  1. Dammit, no Boomburst tutor.  Primarina's hidden ability remains wasted potential.

     

    In the official games at least.  I feel like she might get some use out of Echoed Voice in Reborn though.

      Well they didn't learn enough to realize liquid voice was almost equal to a waste of HA lol

      eh, it's not that bad. I mean compared to Long Reach. It is still useful if nothing else, seeing as Stab Hyper Voice is still better than surf cuz it doesn't hit your team member and it does through sub

      Primarina got sparkling aria, which is similar to hyper voice in that it's a sound move, and yet does damage to your ally as well which is pointless xD Guess liquid voice ain't as useless as is her signature move... For Reborn I'm thinking of switching to HA for some double battles as they're quite abundant :P

  2. Ultra Sun/Moon spoiler:

     

     

     

     

    Tfw you try so hard to make Z-moves as good as megas that you make one that IS a mega

  3. Done everything up to the point where you do the thing at the altar of plot device. I'm stopping there for now because that's where I'm pretty sure the story's gonna really start to diverge from Sun and Moon original. Non-story stuff: Story Stuff:
  4. Yeah I'll admit, I was wrong about that story choice. Not battling Taka is clearly the "correct" timeline for the secret ending. You can understand how I'd make that mistake, since every other "correct" choice requires taking the harder path. Which one I think is better, however, well...
  5. Beat Ula'ula island as well as the raid on Aether. Non-story stuff: Story Stuff: And even though I've only just begun Poni Island, I already have something thing to say.
  6. Maybe it's just the team I'm using this time around, but Ultra Sun is definitely harder for me than regular Sun so far.  This is without the exp share of course, also I'm not really using the Rotom powers.

      they did make it a bit harder from my point of view as well. between the new totems and updated totam move sets it's no cakewalk anymore. still not extremely hard but still

  7. Oh boy a Magic School Bus remake?  This could be awesom-(sees the trailer) oh God why

  8. Okay, now I've cleared Akala Island. Non-story stuff Story stuff
  9. Hah, I knew he'd do it!  Ash carried the 2,204 pound Cosmoem.

      I mean Lillie did it too, so it's not that impressive (unless she's build like a JoJo under those clothes).

      Not only that. You see pikachu lift it up and down as if it weighs nothing

      Ash is secretly a Machoke without the belt Confirmed?

  10. Please tell me there's a way to turn off the Rotom Dex's random "advice"...

    1. Wolfox

      not that I know of, sorry

  11. Alolan Photo Club was a mistake...

  12. So I was able to get the game at a discount, not sure yet if I can consider it worth full price if you've already played the first games. I haven't gotten very far yet (only just beat the first trial) but I think I have enough to give my thoughts so far. Also I'm going into this about 60% spoiler free, I stopped looking at anything the moment they revealed the Battle Factory was coming back. So if anything I say sounds ignorant of what's coming later, that's why. First, the non-story stuff. And now some thoughts on the story difference, of which there was slightly more than I expected this early on.
  13. Lol @ the new Battlefront game.  Imagine if you bought a Smash Bros game and the only character was the Mii Fighter, and every single other person from Mario to Olimar was paid DLC, or alternatively you could grind coins for 40 hours and unlock ONE of them.  That's what it's like.

      ..............just when I was about to post this video

       

       

  14. It might sound hypocritical of me to say this, but I kinda agree with the guy that the new exp share is a good quality of life improvement... ...in the postgame. When you're training lots of things at once to get them Battle-Facility ready or to evolve them for dex completion. In the main story though? Lol no it's a "make the game ungodly easy" button. So that's what Ame should do in my opinion, add the new exp share in the postgame.
  15. Well holy shit, we really are getting a better Battle Facility! It's like... 2/7ths of a Battle Frontier, but that's still way better than the past 3 generations. Also wtf is this Team Gaypride Rocket lol.
  16. Gosh dangit.

    Orange Hitler was right.  He called this back when that one Confederate statue got removed.

  17. I finally get Performing Arts Azura and think I can start saving up orbs again, but nope!  Immediately after Performing arts they'll be having a special Nowi.

     

    (I don't actually like the artstyle but I need it anyway because its Nowi)

      Nowi, the dragon that just wants to play

  18. I mean, Nintendo's little Battle Frontier scandal back in 2014 wouldn't have been such a big deal if the majority of the fans didn't care about the postgame.
  19. I decided that if I tried to recreate my epic Sylveon manifesto from the last thread, it wouldn't be as good and would just feel like a hollow imitation. My waifu former second favorite Pokemon doesn't deserve a hollow imitation. Not to mention that everyone else just isn't writing epic essays about their Pokemon anymore (I miss that), and are instead giving short lists of pros and cons. So I'll do that. ...Okay, maybe not "short", but still. Overall ranking? High A for sure, possibly even S. When I made my little manifesto in the first thread, I didn't consider her S material because of the whole level 45 thing and her lack of speed, plus the fact that there were only two Pokemon given the S rank at the time. Now that the S tier is more... "inclusive", I dunno. She might be a contender.
  20. Not necessarily. I can't find the old viability rankings thread, so my Sylveon magnum opus was probably lost forever to the site update, but in it I determined Sylveon would be A rank despite lack of coverage options. Maybe I should recreate it for this new thread...
  21. So all the signs point to the Battle Tree being a literal copy/paste from last time, huh. I'll believe what they said about a "super expansive postgame" when I see it.
  22. Sega did a Chris Chan reference on their show.  Now Hasbro did it too.  Your move Nintendo.

      I shudder to ask what Hasbro did for the reference......

      Nothing to shudder about, it was just a cameo in the background...

      ...until you watch the rest of the episode and realize it's about a (different) character who exhibiting behavior that is suspiciously similar to Chris' more recent antics...

  23. A hat in time is one of those games that's so good you have to force yourself to stop playing it otherwise you'll finish it all at once and it'll be over too soon

  24. I dunno how to feel about Boy Scouts letting girls in now.  What I do know is that my former Scoutmaster, who is also my best friend's dad, is not happy about it.

      isn't that what the girl scouts are for?

      My question is what's going to happen to the Girl Scouts now?

      K so, there's already female boy scouts, I've known two personally, they're just unofficial members. Don't get me wrong, making them officially allowed is a change, but it's not as radical as people are making it out to be.

       

      Girl scouts are totally different and to many people rather inferior to boy scouts. Boy scouts are about integrity and camping, girl scouts are about crafts and homemaking. The fact that the boy scouts feel there's enough girls willing to join them over girl scouts to make this change at all shows how significant the differences are.

  25. Sun version had the best difficulty of any main series Pokemon game I've ever played (and I played at least one of every generation). And in the sequel you can apparently just spam Z moves and oneshot everything. All because they REALLY wanted to make Z moves seem better than Mega Evolutions. EDIT: now that I think some more about it, Sun and Moon had the best difficulty because I didn't use the exp share. So I guess I could just do the same with this, but like, that doesn't make me feel much better about it. How many more things in future games will I have to ignore in order to make the game playable?
