I believe that Mega Evolutions will continue to exist, but we'll only get like four or five, instead of 20+ per game

I am doing an XY Nuzlocke and ran into a Pikachu as my second pokemon. I thought 'sweet, I never really used Raichu' Then I caught it and its Rash and holding a Light Ball, so now I have a ridiculous glass cannon that can kill everything in one thundershock. well thats my Nuzlocke story.

BearDrivingTruck posted:Seriously though, are we assuming that the starter evos are real because of the leaks, or has Gamefreak actually shown that they are?  This newest trailer is the first time her design has been in anything official and she's not in any other leak. The fact that she's in the design document with the exact same design as her official art down to the hair and flower being spot on means these are probably (read 99.999999999999999999% ) real. Especially considering this leak was put out a month or two ago. ZenMasterBullshit fucked around with this message at 01:00 on Aug 3, 2016 |

Mallow is kawaii. I hope that's Ash's Nyandre heating up the tea. The best episodes of the series were the ones focusing on his Chimchar>Monferno>Infernape overcoming abandonment through love and friendship and then wrecking absolutely everyone with Blaze-powered shounen righteousness. I'd like to see something as cool as that with Nyandre.

I just realized, Rowlet is the first dual type starter first form since Bulbasaur, isn't it? I'm surprised they did that, considering it messes with a newbie's understanding of the type triangle.

Carlosologist posted:I believe that Mega Evolutions will continue to exist, but we'll only get like four or five, instead of 20+ per game They still haven't explained what Ash Greninja is supposed to be. Plus that leak mentioned that it makes an appearance somewhere in the game. It would be kind of a dick move on the anime's part to include something like that but not include it in the games. People are still reeling over things like Pink Butterfree, Crystal Onix and the GS ball. I'm pretty sure all the previous Megas are programmed in the game as well as their respective mega stones. However, I wouldn't be surprised if they're like the gems in the Gen VI games: programmed in, but unavailable, save for a couple. Or maybe they won't be available until you've beaten the main campaign... Whatever it's supposed to be.

I figured out why there wasn't a Z version: Zygarde can't have the Power Construct ability, only Alola Zygarde can.

Personally I think it's fine, and good, that the anime gets some exclusives and isn't completely limited by the mechanics of the game.

I want that thing nowhere near the console games unless it's some kind of event greninja, and even then I dislike it. I don't want it as some kind of new mechanic, but if they go notch-eared-Pichu on it that might be okay.

my pick for tiers to main if you want to do competitive online play / singles play: ORAS OU: not my favorite, but definitely the best if you want lots of opportunities to show that you are good. major tournament representation year round (substitute ORAS w/ "current gen") and the most active ladder online. i think its in 5 tours during the year DPP OU: wealth of information online, great balance in the gen (tho infernape and breloom are kinda blegh, and not fun to play vs) and represented in 4 major tournaments. most of the "best players of all time" mained DPP as the current gen, many are still around and the meta is still evolving ADV OU: widely considered the "most balanced" or "most competitive" generation, you hit a really solid balance between ability to be creative with your builds but not such a wide swathe of options that you will get 6-0d by something just bc you couldnt handle it in teambuilder. whats really cool is that many mons "soft check" certain threats, so long as you dont build a completely unbalanced team you will do well here. represented in 3 major tournaments during the year, but 2 of those (same w/ dpp btw) are reserved for ostensibly the 10 best active players and the 10 in ADV are some leagues ahead of the vast majority of new players. i was a finalist in ADV cup this year and its probs my favorite gen, also the one i played first online ORAS UU: most likely the best of the "lower tiers", it has a really active community and is the tier that gives rise to high lvl competitive players more than any other current gen sans ORAS OU. the tier is moderately well balanced but for much of the ORAS lifespan it was the best of all the tiers in terms of options and broken threats. represented in 2 majors (1 where u need to be drafted), you wont get a huge chance to show off in ORAS UU, but the unofficial scene is bigger now than ever

doubles players are typically worse than singles players, i have found. im more interested in higher level competition, but also understand that many folks enjoy using two mons at one time, and the strategies that can arise
