C'Mon guys, the South isn't THAT bad.

yes it is. it is literally as bad as everyone makes it out to be

 

[staindgrey]

living in the deep south has me squinting at every red hat I see, it's very aggravating

Dude, I'm being real here. I stopped wearing all my red baseball caps specifically so no one would think for a second that the tall white dude in the red hat is a MAGA guy at first glance.

And I'm a Buckeyes/Reds fan. Almost all the hats I own are bright red.

well southern virginia hella is

i've been living a mildly sheltered life and have never been called any kind of racial slur irl until i went to south virginia to visit some family

 

[Cosmic77]

Watch Mewtwo get a super ultra OP evolution in the next Gen that makes him superior to every single Pokemon.

And then Rayquaza comes in and...

 

[Pakky]

MEWTHREE GANG RISE UP

Wanted this since I was 10 and read that bad fanfic!

Watch Mewtwo get a super ultra OP evolution in the next Gen that makes him superior to every single Pokemon.

And then Rayquaza comes in and...

Deoxys gang rise!!!

 

[Captain Shwampy]

one thing worth noting about gen 8 is the art director is james turner who designed Trevenant, Vanillite, Buzzwole, etc

 

[Deleted member]

The South gets a bad rep. There a plenty of nice people where I live.

MEWTHREE GANG RISE UP

Isn’t that the product of a bad fan fiction?

 

[N3ON]

really, who honestly wants to play kanto AGAIN?

I'd play any of the first three gens on loop.

The next villainous Pokemon team needs to straight up be Creationists.

Didn't Arceus create much of the Pokemon world? They'd be right.

 

[staindgrey]

really, who honestly wants to play kanto AGAIN?

Depends.

Is it immediately following Johto? Because Johto's my favorite and Silver/Soul Silver had Kanto too. So.

 

[Gyrom8]

Aite, given the currently discussion topic, I'd like to gauge people's opinions (on Pokemon, not the South)

There's this website (click here) where you're asked to enter your favourite Pokemon of each type. There are similar-ish favourite Pokemon quizzes, but this one seems to be the quickest to fill in. Who are your favourites?

Spoiler: My favourite pogermen

We're going to be okay.

Is being considered a bad thing or a good thing?

 

[Deleted member]

Depends.

Good to see some taste around here.
I always thought Johto had the most nice looking locations. Region overall just has a really nice aesthetic. Unova was pretty good too.

 

[Ura]

Didn't Arceus create much of the Pokemon world? They'd be right.

True that. I meant like a villainous team that shuns anyone that tries to evolve their Pokemon and uses some Everstone-like technology to make sure PKMN never evolve. Sort of like a devout cult following.

 

[Pakky]

really, who honestly wants to play kanto AGAIN?

Only if those dirty hillbillies from the north have defiled the region with their landsharks and otters.

Variants are a good idea.

 

[Pyra]

To everyone here who currently does not have a roommate:

I envy you and I wish to be you.

I make lots of people jealous between my good looks and my loneliness.

 

[Captain Shwampy]

Idk
hes gamefreaks only guy that works with 3d graphics most of the time

hes not a senior designer on the level of other guys, and you know japanese prefer to promote people that are old in the company so them skipping to him for the role probably has some reason, and the reason would PROBABLY be 3D graphics

well southern virginia hella is

i've been living a mildly sheltered life and have never been called any kind of racial slur irl until i went to south virginia to visit some family

I've lived in rural south Louisiana for half of my life and it is as racist and homophobic as it gets here. Back when I managed a grocery store, I had a dude tell me that he has no use for a [gay slur] literally just because an elton john song was playing on our radio. If a middle eastern looking person was in line, then no one else would be in line next to them. And that's not even talking about the open klan members I met on a daily basis

Yikes. I live in the North and I hate Trump.

Also I thought Confederate Flags would be banned, but they are there? I do not know much about Southern life.

can't wait for corocoro leaks and the competitive scene to change. Not big on gen 7 competitive at the moment. Kinda hate toxapex

Toxapex is fine for me, but I think a lot of toxic players would love to play Toxapex in Apex Legends.

What do you mean? I very much enjoy every other race coming together to make fun of me because I'm Asian here.

 

[ClaTheBae]

Also I thought Confederate Flags would be banned, but they are there?

banning the confederate flag would be incredibly unconstitutional. You cannot do that.

Depemds on your taste, I like his designs though.

 

[Just a penguin]

C'Mon guys, the South isn't THAT bad.

Yeah, I don't know what they're talking about. I live in the South. There's ice and other penguins and scientists, and it really isn't that bad.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Does virgina beach count as southern? because I sure as HELL never heard anyone call me the N word

 

[Deleted member]

I gimped a Marth around 20% with Mac and somehow made it back in stage.

Mac is pretty fun.

 

[Deleted member]

Does virgina beach count as southern? because I sure as HELL never heard anyone call me the N word

virginia beach is actually pretty damn liberal despite being south af geographically
when i say southern i mean like, rural deep south

 

[Pakky]

Depemds on your taste, I like his designs though.

I guess if you like 'its just an animal with X flowing out of it' Gen 8 ain't gonna be for you.

I like and Buzzwole is more align with them so I'm all good.

Also home from work tummy was in knots

 

[N3ON]

My pick is for Pokemon Left and Pokemon Right.

Because some people just want to watch the world burn.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

oooh oh then yeah **** that.

bad taste, pokemon east and west is better

 

[ClaTheBae]

Well darn tootin missy, how bout you bring your tush over here to the southern coast where the only thing you gon' hear more than racial slurs is country music and obscenely loud trucks

 

[N3ON]

bad taste, pokemon east and west is better

Bad taste is the point.

 

[Deleted member]

obscenely loud trucks

coal roller hours

 

[Deleted member]

I mean evolution in pokemon is more like growth stages if anything. So they'd just be.... Uh.... Yeah....

virginia beach is actually pretty damn liberal despite being south af geographically
when i say southern i mean like, rural deep south

And funnily enough, southern Florida is the liberal part of Florida, but yeah.

 

[ClaTheBae]

coal roller hours

I'm more referring to

that pull up next to you in traffic and are so loud that they disrupt any conversation in a half mile radius

 

[Deleted member]

Yeah I live in the South (Georgia) and I really don't like it. Most people aren't very friendly and are quite annoying, most people here support MAGA which I don't like. It's just boring and not very friendly, when I move out I'm heavily considering moving to Indiana cause the time I spend up there is quite nice and friendly.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Well darn tootin missy, how bout you bring your tush over here to the southern coast where the only thing you gon' hear more than racial slurs is country music and obscenely loud trucks

Whoa there, good sir, I didnt ask you to open up hell

 

[Deleted member]

that pull up next to you in traffic and are so loud that they disrupt any conversation in a half mile radius

this man has probably called me homophobic slurs at some point in his life

 

[Just a penguin]

My pick is for Pokemon Left and Pokemon Right.

Because some people just want to watch the world burn.

Wait, we oughtta combine both topics at the same time and make the worst pokemon game yet. Pokemon North and South.

 

[ZephyrZ]

Hold up you guys don't get MAGA hats up North?

I mostly see them on the heads of elderly folk at Walmart, but they're still here in this peaceful, high Mexican population little town in Arizona I live in. I just assumed that you saw them everywhere.

I’m guessing that’s because they wanted to ease in payers who are only familiar with Pokemon GO/Gen 1 considering it’s their first mainline console entry. Not sure about them being polished up though, all I know is that they were designed with future hardware in mind.

Then why not just lock them until post game, like with past remakes?

I really think it has more to do with Let's Go being a game rushed out before development for the proper Switch title was complete.
