The Arceus distribution says "With a special flute, Arceus could be encountered in the Hall of Origin in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl." Why are Nintendo allowed to spread these lies?

it's no lie, you could do it, with an action replay.

Pretty sure GF still has no clue what they are doing in some aspects of the game. Like movepools that doesn't match the ability- poor flareon. I wish they would just revamp movepools . Don't even care if they don't change the stats bc now we know they are doing megas/alolan/whatever. I would totally use Carbink (edit: carbink was a bad example) if it's movepool had more to it. Like Kingler- it has sheer force but no waterfall, or much else that would support it better.

kingler has crabhammer

Nah, Kamen Rider Digimon was pretty rad, actually. Except near the end of the series where only 2 of the 6 kids could help in battle at all, but that's a problem the show shares with Adventure and 02.

Nah man it was bad, like the base idea is okay but even in the fist few episodes when the other kids got their digimon transformations it still ended up with one of the two main characters actually saving the day. Adventure and 02 may have made some more important than others but at least when one of the lesser digimon got a new form they actually got to be the hero.

Ok so type: null has me interested in the connection it has with Sinnoh so i'm gonna drop a bunch of dumb predictions Maybe giratina isgoing/has gone wild and since nintendo won't release the azure flute nobody can summon arceus to stop him so scientists decide to make their own arceus by liike combining all the pokemon DNA and after getting a few mew and ditto they Create Type: Null sadly not an Arceus Also there's A Zstone for every type And a plate for every type So i think they'll be related and maybe used to power up Type: Null. And maybe when Arceus Holds A Zstone it makes judgement into a badass typed Zmove

Also i think we'll be Getting Zmoves for Roar of Time and Spacial Rend maybe refined from the Lustrous and Adamant Orbs

And i think the littlest edgelord stole his Type:Null from the lab after reading silver's book Professors always leave the windows open or how i got a chikorita and you can tooI

Rather than actually being her it could be a psuedo pokemon creature that was created by the Aether foundation performing bad science, with her as the test subject. So the ultra beasts aren't actually people but weird monsters created as reflections of people they performed experiments on.

Its probably all Lusamine's fault for being a bad mom.

well Lusamine said she wanted to protect the pokemon of other worlds too so maybe they broke open to another dimension and the ultra beasts came through and are mimicking things and that one is mimicking the little girl.

Geodude comes from geode + dude, so it's actually a pretty clever name. But yeah, Golem is probably the laziest/most unimaginative name from gen I, along with Seel and Persian. Electrode and Gloom are different from those because they can at least double as electric + explode and glume + bloom, respectively.

Yeah that really wasn't a good move, preventing people from using any of the old Pokemon in case they didn't like any of the new ones. Especially with incredibly divisive designs such as the Klink, Trubbish, and Vanillite lines.

Also I've never understood this argument. Simple design =/= bad design. They are pretty much pokeballs with eyes which makes no sense in like, lore. Like what are the odds? But in terms of just design they're pretty unique and interesting I think.

This is opposed to say, a key ring which is about as unique and interesting as a key ring.

except gen 1 had a poo poo ton of pokemon that were pretty much ball pokemon.

Klefki is a trickster spirit that steals keys which is the exact thing that would have been blamed on a fairy in olden days and it's adorable.
