Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

[HyperSomari64]

Sego shoul ask Monolith Soft to make a Switch 2-exclusive Sonic spin-off inspired by Project X Zone series but with teams of three. Just like in Sonic Heroes. And what about the rest of the Scrimblo output? (Nights, Super Monkey Ball, Vectorman)
And maybe Pac-Man as a guest solo unit and any Capcom characters that fills the Scrimblo criteria.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Ok I gotta share this
So I made a Cookie Run OC (dont laugh pls)

and I put it on the subreddit asking for help to name her and minutes later someone actually made a gif of her and I have never been so touched in my life

 

[SnakeFighter64]

It's this one but I admittedly didn't read much into it so the whole thing could be a load of bologna

Spoiler

this is not how I wanted a Pokemon collection to come to existance....

Jeese why tf is Pokemon still married to the whole "Two Versions" thing. Does anyone actually like it that way?

I'd rather they have done like... ok still a port but like... a third version of Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen... AquaBlue maybe? And then do the same thing for HeartGold and SoulSilver and OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire. But then again that would be actual. work.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

It is still wild to me that it took 16 whole years to make a peak Spider-Man show...and now after 7 years there will be another peak Daredevil show...

Combine that with X-Men 97, Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur (wish it had another season), and the upcoming Spider-Noir series, thank god for the tv side of Marvel finally getting their **** together

 

[Shroob]

Take it from someone who is sucked into.another gacha, Cookie Run Kingdom

No it so isnt worth playing

Lucky girl. I play 2

[Wario Bros.]

A status update on Brawl mod REX since its reveal a whole year ago

Short answer: No, it ain't dead

Long answer: It's been taking so long because goals were changing, needed to reprioritize things, and it's now "in the final stretch." Special trailer coming soon.

What has everyone else been up to?

Day 43: Mega Rayquaza

A magical green serpent that reacts to your wishes, huh?

Clearly this is a reference to One Piece

One thing I really like about Gavv so far is how it handled secret identities, I'm not the most avid reader or anything but the way the heroes hide their identities from each other but unknowingly get closer to each other is just really good, closest I can think of lately is like, Twilight and Yor's relationship in Spy x Family and Pink Yoshi's Hyperfixation but I kinda wanna see more of that dynamic, idk, secret identities don't seem very mainstream anymore judging by like, the MCU

I have a plush of this thing but it's in hiding right now so that a certain roommate's cat doesn't go after its tassels.

Lots of folk don’t like dem secrets no more within their worlds…that and most of the MCU kinda started the trend

I get keeping your identity secret from you enemies or strangers. What I never got is keeping it a secret from your loved ones. If you really love/trust someone they should be able to help you hide the fact that you’re spider-man

 

[Cutie Gwen]

What if your loved ones don't like the hero like when Peter dated I wanna say Betty Brant? What if your loved ones end up aren't as trustworthy as you assumed and end up blabbing be it for clout or desperation? What if your loved ones want you to stop heroing out of fear for your safety? Unfortunately, even the closest friends can lose your trust.

Thing is something like this can happen.

 

[Hex D. Jess]

It’s a perfectly fine children’s anime that served as a solid introduction to Sonic and his world for the kids of the 2000’s.

Anyone who tells you it’s garbage is lying. Anyone who tells you it’s peak shonen is also lying.

It was my introduction to Sonic. I will cherish it forever regardless of its objective quality.

I just haven't seen season 3 specifically in a while, and I never watched the show subbed (supposedly the "good" version, thanks 4Kids)

Jury is still out on Daredevil. I hope it's good but it's gonna be an uphill battle to recapture the original show's magic.

 

[PLATINUM7]

While I keep progressing towards shiny Meltan, I beat the Indigo League in Let's Go Pikachu.

I was intending to try and use Pokemon I hadn't used before but mostly ended up using a nostalgia team.
Pikachu
Venusaur
Charizard
Blastoise
Kangaskhan
Mr. Mime

The last two I hadn't used before at least.

Guess it's time for Cerulean Cave.

Unfortunately, even the closest friends can lose your trust.

It’s especially worse for heroes that are underaged and/or of course another Spidey like Ghost-Spider. In that Gwen’s case, her identity being learned nearly got George killed, her friends abandoned, prison time, and banished from her own world. And then there’s underaged heroes like Moon Girl who get forced to retire from heroing until they have no choice but to damage the relationship had with their parents or guardians.

a massive lose/lose scenario for spider and young heroes alike

Day 21: Riolu

You want to use Riolu because you like Lucario a lot. I want to use Riolu because it's a fighting type and thus one of the best options for fighting Primal Dialga. We are not the same.

Unfortunately Riolu is only for men so us women are kind of locked out.

This is also the last of the starters, so for the next few days I'll be using noteworthy PMD Explorers characters.

Day 43: Mega Rayquaza

A magical green serpent that reacts to your wishes, huh?

Clearly this is a reference to One Piece

Something, something, broke the competitive scene...

Regardless of its strength, Mega Rayquaza still has a super cool design that fits its godlike power. (And also feels like even more of a Dragon Ba-cough One Piece reference.)

Top 5 Legendary, he NEEDED the Super Saiyan form while still having an item slot, please understand.

 

[ninjahmos]

It'll probably never happen, but I think it'd be pretty cool if the next Mario Party revised MP6's day and night system.

 

[Shroob]

The funniest thing about Mega Rayquaza is comparing it to Arceus

And then all of a sudden this makes a lot of sense

 

[ZephyrZ]

ORAS powercreep was kinda ridiculous.

Like Primal Reversion was cool from a lore standpoint but from a gameplay standpoint it also served as an excuse to make it so Primal Groudon/Kyogre didn't take mega slots. That was incredibly busted in its own right but just got overshadowed by Mega Ray-Ray.

Then you add that all three had broken abilities too and it's like, man, Mewtwo barely had a chance to enjoy its ugly new Megas before getting power crept in the same generation.

 

[Shroob]

Still though.


Arceus?

Mega Rayquaza?

Zacian-Crowned pre-nerf?

Calyrex Shadow Rider?


They may be strong, but they all tremble before

Time to start aggressively manifesting Mystery Dungneon Explorers DX.

Or at least a Mandibuzz form for Legends ZA.

 

[osby]

Fun fact: In Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance, Beelzebub's innate skill is called Biondetta. This is a reference to an 18th-century novel called The Devil in Love, where Beelzebub took the shape of a beautiful young woman called Biondetta.

 

[Wario Bros.]

No surprise whatsoever at Pokémon Presents' air date but glad to finally hear confirmation

Only one more week now!

 

[PLATINUM7]

Just six more Let's Go Pokémon to get.

As for the Pokémon presents, all I really want to see is Legends Z-A.

 

[TheZizz]

Look, we can't all be kawaii foxkin, it's just too statistically improbable. Maybe your spirit animal is something so majestic & dignified, maybe it's something cool like a rat which I never see. Anyway I think it touches on the proverbial question of, is there something immutable about us, or can we change literally anything about us on a whim

Let's pretend for a very short moment that Nintendo Land's Metroid Blast is canon to the Metroid series: The best place to put it in the timeline would be between Metroid 1 and Metroid Prime.

Avatar is getting a sequel show set after The Legend of Korra.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

I'm curious y'all. I've asked about your favorite Pokemon in general before, but what are your most preferred starters from each Pokemon generation?

For me personally...
Kanto: Squirtle
Johto: CHIKORITA
Hoenn: Treecko, despite the moveset issues
Sinnoh: Piplup
Unova: Snivy
Kalos: Fennekin, but I've chosen them all a LOT. This is the best gen for starters IMO
Alola: Litten
Galar: SOBBLE BAYBEEEEE
Paldea: Fuecoco, but I have some love for Sprigatito cuz I think Meowscarada would be Gabby Disventure Camp's favorite Pokemon
