  1. Woah there Lukas, two resistance level-ups back to back? Calm down man.

  2. Leaked alternate dialogue for Mae and Boey's A support in Echoes: 

     

     

  3. The FE:SoV ending credits song, The Heritors of Arcadia, is really freaking catchy and bittersweet. 

  4. Z-Psyshock is definitely one of my favorite Z moves, alongside similar moves like Secret Sword and Psystrike. It lets you obliterate all manners of walls by hitting them on the physical and the special side with only one coverage move.

      Niice, i gotta try that^^ Psystrike is also my favourite move, along with anchor shot

      I'me more of a z-belly drum kinda guy myself

  5. So I was entering in some codes for Pokemon TCG Online to grab some Guardians Rising packs (from some b-day presents this year) and I ended up drawing 5 GXes in a row (as in 1 from each of five consecutive packs), two of which were Secret Rares, Tapu Lele and Alolan Ninetails. I really don't know what I did to deserve such a surge of luck.

      I don't know what that means but that's great!!!!!!!

      very well done. i am interested in the Alolan Ninetailes. would you like to trade?

  6. Mega Houndoom is officially released in Sun and Moon! You can obtain the Houndoomite, along with Heracronite, Steelixite, and Pidgeotite, by simply entering in the code AZUL

    Mega Houndoom won't be usable in online battles until Tuesday, May 16th tho. 

    Serebii does not know when the event will end, but, hey, free mega stones are free mega stones.

      mega houndoom is back? SWEET ARCEUS HAS MERCY UPON DARK TYPE MONO TEAMS!

      Many will still probably use Mega Sabelye just because it's such a good Pokemon, but it is great to have Cerberus back. 

       

      Oh, also I guess this was Mega Hera's release as well. I thought it had been distributed before, but I guess not.

  7. Man, I freaking love Psychic-types.

      Idk. they're weak to spiders....

      I can't really fault them for that since I am too.

      Lol, Psychic types burn spiders xD

  8. I am slowly falling in love with Meloetta-Pirouette. It is a really fun Pokemon to use and heavily underrated. 

    1. Ojama Yellow

      Ojama Yellow

      I prefer aria meloetta but pirouette is basically discount mega lopunny yeah

    2. AuthorReborn

      AuthorReborn

      I really enjoy Aria too, but I do feel like Pirouette is somewhat better than Mega Lop in one particular way (and noticeably worse in others). The main perk of Pirouette over Mega Lop is its ability to lure in Special walls and obliterate them, making it a really good partner for special sweepers. 

    3. Wolfox

      Wolfox

      It depends on where you use it. Melloetta  -P can be great, but not in monotype. Mainly mono spychic has little use for it, since you're gonna wanna use Melo as a ghost imunity, and what cna melo-P not do? touch ghost types

  9. The Mega Stones for the Hoenn Starters are on the way in SuMo! Get ready to see a billion Pelipper+Koko+MegaPert Rain teams!

  10. Man, AV Meloetta-P is hilarious to use in OU. 

  11. What exactly is the origin of the running joke of adding a year to the dev time every time someone asks when the next episode will be out? 

    1. seki108

      seki108

      Didn't that start as a Half Life 3 joke?

    2. Combat

      Combat

      I think it was always been a kind of a joke for projects that will come or, like Half Life 3. Its kind of like a parent saying do you want me to turn this car around if a kid keeps saying "Are we there yet?" An empty threat that's meant to be taken as a joke by the community. (Hopefully.) 

  12. Well, goodbye Pheromosa. I think you'll still have a role in ubers, although Genesect will probably outclass you in most ways. Still, the Fighting STAB is nice.

      How hard does Physical Phero Jab hit Xerneas for? Like one of the biggest reasons Pheromosa is powerful like Genosect is you MUST discover it's set before you can switch into it period.

    3. AuthorReborn

      AuthorReborn

      I didn't say that you should switch your Xern in on the thing, I'm simply stating that it can set-up on Phero and handle it, a task which would be ill advised for say, Genesect.

       

      For reference, 252+ Atk Choice Band Pheromosa Poison Jab vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Xerneas: 312-368 (79.3 - 93.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

      Completely uninvested Xern (something that is highly unlikely to see) lives Banded Adamant 252 Phero's Poison Jab unless Xern is poisoned and even then Xern will survive if it was a low roll. Obviously don't switch Xerneas in on Pheromosa, as there are incredibly few Pokemon in existence who can safely do that, but Xerneas is a Pokemon that should always be brought in safely anyways so it can survive the turn it needs to set up a Geomancy. 

       

      I will admit, however, that Poison Jab Pheromasa slipped my mind when I wrote my previous post. Your point on scouting out the set before safely switching is still a valid one, but I do feel that it will still be outclassed in Ubers as the vast majority of teams run some form of priority to handle dangerous Pokemon that have already set up or would be normally impossible to outspeed, like Deoxys-S, for instance.

      Oh ye, I was mostly asking that out of curiousity XD. Pheromosa has really really silly coverage moves. ((and does crazy weird things like run Fightnuim-Z etc etc cause it doesn't need scarf...))

      I can understand the skeptism though, the issue with Phero is it's so weighted on the offensive side that it's a super high risk reward pokemon so it's really hard to judge it on paper since so much of it's power is the mind games you can play with it. ((similar to Genosect really.))

  13. Welp, hope I didn't screw that up.

  14. What's it called when you don't completely trust the narrator in Hamiltin? An Unrelia-Burr Narrator

    1. DogHistorian

      HEck YES !! 

  15. Why does Showdown even include the option to check the Unrated Random Battles ladder?

      no clue but if you click it it says no players have play ranked i think its just how the website is designed

    3. AuthorReborn

      AuthorReborn

      all I'm trying to say is it's a silly thing to have the option to check a rating that doesn't exist. 

    4. bobthebobby

      bobthebobby

      yeah it is lol

  16. Man, I just love Roserade in draft leagues. It's so nice being able to have a different 90 BP coverage move of your choosing every battle. It's an excellent Steel-type lure. 

  17. The Other Meta of the Month, Full Potential, is completely insane. I encourage you all to try it before the end of the month. 

  18. Sigh, I wish Bulletproof blocked things like Fire Blast, Ice Beam, and Flash Cannon.

      Eh, it's not so much localization problems as it is just general inconsistencies. Flash Cannon in Japanese is Luster Cannon, so the problem remains. 

    3. AuthorReborn

      AuthorReborn

      Although I do agree Beak Blast is a better name in general.

      The difference in cannons might be one is firing a solid projectile while the other fires just energy.

  19. While I do appreciate the buffs to older Pokemon that arrived with Sun and Moon, it does somewhat stretch the limit of which Pokemon can be salvaged by slapping Quiver Dance on there. 

    1. IntSys

      IntSys

      Heh, Quiver Dance Wormadam.

  20. not going to lie, Specs Swellow is a lot of fun to use this generation. 

  21. I'm making teams for a draft league that I signed up for, but I am rather unconfident in my own skills as a teambuilder. Would anyone be interested in critiquing some of the teams I design? I would rather not do an RMT on it because it opens up the potential for my opponent to see the team in advance due to public access. If you are interested, just shoot me a PM. If not, no sweat, you do you. 

     

  22. Time to raise up a new Lissa to give her Renewal to Femui. I swear, this Heroes update is bonkers. 

  23. Fun fact, with the removal of HMs in SuMo, Cut is now Kartana's signature move. That's right, the infamously awful Cut can now be exclusively learned by an Ultra Beast with 181 base attack.

      @Swampellow it is still the only Pokemon capable of learning the move in Sun and Moon, making it a signature move. 

    4. Swampellow

      True enough.

    Ah, the joy that is Google trying to translate Japanese websites. 

     

    That's the Offical Nintendo Thracia 776 website, in case you're wondering. 

  25. Playing through Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 is taking some time to get going. Not because the early chapters are particularly hard or because the version I am playing is entirely in Japanese, or even the plethora of unique features Thracia 776 employs, like Fatigue or Capturing. All of these things I steadily adjusted too. The main hurdle for me is editing the Fire Emblem Wiki to actually have the data found elsewhere on the internet because the FE5 section on the wiki is extraordinarily underdeveloped and unembellished. I can't just move on with the game until I am finished editing the wiki to have actually helpful information on the chapters. As such, I just beat Chapter 3. Whew.
