In that case, maybe they'd switch back to Triple Finish and Aura Storm.

Triple Finish IS back if I'm not mistaken.

We haven't seen Lucario, but I'm guessing it'll be Aura Storm coming from a briefly Mega Evolved Lucario, like Mewtwo's.

Re: Let's Go: Looks a bit better in motion than I'd thought, but still not really interested in it. The rival is pretty underwhelming. I don't have a problem with friendly rivalsnote , but I think they're overdoing it with this guy. Design is boring, too

Re: Smash: Transformation based final smashes seem to be out, so I'd expect a number of pokemon fighters to be a bit different. Kinda weird that Pokemon Trainer is going to be the only transforming fighter now. But, hey, nice to see Leaf around

People are PISSED at Mew being locked to the Poké Ball Joy-Con. I believe novelty will only get you so far but unless there's been a Mew event in Go, I can only see this getting worse.

[up][up]

We've seen a lot of something between the treehouse and invitational, and they've already confirmed that pretty much all Final Smashes are going to be quick and to the point now, so what Anom's said is pretty reasonable.

But between that, and going "Triple Finish is confirmed" there is a wide gap.

Expecting them, in any case.

[up][up][up] There’s a Mew quest in Go. It’s permanently available to everyone, and only moderately difficult. It only took me a week to finish.

That said you can only get one Mew and it can’t even be transferred for candy, so I’m expecting it to be untransferreable to Let’s Go as well.

[up]Can't recall where, but they've said that the Mew from Go won't work with Let's Go. You'll have to go out buy the ball Joycon.

Yeah, just found out the two Mew can't interact a bit too late. Can't wait for the Internet Backdraft.

I don't expect it to be that bad. Remember that this is Mew, not some new Pokemon. There's been other Mew distributions, and Mew is still available in My Pokemon Ranch.

So this is something that has been bugging me for a while, but are they going to have Genders locked to a specific version, such as say you can only play the boy with Let's Go Pikachu, and the Girl with Let's Go Eevee?

Why would they ever do that?

I have no idea why they'd want to do that, but they've been doing a lot of stupid shit I don't understand with these games

Yeah like having a fuckin Eevee starter that can't evolve.

Also page 6666, nice.

I mainly asked because they never show the boy with Eevee. I could understand if they didn't show the girl since these games tend to default to the male character, but we really haven't seen any images or videos of the girl with Pikachu or the boy with Eevee. In addition to that it seems like the second character is always the opposite gender of the character you are playing with. I'm probably just being paranoid but... I don't know just kinda worried.

Assigning genders to versions for marketing purposes is nothing new.

True and they have made a lot of things that shouldn't be version specific, version specific, difficulty modes anyone, or if you want something more recent clothing colors.

Splatoon and KOTOR II are the only games I know where the female PC is default.

I can't find a link to it, but I heard that Pokemon Trainers alt colors are matched to different protagonists: the ones I've heard are Ethan, Emerald May, Diamond and Pearl Lucas, and Hilda colors.

Since the bot has a BH doubles team now (filled with Kyogre), I decided to try out if Soul-Heart is busted or not in BH doubles.

It is in fact busted.

Here are some replays of Mega Gengar, Xerneas, and Mega Charizard Y.

I would say I don't want to miss, but I really somehow forgot about Seed Flare while picking Mega Charizard Y...
