Why can neither of them defeat a child with a giant cicada named Jon Cicada who also rides around on a catfish? This is some mature, dark storytelling. Tabitha is named Tabitha because it's like his Japanese name, Homura, in that it's a feminine name, and also it's an anagram of "habitat", a which relates to Magma's goals of spreading land mass. Courtney is just weird and not in touch with her emotions or how to properly express them.

Never thought about the habitat thing, but why does the character have a feminine name at all? Just an arbitrary choice?

I can't even begin to guess but it's not really that uncommon. They probably chose Homura in the first place for its relation to fire.

what? I don't understand your reaction. all the Magma admins are named after things relating to areas of land. Courtney is "country", for instance.

The real question is: does Matthew call everyone a bro in the Japanese Alpha Sapphire script?

absolutely anything posted:look at these dudes.... theyre my dudes This art style reminds me of Gurren Lagann eye catches. I honestly thought they wanted the UB universe to invade this ones because it was more beautiful or something, so I guess the stakes were lower than I thought. I would still like another game where legendaries aren't part of the main plot. My favourite part of blue was basically tripping over Articuno and being incredibly pleased with my new murderbird.

Beachcomber posted:I honestly thought they wanted the UB universe to invade this ones because it was more beautiful or something, so I guess the stakes were lower than I thought. I don't think Lusamine gave a poo poo one way or the other about the Ultras invading. All she wanted was to chill out in the beautiful dimension surrounded by the beautiful Ultra Beasts. Anything else was not her problem. And yeah, that was the appeal of the "low stakes" games, in that it was more exploring and finding cool new things, rather than having to save the world and all of known creation before you're even old enough to get your Hogwarts letter. Both are good, it's just a matter of preference.

The trailer should be uploaded at the top of the hour. Probably closer to 5 after knowing how this stuff works.

I can't believe Giovanni put together his own Legion of Doom. Now I just need to know more about the battle agency and this might be the best Pokemon game to release.

Still not crazy of version exclusive legendaries / "you need the legendary from the other game to get this other one" ...why is Regigigas exclusive to Moon rather then requiring the three Regis? Would be nice if they could throw in a few mythical pokemon too, like how they did with Deoxys. Complaints aside I'm still excited for an excuse to play more Pokemon.

I posted this in the trade thread a couple days ago, but does anyone have a HA Heracross they can breed the HA off of for me? I don't really care about any of the other stuff, I can get all that on my own, but I don't have any way to get the HA right now. I can catch something in a masterball for you, catch any of the Tapu's but koko with the nature of your choice(I already have copies of them that I am happy with), or whatever
