Shiny Origin Dialga (Roar of Time) Caught

no spacial rend palkia yet

[lost apex]

my sister had us go raid today for a little bit so i got this one now

[crude holly]

Pokemon Day is on Tuesday.

Mark down y'all calendars.

[open panther]

I see you chose the Diamond Route
I did the same

[open panther]

[lost apex]

oh i did not

but my sister did so we did that one

we didnt have enough time to do palkia for me but like. i do not care so its fine

im just happy she managed to catch it n i didnt have to try n placate her would-be bad mood

[open panther]

i managed to do around 14 raids this weekend. got both dialga and palkia. sadly didn't get the exclusive move for palkia. but i got a shiny roar of time dialga

[opaque skiff]

We have Pokemon Direct in 4 hours

[open panther]

time for the pmd and pokemon park fans to feel pain again

[lost apex]

it's totally a new rangers game i can feel it

[open panther]

[solid mountain]

[open panther]

a third of the presents today is probably gonna be mobile games like pokemon go, sleep and unite (i play all three of these games)

[opaque skiff]

I mean it's like every presents

"ok, here is our...PokemonMastersEXPokemonCafeRemixPokemonGOPokemonUnitePokemonSleep session"

That's 12m 52s

[opaque skiff]

Yup this session has started

Pokemon TCG Mobile

[mint solar]

Anything good so far?

[opaque skiff]

We just got Master Duel but Pokemon

Pokemon TCG Pocket

[mint solar]

[opaque skiff]

Ok we have less than 3 minutes left

[opaque skiff]

Ok some suspects that it is more like Duel Links

Oh one more thing

[mint solar]

Any sign of Unova remakes?

[opaque skiff]

GEN 6

POKEMON Z IS REAL

[mint solar]

Huh, random af

Hopefully it's good

[opaque skiff]

Pokemon Legends Z-A

2025

[mint solar]

Surprised there's no Unova remake announcement

[opaque skiff]

No Unova was surprising, but the fact that they decided to just skip gen 5 and make gen 6 game is more surprising

[mint solar]

Hopefully it's a positive sign

A surprise and minor shakeup to the release schedule is good, because their games need more time to cook

[final valve]

I don't think anyone could've expected that

[open panther]

Finally, Zygarde will have a story

[solid mountain]

it's been 3000 years...

[open panther]

Also ⅔ of the video was just mobile games

[opaque skiff]

https://fxtwitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1762487295859405151

...entirely within Lumiose City?

[open panther]

I don't think half of the city will have the blackout this time

[orchid solar]

an urban open world would be interesting but this has to be on the switch 2

there's no way in HELL the switch can handle this with GF's programming

[final valve]

they did say "releasing simultaneously in 2025"

and simultaneous release doesn't really refer to release dates anymore

[orchid solar]

no

SwIItch launch title

I've foreseen it!

[quartz berry]

finally. Zygarde Has Game

[open panther]

also if pokemon legends z-a is coming out in 2025, first i think it will release in jan 2025 and g10 would release in early 2026

[opaque skiff]

Early? no, it will be november 2026.

[open panther]

i was thinking early cause the last legends game came out in the same year as gen 9

also 2026 february is the 30th year of pokemon

[orchid solar]

they usually target christmas releases

ie novemberish

[open panther]

i didn't know that

[orchid solar]

The last legends game feels like a covid thing

[open panther]

i don't play mainline games
only mobile games

[orchid solar]

remember, it also released like... 2 months after the diamond/pearl remake

which did come out in november

[open panther]

also i got the pokemon sleep gifts now from the stream

10 poke-biscuits are okay but 1000 diamonds is very nice

also got to remember to redeem the unite code for the miradon things

i didn't expect for a pokemon go x pokemon horizons collab for the new season

[orchid solar]

I'd play a pokemon horizon dawn game

[open panther]

i wonder when pokemon go will release galar starters

they went from gen 7 to gen 9

[final valve]

think we'll finally get answers for the ghost girl in lumiose?

[solid mountain]

don't kill me bringi

[jaunty holly]

||megas are fucking back baby!!!!!!!!||

||I really really hope we get some new ones, nintendo if you're gonna spoil us with a new legends game AND pokemon Z please keep up the good work with mega flygon 😭||

spoilers for today's direct

like major

so don't open if u haven't watched it

[orchid solar]

I hope they ||give us fucking megas for the fucking starters you cowards||

[jaunty holly]

||don't put "mega delphox" into my brain, now im gonna cry if we don't get her||

[orchid solar]

||it's just a normal delphox but now the 'dress' is like a victorian era' queen||

[solid mountain]

||mega braxian||

[jaunty holly]

||braixen > delphox||

that message wasnt really a spoiler ill just censor eberything related to this topic tho 😭

[solid mountain]

also
holy shit ||game freak bringing back a mechanic?!?!
what is this, something people have been asking for since SM?!??||

[orchid solar]

||It genuinely annoys me that they didn't give the starts megas. I'm pretty sure they only gave one gen 6 pokemon a mega evolution. What were you thinking?!||

[jaunty holly]

||hearing the mega evo sound at the end made me pog and hold my face like "home alone" I was so flabbergasted||

[jaunty holly]

||iirc, diance is the only gen 6 mon with a mega||

[haughty needle]

Yeah it was only Diancie

[orchid solar]

||ZA apparently takes place in the city, maybe it's not even an RPG, maybe it's a city building game like city skylines 2||

[jaunty holly]

||i think it'll be the same formula as legends arceus||

[jaunty holly]

||this would be way too disappointing for the hype||

[orchid solar]

||it's supposedly all within the city, though||

[jaunty holly]

||how know? we only have like a 20 second clip||

[orchid solar]

||nintendo's twitter said so||

[jaunty holly]

:(

||still hoping out for some open world like LA||

[sage cargo]

||judging by the schmatic city looks very big||

[odd star]

Woohoo I'm excited

[quartz berry]

||kalos legends game means one thing given how LA brought back every gen 4 mon

I like that the pokemon of creation has a type advantage over destruction mon, it has a nice message

pokemon pairs where one is meant to have an advantage over the other, the advantage one should have a type advantage also,,, somehow not all duos do this

looks at darkrai and cresselia

cresselia is supposed to stop darkrai, with what? you gonna calm mind him to death?

[odd star]

Cresselia will destroy Darkrai by showing that they had hands this whole time. I created this example of Darkrai's POV before defeat

[jaunty holly]

nice way to subtle flex your shiny cres, if that's yours

[odd star]

I'm not the chosen one, I just searched for cresselia staring straight at the camera on google so I flexed for someone else out there

[jaunty holly]

cresselia is like princess celestia

only meant to be viewed from the side or 3/4 angle

not fromt

Pretty much 99% of pokemon fans are predicting that snivy will be the grass starter for Pokemon Z-A

[solid mountain]

HAHAHAHA
So in Pokemon Infinite Fusion, they apparently replace the Lake of Rage Gyrados with a fusion of it and Magikarp

oh my god that is some brilliant trolling
you can't even see its face until you fight it

"Right time to get the shiny red Gyra- What the fuck"

[tender summit]

Idk if you're at that part yet (it's been a while since i played it, forgive me), but they also troll you at goldenrod in a similar way

I wont say shit for the specifics, but it happens

[sage cargo]

this Arven guy kinda sucks

[haughty needle]

why

[sage cargo]

idk

just kind of a dick

[ebon crow]

i mean once you realize the game doesnt have normal shinys its easier to guess

[solid mountain]

shhhhh

[solid mountain]

Looking at IronMON rules and this is just funny

[tender summit]

No it does: it very much does

I had a total of 2 shinies I've caught period

The color pallets are all sorts of wack tho

Sadly my save data got wiped for some reason so I can't show what they looked like

[open panther]

The most pokemon you can put in gyms in pokemon go is 20.

I reached the limit when visiting to Indonesia. There was a lot of empty gyms with pokemon there for 1-2 weeks

[opaque skiff]

It is still so hard to believe that we are actually getting Pokemon Z after over a decade

holds shaymin like hamburger

[haughty needle]

takes a bite out of shaymin like hamburger

[sage cargo]

DO NOT

[sage cargo]

that's how you hold him

[jaunty holly]

throws like football

[sage cargo]

it's weird because i see little hedgehog Shaymin as a boy but normal Shaymin is a girl

tramsgender ?

[jaunty holly]

i learned in pokemon mystery dungeon that hamburger shaymin is the normal form

bird shaymin is what they transform into temporarily when they touch a flower

[sage cargo]

good

[jaunty holly]

i always thought the opposite

[sage cargo]

hamburger shaymin is normal

[jaunty holly]

be normal

[sage cargo]

bird shaymin is a mental illness

[jaunty holly]

normal pokemon 🦔
mental illnesses 🦢🦚🦜🐓🕊️🦃

[sage cargo]

HAMBURGER SHAYMIN IS NORMAL

[jaunty holly]

YES???

that's what I'm saying

im gonna nickname my shaymin in game to hamburger now

[sage cargo]

look at this fucker

[jaunty holly]

hamburger shaymin 😭

[sage cargo]

punts him so far he comes back to me

[sage cargo]

i want to kiss his little head

hold him gently like burger

[jaunty holly]

why did nintendo make mythicals so cute and then so impossible to get especially after a certain timeframe

[opaque skiff]

Because they are mythic

[jaunty holly]

shaymin victini mew jirachi manaphy

genetically engineered in a lab to be baby

[opaque skiff]

Phione be like "fml"

[jaunty holly]

phione is a secret third thing

i have a jirachi plushie and it's my pride and joy

[haughty needle]

i wish you told me sooner, i already took a bit and shaymin tasted like tofu
i dont like tofu

[jaunty holly]

that's fine there's hundreds of shaymins

for some reason

[haughty needle]

yeah, at first i thought the legend/mythicals were one of a kind

[jaunty holly]

like 99% of them are

there's also theoretically multiple manaphy, from the same game there's dozens of shaymin

are mystery dungeon games canon? idk

[sage cargo]

there are not dozens of Shaymin there is only one

[haughty needle]

not sure of theres even a canon timeline

[jaunty holly]

mainline games

[haughty needle]

oh, then no PMD is NOT considered mainline

[jaunty holly]

yeah

but can they still be "canon"

there's so much pokemon stuff 😭

unless you adhere to a very specific "only mainline is canon" then it gets reeeally confusing

[opaque skiff]

There are canonically more than a pair of Latis

[jaunty holly]

oh yeah them too

box legendarys atleast are always one of a kind

big boys

[opaque skiff]

Miraidon Koraidon be like

"Uhhh"

[jaunty holly]

close enough

[haughty needle]

the anime is the best you can get with a canonical timeline
gamefreak doesnt rly do much of anything with the timeline of the games, so just go wild with headcanons ig

[jaunty holly]

not the anime

I guess anime can be B canon, things are true unless they're not by A canon standards (mainline games)

and a lot of things in anime would be not canon

[opaque skiff]

There are more than 1 Darkrai based on the Anime

Genderless to be exact

[jaunty holly]

every time i see a clip of the anime online, it does some contradictory bullshit

yeah most legends have blue hair and no pronounce

[sage cargo]

enby royalty

[jaunty holly]

for some reason in mystery dungeon explorers of sky they gender all legendarys

uxie and azelf are he and mesprit is she

manaphy is also he

[haughty needle]

huh, interesting

[sage cargo]

what is Arceus

[jaunty holly]

a deer idk

[haughty needle]

a gen 8 game

[sage cargo]

shut the fuck up

sorry

that was directed at nat btw

[haughty needle]

LMAO

[jaunty holly]

mod abuse

ban him immediately give me the crown

i assume the game calls all legendarys he unless they're too feminine

english localization moment

[sage cargo]

mods ban that guy for 10 seconds

[opaque skiff]

Ogerpon is canonically a girl

Good girl

ok but actually though

[opaque skiff]

[opaque skiff]

People are expecting to see her in Z

[jaunty holly]

what's gaslighting

[jaunty holly]

shell yeah 🐚

[opaque skiff]

Let's gaslight Cap more so they believe that we are real

[sage cargo]

isn't the whole game going to take place in Lumiose City

[jaunty holly]

somehow yes

which I'm honestly not excited for but I'm sure they'll make it work

i assume they'll have some areas that are like grassy and natury still

[opaque skiff]

Pokemon Paris basically

[sage cargo]

i wanted Legends Kyurem i fucking hate Game Freak

more like Fame Greak

[jaunty holly]

you're gonna eat your legends ZA cereal and fucking like it

[haughty needle]

imagine
to kickstart a new line of megas, they start off by giving us
Mega Charizard Z

[opaque skiff]

As I said, Gamefreak said "fuck you America I am skipping you" and moved on to France

[jaunty holly]

I don't see a world where this doesn't happen

[sage cargo]

i havent even eaten my Legends Arceus or Scarlet cereal

[jaunty holly]

that's fine it got soggy

i havnt even finished legends arcrus

[opaque skiff]

Fear of mega incineroar coming true

[jaunty holly]

stop

don't say that

actually

[sage cargo]

im more inclined to play Arceus because i can actually complete the Pokédex without other peoplep

[jaunty holly]

what would mega incin even do to make it worse than it already is?

[haughty needle]

idk make it bulkier and hit harder

[opaque skiff]

By some calculations people think there is a 1/4 chance of inci being the starter for Z

[jaunty holly]

i guess

[sage cargo]

i have never completed a Pokedex in my life

[jaunty holly]

me neither

[jaunty holly]

Bring In Meganium 🗣️

[haughty needle]

finally
Mega Meganium

[sage cargo]

any Magnemite fans in chat

[jaunty holly]

yeah I've seen the charts, any starter that doesn't have another form

[opaque skiff]

We had a few intimidate mega evolves

One is Gyarados

[jaunty holly]

don't most megas change their ability tho

[sage cargo]

Kyurem isn't in Legends Arceus

[opaque skiff]

One was Mawile

Imagine fucking Huge Power Incineroar

[jaunty holly]

just out speed mawile with flamethrower

[jaunty holly]

would be worse i think

[sage cargo]

there are no cute Kyurem gifs they're all scary

[jaunty holly]

incin is horrible because it can pivot in and out quickly and do destruction in its way

[opaque skiff]

Mold Breaker Incineroar

[sage cargo]

nat fetch me cute Kyurem gifs

[jaunty holly]

now you're just trolling

[haughty needle]

but what about: prankster incin

[jaunty holly]

would make it worse

it's fast enough

Honestly I do agree that Mega Inci won't change the meta too much

It is already too good that you wanna use mega on a different mon

But

[haughty needle]

i like to think that, in an act of troll, they make mega incin fire/fighting

[opaque skiff]

What about

Mega Xerneas

[haughty needle]

can its ability be misty surge

[opaque skiff]

Actually it would suck ass

You basically can't use both megastone and Geomancy

[haughty needle]

would a Mega Landorus-T be any good

[open panther]

I love both shaymin formes

Also there is an special research when completed, will give you a shiny shaymin

[haughty needle]

I prefer the sky forme myself

[thorny radish]

sky forme gives protagonist pokemon vibes

[brazen echo]

because it was a protagonist

[thorny radish]

it was probably made before it was used for anything like that tbh

but it and keldeo give strong protagonist vibes

[opaque skiff]

Fun fact: Trick Room has a very weird speed calculating mechanic, which makes Pokemon go slower when they are faster, but also if they are too fast then they go fast again

But also, if they are over too fast, then they start to go slower

In short, it has a speed overflow bug

This "too fast" speed can be achieved with fast Pokemons with speed buffs

very fast pokemons.

[haughty needle]

i think i heard something about regieleki doing smthn like that

[jaunty holly]

deoxys speed with maximum agility boosts surpasses trick room i think

or it might be +6 speed and then a choice scarf

Here's a new Pokestir arrangement.
https://youtu.be/VpUJDbGQbgc?si=X2Mjq_lyNVqVcX-9

[solid mountain]

TIL you can 100% catch Eternatus in a fucking Quick Ball if you throw it on the first turn

also
Ultra Balls are called Hyper Balls in Japanese
and Beast Balls are Ultra Balls in Japanese

[haughty needle]

naruhudo'nt

[solid mountain]

Well since the Ultra Ball was already a thing in English, you can't call the Ultra Beast Ball the "Ultra Ball"

[opaque skiff]

Didn't even realize that English names were different

I find "Hyperball" an intuitive name, since the ball has a big H on it

[solid mountain]

I guess since the H isnt obvious and half a H looks like a U they went with that

Also in Japan the Great Ball is the "Super Ball"

[opaque skiff]

Yeaaa that's more familiar name for me

Monster Ball, Super Ball, Hyper Ball, Master Ball

Also I can see why they used Psychic type instead of calling it ESPer type, but Dark type instead of Evil type makes me slightly confused once in a while

[jaunty holly]

i like dark instead

dark feels much more like an element than evil does, evil is more of an emotion

"we got normal type, fire type, water type, dragon type, electric type, and pissed off type"

[opaque skiff]

Yeah but also

[jaunty holly]

plus (esp recently) not all dark types are evil

[opaque skiff]

"Crunch is a dark type"

"Knock off is a dark type"

[jaunty holly]

cuz theyre mean things to do idk

[opaque skiff]

Some moves don't make much sense if you call them "dark"

[jaunty holly]

why is anything any type

except moves that are explicitly their type, like thunder punch

why is dragon ascent flying type

[opaque skiff]

Its Japanese name is actually an old saying

But it still have dragon in it, so it can still be confusing for sure

[jaunty holly]

it shouldve been like flying press

a dragon/flying move

[opaque skiff]

It's probably more like because Rayquaza rules the sky

[jaunty holly]

yea its def better as a flying move than dragon one

i think

idk, he still invented a completely new tier for being so op

[opaque skiff]

Ultimately the most confusing thing with language in Pokemon is well

Pokemon names

[jaunty holly]

a lot of confusing things are explained by the original language

like splash is a normal type move? and learned by non fishes? but in japan it's called "jump around like a dumb fucking idiot" or something

[opaque skiff]

Yeah it's more like

Bounce, jump, leap, spring

https://fxtwitter.com/plasmaclusterha/status/1786313068278124965

[opaque skiff]

Thou, istg, the worst thing is the one who has the same name

Arceus

[haughty needle]

Are see is

[opaque skiff]

The Arceus pronunciation argument

[haughty needle]

Curse and U-turn also come in mind

[solid mountain]

arcus

[tender summit]

I'm still in the boat of it being pronounced ark-ee-us, cus otherwise, the arc phone would be pronounced "the arse phone"

I know that there's actual connections to mythology

But I dont want to carry around an arse phone everywhere

[jaunty holly]

ive always been team are kee us

it just sounds cooler

i prefer showdown mostly for the single format and how they handle pokemon viability, dont really look at VGC tbh

[solid mountain]

yeah zubat is kind of

[fast rivet]

I just want a Poison type move atm XD

There a bunch of Geodudes in the cave, might grab a few easy levels with Absorb off of them.

i really like crobat, it would be part of my dream six team so to speak

funkily designed cool bat

i would get steamrolled by every single person concerned with actual good teambuilding id just have the ones i think are the coolest

[fast rivet]

I usually build my team that way too, unless I do a special run (like the Type-only playthrough I'm doing rn)

My first run through a game is typically just a normal run and I'll sometimes have an Eevee along I refuse to evolve XD

Oh-kay, well, at least the 4th KO wasn't a Starly.

I got into a trainer battle, they threw out a Shinx and I thought "Oh gods, please don't have Electric moves..." Shinx used Thundershock.

you could play it rn if you wish, it's just in a web-browser

[ancient walrus]

I played infinite fusion

Is fun

[thorny radish]

i assume it only goes up to gen 5

[tender summit]

pokerogue or IF?

[ancient walrus]

Infinite fusion has some gen 7 pokémons

Like Lycanroc or Necrozma

And some gen 6 too

[thorny radish]

pokerogue

[tender summit]

pokerogue has all of them

[thorny radish]

sick

[tender summit]

even like, Legends Arceus

they also have gimmics from each generation

like mega evolutions, dynamaxing, gigantamaxing, terrastalizing, hell, even fusion cores from infinite fusion

[ancient walrus]

Nice

Makes battles spicy

[thorny radish]

sounds like something i'd play then

[tender summit]

also multiple tiers of shinies that literally affect your luck in terms of what you can find

we finally found a game with functional shinies

[thorny radish]

sounds more fun than whatever crap basket of an endgame modern pokemon games gave us

god, losing the battle frontier sucked

[tender summit]

it aint an easy game tho

I'll say that much

Yeah, it's a server thing, they're trying to work on it

I see, its unfortunate but otherwise its pretty fun so far

It is super fun

currently have cottonee zubat azumarill as well

theres shinies in this game ??

Multiple tiers of shinies too

....oops

i read "best VGC pokemon"

[solid mountain]

well it is VGC

[jaunty holly]

I'm gonna guess snorlax and porygon are the top 2

[opaque skiff]

best Kanto mon obviously Flareon 🙃

Note that Dragonite is Kanto

[jaunty holly]

i remember watching the detective Pikachu movie in theaters with my dad and near the end the bad guy was doing some crazy speech about forcing pokemon to their full powerful potential and then evolves his eevee into a flareon . i could not take him seriously after that

i like the fluffyeon but im so sorry it is the absolute worst 'vee competitivley

same vibes as mainline game villains telling you they're going to kill you in real life and then sent out a raticate

[opaque skiff]

Flareon is often called The one and only king

[jaunty holly]

no it's not it's called "fucking finally it got flare blitz"

[opaque skiff]

For how weak it is

[solid mountain]

interesting, he's going to include regional variants
Which, fair

[jaunty holly]

he says kanto not gen 1 specifically ig

[solid mountain]

Hmmm, good point

[jaunty holly]

have any gen 1 regional forms made a big splash?..... Persian?

[solid mountain]

because regional variants are well, region specific

[opaque skiff]

Wolfey is a VGC player so it would be about the official doubles format

[jaunty holly]

oh, ghost marowak had some time in the spotlight

i should just watch the video

[solid mountain]

[jaunty holly]

one last guess

mmm, still gonna go with Porygon and Snorlax being somewhere near the top

[opaque skiff]

lemme see

Right now the most used "Kanto" pokemon in doubles format would be...

[jaunty holly]

no spoilers

[opaque skiff]

No, no I'm just looking at the current used rankings

And it's probably something you didn't expect

[jaunty holly]

slay

you'd be surprised

i love competitive

clefairy #10? should be higher

[opaque skiff]

Well you won't be surprised if your guess of "currently most used Kanto pokemon in doubles format" is Aloran Ninetales

[jaunty holly]

ok I forgot about her

[open panther]

50 dollar bite of oreo

[opaque skiff]

(I'm pretty sure Wolfey is talking about all-time best)

[jaunty holly]

a-ninetails is sooo much more popular than og ninetails i forget they're the same-ish

[opaque skiff]

From the current usage ranking, limiting to Kanto pokemons, #1 is Aloran Ninetales, #2 is Dragonite, and #3 is Clefairy

Pretty obvious picks, ngl

[jaunty holly]

dragonite has to rlly heavily rely on tera, tho

atleast last time I checked

[opaque skiff]

Zapdos unfortunately fell off so hard after Gen 8

[jaunty holly]

you know an gen1 mon has fallen to power creep when they get a regional form

[opaque skiff]

tbf when it got the regional form, it was at its peak

[jaunty holly]

truth

[opaque skiff]

Ditto is Gen 1 and is definitely one of the top tiers

[jaunty holly]

those regional birds wrecked havoc in showdown for a good while

choice scarf ditto is definitely good but i don't think ppl are bringing it to high tier serious events

[opaque skiff]

Ditto is actually #4 Kanto pokemon in the usage ranking rn.

[jaunty holly]

ok but who's #5

[opaque skiff]

Well, fair enough, since the current regulation allows one legendary

[brazen echo]

Jynx

[jaunty holly]

#4 Kanto sounds impressive but how low is that in general

[opaque skiff]

#56

[jaunty holly]

listen im coming from showdown singles

[opaque skiff]

Aloran Ninetales #38, Dragonite #41, Clefairy #43

[jaunty holly]

ooooh

top 10 is all paradox mons n stuff isn't it

[opaque skiff]

Top 1 is

calyrex ice above shadow hurts my head and my heart

[opaque skiff]

Koraidon is higher than Miraidon in singles, but not in doubles

[jaunty holly]

what does ice have above shadow? is it just type advantages?

[opaque skiff]

shadow is way above ice in singles

[jaunty holly]

sun is nice in singles, and electric terrain in doubles is good for your future mons

unless I'm mixing up the names

they're too similar

[opaque skiff]

You are correct.

[jaunty holly]

[opaque skiff]

It seems ice works better with Incineroar than shadow

[jaunty holly]

somehow

doubles vgc too big brain for me

i assumed it's bc shadow is 4x weak to misdrevous shadow ball and ice is only 2x

[opaque skiff]

teammate ranking for ice

for shadow

Does look a lot different

[jaunty holly]

too big brain for me

torkoal?? sun???

[opaque skiff]

Meanwhile Alomomola is still #13 in singles

Standing strong

[jaunty holly]

surprisingly good

it's mostly bc stall and support

high HP, flip turn, wish

[opaque skiff]

From what I've heard Alomomola-Grimmsnarl stall tactic is very good rn

[jaunty holly]

grimmsnarl will probably always be good

prankster mon with bulk, good type, nice move pool and offensive potential

[opaque skiff]

Hey also snep is #2 in singles

[jaunty holly]

snepy

i love the snep bc it's a fast physical sweeper and those are my favs

[opaque skiff]

It's higher than Ogerpon

[jaunty holly]

go meow meow

[opaque skiff]

Literally impossible to get #1 because that one is a fixed spot for the entirety of Gen 9

[jaunty holly]

ok yeah true

#2 is the new #1

[opaque skiff]

Did you know that Flutter Mane has kept its #1 spot in singles usage since the start of this year?

[jaunty holly]

yeah that sounds about right

tho I wonder if flut mane won't be as good anymore after tera goes away

who's fucking pumped for megas to return

[opaque skiff]

It'll be good, thou for official format, people would be more worried about if it will even exist

[jaunty holly]

ok true

paradox mons staying in SV sounds about right, maybe they'll be allowed in late-VGC with nat dex and pokemon home etc

probably just copy pasting and forgot to fix

the idea gets across tho

[solid mountain]

yes that

Didn't notice the L on Lash tho, good one nat

[jaunty holly]

idk if it's meant to be like that in game tho i feel like all words in moves are capitalized

except maybe like, z moves with 11 words in them

[solid mountain]

it's meant to be like that in game
with a big L

[opaque skiff]

G-Max moves sound powerful, but none of them rivals Max Airstream

[jaunty holly]

max airstream shouldve had a damage nerf like the att/SpA boosting fight/poison moves

i remember in singles showdown, whoever dyna'd first was kinda throwing away their win

[opaque skiff]

"So what is the best move when Dynamax is legal"
"Yawn"

[jaunty holly]

everyone sleeps on yawn (pun slightly intended)

it's only annoying when u want your opponent to fall asleep, not swap

[opaque skiff]

"Opponent's Zapdos used Max Lightning"

[jaunty holly]

lightning rod

i remember playing against my friend and his stupid gmax charizard would smoke me every time

bro thought he was Leon

[opaque skiff]

It's insane how lightning rod can literally just cancel the move

It's not even just nullifying the damage

[solid mountain]

yawn is good in Pokerogue

[opaque skiff]

It straight up cancels it

[jaunty holly]

plus boost

[solid mountain]

man Wolfglick does NOT LIKE ||G-Max Charizard|| (spoiler for the video above)
he's ranted about it for like 2 minutes

[opaque skiff]

Only if the almighty Pachirisu existed in gen 8

would've just "nom nom" the Max Lightning

[solid mountain]

when He was needed He did not answer

[opaque skiff]

Fun fact, even when it won the World Championship, one of the main reasons for Pachirisu to be used was to counter Zapdos

[jaunty holly]

with good reason

[haughty needle]

throw a pebble at it

[solid mountain]

i think pokerogue has a hacking problem

[opaque skiff]

Never gonna

[solid mountain]

[solid mountain]

do i want more coverage options or a consistent nuke with Close Combat?

Calculating it online, Fighting, Ghost and Steel is neutral coverage against all Pokemon at least, adding Fire does give me nearly 200 additional Super Effectives, but the problem is that Raging Fury locks you in for several turns

eh fuck it, i'll keep the coverage, I don't really have anything that can use Fire effectively at the moment anyway

[jaunty holly]

good choice

it's good to have a nuke option

[solid mountain]

I forgot I have a Pidgeot with Heat Wave for Fire coverage

[jaunty holly]

that is NOT reliable fire coverage

Also I found out you can cheat the system by just forcefully reloading when you're about to lose: it'll restart that round like nothing happened

DO NOT GET ME STARTED ON THE RIVAL FIGHT

[solid mountain]

Fucking double shiny Mega Ray

cheap ass bastard

[solid mountain]

With 3 steels that Mega Ray is fucked

You straight up NEED a resist

[tender summit]

well, my toge doesn't have steel moves so...

[solid mountain]

It's more about resisting Dragon/Flying than having STAB

[tender summit]

it got spike shield tho

[solid mountain]

It has 4 damn health bars, it is not going to be a easy fight

[tender summit]

you could cheese it with the power of leach seed if you wanted to

[solid mountain]

I did pull a Ferroseed recently...

Doesn't resist Fly, but I could abuse Protect

(Honestly, in hindsight I should have kept Detect on my Yanmega)

Nasty Plot > Protect > Sweep

[tender summit]

oh it didn't even click with me that I'm fighting the elite 4 rn

my kingambit kinda sweeping cus of steel defense + swords dance

[solid mountain]

Yup.

I got the Sinnoh E4 the first time, then the Hoenn one

I think I managed to beat both?

oh wait i think the psychic guy rekt me

Ah, nope. Got both Wallace and Cynthia, nice

best part about fighting the E4 is the free vouchers

"get the fuck outta my way i need to roll more shinies"

[tender summit]

||snorlax hard carried with belly drum||

||I just had to distract eternatus with more tempting targets over snorlax, which i had a lot of||

[tender summit]

[tender summit]

[tender summit]
