The Pokemon Company infallible tactic

You know that they will fuck it up and this game will be a success only for nostalgia pandering because they know is the only way to sell it. Team Rocket and the others weren't even mentioned that much on the original S&M and they are going to be forced into the game for whatever pathetic excuse.

Sun and Moon felt incomplete because Masuda wanted to make it for the mobile audience. And it fucking worked. Sun and Moon are the fastest selling Pokemon titles because normalfags ate it up after Pokemon Gos success. So I hope you're ready for more of that shit!

At least I didn't buy it for full price, but fuck I should've just freeshopped that shit.

Eh. Switch is going to kill Pokemon sales anyway, which means that Game Freak is inevitably going to realize that if they want to appeal to their target market, they need to go back to the 16-bit era and put it on mobile phones.
I mean, hell, I'll absolutely pay for a Mobile port of Emerald that comes with Bluetooth and Network multiplayer support.
Or better yet, just go straight to PC and do the Pokemon MMO people were ranting about years back.

Why not just emulate Emerald on your Smartphone and do it that way?

And there's no way Gamefreak is going to put a main series title on mobile platforms. The only AAA titles we ever see end up on mobile are ports of 10 year old games. And for really fucking good reason. The markets could not be anymore different. AAA devs don't want to touch that toxic waste dump with a 10 foot pole. There's a concept in the entertainment industry that involves managing your properties value by selecting how it is distributed. It's why Netflix can't just get every blockbuster move on release. The same principle applies. If you whore your property out to the same platform whos biggest games are puzzle games at best you risk lowering its marketing value. This is why portable consoles like the Switch and 3DS need to exist, to fill this gap. And Gamefreak was never particularly good at predicting a consoles end-of-life anyhow. Ultra SunMo will be for the 3DS what Black and White 2 were for the original DS. Just another checkmark. After that GF will surely move on to Switch

All of that would be ok if those consoles were cheaper

Then you lower the marketing value of the consoles themselves. Which ultimately hurts 3rd party support and may actually end up in worse sales in the long run as a result. It's why Apple shit is so fucking overpriced. Never ignore marketing segmentation, it could save your life. And if your only portable gaming device is a smartphone then that's really depressing bro

Eww, am I on Holla Forums or reddit?

It's clear that Gen 1 pandering needs to die. The last good game is BW2.

I assumed he meant smartphone when he mentioned playing Emerald, I couldn't imagine playing Emerald on a smaller screen

But it does give me a great idea, Nintendo should release a cell phone with a Gameboy cartridge slot. I can see Japs eating that shit up because Japs are into that shit for some reason. I couldn't see it getting too far in the west but for the Japanese domestic market it sounds like a good idea

Ergonomics and feels-wise excluding another handheld its the closest experience you'll get to it

Gen 1 was only good gen. The series will never die, though. The furfags with "pokesonas" will buy them forever to get fresh ideas for their fetish art.

Fuck off cancer

The series needs a hard reset with the new Switch game coming out.
Make it more open world, less linear, less focus on main story but a strong focus on individual side-quests for various factions (Professors, explorers, breeders, etc).
Rework the evolution system so it's not a linear power progression, i.e. Gastly > Haunter > Gengar becomes Gastly (speed, learns moves fast) > Haunter OR Gengar (Haunter has higher SPAT and SPDF, Gengar has higher ATT and DEF, each learns different moves which can be passed on to children, so you can have a Haunter that knows a Gengar move, etc).

They just need to bring back the same level of linearity the old games had. The reason SunMo are so linear was because it was made for the mobile audience.

Lmao manchildren

if it didn't print money then they wouldn't be making the same jrpg over and over and over now would they?

Ultra Moon leaked.

post .cia you .cianigger

to be honest I liked the whole tropical setting they tried to set up,I think that's almost all the credit I can give it,better than the piles of shit that is the gen6 games.
also
yeah right mega.nz/#!Ux8UFCxL!ygWSn-X6kq2uUvtFE4vLHT6jUwGemTW6VIQWUkDKNvw

I'm just gonna check out Moon and see if I like anything Gen VII has to offer since I was talked into getting it.

Not even touching Ultra after the shit I've seen and heard so far unless it somehow turns out to be extraordinary aside from the traversing worlds idea and GF saying they're trying to push the 3DS to its limits withe everything they've leaned from VI's shit and apparently at least doing decent with SuMo.

Fucking disgraceful. Please let us know immediately of any fuckups.

I guess Apple makes 10/10 products then. ;^)

there's a reason they keep on pandering to genwun and pretending that the other gens don't exist afterall

So it's pretty much the FE:Awakening of Pokemon?

fify

I think releasing more waifumons is a better tactic.
It's been working with me since Gen IV

From what I've seen from trailers and shit alongside some leaks, I'm 99% sure that this isn't the case.

Are you even paying attention? This is multiverse shit, I am not saying it is good or well thought but these niggers come from a parelle universe were they beat the protagonist. The worse part is that this means that Zinnia was right

You have to be at least 18 both on the regular sense and mentally to post here.

You have to be at least 18 years old to post here (mentally as well)

...

Here are the fuckups if you want them :

I didn't delete it, it was deleted by a hotpocket.

I've given up after buying Sun and my last Pokemon game I played was gen 3 when it actually came out.

I've decided to just make my own Kanto/johto Pokemon game in UE4

I know it was fucking awful, but since I have less time to play vidya now, Sun was a comfy adventure. Even managed to do some competitive breeding. I'm looking forward to US/UM, and fighting the Rockets again.
I'm not saying Pokemon ever had the potential to be like SMT or a major RPG, but I still feel bad liking something that's making a franchise worse.

A Fire Emble, Xenobladem or a Zelda MMO is more likely to be made than a Pokemon MMO. Pokemon MMO NEVER EVER!

Nothing says "new Pokemon game" like genwunner pandering. Who gives a shit about the oldest and most basic pokemon at this point? OH BOY, now this Vulpix is white instead of red, wowee!

Instead of Pokemon, make an original monster fighting rpg. Pokemon fan projects get Cease and Desists quicker than Sonic after drinking Monster energy drinks.

He provides a variety of ways to improve and add more depth to the series overall, but you ignore all of that to say "they need to bring back the old linearity, because S/M are super linear?" I don't understand what you're trying to say there, and you aren't explaining your "mobile audience claim" either.

Pokemon MMO would have to be too grindy to be viable because lvl 100 would be achieved in a day, and the content would be short

It would have to have a complete different structure and gameplay. The best you can do with that recipe is, profit-wise, copy WoW's Global Cooldown gameplay and make it for EVERY SINGLE POKEMON. However obviously it would be simple rotations and simple keybinding for each (no more than 15 binds per pokemon, discounting macros)
Then the pokemon trainer is the MC, and he can have up to 6 pokemon with him. he can switch pokemon ANY TIME with a bind and switch to match the weakness type, the strategy, etc. (debuff/buff with a pokemon, then baton pass or switch to another, apply DoTs, switch, etc)
It has potential to be good, but it would require effort, good programmers with expertise with MMO gameplay. The replayability is off the charts considering there's how many pokemon now? and you can make different comps for your raids, dungeons or even pvp.

That's the BEST way to make a pokemon MMO, but it would require a heavy investment and that's very rare in current year.

Not to mention re-balancing their mess would be a nightmare.
I'd argue a Digimon World 1 fan-game would be better. Ignore the monster-catching as a focus, and make fan work of any RPG. SMT, Persona, Disgaea, FF Tactics, Fire Emblem, fucking anything where you've got plenty of options to build a party or army.
And in the process of building it, throw in some of your own mechanics, change the name, and it's a new fucking game.

I am curious how you'd re-invent monster catching though. Everyone wants to use everything, but IMO bosses need to be something else or of a much higher level.

Supporting it financially while acknowledging that is a reason to feel bad, not simply enjoying it. Recognizing its faults in discussion is the important thing.

Just don't let them catch boss-tier monsters, problem solved.

There'll never be a Pokemon MMO. You'll more likely see Kid Icarus get an MMO than Pokemon. Advance Wars has a better shot at getting an MMO. Golden Sun Online will be a thing while Pokemon plays it safe with the same old. Kirby MMO is more likely than Pokemon MMO.

A Digimon fan-game would be cool with added pet-simulation in the vain of Monster Rancher, Tamagotchi and Chao Garden with a headpat mechanic.

He never said the games were great. The point is that they are clearly successful games despite the quality.

Wouldn't be the first I've ignored

From trying out the new meta, itd be pretty solid if you remove a lot of the recent stuff. I was working towards a mix between ORAS gameplay in a gen 2 setting with a lot of the designs and color palettes being straight from the original game.

I had tossed around the idea of something similar to a totem Pokemon in which several trainers and their Pokemon could battle at once like a raid boss

HGSS still the best 1973 tbh

I really want porn of the new female rocket grunt, at least Pokemon games are still good for that.

Definitely true.

Even the anime girls didn't disappoint, thanks to PM Gals.

I want to see a pokemon with all the coolt hings each gen has
and new things too

How could you forget the World Tournament? That was the hypest post-game of any Pokemon. I didn't play past Black 2.

It's leaked, someone mirrored it to vola. Go get it faggots and don't forget to stay offline, use an already-banned 3DS if you can't wait.

US/UM was a mistake. Don't mean to sound like a genwun faggot but honestly I think the best step for their first HD mainline Pokemon game would be to recreate gen one in their new engine.

People have been saying it for years and I'll say it again. A Pokemon MMO won't happen until Nintendo is on it's last legs. Similar to how a FFVII Remake wasn't announced until Square Enix found themselves in a dire financial situation.

Just skip to the DP remakes, best of both worlds as long as they don't pull this Ultra-Beast/Rainbow Rocket/Sinnohan Formë/Ruin-Original-Designs shit with it.

I haven't even touched my 3DS for months and I'm completely out of the loop with the state of things.

Is Freeshop still working? Can I expect the game to be there before release date or will I have to wait? I can't install the .cia right now because my SD card is just short of having enough space and everything is closed.

Is there another way of installing the thing that does not require having twice the space of the game free?

This nigga don't even have a Vita

Considering they can't stop jerking gen 1 off, I can see them doing this. You won't go get to go to Johto, though.

Get a FTP client on your PC and try doing a network install with FBI, I recommend WinSCP. Also, switch to the fork of Freeshop in the OP if you haven't already.

Thank you very much for the info. But there is nothing on Freeshop in the OP. Are you thinking of other thread?

I just want battle strategy you nigger. Where's my new Pokemon Stadium?

Speaking of that, Why are fursonafags so autistic? I mean it's mostly trannies and tumblrinas who are into that shit, but it's still autistic as fuck.

I might pirate it only because white archie makes people salty

It's a mystery.

My bad.

Can someone transfer data from a non hacked 2ds to an out of the box n2dsxl and then softmod it?

from what I've seen it really is the case

maybe he pirated it

...

pic related

2>5>1>4 and everything else is irrelevant, though I wouldn't say any of those 4 listed are bad by pokemon standards.

where's your dubs then nigger?

4 was good due to the Johto remakes. 3 was great, but 6 was shit with the Hoenn remakes failing to hold a candle to Emerald. 7 is shit, but is the best selling and most popular.

Riddle me this, Holla Forums. Why is it that so many of the coolest Pokemon remain wildly unpopular among fans and get little to no fan-art while "Generic Lucario clone" or "Generic Dog mon" (Like Absol, Eeevee) get all the attention.

Furries.

generic lucario clone and generic dog mon are the easiest to fuck

Furfags, user. It’s always furfags.

3 sucked with how much it removed from 2 forward and the story and some of the gameplay changes but Emerald was alright for all the content it added. I guess if you count the Kanto remakes as gen 3 then that improves it a lot.

Because it's hard to make Rhydon porn

...

...

This

Ninty ain't gettin' my money.

What about goodra? It destroyed goomy and sliggoo's line with it's terrible design, and is the hottest thing with pokefags right now. seriously, goodra got more porn faster than any other mon It's more popular than gardevoir atm.

It combine the faggotry of furfags with the arguably bigger faggotry of fatfags.

Not to mention goodra isn't even a reptile nor a dragon and it's a massive autism magnet. I've never been so disappointed with pokemon until goodra came and ruined goomy and sliggoo.

Not trying to say you're lying, but how do you know that?

Anything that goodra is posted onto. e621, tumblr, sexualdeviants and of course, furfagaffinity. The numbers don't lie, goodra is prime fetish material.

I chuckled

If japs can make a entire show about them being moe, then that means you must be wrong

please

really make me think

Turn it into a gritty M rated experience. :^)

Nah.

All of those statements are true.

mega.nz/#!0ex0mZaT!vUS1JbAZ5b7Vqu1eVmv8PREVORIPqD9_LPgxoJ3X_Tc

Ultra moon, don't link to cuckchan or any normalfag site you fucking IDIOTS. That's what gets them removed!!! Unless you're doing that for the reason that you're a fanboy and WANT them removed, then your mom will die in her sleep.

You have to go back.

VIRUS, DO NOT DOWNLOAD

HAHAHA not today FBI!

Do games need to have continuity? Why can't a cast of characters that exist in one game be given different roles or appear in a later one without autists complaining about the timeline and how it doesn't add up to their theorycrafting.

Really activates them old almonds

How do I update from menuhax luma to B9S?

3ds.guide

I downloaded it, but the Sun and Moon cheat plugin does not work with it yet, so I'm just going to keep the .cia for now and continue playing Sun. But holy shit does this shit really test my SD card

Only has R9 Loader Hax to B9S, not menuhax.

Just read the guide you fucking faggot
3ds.guide/get-started

You sound like you have personal experience with those two groups, user.

I don't care. Dropped the series entirely when I saw the first trailers for Sun and Moon. The existence of the Switch just reinforced that. Nintendo is completely for normalfags now. Fuck it. Not even mad about it at this point. Used to it by now.

Hopefully the new pokegirls will continue to please my dick, though, even if the games are complete shit. It's all I care about. Everyone here should be doing the same thing.

I'm already here, user.

Good. More game for me

No shit, if you've spent more than a month on the internet you'd realize how faggoty they are.
Unless you're one of them.

So since all the online features are behind the Switch Paywall- you've got no real reason to enter the competitive scene with the next game.
You can't even trade.
And then they'll wonder why it sells less.
At best they'll give you free access to Pokebank if you pay for online.
At worst people will pay out and eat that shit up, for Pokemon.

Stop that, hex maniac is pure.
I bet your waifu is a shit tier whore like megumin or something;

How is dress up now?

Oh. Didn't realize it was embeded in another section.

I don't have a waifu. No love, lust only.

I'm under the suspicion that 1a4f3b is one of them.

Why do so many (((youtube eclebs))) praise Sun and Moon? Do they have shit taste, or is there something (((more))) to it?

They will eat shit as long as long as it's an official Nintendo product. And they are willing to pay extra if a Japanese manlet shits directly down their throats.

I guess that goes for consumerism and unjustified brand loyalty in general. Fuck Nintendo. If they make something that really interests me (won't fucking happen), I might consider buying a used shitty gimmicky console ten years from now so that I can pirate the baby game, if it's not possible to emulate (and it will be).

what the fug
I thought it might just be Moon with a logo slapped on but it's the real deal

I wish flags weren't persistant

Uh dude, "Team Rocket" is a good reason.

you have to go back.

I'd just like to state, for the record. Fatfurs are fucking shit and ruin literally everything.
Yes, they are capable of ruining furshit.
Imagine how much you hate furries, if every atom in my body represented a unit of hate, multiplying the hate by yours would not even be close to a billionth of the hatred I have for fatfurs.

Pokemon threads on Holla Forums are cancer

Please be 12 somewhere else. MMOs are shit and for all intents and purposes Pokemon is already an MMO considering people play the games online.

Nice dead links faggots

Or, you know, Sun and Moon were good.

Not if they are about it being shit.

But they weren't. I haven't played them, but they were still shit. And again, I don't care if the games suck, because I only care about one thing.

Gen 5 is the last good gen tbh.

Too bad they aren't
Then fuck off, faggot.
Subpar porn only underaged faggots like?

Are you stupid? how much new content do you think emeral added? Third versions have always been like this, they aren't worth shit unless you didn't play the base game, if you already did that just don't buy. Also who the fuck buys both games? get friends or connect to the internet.

They were shit. Somehow even worse than X and Y

But nostalgia pandering doesn't work like that, oldfags don't like most things about the new games

G A S

F U R F A G S

Only /vp/ retards use this pathetic buzzword for any fans of Gen V.

So is US/UM a sequel or a rerelease of S/M?

You know that's a load of shit.

Is literal tumblr. About 45% of the users there are literal tumblrites. It's just amazing how cucked it's become. No more teckworks, no more real men artists, nothing. It's just tumblr. Have you seen the drawthreads? All the cismale privileged NEET shitlords are gone and it's full of "im cloudgender pan romantic kin" snowflakes who go on /vp/ drawthreads because they didn't get enough likes/reblogs on tumblr. They try to fit in by blaming Holla Forums for everything and unironically calling out transphobia or some shit. my sister is an ftm tranny who whores in those drawthreads daily

Almost as funny as "Sinnoh Fetuses"

They want to play it as a sequel but it's just a rehash, the worst one in Pokemon history.

Is there at least a CIA download? Preferably of Ultra Moon?

[Triggered]

Really? It used to be one of the few good boards. But then again, I don't even know how many years ago that was. Always have been horrible at keeping track of time.

Might be a consequence of the series itself going to shit. Since when has the board been terrible?

And still with two versions. Definitely no Battle Frontier, or any kind of challenge that can get you to keep playing after beating the champion. That wouldn't please the nintoddlers, because they would lose, so I assume that it won't happen.

You're in luck, check the vola.

Please more. And I'm not even any kind of waifufag or a fanboy.

I haven't seen any of the shit since I left before 2016. The last year I spent on /vp/, I think 2015, before accepting it was beyond saving was fucking amazing and I mean in the most horrible, lawless way.

Even that fucking faggot cuck Jewt stated the Pokemon board was his least favorite board ever and it showed both infuriatingly and hilariously. The entire moderation was rumored to straight up hate it and see no possible solution to the rampant shitposting nonintelligible presumptuous arguments that easily exploded and trashed an entire thread, including genwars, which were officially banned in the rules already and could last for hours, more than an hour of no apparent hotpocketing would result in porn spam, the majority of anons were burnt out, visibly despairing and descending into madness waiting to see if there was any way to salvage Gen VI after XY and ORAS' painfully worrying consistent shit on top of everything that happened last year to 4chan. Even on Christmas 2014 anons straight up cried manly tears and contemplated at the fact Gary and Slugfucker's wrath could not be quelled and grieving and spitting venom and bitter laughter for the entire board in the wake of GamerGate. By the way? With the decline of /a/, /vp/ became absolutely distrustful and hostile to any and all crossboarders from any remotely "compromised boards" and while having no patience for what seemed to be Holla Forums shitposting anything to do with their yuri, delicious 2D brown or their Pokephilia, they still rampaged relentlessly against anything perceived to be tumblr. When Slugfucker descended, they vengefully pursued, exposed and dragged it into Hell before it even landed just for pissing them off every day for a few months.

It was horrible and it yet was twistedly beautiful and amazing. Like if you went Pokemon fan meetup in a decent looking city town with nice plushes and posters in the window and opened the door to suddenly get blasted in the face with an mocking earraep of Gen III's trumpets, people of any shape and color screaming, swearing and throwing everything at each other including their handhelds, people jacking off without any discretion and people literally being beaten up with anything in reach and even blasted with shotguns.

So, is it true that US/UM has MORE dialogue than S/M? I loved Team Skull but for fuck's sake, you had to scroll through 70 walls of Hau talking about his fucking stupid ice cream in order to read one good line written in this shitty fucking game. Team Skull was the only redeeming factor of Gen 7. If they are less prevalent and/or if this game is more dialogue-centric, it might be the only game in the series for around a decade that I skip.

I played a little bit of the beginning. It's about the same I think. You get your starters MUCH EARLIER though, as in, immediately after you leave your house. So that's an improvement already

Is there a reason to use any other starters besides Rowlet now?

Most of my hex stuff would get me banned if I posted it all at once, but here's something for Christmas.

Sounds like a massive shitstorm. I haven't seen any of this, but I do remember hearing about moot saying this, and I assumed that it was just him being a "thinking man". Many years ago I remember that he said something about liking /jp/, so he did have some taste in him, and certainly enjoyed Japanese birds and lolis that wear various colorful accessories on their heads and like hitting other girls with their balls, drawn by a Japanese alcoholic, generally wearing a green hat (surely one of the greatest men to ever live).

Anyway, I left when moot said and did some dumb shit during the beginning of GamerGate (I don't remember when that was, and didn't really care about discussing GG itself too much, even though it was entertaining, but moot did piss me off, and a better site was available, so I moved almost immediately) because I heard of this place.

It's inevitable, though. Everything goes to complete shit at some point. Technology as a whole has been depressing as hell for me because of just how bad everything has been getting since 2007/2008. The "old internet" has quickly been disappearing, as well as the cool people, and it's all being replaced with shit that doesn't interest me at all. It all looks the same. A bunch of dull monopolies supported by boring people that are younger than me and sound even younger than that. Starting to feel old and isolated now. Probably will move to a 16chan eventually, if the internet is still usable in a few years.

I'm not gonna believe that. Suppose you were able to somehow continuously manufacture the exact circumstances you need for something like a site to exist and continuously produce users that kept the most important and sentimentally accepted parts the same. Hypothetically, if you devoted enough autism and craziness to that, you could force something like a particular board to remain eternal.

Thanks. Can I get an artist name for the previous 2?

If you're asking about they're done by a guy named maydrawfag. He draws some good stuff.

Is it really that hard to search "hex maniac porn" on startpage and scroll?
look on danbooru

user, he's never gonna learn to find sauce if you spoonfeed him

Thanks.

I don't expect to find any name of a drawfag from anywhere but an user themselves. Otherwise, I just silently wait for something to image search.

The game is doing what BW2 did with the World tournament. You do know what that is right? It's just pure fan service. Not just to Genwunners either.

To be honest I'm not sure how people can go through every generation without stopping for a bit.
X/Y felt like going 10 steps backwards for reasons I can't remember, and Sun/moon felt like I was chained to a tour guide that only goes in one direction.

I'm willing to give US/UM a go, but if the game feels as restricted as the first one, then I'll probably skip it as well.

Also, I heard Hex Maniac artists tend to give her tits so gigantic and saggy they legitimately start looking unappealing.

Hopefully, nips do that less.

You poor soul

It's only possible if the people and the environment don't change, and good luck keeping that from happening. Hell, things didn't need to be controlled in the past. The internet now belongs to the lame masses, and that's the problem. It no longer contrasts the dullness of the real world. Might even stop using it entirely in a few years, especially if this computer dies.

Honestly, I don't even know where the hell everyone is. The cool people (that were generally older than me) and cool shit seem to be completely gone. I still like this place, but there is pretty much nothing else that interests me. Even the webdesign itself is shit nowadays (and naturally attracts swarms of flies), since almost fucking everything is developed for phones at this point. I could complain all day about software in general, but I won't, because fuck that. Drinking myself to death is more productive, though I can't do that right now. Doing it later. Liquid death is great when combined with video games.

Fug.

Yeah, you're basically me, everyone cool disappears or turns into a literal faggot. Gentrification is fucking shit up, and normalfags and kikes are to blame.

>only noteworthy change is the new wild pokemon and trainer battle themes which are both shit, and that Rotom has to comment every time you run into a new pokemon in the wild
Why would anyone pay money for this, seeing as how the new selling point is postgame content?

Who said anything about oldfags? Gamefreak is pandering to the "retro kids" who want a new game but with old pokemon because they're that hipster.

Here comes another one.

There is no postgame content.

Yeah, I really like how S&M literally imposed no challenge, had awful companions, literally no post-game outside of getting Zygarde and how long and tedious it was. The trials were a joke, the game runs awful even on a New 3DS and it's obvious that it was made to get the cash from kids and 1st gen fags with the "MUH ALOLA VERSION OF 1ST GEN POKEMON" and Gamefreak didn't even care as long as they got the money.
At this point I'm sure that you loved ORAS and going to pay full price for US/UM.

Amazing argument faggot.
No user, you're the cancer.

LOL

meant for

Why exactly will the Switch kill Pokémon sales?

The difference is that the world tournament works because it’s a tournament you sperg. They’re shoving all the villains in when it doesn’t make sense as to why they’d work together when they’d all easily go after each other for domination.

That is just so shitty.

Leaks for US/UM are out.
I'll post these unspoilered since one is limited to when you buy the game, and the rest other could affect your purchase. I have not looked up any story spoilers:
> If the hacks/datamines are correct, there are no new Alolan forms, or new Pokemon (outside of what we have already seen and the event legendary posted already). Obviously the Alola dex now has new Pokemon from older games however.

Spoilers below.
No, I'm serious. Odds are US/UM aren't going to have many surprises, so if you are interesting in playing it- even by piracy- turn back now so you can get something out of it. I'm not gonna spoil things like typing at the least.
UB Adhesive evolves when it learns A certain move. It's a weird alien bee-dragon. Kind of. It's just as weird as other Ultra Beasts. It is gifted to the player, and not shiny locked.
Ultra Space- A.k.a. places where you catch ultra beasts and maybe legendaries- "have trainers to fight". Whether this is just a few, or all of them are their own dungeon- I don't know.
Necrozma has another form, on top of possessing Solgaleo and Lunala. It changes from the "possessing" form into this other form (No idea if this is triggered by a move, or a turn-1 transformation like when Groudon/Kyogre have their orbs). It has a Z-Move, it's stats seem to be sweeper material, it has a new ability, and it's type changes- part Psychic.

Fucking broken game, dropped.

Man, it really is nothing.

New moves pokes can learn (unsure what is by Tutor, Breeding, event, etc):
- Kommo-O can learn Close Combat, Gunk Shot, and Drain Punch.
- Decidueye gets Shadow Sneak and Phantom Force
- Toucannon gets Gunk Shot
- Lucario gets Meteor Mash
- Deino gets Belch
- Tsareena gets Power Whip
- Tapu Fini gets Icy Wind

Move tutor list (if it can learn it by breeding, odds are it can be tutor'd it):

Bug Bite is useful considering the berries have a boost of healing half HP.
Foul Play could fuck over Belly Drum users- depending on what can learn it.
Last Resort, Recycle and Drill Run now doesn't need breeding.
Electroweb and Icy Wind give more ways to lower your opponents speed rather than speed control only being raising your own with Tailwind).
Zen Headbutt could give more suprise flinches
Hyper Voice doesn't need to be bred onto Gardevoir, Salamance or Sylveon- but Throat Chop could be more common.
Knock Off is back- and still does increased damage even against items it can't remove (Z-Crystals and Mega Stones), IIRC.
Heat Wave and Synthesis means Sun teams got a great boost.
Role Play, Skill Swap, Gastro Acid, and Worry Seed could lead to some wildcard stuff.
Everyone loves Heal Bell, Tailwind, Drain Punch, and Helping Hand
Water Pulse might help some Technician users, but as most of them are physical I doubt it.
Trick and the Rooms outside of Trick Room will be forgotten.
Sneaky Pebbles are back, as is Defog.
If Laser Focus can be combined with Anger Point… It'll still be useless since it takes a turn to set up. (Though in theory if you Taunt someone so they can't Protect, you've got a free target next turn. IF the Anger Point poke survives to pull it off).
Stomping Tantrum could be interesting.
And Liquidation could be very interesting depending on who gets it. Though Aqua Tail is there if they don't, and Waterfall is still a TM.

As someone with a 178 strong Hex Maniac folder, I can say I haven't seen those two images in any of the places I've browsed yet.

So either I'm retarded or he's in the right.

This is fake, right?
They’re not being THAT blatant about wanting the furfag audience, ‘’right?’’

They're drawn like shit, though.

Please kill yourself

False
False, considering XY exist
False, Battle Tree exists

SPEED CONTROL BITCHES

Please be underaged somewhere else.

It looks like a fan-made Pokemon. But, they also know what works. Lucario is good for kids because of the sentai warrior schtic, and they can't tell it's adults drawing the (non-lewd) fan art. They tried to do the same with Zoroark, but not to the same success.
On the other hand, if anime shows keep putting in little girls because they know their audience "likes" them, why wouldn't Game Freak know about this. Nintendo banned even mentioning PPPU on Miiverse(or whatever the filename of that one flash with Peach and Daisy), and had to DMCA furry porn of Star Fox in Samus' Zero Suit outfit, since it was turning up when people searched for Star Fox Zero.
I'm more surprised this is a stand-alone Poke. If it was legendary, you'd expect more out of it's design, or it being part of a pair/trio. If anything, it looks like a normal Pokemon you'd find next gen (like the evolved form of an early electric type).

Good, both of those things are shit and the subhumans who like them need to be shot.

That's just fucking yellow Lucario.

At moments like this I just hope for the norks to cleanse this land. Also wasn't the guy commissioning most of the Fox stuff from here?

Forgot the most important thing that we already know.
Lycanrock's Z-Move removes Terrain effects.
So if you don't have your own Tapu/Terrain setter to play into your strategy why not, you'll have to use Lycanrock's Z-Move (over using other Z-Moves).
Unless any moves have been modified to remove Terrain.

...

Some battles aren't absurdly easy, but that doesn't mean they're really challenging
Also

Respect your elder, son. He has been 18 for a whole two days. The oldest motherfucker in this thread. A real internet veteran.

How about that.

I mean if you're going to do customization, trainer outfits for different types of trainers you encounter seems like a given, right?

Additional- it is theorized Lycanrock's Z-Move does not make contact, so it is not boosted by Tough Claws. Boo. It can be bred if a Smogon post is to be believed, so you could just beg for one via trade. All you'll miss out on is Happy Hour and Fire Fang/Thunder Fang.
Hoard battles might be back, but it's just one guy on Smogon saying it. And how that'll work with Double Wild battles I don't know. (I don't imagine 1 can ever turn into 5, and that hordes will be separate- as their levels will be lower).
"There is a new evolution method to obtain non-alolan Raichu, Exeggutor, and Marowak" if a Twitter posting leaks is to be believed.
> Zizagoon is getting Extreme Speed as an egg move- but it should be noted Zigzagoon is not in the Alola Pokedex.
> Klefki, Rotom, Serperior, Gliscor, and Altaria can learn Defog via tutor. If you play tiers, every tier now has a Defogger. List of fully evolved pokemon that can learn Defog here: smogon.com/forums/threads/ultra-sun-ultra-moon-datamine-thread.3620028/page-10#post-7574565

Statwise it's theorized UB Assembly can survive even Garchomps attacks (3KO on Earthquake or something). Basically the only things you'd not leave it in on are Focus Blast (which misses) or Earth Power. With 61/131/211/53/101/13 (BST: 570), it's ideal for Trick Room. However it would need a -Def nature to boost Atk with Beast Boost (possibly). It doesn't get Heavy Slam, but it does get Gyro Ball somehow- which will be at max power.
The loss of 2 points of speed for Lycanrock Dusk are condemning it to PU tier (if you believe Smogon).
The full Alolan Dex is pic related and spoilered.
Bare in mind it lists alternate forms you might not encounter as well- including non-Alolan forms and shinies. Also- Sun/Moon never gave you a national dex- so some of these Pokemon might be in Post-Game areas like most of Poni Poni. And you have the PokeRadar which lets you catch stuff that's not in the Alola Dex either. The dex entries are quirkier than ever.
Island scan is:
Melemele: Charmander, Squirtle, Onix, Horsea, Scatterbug, Bulbasaur, Litwick
Akala: Ralts, Spheal, Combusken, Honedge, Beedrill, Grovyle, Marshtomp
Ula'ula: Rhyhorn, Swinub, Prinplup, Grotle, Pidgeot, Monferno, Axew
Poni: Eelektross, Aggron, Rotom, Leavanny, Chesnaught, Greninja, Delphox
Blissey is now an SOS encounter off of Chansey in Poni Plains. It has a 5% chance of holding Lucky Egg. It's assumed you'll still get a Lucky Egg the same way you did in Sun/Moon, but if you want more- that's how.

At least someone at GF knows how to have fun.

Pokemon GO was such a shit game. The normalfags aorund me would play it and you could use some GPS spoofer to teleport aroudn and collect all the pokemon while the other fags had to walk.
The owners didn't care because they wanted more shekels and never banned anyone.

I'm sorry, would you like me to take 5 separate posts to reply to posts in this thread like you would do?

Hex Maniac is garbage, all the artwork with her is garbage. Get over it, you lose, cunt.

Because they never implemented PVP, and combat took no skill, and going with a full 3D game on smartphones sucked battery life like crazy. They should have done a 2.5D approach with Pokemon sprites rather than 3D models, that way you appeal to nostalgiafags even further.

>Triggered

Are you new or do you just not know what that term actually means?

Kill yourself already.

I can smell the underaged sweat coming from your undeveloped balls, user. Get some taste in games and fake women.

I think you should lurk more

did they finally added bellossom?

Wasn't the whole point with Sun and Moon was that crazy shit was going on because people and creatures from an alternate reality when jumping into your world? Aren't there alternate versions of trainers you fight in Sun and Moon? Jesus… when the excuse is either you, or they are literally jumping through dimensions. By probability literally anything is possible. So ending up someplace where all the villains are just hanging out with eachother with some goal in mind is *drum roll* …possible. You're literally ignoring the whole premise of the game to make your argument. This is the only scenario where they could get away with something like this.

But again, it's just fan service. Unless the game on the Switch goes all the way with this concept. I really doubt you'll see something like this again. So personally, I'll just take the remixes and move on.

No, but it has gotten a new move with Strength Sap

The excuse is each of them (or just the ones outside of Giovanni) "won" in their worlds, and somehow fell into US/UM.
IIRC, Masuda hated the "kitchen sink" proposals (throw in everything from older games)- so doing this now means he'd never have to do it again as he'd probably retire before the idea wasn't "old" again.
Nostalgia bait, getting rid of shit you don't like on a game that had TONES missing, and focus on the next game as a clean slate.

Fuck Masuda, he's a hack with a god complex.

...

Who the fuck cares, it's like attaching a story to a plush packaging.

It's spelled "tons" or "tonnes", autist.

This.

Pokemon gameplay hasn't change…
I'm in it for the ero-doujins

Seems less chatty but I'm only a half hour in. When does it fuck up?

When you find out the game barely has any postgame like SM.

I'm not gonna get to the post-game, I'm gonna play it enough to bitch about it and then go back to playing real games.

At least ultrabeasts have the excuse of coming from an other dimension.
