I just want to see how gym like the gym replacements are. I hope they're a little more creative than "gyms, but a different name".

What's everyone's favorite team? I think my favorite was my first Y team. Chesnaught, Charizard, Scizor, Gallade, Manectric, and Garchomp. just overpowered everything

Mine is my BW1 team: Samurott, Lilligant, Scrafty, Archeops, Reuniclus, and Chandelure.

Maybe not a good team for competitive, but I've always liked them. :unsmith:

Hey so the Japanese website has been putting up old Pokemon with some new descriptions like for Pinsir it says something about Vikavolt being their rivals in Alola. They just put up Arcanine recently:

http://www.pokemon.co.jp/ex/sun_moon/pokemon/160826_02.html

I'm posting this because one of the leaks said there would be water type Alolan Arcanine it was also the one that said there would be fighting type Alakazam. So unless they decide to have both, water Arcanine isn't happening possibly along with whatever was in that leak, which makes me sad because I wanted to see it.

Sad, I wanted a water pupper.

Back to waiting to see if there are any decent new water types.

The leak that's was out before the release also said there was a Pokemon that evolved when the 3DS was turned upside down which is probably why anyone tried it in the first place.

If I remember correctly, the leaker was a playtester, which is how they found out.

If anime has taught me anything, it's that Aether are totally going to be evil. They're set up too goody-goody while being tech focused in a story that seems to be about how tech things are going wonky.

I think he used the life of thousands of humans and pokemon to power it and give him and his Floette eternal life. Floette was not too happy with this, and left him.

If I remember correctly, it was originally built as a weapon but then his Floette died. In his grief, AZ used it to revive her and give himself eternal life.

At least in X that was the case.

I still remember when the New 3DS was coming out and we had that one dude who was freaking out about the SD card being locked in behind screws and decided to 'practice screwing' so he wouldn't damage the 3DS

:allears: goons.

That was me actually thanks.

It was in fact the dumbest thing and I'm simultaneously proud and ashamed of my legacy.

(I had zero trouble once I actually got my n3DS. The practice payed off???? ...nah, not really.)

Well we'll either find out all about the games on the 18th October, or 18th November. Place your bets on if they properly scrub the demo.

Since when did Game Freak employ competent programmers?

Same. But the supposed "Sun" final evo of Popplio doesn't fit it's middle evo while the likely leak does. So.

everyone dies in the rse manga. the only one i remember for sure is the girl who gets crushed by rocks. i think the dad is either thrown into a wall or asphyxiated by a tentacruel ?? someone might burn to death as well. spoilers

It's ok because Ruby had a Celebii the whole time, so he just reverses time to bring everyone back to life.

Fair warning, that link probably has hella spoilers depending on when you open it. It's just trickling in now but I am not responsible if y'all click that and find out Alolan Mega Dragonite is really just two Salamence taped together.

According to that thread the obviously fake "leak" about split starter evos, is, to no one's shock, fake.

I mean, I don't blame Game Freak but it's still a little sad. At least Alola variants are closer to new Pokemon than megas are, considering you can use them always and they probably have new movesets.
