Someone needs to make a pokemon based on Mr. Bubz. It could be the first normal/demon type pokemon.

Galar form Mr. Mime

Death is no escape. You are doomed to roam the land forever.

Yamask - Each of them carries a mask that used to be its face when it was human. Sometimes they look at it and cry.

Phantump - These Pokémon are stumps possessed by the spirits of children who died in the forest. Their cries sound like eerie screams.
- According to legend, medicine to cure any illness can be made by plucking the green leaves on its head, brewing them, and boiling down the liquid.

Kill a child to gain their powers.

To be fair you're not killing them, just eating their hair.

It's a pretty good movie too.

Did he survive that dropkick? Because that looked like the kind of thing that could murder a person.

A Person, yes. He's a wrestler. :coal:

Today I learned that Levitate protects monsters from Ground type moves... even while they're underground after using Dig.
Vikavolt is a fountain of surprises.

How do you decide which version to pick? Do you check the exclusive monsters first, or decide based on what your IRL acquaintances will get?

I usually just pick the cold-colored version. I only broke that streak with Y because Hellbird won my heart.

Late to this convo, but my first shiny was a Scrafty in Black2, I love that green dumbass. Then gen6 was shinytown: Dragalge, Trevenant, two Lampents thanks to the Friend Zone or whatever it's called, a hatched Snivy (!!!)...

Haven't found any on gen7 yet, sadly.

Pokemans are cool.

Does it though? I've been playing Alpha Sapphire for the past few weeks, and I love it in terms of gameplay... but it kinda looks like rear end. Especially compared to the crisp colorful sprites of the original.

There's a few exceptions (Sea Mauville was incredible in the remake), but I was really shocked at how bad and muddled everything looked, even compared to Sun and Moon on the same system.

It's still way more than worth it, though. Gen 3 was fantastic, but I'll never be able to go back to before the physical special split without a lot of frustration.

The thing I miss the most about Gen 3 games is how seamless the maps felt. ORAS were good remakes but the way the game has to load new locations makes it feel... different.

Diggersby is Homer Simpson after a tragic teleporting accident. I love him.

I hope they make a movie about Armored Mewtwo duking it out with Complete Zygarde. They don't even have to star the human characters, just one hour and a half of biomechanical monsters fighting.
