My son just watched an episode where Serena won her third princess key and he got so excited and happy it made me tear up. And then she finds out her next phase of achieving her goal is the exact opposite direction of Ash's last gym badge, Ash puts his hand on her shoulder and says "There's no question, we're going to do your thing".

Man, what a loving great kid. gently caress the haters, I don't care if he doesn't win championships, he's the most solid dude in anime and a great role model. I think my wife and son and I are going to dress as Ash, Serena, and Frogadier for Halloween.

That's so cool. Ash sounds like he's becoming a pretty good dude. I haven't seen too many people hating on Ash for losing the finals. I've seen a lot of hate on Alain for being one hell of a Mary Sue.

What's a good fire Pokemon to have in Alpha Sapphire and why are fire Pokemon always so rare to find in these games
Alternatively would someone trade me a good and cool fire Pokemon? I hear good things about Numel/Camerupt but Fire Ground woof

Camerupt is great. It gets a lot of great moves through level up, TMs, and DexNav (I used one with Earth Power). Don't worry too much about a 4x weakness. If you're not one to leave a Pokemon in against something it's weak to then it doesn't really matter.

I recently did a playthrough of Crystal trying to use Johto Pokes but there was one girl I couldn't resist:

Typhlosion (M)
Golem (F)
Jumpluff (M)
Slowking (M)
Heracross (M)
Crobat (M)

E: I just opened the game to check the gender and got called for a rematch by Hiker Anthony. I remember the first time he upgraded his team his Machop went up to Machamp but now he has a Machoke in its place. I think a found a script error.

Sneasel is actually an awful Gen II Pokemon. It's a pretty good Gen IV Pokemon though.

I remember getting phanpy at the very beginning of the game by setting my game timer to morning and crawling through the grass at the little patch you can access that leads back to the eight gym city I can't remember the name of.

Those Phanpy are a pain. They're incredibly rare, have a real bad catch rate, and will run if they break outta your ball.

The writers clearly had a plan but made a complete hash of executing it in a way that doesn't the audience throwing chairs into the ring.

Alain basically went from "Side story protagonist with Charizard, Mega Evolution and Team Flare" to "X-Pac: Avatar of the writers."

Yeah, I haven't kept up with the show other than seeing the league final because of hype but this is along the lines of what I've been hearing. Apparently the Team Flare conflict is supposed to be the resolution to all this rather than the Pokemon League which is kinda weird since the league is usually the last big thing that wraps up the main story.

OHKO moves like Fissure and Horn Drill were 100% based around speed and Blastoise was a slow fucker

Fissure Blastoise is a legit speedrun strategy. In Gen I X-Accuracy ignores all accuracy checks so you just oneshot everything on the ground and Blizzard any flying foes. Also Blizzard has 90 accuracy in Gen I so swap Ice Beam out for that if you need more power.

i actually like the further evolutions such as electivire and magmortar, but something about rhyperior seems weird. maybe because rhydon was one of giovanni's 'things' in the early games and it feels odd for there to just magically be a further evolution.

Did you know in the manga he's the one who discovered Rhyperior.

It's really cool that the Pokemon evolving with Ancient Power turn into prehistoric creatures.

It's pretty obvious Gamefreak really loves the Fire/Fighting Pokemon and want to keep making them. With Fire being a starter type that is the best spot to put one in order for it to get a lot of exposure. They really wanna keep making Fire/Fighting starters but they now know that everyone else has come to hate the idea so they try to get as close as they possibly can without going whole hog.

In a recent comment it looks like that leaker who was leaking using riddles may have said that the starters' secret has been scrapped. It actually wouldn't be the first time something advertised in Corocoro wasn't followed up on such as when it said that Zorua would have an all new evolution method.
