My original fanfic do not steal wish is that if they do make Crazy Diamond and Pearl Jam, apart from basing it off of Star Platinum, they give the Sinnoh starters Megas instead of exclusive Z-Moves and specifically Infernape gets a li'l cloud and staff in his Mega and gets Levitate as his ability. Oh, and let him learn Aura Sphere.

And usually these competitions last like a week, right? At least the mythical Pokémon giveaways are almost a month long.

Kite Pride Worldwide posted:It'd be a fantastic move on a better attacker (Fire-type Crunch w/ 100% defense drop? That's a crazy wall-busting move) but unfortunately physical Fire-types are few and far between, and it's such a specifically designed move that they'll never give it to anything else because ~flavor~ They'll give Fire Lash to Incineroar in Pokémon Stars

Don't be dramatic, they can't tell the difference between a hacked Mega Stone an a legit one so nobody will be banned for having a hacked one after legit ones are given out at the competition.

Imagine if they changed it so you had to place over a certain ranking to win the prize. Hopefully it's just the usual play three games.

I dunno, there's so much cool stuff in Gen VII which is nigh unusable outside of a Trick Room team due to poor speed. (Or more likely, poor speed and insufficient bulk to tank hits. Looking at you, Komala.) Speaking of, how's Drampa as a special wall? No 4x weaknesses, potentially immune to Grass-types, and it gets Roost. Seems like you could combine it with Calm Mind to make it absurdly strong. Only trouble is, I'm not sure what the best coverage moves are for attacks.

Sadly Drampa's utility begins and ends at Hyper Voice spam in Doubles, at least until Showdown's tiers coagulate a bit more.

If I want to play the older games before getting to Sun/Moon, but still want to get all the limited release stuff I've been reading, do I have to be at a certain point in Sun/Moon to do that? I'd like to save Sun/Moon till the end but don't want to miss out on certain items while I'm doing that.

People can always trade you stuff you're missing, it's not a big deal, there's nothing too amazing you'll miss. Just play older games and be annoyed about actual event related stuff you can never get again, like every single Gen 3 island ticket. I personally won't even bother entering the Mega stone competitions, I'll just hack them in when they become available.

It's not clear that developing a third version is as expensive as developing the first pair. If it's much cheaper, it could be economical even if it sells many fewer copies. I would think it has as much to do with the release timetable they decide to follow.

TheKingofSprings posted:From 8.5 million a version to 7.5 million a version? This again assumes that producing just one version is half as expensive as producing both, which is definitely not true since they're identical technology wise and almost identical in terms of assets and behaviour. The main cost added by side-by-side development of the second game is going to be in additional testing, but it's not going to be anywhere near double.

I'd be glad for no more third versions, rather just put those improvements into the first game to start with or save them for the next.
