Pokemon

[pseudo goblet]

I really should do less Pokémon training and more legendary catching

[mighty storm]

Ya know what I wanna try? We should do a sky battle tournament

[pseudo goblet]

Like In this server, also Team Sky rules?

Which is, basically if you can BS explain why pokemon you have count as ‘Flying’ you in

Say Fezandipiti or Pokemon with Levitate

[bleak pine]

Oh like uh

Those battles where you only use fliers?

Man, Sky Battles were a pretty pointless sorta thing in XY.

The background and justification were pretty nice though

It's like a sorta dogfight in the air

[kind vortex]

aren't sky battles why flyers' models looked weird for a while

[golden lance]

Yes

Every mon that could fly had to in gen 6

Even the ones that look awkward like xatu, tropius, skarmory, and charizard

[bleak pine]

You had situations in stuff that could float can't participate

So, Gengar can't participate, but Haunter could

Not all flying types participated

Pidgey can't for example, since the model is on the ground

...Also, just gonna say I really miss Pidgey

Been awhile since I seen one.

[kind vortex]

bring back mega pidgeot cowards

[fading stratus]

they could in
zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba

[kind vortex]

ah yes, good ol' pokemon pizza

[bleak pine]

It just good birb

[tacit sphinx]

Pokemon Liberal Version 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Can you believe Pokemon have genders now

[fading stratus]

the joke was pokemon z-a................

[swift jasper]

but what about Ž and Ą

ever think of that?

😠

[harsh path]

Lillie

[pseudo goblet]

Masters EX?

[harsh path]

I just saw a Lillie mention

Lillie was a really enjoyable character for me when I was playing the last gen I played

Gen 7

[pseudo goblet]

@harsh path @fading stratus Oddly enough, we still don’t have her first outfit as an alt

Masters EX does have some alt that takes on the characters original outfit look, so we are likely to get that version of Lillie

[tacit sphinx]

What do y’all think is harder: Silver 2, or May 2

[pseudo goblet]

In what way

[tacit sphinx]

Harder fight

[pseudo goblet]

Alternate version of the character- ah

[tacit sphinx]

Like, the second rival fight

[pseudo goblet]

Welp, im off, can’t say a thing when idk it

[pseudo goblet]

Oh hail yeah! Mightiest Blastoise caught EZ, team was Virizion, Lucario, Gallafe and my Iron Hands

First attempt, didn’t have to train a new Pokemon for this raid lmao

[random stream]

May 2 probably

[pseudo goblet]

@mighty storm @spice rivet damn, I was this close to get a random shiny Deerling, this lil guy was next to a bunch of green deers

Immunity and Quirky, shiny baby boy really is just a honey badger huh

[fading stratus]

those outfits look better anyway

[pseudo goblet]

Damn, not Master ball, got an extra Lure ball tho

[mighty storm]

like the gen 6 rules

[mighty storm]

ooh nice

https://www.serebii.net/xy/skybattles.shtml

Though for the tourney I was thinking we could make it gen 9 (would have to go through the available scarlet/violet mons to make the new list of legal mons)

[fading stratus]

we can do like gen 9 natdex

:3

which would mean a lot more mons

[vagrant steppe]

Wow they really fucked up the entirety of flying mons models for...10 trainers

[fading stratus]

14 trainers smh

[bleak pine]

Oh yeah, some moves cannot be used either

...Not that some of these matter, but it's interesting

[pseudo goblet]

@fading stratus wtf Rockruff crocks

[pseudo goblet]

Let me guess, Earthquake

[bleak pine]

Yep

Most any kind of attack that starts at the ground can't be used

[pseudo goblet]

Good to know they had common sense in that matter

[bleak pine]

Like, Surf, Ingrain, Body Slam, etc

For whatever reason Slam and Body Slam can't be used

I dunno why though

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-pokemon-battle-frontier-snorlax-body-slam-full-power-gif-22103210

This should explain lmao

[fading stratus]

[bleak pine]

Very much

You need something between you and the ground to use it

[pseudo goblet]

So, lil maus became general workers? lmao

wait... child labor...

technically I would also be on 'not confirm they are the child' thing but

[bleak pine]

Might add in like, Stomping Tantrum, Body Press, Grassy Glide, Rising Voltage, Axe Kick, Ice Spinner, Trailblaze, and Supercell Slam to the list

[pseudo goblet]

should the terrains works?

[bleak pine]

They don't

[pseudo goblet]

mmm

[bleak pine]

Can't be used, as it seems

I also guess that'll also mean you can't have abilities that activate terrain be used, either

Only really relevant for island guardians, since I don't think anything that flies has such abilities aside those four

[fading stratus]

if we host the tour I'm bringing specs articuno and spam blizzard

[bleak pine]

That's a good strategy admittedly

Lots of stuff to nail with a blizzard

[fading stratus]

forgot to say this this morning but its because gengar has cursed body not levitate

[bleak pine]

Some picks I think would be nice would also be like, Bombirdier (Rock type moves, yo), Corviknight (It's just super durable), and Iron Moth (Sure, terrain can't be set, but a Booster Capsule don't care about that)

Yeah, that too

I just figured it was cause Gengar's model is on the ground

But that's a good reason too

[fading stratus]

moth is neither a flying type nor has levitate

[bleak pine]

But it does float!

[fading stratus]

you don't know maybe it has invisible legs

but if it floats why can it be earthquaked

checkmate liberal

[bleak pine]

You can use Bronzong in Sky Battles, but it doesn't necessarily have to have Levitate if memory serves

[pseudo goblet]

Mmmm, filmora software my old friend

[bleak pine]

damn good point, I've been had

[fading stratus]

honestly the restriction of flying + levitate mons should be fine

[bleak pine]

Yeah, I suppose!

That'll be well!

[fading stratus]

I'm bringing stall with cress and rotom W

[bleak pine]

So, let's see if I can compile an updated list

[vagrant steppe]

I dunno how you'd make it so these moves don't work on showdown tho

I guess you'd just have to agree to ban them

[mighty storm]

Yes self impose the banlist

[bleak pine]

Allowed mons, updated from the Sky Battle list Summer posted:

Galarian Articuno, Galarian Moltres, Vikavolt, Minior, Celesteela, Corvisquire, Corviknight, Enamorus, Kilowattrel, Bombirdier, and Iron Jugulus

Based on two factors, having either a flying typing or the potential for the ability Levitate, and is shown flying with their in-battle models

[vagrant steppe]

What about stuff like G-Zapdos?

Surely that's not legal

[mighty storm]

I was thinking we could like do it in game to, so only pokemon you can get in scarlet/violet.

[pseudo goblet]

Heh, at least she's self conscious, some part

[bleak pine]

Oh shoot, forgot about galarian birbs

Lemme update it

[vagrant steppe]

It's got a flying typing but it doesn't actually fly

[bleak pine]

And no, I think G-Zapdos is forbidden

[vagrant steppe]

Same with Flamigo

[bleak pine]

The curse of being a very angry Emu

[mighty storm]

flamigo 100% not allowed

[bleak pine]

Yeah

It's on the ground most times, even though it probably could fly

[pseudo goblet]

Zapdos my beloved

[vagrant steppe]

Flamingos can't really fly for long

They're like chickens

[bleak pine]

Yep

[vagrant steppe]

They can glide a bit, but they can't fly fly

[pseudo goblet]

so no for Sirfetch?

[vagrant steppe]

Oh I stand corrected

Flamigo is allowed

[pseudo goblet]

have we ever seen Farfetch fly for long?

[vagrant steppe]

Flamingos can fly for up to 300 miles at a time

[bleak pine]

Ahh

Interesting fact!

[mighty storm]

Did you know bombirdier is capable of having a 50% boost in 4 types at once

[bleak pine]

Even so, I think the default model does show Flamigo on the ground, so I don't think it's a valid choice

[bleak pine]

Yeaaa Rocky Payload

[pseudo goblet]

Dark Flying and Rock, whats the other?

[vagrant steppe]

Yeah but I think the models shouldn't be a determining factor

[bleak pine]

I guess whatever it's Tera Typing is

[mighty storm]

tera

[pseudo goblet]

ah

[vagrant steppe]

Since stuff like Charizard doesn't fly in it's model now

[bleak pine]

Yeah, the models thing is pretty stupid, but that's how it went in XY

Especially since sending some mons out in battle in Scarlet/Violet, if they are capable of flight, can have them fly in a battle

Like say, Fletching

[mighty storm]

six in double battles if it has a perrserker as an ally and there is rain/sun out

[bleak pine]

Caaaaat

[fading stratus]

i did try perrserker

steely spirit is like okay

alongside gholdengo

[vagrant steppe]

But you're running a worse slot for it

Perrserker has the same typing as Gambit

[fading stratus]

it also learns fake out so its funny

[vagrant steppe]

And 50% of the same typing as Incineroar

Who also has fake out

[fading stratus]

50% same?

its pure steel

[mighty storm]

PZA should bring skybattles back officially

[fading stratus]

also I never said it was good just okay

[bleak pine]

Would be neat

[vagrant steppe]

Oh I thought it was dark/steel

Speaking of dark/steel

Rate my new VGC team

[pseudo goblet]

Black and Red

[fading stratus]

torracat..........

i know its a joke but still

[vagrant steppe]

Wait I fixed it

[fading stratus]

flutter mane missing

[vagrant steppe]

The opponent isn't ready for 3 Incineroars and 2 kingambits

One of the Kingambits deals with mane

Actually Ogrepon answers that and Urshifu

[fading stratus]

also like why aguav berry lol

its just not worth over sitrus

[vagrant steppe]

I dunno, the sample set used it

I just copied the sample sets

[fading stratus]

nowadays common item is safety goggles anywah

also I'm a firm nonbeliever of AV gambit

I believe in swords dance

gambit just doesn't do enough damage otherwise

[vagrant steppe]

Fuck I should have given gambit 2 swords dance

I've got 2 of them for a reason

[pseudo goblet]

Hmm, a lot of ‘interesting’ outbreaks

J-Wooper
Gligar
Vaporeon

Buzzwole btw

[bleak pine]

I never knew I needed Warlord Guzma

[pseudo goblet]

What about Knight Diantha lmao

[bleak pine]

Perfect

I imagine Wikstrom must have made this suggestion for an outfit

[pseudo goblet]

He did show up training with her iirc

[bleak pine]

Ah!

[pseudo goblet]

Also, the idea is that kinda a role play, Hilda and Jasmine be rival royalties, Diantha and Guzma be rival generals

[bleak pine]

So basically, Fates

[pseudo goblet]

Eh?

[bleak pine]

Fire Emblem Fates, was thinking about Hoshido and Nohr

[pseudo goblet]

Ig

Ah, this image works better

Forgot to mention Diantha somehow has a Keldeo

[bleak pine]

That's Masters for ya

Suddenly, Legendary mons!

[pseudo goblet]

You would thought she gets a Cobalion, more knight looking

[bleak pine]

Possibly, but Keldeo is fine too

Here's hoping Lumiose City grows into a very prosperous city

[mighty storm]

I need more news about Pizza, at least gameplay or the starters

[bleak pine]

Agreed, Pizza is good

[pseudo goblet]

REdevelopment

So, Future Kalos

[bleak pine]

...So wait, would this be like, in the future?

[mighty storm]

redevelopment can happen in the past

but Im expecting future Kalos

[bleak pine]

I think it wasn't too clear when this'll be taking place, but I was thinking maybe the time period was like, maybe 1800's

Or something like that

[mighty storm]

oh and refound this old prozd skit

https://youtu.be/oXcNi97d-Mo

[bleak pine]

Y'know, it made you think why this was

I think it was to like, as the video would suggest, put on some mystery on who it could be, and eventually you meet the current head of development behind the storage PC

[mighty storm]

Bill: The guy most famous for being turned into a pokemon rather then inventing pokemon storage in PCs

[bleak pine]

But I think someone out there got pretty suspicious about logging into someone's PC, and someone they didn't know at that

Also yeah. Bill

Bill just can't catch a break!

I like how FireRed/LeafGreen gave him a little more relevancy

[pseudo goblet]

Hmm, no alt for Colress yet

[bleak pine]

Having a pal in the Sevii archipelago named Celio, helping him out with tech stuff, and eventually establishing internet connectivity between Kanto and Hoenn

[mighty storm]

Imagine if we see Colres in Pizza

[pseudo goblet]

Also btw, Colress may or may not be on Gladion’s bonk-list or something

[mighty storm]

His head looks like the quasar symbol

[bleak pine]

Even in an unknown time period, Colress still has science on the mind

Nevermind that he's probably stuck there!

[pseudo goblet]

In short, Gladion was looking after a Magearna- and Colress being Colress towards Magearna triggered Gladion

[bleak pine]

Ooh

[mighty storm]

Innnnteresting

[pseudo goblet]

Btw was this guy in DP or just BDSP?

[mighty storm]

in DP

[pseudo goblet]

Noted

[pseudo goblet]

So you re telling me he should team with Cyres

Similar names, similar themes, both weird ass set of minds

[bleak pine]

I do wonder why Riley and Lucario's sync power isn't Steel type

Would be a little more suitable for the guy who actually just owns Iron Island

[pseudo goblet]

Wait what

[bleak pine]

Yes, the actual island more or less is his

And he is very good friends with Byron, on top of that

[pseudo goblet]

Isn’t that where Roark work

Aha

[bleak pine]

Nah, that's the coal mines in Oreburgh city

[pseudo goblet]

Oh

[bleak pine]

Iron Island is where they dig up iron, and is an island off the coast of Canalave City

[pseudo goblet]

Jesus I need to play gen 1-6

[bleak pine]

Ehhh, well, BDSP is alright

It's not that great if memory serves, but it's pretty much the easiest way to experience Sinnoh

Good luck finding a copy of Platinum

[mighty storm]

Gen 6 was goated, sucks I can't play X cuz my 3DS is broken

[bleak pine]

Really, the most elusive games are still Heartgold/Soulsilver

Should be easy to experience the others

[pseudo goblet]

Btw, they basically gave Rosa a tourist guide job, but this alt always also look like flight attendant to me, which is perfect since this Rosa have Sky Shaymin

[bleak pine]

Surely you can't be serious?

[pseudo goblet]

Eh, kinda

Brock's was the first

This was just the first released via rolls

And technically, Red was probably the first ever unveiled

[mighty storm]

Is this the outfit Elesa used to woo Clay? Cuz hot damn!

[pseudo goblet]

Oddly enough that’s her only alt, outside of her 2 outfits from BW and BW2

[pseudo goblet]

Lusamine for me

[fading stratus]

before that wheezing roaring moon was actually a legit balance strat

[bleak pine]

Well, that's interesting

A bunch of Wii peripherals made in the shape of what I can assume to be Lugia

[waxen moat]

Looks like an art exhibition and there's a workshop to paint your own pokeball

[mighty storm]

interesting

[fading stratus]

lmao

its brick break i'd assume

[outer eagle]

could also be karate chop ig

[pseudo goblet]

I mean, I did say Rock and Smash lol

I’ll admit I don’t know the move used here

[fading stratus]

the thing is furret doesn't learn rock smash

or karate chop for that matter

[harsh path]

If Furret did

The Rock would be Smashed because Furret asked very nicely

Honestly I need more Wooper being able to learn the Elemental Punches despite not having arms level examples of strange movepool choices/exclusions

[tacit sphinx]

Steel Wing Beheeyem

[fading stratus]

wtf

it learns steel wing??????

?????

it can fly

and it is from an ufo

which is kinda steel

therefore

my logic is flawless

[tacit sphinx]

Because only five legendaries were introduced in GSC and intragenerational additions weren’t a thing yet

Entei, Raikou and Suicune, and Lugia and Ho-Oh

Celebi’s a mythical so they didn’t want to pick her

I'd remember her if she played like a role in the game

except just "omg my marill ran away"

[pseudo goblet]

Whose this then

[fading stratus]

lyra?

[pseudo goblet]

⭕️

So you remember Lyra and Ethan but not Kris lol

[fading stratus]

oh yeah its lyra who's like "my marill ran away" too not kris

BECAUSE KRIS EXISTS IN A SINGLE (1) GAME

[outer eagle]

we doing pokemon trivia

same for Lyra tbf

[fading stratus]

pokemon sygnia suit trivia yeha

[outer eagle]

it's just that HGSS is the de facto Johto game

so people will recognize Lyra more

[fading stratus]

idk why they replaced kris

[pseudo goblet]

Still waiting for Sabrina to get her Johto outfit alt

[fading stratus]

show me leaf sygnia suit

[pseudo goblet]

No hat ig

[pseudo goblet]

JUST the sygna suit?

[fading stratus]

which is the better one

[pseudo goblet]

Oh wait I remember the design now, ugh

[fading stratus]

wdym no hat

she has a hat

[mighty storm]

thats just a normal grimer with some nacho cheese

[pseudo goblet]

Oh you re right lmfao

[pseudo goblet]

Finally got to it

The one that look like she going camping is the sygna

Other girls gets pretty dress for their sygna suit, but Leaf back then, thank god for Neo Champion outfit, god

[fading stratus]

bulbasaur sygna?

[pseudo goblet]

Venu

[fading stratus]

I mean that's the best costume of the 3

[mighty storm]

But jokes aside, its funny how the thing to look out for when shiny hunting alolan grimer (at least in scarlet/violet) is to keep your eye out for a kanto-ish grimer

[pseudo goblet]

Oh yeah true lol

[pseudo goblet]

Just to finish Lyra’s set of alts

She use a Phanpy for the Team Rocket alt

[fading stratus]

I knew lyra was a snitch

that bitch

[mighty storm]

https://www.serebii.net/Shiny/SM/089-a.png

and alolan muk is the same way

[fading stratus]

what about hilda zane
I used to have a pretty crush on hilda when I was a kid

[pseudo goblet]

The funny thing is that this one was pretty good lmfao

[mighty storm]

but the multiple colors isnt as obvious

[pseudo goblet]

Then again, she’s with Maxie Groudon, and Groudon is basically ‘I wanna be dumb today, easy kill enemy go brrrr’

[fading stratus]

groudon is good until you miss precipes blades

[pseudo goblet]

Wahaha

[pseudo goblet]

Last two from Google cause I don’t have her 💀

[fading stratus]

none are better sadly

[pseudo goblet]

Her Pokémon are- left to right

Tepig> Emboar
Non-shiny Diancie
Victini
SHINY Grapploct

[fading stratus]

in regular play it'd be bonkers idk what the last line is saying tho

[pseudo goblet]

Basically boost damage, idk either lmao

[fading stratus]

vro you play the game

[pseudo goblet]

Masters is pretty brain dead UNTIL you playing the actual hard levels

[fading stratus]

how p2w is masters

[pseudo goblet]

A pretty meh game that is

[pseudo goblet]

I wanna say ‘Very’ if you want to catch up to current standards of top difficulty 💀

I’m only holding myself back not boosting everything with items

I can basically have max level on all of my units if I ever want to

[fading stratus]

ah

[pseudo goblet]

Although like, you can still f2p, just have to play daily for gems, items, tickets especially for newbies

Get enough of these and you get free 5 stars

[fading stratus]

what mons does the mc get

[pseudo goblet]

Main characters?

Oh or you meant the player, as in ourselves?

[fading stratus]

yes

[pseudo goblet]

Dont worry about the blanks, afaik you can’t get the other once you picked one

Wait I seriously picked Charmander over Bulbasaur? Wtf me

Iirc this when the egg feature added- pretty bad feature btw, also before I had Red&Charizard

Also honestly, rn the Fire type units are pretty good, like, any Fire striker units can more or less get you pretty far

Fucking hell that’s a lot of Flareon

And Arcanine- wth

[fading stratus]

do mons evolve

[pseudo goblet]

A few, but rn that like, an old feature that developers ditched it later on even tho it still exists

Also like, they aren’t exactly the top tier units- except maybe Lyra&Meganium, but only because Light screen lmao

Wait Brendan&Sceptile was for evo too??? Okay I take it back, a few of them ARE good

[pseudo goblet]

Sidenote, pretty sure he was my first ever 5 star, long time ago

And for that reason, saying in a sad twisted way*

THE AMOUNT OF TIME I GET HIM AS REPEATS, FUCK!!!!!

@fading stratus @mighty storm btw, did we ever see her design in this type of scale?

[fading stratus]

is that mfing hex maniac

[pseudo goblet]

Like, all I can remember is the overworld chibi style

[pseudo goblet]

Yep

[pseudo goblet]

I like this emote she has lol

Not so much for the other

[mighty storm]

I dont think we have until masters ex

[pseudo goblet]

Oooooh I know, @fading stratus rate these 5 Masters EX exclusive character

[fading stratus]

only good one is the goth lady

that fourth one isnt even new character its just trip

[pseudo goblet]

Lear, Prince, guy who created Pasio(the region), usual bad person rival turn great person after story

Rachel, the goth lady lol, Lear’s servant and friend

Sawyer, Lear’s servant and friend

Paulo, the rival who needed therapy for a while

Tina, Paulo’s childhood friend

[fading stratus]

Paulo is just trip

also i thought the first guy was a evil team leader lol

with that hairstyle

[pseudo goblet]

Guess what, Paulo technically is the evil team leader

I did say he needed therapy

‘Sort of’ borrow/stole Lear’s childhood friend Hoopa(yes the Pokemon) and made it Unbound by sheer will, gave the disbanded Masters’s evil team legendary pokemons through Hoopa and wrecking the other evil team

All because he went extreme for his good goal

[fading stratus]

I could actually

@spice rivet next format is restricted lol

not sure if single restricted or double yet tho

they revealed the poster of JP championship

[maiden flax]

Oh yeah I completely forgot about the masters evil team
What ever happened to them?

[fading stratus]

they got therapy apparently

[pseudo goblet]

for their fashion sense, yes

literally, just salty civilian in a mask, Team Break

[maiden flax]

Honestly they were so forgettable that I remembered the whole rainbow rocket plot line more than them XD

[pseudo goblet]

And yall thought Team Star fashion was bad lmao

[fading stratus]

that hiker looks spot on

[pseudo goblet]

iirc, the Team Break member that was with Paulo ended up betray him and follow Giovanni

in short, Giovanni was the top villain even after all these years, even Ghetsis was second

Maxie and Archie was legitmately pretty wholesome, not to each other but they care for their followers

[fading stratus]

rainbow rocket just ruins giovanni's redemption

[pseudo goblet]

Alternate universe lets say

[pseudo goblet]

Cyres was hit or miss in Masters for me

[fading stratus]

oh yeah i forgot is palkia in game yet zane

in scarlet violet

[pseudo goblet]

He kinda bonded with Sophocles, I guess he saw his younger self in him? Something about Rotom, and apparently the world he WANTED, was eternally sleeping in Darkrai’s power or something

[pseudo goblet]

Scarlet what???

[fading stratus]

is palkia in the game

[pseudo goblet]

If you meant Masters, yeah Palkia’s with Cyres

[fading stratus]

[pseudo goblet]

Palkia and Dialga event was couple months ago tho? SV

[fading stratus]

I was just asking for sv yes

I forgot if they were in

[pseudo goblet]

Game was kind enough to give players their personal item after capture

[vagrant steppe]

Ya know what pokemon mobile game I miss?

Duel was fun as hell

[golden lance]

Duel was very fun but the monetization was sadly terrible

And the figure balancing was very iffy sometimes

[vagrant steppe]

But it had a decent bit of f2p content

[latent sleet]

only real ones played magikarp jump

[fading stratus]

magikarp jump is peak

[pseudo goblet]

Magikarp Jump was nice

[spice rivet]

So many manips

I never want to hear my Chatot crys ever again

All of these can totally beat humans

In fairness to Aipom, question for all, it basically has three arms, are you confident you can beat something with extra hand than you

Also, yeah seeing Fini groups with the other three Tapus, pretty sure I won’t survive 💀

[fading stratus]

wow one of the worst choices

there are like 9 or 10 choices better than it

[outer eagle]

why are Aipom and Sableye even here

[fading stratus]

@fading stratus it’s gonna take a long time for Paldea lmao

[fading stratus]

hope they give Ohara Aliquis and Hohma in the game

[pseudo goblet]

Who?

[fading stratus]

who indeed

[pseudo goblet]

Oh Paldean wind lmfao

Still need to watch the eng sub version

[fading stratus]

[pseudo goblet]

Found the Japanese version first okay

[fading stratus]

their names are same in japanese....

[pseudo goblet]

That part I forgot

[pseudo goblet]

Btw, did they ever gave Katy(bug gym leader) a proper team?

Trying to figure out the Pokémon that would partner with Paldea trainers when they get in Masters

[mighty storm]

ooh Tapu Fini

[placid junco]

She has one in her postgame rematch

[fading stratus]

she has heracross, ursaring, foretress, kamen rider, wool ball bug and uhh spider

[pseudo goblet]

That you fight lol

[pseudo goblet]

Mm, 4 of those would have to work

Other two are the Johto bugs

[fading stratus]

heracross ursaring and foretress are johto

[pseudo goblet]

That why I added ‘bugs’ at the end lol

[fading stratus]

ursaring is also tera bug

so johto bug

[pseudo goblet]

Ursaring im expecting them somehow import Tera into Masters so

Part of me also not really cause like, they skipped Z move even after all these years

[fading stratus]

what about being big and fat

[pseudo goblet]

What about them?

[fading stratus]

have they imported

[pseudo goblet]

Oh Dynamax lmao

Yeah they added, it’s just generic nuke attack with cutscenes

[fading stratus]

lol

[pseudo goblet]

Larry is pretty easy, maybe?

I really wanna say Staraptor, but if they feel like it they would go for Dudunsparce

Oh god Larry might annoy the Character-theme feature lmao

Idk if there are others having both Gym Leader theme and Elite Four theme at once

[pseudo goblet]

Sidenote, I did not know Jasmine like Contest, also what is this Pokeathlete anyway???

[fading stratus]

Pokeathalon is the olympic thingy in Johto games

[pseudo goblet]

Honestly, feels kinda wrong calling Silver a champion, even if it applies to Master

[fading stratus]

only in HGSS

[pseudo goblet]

I was gonna ask that lol

So Maylene somehow cameo herself participating? She also has the tag

[mighty storm]

Oh wait I have to fight Tapu Fini 😱

[pseudo goblet]

Same fate here 💀

Also, @fading stratus @bleak pine help, im starting to like this lil guy

[fading stratus]

clark kent is different

‘Namiiruka’ mf that’s just ‘Sea Dophin’ as a name for Finizen

[fading stratus]

palafin is also just Dolphin Man

Finizen 💖

how is Zero to Hero triggered in anime

[pseudo goblet]

They haven’t show yet where I’m at in the episode

God, way to describe people who likes Trubbish, weirdos

[fading stratus]

Fuck Irukaman our hero is Trubbishman

[pseudo goblet]

also btw, people really been likely Liko's swimwear design for the past few days

THAT EASILY?!?! TF

Shameless plug to Pokemon Snap, I see what you did Pokemon lol

[fading stratus]

snap is peak

[pseudo goblet]

Another ultraman reference

Ohh, Palafin able to read minds, actually understands too, it appears to like Liko that she understand its privacy

[fading stratus]

how do they trigger zero to hero

[pseudo goblet]

did twice now, so far just, swimming really fast and cut to hero form, also wtf

[pseudo goblet]

SPEAKING OF

[fading stratus]

that's not king crab that's emperor crab

i heard bigger crabs taste less tasty

so kwalf probably tastes bad

[pseudo goblet]

dang, they keep saying they re heading to Paldea, but lately each episodes is just about Paldea pokemons

[fading stratus]

gotta give paldean mons some time

[pseudo goblet]

something Journeys shouldve done for Galar pokemon

my poor baby Centiskorch waited so long for thx to Kabu, in Horizon

[fading stratus]

atleast orbeetle doesn't die to a rock throw

or lose 50% to rocks

[pseudo goblet]

Okay I’ve come to a conclusion, Palafin can just do the transformation AS LONG it’s out of screen, in universe or irl

[fading stratus]

understandable

[pseudo goblet]

Really wish Loki get to catch it

[fading stratus]

i forgot did i ever tell you palafin is one of my fav mons from paldea

so I had it in the team that I recommeneded you for dlc2

[pseudo goblet]

oh right, I changed back to Flip turn, easier 'for me' to use lmao

[pseudo goblet]

spreading the love I see

[fading stratus]

I tried flip turn and it wasn't really great in an actual competitive setting

a lot of people thought the same

but its fine in ingame

not like you're playing against competitive teams

[pseudo goblet]

also, WHAT

My man! how many neat water types do you have in secret?!

[fading stratus]

sharpedo is fine

they made sharpedo a physical water dark type in gen 3

that's peak comey right there

[mighty storm]

Ah yes, two special types in gen 3 on a physical attacker

[pseudo goblet]

wtf

thats worse than Blaziken

[mighty storm]

OH that reminds me, carvanna may be in PZA

[fading stratus]

they'll probably have all megas

[mighty storm]

https://tenor.com/view/slowpoke-pokemon-water-psychic-gif-7898046

yup exactly

[fading stratus]

wonder if we will have megas in gen 10 and not just pizza

[pseudo goblet]

this here, ladies and gents, is how you park your shark

[fading stratus]

surely they'll let you import megas from pizza onto gen 10 right

[fading stratus]

no way its called samehada

[pseudo goblet]

whats the joke, I know Same is Shark lol

[fading stratus]

its a sword from naruto

[mighty storm]

I would love it if megas just were a thing in gen 10 again and pizza is just a reintroduction back to them

[pseudo goblet]

Ah, same time era maybe

[fading stratus]

this is samehada

[pseudo goblet]

most likely to be actual japanese lore

the name

[fading stratus]

I'd love to play with megas again on a mainline game

oh its just subtitle mistake

because Sharpedo is called Samehader

[mighty storm]

One idea I saw for pza is that it may give us more battle bond mons

[fading stratus]

battle bond is nuked for good

[pseudo goblet]

dont worry, it is Samehada in vocal lol

[mighty storm]

Since its clear the scrapped "Z" version was gonna expand upon it, but in the end they only gave us Ash Greninja

[fading stratus]

they nuked battle bond this gen they're not going back

[pseudo goblet]

Thats it, this ep is fucking nuts

[mighty storm]

oof

[fading stratus]

yeah this

[pseudo goblet]

also another Ultraman reference with the Color Timer noise

Welp @fading stratus, Only Liko get to see the transformation

[fading stratus]

sadly you're not liko so we won't know about it

[pseudo goblet]

guess its enough already that we now know Zero to Hero works in the wild

@waxen moat Nuts episode, but good for Ultraman fans 😂

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/family-guy-peter-griffin-family-guy-peter-perhaps-peter-perhaps-gif-24813812

I certainly have a lot of shinies in Scarlet to choose for that purpose

[pseudo goblet]

Not sure how to feel, that I’ve gotten more shinies than I did compared to my other games

[mighty storm]

the shinies do love them sandwiches

[pseudo goblet]

Yeah, tho Id still say SOS requires less thinking-power, Sandwich is pretty quick to get shinies

Also me getting myself to play Scarlet more helps getting more random shinies lol

[pseudo goblet]

Would be hard to name it tho, not sure I know names for pink electric baby boy

Who is a dragon

[mighty storm]

Edison was my mareep on my second regular playthrough (which I still need to finish) before Dolly my shiny mareep took his place

[pseudo goblet]

For the record, Ampharos always been a dragon since gen 2, kinda

Japanese name is Denryu, literally Electric Dragon, it’s also a pun Denryu sounds like electrical current

That Corviknight was +6 Defense too so I wouldve lost without that crit lmao

[fading stratus]

sometimes you just play towards the out

it might be crit here and you got it

[spice rivet]

Ya, but I absolutely know if I was on the receiving end Id be big mad. But ya, sometimes you just get the out

In general I shouldve conserved my RS Urshifu better for sure.

But otherwise I also did this

[fading stratus]

what team are you on?

wolfe?

oh not wolfe ofc you have metagross

tbh idt metagross is that good either

[spice rivet]

No Im still on the Raging Bolt team

[fading stratus]

feel like I'd play gambit if I needed a steel type

helping hand on incin feels like a crime

since the space is so tight

you have like 6 other moves you wanna play before it

[spice rivet]

Ya, its a cute BO1 gimmick for sure

Honestly, the meta shifts in general have been favourable to the team. However if I had time/wanted to go hard on the grind to be more serious rn Id def build something new

[fading stratus]

why not play the articuno team

we have a rental iirc

[spice rivet]

I might have to give it a go soon

[fading stratus]

we also have a rental for toler webb's team iirc

[spice rivet]

Ive also been focusing a lot of my pokemon time on maniping Shinys from older games, mainly legendaries just so I have them for when we get the restricted format

[fading stratus]

yeah here
https://pokepast.es/3675d96625ad0b36

[fading stratus]

when?

next format is restricted

in like 3 months

or was it 2

[spice rivet]

I know, but I wanted to be safe since the 3DS servers are going down soon and even if TPCi says Bank ismt going down yet, Id rather be safe than sorry

[fading stratus]

ah

wonder if next format is single or double restricted tho

[spice rivet]

Iirc April is when 3DS servers are going down, and Bank will be open until either they announce the closure or if the servers fail and then theyll just not be restored

[fading stratus]

ye its april

[spice rivet]

Honestly, this is def my number 1 question. Mirai/Korai will probs be top of the pack either way to set up the other paradoxs

[fading stratus]

shadow rider

is huge

especially with chi yu

best ghost immunity in the format is a mfing long neck

[spice rivet]

Ya thats true too

[fading stratus]

I could see kyogre too

since its slower than koraidon you get your rain after sun

and you can spam thunder in their electric terrain

[mighty storm]

sucks I wont be able to fix my 3DS any time soon, my level 1 dialga is gonna be stuck in Ultra Sun

[fading stratus]

fix it quick

smh

still laughing about this

also pizza pokemon when?

[bleak pine]

Argh now I want some pizza now

[pseudo goblet]

Gonna be me soon

[mighty storm]

Concept for a pizza pokemon: First form is a single floating slice (fire/ghost type) and then the evolution is a floating pepperoni pizza with the pepperoni shaped like that one scary face animation.

[pseudo goblet]

Normal Fairy would work for me, seeing it could be made from Milktank and Fidough

[mighty storm]

regional variant for it

debut gen it's a very hot ghostly pizza, in another region it's a normal/fairy type (explains the floating cuz fairy magic) that is cheese pizza

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/pokemon/images/b/ba/Scary_Face_III.png/revision/latest?cb=20180519134548

this face is the evolution's face

[bleak pine]

Scary!

[tacit sphinx]

this is just pizzaface from pizza tower

[bleak pine]

I was thinking of like

...I guess that one sentient pizza pie in Jimmy Neutron

I remember something like that

[pseudo goblet]

Mmm, there’s some hidden away childhood mess

[bleak pine]

Yeah, that's the one!

Man, Jimmy Neutron really had a bunch of weird one-off villains

Even though I think this episode was all just a weird dream said pizza-monster was having

Shout-outs to evil pants

[bleak pine]

Hugh really is the best part of the series

[mighty storm]

oh yeah symph down to rush duel real quick?

[bleak pine]

Sure!

[fading stratus]

you sure that's not supposed to be bundle

or is that a joke

[vagrant steppe]

Didn't have the budget for bundle

Fuck, forgot to post my vgc team

Posted

[fading stratus]

lol

ditto is unironically cracked next format

or post worlds format

depending on if next format is single or double restricted

aguav berry such a bad item

also just play MFING BLACK GLASSES GAMBIT

[vagrant steppe]

No

[fading stratus]

I don't really think non boosted gambit does enough damage tbh

same with booster speed flutter

but booster speed flutter is good because its a great speed control mon that also dishes out decent damage

[golden lance]

Bro really looked at the 5 usable moves and said "i'll cut swords dance"

[vagrant steppe]

You don't swords dance in doubles

Well Gambit doesn't

[fading stratus]

gambit does...........

what are you on

gambit literally plays 2 dark moves swords dance protect

https://pokepast.es/e045d8b7f0efaa97
this is the most recent gambit top 8

knoxville 2nd place

[vagrant steppe]

Oh lmao I just copied the default sets

I wasn't gonna actually go in-depth for this shitpost

[fading stratus]

[fading stratus]

atleast don't say wrong things

when swords dance is the most common set byfar

[vagrant steppe]

Lmao I guess they just didn't at the time then?

The smogon sets are like 2 regulations ago

[fading stratus]

smogon sets aren't really that correct from what I've seen atleast for vgc

probably because vgc formats change like decently fast

like we went from leftovers to safety googles to assault vest raging bolt in like 2 months

[vagrant steppe]

Gotcha

Whenever the article was written, they didn't use Swords Dance

[fading stratus]

We've had swords dance gambit this whole season

[kind hedge]

Someone I know came up with this new fun-mat and I wanted to know y’all’s opinions on it

It’s mean to be like GLC but playable on PTCGL so it’s in the standard format

[kind vortex]

rule box just means ex and whatnot, right?

very clearly inspired by glc, looks fun enough at a glance

[kind hedge]

Yes

[golden lance]

#1020932971106140221 would probably have a better audience for this

Why is she using a snorkel?

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GIXMpbCbYAAgWs8?format=jpg&name=medium

She's fully submerged in water, what is the purpose

@pseudo goblet

[pseudo goblet]

How would I know, never swam in my life

[fading stratus]

swimming is a myth

[pseudo goblet]

Also yeah I never understood how Snorkels work, even tho my previous job sells them

Like, clearly they have limits, so idk why people use them so much

[mighty storm]

It be one thing if she had an air tank, but she isn't. Girl is just straight up holding her breath basically

[pseudo goblet]

Tbf iirc the beach they re in isn’t THAT deep

Also they do have Ludlow watching them

Yet another reminder that Ludlow’s Quagsire is stronk

[mighty storm]

Quagsire

https://tenor.com/view/ludlow-pokémon-horizons-transformation-mighty-g-flex-gif-12193096223717939249

Fuck, Ludlow’s first gif in discord and it’s this 😂😂😂

@fading stratus

[fading stratus]

LMAO

[pseudo goblet]

God i fucking love Rising Voltacklers crew

[inland gyro]

they're cheap

essentially its just for people wanting to just look underwater for extended periods but not going deep, i honestly feel they're a bit of a scam as the depth they're effective you may as well just be going in and out

[pseudo goblet]

Call me ‘uninsightful’ but rm 25 for a silly mask doesn’t seems cheap

[inland gyro]

bruh your shop is overcharging

[pseudo goblet]

That’s Malaysia for ya

[inland gyro]

is that in a tourist location?

[pseudo goblet]

Nope, online stores warehouse

Let me check on them

[inland gyro]

like sell directly to someone or other businesses?

[pseudo goblet]

Basically Amazon or EBay

Also wtf 💀

[inland gyro]

is it in bulk?

[pseudo goblet]

Bruh I rather buy Pokémon merch than this…

[inland gyro]

that comes to £7.50 which tbh isn't surprising

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-pokemon-horizons-liko-mollie-mollie-pokemon-gif-10051861811622673723

Oh cool Mollie got a gif now too

Nothing new for Liko, Roy and Friede, ‘nothing’ period for Murdock

wtf man all the crew member got one except for the wholesome man, CMON

[pseudo goblet]

Key word?

[fading stratus]

[pseudo goblet]

Also omg Rockruff

[fading stratus]

[pseudo goblet]

Figures

Hang on, doesn’t Shellders like, clamp hard on its victim, dang Murdock is strong

[fading stratus]

[pseudo goblet]

Dawn form for Rockruff lol

[fading stratus]

where's Quarter day form quarter to day form

[pseudo goblet]

Lycanroc Eclipse

[pseudo goblet]

Oh, right question, any build recommends for Archaludon and Hydrapple? Pokedex still needs them, I might as well make them decent

[fading stratus]

Assault vest 4 attacking moves for archaludon

or iron defense body press lefties

you probably just play regen lefties for hydrapple but not sure because I have never used hydrapple
