The Pokemon Thread.

On a somewhat unrelated note, Pokken Tournament has had more information announced. On one hand it annoys me a little that Pikachu's in it, but then, it's Pikachu we're talking about... I really shouldn't be surprised. Yay Gardevoir (but then, I'm biased). Any thoughts on some of the new information that's came out on it?

Pretty much agreed with Pikachu. I know it's the mascot and it's popular, but I'm getting pretty sick of it. Gardevoir is pretty much expected considering its "popularity", but I didn't see Suicune coming. Also, where's Blaziken?

EDIT: Oh yeah, here's an useful spreadsheet if you want to SR for Legendary Pokemon.

Also, where's Blaziken?

Considering it was shown alongside Lucario in that teaser picture a long time ago, its safe to say Blaziken will be playable, they just haven't officially announced it yet.

As a player who does primarily doubles... ugh. But at least Inverse Battles are offered as an option. Agreed on the last, though. I wonder if it's simply Game Freak's way of saying they're no longer using Looker as a character in the games anymore? Maybe he wasn't popular in Japan?

Actually, I guess it's to keep the battle length down; the unprepared will be getting hammered regardless.  I still want 6 vs. 6 AI doubles though.

In the case of Looker, I guess it's a "Han Solo frozen in carbon" thing, putting him aside until he's ready for more development.  This is going to make the wait for the next game extra painful.  I didn't get his Audinite- it was too painful to watch the scene.



In other news, I'm bored and desperate enough to try the Battle Maison again with its stupid long streaks.  I've begun breeding anything and everything that will give me a leg up - in shiny form, of course.

I don't know why, but I suddenly had this dream a couple of nights ago and it went like this:

Well, here's an interesting Pokkén Tournament picture.



HELL YES, Hawlucha!!!!! I'm perfectly content with this already.

Of course it'd be interesting; the Pikachu revolution has only begun. Soon you simpletons will pay tribute to our superior kind.

Introducing Nendoroid Cynthia and her Garchomp...

The Pokemans take a nice moment to take in their new forms. :3

Poor Shuckle.


I'm not doing anything in particular, just soft resetting for legendaries, occasionally taking time off to mess around with the mirage islands.  Not exactly gripping material.

Speaking of Pokemon and iM@S. Such a lovely cover. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYlb5li26dM

I've been taking a break from the pokemon series after X and Y, been more interested in it's Japanese competitor Yo-kai Watch lately, mostly for the anime and catchy music.

Here's some images of Chihaya with Pokemon.





I thought of that when seeing that costume too.

Also the idols cosplaying as pokemon trainers.

Somehow, I managed to find a group in the city I live. Then, I've been playing with them with different teams. Now, I created a dark team with: Mightyena, Umbreon, Honchkrow, Weavile, Houndoom and, my main, Absol. I know, we have internet and we can play worldwide, but... meeting is even more fun. xD
And I just decided to play the Dragon Competition (Using Latias, Mightyena, Weavile and Absol).

Here's some images of Chihaya with Pokemon.
