Indeed. Where once LHC physics researchers could congregate in small circles theorycrafting optimal competitive ability and held item teams, now is left a wasteland for the concrete-pourers of the world to fart and smoke in the streets as they mindlessly catch pokemon with their joycons before going home sexless and alone. Pokemon: Let's Go, the end of an era.

are you okay

i don't think there's alot of people who would only be interested in the new pokemon if it had the very generic big city from the movie

I don't think anyone said that?

you basically were, pitching the idea that the new games would get crossover from movie watchers for the setting and not you know, because of the pokemon

people aren't going to watch the movie and go 'oh i love generic american city', they're going to go 'oh i love pikachu, i love mr mime'

I can't wait for the Fire Starter Chinese Zodiac theory to get completely destroyed.

i don't think foxes or whatever the hell typhlosions are supposed to be are on the chinese zodiac

it's called the chinese zodiac theory because all the animals of the chinese zodiac evolve to become bipedal fighting types

Foxes are canines, therefore Fennekin counts as the dog. This isn't the only franchise to use a fox instead of a dog because it's cooler that way, I can think of another mon franchise that did it.

Cyndaquil is the rat. It's the "Fire Mouse Pokémon".

The zodiac theory is still true no matter how much it may annoy people. We'll get another addition to it, maybe tomorrow, maybe in September, depending on how nice Game Freak feels. Though honestly the only one I wanted was the tiger and we got that one last gen so I'm not too interested, even if it's the type that gives me my name.

i am now on zuzie's side in wanting this dumb thing you made me read get shut down tomorrow

Are these the "leaks" you mean?



I like that grass mole but don't the starters usually include a lizard or a bird?

i like all three of these, which is my ultimate evidence that it's fake

the starters look boring but they'll probably evolve into cool guys

If they give that monkey a stupid HA like Own Tempo I'll be disappointed.

What other sound/music based abilities are there?

they could, y'know, make a new ability for it

Yes, with all that exotic British wildlife.

the coolest alolan forms (raichu, marowak, ninetales) were based off of culture and folklore, not what animals are in hawaii

I’m thinking if Grookey is a musician and Scorbunny is an athlete, maybe Sobble will be an artist? I mean he’s a chameleon, after all.

so did ultra sun/moon end up being much of an upgrade over the original games? this announcement's got me itching to pokemon again and i only played through moon once when it first came out so like, if ultra's not a huge difference i could probably save the 40 bucks and just play that again
