  1. I'm already seeing people deciding on whether they're going to get Pokemon Sun or Moon. Seriously? The only difference we know about them is the logos.

      I mean, going by logo alone I'd probably choose Moon because it's a crescent moon that has a crescent-moon-shaped negative space, whereas Sun is merely a starburst/stylized explosion.

      But my choice could change between now and then. If the rumors are true and Moon's mascot is a wolf, I'll likely go with Sun.

      Meh I will do the opposite of you, so that between the two of us we have both

      Well, if you look at ALMOST any other main title (Not B2W2, in other words), the colour of the logo matches (inverts, for BW) the colour of the mascot. With that logic, Sun has an orange mascot and Moon has a blue one. I personally like softer (blue-green-grey) colours to harsher (red-orange-yellow) ones, but usually I choose based on which mascots full design I like more, not just colour.

  2. I am morbidly curious how my parents will vote in this election. They've stated during previous elections that they refuse to vote Democrat, especially for Hilary, but I also know they aren't dumb enough to vote for Trump.

      Correction: I know they're not fueled by the hate Trump creates.

  3. Sun and Moon confirmed Gen VII...so, Game Freak is trolling even the data miners?

  4. Now all of the sudden I need a list of moves that Gen I Pokemon can learn in Gen I, but can't learn in Gen III-VI.

  5. New avvie. The black is my username in Gallifreyan. The huge empty space for Matt-Boy and Lulitha was a happy bonus I quickly took advantage of when I first noticed it.

  6. How to make the game know if you're attacking "diagonally"? In Essentials, use "attacker.index+opponent.index==3".

      In my game, I have an attack based on the Levin Sword from FE. If you are attacking diagonally, it's Steel/Electric and deals Special damage. If not, it's pure Steel and deals Physical damage.

      Rot8er_ConeX

      Rock/Ice/Steel, but yes. And Catherine, that triple weakness to Fighting is why I gave Delta Regigigas access to Protect even though there's a valid reason normal Regigigas doesn't get it.

      I don't know how it works, but that's jsut the move I thin of when physical, thator Frustration lol.

      Also Aerial Ace wouldn't work... it doesn't have an Acc check therefore it wouldn't be effected by hustle.

      ((and it does make it more powerful, I jsut mean since it literally can;t miss... it can't effect it's accuracy lol.))

  8. Things that I and a friend have noted: - her arms can actually detach at the shoulders, and float slightly above her "collarbone". - the two "beetle wings" above her head can come together and complete the Pokeball shape that her dress forms. Perhaps she can fold herself into a Pokeball with her head and torso inside it? If so, clearly she doesn't suffer vertigo by having her head upside-down for long periods of time. - She is actually roughly the same size as Volcanion is in the Pokedex, if you don't account for the giant arm things and only measure from the ground to the tip of his triangular steam-storage organ thing. - It's hard to tell from the picture, but the triangular portion that is "cut out" from the Pokeball dress (and that is filled in by her "beetle wings") actually is a very similar angle as the tip of Volcanion's steam organ. Plus the fact that the bottom half of her Pokeball dress appears to be able to be opened farther, as if whoever created her wasn't 100% certain they got the angle right and didn't want to hurt Volcanion by having her kneel on his organ. That's right - Magearna kneels on Volcanion's steam-organ, he wraps his arms around her Pokeball dress, plugs them into the slots left behind when she detaches her shoulders, and suddenly the two are parts of a single whole. There's nothing to suggest this yet, but I'm willing to bet that the center of her Pokeball dress can open up to allow the pair to eject a single, powerful burst of steam.
  9. Considering making Mega Stones have some effect on breeding, but not sure what it should be.

      Make them pass the mega ability to all the evolutonary line as a special ability? But it would be akward to give some pokemons even more abilitites :/

    3. Rot8er_ConeX

      Rot8er_ConeX

      I actually have the framework in my game to give Pokemon an ability that the dexdata says they shouldn't have. Currently used to make sure that certain trainers' Pokemon don't lose their gimmick when you fight them in Randomizer, but the code could easily be repurposed to make babies get the Mega ability. But still, that'd be a little OP in some cases. Shadow Tag Gastly?

    4. Rot8er_ConeX

      Rot8er_ConeX

      I KNOW!

      I'll make it so that if a Pokemon in the Day Care is holding their Mega Stone, they pass their EVs onto the baby.

  10. Finally got around to removing the christmas version of my avatar. No more Xerneas antlers

  11. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1t4yutL7m8QYrmMSROLdCpd4xL0t7sPzll5OrkAfweiM/edit?usp=docslist_api All abilities I have coded so far. Can edit the bottom rows to suggest new abilities.

      Paper Pokemon is designed so that SE moves will remove 2 substitutes, double-weak will remove 4, etc. It's not as OP as it sounds.

      Also, I have increased hail and sandstorm abilities. Eternal Glacier and Diamond Stream.

    3. Rot8er_ConeX

      Rot8er_ConeX

      And, yes Solar Force stacks, just like Sand Force stacks with sandstorm's boost (to Rock type moves, I think?)

    4. pyrromanis

      pyrromanis

      I thought Eternal Glacier and Diamond Stream were abilities that give the effect if the weather was active, like Snow Cloak etc.

      If Paper Pokemon works like this it's fine then.

      Sandstorm doesn't boost the power of rock moves, it on;y gives a sp.def boost to roct type mons. So there is no stacking in Sandstrom and Sand Force (I find Solar Force fine even if it stacks)

  12. Just coded the ability Momentum. The Pokemon's Speed increases by (move priority)/2, rounded down but never less than one, when it uses a priority move. Now, who should I give it to?

      Etesian

      Here's hoping no Prtect-spamming stall trash gets that ability.

      But for could get it, Golurk and Gallade would really appreciate that. It would also be more useful abilities for Bisharp and Keldeo. Toxicroak and Crawdaunt could also do something with that, water immunity is a niche thing, while crawdaunt would lose Adaptability, but gain actual speed and still be able to Swords Dance.

    3. Rot8er_ConeX

      Rot8er_ConeX

      Pursuit now triggers the ability if used against a switching target, granting the user +3 Speed. Pursuit has its own code.

    4. Rot8er_ConeX

      Rot8er_ConeX

      Also, Etesian, Protect doesn't trigger the ability because the priority move must damage the foe in order to set this ability off. I had it that way because I wanted to be sure that the move succeeded before triggering the ability, and then upon looking at the non-damaging moves that have priority, I decided that giving those moves Speed increases would be too OP.

  13. My thoughts exactly. As can be seen by the avvie to your left, my two favorite Pokemon are Mega Gallade and Glaceon, both shiny. I don't actually know why I like Glaceon - I just know that it was my favorite the instant I ran into one when grinding in X's Battle Chateau and it being the only Pokemon to ever make me feel sorry for "killing" it to progress. My running theory is that it's cute in a way that is neither cat-like nor dog-like but rather something in between, so it reminds me of my family's pets, while it also being my favorite color. Megallade, on the other hand, I know exactly why it's my favorite. It's a bad-ass looking superhero Pokemon (somehow, that split cape just works - I'm actually surprised there's not an animation of him grabbing the corners of the cape and then gliding towards the enemy), and its Shiny is orange and blue. When I was a kid, my imaginary superhero alter ego had orange and blue as his colors, with white accents. Every shiny male Ralts I get is automatically nicknamed Matt-Boy, because that's exactly what he becomes.

  15. I kinda want to make a move now that's based on Egg Groups. I don't know how it would work, though.

      Changing the egg move of the affected pokemon, hitting for X damage a pokemon of X egg move?

    3. Marcello

      Marcello

      Attracts and damages pokemon in the same egg group! Although that has potentially dark connotations...

    4. Nova

      Nova

      Egg Bomb doing damage with a type based on the user's Egg Group?

  16. Taking suggestions for possible abilities. If I can code it, and it's not too OP, I'l consider adding it. Some may be exRandomizer exclusive, though.

      "Determination"/

      "True Grit"

      Effect:

      Boosts the user's Attack and Special Attack by 50% when it's HP is at or below half of it's maximum.

      ((Yes, this is basically a polar opposite of what Defeatist does. Best given to a mon that deserves a little something to make it a bit more viable)).

      "Final Curse"

      Curses the opponent that lands the KO on the user. (Curse is the Curse damage effect as used by Ghost-types)

      Learned by most ghost types. Optionally, for additional shenanigans, have the ability give the opponent the non-ghost Curse effect if the user is not a Ghost-type (due to Skill Swap or type changes).

      "Momentum"

      Increases the Speed of the user when it uses a +priority move.

      "Last Bastion"

      Increases the user...

    4. Nova

      Nova

      's Attack, Special Attack and Speed by one stage when it is sent out while it is the last Pokemon on the player's team. It's an ability from Conquest :)

  17. Looking for ideas for names of abilities that act like Flash Fire, except for other types. Specifically, GROUND, FLYING, ROCK, FAIRY, and DRAGON types.

      It's an immunity and a boost to moves of the same type.

    3. Maelstrom

      Maelstrom

      Flying- thermal updraft, ground- mineral deposit, rock- stalagmight, dragon- elder scale, Fairy- Fay funnel

    4. Maelstrom

      Or flying - gale glider,

  18. I'd imagine that Ame doesn't update to the next version of Essentials when new ones come out, because she doesn't want to recode the entire game. So, I'm curious, what version of Essentials does Reborn run on?

    1. Azeria

      Azeria

      IIRC Reborn isn't updating to 16+ anymore. It's on a modified V15.

    2. Arkhi

      Arkhi

      Actually, we've been updating almost consistently up to v15. That's why it's taken so long to release episodes.

  19. I coded an ability that makes the Pokemon immune to damaging moves while they're frozen. Any good ideas on who to give it to, or should I leave that as a "Extreme Randomizer only" ability?

      Oh, maybe Pokemon that might hibernate, too, like Ursaring.

    3. pyrromanis

      pyrromanis

      Maybe fossil pokemon or pokemon that live in snowy areas? Maybe some water types? Dunno, the only possible pokemon that comes to my mind is Empoleon :/

    4. Rot8er_ConeX

      Rot8er_ConeX

      Gave it to the Ursaring and Empoleon lines. Might give it to some Fossils.

  20. I think you can tell which one I'd vote for...
  21. Do any Pokemon other than Mewtwo have canonically defined birthdays? Also, I guess it's fitting that I picked up my GameStop Mew today.
  22. That feeling when you try to sign "F-R-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" and instead your fingers go "F-RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR"

  23. It's clear I'm in the minority here. My first Pokemon game was....(drumroll please)... Pokemon X. I've been a fan of the series since almost as soon as it came out in America. I remember getting a Pikachu plushie after a surgery in second grade, and a GIANT Charmander pillow thing before a different surgery in fourth grade. I also had slippers that fit the series, and remember (unsuccessfully) trying to collect Pokemon cards without my parents knowing. The thing was, while my mother agreed that (at least the unevolved) Pokemon were cute and therefore let me get the plushies and slippers and things, back when it was at its peak my family was uber-Christian and Pokemon was "just like dog-fighting". for Christmas my fourth grade year, my grandmother sent our family a copy of the (then) four books in the Harry Potter series. My family had been avoiding the series because, since it had magic, it was obviously spawn of Satan. I'm not entirely sure why, but my mother decided she was going to read the books before giving them away. I can credit that Christmas as when things changed, but not enough. Despite the magic in the story, it was actually well-written, and, if one looked for it, had good things it could teach kids. After this, the parental units were a lot more lenient with what we could and couldn't play. But it was also around this time that Pokemon stopped being "cool" to like, so I couldn't start playing.around then. I didn't try to start playing the games until June 2014, though.
