[violet pawn]

this is sick

[marsh silo]

Not Bellibolt and we have a deal

[hollow creek]

actually dhelmise has zero body potential 🤓

[frigid anvil]

I don't get why people get so unfathomably angry over a reveal tho, it's not the Pokemon u wanted bit that doesn't automatically make it bad, some mfs need to learn patience

[surreal chasm]

I was happy with anything else up to it 🤷‍♀️

[inland jewel]

It’s because blitz Pokémon are adding unique stuff to the game and/or are the Dev’s favorites

[stuck cave]

Dhelmise
⚓
Good

[fallen loom]

5 most common types (percentage wise):
Dragon Types
Ghost Types
Steel Types
Ground Types
Poison Types

[fleet hull]

No deal then I require peak Pokémon inclusion

[inland jewel]

Dhelmise adds steelworker, gourgeist doesn’t add anything new

[surreal chasm]

Ok yeah this is awesome but any Magcargo fusion is by default lmao

[marsh silo]

Literally the most unholy abomination that escaped the eternal abyss

[white meadow]

water isn't one of them?

[sharp nebula]

trick or treat tho, its the best move

[fallen loom]

no

[fleet hull]

Tell that to the atom bomb in your doorstep

[white meadow]

oh dang

[fallen loom]

Water is 6th rarest

[marsh silo]

Wait, what do you mea-

[hollow creek]

steelworker and anchor shot which traps pokemon so with a faster pokemon like electrode or scolipede with speed boost it functions like diglett

[violet pawn]

it shows how dhelmise can be used as a body though

[idle prairie]

There's also the Gengar/Dhelmise fusion

[fleet hull]

There really isn’t a valid reason to complain about any Pokémon being in the game, even the ones that are lackluster

[dull root]

Disagree: (To be clear I have nothing against this sprite. It's just not spectacular)

[surreal chasm]

...As an anchor.

[marsh silo]

Now on a more serious note, I think the tapus would be very fun to use for fusions, not only for terrain but they have really cool designs too

[violet pawn]

yep👍

[fleet hull]

I think tapus are near and good for gameplay but there are legends id pick over them due to bias

[violet pawn]

what I mean that it can work, despite people saying it can't

[marsh silo]

Yeah, fair. I'd also pick others

[hollow creek]

My only disagreement with that is they all have very similar bodies

[sterile spoke]

It's actually not about equal amounts, but making them proportionate to how the official types are distributed. 😛

[hollow creek]

although id rather more mythicals then legendaries cause mythicals you could maybe find in a non crazy randomizer game

[marsh silo]

Mods, can you add SploinkyBloingy into the game? K thanks

[lofty spindle]

You know, besides new Pokémon, I wonder if new moves will be added.

I love Body Press and would love to see it.

[dull root]

And? Is Pikachu bad because all it is is a mouse? Dhelmise just needs lots of creativity (Unfortunately lol)

[marsh silo]

Don't think gen 8 moves will be added

[dull root]

Huh, fair

[marsh silo]

that's the fun part, gotta give yourself a challenge from time to time

[lofty spindle]

Fighting and Dark are missing... Scrafty time?

[fleet hull]

Why are people even complaining anyways it’s not like it’s gonna get removed

[inland jewel]

Scrafty or Pangoro

[white meadow]

would rather get pangoro because scrappy

[mystic crystal]

Pangoro line We just got Bewear but now we can get the bear triple fusion

[fleet hull]

Pangoro would beat heater but gangster Pokémon would be hilarious

[idle prairie]

How is Aegislash used as the body in fusions

[inland jewel]

It’s because it in and not their favorite mon

[stuck cave]

Pangoro pls and thank you

[dull root]

People on the internet like complaining . really though, most of it is venting I think

[hollow creek]

I like scrafty more

[white meadow]

amogus?!?!??!

[marsh silo]

Scrafty would be awesome to do fusions with mainly with the hooded hide idea behind it

[hollow creek]

I was never a fan of pangoro

[fleet hull]

If scrafty gets added every sprite should be that one gangster SpongeBob meme where he’s holding the money

[marsh silo]

Pangoro would also be cool to do fusions with mainly because of its Bancho theme, that's about it

[misty fable]

https://tenor.com/view/dies-of-death-gif-23505693

[wintry imp]

Not sure if this is the right channel for it, but once the game is updated to include all the new pokemon, will we be getting a bonus sprite pack?

[dull root]

Tbf Aegislash and prevos have been given the ability to be whatever weapon they want. If Dhelmise does that then it's just goint to be a weird Aegislash fusion

[high haven]

Probably

[fleet hull]

Minior is another Pokémon I can easily see being part of the blitz

[marsh silo]

Ok, that is something I can get behind, Minior would go CRAZY for fusions

[white meadow]

yeah im gonna vote it now fr

[idle prairie]

But you see my point, Dhelmise is an achor, Aegislash is a sword and shield

[stuck cave]

https://tenor.com/view/plant-gay-gif-22767496

[surreal chasm]

It's used as any Melee weapon you can think of

[sterile spoke]

Vote for it where? 😮

[hollow creek]

if i win that trevenant raffle im choosing minior 🤝

[clever atlas]

I am once again reminding you of today's reveal

[misty fable]

Counterpoint: I don’t like it >:(

[surreal chasm]

I am once again reminding you of today's reveal
https://tenor.com/view/palossand-sandygast-alola-anime-pokemon-gif-4748817582716906081

[lofty spindle]

Do you think we'd get all forms?

[clever atlas]

Yeah, if oricorio can get em

[wintry imp]

Sounds like a you problem personally

[glass quail]

Please please please give us malamar or cherrim

easy access to contrary would be amazing

[sharp nebula]

so you want lurantis too?

[dull root]

Minior is in a weird place, because it would almost certainly be locked to one colour in IF

[surreal cradle]

WOOOOOO DHELMISE WOOOOOOOO
HELL YEAH

NOW JUST GIMME CRAWDAUNT AND GOLISOPOD AND I'LL BE HAPPY

[surreal chasm]

But all the oricorio forms have different typings whereas Lycanroc's forms are all just rock type

[sterile spoke]

I've started getting to work on some Blitz sprites. 😄

[stuck cave]

Cherrim:

• Cute
• Flower
• Cheery form and gloomy form
• FLOWER GIFT

[glass quail]

Malamar is the only pokemon with contrary as a NON hidden ability

[clever atlas]

But different stats

[idle prairie]

It's most often used as a sword and shield. It occasionally is used as something else, but majority of aegislash body fusions feature it as the sword in the style of a different pokemon

[wintry imp]

@sterile spoke since you're here do you have an answer to this?

A ☕ for your time

[glass quail]

that has contrary as hidden ability malamar is regular

[finite thistle]

It is strange that water is somehow not on this list

[sterile spoke]

Why would there be a bonus Sprite Pack? 😮

[surreal chasm]

It's still very versatile.
How many different variations of anchors can you possibly base designs of of

[wintry imp]

So that there are custom sprites for some of the new fusions, i woulf assume

[sterile spoke]

They'll just wait until the next one. 🙂

[high haven]

I have confidence in Zangoose & Seviper

[wintry imp]

No problem then

[sterile spoke]

All the existing ones are already being collated. 😄

[idle prairie]

I'm going to say a lot because there's plenty of spriters doing their thing

[sterile spoke]

I imagine.

[clever atlas]

Woulf

[wintry imp]

Eh, i could live without it

[frank oxide]

no

[high haven]

Which Mon?

[frank oxide]

blaquaza sent in #1158116901701034134

[wintry imp]

Remember - Dhelmise is the seaweed not the anchor.

Also I was talking about Lycanrock

[clever atlas]

NOOOOOO

[hollow creek]

wait what

[wintry imp]

I'm pretty sure i remember hearing somewhere that Dhelmise is the seaweed not the anchor

[fleet hull]

That’s true yes

[high haven]

Yeah same here with Lycanrock. It's not all too interesting to me

[dull root]

To clarify. Convetion is to use the seaweed in head fusions. Thus the wheel/anchor are the only things left to use for body

[graceful torrent]

The seaweed is the doctor which makes the anchor frankenstein’s monster

[fleet hull]

I’m also not big on lycanroc it’s really just another dog

[graceful torrent]

It’s a cool rock dog

[proud lion]

https://tenor.com/view/dusk-lycanroc-red-eyes-anime-angry-gif-23618765

[ruby breach]

I like the dark type lycanroc but the other ones are generic

[high haven]

It has three forms and two of them are he exact same

[surreal chasm]

It's not even dark type lol

[wintry imp]

I'd be happy if Lycanrock got in purely because it would make my partner happy.

I don't really care otherwise

[ruby breach]

Oh that's even worse then lol

[clever atlas]

It's the first Speedy rock type since aerodactyl

[wintry imp]

NOW MINIOR ON THE OTHER HAND

[fleet hull]

Minior fills that niche too

[ruby breach]

https://tenor.com/view/lycanroc-pokemon-gif-10008074

[fleet hull]

If we do get another dog I’d rather it be Furfrou since it has a unique concept for fusions

+Furfrou adds a really good ability

[clever atlas]

But does minior have a Puppy preevolution?

[finite thistle]

Minior is crazy, the ability alone on slightly better typing or stats is insane. It feels like a prototype salt man in some ways

[fleet hull]

It can when fused with Growlithe 👍

[hollow creek]

I only care about minior's potential for really cool glowy fusions

[wintry imp]

I couldn't care less

[clever atlas]

Skill issue

[wintry imp]

Sounds like a you problem

[clever atlas]

Yall hating

[hollow creek]

minior has cute body fusion potential too

[wintry imp]

It's not hate.

Hate suggests i care

[high haven]

At first I was against Frufru but only because I didn't understand it, but than I actually took the time to think about it and than realized that Frufru is actually a good Mon for fusions

[hollow creek]

we're probably getting something completely different today like spheal

[marsh silo]

But wait, what if you made a Minior/Eevee. Star Pupper

[cold fog]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-anipoke-furfrou-anime-xy-gif-4035365679965355782

[eternal wigeon]

Hats

[surreal chasm]

The sand castle needs to take revenge on Noivern

[inland jewel]

Hairstyles

[cold fog]

Imagine a dapper Furfrou fusion with anyone with this good boy ❤️

[wintry imp]

Minior/Snorlax would be a fucking WALL

[surreal chasm]

It would be a WHAT

[hollow creek]

hot take i would actually love turtonator in IF

[fleet hull]

I wouldn’t 👍

[inland jewel]

I would

[wintry imp]

Not literally lol. But it would be incredibly tanky and immune to status effects

[clever atlas]

It could be cool, yeah

[inland jewel]

We need more dragons

[dull root]

Because we were talking about the viability of Dhelmise bodies:

[high haven]

I would if we didn't already have 9 mons of the dragon type joining us

[surreal chasm]

Turtanator is the cooler Torkoal so yeah

[cold fog]

I would love ANY Pokémon to be added. Except the Elemental Monkeys. ANYTHING but the Elemental Monkeys.

[wintry imp]

Somebody get this man/woman a Jangmo-o

[graceful torrent]

Turtonator does not have drought so he IS MID

[wintry imp]

Oh yea screw them

[inland jewel]

Jokes on you Kommo-o is my favorite Psuedo

[fleet hull]

I really want the elemental mobiles just to watch people cry about them

[white meadow]

elemental mobiles 🔥

[hollow creek]

Im pretty sure i didnt vote turtonator so high but looking back i thing he'd be cool

[wintry imp]

I... wasn't joking lmao

[surreal chasm]

You could fuse it with a pokemon who does

[lost blade]

can we get some casteliacones here

[fleet hull]

But ninetale stinky

[idle prairie]

That's a good one, and so is this

[white meadow]

hey ninetales isn't bad!

[ruby breach]

Give us Sawk so we can have some squidward looking abominations

[cold fog]

Vanillite line is low-key one of my hopes. Ice Cream for everyone! ❤️

[white meadow]

well i like the alolan form more but the kanto one is cool too

[stuck cave]

That's a Bold and Brash take

[lost blade]

Fellow Cone Lover

[hollow creek]

sawk and throh would make cool fusions with their robes and weird face patterns

[white meadow]

sawk/slugma fusion 🔥

wait nvm it would be half of the name

[ruby breach]

Krakatoa

[cold fog]

Or they would be the everlasting ends of Bert and Ernie joke sprites.

[high haven]

More like "belongs in the trash!"

[white meadow]

nvm^2 it would still work, sagma 🔥

[finite thistle]

Dang, that looks good

[ruby breach]

I lowkey want mesprit because it bears a very close resemblance to my favourite honkai character but I don't think anyone would make a reference sprite of it anyway

[high haven]

Which one is that

[dull root]

Thank @ Please let Cascoon Get In, They did good work lol

[ruby breach]

Fu xuan from star rail

[high haven]

I meant the Mon mesprit

[ruby breach]

Lake trio pink hair

[high haven]

Okay, I was mixing up mons in my head. Alright

[ruby breach]

Well not really hair but you know what I mean

[clever atlas]

They have trash taste, but they sprite good

[frank oxide]

sawkma

(almond) nuts

[vivid merlin]

oh, frankly would love mandibuzz, great for the halloween vibe too, may my prayers be heard

[junior notch]

Just came in here to say mandibuzz would be awesome

[vague reef]

yea makes sense

[dull root]

In what way? Genuinely curious. Manibuzz is just birb for me

[junior notch]

I just think it's a cool pokemon, the caveman aesthetic would also be sick to see on other mons

[finite thistle]

Mandibuzz is such a cool Pokemon, making a bulky Dark/Flying type is really useful. They even let it keep Toxic in gen 9.

[vague reef]

wait is there a voting session rn?

[dull root]

I can see the caveman bit I guess

[dull root]

Not that I know of

[clever atlas]

2 months too late

[vague reef]

ah

[dull root]

Quick, become a spriter before the 20th and submit sprites for the blitz!

You'll get to participate then

[vague reef]

and what does participating do?

[clever atlas]

#announcements message

[dull root]

There's gonna be a spriter only poll after the blitz. and you get extra vote weight depending on how many sprites you make of blitz mons

[vague reef]

whats the poll about?

[dull root]

???? New mons?????

[vague reef]

are u able to vote for zigzagoon

[meager python]

Look at the form and see

[dull root]

I could. I'm not going to though

[prime dust]

poll has been closed for ahwile

[vague reef]

im not asking you to vote for it

im asking if you can vote for zigzagoon , is it possible?

[meager python]

Hes asking if there is a zigzagoon in the poll

[empty pendant]

probably

[prime dust]

zigzagoon is in the poll, no one can vote for it anymore

[vague reef]

yea thats what i mean

[dull root]

I actually don't know lol

[meager python]

Yea its a forgettable mon

[prime dust]

the poll was open for a month, all votes are locked in

[vague reef]

it is my favorite mon tho

[meager python]

Same thing with me and minior

[misty fable]

Yeah but minior is boring

[vague reef]

makes enough sense

[dull root]

There's going to be a spriter only poll. We were just discussing it

[inland jewel]

Any mon from gens 3-7 is available for votes

[meager python]

Opinion ignored

[vague reef]

are u saying that zigzagoon isnt boring?

[sharp nebula]

are comfey and clamperl in this one?

[misty fable]

Yeah? He’s a raccoon (wrong reply sorry)

[meager python]

Wrong person?

[vague reef]

: D

[inland jewel]

I’m assuming what they’re gonna do is ask sprinters what mon line they want added and check your sprite count, then the one with the most votes get in

[sharp nebula]

so theres no actual poll this time?

[dull adder]

monke :)

[empty pendant]

zigzagoon is definitely my favorite early route normal guy so good taste

[vague reef]

funny monke trio cool

[dull adder]

Wasn’t it chosen by a community poll??

[meager python]

Whats the best early route birb?

[vague reef]

and i thought i was the only one that has zigzagoon as a favorite mon , or atleast favorite early route mon

[empty pendant]

there'll be another poll for the spriters who do the bonus blitz

[dull root]

From the annoucement: "Any spriter who makes AT LEAST ONE SPRITE of the new Pokémon revealed during the Blitz will be allowed to participate in an exclusive Spriter only Pokémon popularity poll, much like the poll that the whole community was allowed to vote on, from which the ONE winning Pokémon line will be picked and added to the game directly!" It's a poll

[meager python]

Not in terms of competitive, just pure opinion

[vague reef]

probably taillow , along with zigzagoon

[dull root]

Rookidee

[meager python]

Counter arguement, Corviknight

[empty pendant]

taillow is my favorite early birb, especially after I found two shinies of it under identical circumstances in high school

[inland jewel]

It’s gonna be available after the 20th

[vague reef]

based

[finite thistle]

I wish Tailow was in the game

The Swellow line has some really cool traits

[meager python]

This is why I learned to love jumpluff

[sharp nebula]

rookidee and starly are the only actually good ones, maybe fletchling as well

[inland jewel]

I know it’s a poll, it’s how they’re gonna determine how many votes a mon get

[meager python]

Talonflame is over rated, fletchindee looks cool tho

[empty pendant]

I found a level 6 shiny female taillow in the route just right of rustboro while playing on my game boy micro on the bus on the way to school in the morning while sitting just behind the bus driver

...once on sapphire and once on emerald. all those details above were identical both times.

[inland jewel]

This extra mon is different from the community poll

[tame nebula]

DOGMA PFP SPOTTED

[azure beacon]

feel like Im part of the few people, who hates the early route birds in general. rookidee being the only exception

[misty fable]

Corviknight (I haven’t played gen 8 so idk if he’s early game)

[white meadow]

yeah it's basically route 1

[azure beacon]

also gotta love how rookidee and corvisquire (I believe thats the right name) take up 50% of pure flying types

[white meadow]

those, tornadus and?

[azure beacon]

both tornadus forms

[finite thistle]

Ah

[white meadow]

ig

[empty pendant]

I don't tend to hate any Pokemon except for Greedent

I can def understand having general apathy towards Pokemon though, like, I don't care much about most early route birds except Taillow for sentimental reasons and Rookidee because metal crow is awesome, but it's not like I look at Spearow and go "you disgust me" I look at it and go "he's here I guess"

my opinions on Pokemon is that my tier list is:
-fave!!
-this sparks joy
-pretty alright
-yeah
-eh
-I'd design this differently
-greedent

[feral bear]

Greedent is honestly the worst

Absolutely cosigned

[azure beacon]

for me it would be "most fire starters", instead of greedent

[finite thistle]

Yeah, I don't mind the regional staples iterating on one another, but it does mean that when other Pokemon do something similar it really takes space away from more original designs. Also makes it harder to evolve similar Pokemon in the future if the designs feel too similar

[thorny crypt]

My favorite birds are fletchling and rookidie.

[empty pendant]

I like when the regional birds aren't Just Normal/Flying Types, allowing that space for variety really goes a long way towards making them feel like fun additions rather than a bland obligation

[thorny crypt]

I wish rookidie through corviknight were in the game. Would totally fuse them with talonflame.

[empty pendant]

That's why my regional bird fakemon is fairy/flying when fully evolved

[thorny crypt]

Wattrell and duckly? The duck one also do this.

[finite thistle]

I think Starrapter does a great job really pushing the Normal/Flying type.

But otherwise, I do prefer more variety

[trail hull]

can't wait for todays reveal

[hollow creek]

I like when there's mons that serve absolutely zero use to you and just exist to be part of the natural habitat of pokemon

[finite thistle]

FISH

[misty fable]

Huntail moment

[trail hull]

also here is my participation to dhelmise fusions

[empty pendant]

Ducklett isn't the regional bird for gen 5, Pidove is

The ones with varied types are Rookidee, Fletchling (it counts if it's just the final evo), and Wattrel

[hollow creek]

Tangela, seaking, smeargle, miltank, luvdisk, sudowoodo
Some of these do have niches in runs where stronger mons arent there but you get what i mean

[sand mica]

Why don't you like Greedent? It's one of my liked Pokémon.

[empty pendant]

They also partly exist to be challenging to the player at low levels!!

[white meadow]

unsurprisingly

[finite thistle]

Miltank is incredible, a tank with 100 speed is an incredibly rare trait

[hollow creek]

also the gen 2 pokemon like mukrow, yanma and the monkey i really like even before gen 4

[azure beacon]

miltank is bad. It still hunts my nightmares

[empty pendant]

Take for example Whitney's Miltank. It's not supremely strong once you're in postgame building competitive teams, but it's a terror for the point in the game you encounter her at.

[white meadow]

that miltank wasn't even that difficult for me (probably because i had a female starter but ignore that)

[hollow creek]

same w onix before steelix was a thing

[finite thistle]

Yeah, Onix is definitely the best example

[white meadow]

i somehow always get a female starter for some reason

[frank oxide]

https://tenor.com/view/mickey-mouse-whistle-happy-fun-gif-3538745 dhel/pika

[finite thistle]

female starter is usually 10%

[empty pendant]

looney tunes chungus squirrel that's blander than some of the fuckin gen 1 designs, that has a dark underside and light topside instead of a dark topside and light underside, makes me irrationally go "wow! you took every single thing that I don't like about gen 1 design conventions AND the face design conventions of gen 8 that I don't like and put them all into one mediocre normal type! start over!!!"

[azure beacon]

man, gen2 is sad. only has like six really new mons that dont actually suck. not counting steelix here, cause its technically just an evolution and not an entirely new line

[white meadow]

hey you have ttar and

[sharp nebula]

actually its 12.5% ☝️

[azure beacon]

well, a bit more with the legendaries, but can you really use those as a justification?

[hollow creek]

gens 1, 2 and 5 will always be my favorites in terms on pokemon designs

[white meadow]

i was about to say scizor but then you said the "not a new line" with steelix

[cold fog]

I still wonder why Johto is highly regarded as a region among the casual fans. It is the most boring, bland region with blander Pokémon, apart from a couple.

[fleet hull]

Cool fact: Greedent is actually cool

[finite thistle]

I've been doing a lot of Pokemon challenge runs where I try to make the worst fully evolved teams I can make. Has made me appreciate Pokemon like Lumineon and Carbink a lot more.

[white meadow]

probably because of the remakes, also the fact that it's 2 regions in 1 gen

[finite thistle]

Plus, I've always liked really bad gimmick Pokemon like Cherrim, Casform and Wormadam

[fleet hull]

They may suck but they ain’t bland most of those guys always invited to the function

[azure beacon]

the starters, ampharos, tyranitar and probably something else. Ima be honest, I just thought of ho oh and lugia first, before I realized that legendaries are not really a justification

[fleet hull]

Ampharos is unfortunately not good lol

[azure beacon]

better than other things

[white meadow]

ok now im ashamed of myself for forgetting ampharos

[cold fog]

Did an ORAS Nuzlocke where I had the rule of "I don't switch my Party Pokémon unless they are dead". This rule made me highly respect Mightyena, as she held through the E4 and even was my MVP of the run. 😄

[empty pendant]

Yeah gen 2's 'mons might not be the best statwise but they're very iconic and a lot of people are powerfully sentimental for the game that had TWO REGIONS.

[azure beacon]

I guess you can also count lanturn? although that one only starts to sorta shine with volt absorb

[empty pendant]

I adore Lanturn, on ingame teams it's extremely useful.

[fleet hull]

I mean you would always count Lanturn over Ampharos in terms of viability

[finite thistle]

gen 2 has a lot of problems, though I still think the pokedex isn't terrible, the story and game balance are pretty terrible and the only good thing about the region design is its non-linearity

Water/Electric is sick typing IDK why people like to dog on Lanturn so much

[hollow creek]

are we talking about gen 2 games or gen 2 pokemon designs

[azure beacon]

gen 2 is a step up compared to kanto, but thats not difficult to achieve, if Im honest. I absolutely despise Kanto

[fleet hull]

I’m terms of designs gen 2 is filled with lovable scrimblos so that ain’t an issue

[hollow creek]

cause this is peak ngl

[fleet hull]

99 Goats + Umbreon

[hollow creek]

even the lamer mons had cool lore to them like unown\

[cold fog]

True. Some later regions had ridiculous roadblocks. As much as I love Gen 5..... come on, this was the most ridiculous roadblock (And even 4th wall breaking a bit, I think GameFreak made fun of GameFreak for this roadblock)

[misty fable]

I will end your bloodline

[fleet hull]

With what? Wish protect spam?

[finite thistle]

I actually really like Kanto. Outside of Paldea, its the most non-linear region we've ever had and that can make teambuilding a lot of fun. I also really enjoy gen 1 jank because it makes a lot of Pokemon far more powerful than they'd ever be again

[misty fable]

Oh competitive. Yeah Umbreon is kinda boring

[hollow creek]

paldea bored me, felt too easy

[finite thistle]

It's actually my biggest complaint with Infinite Fusion is taking away a lot of that non-linearity with the new badge HM system

[hollow creek]

I would like a way to make it so gym leaders have one extra pokemon to make randomizers more engaging but thats it

[azure beacon]

I mean, being non linear isnt really an upside, at least with the way it was in gen1 and gen2. cause level caps still kinda push you into a certain direction. and if you try to move in a different direction, you are either stuck with leveling on mons that are 20 levels below you and/or you steamrolling half of the content, because you are overleveled. and then there is pokemon vega, where you still gotta level with underleveled mons, but you cant even steamroll the game, because the battle designs are just pure dogshit

[fleet hull]

I mean I also think Umbreon is kinda boring. Would dislike it as much if it wasn’t so highly praised despite being kinda uninteresting

[cold fog]

Huh? You always needed Cut to progress to rock tunnel after the 2nd gym. You always needed the Marsh Badge to use Surf to get to Cinnabar. Lavender Tower, it was a Glitch that you could cheese the Marowak fight. I think IF's HM blocks are the same as the original Kanto, does it not? (I might misremember)

[violet pawn]

nah they're just nihilists

[misty fable]

Fair, I just like the colors

[finite thistle]

In gen 9, sure the game is longer and the level gaps are a lot more noticeable, but in Kanto I've never had this problem

[azure beacon]

If you wanna have actual freedom of choice, then you kinda need the main battles, like gyms, rival fights, evil team admins/bosses, etc. to scale with you.

[misty fable]

In terms of design, I think he’s middle of the pack

[finite thistle]

Not quite, it was always the Soul badge that you needed for Surf you often would and quite frankly should, skip Sabrina and fight Blaine after Koga

[silent acorn]

Soon. Soon the truth shall be revealed

[cold fog]

Ah right. I stand corrected.

[silent acorn]

Just realized that the 6th falls on the next Saturday

[finite thistle]

Actually, Infinite Fusion forces you to get both the Soul AND Marsh Badges before you can Surf

[silent acorn]

Oh really? That janky requirement from old gens?

[surreal chasm]

The 6th is friday

[silent acorn]

Oh right Friday I was off by a day

If has new game plus right?

[finite thistle]

It's not even old jank, this is something that someone purposely added to the game and that really bugs me

[silent acorn]

I always find it dopey that you don't get surf at misty since that would seem like her thing

[finite thistle]

Yeah, thematically that's not bad

Especially since her gym requires surf in gen 2

[silent acorn]

Hmmm. I get game progression and all. But I feel like the placement of misty should have been at Surges gym and surge maybe at Misty's

Like that feels better for progression because for the most part surf mons don't break past the soul badge levels usually

[misty fable]

Yeah

[silent acorn]

See something I find interesting is that you take your caught mons up to level 5 but no items so you would have to do one run with all your caught wanted surf mons to start early on. I often like trying to build teams around what I have access to early on

[hollow creek]

Who else checks this discord every 10 minutes to see if the new mon was revealed yet

[finite thistle]

Actually, I recently learned from watching Chuggaconroy, that in gen 5 you can use HMs regardless of the badge count, which means if you traded in a Pokemon with Surf and Waterfall, you could get access to areas that would only be available normally right before the E4

[high haven]

Teaser image usually is around 35 more minutes

[vague oar]

Torkoal when?

[azure beacon]

once bruxish gets in

[vague oar]

[vague oar]

Then never
It’s okay if Torkoal doesn’t get in as long as Bruxish also doesn’t

[finite thistle]

Torkoal before Turtonator always

[prime dust]

well yeah...turt is undoable

gen 8 and 9 mons cannonically too strong for RPG Maker XP

I blame the derp gimmicks

[finite thistle]

Turtonator is gen 7

[hollow creek]

Turt is not making it in IF

[finite thistle]

Not before Drampa or Torkoal

[last pecan]

no more dragons pls i beg

[prime dust]

all the dergins

[hollow creek]

no, turt is just never making it because normal people dont like turtonator

[royal drum]

We Do need more fairy types to balance things out

[trail hull]

Vote bonus: +2

I wonder what will today's reveal be

[misty fable]

In my heart I want Gigalith but I can’t really think of any fusions that would make it worthwile

[dull root]

Gigalith is just Nosepass with extra steps

[misty fable]

Don’t you dare compare peak rock type design with sentient pubic hair

[finite thistle]

Don't dis my moustached brethren

Probopass is sick, I wish he got a mega

[graceful torrent]

florges or ribombee would be good fairy additions

[prime dust]

yay...the bnuuy eard stufful

[fleet hull]

Probopass is the definition of peak Pokémon

[graceful torrent]

ideally i would like the tapus

[feral bear]

Aromatisse today

[prime dust]

I still say Chearleader Bewear would be a good idea for the yellow Oricorio

[craggy lynx]

Man i love Probopass

I never understood the hate that it gets

[graceful torrent]

bad typing :(

[misty fable]

Mostly childhood bias. Nowadays I think he’s aight but I hated him as a kid

[fleet hull]

Bad Pokémon design taste unfortunately

People just don’t get it

[finite thistle]

That's probably a lot of it. Man has a massive electric movepool so I'd love a Rock/Electric version

[fleet hull]

They should just give Probopass Levitate

[graceful torrent]

rock electric also not too great :(

[craggy lynx]

People complain that it's "too ugly" like as if Bruxish doesn't exist

[graceful torrent]

youre basically a rock type with extra weakness to ground

[fleet hull]

Bruxish is also peak

[finite thistle]

It's at least more unique, both Magnezone and Probopass deserve Levitate

[fleet hull]

Magnezone doesn’t need it Elec/Steel is an incredible type combo already

Pretty sure it has the most resists of any type combo in the game

[lofty spindle]

What do you intend to vote for?

[trail hull]

I don't know what can be voted

[feral bear]

Vote furfrou

[surreal chasm]

but it levitates

[sharp nebula]

meloetta is the only pick 👍

[fleet hull]

Vote Simisear

[trail hull]

then I'l vote bruxish x)

[lost blade]

Where is the voting gonna happen?

[craggy lynx]

Vote Bruxish to piss people off

[trail hull]

I'm just getting influenced by people

[sharp nebula]

is it working?

[fleet hull]

Bruxish haters seething and fuming as always

[pale flame]

Smite this user

[fleet hull]

I have lightning rod 👍

[pale flame]

With fire.

[alpine inlet]

Oh shit!

[sinful sky]

Mareanie time?

[fleet hull]

I also have flash fire 👍

[pale flame]

Incorrect.

[tardy flame]

Mareanie please....

[glossy osprey]

Guzzlord it must be

[maiden flume]

Toxapex?

[sharp nebula]

its mareanie time

[lost blade]

DELCATTY!!!!!

[low ether]

Ong

[alpine inlet]

I literally saw the announcement pic show up before my very eyes

[fleet hull]

I am correct because I have As One 👍

[pale flame]

Incorrect.

[craggy lynx]

it's mareanie, because Mareanie only appears as a SOS pokemon with Corsola on sun and moon if i recall correctly

[zenith relic]

MAREANIE!!

[fleet hull]

Oh no poor corsola

[molten aspen]

Another water pokemon ;-;

[trail hull]

either toxpaex , or spheal (toxapex corsola is food for them or spheal because he is spuspiciously too round)

[zenith relic]

MARANIE!!

[pale flame]

Oh lord

[fleet hull]

It’s toxapex no doubt

[surreal chasm]

Oh it's Toxapex

[craggy lynx]

Well at least it's another poison type, would've been worse if it was pure water

[cold fog]

Well then. That Corsola is about to be Cursola

[alpine inlet]

What a cute looking pokemon, I hope nothing decides to have it as a meal later

[sharp nebula]

if its spheal i will fill my pants with custard and do around 200 star jumps

[molten aspen]

At least be Eelektross, it's pure electric somehow

[zenith relic]

EEEEHHH IM SOOO HYYPE!!

[lofty spindle]

Took me a moment to remember that Corsola is already in lol.

[hazy pine]

What a cute corsola, hopefully nothing will come along and hunt it into extinction.

[pale flame]

Ugh time to get the stall Pokémon

[cold fog]

BUT. Merciless Ability ❤️

[pale flame]

Merciless > regenerator

[craggy lynx]

Well at least gen 7 is getting a lot of love rn, so that's cool ig

[tame nebula]

MY DUMBASS THOUGHT THE REVEAL WAS CORSOLA

[fair jewel]

Probably Mareanie? Since it eats Corsolas

[violet pawn]

THANK YOUY SO MUCH FROG OMG THIS IS AWESOME

[hollow creek]

OMG CORSOLA IS IN

[tardy flame]

so excited for merciless fusions and my bby girl in general

[chrome maple]

Yay, toxapex line

[zenith relic]

MYYYY GIIIRL!!

[untold spire]

Oops all Alola

[hazy pine]

Sadge that if there isn't going to be anymore aloha mons after this one, we prob aren't going to get minior

[feral bear]

Noooooo please dont hurt corsola

[molten aspen]

Unless it's a fakeout, we got Mareanie

[chrome maple]

Hope Archeops and Golisopod will be added too. Just want to see them have a better life without their Abilities

[cold fog]

To be fair, only Mimikyu was from Alola before. if anything, it creates a bit of balance

[feral bear]

And another water AND poison type smh

[maiden flume]

It's too late, the Corsola is already dead

[craggy lynx]

and Pyukumuku

[fleet hull]

Erm pyukumuku

[maiden flume]

Also, we needed more Poison types

[violet pawn]

we actually have too few non-kanto poison types

[cold fog]

It is Cursola now

.... oh right. To be fair, Pyukumuku is...... meh. and I forgot its in the game, lol

[tidal ridge]

Youre shitting me

[white meadow]

Oh no not mareanie...
I tried once and it ended up horrible

[cinder oasis]

Pyukumuku is goated

[molten aspen]

Just noticed another pokemon is in Toxapex's dex image

[hollow creek]

guys its actually going to be torkoal

[lofty spindle]

So, what if we get Cursola? :P

[finite thistle]

I wonder if we're gonna get Toxapex.

[cinder oasis]

Fr

[thorny crypt]

I think fire/steel has most resists. And dark/ghost the most immunities?

[tidal ridge]

It can’t be Cursola because no gen 8
Unless they make new evolutions an exception

Kinda funny if Mareanie is getting since I’ve been Team Corsola for so long

[finite thistle]

I can't think of any other Pokemon with a relationship with Corsola that isn't gen 8-9

[white meadow]

Well Idk how to make a toxapex but I will find out

[molten aspen]

If it is mareanie, the first fusion needs to be with corsola. Those two need to attack eachother

[outer matrix]

Mareanie reveal?

Is it a mareanie reveal?

[prime dust]

probably

[cinder oasis]

Isn’t it steel and fairy?

[tardy flame]

I sure hope it be

[tidal ridge]

I guess this custom base I made months ago wasn’t for nothing after all

[finite thistle]

Actually, I'd love to see Toxapex's Merciless ability on a more offensive Pokemon

[tardy flame]

yeah its gonna be scary

[cold fog]

Gonna be FUN

[sharp nebula]

its electric steel, i looked it up

[dull adder]

:) funny tv thing

[sharp sphinx]

kiwi is cruel

[alpine inlet]

Guys its clearly Sigilyph

[glass dust]

is mareanie in the teaser image or something?

[graceful torrent]

toxicruel would be a cool pokemon for IF

[sharp sphinx]

@jaunty pebble thoughts?

[drowsy elm]

Guys it's clearly keldeo

[graceful torrent]

nah, marienie and toxicruel both eat and pray on corsola

[sharp sphinx]

no but a happy corsola is

[glass dust]

ah ok

[violet pawn]

mareanie are predators of corsola

[dusk viper]

It’s gonna be toxapex because it eats corsolas

[sharp sphinx]

prey

[cold fog]

Next one: Sallazzle for that Corrosion. Please 🙏

[zenith relic]

Yummy bait for Mareanie and Toxapex

[tidal ridge]

ALOLA FANS COOKIIIIING

[sharp sphinx]

not salazzle because too many horni people show up

[misty fable]

Ok but 3 gen 7 in a row?

[lofty spindle]

What do you think, until when will they let us cook?

[tame nebula]

Next mon from Gen 5 please

[molten aspen]

How could you guys not see that this is Celesteela?

[zenith quarry]

i forgot corsola is already in the game

[violet pawn]

gen 7 best gen

[silent acorn]

You guys ready?

[zenith relic]

I guess Frogman is a huge fan of gen 7

[high haven]

I have a feeling every blitz pick is going to be an Alola mon

[drowsy elm]

All blitz mons being gen 7 would be kinda cool

[silent acorn]

You know what... Its true many of the mons have been Gen 7

[tame nebula]

Lilligant

[misty fable]

Eh at least it could lead to Lycanroc

[zenith relic]

Beartic, we need another ice type

[silent acorn]

3 picks thus far

[surreal chasm]

Eh at least it could lead to Palossand

[tidal ridge]

Eh I would like some variety

[high haven]

I really want to see Zangoose & Seviper for tomorrow, or at the very least sometime this week

[sharp sphinx]

I want excadrill

[molten aspen]

0 legends and 0 ultra beasts. Surely nothing is being hidden from us

[mystic crystal]

I think it's more that Alola just had the most pokémon not in the game... before the new mons, it literally just had Mimikyu and Pyukumuku

[violet pawn]

I'm so happy we're getting toxapex

[cold fog]

Bonus Blitz..... Blitz.... Breakneck Blitz.... Z Move from Alola.... I think you might be on something

[tidal ridge]

Are there any other pokemon other than Toxapex that are related to Corsola

[feral bear]

Pllleeeaasse let corsola survive

[tardy flame]

one of my favorite parts of this channel is seeing people taking great acrobatic leaps through the sky to justify whatever they want, its great fun

[violet pawn]

I don't think so

[trail hull]

imagine it just dies on it's on and it's galarian corsola

[tight summit]

Toxapex

[winter swan]

clearly a spheal reveal (theres water and that corsola is very round)

[thorny crypt]

Right. My bad. I think fire steel is the most x4 resists. Elec steel the most total resists.

[tight summit]

Please god I need one thing

[white meadow]

if it was toxapex the corsola wouldn't be happy

[sharp nebula]

actually its meloetta because in the anime it meets piplup and piplup lives in the water so it would be friends with corsola

[white meadow]

Im happy for everyone and im sure its cool
But im unsure about my ability of spriting it
Remember my Toxapex/Ferrothorn💀

[thorny crypt]

Fire steel as 5 x4 resists.

[violet pawn]

I don't actually

[tardy flame]

[feral bear]

If this corsola dies im calling the police

[white meadow]

Good it was pain to look at

[violet pawn]

lol

[lofty spindle]

If we get Mareanie, can we let it have access to Twineedle?

[sharp nebula]

could you imagine if i actually turned out to be right

[zenith relic]

Don't worry more Corsola under the sea

[silent acorn]

I think toxapex would be an awesome head fusion material

[violet pawn]

no

[white meadow]

I remember my Nidoqueen/Nidoking had banefull bunker
Super usefull ngl

[silk narwhal]

What the hell is the new mon brug

[tardy flame]

with stakes so low if you are then you go buy a lottery ticket if you are right

[hollow creek]

guys, dunsparce/toxapex, serene grace on scald

[cold fog]

Don't worry! It'll just become a Cursola

[silent acorn]

Just punk hair everywhere

[sterile verge]

Omg
Corsula is coming to IF
I can't wait for all the new corsula fusions

[tidal ridge]

Ngl though I wonder how my Corsola/Lileep and Cradily fusions are going to look now, because the whole idea behind them was that they were references to the Mareanie line

[zenith relic]

Watamote fusion

[white meadow]

Toyapex

[silk narwhal]

Huh, pretty cool

[sterile verge]

Might be toxapex

[vague oar]

What are you talking about? It’s clearly Torkoal

[naive cobalt]

don’t we already have corsola

[surreal chasm]

Today it may be Toxapex but tommorow it's Palossand FOR SURE

[sterile verge]

https://tenor.com/view/pokmon-kill-me-im-out-gif-18142494

[violet pawn]

i would cry

[winter swan]

there are rocks there, this clearly proves it

[surreal chasm]

That's a dead Spoink

[tidal ridge]

Yes :)

[high haven]

I really do want Seviper, I would be happy if they end up joining after everything

[naive cobalt]

looks like we are getting corsola^2

[feral bear]

I stg if the next reveal is another beach scene

[tame nebula]

Pls tomorrow Lilligant

[winter swan]

we are getting a second corsola
its like the first one but further into the dex

[tardy flame]

next reveal is a beach scene but its just lilligant on a chair sunbathing

[surreal chasm]

Sandygast Sandygast Sandygast

[tidal ridge]

WE DOING TEAM CORSOLA AGAIN BAYBEE

[ebon torrent]

Squints Mareanie maybe?

[vague oar]

Next reveal would be Torkoal in a beach

[tame nebula]

Good Ending

[winter swan]

and then spheal shows up (real)

[naive cobalt]

and after that it will be liligant wilting due to the drought summoned by torkoal

[spice sage]

Never played it but it has a lot of interesting Pokémon

[zenith relic]

Interesting

[silent acorn]

You tell us frogman lol

[tidal ridge]

Most underrated generation if you ask me

[sterile verge]

It's necrozma in snorkeling gear

[silent acorn]

I never played 7 either

[surreal chasm]

Next reveal would be a beach in a Torkoal

[clever atlas]

Such as

[tight summit]

I need gothitelle so bad oh my god

[silk narwhal]

Gen 7 has a bunch of mons i would like in the game

[cold fog]

Gen 7 felt like all Pokémon were really unique. They either had a unique move, a special niche or a unique ability. great generation

[tidal ridge]

Ngl I thought it was kinda weird that a Mareanie doll was in the game but not Mareanie itself lol

[low ether]

Six shadows form in the water

[winter swan]

its actually just bruxish (there is an ocean in the image)

[alpine inlet]

But have you played gen 5? I heard it has this really cool Pokemon Sigilyph, but it doesnt need to be added in, I just really like it.

[vague oar]

Yea, like Crabominable

[drowsy elm]

The ultra games are honestly up there with black and white 2 imo, some of the best of the series imo

[naive cobalt]

thank you for posting this picture for the 4974277th time 🙏

[silk narwhal]

Cease.

[tame nebula]

Lilligant I am praying tomorrow will be my day

[surreal chasm]

Like palossand

[low ether]

And it reveals some monkeys

[silent acorn]

Probably because instead of them being like repeats or without a niche they were built around their region

[restive arrow]

Pex time

[tight summit]

I’d eat my own organs

[clever atlas]

You're welcome ❤️

[sterile verge]

Don't forget about

[silent acorn]

Where is squidwards house?

[low ether]

Because you'd be just so happy right?

[vague oar]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-pokemon-refresh-crabominable-gif-25043982

[silent acorn]

I feel like minior crowd wasted and opportunity to make planet shaped fusion propaganda

[tidal ridge]

They’re probably delaying the inevitable Sandygast and Necrozma announcement as much as possible

[tight summit]

I’d be combusting all over the place

[fleet hull]

https://tenor.com/view/plug-shaker-xurkitree-pokemon-dank-hood-irony-gif-6570575618905065521

[surreal chasm]

What fusion would that be 💀

[sterile verge]

Honestly crabomidable would be a banger

[restive arrow]

AYO

[silk narwhal]

Also i find it so funny how 3/3 blitz mons so far are from gen 7

[winter swan]

tentacool

[vague oar]

Agree, either a Yeti of the body or a Crab of the head

[tidal ridge]

Uh, Golurk?

[tight summit]

One with Pheromosa/Buzzwole and it says “the bug shaker”

[sterile verge]

Since all of its issues (its ugly AF face) can just not be in the fusions

[hollow creek]

corsola gets hit by an asteriod and dies

[surreal chasm]

I really hope not because each passing day with no Palossand is a pain

[zenith relic]

How long this is gonna take!!

[silk narwhal]

The asteroid is actually necrozma

[restive arrow]

Imagine the corsola gets knocked out of the way to reveal dragapult or some shit

[surreal chasm]

It's not my fault it was in a leak

[violet pawn]

Last time was slightly over 30 mins

[mystic crystal]

But is it really a crabominable face fusion if it's not horrendously ugly?

[restive arrow]

Even though its gen 8

[zenith relic]

Alright!!

[maiden flume]

Dragapult isn't possible

[cold fog]

took about 45 minutes yesterday between the teaser and the reveal.

[tight summit]

https://tenor.com/view/its-peak-peak-fiction-one-piece-gif-26139262

[winter swan]

the reason why its so round is because spheal is hiding behind it

[zenith relic]

If that is Toxapex! I'm playing celebration music!!

[cinder oasis]

Crabominable would be cool fr

[maiden flume]

But imagine that the roundness of this particular Corsola is actually a hint for Passimian

[fresh yacht]

We need buizel though

[maiden flume]

95% chance that it's Mareanie and Toxapex

[winter swan]

https://tenor.com/view/tess-spheal-gif-22641311

[fleet hull]

I don’t think corsola is goin to be eaten the reveal image will be corsola and mareanie furiously making out

[zenith relic]

Wha

[hidden relic]

what.

[tidal ridge]

I’m gonna be honest making so many Corsola sprites has given me an unironic enjoyment for the little guy
I think I have stockholm syndrome

[fleet hull]

Same egg group 👍

[tight summit]

Funniest shit I’ve ever seen

[worn loom]

https://tenor.com/view/spheal-he-agree-nodding-pokemon-legends-arceus-gif-24844405

[lofty spindle]

Good answer!

[tidal ridge]

That would be hilarious

[vague oar]

I would wish for it to be spheal tbh

[cold fog]

Omnomnom NOM.

[maiden flume]

If it's the roundness of this particular Corsola that's the hint, that'd be hilarious

[tardy flame]

at this point if its mareanie then all I have left that I want is lilligant and gourgeist, already got my lad scolipede and everyone else I like

[last pecan]

guys i cant believe Corsola is being added to Infinite Fusion!!!!

[tight summit]

I need corsolaxmareanie slow burn yaoi enemies to lover 52 pages illustrated

[vague oar]

Spheal one of my favorite mons
I love Mareanie, but spheal is top tier

[white meadow]

i mean they are in the same egg group

[sick robin]

inb4 it's cursola /j

[winter swan]

its a second corsola later in the dex

[trail hull]

you made it worse

[tight summit]

I need big stall to make it in

[cyan hare]

ummmm anyone have a guess?

[tidal ridge]

Corsola 2

[zenith relic]

Mareanie: Party Rockers in the house!!
Corsola: Is Party Rock

[maiden flume]

Almost has been 30 Minutes

[winter swan]

the conveniently round corsola moves to the side, revealing spheal

[cedar fjord]

it would be incredibly funny if this was actually a Curseola reveal

[maiden flume]

Or gets nommed, revealing Toxapex

[toxic dock]

oh sweet. toxepex

[tidal ridge]

@agile sun If its Mareanie we gotta make another team
We need to continue the legacy of Team Corsola

[maiden flume]

Or gets picked up, revealing Passimian

[final spire]

please for the love of god...

[cedar fjord]

Passimian rules and would be a hilarious pick

[final spire]

i beg of you please have seedot in the line... I need him... pikmin fans here need him..

[trail hull]

as a pikmin fan I don't see the connection bewtween him and pikmin

[maiden flume]

Or just reveals Bruxish

[low ether]

Cool monkey

[sharp nebula]

wait a minute

[trail hull]

they are already good mons to make pikmin fusions

[maiden flume]

Nuzleaf

[cold fog]

I wouldn't even be mad.

[low ether]

but not as cool

[hoary oxide]

Do we know how many are left to be revealed?

[cedar fjord]

its actually Wigglett, somehow

[surreal chasm]

Um guys...?

[trail hull]

not worht it , we already have some good potential for pikmin fusions

[tight summit]

It’s gotta be at least 2

[low ether]

as a fire, grass, and water monkey

[tidal ridge]

Holy shit

[sharp nebula]

okay bruxish is a rival of toxapex, but bulbapedia doesnt say it eats corsola

[tight summit]

Holy crap Lois, it’s gok

[final spire]

they look almsot the same. and his leaf on the top of his head can make pikmin

[winter swan]

one line per day until the event ends, i dont think we have an exact amount

[tidal ridge]

Stooooop

[cedar fjord]

4 from the initial pick, 5 more days of lines and then possibly a winner's pick from the spriters

[fleet hull]

But look in the background, you see the water????? Panpour is water type

[cold fog]

So is Bruxish 😄

[cedar fjord]

so up to potentially 22 more mons

[winter swan]

goku is being added clearly

[low ether]

EXACTLY

[fleet hull]

True but Bruxish won the community vote so that’ll be saved for last

[loud sorrel]

I’d like the shiftry line in IF cause I can use seedot to recreate this guy lol

[winter swan]

so is spheal

[tidal ridge]

I don’t want bruxish brooo

[low ether]

People are too quick to rule out my main monkey men

[trail hull]

oddisqh is still better for those

[cold fog]

Ah right, right.

[maiden flume]

We're past the 30 Minute mark now

[tight summit]

Nobody likes them I think

[sharp nebula]

nah thats evidence against bruxish

[cedar fjord]

Oranguru and Passimian are good

[final spire]

nuh uh

[low ether]

Wdym, they won a whopping 10000000% on the community poll, I just know it

[tight summit]

I can’t tell what the first emoji cause my eyesight sucks what it that

[proper salmon]

Please no bruxish 😭

[white meadow]

10000000% of 0 🔥

[maiden flume]

It's gonna be hilarious if my "Or Corsola gets picked up, revealing Passimian" joke prediction actually happens

[gentle ferry]

I mean I think it’s obvious what the reveal is gonna be for but choose Gastrodon hopium regardless.

[maiden flume]

Bruxish opens up a lot of possibilities mechanically

[white meadow]

[tight summit]

I don’t want mareanje to win, I just need spheal to lose

[winter swan]

incorrect opinion

[maiden flume]

What do you have against Spheal?

[white meadow]

understandable

[surreal chasm]

Look at Corsola in the eyes and tell me Goku is being being added

[fleet hull]

I just want people to be angry

[tardy flame]

people are always angry

[proper salmon]

Mechanically sure but like.. eugh as an artist I don't wanna see the nightmare fusions it'll create

[tight summit]

🌽

[fleet hull]

True but like gotta up them numbers

[winter swan]

corsola/goku fusion is being added

[fleet hull]

Only weaklings are crying about stuff like dhelmise we need the strong to weep

[cold fog]

I'm the opposite. As a NON-artist, I WELCOME the cursed fusion it can create

[tight summit]

Oh yeah that too, when I was born my father told me that my purpose in life was to maximize suffering

[maiden flume]

Just hope that it's feesh but Psychic type versions of Mons

[gentle ferry]

By the way we all agree this is probably gonna be the funny stall urchin right?

[proper salmon]

We have enough horrible lips with Jynx pls

[maiden flume]

Dhelmise getting in is legit so hype

[white meadow]

isn't that gen 8?

[fleet hull]

Pincurchin?!?!?!?

[cold fog]

But now we can get lips with TEETH. 😄

[maiden flume]

So many possibilities both mechanically and aesthetically with Dhelmise

[proper salmon]

NO 😭😭😭

[clever atlas]

Sadly, yes

[sharp nebula]

its a sea star, but yes

[fleet hull]

Yeah absolutely but people still crying

[surreal chasm]

The only time I got angry at a reveal was when they heavily teased Palossand and stalled for HOURS only to do a fakeout reveal TWICE

[low ether]

Guys think of the possibilities: SIX new pokemon to fuse, and all of them are monke

[proper salmon]

I'm so down for dhelmise tho

[maiden flume]

I've mostly been seeing hype with Dhelmise

[gentle ferry]

I do hope it’s Gastro or Spheal but this is most likely tbh

[fleet hull]

That’s why I said only weaklings

[proper salmon]

Holding out for sandyghast and pallosand

[cold fog]

OH JEEZ. Bruxish + Jynx fusion would be absolutely cursed. And I would ADORE it ❤️

[dull root]

You haven't been in this channel then much lol

[proper salmon]

You're my enemy now 💜

[white meadow]

nothing changes

[late thunder]

Either that or Curseola or however it's spelled

[dull root]

Can't be Cursola, it's gen 8

[tight summit]

You’re my bestie spiritually now

[white meadow]

you unironically think it's cursola?

[cold fog]

TBH, I'm way more interrested with the Merciless Ability then the stally nature of Toxapex 😄

[proper salmon]

It probably isn't cursola as much as I think that'd be a fun addition lol

[maiden flume]

I was after the reveal actually

[tardy flame]

if there's one thing I've learned, you can say no gen 8 till you're blue in the face it just makes people speculate about gen 8 mons more

[tight summit]

So you’re telling me toxapex could have ended it here? With a strong crit?

[maiden flume]

The ones complaining about Dhelmise probably just like to complain

[cold fog]

100% crits. So yes. 😄

[silent acorn]

As much as I think cursola is neat that's impossible at the current time

[dull root]

I have seen very little Dhelmise love, and I've been in here defending it

[surreal chasm]

Uhhh

[tranquil oasis]

I JUST GOT THE LEAK

[silent acorn]

Were you here when were having the debate about weapons?

[restive arrow]

I think it'd be funny if we got pincurchin
Since pyukumuku was the only gen 7 mon until now
And pincurchin was made to look kinda like it
Making it the only gen 8 mon and a repeat of pyuku

[tranquil oasis]

ITS THUNDURUS NO WAY...????

[dull root]

Probably? I don't remember specifically but I did talk about why Dhelmise can't just be weapons

[tight summit]

They gotta put lando too if they do that

[tranquil oasis]

NO its just thundurus acrually

[surreal chasm]

oh it's whishiwashi!

[restive arrow]

I wanna clarify as a frogman pick, not a community vote

[maiden flume]

Mimikyu has been in too

[tranquil oasis]

*** the purpole and green one)

[trail hull]

right now the 2 mon that were revealed are from gen 7 , I think I'm starting to see a patern

[restive arrow]

Oh shit i forgot bc i never encounter it

[distant cypress]

PEX

[cyan hare]

yo yall gonna reveal it or na

[dull root]

Frogman just likes gen 7 designs

[hazy pine]

And he's based for that

[proud lion]

Looks like that one user is gonna be happy. Would be a shame is something happened to that Corsica

[distant cypress]

Hyped

[maiden flume]

Either Toxapex or long shots in Bruxish or Passimian

[misty fable]

3*

[proud lion]

How would Passimian fit

[sharp nebula]

well toxapex isnt confirmed just yet

[zenith relic]

Yeah, it looks like a tasty meal for a certain Pokemon

[cinder oasis]

Swimming in the ocean

[maiden flume]

Corsola gets picked up

[restive arrow]

Who's ready for Iron Toxin, a Steel/Water type with iron barbs, toxic, recover, leech seed, and insane base defenses?

[trail hull]

I meant the lines

[tranquil oasis]

its thundurus))

[maiden flume]

Or Corsola moves out of the way to reveal our beloved round boy

[surreal chasm]

O CHOLERA

[silent acorn]

I think it's toxapex

[sullen elbow]

corsola nooo watch out

[proper salmon]

Tbf gen 6 and 7 are the smallest dexes when it comes to original to region mons. Kalos with 72 and Alola with 80 so there isn't really much to add from Alola to begin with, especially when you narrow it down to what's actually good
So we might start seeing gen 8 sooner than we expect unless they start going back and adding in the mythicals and legendaries they're missing cause idk I'd love to see cresselia

[maiden flume]

95% chance that it is

[gentle ferry]

Probably toxapex, hopium is a lot of mons that are not toxapex.

[silent acorn]

I mean... What else?

[lost blade]

Delcatty

[dull root]

We can't have gen 8 not without a complete overhaul to the game code afaik

[silent acorn]

It can't possibly be jellicent. That one isn't popular... Unless... We were beanbazooled and it's Clamperl!

[cold fog]

Say goodbye to Corsola and hello to Cursola

[sullen elbow]

cursola

[surreal chasm]

Clearly It's Freddy fnaf bear

[maiden flume]

I'm just memeing with Passimian

[restive arrow]

Bruxish lmao

[zenith relic]

Geez almost a hour now

[lost blade]

Do you know specifically why?

[sullen elbow]

I love cursola so maybe it isnt so bad

[maiden flume]

They're really keeping us waiting this time

[silent acorn]

What if it's wishiwashi because of the floating shining stuff?

[silk narwhal]

Frogman loves gen 7 mons, which makes me so happy because we might actually get necrozma and golisopod

[alpine inlet]

I remember when the Trevenant reveal took like 3+ hours for whatever reason.

[cyan hare]

GRAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH WHERE IS IT

[gusty shuttle]

You know what
I'll admit it
It's not Pidove this time

[maiden flume]

I thought that may be a hint to... Something, but I think the true hint is just the Corsola

[proper salmon]

Ah I wasn't aware of that, I just joined here today so I didn't know there was an actual issue with adding them.

[tardy flame]

the reason why no gen 8 is because they would have to update the version of the pokemon thing they use which would require essentially rebuilding all of the customizations they made to the engine

[silent acorn]

Boy I am excited someone better make emo Lopunny or emo Gardevoir with this.

[sharp sphinx]

feel like theres strong indication it's in already regardless

[dull root]

Not specifically, but afaik the version of pokemon essentials that IF runs on is heavily modified and editited. So updating it to include the new mons would be really hard, and essentially require rewriting the game

[lost blade]

Ah, makes sense thanks

[cold fog]

This statement here is why we need Gothitelle

[sullen elbow]

guys its clearly corsola they are adding corsola but again

[gusty shuttle]

Who the fuck is toxapex

[lost blade]

Some monkey pokemon idk

[sharp sphinx]

better mon then pidove

[sullen elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-toxapex-sun-and-moon-gif-1304421876848265826

[fiery blade]

That’s all I really care about. I’m excited about every new mon.

[gusty shuttle]

Ahh this fellow here

[stuck cave]

https://tenor.com/view/or-yehuda-edgy-or-yehuda-edgelord-gif-25925736

[craggy lynx]

yeah it's pretty much going to be Toxapex

[fiery blade]

Baneful bunker meta is back

[proud lion]

https://tenor.com/view/team-rocket-james-gif-25098321

[gusty shuttle]

I like this one
Kind of
I don't dislike it

[violet pawn]

It still hasn't been announced? I went to take a shower and thought I was for sure coming back to see the aftermath

[sharp sphinx]

coulda googled it

[proud lion]

Last time it took around 45 minutes to an hour I think

[gusty shuttle]

I guess

[dry nest]

Let’s gooo another aloloan Pokemon I looove marinie

[white meadow]

sometimes googling pokemon isn't a good idea

[alpine inlet]

Fuck google, some people just wanna make conversation

[tardy flame]

if I was in charge of the announcement I would delay it by 1 minute every time someone mentions being impatient

[silent acorn]

Impatient

[sharp sphinx]

add bulbapedia

[violet pawn]

It was only 33 minutes from the first teaser to showing dhelmise, then some time later it was properly announced

[gusty shuttle]

Incredible, right? For some twitter-level of salty people the concept is astoundin

[violet pawn]

Wait nvm it was just 33 mins no delay after

[silent acorn]

Oh my god! It's luvdisk!

[zenith relic]

Wow taking this long

[sullen elbow]

its barbaracle!

[violet pawn]

no..,

[lost blade]

God i wish

[gusty shuttle]

Btw I initially thought it was actually corsola
I cannot remember which gen the fucker is from

[stuck cave]

Dragalge pls

[fleet hull]

Spell Luvdisc right

[low ether]

It’s gotta take this long, they’re announcing six monkeys

[cold fog]

Adding Luvdisc in the game would make Heart Scale super easy to get...... 🤔

[alpine inlet]

Plot twist, the reveal takes so long because the art they are using for these reveals are being made on the spot

[round light]

Lol probably

[dusk viper]

There’s only one mon that fits corsola unless it’s cursola which I really doubt

[silent acorn]

That was the clue it was corsola Gen 3 pokemon water it had to be luvdisc

[gusty shuttle]

They got the whole underpaid disney artist crew in there improvising

[fresh yacht]

Sad as it is, they made corsola so plump in the art for a reason

[sullen elbow]

nah its just clamperl

[alpine inlet]

Wowie who couldve guess

[dusk viper]

Yep it’s marenie

[lost blade]

There it is

[proud lion]

CORSOLA NOOOOO

[silent acorn]

it was it! TOXAPEX YEAH!

[clever atlas]

Yep, it's confirmed

[dusk viper]

[white meadow]

7 blitz reveals because they are all from gen 7 🔥

[surreal chasm]

Well it ain't Sandygast

[tight summit]

It was mareaniexcorosla yaoi

[tidal ridge]

I can’t wait to see who makes the most brutal Toxapex/Corsola fusion

[clever atlas]

I just don't like toxapex

[late thunder]

(Don't worry, Mareanie only eats the coral branches, Corsola will be ok >.>)
It would have been funny if it doubled as a cursola reveal but alas.

[fleet hull]

No, more gen 7 please xurkitree mandatory 🙏🙏🙏

[white meadow]

the evo eats it whole tho

[molten aspen]

Somebody make that picture of corsola and mareanie into a sprite now

[maiden flume]

Wait... It doesn't say that's part of the Blitz

Updated:

[misty fable]

https://tenor.com/view/the-meme-when-the-gif-21470450

[late thunder]

Gen 7 and 8 blur together in my mind so I thought Tox and Curs were the same gen

[rough prairie]

FR though going to fuse Mareanie and Pinisr, have a cool idea for it

[silent acorn]

Oh that's true all of team rocket alola is here now... Wait a second. If Frog never played 7 he liked these guys from the anime lol

[silent acorn]

What's wanted?

[spice sage]

Lmao just a coincidence

[rough prairie]

Actually, a Glaelie Pinsir fusion goes hard

[dull root]

Luvdisc

I haven't seen the anime since the johto arc

[molten aspen]

:Clueless:

[naive cobalt]

I haven’t seen the anime since

[silent acorn]

To be honest those mons are awesome tho

[gusty shuttle]

I don't care about Pokémon anime but Alola was nice to watch

[cold fog]

I'm just happy to use Merciless. 😄

[silent acorn]

The Sinnoh arc was fire. I recommend.

[marsh yew]

These boys are Poison/Water rather than Water/Poison btw

[tidal ridge]

I stopped watching the anime consistently since like Sinnoh

[gusty shuttle]

Is it important? 🤔

[marsh yew]

For fusion typings, yeah

[silent acorn]

Me fr fr fr

[gusty shuttle]

Ohhh right

[rough hound]
