They NEED to do something about the Dunsparce and Farfetch'd situation.

Let's not forget Pachirisu, Carnivine, Qwilfish, Stantler, Corsola and Shuckle too. Maybe they could beef up Heracross, Miltank and Pinsir as well.

 

[Lily Adler]

Mega Heracross and Pinsir exists. But a Mega Miltank would be OP. Damn you Whitney!

 

[Matt Mortem]

How dare you give me Miltank flashbacks. That sonofa***** ruined so many lives.

Damn, I forgot about the Megas for those bugs lol. I have still a ways to go to finish ORAS though. Yup, I've been taking my precious time. Only just passed Mt. Pyre atm as I've been spending a lot of time evolving and levelling up Pokémon, farming berries picking up essential items like the flutes and whathaveyou.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Headbutt the trees in Azalea Town until you find a Heracross. He'll take care of Miltank.

 

[FVD]

I think Complete Zygarde looks awesome.

These multiple forms really do remind you of Cell from Dragonball Z don't they?! As for Heracross, I just snagged one from the Safari Zone near Lilycove City so all is good now. Bye bye, Miltank!

I can't be the only one with a low interest in Pokemon Go, right? Nothing about it is jazzing me.

 

[Lily Adler]

It could be fun. I know I'll want to try it out once it launches.

You're not. A likely Pokémon Z version, which will probably just be a redux of X & Y, is more appealing than than Go.

 

[Matt Mortem]

I'd actually love if they did Z, but expanded on the X&Y games exponentially. I really liked them, but those games felt so small.

 

[Sparta*]

sucks they arent releasing a mainstream pokemon game this year I am not excited for pokemon Go either, but pokken tournament will definitley be on my buy list for next year, I just hope they release another 3ds mainstream game next year too

im still having a lot of fun with X/Y and OR/AS, breeding tons of mons, and I just recently got powersaves which is absolutley amazing

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Anyone ever play ROM hacks? I'm trying some now and it's a refreshing experience.

 

[FVD]

Wow I don't believe it. After a little persistence thinking I can do better in catching a Regigigas in OR, I just happened to catch it with only one Ultra Ball. Man that was funny even after all the balls I used up earlier lol. What to go after next? I want to catch some Bagons. Can I access the lower levels of Meteor Falls before doing the Sootopolis Gym? Or I need to have a Pokémon learn Waterfall first right?

Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon Commercial Shows Pikachu And Piplup Fighting Alongside Rayquaza. November 10, 2015 . 11:00am

Nintendo’s Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon commercial highlights the new bond between ordinary and legendary Pokemon.

[YT]gDfu-MshPuE[/YT]
With Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon’s release a little over a week away, Nintendo has released the game’s first TV commercial. The video confirms most of what people know and suspect about the latest entry in the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series. Players wake up in-game to discover they are a Pokemon, join a team, and delve into dungeons to perform tasks for other Pokemon. There’s also an overarching mystery concerning a strange affliction that’s turning the creatures into stone.

Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon is a rogue-like where a player answers a brief quiz at the beginning to determine their avatar and initial partner. However, as the game proceeds, people will be able to recruit 720 different Pokemon to their team. A sense of scale will be preserved, as the commercial shows how a Rayquaza dwarfs its Pikachu and Piplup teammates at the 17 second mark.

There’s also a sense of connectivity in Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon. You can ask another player for help if you faint either by having them provide aid locally over infrared wireless or using a code online. If you get this save, your Pokemon will be refreshed and retain their items instead of having to flee the dungeon with nothing. You can also StreetPass with another player to borrow one of their allies as a Helper Pokemon as an AI-controlled NPC the next time you go into a dungeon.

Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon will come to the Nintendo 3DS on November 20.

Pokemon Center Will Carry The N Nendoroid. November 11, 2015 . 10:00pm

The N Nendoroid will be sold on the Pokemon Center website.

Collaborations have led to multiple Pokemon Nendoroids already. There was a figure of Red, from Pokemon Red and Blue, as well as Cynthia from Pokemon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. Now, Pokemon Black, White, Black Version 2, and White Version 2’s N Nendoroid will come to the Pokemon Center too.

The N Nendoroid comes with two expressions, a Poke Ball, and Reshiram. He’ll launch on November 18. A price wasn’t announced, but both the Red and Cynthia Nendoroids were listed at $49.99.

While the Red Nendoroid sold out quickly, the Cynthia Nendoroid is still available online. Time will tell if N will sell out or linger.

I put this in the 3DS thread, but it fits here, too.

Pokemon Blue, Red and Yellow was announced to come to the 3DS VC. You can trade and battle via the 3DS WiFi, replacing the trading cable (which was considered the main reason mainline Pokemon games had not been released). Japan is even getting boxed releases. There's also a Pokemon Pictocross free to start game coming to the 3DS.

Ok so I don't know how common this is, but I got Pokemon Alpha Sapphire a couple of days ago and haven't really had time to play it. So I start up my game today that already has about 20 mins of progress, and I decide to try out Mystery Gift via Internet, and next thing I know, my gift is a lvl. 50 Zoroark.

EDIT: I just looked it up and noticed it's part of a Nintendo Network promotion. I just find it kinda awesome/weird that I'm starting off with a lvl 5 and 50 pair. I should pretty much breeze through the game if I have him as my backup.

Without the right badges that Zoroark is gonna be a bastard to control.

Without the right badges that Zoroark is gonna be a bastard to control.

Yeah, I tried to use him once and it totally didn't work lol

The other thing is, his sprite didn't even appear during the battle and he's not in my Pokedex. I wonder if he'd from a different gen that won't be unlocked until later.
