  1. So back in the beta (it's okay for me to talk about that since the episode's out now right?), you could have gotten the Pokemon you traded away back by soft resetting, so I was gonna exploit that and send out an army of Sylveons named "Nuke Shooter" that were based on the MVP of my 6th gen monorun. But Ame was smart and made it that the game saves after a trade now, and since she also axed the auto-save backup system I can't just go to a previous save. I could technically still do it, by manually making a save backup... Except I already traded the Sylveon away without realizing until too late. Dangit. Well anyway, I got a level 1 Chespin named "Zen".
  2. Gotta love how Bulbapedia's Alolan Form page is titled "regional variants" as if they seriously think Gamefreak won't throw the entire concept away next game

      ....or it's because that's the proper term for it? Alola Forms only refers to the ones native to Alola >>

      Alomomola is Unovan Luvdisc.

  3. I almost crapped myself when the Rotomdex told me Tauros had an evolution. But no, it's just Miltank. It was silly of me to think they'd ever do that again.

  4. Funny that the guy whose administration re-legalized propaganda back in 2012, and whose party was literally JUST proven to be bribing media outlets, is going on rants about how "fake news" is such a threat to humanity

      Nice tu quoque, doesn't change the fact that MSM is trying to shut down legitimate news sources in a desperate attempt to forcefully regain control of their alienated audiences

  5. Lol Gamexplain get it together, how did you miss 3 Z moves? Still, 11 non-generic super attacks (the majority of which were shown in trailers) is still pretty underwhelming for something that's supposed to herald the end of megas, of which there's like 50
  6. Considering what happened in the DNC it's actually kinda fitting so many people are trying to get the electors to elect Hillary anyway

      If that happens, USA will no longer have the right to call itself a democracy, but an oligarchy.

      USA is a republic tho.

      Republic and democracy are not mutually exclusive. A republic can be either a democracy or an oligarchy.

  7. Apparently there's 26 Z moves, at least According to Gamexplain, which seems like a decent number until you remember that there's one for every type, meaning there are only actually 8 unique Z moves. And at least 6 of them have already been shown in trailers (maybe even more that I'm not remembering). They threw away megas for this?
  8. It seems the Sun/Moon anime might not be as bad as we thought. The artstyle still sucks and the pandering humor is still an insult to how badass the last gen was, but at least they seem to not be giving Ash the BW treatment. Yet.

      Considering it's still a show made for kids, I don't mind the humor. He hasn't been reset to BW levels and it's rather amusing from what I've seen. I'll keep watching for now....

      It'll take while for me to get used to it.

  9. Darn, it looks like the SMBZ reboot's gonna die like the original did. The dude who makes it already struggles with severe depression, and now he's convinced there's a nuclear extinction coming because Trump.

      What is it with american politics and Nuclear extinction anyway?

      We... its a long ass story friend. We spent a good 5 decades being on again and off again paranoid with russia over it... mutually assured destruction and all that scary jazz

  10. Not to be disrespectful or anything, but almost everything you just said is wrong. I understand now what you meant by "still has its uses", and I apologize for originally coming off as standoffish, but as you can see in that link the niche you thought exists actually doesn't.
  11. So since nobody answered my question about Popplio's hidden ability, I did my own research.
  12. All these people talking about cheesing it with Focus Sashes and Quick Claws and such, but no. The answer is Sylveon. My Sylveon is so badass she straight up outpowered the god of the Pokemon world.
  13. Mark your calendars everyone, the first peer-reviewed paper on the "impossible" EmDrive is gonna be published by "AIAA Journal of Propulsion and Power" this December. For those of you who haven't heard, it's an experimental space drive that defies the laws of physics and could make going to the outer planets in our lifetime a real possibility.

      inb4 it tears a hole in reality

  14. Front page of Yahoo is hilarious. "Petition to elect Hillary as president anyway". "The Electoral College was made to stop Trump". "The result of the election should infuriate you". "The stock market's amazing comeback makes no sense". It hasn't been this way since the time Obama tried and failed to push those gun restrictions.

      Modern media is scum, journalism is dead.

      What else is new

      Remember how the left was upset about how Trump didn't say whether or not he would accept the election results? And how it was a threat to democracy? They're the ones rioting over the election results now.

      As someone who does lean left, I am honestly pretty disgusted at how childish, immature, and petty the left is reacting right now.

  15. Okay I would prefer to not be spoiled on anything more than I have to, but is the game actually... good this time? Is it as excruciatingly easy as the last couple games? Is the level design boring and linear like in XY (ORAS doesn't count because it's a remake of an already better game)? Is the story actually anything significant this time or was "it all comes together" really just empty, meaningless PR drivel? Is the postgame just relegated to a Battle Maison clone again (it looks that way from the trailers, regardless if some of the opponents are familiar faces)? If it's actually an improvement (well, enough of an improvement), I want to support it, but it'll be hard to know that without spoiling it/playing it myself, and I know that shortly after release people's opinions seem to be skewed (people thought XY was great after it first dropped), so I'm in a difficult situation here. Also I don't think I need to ask at this point whether or not there's new megas; that's already a major strike against the games. And a quick question about Primarina's hidden ability
  16. It seems Trump has done the impossible: caused Brianna Wu to shut up on Twitter

      Ah dammit nevermind. I think ~8 hours is a record tho

  17. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  18. Omygod this is really happening. I am genuinely looking forward to the avalanche of salt if it really happens

  19. Today I did something I'll regret for the rest of my life... I voted for one of them.

  20. Any last hope for the Sun and Moon anime seems to be squished by the fact that it has titles like "Popplio, do your ballonest"

  21. So apparently on the same day that... THAT happened, Junichi Madsuda tweeted "gone are the days of Pokemon being predictable" or something like that. We'll see about that because so far this generation's ended mostly the same way as every other one.
  22. Correct me if I'm wrong, I didn't look at the datamine but was instead told by someone else, but weren't the sprites for the summary menu, and therefore no in-battle forms were seen, not even Ashninja? If so that means technically any mega is still possible, but increasingly unlikely at this point.
  23. This totally means we're getting metas for Dragonite, Milotic, Volcarona and Haxorus, right? They wouldn't seriously make a big deal of all the past champions returning and leave only half of them with mega signatures, right? Well this is Gamefreak we're talking about here, so... We'll see.
