BigglesSWE posted:Waaaaaaiiiiiit a minute. Since gen 5 there have been some items that respawn every so often. Beaches tend to have Heart Scales and Pearls that respawn, in some games there's a spot where a Prism Scale will occasionally respawn, etc. I think it's based on real time rather than time spent playing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsT1cSjGKls Gamefreak is going to start a series on their graphics designers January 11th. This video probably just breathed new life into speculation over a January 10 Nintendo Direct.

I follow him on Twitter and he seems to be a really nice and passionate guy, so that he gets acknowledgement from Game Freak is really good.

James Turner gave us Golurk, the best Pokemon in the game. He should forever be praised.

Instead of the usual animation, it combines with the ancient expansion pack hidden away for the day it gained the Spiral Power to handle it. Just like a proper super-robot. That is if Gamefreak decides to get back to making Megas instead of abandoning it and Z-moves for shinier gimmick.

I think I remember reading, back when X and Y was released, that they deliberately chose not to give any of the new pokemon Mega Evolutions (besides Diancie) because they were already new, and Mega Evolutions were meant to give old Pokemon something new. It wouldn't surprise me if they going to add Gen 6 Mega Evolutions in Z, but that never happened. I always thought Ash-Greninja and Zygarde's forms were all leftovers from ideas tossed around for Z before they decided they'd rather do Sun and Moon.

Also Zygarde was the primary focus of an entire season of the anime a while before he was revealed to be in Sun and Moon so yeah, that's probably accurate .

I bet that Z version would've had a couple new areas, but none related to the stuff that's half in the game, nor the power plant.

They've stated that Ash Greninja was designed for the anime in mind first, and that they put him into the games as a response to his popularity. I think there's some truth in that given he looks like, you know Ash.

Somewhat related, was Zygarde's base form (the little green thing that the group called "Squishy") actually in Sun/Moon or was that anime exclusive?

Zygarde's Cores are in Sun and Moon, but not that specific version of it. All the ones that are used have Squishy's design though, you never see a blue one or anything.

So what is the explanation for Zygarde's formes? Squishy->dog->snake->uh...power ranger monster? Seems kinda random.

Electric Phantasm posted:So what is the explanation for Zygarde's formes? Squishy->dog->snake->uh...power ranger monster? Seems kinda random. According to Bulbapedia (and thus most likely full of poo poo), "Zygarde's 10%, 50%, and Complete Formes may be inspired in part by the three children of Loki and Angrbođa: Fenrir, Jörmungandr, and Hel." There's more info about it on Zygarde's Bulbapedia page but I find it hard to believe.

I have like 35 perfect IV correct natured mons with some hilarious egg moves. Should I hold off on transferring these murderers to my new game until I get to the end game? Also, IS there still a deep endgame? I can't imagine it went away, but I'm slightly scared having looked at my previous foray into the series.

I took a break from Let’s Go at the SS Anne to play Smash, but now I’m back, and my friend traded me a shiny Charmander and a shiny Squirtle he had left over from Go. Pretty excited to have a black Charizard I raised myself. Living my best Gen 1 life.

Man, I get why they made chains break when you turn off the game, but I wish they'd implemented something like Majora's Mask did where you could only load the save once if done that way and it kept your chain.

Pokeedit and pkhex brings back memories. Used to love editing mons back in ds lite days. My buddies n I would whip up so many teams for our battles. We even determined who got what rooms when we lived together via a tournament. Haha. I also remember there was a site that let people post their pokemans online to download and send into the game. I think it used the global communications functions too and when Nintendo killed those old servers it went away. This was before x/y iirc.
