It is a shame Meowth evolves into persian.

I feel this way about Psyduck. Golduck looks so dumb in comparison. Persian also sucks. I dread the day they ruin Farfetch'd by giving him a lovely looking evolution. #KeepFarfetchdPure

That ridiculous Eevee animation where she gets powered up by all the Eeveelutions like she's about to unleash an insane powerful multi-eevee attack only to have the camera go back to the boring battle screen and go "eevee's attack rose sharply!" was pretty funny.

That werewolf is just more cememting my choice of Pokemon Moon as the better choice

So let me get this straight.

Dartrix: throws blades really good, very accurate
Torracat: big buff rowdy boy, very strong
Brionne: loves to dance

Popplio confirmed best starter

Dartrix has that 90s WB white guy hairstyle and he is PERFECT. I hope Brionne gets caught in a boat propeller

I'd like to trade in the Alolan Forms for more new Pokemon please. I wish they'd stop doing that. I love the designs of some of them, but I would prefer more new Pokemon instead. I didn't like when they did this with Megas either.

I'm in the minority I guess based on this thread but I'm never a fan when one of the games doesn't have a full roster and pads it out with old Pokes. Give me only new Pokemon, all the time.

i like the megas, primals, the alolan forms, all of them are good. do you also want nintendo to ditch shinies? just curious

its weird having seen this many RPGs use different colored versions of the same baddies in their games and feeling like that imo

Shinies aren't really the same thing, they don't fill out the roster like Megas and Alolan forms do

Golden Goat posted:

The Alola forms are pretty much new pokemon.

They're not. Dugtrio just now has beautiful golden locks. He's still Dugtrio tho

But like I said I'm in the minority

On the other hand I love that new Pokemon with the big mushroom hat.

I agree with this. I know people like megas, and there are totally some mega designs that are cool, but I'll never be as excited for a mega evolution as I would be a real evolution or a whole brand new Pokemon.

Except Farfetch'D, keep your filthy disgusting evolution wanting hands off my pure good non-evo Farfetch"D

the ice cream cone is good, bitches. here's a shiny Poipole code, if you claim it you have to tell me what pokemon you love that the majority of people consider ugly/dumb looking/useless

Also not claiming the code, but I loving love Klefki. It's just a pair of keys I LOVE IT. Also it's fairy type so it's super effective against loving DRAGONS so being able to beat the poo poo out of dragons with a bunch of door and car keys rules. Also one of my fondest Pokemon memories was basically one shotting the Mega Gyrados in X & Y with my car keys

If I recall correctly, there was a simple way to get unlimited steps in the Safari Zone. If you turn the direction you're facing, but didn't move from the spot you were standing on, it would count as a step for encounters but not towards the stop limit for the Safari Zone. As long as you just rotated and place in that one spot you had unlimited time. Walk to the area you wanted to catch in, and you were set.

HAHA that's right! I remember doing that. good times. I'm sad I'll never get that same sense of initial wonder and excitement from Pokemon as I did when Red and Blue first came out when I was a kid.
