[robust geyser]

Pikachu is a wombat

Satoshi Tajiri confirmed it

[sharp nebula]

if youre not joking, pretty sure thats not true

[prisma willow]

Liligant when?

[robust geyser]

I'm not joking, pope Francis confirmed i was 101% serious

[clever atlas]

Pope francis high fr

[tame flax]

The person who designed Pikachu said she designed him based off of a squirrel

[dense inlet]

that person really confused a squirrel with a rat then

[honest tartan]

pikachu is an electric rodent, and squirrels are roderns so it checks out

[violet pawn]

pikachu looks nothing like a rat

[honest tartan]

rattata looks more like a rat than pikachu

[dense inlet]

well true but it doesn't make pikachu any less of a rat

[honest tartan]

well it looks similar to both

yellow rats have the most similar color but squirrels fit the body more

[sharp nebula]

🇲🇶

[tame flax]

Pikachu has a squirrels tail

[dense inlet]

tbh it's a mouse, not a rat

and u can't argue with that since it's the pokedex entry

[cinder oasis]

It's a mouse

[honest tartan]

raust

its a raust

[inland jewel]

Speaking of Pikachu, which Pikaclone would be the best?

[honest tartan]

pikachu

[inland jewel]

im partial to pachirisu

[honest tartan]

mimikyu

[fluid fable]

[honest tartan]

i grab my mimikyu and point it at people like a gun and then they all die

[prime dust]

we already have the best one

we don't need more than Mimikyu

Those could be neat

[sand mica]

https://tenor.com/view/skuntank-laughing-skunk-anime-gif-27399290

[thin jetty]

toxicroak is so underrated

i NEED to see him fused with groudon or kyogre to have their orbs there or an electric type with cool effects

[marsh yew]

I quite want a Toxicroak/Bisharp fusion, NGL

Skuntank should stop getting in games that lack Purugly; ffs Glameow only being catchable in pearl is the worst meme ever

[rough hound]

anyone else do the top 50 slots?

[honest tartan]

sure

[dense inlet]

https://tenor.com/view/mimikyu-pokemon-gif-23018263

[honest tartan]

• step 1: Take a photo of the underside of mimikyu
• step 2: Plaster that photo over everything you can (Billboard, Airplane, Commercial, Etc)
• step 3: Figure out what to do all of those points from kills and assists

[cinder oasis]

Dhelmise fr

[rough hound]

the anchor needs to die, enough said

[prisma willow]

Wish we had some examples of some theoretical Liligant fusions.

[meager python]

You cant throw out this hot take and not have a reason

[hushed mantle]

Jokes on you, it’s already dead

[wide ridge]

Dhelmise is a GOAT, im sad it showed up so late in SU/MO that i just didnt have any open slots to use it

[meager python]

I want to know people’s opinions on the WORST mon currently added.

[prisma willow]

Goodra is just a purple Dragonite with worse pre evolutions. We already have too many dragons.

[wide ridge]

thats tough, even if i would say there were no bad picks, Marirene/toxapex gives me bad memories because showdown ^u^;

that being said, dislike of the pokemon itself, im impressed with what people have done with it fusion wise

[white meadow]

Dragonite is the ugly one of those tho

[wide ridge]

you leave my chubby dragons alone : c

[white meadow]

Screenshotted have fun

[white meadow]

Hawlucha
Yes we needed fighting types but I dont like any fusion with it

[hollow quest]

of the new ones or added overall

[meager python]

The new ones confirmed to be coming to IF. both with community votes and mod picks.

[prisma willow]

Noivern also is a terrible pick unless they fix its evolution levels. It's a special Crowbat that evolves from a pokemon with Zubat stats at 48.

[hollow quest]

idk, don't care much for the cacturne line

[white meadow]

But except the late evo the fusions are awesome
Its also worth + the fused side often evolved until than

[silk narwhal]

it's terrible except it isn't

[prisma willow]

It's a good pick crippled by its evolution level.

[silk narwhal]

bro thinks i play the game

[rough hound]

bad mon, enough said

[white meadow]

Also talking about evos isnt petilil useless until nearly level 40 too didnt it evolve with a sun stone

[meager python]

Arguably altaria worse

[prisma willow]

Then have it evolve at 36 like a starter Mon since it has similar stats. A Zubat will not last to 48.

[prisma willow]

Yet it evolves at 32 and has produced some rather impressive fusions that have won me over.

[hollow quest]

you could just slowly grind it up to the appropriate level with other stronger mons

i do think it's a little high but this is nothing new

[white meadow]

Also who says we find it early game

[meager python]

The issue about it is that its ANOTHER flying dragon type, both altaria and noivern werent needed

[white meadow]

Show me good Altarias than

[meager python]

Altaria needs a fairy/dragon typing like its mega

[tropic hatch]

Ok question, i keep seeing sableeye and tyrantrum in fusions and its in my custom battlers folder, does that mean they are in my game? and if so, where do i find them?

[wide ridge]

yeah altaria prob should of had its typing changed for IF

that said, both have produced some badass fusions

[dense inlet]

Imagine a spriter that plays the game

[meager python]

We should ask whoever the devs are to make altaria fairy/dragon*.

Idk if they do balance changes that differ from the actual games though

[hollow quest]

not yet

[silk narwhal]

yeah lmao

[white meadow]

I do

[hollow quest]

the next update will implement all the announced mons in

[white meadow]

Frogman probably dont do that

[tropic hatch]

oh alright thanks bro bro

[meager python]

Thats what I was thinking but we have so many dragon/flying types :(

[dense inlet]

i know they exist, i just jest about it because it was/is very common to find spriters that never played the game or barely did it

[meager python]

Basically just artists

[white meadow]

Also Frogman said Noivern was highest voted mon thats why it came in

[silk narwhal]

literally modders

99% of them don't play the game they mod because they wanna make it perfect first. And they never actually finish

[feral bear]

Theyre only in the play test i believe

[meager python]

Yup

[feral bear]

Altaria fairy/dragon would be absolutely sublime PLEASE do this

[fallen loom]

you know what... it's almost been 2 weeks since the end of the Bonus rush!

[dense inlet]

i do believe frogman will give the fairy dragon for the double fusion

[meager python]

It would make altaria a fun mon.

Cool fusions, unique typing, decent stats

[white meadow]

Megas once got that treatment but he removed it

[dense inlet]

typings are not a thing anymore?

[meager python]

Mega Altaria was fairy/dragon

[dense inlet]

though luck then, get another dragon/flying

[white meadow]

Changing types when fusing for example 2 Gyarados back than it was water/Dark now its only water

[prisma willow]

A lot of megas for one and two stage Pokemon I feel fell into the category of "Wouldn't it be cool if this was just a regular evolution?"

[fallen loom]

Water/Flying

[dense inlet]

yes that's exactly what i was talking about

the mega typing was removed?

[white meadow]

Yes

[meager python]

Literally mega altaria

Mega sableye to

[prisma willow]

Same with Mega Mawhile, Pinsir, Sableye, and Sharpedo

[dense inlet]

i mean it's a fusion game after all so y'all would be able to fix the typing anyways

not a real problem having 5 or 6 dragon/flying

[white meadow]

I love how many in the voting forgot that its a fusion game

[meager python]

Mawhile should just get huge power

Weak stats get good ability

[prisma willow]

It gets sheer force as a hidden ability though

[dense inlet]

anyways all that matters is artistic value tbh

[honest tartan]

False.

[meager python]

Thats not near as strong as huge power

[dense inlet]

this game is carried by sprites and hardcore players like u are used to play with the shittiest things possible and making the most of it

[honest tartan]

Battle value on top - artistic integrity can go to hell if the game needs types
crabominable on top - cry about it

[white meadow]

Isnt your whole mission to do runs with autogen fusions so spriter make them cuz they see them

[feral bear]

Crabominable is trash lol one of the ugliest mons

[dense inlet]

nope, he use autogen out of despise for the blue ones in reality

[honest tartan]

it was but then people just stopped seeing them so i do it for the challenge now
oh and spite

[feral bear]

BUT i respect that ppl like it

[honest tartan]

End autogen discrimination in PIF

[white meadow]

I have a list of your runs from things I do when I have time

• Many spriters dont look in #hall-of-fame cuz 90% of time its just the same 50 fusions

[honest tartan]

people dont really look in #hall-of-fame unless they're pinged or they have a hof to post

[dense inlet]

or to ask what fusion makes luffy from dragon ball z

[white meadow]

I look daily tho

[honest tartan]

You do, others dont

[meager python]

Copium

“How dare people enjoy the game without my express permission!!!!!”

[honest tartan]

also Bellking is not a part of "the shittiest things possible" look at it wtf

[dense inlet]

But its true tho, this game is carried by sprites and a very few members of the playerbase cares enough about viability

[honest tartan]

the only way im gonna stop using autogens is when there are none left

[steel bramble]

Can you name your worst autogen picks?

[white meadow]

someone unironically likes autogens?

[honest tartan]

Look at bellossom/Nidoking and you cannot tell me with a straight face that it is not a good sprite

[steel bramble]

Bellossom Donphan was not great.

I tried that one for a bit though

[honest tartan]

but by far the best one ever is wailord/exeggcute

https://tenor.com/view/xurkitree-gif-9674416

[steel bramble]

Filthy

[white meadow]

where can i go to look at autogen sprites

[steel bramble]

FusionDex

[meager python]

Not really.

Every game is carried by hardcore fans.

This game thrives off of having a unique gimmick providing a unique play experience for an older game.

[honest tartan]

would be nice if we could have more videos from someone with a big audience

[dense inlet]

even more?

[meager python]

Yea IF popped off for a bit because of alpharad but then it died quickly

[dense inlet]

now you're coping. take the spriters away and the game is gone

it's not the fusion gimmick that holds it together, it's the sprites

[honest tartan]

probably would happen when challenge mode comes out in full when all of the kanto and johto final teams are made

[feral bear]

Tbf the spriters are hardcore fans lol

[hollow quest]

take the spriters away and any pixel games are gone...

[white meadow]

tbh im kinda glad that no major youtuber/streamer influenced the vote

[meager python]

Take away the players and the game is gone…
Hes coping hard

[dense inlet]

my brother, people play this game for fusion sprites

[white meadow]

take away the game and the game is gone 😔

[honest tartan]

good thing that [The site that shall not be named] got aware of the vote

[dense inlet]

wtf are you even on about

[meager python]

Why are you so pressed lol

[honest tartan]

they came to fuse their pokemon, the sprites are just a bonus

[meager python]

It isnt that deep. Quit trying to discredit the game because you dont like it.

[surreal chasm]

How is Toxicroak not in the game what

[dense inlet]

yeah i'm sure they all would have stayed for japeal sprites

[steel bramble]

A percentage of all of your perspectives form the truth

[meager python]

Thats like saying people only played pokemon gens 1-5 because of the sprites

Thats why people are doing nuzlockes of the game, doing challenge runs, and having fun because they like the sprites

[dense inlet]

sure, i have more than 30 runs on a game i don't like

[honest tartan]

i have an idea
what if people play PIF... for different reasons???? Crazy right???

[meager python]

Then why tf are you saying its bad

[white meadow]

you play this game because you like pokemon
i play this game because i like creating man made biological horrors

[dense inlet]

and when exactly i have said that?

[surreal chasm]

I think the majority of people who know about PIF know it for the sprites

[meager python]

Why play the game when you can browse the sprite files? Since that’s apparently the only thing that matters

[dense inlet]

I'm saying sprites are the core of this game

[honest tartan]

if you dont like it then.. why are you playing it?

[meager python]

Pokemon infinite sprites

New name just dropped

[dense inlet]

sure there are people who play this game for a lot of reasons, but the custom sprites are the soul of infinite fusion

[feral bear]

Yea im sorry but most people arent playing this game for the competitive or technical aspect lol the sprites definitely are the main reason

[honest tartan]

customs are the easiest way to rope someone into the game but people also play it for the fusions too

[meager python]

People like having new experiences.
Many people started playing because of big youtubers and thought the concept was cool.

[sharp nebula]

what is happening

[surreal chasm]

When I type infinite fusion in youtube so many videos are just just people showcasing cool sprites

[feral bear]

I started playing by seeing a youtuber do it but it was only because the sprites were mad cool, not the youtuber themselves

[meager python]

Thats the modern state of IF content

[surreal chasm]

Why are we having this discussion in #pif-hoenn-discussion again?

[feral bear]

Brain worms

[honest tartan]

because more pokemon = more sprites

[white meadow]

people arguing about the importance of sprites here again

[meager python]

Again?

[dense inlet]

because i said new pokemon should be seen by their art value instead of viability

[meager python]

I dont believe thats the only thing we should look at though.

Art value is good and all, but lots of players dont only look at art.

[honest tartan]

there are tons of good delibird sprites. too bad delibird is trash and then dies instantly

[feral bear]

We should have all pokemon before gen 8 tbh and this wouldnt be a problem

[dense inlet]

still people use it because the game don't require you to play optimal

[surreal chasm]

The sole reason for why I wanted Palossand was to make cool sprites with it lol

[honest tartan]

good thing the new mode is gonna fix that problem

[dense inlet]

i sure hope so

[white meadow]

new mode?

[dense inlet]

Challenge mode

[surreal chasm]

I guess water compaction is kinda cool to have too I guess

[white meadow]

people whose fav pokemon are the strong ones:

[dense inlet]

also why are you jumping on me by saying sprites are the core of this game if the thing that is holding challenge mode the most is that the pokemon don't have custom sprites???????????????

[white meadow]

I know people that love Ledian and weaker mons like that

[feral bear]

Its a non issue, literally just fuse the mon with a stronger one or one that provides coverage lol

[meager python]

I thought we were done with this conversation

[honest tartan]

because they have nothing to do with eachother

[honest tartan]

hes continuing it so i guess not

[obtuse silo]

I think a lot of people like to do fun runs like monotypes etc

[white meadow]

Thats the best Thing with pif

[meager python]

We all arent moving in out beliefs, this isnt going anywhere

[dense inlet]

it's pretty much proof to what I have said

[honest tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/kartana-furfrou-pokemon-sun-moon-gif-19000346

[feral bear]

The whole point of IF is that everything is viable basically

[sharp sphinx]

[white meadow]

but some are more viable than others

That Zangoose was merciful in just removing his coat and nothing else

[glossy osprey]

zangoose was careful not to break rule 2

[high haven]

He's aware

[feral bear]

She literally said "it will come a little over 2 weeks from now" lol how did u interpret that as over the span of two weeks

[untold spire]

Reading literacy is hard to come across in the Pokémon fandom /hj

[lean wing]

To be fair, they could’ve wrote “a little after October 20” which is shorter and simpler than “a little over 2 weeks from now”

[steel bramble]

Leaving it vague also simplifies expectations

"I'll see you soon" "I'll see you tomorrow at 9"

[white meadow]

let us be impatient!

[feral bear]

A little over two weeks from now is a perfectly clear statement to me like idk how that can be misconstrued unless we projected our own desires onto it...

[steel bramble]

Have you ever driven with a back-seat driver?

Heheheh

[dense inlet]

Are we there yet?

[untold spire]

No I’m turning the car around

[high haven]

I'm guessing it's next Saturday when the remaining 4 slots will be revealed

[silk narwhal]

Dude, it really wasn't too clear

I just misinterpreted it, don't start talking about illiteracy

[untold spire]

Hence the tone indicator, I’m just messing around

[cinder oasis]

Well it's true

[silk narwhal]

The tone indicator was half joking, not joking

[drowsy drift]

Announcement tomorrow or next saturday?

[dense inlet]

a little over two weeks can be anything between tomorrow and january if you're lenient enough

[silk narwhal]

In a week

[dry nest]

[feral bear]

But she didnt say that, she said a little over two weeks from now

Meaning in two weeks, from this moment, not OVER the next 2 weeks

Oh i think i misunderstood what u were saying specifically lol but yea what i said still stands, just wrong person my b!

[steel bramble]

https://tenor.com/view/tag-time-is-a-construct-hannibal-buress-gif-15726635

[hidden relic]

Haha nope, next one isn't till next week

[inland jewel]

The span of two weeks is hella ambigious, likes yeah it could have been today, or it could be next week

though to break it down, they did specify that the time will take over 2 weeks

since a little over 2 weeks means you have to wait at the very least 2 weeks, and then some before there is news

[alpine rune]

Wym wait y'all never had a passenger before?

Ok I was dumb, hand over the L

I was watching all the pokemon movies a while back and at the end of the Hoopa movie all the legendaries just fly/swim back. But Groudon has to walk I guess lmao.

Between the two versions, upon release I chose Yveltal over Xerneas. Opinions?

[steep glen]

Yes

[honest tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/yveltal-pokemon-gif-21659848

[sharp sphinx]

I mean sure I prefer yveltal, but xerenas has a lotta fusion potential too via using the horns creatively for staffs wings crown claws whatever and playing with or subverting the life god motif

[sharp sphinx]

imagine groudon just took off into the air with no explanation given

[steel bramble]

fair

[sharp sphinx]

yveltals got the strong clor scheme, (though xerneas has 2 schemes) deathj god otif you can subvert with cute/smol stuff and teh claws and horns that can be used for a lot

[feral bear]

Yveltal is basically just bird darkrai

[mystic rivet]

I really love Xerneas' blue. And geomancy is so broken I love it.

design wise ya can o alotta other stuff with it than darkrai

Please add Skuntank into the game.

[sand mica]

So just add Skuntank and Grumpig then I will have my favorite Pokémon actually used.

[drowsy drift]

grumpig I could see being popular with spriters... not so much with the literal butt face

I love skuntank lol

my guzzlord dreams are diminishing...

[white meadow]

Are there any ultra beasts

[glossy osprey]

no...

[white meadow]

No Kartana or Xurkitree 😔

[glossy osprey]

I guess I'll vote drapion and uhh

[white meadow]

Golisopod 🗣️🗣️🗣️‼️‼️

[glossy osprey]

prepare to take my L

[primal arch]

YVELTAL BROS ITS OVER

[white meadow]

Oh the vote

[grand hull]

WHY NO LEGENDS WHERES DIANCIE

they better have just forgot to add them

[glossy osprey]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[white meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-pachirisu-dance-dancing-happy-gif-4996678

[proud lion]

A lack of legendaries is sus

https://tenor.com/view/futurama-serious-stare-suspicious-gif-5319823

[grand hull]

KIWI WHY MUST YOU DESTROY MY HOPES OF DIANCIE LIKE THIS

[glossy osprey]

guzz despair

[grand hull]

yeah toad its also wierd how theres only silvally or whatever its called

[white meadow]

then we suddenly get necrozma and eternatus

[feral bear]

Told yall we werent getting legends for it

[proud lion]

Considering the leaks, I feel like we will get shadow dropped legendaries

[feral bear]

My brain is amazing i need an octane level

[grand hull]

why silvally and nothng else though

[proud lion]

There are 3 of them, it is a weird case

[feral bear]

Most people dont consider it a legend, even though it canonically is

[grand hull]

since diancie prob isnt getting in im praying for minior and drampa

[mossy parrot]

frogman said he doesnt want to have to rush pokemon like legendaries in, if they were added they would deserve time and effort and cool events, which they wouldnt get if theyre a poll winner, so he asked they not be included in the spriter's vote

[feral bear]

I literally said that before too! Legendaries are waaay more of a commitment

[grand hull]

yeah but theyre so cool 😭

[feral bear]

You cant just put it on a route and be done it needs like a quest and such

[proud lion]

What about Mythicals

[feral bear]

Same deal

Theyre basically the same thing

[grand hull]

but then again thats just the sproter vote they could get in the last 4 (although unlikely)

but that makes sense ans to why silvallys there cause you can just find him in a pokeball in a drawer

[white meadow]

necrozma would be a really good addition

[grand hull]

diancie would too

[white meadow]

necrozma head fusions like dawn wings and dusk mane necrozma

basically give the body pokemon necrozma armor, then necrozma/torterra might have that ultra city on its back

Yeah for example with some sort of prism thingy to spawn him where you need to find 3 or 4 missing ones

Ultra Megalopolis, that's the city's name

[unkempt stone]

So if pokemon forms are in the game, does that mean every unown now exist

[forest vapor]

sobs lycanroc in spriters choice so def not one of the upcoming 4 left

[mossy parrot]

i just deleted sylvally and type null from the poll i didnt know they were legendary lmfao

[forest vapor]

I didn't think they were considered legendary

More like pseudo

[white meadow]

They are legendars

[glossy osprey]

are there any non legendary mons that arent in this poll but were in the previous one?

[sharp sphinx]

the ones that got in already 😛

[hushed mantle]

The starters

[sharp sphinx]

so if the spriters pick something thats in the remaining 4, do we just pick 1 down from normal votes or does it go to next main pick for spriter?

or are all the remaining things legendary

[plush inlet]

How I probably look waiting for Victini to have a chance:

[glossy osprey]

same but with guzzlord

[grand hull]

It doesn’t really matter cause it would just be put in a drawer(probably) like in the anime

(Also cause I kinda wanna see it in the game)

[steel bramble]

Is there any way for us freeloaders to see what is being voted on without being able to participate? 😄

[glossy osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/drapion-drapion-pin-missile-pin-missile-gif-19370662

[hazy pine]

For spriters awards, are all of the mons (besides the legends and ultra beasts and mythical) avaliable for choice or is there a handfull of picks that are being voted on?

[bitter comet]

Hope that the vikavolt line or golisopod get in but it would also be cool for things like gogoat, that seal thing or the hyena or terrier mons to get in

[steel bramble]

I'm in the anti-Mightyena camp here. But I bet some spriters would love it

Pro lions and terriers though

[bitter comet]

Also Toxicroak would be a nice addition

I wonder what the mon Poll looks like

[hushed mantle]

Welp…

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

[feral bear]

Oh snap, i didnt even realize that this basically confirms the last 4 to be kegends LIKE I ALSO SAID

[bitter comet]

Oh no, what is it?

[glossy osprey]

when legend prospects diminish

[hushed mantle]

https://tenor.com/view/funky-cat-gc-slurpuff-lunch-pokemon-gif-1821722096338750857

[bitter comet]

Explain your cryptic gifs to my small mind

[hushed mantle]

The pokemon Slurpuff from Pokemon X/Y is eating a snack while a caption text says “me at lunch” which represents the person who made the gif at lunch

[bitter comet]

Oh, so you’re saying in some cryptic way that you hope it gets added?

[hushed mantle]

Basically yes

[bitter comet]

Well, it would make some nice sprites

[hazy pine]

How does them being in the spriters choice awards stop them from being the last four picks? Are not all of the mons (besides the legends, ultra beast, and mythical) avaliable for choice, or is it just a handfull of mons ib the spriters choice?

[glossy osprey]

🇬 🇺 🇿 🇿 🇱 🇴 🇷 🅱️

[plush inlet]

[bitter comet]

I have almost no preferences for what gets added, and I probably won’t be upset if something I’m kind of cheering for, doesn’t get added, since my favorite evo line already got added a bit back so I’m just really here to watch the chaos

[hazy pine]

It just be that if lycenrock are the last four mons for the community picks, the next in voting order would be revealed instead if lycnrock is the spriters choice awards winner.

[glossy osprey]

fr?

[fair atlas]

Guzzlord wasn't even on the form. Sorry.

[hazy pine]

Maybe? I'm still trying to figure out the quantiy of mons that are available for the spriter choices pick.

[fair atlas]

Neither were any legendaries or starters.

So unless they're saving them for some kinda finale - which I wouldn't put past Kiwi...

[bitter comet]

One question is either Vikavolt or Golisopod on the poll, I don’t want to be passively rooting for nothing after all

[fair atlas]

They were.

[glossy osprey]

Yeah both are in the poll

[bitter comet]

Good good

[hazy pine]

Was minior in the polls?

[fair atlas]

Yes

[bitter comet]

Toxicroak there?

[glossy osprey]

drapion is in the poll which is the one I'm rooting for in this vote

[mossy parrot]

i even added clamperl and comfey, after forgetting to add them in the og poll

[fair atlas]

All Non-starter, non-legendary pokemon not included in the game up to Gen 7 were on the form.

[bitter comet]

That’s good

Can’t wait to see what gets added

[fair atlas]

No Ultra Beasts, though

[glossy osprey]

clamperl line is promising since we get 2 final evos for 1 slot

[hazy pine]

@fair atlas Oh okay, that makes sense. So it really is anyones win there i guess.

[bitter comet]

There will obviously be some favorites

Because even though I’m rooting for bug types, I have a feeling one of the more popular typed Pokémon will be added

[fair atlas]

( TAT) I just want my Spheal friend in the game

[plush inlet]

Victini should be in IF and I will die on that hill. The last reveal could be revealed and I will still advocate for my apple bunny if I have to. I'm dedicated to my favorite macaron muncher and nothing else.

[bitter comet]

What do you guys predict will be added from a reasonable point of view based on what the fandom likes the most and not your own personal opinions?

[fair atlas]

Spheal. Still. ( owo)

[potent venture]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-legends-arceus-legends-arceus-pokemon-spheal-they-see-me-rollin-gif-24795367

[hazy pine]

I think lycenrock is pretty popular, so i could see them being added, but i have no idea how their going to handle the evolutions. Its like, their tectically the same mon but also have enough differences that really tests the boundary of what a form mon is.

[fair atlas]

\(owo )/ For all we know, Kiwi might just say "Y'know what? ALL of those pokemon are going in the game because I say so!"

I'm joking, of course, but could you imagine

[zealous flint]

Vote pearlkia

[bitter comet]

We already have the two Pokémon that make that fusion.

Get me a harpoon

Sorry, I just don’t like its design. The lipstick, blockhead and blonde hair is a too much of a drawback

we need the 🅱️ ultra 🅱️ east

[fallen loom]

vote Wimpbee

[fair atlas]

There weren't any ultra beasts, though...

[glossy osprey]

Ik I'm just coping

[zealous flint]

Just realized there wasnt any legends or mythicals

[dull gulch]

magearna

[fallen loom]

last 4 votemon could be

[white meadow]

elesquirrel pokemon

[glossy osprey]

calling it now last 4 are xyz trio and necrobama

[fallen loom]

no

[white meadow]

zygarde has too many forms

[fair atlas]

No starters either so no Serperior, sadly.

[white meadow]

My Snivy :c

technically speaking, the XY zygarde is 50 smaller pokemon cell things

[dull gulch]

the results are ready?

[hazy pine]

Wasn't the starters removed from the overall voting general early on?

[white meadow]

no, it's 50

the zygarde in XY is 50 of the cells combined

[fallen loom]

so there are 12 sprites per person? Does that mean voter's choice will have 12 more mon?

[rain gust]

I was absolutely brutal in that vote

[zealous flint]

The starters were deconfirmed a while ago

[zealous flint]

I voted 0 on almost everthing, gave a 3 to my favorites, and a 2 to ones i liked but not all that much

[neat hemlock]

Chikorita + Ekans = make that starter go!

[spice sage]

Nope only the top voted one will be added

[fallen loom]

PLEASE be a Gen 7 bug!

[rain gust]

Same

[bitter comet]

I know it would be great if one of those guys were added

[zealous flint]

Wrong cat gif

[glossy osprey]

lol I saw that cat with the jaw dropped

[spice sage]

But someone's vote can count up to 12*3 points for a Pokemon

[zealous flint]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-meme-gif-24404127

[fallen loom]

so 36?

[fair atlas]

I'm too lazy to make that many sprites...

[bitter comet]

But I just have a premonition that it won’t be, just a premonition I mean, I would like it to be one of them, but I just have a feeling that a more popular mon will be picked

[zealous flint]

Im gonna make a mudkip/amaura line soon

[neat hemlock]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-jump-explosion-gif-12915866

[zealous flint]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-fly-fly-cat-gif-23967129

[bitter comet]

I hope the results prove this premonition wrong tho

[dull root]

My theory has always been that it's a filter. If it was easy to get 12x vote power everyone would get it and then it would just be back to a regular vote

[zealous flint]

Lyranroc wasnt in the vote and neither was necrozma, so i feel like a lot of pokemon have a better chance of getting in now

[fallen loom]

More popular as in Rockruff or more popular as in Charizard X?

[neat hemlock]

Are there any quadrapedeal rabbits in pokemon?

[feral bear]

I feel like most ppl r doing all 12 regardless of if they actually want to tho

[fallen loom]

Nidoran kinda

[bitter comet]

More popular as in more popular than my beloved bugs

[neat hemlock]

I guess... So, nidoran fusions for that bnyuu nonsense

[fallen loom]

so normie votes :/

[dull root]

There's a good amount of people who are fatigued/ giving up/ just won't because based

[feral bear]

I didnt want to do palossand line or toxapex line so i feel that

[bitter comet]

I just hope us talking about it in the chat, will influence the people who actually can vote

[neat hemlock]

Like these?

[fallen loom]

dang it, it better be a Gen 7 Pokémon

[bitter comet]

I’d even accept the old man dragon thing

[glossy osprey]

not gonna lie the golisopod sprite in the poll goes hard, I could see some crazy fusions with it

[feral bear]

https://tenor.com/view/tsareena-sucreine-amajo-pokemon-sunbathe-gif-18274808

[fallen loom]

I'd rather the turtle than old dragon

[silent acorn]

TIME TO VOTE BEACHES

[bitter comet]

I am I’m hoping it for it because I read a pokepasta right before joining the server lol

[silent acorn]

Whatchu votin'?

[feral bear]

Mon u BETTA give tsareena and aromatisse 3s

[silent acorn]

Can't, I am not a spriter lol

[fallen loom]

eww, why? Tsareena is boring mono Grass (yes we need more Grass, but I hate that it's not part Fighting)

[silent acorn]

But I approve tsareena as a choice

[dull root]

I gave them 0s

[feral bear]

Give them 3s in ur heart pls

[silent acorn]

I did. Don't worry I approve take my unvalid vote to make yours stronger

[dull root]

Lurantis is better in every way + contrary (to be clear, not trying to inflame just be funni)

[fallen loom]

yeah I like Lurantis more than thicc lady plant

[silent acorn]

To be honest If I somehow manage to focus my heart into finishing one I had I will try and vote. But at the moment rough for me
I approve tsareena, lurantis and lilligant. Any of those 3 make me happy

[feral bear]

I also gave Lurantis a 3!

[mossy parrot]

i would 100% do that but alas i dont decide anything game-related im just a messenger

[feral bear]

Dont pit the girls against each other!!!

[bitter comet]

I would art to get a vote, but alas, I cannot art

[silent acorn]

I want them all, but there is one, praying for one of em

[fallen loom]

Tasreena is kinda basic though, it's just Buneary but a plant and has thighs

[mossy parrot]

you can learn! #spriting-guidelines

[silent acorn]

Thank you for the incentive kiwi. You right

[dull root]

Also, I love that people are so rabid about what pokemon get in now considering we'll probably get most of em down the line... Maybe... idk? But new mons won't break the game so we'll see

[bitter comet]

I would have to learn pixel, art shading

[feral bear]

Making splices is super easy!

[fallen loom]

man please just vote for Golisopod

also did anyone do a Ribombee sprite?

[bitter comet]

I don’t even know how to do regular shading properly

[silent acorn]

Mostly trying picking similar colors to match a specific spot for the lighting I think

[fair atlas]

Bruh if I can do it anyone can do it

[silent acorn]

On mobile it's a beach ass but on pc I heard it's easier

[dull root]

Surprisingly. Pixel art is way easier to shade than regular digital art. In my exp at least

[glossy osprey]

drapion golisopod eelectrosss kommo or carnivine I hope to see one of them as winner of this poll

[fallen loom]

also NO PILLOW SHADING

[bitter comet]

My issue has always been deciding which spot exactly is right or how much is enough

[mossy parrot]

you dont need to shade if you do basic splices, just mush the existing sprites together

[dull root]

Also, you get the colours free you don't have to try and figure out what colours to use

[fallen loom]

so no Ribombee to vote for?

[fair atlas]

Oh they're there too

[silent acorn]

Hm.

[mossy parrot]

slap a quagsire face on anything, recolor it blue, call it a day

[fair atlas]

90% of "fusing" is splicing pieces together, recoloring it, and boom!

[fallen loom]

man, I hope it's not just a bunch of thirsty guys voting, because otherwise we'll end up with a mono Grass type

[feral bear]

Kommoo was deconfirmed thank GOD

[fair atlas]

Until you discover the horror that is making a Cofagrigus fusion ( o_o)

[bitter comet]

Oh interesting

[feral bear]

Not a thirsry guy, but a girlboss enjoyer!!!!

[fallen loom]

That isn't a good thing considering how few Fighting Types there are...

[fair atlas]

Oh no, Kommo-o was on the form...

[bitter comet]

That sucks I would be hoping to make a Magnus archives reference with it.(I don’t know why the computer added that last part that I removed)

[dull root]

Hey, Lurantis isn't becasue thirsty. I just like pink and green

[fair atlas]

It's specifically because Cofagrigus is usually sideways and crooked.

[fallen loom]

so not Leavanny?

[feral bear]

Leavanny suuucks

[fair atlas]

So trying to put something else's face on it is

[dull root]

If you're interested I can try to coach you through the spriting process sometime. But I'm also very busy idk

[feral bear]

Leavanny failed the entrance exam to girlboss academy

[silent acorn]

Is it really?? THANK GOD

[dull root]

Why is Kommo-o bad?

[bitter comet]

Maybe I wouldn’t want to burden you, especially since you’re busy

[feral bear]

Because its LAME

[silent acorn]

No offense but that's just another one for the big amount we have

[fair atlas]

Kommo-o was on the form, though...

[bitter comet]

Because it’s over popular and a pseudo legendary so people would be more inclined to pick it over other things

[dull root]

I guess I get the dragon angle

[feral bear]

Ugliest pseudo with baxcalibur

[fair atlas]

Weird...

[silent acorn]

Also not gonna lie I can imagine one good monster hunter fusion and then everything else being a pain to make

Its mostly the shape that makes it in my opinion a pain to use

[dull root]

Dragonite is one of the ugliest pseudo's don't even lie (only half joking)

[silent acorn]

I mean dragonite is not my favorite but it has its aesthethic. Kommo-o just feels odd.

[fair atlas]

Dragonite isn't ugly it's just tonally wrong for its line

[dull root]

It would more be a matter of: can I find the time before the 20th, then: can I find the time at all

It wouldn't be a burden either

[bitter comet]

Ah

[dull root]

Kommo-o is peak aesthethic. You guys just don't see it /s

[silent acorn]

Well kommo-o feels off as parts of its scales just sorta... Float alongside it... Like I haven't see many creatures that have that

Arms are fine is the loose ones around the legs that feel... Out of place

[silent acorn]

like more armored scales attached to body less loose scales floating on nothing

[bitter comet]

Personally, I’m fine with its design, but I have a feeling it would detract from mons I would like to see in the game more

[silent acorn]

I think it's fine but not mindblowing

[dull root]

Fair lol, it's not exactly the best pick ever

[silent acorn]

You got stuff like lurantis being a nice one having contrary, malamar has it too, I would want it but nah.

[glossy osprey]

I think best pick from this poll would be golisopod

[silent acorn]

Golisopod is just a guarantee solid pick

Also leaves space on the community slot for something else. We know golisopod is crazy nice to look at it

[feral bear]

The scales honestly look sooo bad i genuinely cannot understand how anyone likes the design

[silent acorn]

Trust me I don't, it's a quirk of it being the pseudo on the second 3d game

Its less noticeable on 2d but I don't love it.

[dull root]

I can't imagine picking Golisopod over Lurantis

[feral bear]

Like they shouod be fully attached to the body, have you ever seen a tambourine or the scaled belts that belly dancers wear? They cant clang and make the noise if theyre hanging free

[silent acorn]

I mean you got tsareena, Lilligant (quiver dance sucks your hp), lurantis and golisopod they are all solid picks. Only tsareena is the bigger one of them.

[sand mica]

Make sure to vote for Skuntank in the new poll!

[feral bear]

Its just a bad design, they could have made his body covered in the scales like a hedgehog or like armadillo or like an ankylosaur even

[silent acorn]

I would love that, but not gamefreak made the funny decision since it's a sound pokemon

I really wonder what will come from the poll

There is a high chance for any random one I don't know

I mean there is monkes.... So... What if I made a sprite to give them a 3?

To be honest even if I voted I think it's pretty obvious I would go with girlgang more than anything

[dull root]

Pretty sure Kommo-o's armor is visually suposed to be, well... Armor? So the skirt is a skirt, and therefore hangs

[feral bear]

Hes supposed to be clad in scales lke a tambourine and make a specific noise, that noise cant be made if his scales r hanging like that tho

[feral bear]

Do it!!!! Kiwi said that if u arent a spriter u can ping her in the thread for the sprite u make and she will include it so u can vote!

[silent acorn]

Hang on the back scales are supposed to be a skirt??? That look like not skirt that looks like some weird ribbon thingies

Hm. Hmmmm... Ok. Gonna try but I have to see

[dull root]

Pretty sure they're meant to resemble something like this? Could be wrong

[dull root]

See. I would agree. But Pokemon do weirder things all the time so

[feral bear]

stares angrily at walking wake

[dull root]

Is that positive or negative? lol. I actually quite like Walking wake

Maybe I just have bad takes

[feral bear]

No ur allowed to like what u like i just have very srrong opinions 😅

Its me hi im the problem its me

[forest vapor]

Any pokemon that were announced already (sableye through aurorus) aren't selectable at all on the poll. But I don't know if they left the unannounced ones on this poll too, if they did leave them to hide the results then they would probably just skip them and pick from what's left over

[brisk vessel]

Why does the spriter vote have no mythicals

[dull root]

Becasue they want to do them justice if they do ever get in

[feral bear]

Kiwi posted a thing about it hol up

[dull root]

#pif-hoenn-discussion message

[hazy pine]

The frogman didn't want them to be included as they would have wanted to give them in game special events to obtain them and at this point, they don't have anything prepared for them yet.

[brisk vessel]

Then at least that confirms the last 4 vote picks are legendaries

[feral bear]

I been preaching and praying and saying

[dull root]

How?

[brisk vessel]

If they are going to have events planned for them

[feral bear]

I would be so gagged if we werent getring the gen 7 crew, theyre the only box legends missing even

[brisk vessel]

1. It lines up with their placement in the dex
2. It's the only reason why they have been specifically saving those slots for last (so there's time to prepare all the events)
3. Generates hype

[dull root]

I mean, maybe it's trolling but they said they won't come from a poll. The original vote is a poll

[brisk vessel]

Now to hope and pray my reddit post got Meloetta enough votes

[eager quarry]

Nvm i misread that again oops

I should probably start making sprites to get those incredible 3 times something simisear votes after all this time

[dull root]

Also, they're probably saving the dex entries because they're half implememted/ for organizational purposes, the vote mons did techically come first

[brisk vessel]

I'm not gonna make a Mareanie anymore

The only reason I did the blitz was to make my vote for melo matter
But now that mythicals and Legends are excluded from the spriter pick I have no more motive

[glossy osprey]

vote guzz- uh I mean vote golisopod

[feral bear]

Yea bruh moment feels the same way as well

[brisk vessel]

The only reason they would already be partly implemented is cuz they are legendaries/mythicals and as such would need prior planning

[hazy pine]

@brisk vessel Meloetta wouldive had wanted you to vote for minior, trust me, it told me this last week /s

[eager quarry]

I got burnt out but i think i technically have 7 ideas for blitz mons
Dont rlly care too much in the end though

[brisk vessel]

Too bad I voted Archeops

[feral bear]

And the girls too 💅

[hazy pine]

lol fair enough

[brisk vessel]

Tsareena got a decent score 👍

[feral bear]

*gorlz

[cinder oasis]

I gave all the girls like a 1-2 probably, torkoals the goat

[brisk vessel]

Since it's normal mons only for the spriter pick I'm voting my man Archeops the most

[hushed mantle]

I’m voting slurpuff, minior and gourgeist

[thorny ferry]

do I even have to say which one I am going to vote for?

[brisk vessel]

Can you also give Archeops a 3

[cinder oasis]

Vote Torkoal and Golisopod fr

[white meadow]

I did lol

[cinder oasis]

Hurray

[winged garnet]

Voooote

Golisopod

[white meadow]

Sounds Like something Guzma would say

[eager quarry]

you should give simisear a 3 because it will be really ironic and funny
and it wont win so what could go wrong

bruxish is not needed. we already have jynx for big lips.

little did matpatl know that i got a screenshot of the spriter poll for bruxish. It turns out they're the only one that has a negative 1 option

[rocky condor]

You think someone actually tried to do this before they realized just how many people voted, so it wouldn't matter?

[honest tartan]

that mindset won't go well when (that place that shall not be mentioned) realized an online poll is going on

[thorny ferry]

did someone actually try that? lol

we need more weather options tbh
now if only sandstorm wasnt bound to a pseudo legend that only gets it at LEVEL 55

also they would need to have contributed sprites

[vague oar]

Lmao

[honest tartan]

• 1: luvdisk

[rocky condor]

ok but i rebuttal. Chatot. Source: i made it the fuck up. Give me chatot.

[vague oar]

We all need to vote Torkoal ||Theres a surprise of it gets in please trust me||

[vague oar]

Chatot would be cool, it was on my first team ever, but Torkoal is necessary, trust me

[vague oar]

||Source: My uncle works at Forgman||

[cinder oasis]

I need torkoal as well

[rocky condor]

Honestly my need for chatot to get in spread out from pmd brainrot, to me just unironically liking the bird's design, to realizing just how much potential they have. I mean they got music note fusions, pmd fusions, tropical fusions, pirate fusions (pirates always have parrots), and just general parrot fusions.

So ye, chatot's also necessary

[cinder oasis]

https://tenor.com/view/tonton-friends-sleep-goodnight-bedtime-gif-19151888

I support the Simisear agenda 🙏 even though it's unlikely

[agile olive]

same

[rocky condor]

Oh wait shit yeah that's right. Since noivern's in, chatot has an even BETTER reason to get in

[cinder oasis]

It's because it's one pokemon instead of 20, I would give like 2-3 pokemon a 3

Nah

liar.

[obsidian pagoda]

My #1 votes are for Musharna and Munna (for obvious reasons, I'm Team Baku), and the Nuzleaf line! Imagine how cool the tengulike designs would be for fusions!

And Seedot, Nuzleaf, and Shiftry are all very unique from each other 🙂

[vague oar]

Torkoal, Toxicroak, Spheal, Tropius, Camerupt, Crabominable, Drapion, Skuntank, all 3
Idk which others tho

[eager quarry]

if the simisear sweep doesnt pan out, then scrafty and minior are acceptable as well
actually theres a bunch but im too lazy to list them all

I support this because Hypno

I like the monkeys but there not worth 6 slots

[obsidian pagoda]

tbh I mostly support Musharna because of Hypno

Musharna/Hypno fusion would be so cute and fitting 🙂

[vague oar]

I would actually be okay with the Muna line, the colors are cool and I’ll be able to use a lot of sfx
Gave it a 3

[rough hound]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-pokémon-croagunk-king-throne-gif-16367260035413576996

[obsidian terrace]

See i’m the opposite. Only room on the throne for 1 baku (although Hypno isn’t really one, just Drowzee. Hypno is a troll)

[obsidian pagoda]

Imagine they make yet another baku line in gen 10

[silk narwhal]

Uhhhhhhh I'm confused
If i vote now and make the three remaining sprites later, will they still count?

[craggy nexus]

yup

[silk narwhal]

Alright
Your name is so dark i can't even read it, which means you're trustworthy

[drowsy drift]

imagine if they made a tapir pokemon with 0 connection to baku

https://tenor.com/view/tapir-gif-25628871

[obsidian pagoda]

I was gonna say maybe Heatmor could be adjacent but then my mind was blown when I learned:

"A tapir may look like a pig or anteater, but they aren't. Instead, tapirs are related to rhinos and horses."

[rocky condor]

what is that thing and why do i love it already

[drowsy drift]

it's a young Malayan Tapir

[rocky condor]

also its nose looks like a shotgun

[drowsy drift]

left is adult, child on the right. they lose the stripes as they get older

[alpine rune]

I mean, you're on team Hypno, isn't Hypno line basically bipedal tapirs?

[rocky condor]

i love them

[drowsy drift]

they are very silly

definitely the most all-rounder build for a mammal

[obsidian pagoda]

Oh yeah but Moon had mentioned one not connected to the baku- in this case Hypno and Musharna's lines are

Also Moon you might like Drowzee/Vulpix!

[drowsy drift]

ooooh I do love it

[woven maple]

Question regarding Aurorus for anyone with the knowledge to answer.
Snow Warning is its hidden ability, but the only ways I know of getting a mon with a hidden ability are outbreaks or ability balls, which both require encountering it in the wild.
So far, all fossil encounters in the game are gift encounters that you revive at Pewter or Cinnabar.
Is there any process in the game that lets you change a pokemon you already have to get its hidden ability? Will one be added in the update? Will Aurorus be encounterable in the wild? Or will it just be stuck with Refrigerate?

[silk narwhal]

@brisk vessel did you vote

[odd current]

the ability patch is in the game. i think you can buy it somewhere near crimson city

[woven maple]

Ability capsule only switches between two regular abilities, no?

[odd current]

the ability patch is a different item. it gives your mon its hidden ability

I don't know why game freak didn't call it the "Hidden ability capsule" instead because it's kinda confusing

[woven maple]

Damn I can't find that anywhere in the wiki

Thanks!

[odd current]

I hope i'm not misremembering

[obsidian terrace]

I love Drowzee but really do not like tapirs irl

[agile sun]

vote for lycanroc bro, you can use your power yet 🤝

[brisk vessel]

No legends or mythicals in the thing 🥹 (I gave golisopod and Archeops 3s)

[brisk vessel]

Idr what I gave lycanroc but I know it was higher than 0 (I gave a lot of 0s this time around )

[cyan hare]

So i dont get it is the spriter poll extra or is it for the final 4?

[brisk vessel]

Its extra

[alpine rune]

UwU what's this

Wym by 12 sprites, do we have to make all 12 mons basically?

[silk narwhal]

WHAT THE FUCK WDYM

WHAT'S THE POINT, I STARTED MAKING THE SPRITES JUST TO VOTE FOR MELOETTA

[alpine rune]

Yea there's no legends in the poll

[silk narwhal]

No I'm serious what the shit, they should have told us

I wasted my time

[alpine rune]

We all did tbf

[silk narwhal]

Alright that's it, we gotta protest

[alpine rune]

Eh, Golisopod is still in the list, might take a shot

[bitter comet]

Hope it gets in, It’s one of the few Pokémon. I actually have a stronger stance on.

[alpine rune]

But ain't no way I'm making 12 sprites, so I'ma leave the poll

[steel bramble]

Boutta get a spriter's strike in here

[silk narwhal]

Literally THE ONLY REASON i spent like, 20 hours making sprites was voting for meloetta.
They never mentioned mythicals and legendaries not being in, i literally wasted my time

[steel bramble]

https://tenor.com/view/thinking-butters-stotch-south-park-s12e14-the-ungroundable-gif-22808163

[alpine rune]

I like how people talks a lot about how Meloetta here

I wanted zygarde but no one is interested

Someone mentions Meloetta the whole gang pops up

[steel bramble]

no idea who Meloetta is Zygarde is like some green cell dude right?

[silk narwhal]

WHAT

[bitter comet]

Humanoid music mythical/legendary Pokémon

[dull root]

The no legends decision was like just made afaik. According to Kiwi they would have told people if they could have

[digital ferry]

The reason there aren’t mythicals in the poll is that these are last minute additions, so there isn’t time to make a full event for encountering them before the update drops. But since the game’s code has been improved, it’s possible that new mons could be added in the future

There’s also still 4 new mons left to be revealed iirc, and it’s likely at least some of them will be legendaries

[alpine rune]

Y'all really do be falling for this guy's joke huh?

[steel bramble]

I've never seen Meloetta. I've at least seen Zygarde, I think

I played the DS games, I anticipated Zygarde at least to some degree, as I expected there to be a Z game

[silk narwhal]

I don't care, they should have told us beforehand

[brisk vessel]

Same

[digital ferry]

I like Zygarde, I just think it’s neat, tho my rating for it would depend on how its different forms would be implemented

[bitter comet]

I’m kind of glad there weren’t any legendary or mythical Pokémon in this poll tbh because they would’ve attractive too much attention to themselves and regular. Pokémon probably wouldn’t be able to get in.

[silk narwhal]

Yeah, because we still didn't get A SINGLE ONE

[dull root]

Did you read what I said? They couldn't

[brisk vessel]

It sucks but I can understand that frogman wants the legend reveals to be special

Just gotta hold out for hope that meloetta is one of them

[alpine rune]

I mean, back when Frogman didn't specify about multiple forms coming in, I already thought a bunch of fusions

[brazen kernel]

is there a list on what pokemon are added?

[silk narwhal]

Yeah fuck this, I'm not making the three remaining sprites

[digital ferry]

There’s 4 slots left, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they’re all legends tbh. Would explain why they’re being saved for after the blitz

[brisk vessel]

That's my hunch

The last 4 being saved for legendaries and mythicals is literally the Only reason I can think of that they are saving them for after the blitz

[alpine rune]

It's going to just be Lunala line isn't it

[digital ferry]

Oh and just to be clear I don’t have any actual info on this

[brisk vessel]

I've already done 11 sprites so I'm just gonna hope my spriter vote gets Archeops (or Golisopod) in

[dull root]

It better not be

[digital ferry]

I hope not ^^;

[brisk vessel]

If it is I'm killing everyone and leaving

[digital ferry]

Necrozma seems likely based on the play test, but I’m unsure about the other 3

[brazen kernel]

is there a list...

[brisk vessel]

Yea Necrozma is definitely going to be one of the 4
I hope meloetta is another

[dull root]

I suspect Xerneas and Yveltal but idk

[digital ferry]

I think there’s one in the pins

[alpine rune]

I'm thinking of "What can triple fuse"

But yea, felt like the lunala line is inevitable

[digital ferry]

#pif-hoenn-discussion message

[brisk vessel]

XY
Necrozma
Meloetta

That's my ideal

XY can be interchanged with Diancie and Zygarde

[brazen kernel]

no i am talking about like a full on list that has every pokemon that is in the game and such

[silk narwhal]

Wow, 4 out of like, 40 pokemon that are being added
So good

[brazen kernel]

also add litten

[brisk vessel]

Starters are blacklisted

[dull root]

Why do you want so many more legends?

[digital ferry]

I’m hoping if Necrozma is one we won’t get the Cosmog line since they’re 4 slots which means it’d go over. I think I heard some speculation about Nihiligo, but that might just be my UB copium talking ^^;

[alpine rune]

Idk about you but, don't like multiple forms still get different dex entries? Yea frogman did say it doesn't occupy the vote slots but like, the playable zygarde forms are the 10% and 50%, so wouldn't it take 2 dex slots like the case of oricorio?

[brazen kernel]

then cosmog

[silk narwhal]

I don't want "so many" i just feel like 4 are too little

[brazen kernel]

i wonder what the stars look like on other pokemon

[digital ferry]

Starters aren’t getting in this round, but they were so popular that I think there’s a good chance they’ll get in later

[silk narwhal]

Nihilego seems basically confirmed
Somehow

[brazen kernel]

yeah i saw

[digital ferry]

It’s 4/20 technically

[brisk vessel]

[silk narwhal]

"Technically"

[digital ferry]

Since those’re the ones from the main poll

[dull root]

It's probably close to proportional to the amount of basic mons I think. Either way, legends are mostly the boring picks imo. Like I'm sure they'll be great but they're less interesting than normal mons

[alpine rune]

I don't really like UBs that much. I only like shiny pheromosa specifically, but other than that is meg
