[neat hemlock]

Nurse joy pretends to be a human

[regal skiff]

Golisopod would have been a awesome one to include

[sturdy breach]

So do I 🙂

[cold fog]

I'd also love to see Aurorus. As I said, I love new abilities in the game, and I love Refrigirate too (Also, another Snow Warning user would not hurt at all)

[sturdy breach]

I just want them in because Amaura is cute as heck, and Aurorus is gorgeous

[cold fog]

true.

[azure beacon]

wdym "another". is there even a snow warning user?

[sharp nebula]

delibird, but we dont talk about that thing

[sturdy breach]

Yes, they gave Delibird Snow Warning 😄 in PIF

[azure beacon]

thats sad.

[cold fog]

BARELY worth mentionning.

[sturdy breach]

I would rather have Alolan Ninetales, but no idea when or even IF that's going to be a thing

[azure beacon]

abomasnow would be a better optiont tbh. or who knows, maybe they give it to froslass

[sturdy breach]

I wish GF would have given Froslass Snow Warning instead of Cursed Body as a HA

[sharp nebula]

most ice types would make sense with snow warning, i mean pretty much all of them can learn blizzard

[azure beacon]

I mean, there are worse hidden abilities. looking at you, audino

[neat hemlock]

Snow warning? Powdered Snow!

[brisk vessel]

Durant

[regal skiff]

Is there a setup move to proc snowing for froslass's snow cloak if it's got it?

[sturdy breach]

I had to look that up, what the actual hell O.O

[azure beacon]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-cat-gif-26460616

[neat hemlock]

What Durant HA do?

[brisk vessel]

Obviously the Pokemon with the worst HA is the one who's hidden ability is True Ant ||(Truant)||

[sturdy breach]

It's Truant

[neat hemlock]

Lol

[sturdy breach]

It doesn't even make sense for a frickin ant >.<

[neat hemlock]

Love it. What a Chad. Don't even gotta fight.

[brisk vessel]

Its cuz he's a True Ant

[azure beacon]

istg, if thats the actual reason, if they just did it as a pun, thats sad

[sturdy breach]

Most likely not, original is JP after all

[sharp nebula]

im pretty sure its entirely for the truant entrainment strat

[brisk vessel]

Its funny at least but it does mean he has the objectively worst HA of any pokemon

Also truant entrainment still sucks cuz you still have to deal with truant yourself

[sturdy breach]

Ohhhhhh now it makes sense

"According to research done on Ant Colonies, Scientist have observed that approximately 20% of the worker ants are hard working ants, 60% are normal workers and the other 20% were “Lazy Workers”."

[sharp nebula]

i mean it trades a relatively useless pokemon for one of the opponents good ones, but id rather just have another good pokemon

[sturdy breach]

So Hustle comes from the first 20%, Truant for the latter 20%

[azure beacon]

truant is probably better on mons that know skill swap

[sturdy breach]

and swarm from the majority 60% 🙂

[azure beacon]

which would sorta imply that hustle is a good ability

[sturdy breach]

I mean, it's a strong ability if you like a bit of a gamble

[azure beacon]

honestly, just run a life orb

[sturdy breach]

OR BOTH

[cold fog]

There's a plethora of bad abilities given to a specific 'mon, but yeah, Durant might have the worst HA out there.

[sturdy breach]

It does, however, make sense thematically. Which I didn't know, and really enjoy 🙂

[sharp nebula]

sure

[lofty spindle]

Ribombee enjoyer.

[cyan hare]

Libombee

[tame nebula]

Manifesting Lilligant today

[brisk vessel]

Like blaqua-

[tame nebula]

Trust, Trust

If she gets added, MASS SPAM PING ME

[brisk vessel]

Idk man Hustle's 50% attack boost is very enticing

[tame nebula]

Like BREAK my discord

[brisk vessel]

Also Hustle is what lets Hisuian Liligant hit hard so i'd say its a good ability

[tame nebula]

[azure beacon]

yeah. but you gotta hit things first

[lofty spindle]

She will be added, we will all make sure.

[sturdy breach]

I want to try setting up a victory dance, running life orb and hustle, and just use Petal Blizzard 😄 in VGC

[brisk vessel]

Then take the risk

[alpine rune]

*sips tea

[tame nebula]

YIPPEEE

[brisk vessel]

50% damage boost is no joke

[alpine rune]

i wanna sprite rush today since ima be busy tmr

[lofty spindle]

https://tenor.com/view/yipee-meme-gif-25350387

[azure beacon]

nope. I would rather use abilities that are good not just on paper

[sturdy breach]

So no using Rock Slide for you either? Stone Edge? stuff like that

[azure beacon]

nope

[civic harness]

Hello there

[azure beacon]

because for me rng is always in favour of the enemy, so the 20% chance of a miss on hustle is more a 50/50 chance

[tame nebula]

If lilligant is added do I recreate this dance in real life

[silk narwhal]

If today we don't get necrozma, I'll kms

[azure beacon]

please dont. its just a game

[robust geyser]

i'll gladly pay for your funeral

(honestly i think that if Necrozma is in, he's one of the 20 community-pick)

[elfin goblet]

i reported him

[runic flame]

Hi guys

[thin jetty]

dont say that

[elfin goblet]

threats like that are not funny

[silk narwhal]

What?

What are you talking about

[thin jetty]

i wish we could get gen 8 mons i want dragapult and toxtricity so bad

[tame nebula]

If Lilligant doesn't get in today or tomorrow reveal, i will become a spriter and make like 100+ Blitz sprites purely to singlehandedly get her in

[silk narwhal]

Did you report me because of a joke that was ALSO about myself?

[cold fog]

I will root for you 😄

[silk narwhal]

That's not how it works

If you make multiple sprites for the same mon, it counts as just one

[robust geyser]

it doesn't matter to make 100+, making more than one sprite for the same blitz pokemon doesn't add up

[thin jetty]

yall have no sense of humor

[tame nebula]

Awww ok

Then I'm making uhhhh

[However many mons we will have in total] amount of sprites

[robust geyser]

you can try the treevenant contest however

[silk narwhal]

11-13 probably

[zinc cave]

i mean you're a spriter just make the most sprittes then vote necrozma

[cold fog]

I'll still root for you. (Seriously, I cannot do that, takes me a compass and a ruler to properly draw a stickman, anything artsy like pixelart is not for me 😅 )

[silk narwhal]

Yeah but it's a vote, necrozma might not win
Also I'll vote for meloetta, necrozma will probably make it

[zinc cave]

your vote counts for more votes the mor sprites you mak

[silk narwhal]

I know how it works

[zinc cave]

it'll at least give you more of a chance is all im saying

[silk narwhal]

I knoooooow, i have already made 5 sprites plus 5 sketches

[zinc cave]

from the looks of it so far you can have an up to 10x modifierr on your vote

[silk narwhal]

Yeah, for now

[zinc cave]

mhmm could go up to like 13

[silk narwhal]

Yeah

[zinc cave]

or more if its a big group

either way good luck

no ultrabeasts have gotten in but at least a few of my favourite pokemon have

[silk narwhal]

I think they should have made the time window smaller
10 instead of 20 days, because with so much time, anyone can make 13 sprites

So it kind of invalidates the whole point of it

[thin jetty]

only pokemon im not excited for is dhelmise

im so excited for sharpedo tho hes always been one of my favorites

[agile olive]

some people have work man, making 13 sprites over a weekend is a bit of a rush

[silk narwhal]

10-12 days seems alright imo

[zinc cave]

yeh but work

[agile olive]

I have like 5+ other projects to do this weekend so would rather have more time to do anything.

[zinc cave]

real world money or some extra pixels in a game

[silk narwhal]

I have school, and yet

But that's not the point, I'm probably just tryharding

[brisk vessel]

this is all i could think about for sandygast

[zinc cave]

anyone would pick pixels in a game

[silk narwhal]

Lmao

[brisk vessel]

sand witch

[zinc cave]

jk obv but like work and school are different

[brisk vessel]

i remember blaq said joke sprites also count towards the blitz if they have effort in them

[zinc cave]

you miss a few assignments you'll get a lower grade, you slack on your job you get fired

[zinc cave]

but good news for you, you're vote will just count for more in the end since you have more free time to do them

[silk narwhal]

@brisk vessel

[alpine rune]

NO FUCKING WAYYYYY XD

What's that sandvich fusion, I need answers now

[zinc cave]

sandwichgast

i think its a joke base sprite alt?

[silk narwhal]

Mismagius

@zinc cave

My blitz sprites so far

Plus an alt

[sharp nebula]

sandygast/mismagius

[brisk vessel]

True

[sharp nebula]

oh i didnt see this, i thought i was clever 😭

[silk narwhal]

I now have concepts for half of the blitz mons and sprites for the other half

Thankfully the concepts are pretty simple so i won't die making them

[brisk vessel]

I need to make sure my Meloetta vote matters

Sandygast addition basically confirms that the leaks are real so Necrozma should be soon

[sharp nebula]

youre doing arkoos' work

[brisk vessel]

I still haven't done Mareanie yet but I already have an idea for it

[white meadow]

I did both

[gusty shuttle]

Simple but effective
Approved 👍

[brisk vessel]

I haven't had time to do mareanie yet cuz the Toxapex one took a long while

[prime dust]

I'll have a double triple bossy deluxe on a raft, 4x4 animal style, extra shingles with a shimmy and a squeeze, light axle grease; make it cry, burn it and let it swim

[zinc cave]

i will defiitely be using that toxapex one on my team given the chance

[alpine rune]

Tomorrow's Saturday for me, I'm pulling an all nighter to make them sprites

[prime dust]

tmrw is saturday for most of the world

[graceful torrent]

Unless it’s already Saturday

[prime dust]

look we don't count the weirdos living in Australia

they upside down anyway

[alpine rune]

Australia is just a prison for fucked up animals

[hollow creek]

Whose it gonna be today boys

[alpine rune]

Aurorus :)

[lapis gate]

Buizel, i bribed the frog

[white meadow]

i bribed it back to not add it

[glossy osprey]

They gotta end it with a legendary

[lapis gate]

I already got paid for the month, i can get it in, just gitta cut down on the whole food addiction thing

[silk narwhal]

YIPPEE

[brisk vessel]

My toxapex is a legendary so gg

[proud lion]

My prediction for the final Blitz Mon: Salazzle

[silk narwhal]

Wrong

[brisk vessel]

[silk narwhal]

Which

[clever atlas]

Waatch the four vote slots remaining be my bapies

[sturdy breach]

Final answer 🙂

[craggy lynx]

Oh boy, final blitz mon, it's gonna be Necrozma

there's no way, if Palossand got in, then the leaks might as well be true

I'd be more surprised if it wasn't Necrozma

[clever atlas]

Yeah i wouldn't be too upset with those either, i just like my bapies more 😀

[prime dust]

we need aororus for the pairing with Tyrantrum

also another Ice mon to add to the game is a plus

[white meadow]

YESSSS
or Salazzle
Or Gogoat
Or Golisopod

[sturdy breach]

Yesh Salazzled 🙂

[toxic oracle]

clawitzer my beloved

[sharp nebula]

If the last blitz mon isn't necrozma then I'll be fairly convinced that there'll be some legends as extra

[silk narwhal]

https://tenor.com/view/xenoverse-goku-super-saiyan-angry-dbz-gif-1416275111944307575

Necrozma.

[clever atlas]

Don't you want golisopod too?

[alpine rune]

Fight in Showdown FFA Ranbats to see who's opinion is better

[sharp nebula]

Oh actually didn't blaquaza say that today's reveal is a Mon that he thinks is cool?

[brisk vessel]

Rayquaza

[clever atlas]

Rayquaza baybee

[sharp nebula]

If this is true then I don't think its necrozma

[alpine rune]

aurorus confirmed B)

[brisk vessel]

I hope it's Archeops

[tame nebula]

Lilligant will be todat

If she is added

Spam ping me until I actually scream

[silk narwhal]

Basado

[brisk vessel]

Its also technically a reference to gens-

[lofty spindle]

It did sound like it would not be Ribombee this time, though.

I believe in lycanroc, being popular, and we don't really have anything for a werewolf theme.

[white meadow]

Hes obvious to get in

[lofty spindle]

Why?

[prime dust]

because the Sandyghast/Pallosand leak was confirmed

[sullen elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-wynaut-happy-jump-gif-17071241

[zealous flint]

Hopin for tropi

[violet pawn]

lol

[zealous flint]

I hope necrozma doesnt get in even if it was leaked

Would be really funny to watch peoples reactions

[lofty spindle]

We have more highly requested choices.

[prime dust]

requests mean jack all for the bonus

[sullen elbow]

It would be funnier to see your reaction to it getting in

[lofty spindle]

I see, but was it not deconfirmed due to Palossand not being picked by the vot but instead for the bonus?

Well it is a naturally popular target for fusion due to its lore.

[zealous flint]

All the bonus blitz im pretty sure are just pokemon that frogman likes

[prime dust]

we assumed he would be in the poll

[prime dust]

either stuff he likes or thinks would be a good addition to the game in one way or another

[white meadow]

Would be funny if you never get in just to see your reaction

[silk narwhal]

Don't you fucking dare

[zealous flint]

Wdym dont you dare me saying that does nothing

[silk narwhal]

Grrrrrr

[lofty spindle]

To be fair for most we got a clear reason in them bringing something unique to the table.

Then there is Altaria.

[zealous flint]

Whats wrong with Altaria

[terse fable]

It hurts Necrozma's feelings

[white meadow]

Altaria is Whimsicott as a bird

[clever atlas]

Yay another lycanroc believer!

[lofty spindle]

It gives nothing, it's typing is common among dragons, we have various birds, including pidgeons and we have various Pokémon for a cotton cloud and fluff theme.

[zealous flint]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-haircut-epic-gif-23545096

[lofty spindle]

I'm about to fade 'you' out of existence.

[zealous flint]

[white meadow]

Thats why Gogoat is better than altaria

[terse fable]

Yea but funny hats

[lofty spindle]

Honestly? Still wouldn't have popped off or anything but I would have been happier.

[white meadow]

Yeah obviously for most not by worlds

Ngl even Altarias lines fusions arent so fire as many acted they would be
I blame Blaquaza

[celest bobcat]

Sounds like someone justifying the team of Gen 9's champion
Lol

[white meadow]

Gogoat was the only good mon there

[finite reef]

*several people are typing*

[sturdy breach]

Her team had some bad mons, but mostly her ace doesn't make any sense

[lofty spindle]

I swear if Blaq getting Altaria means we are not getting Ribombee...

[white meadow]

Im jokeing but even more in a Fusion game is Gogoat a good mon
And it never let me down

[white meadow]

It should have been the first mon and kinggambit last than the team would be actually good

[celest bobcat]

At least Geeta has more regional mons than Leon Lol

[sturdy breach]

Yeah, replace Veluza and Avalugg while you are at it though. Ceruledge/Armarouge depending on the version maybe and then add a pseudo

[celest bobcat]

Gogoat got a lot going for it
One of the earliest ride pokemon
Smash bros PokeBall pokemon
And now it's a pokemon of a champion

[zealous flint]

https://tenor.com/view/chorizar-charizard-gif-25640290

[sturdy breach]

Like a Dragonite or something

[silent acorn]

Ain't chu got enough dragons

[white meadow]

Also its pretty solid fusion material design wise
Its the only goat mon
It has good coverage for a grass type
It has a ability that gives a immunity
And its stats mix good when fuseing

[sturdy breach]

We were looking at Geeta's team 😄

[white meadow]

Dragonite worst pseudo desing wise for me

[sturdy breach]

Dragonite is a solid #2 when it comes to pseudos for me

[violet pawn]

dragonair and dratini are fire tho

[proud lion]

https://tenor.com/view/basculin-fish-flop-pokemon-anime-gif-5391386002298953918

[sullen elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-legends-arceus-pokemon-the-pokemon-company-nintendo-an-antique-gif-25074890

[marsh lily]

For me, it's a tie between Dragonite and the new one.

[sturdy breach]

Baxcalibur is 100% the worst

[marsh lily]

They already made a Godzilla pokemon

[silent acorn]

Kinda what magikarp should have been honestly

[celest bobcat]

Nah
I think Charizard's a Goat as well... to the pokemon company

Always reminding us why it's a Goat
Getting 2 mega forms, a dynamax, being the champion's Mon twice, 2 spots in the masters 8 tournament...

WE GET IT TPCI
CHARIZARD'S A GOAT
STOP ALREADY!

[sullen elbow]

Tyranitar isnt Godzilla

[sturdy breach]

I will say it again: Tinkaton should have been the pseudo in Gen9

[marsh lily]

Really?

[silent acorn]

I dont really like Baxcalibur even if it's an attempt at godzilla

[white meadow]

Yes absolutly

[proud lion]

Shiny Baxcalibur is le garbage

Why couldn’t they make it black ice?

[sturdy breach]

It's entire existence is 🙂

[marsh lily]

I do like the previous evolutions, though.

[sturdy breach]

They should have scrapped the 1st evo and the final stage and made the middle one a standalone mon imo

[proud lion]

During the Blitz, we never had a line with 3 stages

[white meadow]

Actually Baxcalibur is just empty
Its exactly the opposite of the pokemon that make people say "pokemon today are just digimon"

[glacial vigil]

What is all this Altaria hate?

[white meadow]

pokemon today are just pokemon

[glacial vigil]

Time to fite!

https://tenor.com/bmwmF.gif

[white meadow]

tbh some of them look like they were from gen 1, but not in a good way

[marsh lily]

That's from an episode where a giant guineapig ate everyone in Bikini Bottom, if I recall correctly.

[proud lion]

https://tenor.com/view/swablu-altaria-pokemon-birb-bird-gif-12157582

[silk narwhal]

Please be necrozma

[glacial vigil]

Saying Altaria brings nothing is a lie. The swablu/altariu fusions so far have been some of my favourites. What pokemon is there for cotton? Whimsicott? We all know the fusions are a different aesthetic

[proud lion]

Clouds.

[glacial vigil]

I feel like Noivern is the one that doesn't really bring anything, but there would have been even more dragons if frogman didn't veto some

4 dragon lines from voting got in

[lofty spindle]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1116446654502031490/1120999042894282833/ezgif.com-optimize.gif

[lofty spindle]

Besides Whimsicott, we also have Togekiss and Jumpluff.

[glacial vigil]

They both have different aesthetics as well

[lofty spindle]

Indeed, these three can represent clouds in three different ways, there is no need for Altaria.

[glacial vigil]

But noone of them do?

[ivory rune]

Veluza should've been replaced with something like Dondozo

Baxcalibur instead of Avalugg too

[sturdy breach]

I don't think shoving Dondozo in there would work, it's already part of the titans storyline and really a doubles mon. Also BAxcalibur is the ace of the dragon dude I forgot the name of

[ivory rune]

mmm true

[glacial vigil]

Whimsicott is clearly cotton, Jumpluff also has a more cotton aesthetic and idk why you even bring in Togekiss when there is nothing fluffy about it

[heady ore]

Today is the day, where we finaly get Hippopotas.
I feel it in my bones

[glacial vigil]

Altaria is here for the cloud aesthetic, which no other pokemon brings

[lofty spindle]

It's wings take on the appearance of the way wind-blown clouds have been depicted in the past

And by this logic, Altaria is just downs, not clouds.

[glacial vigil]

This is semantics now

The point was really that Altaria does bring a unique aesthetic to the game

[lofty spindle]

You wanted to explain that Altaria was different from the other fluffbearers.

[glacial vigil]

The fluff between them is clearly different though

[lofty spindle]

You just said the difference is semantic.

[prime dust]

altaria = cloud
cloud = floof
therefore
altaria = floof

[lofty spindle]

Altaria even gently pets people it likes with its floof.

You know, I see people argue all sorts of ways for why Altaria deserved its spot,
but not once did I see someone say "I really like Altaria, and am glad a favourite of mine made it in."

[glacial vigil]

I did not say that? You were being semantic with the way you define Altaria aesthetic

Clouds, downs, whatever

[dull root]

"I really like Altaria, and am glad a favourite of mine made it in." But also that's a worthless sentiment because favoritism gets you weird niche picks with low sprite potential

[lofty spindle]

But it is a valid reason to like its inclusion.

[clever atlas]

Im pretty sure like 1 or 2 people in this channel did say pretty much exactly that, guess you just missed it

[glacial vigil]

I am one of those actually

[silent acorn]

I dont know what you mean low sprite potential have you seen what has been made with it???

[dull root]

However, Altaria is not a weird niche pick with low sprite potential. It's very good

[white meadow]

Sure the one with actual good fusions brings nothing 🤦

[azure beacon]

baxcalibur has about as much thought put into its design as dragonite. except with dragonite you can at least say that its almost 30 years old.

[spice sage]

Agreed tbh

[silent acorn]

Feels like noivern fell to the side and toad agrees with this message

[lofty spindle]

The closest we had to a Wyvern bodytype we had before was like, the Zubat line.

[glacial vigil]

That is how I personally feel tbh. I don't deny it has good fusions, I just feel like it is not unique compared to others that got in

[spice sage]

But Noivern was the #1 most voted excluding the starters sooo

[oblique sigil]

I'mma guess today's blitz pokemon correctly UwU

[azure beacon]

eyo?!

[violet pawn]

woah

[dull root]

Noivern is cool looking. Is it particularily good for sprites? Imo, not really

[oblique sigil]

hey hypnotoad

[clever atlas]

Yoooo

[white meadow]

Yes for a reason

[lofty spindle]

People just wanted Boomburst lol.

[spice sage]

Top 3 were all dragons

[glacial vigil]

Boomburst at lvl 60+

[lofty spindle]

Well there is a counter for those...

[dull root]

Yep, all people want are dragons lol

[silent acorn]

When we already got boomburst in the game ¦|

[white meadow]

Rn I didnt see Noivern sprites that I dislike

[glacial vigil]

Where boomburst? xD

[lofty spindle]

https://tenor.com/view/ribombee-pokemon-gif-25622771

[oblique sigil]

hypnotoad, can you telepathically tell me the remaining blitz pokemon? I promise not to tell anyone UwU /j

[silent acorn]

Actually I voted altaria and excluded noivern and goodra. Cuz I knew they had hype behind them. I like altaria more.

[lofty spindle]

Who gets it rn?

[silent acorn]

Flygon. Has been that way for a long ass time

[lofty spindle]

Ah yeah, Flygon is in, learns it specifically from its pre evo if I recall.

[spice sage]

done

[silent acorn]

Don't be a snitch purple

[craggy lynx]

imagine if the final blitz mon is Bruxish

[glacial vigil]

The drama would be funny ngl

[lofty spindle]

There would be riots.

But nah Blaq seemed earnest when saying people would like it.
I don't think it will be a meme pick.

[graceful torrent]

Obviously it’s Pallosand but a second time

[spice sage]

People don't like bruxish?? 😲😲😲

[white meadow]

Ah yes the faces of "Brings nothing" and "no potential"

[tidal ridge]

Seriously??? Damn

[dull root]

Bruxish would be cool ngl, the colours alone are worth

[craggy lynx]

Bruxish is probably one of the most hated mons (as far as i'm aware)

[lofty spindle]

As a Pokémon, Bruxish has a fun ability, but nothing else.

[silent acorn]

Bring me the infernape one and I will agree

[azure beacon]

I can already see how it gets revealed and people start shitting on it immediately, like with that one boat thing a few days ago

[oblique sigil]

yeah, tysm, that evolutionary line will be pretty good (not that it's necessarily a full line, just trying to keep the surprise)

[glacial vigil]

I honestly don't like any of those sprites, but I have seen some others I like

[lofty spindle]

Boat thing?

[glacial vigil]

Ok, that's cool

[lofty spindle]

https://tenor.com/view/metal-gear-rising-raiden-metal-gear-jet-steam-sam-friendship-gif-25014876

[azure beacon]

dhelmise

[graceful torrent]

Final blitz pick is Abomasnow

[lofty spindle]

Dhelmise's reveal seemed pretty calm though?

[white meadow]

You dont like any? Really?

[lofty spindle]

I saw discussion on how to use it, but not that it was worthless or anything.

Definitely less than Altaria.

[glacial vigil]

Yeah, just not my thing, I guess, but I like the infernape

[white meadow]

Who?

[lofty spindle]

Honestly could be worse if so, but we already have an ice-type. I would really like a Fairy.

[glacial vigil]

There was one person who was being rude and all that just because Dhelmise got in

[white meadow]

Okay the ones I send in show more the wyvern aspect
You probably like the sound and music ones more

[glacial vigil]

Otherwise most people seemed excited

[lofty spindle]

What do you mean?

[dull root]

No, no it was not calm. I didn't see nearly any Altaria hate. Dhelmise got shat on lol

[white meadow]

What pokemon do you mean

[white meadow]

I did

[tidal ridge]

I didn’t really see any Dhelmise hate
And besides they led to a ton of cool fusions

[lofty spindle]

I was there for both, hbu?

[graceful torrent]

Y’all have ENOUGH fairy types. Give me a hail setter

[prime dust]

you missed a lot then

[craggy lynx]

Wait now i'm curious, who would that "pokemon that many people will like" even be?
there's a quite a bit of them

[dull root]

I mean, same? idk then

[tidal ridge]

Me hoping that Lurantis and Ribombee somehow pulls through

[lofty spindle]

We literally, statistically don't.

[graceful torrent]

Show me the stats

[dull root]

Lurantis would be cool. I don't see much of a reason for Ribombee other than fairy type

[glacial vigil]

Nah, ice is worst off

[prime dust]

#pif-hoenn-discussion message

[lofty spindle]

We have nothing for a small, classic fairy bodytype.

Celebi?

Outdated copy pasta from one of the users

[lofty spindle]

Probably three more hours or so...

[graceful lodge]

nihilego would also be extremely fun to fuse with stuff

considering it already has a human canon fusion

[lofty spindle]

Ideal as a head fusion, but I dislike single stages...

[oblique sigil]

or about 30 minutes

[violet pawn]

bro you forgot to copy the fighting types💀

[white meadow]

People hate on Noivern and Scolipe and than always come with a squid or anything else we already have

[lofty spindle]

I see the telepathy is coming clutch huh?

[dull root]

Celebi is the iconic fairy. Although i guess it's not actually fairy type

[prime dust]

nah, hint is usually around 12pm est ish

[graceful lodge]

bruh, space jelly

[oblique sigil]

wdym?

[silent acorn]

On mobile I didn't see what It copied

[lofty spindle]

The joke you made when Toad came into the chat?

[proud lion]

It varies. It can be at 10, it could be at 2

[violet pawn]

lol yeah, but if someone doesn't know, fighting tyoes are the least represented type in IF

[oblique sigil]

yeah but one was at 9am CST

[white meadow]

what if we get a bonus pick for one group of starters?

Its when Kiwi is awake and feels like it

[proud lion]

I wish. But they said no starter lines

[glacial vigil]

Maybe, but ice is still in a bad shape, just because there aren't many

[oblique sigil]

yes but that that message didn't have anything to do with the telepathy

[proud lion]

They could surprise us by shadow dropping one group of them in the update release with a few surprise shadow dropped Pokémon

[dull root]

Why would you want more starters There are so many more interesting designs and mechanics

[silent acorn]

People discriminate beartic but no vanilluxe so.....

[oblique sigil]

it's not like toad is aware of when kiwi will post smh

[oblique sigil]

no starters in the vote for the 20 pokemon. starters are still possible

[glacial vigil]

The ice dream really is just to have a hail setter that isn't delibird

[graceful torrent]

Chesnaught is cool tho

[dull root]

Purple just has future knowledge but limited to only the times for releases of various things

[graceful lodge]

there isnt that many options for that tbh

[clever atlas]

This should be accurate
Pokémon type percentages based on Gens 1-7

35/44 Ghost Types (79.5%)
35/45 Dragon Types (77.8%)
46/64 Ground Types (71.9%)

47/66 Poison Types (71.2%)

[graceful lodge]

alolan ninetales or abomasnow

[thin jetty]

im pretty sure they said starters will come, just not in this vote

[finite reef]

It would be cool to see Alolan Ninetales added

[oblique sigil]

btw what do you mean by "joke" it was real smh.

[glacial vigil]

Abomasnow and Aurorus, I'll take either

[hollow creek]

Please let it be abominable snow

[fallen loom]

You took my jerb!

[oblique sigil]

doesn't mean no starters at all

[finite reef]

Aurorus is very likely, exclusive access to Refrigerate

[clever atlas]

Yeah sorry ig...

[proud lion]

They did mention in the potential future so they are not completely off the table

[graceful torrent]

You should say that about Pokémon like cherrim and castform with exclusive abilities

[finite reef]

I can't wait for Aurorus/Flygon with STAB Refrigerate Boomburst

[silent acorn]

My bad I did it first

[fallen loom]

:X

[oblique sigil]

exactly, starters are still a possibility at some point smh

[hollow creek]

aurura saurus

[finite reef]

But Aurorus also doubles as a hail setter (and is the counterpart to Tyrantrum ig)

It would be funny if the next teaser is still sand somehow

[azure beacon]

those are gonna be difficult to implement though. you would need two/four different versions of a sprite for the form change

[graceful lodge]

how does aegislash stance work?

[hollow creek]

I'd rather abomasnow cause its main ability is snow warning and I like its design more ngl

[lofty spindle]

Or Aurorus/Noivern?

[hollow creek]

idk I have unpopular taste in pokemon

[lofty spindle]

Then the sand image is sent again, btu the saturation is removed, turning it white... like snow!

[silent acorn]

Ok now that's a cool idea

[graceful torrent]

Does head give primary or secondary type? Aurorus’s stats are much better suited for head fusions which I believe would give it the rock type and not the ice type

[azure beacon]

who says the types will remain the way they are now? wouldnt be the first time the types got swapped around

[silent acorn]

I think head should be ice and body rock imo

[graceful torrent]

No one really this is just speculation based on current information

[prime dust]

only when it makes sense have they changed stuff

[silent acorn]

In the case of aurorus I think it makes sense the head to be ice since that's what gives the ice crystals and stuff

[graceful torrent]

Either way you get a rock type with refrigerate and no stab or a rock type with snow warning

[fleet hull]

Flower Gift doesn’t require a form change to function, it’s just a side effect of it being on cherrim. It could easily be made that Flower Gift just boosts the Attack and SpDef and nothing more

[silent acorn]

Well hail in IF doesn't work like how it does in the modern games. It's not gonna raise defenses or anything like that

[graceful torrent]

TRUE

It’s still blizzard spam enabler and snow cloak gamers

Unfortunate we don’t have any slush rush users

[silent acorn]

Someone tell me how sandstorm and hail Dont cause a accuraccy debuff again?

[fleet hull]

Because that would be stupid and obnoxious

[graceful torrent]

Because that would be a horrible choice and you would be asked to leave the kitchen

[azure beacon]

you can have refridgerate with the ice type by fusing the head with something and then using a reverser

[fleet hull]

Sand Veil and Snow Cloak are already tedious enough

[cold fog]

Because that would make way too much sense for GameFreak to think about it.

[silent acorn]

I dont know, it's not like you have perfect aim in sandstorm or snowing weather

[graceful torrent]

Why shouldn’t heavy rain make it hard to aim?
What if the sun is in my eyes during harsh sunlight?

[glacial vigil]

ok, time to aaaaaaaaa

I'll be back later

[azure beacon]

and considering that snow warning is a hidden ability, not a regular one, I dont think it even matters which part you fuse it with

[fleet hull]

Do you remember the fog in D/P/Pt? Name one person who remotely enjoyed that

Then try applying that to two conditions that are much more widespread

[silent acorn]

Its actually not that hard to aim in rain it mostly splashes.

Sandstorm and snow get In your eyes in fact it's kinda goofy how in the anime they use those moves for that exact reason.

Actually funny thing, if sandstorm atleast did that you could make dodgy defensive rock types crazy good

[white meadow]

Since when does flygon learn boom burst

[graceful torrent]

Evasion is not a fun concept to play around
It never will be a fun concept to play around

[silent acorn]

Since it's cool

[silent acorn]

Its a concept in game so may as well use it some more as trolly as it is

[cold fog]

Fog was a good idea IMO, just badly implemented. I'd make it do No-Contact moves had an ACC debuff, but contact moves had their original ACC. But it's mostly irrelavent, since it was only an overworld weather status, there's no "Set Fog" move.

[white meadow]

Oh Vibrava gets it 2 levels after it evolved

No wonder i didnt know

[silent acorn]

Honestly I played some fan games or rom hacks where some pokemon are basically exclusively made around debuffing your opponent with accuraccy it's fun

[graceful torrent]

That doesn’t sound fun; it sounds lame and more importantly inconsistent

[fleet hull]

But there are ways to set Hail and Sand. If people are finding a set weather on one route very frustrating imagine having to deal with that on a regular basis.

[prime dust]

gen 7 learn pools spook

[graceful lodge]

for a game being "lame" is more important than "inconsistent"

[naive cobalt]

I’m glad that we are trying to make pokemon make sense because that will definitely work out because pokemon is a game of logic that makes perfect sense

[hollow creek]

why does dudunsparce learn boomb burst

[graceful torrent]

He clap

[zenith relic]

Well today the endgame who gonna be the last Blitz and tomorrow be the next mon for the voting slots

[cold fog]

gotta end the Blitz with a bang, right? So there's no way a boring 'mon gets announced today.

[terse fable]

High chance of luvdisc then let's get it

[proud lion]

https://tenor.com/view/sunkern-pokemon-epic-yooo-hype-gif-23470060

[oak plover]

The Monke Trio is so hyped rn

[proud lion]

Sunkern for Infinite Fusion

[prisma urchin]

Gotta be a 3 stage evo or a legendary I reckon, unless Im mistaken theres only been 1 stage and 2 stages

[clever atlas]

Scolipede exists

[prisma urchin]

I mean in the blitz

[terse fable]

Spheal would be a huge 3 line to get

[last pecan]

were in Final Announcement range

itll likely be in 2 hours tho

[clever atlas]

Out of 3 stage lines im gunning for vikavolt

[tidal ridge]

According to Toad the final announcement will be a pokemon “everyone likes”
Which I find incredibly vague but oh well

[sharp nebula]

it better not be spheal

[prisma urchin]

Bruxish then lmao

[cold fog]

no such thing. Every Pokémon is someone's favorite and someone's least-liked 😛

[clever atlas]

Everyone likes, huh
Everyone likes dogs!

[fleet hull]

https://tenor.com/view/regice-regirock-registeel-running-run-gif-16398635

[tidal ridge]

I feel like it’s gonna be Lurantis or Rockruff or something

[fleet hull]

Nobody with a valid opinion dislikes the Regis so that means everyone likes them

[clever atlas]

valid opinion

[white meadow]

I would be fine with spheal

[prime dust]

another ice mon to the list

[prisma urchin]

Yeah Spheal line would be solid

[prime dust]

plus it gives us the perfect spheal/goomy fusion

[tidal ridge]

Spheal would be cool but I’m not sure if they’ll be picked

[prime dust]

we desire the goopy boi

[outer matrix]

My big question is if everyone likes spheal a lot, what about its evolutions? I don't see people talk about spheal's evolutions

[prime dust]

the evos are nice, they lose a bit of the cute factor...but not gonna complain about that too much

[cold fog]

I still really want Sallazzle in, just because of Corrosion ability. I wanna see other new abilities to be inserted in the game!

[tidal ridge]

Salazzle would be really cool lol

[zenith relic]

Is gonna be Lilligant she needs to get in we don't wanna disapoint Petilil of her dream

[tidal ridge]

Honestly all I want is one more of my top 20 in and I’ll be satisfied

[violet pawn]

You haven't gotten even one??

[tidal ridge]

No I got 9 so far

[fleet hull]

May be Aurorus that’s a mon I’ve seen everyone actively support

[prime dust]

the blitz isn't about popularity though

[violet pawn]

oh sorry I missed the 'more' in there

[terse fable]

Aurorus has a good shot besides popularity though to be fair

[tidal ridge]

Yeah the point of the blitz is taking lesser popular pokemon who have the most potential

[prime dust]

its about some of Frogmans' favorites and ones he thinks would make a good addition to the game [in some fashion]

[graceful torrent]

People would not care for aurorus as much if tyrantrum didn’t get in

[fleet hull]

“According to Toad the final announcement will be a pokemon “everyone likes” “

[prime dust]

that's half because they are a pair

[graceful torrent]

Correct

[prime dust]

there would still be some want for Aurorus due to the ice typing

[silk narwhal]

About 2 hours left

[prime dust]

since that is a type we currently don't have a lot of

[tidal ridge]

Kiwi just kinda announces the new pokemon whenever she feels like it

[silk narwhal]

Kiwi is online

[outer matrix]

9 PST time is when it gets revealed?

[last pecan]

nobody will be upset with the last reveal

[white meadow]

I did want it from the beginning

[prime dust]

someone will be upset, that is a given

[last pecan]

i can say that with confidence ngl

[white meadow]

And what if I am

[terse fable]

Bruxish confirmed finally

[silk narwhal]

That's impossible tbh

[tidal ridge]

What if I’m upset >:(

[sharp nebula]

serious?

[cold fog]

If it's a Legendary, I'll be upset.

[prime dust]

got it, everyone be upset at the blitz mon

[last pecan]

you wont be once you know what it is

[silk narwhal]

You can't possibly please everyone

[sharp nebula]

nah theyre laying in too hard, its bruxish

[white meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/super-smash-bros-ultimate-everyone-is-here-gif-17099121

even if it is something we really want, just be upset about it

[terse fable]

Bruxish/Luvdisc two piece chicken nugget combo

[graceful torrent]

My soul read is that it’s Liligant

[white meadow]

You could have said fish and chips

[tidal ridge]

We joke but I really do wonder what the hard coded limit is now
Because for the longest time it was 420

[graceful lodge]

gloomy

[terse fable]

FUCK that would've been so much better

[white meadow]

Oh its gen 8

[silk narwhal]

Not what they meant lel

[sharp nebula]

its the answer tho

[silk narwhal]

Wait, i guess it is

[white meadow]

All mons pre gen 8 can get in and have the space to get in

[silk narwhal]

Yeah you're right

[terse fable]

Yea, just dependent if Frog and the team want to add them all and where they'd put them

[cold fog]

For real. It was mind-blowing when we got the announcement of 20-ish new Pokémon added, and now we may very well get at least 40.

[white meadow]

The team is Frog (and his bird)

[hollow creek]

solgaleo confirminado

[terse fable]

That's all you need

[tidal ridge]

It’s probably going to be like 50 new total

[lapis gate]

Frog's addicted. It started as "no new mons", went to "ok maybe 20 if yiu guys do your civic duty" and now it's like "ok just 76 more, i can stop whenever i want, i promise"

[terse fable]

Still think it'd be wild to bring in Alolan forms, just not sure how they'd do that fully yet

[tidal ridge]

Once you add some you gotta add more

[white meadow]

The no new mons was cuz he wasnt able to add any

[outer matrix]

Yo quiero Lurantis y Lilligant; quiero las plantas

[terse fable]

Yes

[white meadow]

Let them be spawns on the Sevii Islands

[tidal ridge]

Alola forms would probably take up separate pokedex slots

Like how Oricorio did

[white meadow]

I know

[cold fog]

453 Pokémon are now in, 356 left to get (If we count Meltan as Gen 7, don't remember if it was in the Poll)

[tidal ridge]

It does since it was in the poll lol

[terse fable]

Everything was in the poll but Clamperl line and something else

[sharp nebula]

comfey i think

[cold fog]

so 356 Pokémon left to get to get a full, up-to-gen7 Pokédex. Nice

[terse fable]

Thank you

[tidal ridge]

Poor Comfey man

[cold fog]

Clamperl wasn't in? why the heck not?

[lapis gate]

Even if we do soehow end up with the entire pre-gen 8 pokedex in IF, it'll probably take intol aroubd this time next year to add this much stuff again, just so the spriters can have enough time to catch up

[terse fable]

Forgot 😂

[tidal ridge]

I guess they just forgot lol

[cold fog]

lol

[white meadow]

Maybe its 100% safe to get in🤷

[robust geyser]

Can someone send me a DM or ping me when the Hint for tonight pokemon is revealed ?

[tidal ridge]

Toad will give us Comfey for free as compensation

[hollow creek]

GUYS... i think today is guzzy day

[robust geyser]

What do you mean it's friday

[violet pawn]

lmfao

[cold fog]

And Confey got forgotten too? Or Triage was too much to code in and Frogman said "Heh, screw Confey"?

[terse fable]

I'll get a little fussy if I don't get my guzzy

[silk narwhal]

If we had all of them, the dex would have 654481 entries

[tidal ridge]

God damn lmao

[cold fog]

Welp. That's a lot of entries. Who would stand up to the challenge of a full Dex?

[silk narwhal]

3.7 times more than the current dex

[white meadow]

Gotta catch them all

[silk narwhal]

Yeah no thanks lmao

[white meadow]

shiny hunting all 654481 of them

[dusty gull]

I mean, you just need to get a shiny of each base pokemon and then you can have any shiny combination you want

[white meadow]

Fused pokemon have 3 diffrent shinys

[outer matrix]

Like how if both the body and head of the fusion were shiny, then that makes a new shiny for the fused Pokémon

[worn loom]

I believe in spheal today

[white meadow]

Yes
Only body shiny
Only head shiny
And body/hed shiny
So 3 diffrent shinys

[glass quail]

Give us Malamar or Cherrim Please!!

Malamar would be a game changer due to easy access to contrary

[cold fog]

Malamar would be great. Too many 'mons I want, not enough spots for everyone.

[white meadow]

Yes Malamar on a plate please
Fried maybe with some nice sauce

[glass quail]

sure you can say "why not lurantis for contrary" but malamar is literally the only pokemon with primary ability contrary

[sturdy breach]

HAs are not hard to get though?

I vastly prefer Lurantis over Malamar personally

[dull root]

Lurantis is a better design too imo

[cold fog]

I just want to turn my PC upside down to Evolve Inkay to Malamar

[dull root]

Plus yeah, malamar makes no sense non-handheld lol

[lofty spindle]

Assuming they are not still broken next version.

[glass quail]

yeah HA and fusions are wonky

[feral bear]

Scizor needs his gf Lurantis ok

I dont make the rules

[white meadow]

I dont think so💀

I mean he is a Mantis
I dont think any Mantis wants to see his GF

[lofty spindle]

Imagine fusing with your girlfriend.

[silk narwhal]

i think that's called marriage

[feral bear]

Oop I guess ur right about that lol

[lofty spindle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQCYJNX_F6s

[feral bear]

Shes vegetarian ok

[silk narwhal]

she's grass type though

[tidal ridge]

I feel like Lurantis has gotta join at some point
If not here or the community vote, it has to be the spriter pick

[feral bear]

https://tenor.com/view/wig-snatched-weave-gif-17445304

Just take it

[hollow creek]

today starts the year of the great guzzy

The great guzzy has come million must guzz

[lofty spindle]

Please guzz in private.

[terse fable]

I want that lil bee up there

ribombee seems to be a lot more popular than i thought

[thin jetty]

put zeraora higher NOW

[sharp nebula]

no i dont think i will

[thin jetty]

[granite monolith]

Amoongus could lead to some cool fusions

[dull root]

The fact that 7/9 of your top picks are waifu bait /j

[sharp nebula]

hey im a lesbian what you gonna do🤷‍♀️

[violet pawn]

that's like if a man said "Hey I'm straight so what you gonna do"

[cold fog]

Almost agreed with your list, 'till I saw Furfrou in the not interested section. Hairy versions of all Pokémon and Hair Trims don't pique your interest? 😦

[sharp nebula]

not at all

[fleet hull]

I want Malamar over Lurantia because we can turn Pokémon upside down and I think that’s funny

[versed maple]

I’m behind on my own brain is oricorio in?

[dull root]

Ye

[terse fable]

Feel like this next reveal's either a legendary or ice type

[robust geyser]

It's been less than five minutes since i last checked and still no reveal

[versed maple]

Hell yeah

[tidal ridge]

Maractus essentially being deconfirmed really sucks tbh

[lofty spindle]

We can just pretend Nocturne is Maractus and make sprites themed around it, has been done before in the early games.

[tidal ridge]

https://tenor.com/view/yes-yas-wwe-scream-gif-17625417

[arctic glacier]

One more Blitz today

[last pecan]

as i said many times but nobody will be upset with this final reveal

[lofty spindle]

We should get the teaser any moment now.

[sharp nebula]

the more you say it, the less i believe it

[last pecan]

there will be celebration all around

for the monkeys finally arrive

[silent acorn]

That's really sus

[feral bear]

Cacnea needs his gf Maractus ok

man imagine fusing with your girlfriend.

[silk narwhal]

since @last pecan said the announcement is something everyone will like (doubt) , i know it won't be necrozma

so i'll go cry

[tidal ridge]

Toad said it too

[feral bear]

The reveal will be an 8 pc chicken mcnugget ok

[tidal ridge]

So it has to be a really popular pick then

[lean wing]

The only way that’s true is if they make a surprise announcement that every Pokémon will actually be added into the game and the whole poll thing was just to screw with us all

[sharp nebula]

its gonna be all the starters

[prime dust]

kiwi said it won't be the starters

[fiery eagle]

I have a gut feeling that we might get bamboozled in some capacity for this one

[tidal ridge]

Nah a lot of people wont like that
Plus it cant happen lol

[terse fable]

All the legendaries

[prime dust]

those "might" get added in later since they held such a high percentage in the polls

[sharp nebula]

things can change my man

[tidal ridge]

That would probably be impossible, but god can you imagine

[tame nebula]

Lilligant

[tidal ridge]

No one would be upset with Lurantis

[lofty spindle]

Imagine this for a Rockruff reveal:

[oak plover]

The final reveal is that you, the trainer, can now fuse

[terse fable]

Finally, I can live out my fantasies of being like Bill

[lofty spindle]

Imagine the slot is a custom one you can freely edit.

[outer matrix]

That seems nearly impossible as you have to consider the movepools and such

[robust geyser]

Kiwi, please reveal something, we're starving for content here

[fleet hull]

Delay the reveal

[sullen quarry]

Jarvis calculate the odds of Eelektross getting in

[terse fable]

0/100 sir

[lofty spindle]

You could limit the number, and it's not like there is a competitive scene.

[tidal ridge]

I mean some people do play it competitively

[fleet hull]

I think the announcement is that they’ll start removing mons, starting with Palossand

[tidal ridge]

Plus it would be impossible to do since this is a community based game and you can’t just “fill in” your own pokemon lol

[cosmic star]

Gastrodon croagunk or dragalge plz 😦

[fallen loom]

Gen 7 bug please

[silk narwhal]

i mean, Kiwi IS online

[terse fable]

*Boruto's Dad

[fleet hull]

[fallen loom]

Naruto = Naught

[last pecan]

nobody will be upset

[tame nebula]

Manifesting Lilligant

[terse fable]

It's Bruxish 100%

[last pecan]

[glacial vigil]

Ok everyone, you heard it

[regal skiff]

Press x to doubt

[silk narwhal]

CAP

[glacial vigil]

Time to be upset for the reveal

[sharp nebula]

it is definitely either bruxish or like basculin or some shit

[terse fable]

Bruxish or Luvdisc, finally it's time, the dark arc

[stuck cave]

[clever atlas]

Sounds like a doggo to me

[tame nebula]

Lilligant.....

The only way I'll be happy

[glacial vigil]

If it is a legendary that isn't cosmog or Cresselia, I will riot

[oak plover]

Wait- universally loved?!

[sullen elbow]

kiwi is typing... 👀

[last pecan]

theres 1 other way for you to be happy, and its the new reveal

[tame nebula]

If it isn't Lilligant I ain't buying

[oak plover]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-swoobat-gif-27580265

[tame nebula]

If it is I owe you an apology

[proud lion]

Necrozma is THE UNIVERSE

[lofty spindle]

Is it happening!?

[tidal ridge]

Oh you suck

[oak plover]

It's swoobat time!! The courting Pokémon has arrived!!

[tame nebula]

[silk narwhal]

[terse fable]

In b4 bee

[regal skiff]

Gimme the samurai bug

[tame nebula]

[last pecan]

universally enjoyed reveal

[glacial vigil]

We all need to grab our pitchforks and be angry, I see

[sturdy breach]

There's only 1 way this will be correct: if all pokemon that aren't in yet are revealed 😄

[last pecan]

it wont because Bruxish would be added

[terse fable]

I don't see what you're trying to say

[clever atlas]

Or froggo does a and adds something noone asked for

[wispy cobalt]

I'm so hype for Bruxish to finally be added

[sturdy breach]

ok, you got me there 🙂

[sharp nebula]

what pokemon havent even been mentioned in this channel

[regal skiff]

Patrat

[proud lion]

[potent venture]

[sharp nebula]

druddigon? nope it has some fans

[sturdy breach]

Thistle dragon has been mentioned quite a bit

[tame nebula]

LILLIGANT

TODAY

LILLIGANT OR BUST

[regal skiff]

Could it make that one monster hunter frontier dragon if fused with the rose pokemon can't remember it's name

[sturdy breach]

I don't personally vibe with the thistle dragon 😄

[tidal ridge]

MANIFEST LURANTIS GRAAAAAH https://tenor.com/bR3UB.gif

[cold fog]

don't remember anyone speaking of Glameow or Purugly, TBH

[silk narwhal]

frontier has a ton of monsters though

[sharp nebula]

there was quite a bit

[oak plover]

https://tenor.com/view/swoobat-pokemon-unova-pokemon-black-and-white-gif-5236530664831753907

[pure flower]

Well. It is pur-ugly

[regal skiff]

The rose dragon that was put in rise

[silk narwhal]

espinas

[clever atlas]

I do
The aromatisse fanboy

[regal skiff]

That's the one

[pure flower]

Are you referring to Espinas?

[prisma willow]

Liligant please.

[pure flower]

Oh yeah. They added that one in MH Rise Sunbreak

[prisma willow]

Top Lil

[pure flower]

Well, Espinas. So it's basically a main series mon now

[regal skiff]

True

[obtuse void]

Still no Spheal 😢

[sharp nebula]

luckily

[inland jewel]

Clearly the revealed pokemon doesn't own an air fryer

[feral bear]

Present!!!!!!

[clever atlas]

Didn't mean you, but yeah you count too ig

[feral bear]

I am the chairman of the IF girlboss division

[mint grotto]

#givepokemonairfryers

[round gale]

Let it be them! 🍨 🍰 🧁

[tame nebula]

The fans of the 3 plant-girl pokemon will be at war if something plant related is dropped as the hint and it isn't clear who it is

[obsidian terrace]

Please I beg of you devs

[mint grotto]

let me eat swirlex

[tame nebula]

The Lilligant Division
The Lurantis Division
The Tsareena Division

[sturdy breach]

There is.... another

[sharp nebula]

i want any/all of them so its fine by me

[tidal ridge]

Kiwi will drop a plant and itll be a fucking warzone between Lurantis, Lilligant and Tsareena supporters

[tame nebula]

The Leavanny Division

[fleet hull]

And the maractus fans be like :3

[frank oxide]

its obv slurpuff

[tame nebula]

And the Maractus Division

[sturdy breach]

Idd.
I'm in the Lurantis/Lilligant division myself

[feral bear]

And then I will have to show up and sacrifice all my jiafei products to save everyone from the grassgirl wars

[obsidian terrace]

I want lurantis the most out of them because it’s the most unique.

[glacial vigil]

I'm here for the chaos it would bring

[tame nebula]

OH MY GOD THERES SO FUCKING MANY I REALIZED

[obsidian terrace]

I don’t see who else it would be

[tidal ridge]

I feel like at least one of the grassgirls have to be in the game
They are extremely popular

[sturdy breach]

I like it's design the most, considering we don't get H-Lilligant.

[obsidian terrace]

Weird no new legendaries have been announced yet

[tame nebula]

Lilligant is my beloved

[feral bear]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-charge-beam-aromatisse-gif-13030741

But we all know its gonna be n*crozma

[obsidian terrace]

I hate this thing but its fusions would be cool

[mint grotto]

i could see many plauge docter fusions

[sharp nebula]

i dont think it is, blaquaza has said its a pokemon he thinks is cool, which im pretty sure necrozma isnt. that said he mightve been lying so

[round gale]

I do feel it's either 👄 🐟 or a Legendary/Mythic

[obsidian terrace]

It’s also nice to have more niche picks to spice up the roster

[fleet hull]

Bruxish would go so insane

[sturdy breach]

I will also once again say: They should have ran with the plague doctor theme more and make it Fairy/Dark or Fairy/Poison.

[feral bear]

Blaq also soft deconfirmed Tsareena SO he is blacklisted in the girlboss company ltd

[mint grotto]

bruxish x magicarp fusion is just a sushi resturant

[white meadow]

I got a great Idea for the Sandygast line with go- I mean Bidoof

[tame nebula]

SOFT DECONFIRM???

[lean wing]

What if the next reveal “making everyone happy” is supposed to be a hint? What Pokémon best represents happiness?

[round gale]

fusions can fix GameFreak's mistake

[feral bear]

I think tee was just making a joke about it being the elemental monkeys lol

[clever atlas]

Chansey?

[sturdy breach]

Wouldn't that be victini?

[tame nebula]

Chat what God exists?

Give me any, I'm gonna PRAY HARD. I AM gonna pray today

[prime dust]

that doesn't make me happy

[tidal ridge]

Maybe, maybe not

[round gale]

I could see that

[mint grotto]

again victini supremicy for the win

[round gale]

I think no matter what people will be disappointed

[regal skiff]

Pray to khorne!

[mint grotto]

pray to the god empror of man kind

[round gale]

But overall I think people are happy with the Blitz. It's just you can't please everyone

[proud lion]

https://tenor.com/view/sucreine-tsareena-amajo-kiawe-kaki-gif-18256339

[prime dust]

that's why i suggested everyone to not be happy about the reveal regardless of what it is

[tame nebula]

Impossible to please the masses

But I would be pleased with Lilligant

[sturdy breach]

I don't think Blaq actually deconfirmed stuff, rather he said he would veto some mons if he could. Cause of rule2 stuff

[oak plover]

My brain chemistry has been altered.

[tame nebula]

I THOUGHT THAT WAS YVELTAL CAUSE I SAW BLACK AND RED BEING STOMPED

[regal skiff]

Nueron activated

[round gale]

Nah I mean there's gonna be people spamming sad and angry emotes as a kneejerk reaction to their fav not getting in. But afterwards people will be happy.

[sturdy breach]

That depends, if their favourites don't get in at all I think people will stay pissed

[hushed otter]

That's true, I'm disappointed whenever I see that it isn't Spheal but I'm just assuming that they're saving the best for last

[mint grotto]

i guess your hopeing they will spheal the deal

[feral bear]

I think we're at the point tho that if we had this event again same time next year, people would pretty much be satisfied

[high haven]

Guessing now that Seviper might not make it as a blitz Mon which makes sense, but I still think they'll be added one way or another

[hushed otter]

EXACTLY

[sturdy breach]

It's why I was initially disappointed with Sharpedo, don't like the mon much.

[fleet hull]

The idea of “A Pokémon everyone likes” means it’s either gonna be disappointed in a funny way or disappointed in a disappointing way

[feral bear]

We got a lot of essentials that were missing this time around, so now thats out of the way lol

[tame nebula]

Same but with Lilligant

[tidal ridge]

Hoping and praying and coping and seething its lurantis or ribombee

[mint grotto]

i just dont want bruxish

[tame nebula]

Lilligant will be today, trust me.

[agile sun]

swirlix line should be dope, not the top 1 in my list but excellent fusion material

[low ether]

I'm just waiting for those monkeys

[sturdy breach]

I'm already happy as is, if I were to have a pick it would be Salazzle/Lurantis/Aurorus

[feral bear]

https://tenor.com/view/aromatisse-perfume-monster-sad-pokemon-amie-pokemon-gif-27404569

[regal skiff]

Wimpod and golisopod I'm praying they get in

[agile sun]

never please

[dull root]

Face it Tsareena fans. Devs will never add Tsareena because it would just be rule two'd instantly

[hushed otter]

Honestly some of the ones added are a bit surprising but I also didn't vote so can't really complain

[tidal ridge]

Here’s my top 20 still

[agile sun]

tsareena = poop

[feral bear]

Duck is off the pr list OFFICIALLY

[tame nebula]

Yknow who is immune to rule 2?

Lilligant. Because she is so wholesome she can never break rule 2 :3 It's just impossible for her to

Only scrunkly

[feral bear]

Girlboss division ATTACK

[hushed otter]

LET HER IN

[lofty spindle]

*gently picks her up

[fleet hull]

People mentioning rule 2 like the playboy bunny mon isn’t already in the game

[sullen elbow]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1137892936915361942/1155097004964319272/SPOILER_ogerpon-pokemon-ogerpon.gif

[oak plover]

So close to a bingo

[dull root]

Liligant actually wouldn't be all that bad i imagine. It's just not all that novel imo

[feral bear]

https://tenor.com/view/lopunny-gardevoir-tsareena-walking-girls-walking-gif-23991302

[agile sun]

we dont need a grass type lopunny sorry

[sturdy breach]

She's already inside my house, I have one in a plant pot (no joke)

[mystic crystal]

Lurantis and Lilligant are just better Tsareena and would be less... problematic too

[white meadow]

proof?

[hushed mantle]

First time i see the animation why is it so goofy 😭😭😭

[dull root]

Exactly, we don't need another

[agile sun]

better design anyways

[sturdy breach]

Ok, not regular Lilligant mind you 🙂

[mint grotto]

poor vaporeon look at what fan art did to the water dogo

[hushed mantle]

Vaporeon sprites are wholesome

[white meadow]

still )I wanna see it

[round gale]

If this is true, Slurpuff has a chance!

[lament wedge]

I want Slurpuff so freaking badly

[feral bear]

Liligant and Tsareena are basically the same pokemon just with different outfits tbf

[agile sun]

swirlix is so fucking good

[sterile spoke]

Guys, you really shouldn't be speculating over what I'm saying. I stoke the flames of speculation because it's fun. 😉

Though yes, I do think Slurpuff is cool. 😂

[agile sun]

no

[sharp nebula]

alright more speculation

[tidal ridge]

He also said Ribombee was his most favorite

[sterile spoke]

Less so in terms of usability, but its fusion potential is excellent. 🙂

[tame nebula]

But one is cuter therefore I like it more

[agile sun]

slurpuff is goat talking about really new material of fusions

[feral bear]

Liligant is the kids bop version of Tsareena LOL

[round gale]

Okay we get it 😉 It's NOT slurpuff... 😉 (it totally is)🍰

[agile sun]

we dont need both, another question?

[lean wing]

So a weak Pokémon in terms of battle potential, but cool fusion artwork potential, and will “make everyone happy”

[frank oxide]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-fairy-type-animations-animated-cartoon-gif-10592379

[sterile spoke]

If anyone wants Slurpuff, you're either going to be sorely disappointed or very happy today, one way or the other. 😂

[feral bear]

Both for sure, and all the other missing girlbosses too plz

[lean wing]

Yeah I’m leaning towards that woobat guess

[sterile spoke]

I can tell you one thing, though. 🙂

[high haven]

Add something at your own pace with no outside pressure

[mint grotto]

punt the surpuff

[sterile spoke]

The new announcement isn't a Pokémon. 😛

[fleet hull]

Slurpuff has belly drum unburden it’s great in battle

[frank oxide]

wait,today isnt the final blitz right ?

[sterile spoke]

https://tenor.com/view/chopper-chopper-one-piece-one-piece-tony-tony-chopper-chopper-tasty-gif-208335410989949549

[agile sun]

boss from what lmao

[proud lion]

Imagine if the final blitz is 5 lines for 5 generations

[cinder oasis]

One more tmr I think

[clever atlas]

Yoooo garurumon!

[sterile spoke]

It's not. 😂

[proud lion]

I think today is the last blitz

[mystic crystal]

Slurpuff is honestly my number 1 choice right now; even though I dislike Slurpuff on it's own lol

[sterile spoke]

It is. 🙂

[feral bear]

Its a naruto I KNEW IT

[frank oxide]

we still have 4 poll mons

[sturdy breach]

omg the new reveal IS Megumin

[round gale]

Some great fusion potential

[hushed mantle]

No way we’re getting chopper in if !1!1

[hollow creek]

its the day of the total guzz victory

[silk narwhal]

blitz sprite number 6 done

[fleet hull]

Peashooter???!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

[cinder oasis]

Yeah I know, 4 community polls and the trevenant rush, spriter pick and Blitz pick

[high haven]

Yeah it goes from September 30th to October 6th, it's currently the 6th

[silk narwhal]

no, it's cacnea torture

[frank oxide]

i hope slurpuff,xern and yveltal gets in

[sterile spoke]

I made the inverse of this in my latest batch. 😉

[hushed mantle]

UNPATCH HIS MOUTH NOW!1!!1!2 he can’t talk!1!1

[robust geyser]

What about the 5,5th ?

[silk narwhal]

great minds think alike

[tame nebula]

Not a pokemon?!?!?!? HolY SHIT

WE'RE GETTING FREDDY FAZBEAR

[high haven]

Haha, that's everything I've ever hoped for

[hushed mantle]

Haur haur haur haur haur

[sterile spoke]

You forgot the contest winner raffle, as everyone seems to. 😛

[cinder oasis]

I want my turtle amigo Torkoal and Ludicolo

[proud lion]

I did a blitz entry for every blitz mon line so far

[high haven]

Yesterday was Palossand

[silk narwhal]

the point is that i hate cacturne, mostly because i couldn't figure out the fusion to make. So i just taped his mouth shut and turned him into a balloon

[cinder oasis]

Perhaps I did 😛

[tidal ridge]

Slurpuff and Ribombee pretty much only has a chance in blitz
Lurantis can still win the community vote

[lofty spindle]

Liligant is cuter.
