this game is hilarious when you start drinking. My team in full effect, and a pretty good match.

aww yiss bitchizzzz



ADAPTABILITY. HI NARY.



NO GUARD FOR THE EXTRA MANLY





seems like a nice alternative to pokebank (and buying all of the games from each gen)

[Naryar]

ADAPTABILITY. HI NARY.

What ? Yes that mega beedrill is pretty manly in a gurren lagann way, but wut

Also seeing pidgeot get a mega is good. Though I am not convinced by mega pidgeot's appearance and it would be nicer if they just made normal pidgeot usable instead of being sh** tier since 6 gens.

No Guard doesn't seem THAT good. Though it's still better than Big Pecks *snorts*

mega steelix ? mega poliwrath ? mega electrode ? mega tauros ?

fapfapfapfap

mega snorlax would be nice AND MEGA HEATRAN PLEASE. WITH FILTER. YES.

[martymidget]

ADAPTABILITY. HI NARY.

mega steelix ?

prophet?

mega steelix ?

75 HP 134 ATK 225 DEF 65 SPA 55 SPD 56 SPE, gets Sand Force

well it's nice getting +30% on STABs free on sandstorm and +30% on SlideQuake (cause edgequake is for losers), but it doesn't get a special defense boost and it has quite a lot of power, but i'm not sure it can do anything in the current metagame.

Revenge killing Electric types or slower Rock/Steel types ?  Meh.

[Badnik96]

im sad that mega glalie isnt ice/dark

[Naryar]

i would have put it as ice/steel tbh

also i am betting it will be just as useless as standard glalie though it would be nice if it had like 105 in every stat, would help with awful typing

So apparently they added Soar, a better version of Fly who allows you to fly anywhere there is terrain.

Fly should be like that already.

same with dive/surf, Dive should be the same TM than Surf, I understand the need for Waterfall being a different TM though.

Mega Glalie gets Refrigerate

Explosion could probably OHKO anything that isn't Sturdy now

Would love to know who survives that tho

[Naryar]

Empoleon, Heatran, Cloyster and all the other Water/Ice types, Avalugg, Aggron, Bastiodon ?

And it gets ice shard. Dragons will suffer.

[martymidget]

I've been playing the demo- the gameplay isn't going to be in the main game, but I can transfer my glalie with its mega stone over when it comes out :D

It just looks so...good.

[Naryar]

so apparently mega glalie has +40 atk, +40 spa, and +20 speed.

well it may be usable.

-Ice Shard
-Explosion/Double-Edge/Return
-Hidden Power Grass
-Crunch

Probably with a nevermeltice or something like that.

[martymidget]

no nevermeltice with a mega stone nary

Mixed glalie could be interesting.

[thesnowingsteak]

Probably one of the weaker mega's out there

[Naryar]

no nevermeltice with a mega stone nary

Mixed glalie could be interesting.

o rite

and mixed glalie... not on ice moves since it loses power by not having good special ice moves (HYPER BEAM ), but sure, you can run Hidden Power Grass or Electric (grass is better though)

apparently it learns earthquake so yea

Ice Shard/EQ/Hidden Power Grass/Double-Edge seems nice.

I'm competing in this year's Nuzlocke Games. Basically the Hunger Games combined with the Nuzlocke run. I'd link to the forum I'm competing in but I don't want the skype kiddos to get ahold of my xXxEDGYxXx plot of doom so you guys can search for it if you want to. Playing a hacked Platinum with Piplup as my starter.

now i nearly want to get ahold of your edgy plot of doom and mock it

also water/steel is ridiculously awesome as a typing

je suis starmie?

but really, pokemon is still pokemon regardless of generation. Some were more cutesy than others but having someone go nuts for vulpix is no more or less 'furry bs' than having someone go nuts for fennekin. I say that knowingly waving my grovyle and scyther flags.

vulpix is very much a non-antropomorphic fox. there's nothing wrong with foxes. Well, it IS based on a kitsune which is rather furry, but furries from mythology and legend get a pass in my books because they're nothing like the modern internet furry.

fennekin on the other hand is very much an anthropomorphic witch fox, with... oh wait that's braixen that I am talking about :P

I guess fennekin isn't furry, his evolutions however... Well, sorry. I'll stop there.

because derailing threads is a scourge on this galaxy

Name a favorite pokemon.
