Social Ultimate Social Thread: Under Construction. Be Back Soon!

Wait, so the Pokemon direct is tomorrow...
Tomorrow, my Switch is arriving in the mail.
I think the universe is trying to tell me that I need to play Pokemon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hey, you're a big fan of Daisy, right?

If I remember correctly, in fanfictions, the principess have Pokemons as favorites.

 

[Deleted member]

I hope we get another Ghost type starter tbh

Gimme a fairy starter over anything else ANY DAY

 

[Deleted member]

Random game: which Smasher would own at a dance off?

Inkling.

Have you seen down tilt? They'd be the best breakdancers around!

They're the masters of dance.

i mean that's cool too
i just like ghosts
fight me

 

[Cracke]

Is is too much to ask for new mega evolutions?

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Well, "Ghost type" doesn't necessarily mean "is literally a ghost". It tends to be associated with death/ominous/"extra sense" type things, but not necessarily "yo this pokemon dead lol"


Alolan Marowack: "The bones it possesses were once its mother's. Its mother's regrets have become like a vengeful spirit protecting this Pokémon." - Kinda like a fire bender if the fire was his mom lol

EDIT:
Also, Oricorio doesn't die when you feed it the purple nectar lol

unless you are phantump which a literal dead kid

 

[Pyra]

unless you are phantump which a literal dead kid

which is true, but the phantump itself is alive

Flygon needs some well deserved time in the spotlight.

C'mon Game Freak, make it happen!

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

yeah
Alive with the spirit of a dead kid

 

[Pyra]

yeah
Alive with the spirit of a dead kid

Makes you wonder how they breed

But I need my fluffy dragon fox cat creature, now!

Fighting-Type Ninja Eeveelution when

Part of me wants to watch the Pokemon Direct, but I know nothing about Pokemon these days, so I'm not sure if it'll hold my interest. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There's something poetic about the Flygon spirit battle using Ridley as the stand-in.

Surprised no one has suggested Sheik re: dance offs tbh

I mean it's only 7 minutes long
It'll probably at least be slightly interesting

Tbf, nobody said Kirby either, even though he dances in all of his victory animations.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

ive always wondered how do most pokemon breed and what happens when you put a legendary in there. Do the pokemon just act like cats in heat and bother said legendary and its just like

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

yeah

Some things in Pokemon, are best left unanswered.

Like how a tiny Pokemon like Skitty can breed with the humongous Wailord

Of course, they’ll have to compete against and their down smashes. What other Nintendo characters got a DDR game about them, after all?

I hope they do work on previous gimmicks so they didn't feel like throwaways tbh. At least Megas.
Though it would be a safe bet to say they're just gonna focus on some new gimmick again.

If it's a new gimmick, let it be Pokemon fusion
Let's get in on more of the darker side of Pokemon genetic research lol

Hey, I don't have a gaming channel!

His stuff is actually really funny

 

[Deleted member]

I' m kind of surprised the Direct will only be 7 minutes to be honest cause let's assume they will show Gen 8 I would expect for them to have more than 7 minutes worth of content to show off. It's a new gen after-all! you have the region you'd need to explain, you have the starters, the story, the other Pokemon etc.

Name reveal on a public forum smh do you know how dissapointed Gwen would be

It'll be a 7 minute version of those region overview video's they've been dropping

They'll spend a few minutes talking about how far Pokemon has come, and then have a short trailer revealing starters and legends and gameplay clips.

 

[Wyoming]

Is 7 minutes really a Direct? Might as well have called it something else.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Its a reverse harem called Diabolik Lovers. a vampire game made anime

its.....not so good if I were to be honest and I watched it mostly for this guy and Im all for vampire boys...imma sucker for vampire boys

We'll get more at E3 I'm sure. Maybe smaller events like PAX also?

Pokemon Directs are usually short.

They usually do those kinds of Pokémon reveals, feature reveals, exposition about the region, ect. in many separate updates on Pokémon.com over the course of the pre-release period, so this isn’t surprising. (We’ll have to wait and see how much of that 7 minutes is actually footage, if any, ahaha...)

The initial Sun and Moon Direct was only 6 minutes, so it isn't surprising that this direct is only 7 minutes.

I mean they'd probably make it work but I would've liked them to give more info maybe bump the time up to ten minutes if they really don't have so much to show. I don't doubt they'd do a fine job making 7 minutes work just that I would've liked it to be longer is all.

 

[Wyoming]

Can't wait for them to announce Brave in this Direct!!!
