Pink Yoshi]

While pondering on ideas for the Purore region, I came up with a new type of weather - something that I think could be really interesting.

Once we're away from Terasteel- I mean Terastalization, Fairy will probably return to dominance, in addition to the addition of Love-type nerfing the Steels it usually worries about. So to prevent Fairy from getting TOO dominant, here's a weather that not only nerfs it, but also adds a huge boost to the struggling Poison type. Once a Poison type gets some Acid rain up, not only will you struggle to remove Poison types from the field due to their essential free Leftovers, BUT their Sludge Bombs and Sludge Waves will hit even harder.

And an update to the Poison Typergy ability, Ultra Toxic: not only do Normal-type moves become Poison Type, and not only do all Poison moves do double damage to poisoned foes, and NOT ONLY can all Poison Type moves damage Steel types...but the ability also calls forth Acid Rain, which can't be removed until another Typergy ability brings in new weather.

...I think I just made Poison types completely broken.

I guess the Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse was Disney's last hurrah for the mouse before going public. Well, Steamboat Willie mickey at least..

I am contemplating spending an obscene amount of money on Sonic figures (I should probably wait until next month)

So apparently another Grinch horror is being made...

I'm so sick and tired of this trend turning childhood favorite into these slasher villains.

Winnie the Pooh, Popeye, Steamboat Willie, etc.

Not because it "destroys" your childhood but it's just lazy, uncreative and unoriginal when you can do more creativity with these characters in the public domain.

Hate to imagine 50 years from now... Horror slashers on Super Mario Bros., Sonic the Hedgehog, Spongebob. God imagine what they'd do with Pokémon...

Donkey Kong horror movie...Dear God the horror...

But civilization probably won't be around by then...Hopefully I'll be dead by then.

Public domain was a mistake...

Rant over.

I find it hilarious how people allow another take on a character or story “destroy” their childhood. The simple remedy is just don’t watch the new/changed version and keep enjoying the old/original version.

One of these days I want there to be an elephant starter Pokemon, and I want it to be huge.

Most starter Pokemon are around 1 foot tall, the biggest max out at around 2 and a half feet. I want this baby elephant to be like 3’11” and really chonky. And it only gets bigger
