Pokémon General Thread

I kinda like how instead of just railing on how shit obvious bad Pokemon are, FSG just goes into full nonsense with the description. It actually works really well with his deadpan tone.

I agree. That was a funny and informative video on a subject that would normally be open and shut.

There's been a correction to that: Delibird was once used in VGC. It's the only Flying-type that can learn Fake Out, buying Groudon an extra turn of Earthquake spam. Also Vital Spirit helps against Dark Void.

I want to put Necrozma back in the Pokémon page for Extreme Evoboost example^note it has Stored Power, take a wild guess what happens if it gets a Baton Pass, but how am I supposed to inform the readers that Necrozma is the most guilty of them while also stating other Pokemon are just as guilty?

Seedot:

This one was really good, the in-progress Pokemon actually looked like mid-way transitory stages.

You know that there's a Tumblr boycott today because of the new rules, right? Don't go on the site, so that the traffic drop sends a message to Tumblr staff.

I didn't think that final turn would turn out the way it did, but here we are.

Why Toxic instead of Draco Meteor?

This is Random Battle, it might not have Draco Meteor.

OK still, any attack would have done more damage than Toxic would have.

It did, actually, I just wasn't thinking of it. Somehow I thought slowly wearing it down was better than a meteor to the face.

Sorry about that. *shrug*

Nintendo of Europe PR: Pokemon Switch is still slated for 2019.

Huh so out of curiosity I wondered if Genderless Pokemon like Cryogonal could use Attract,they can but it fails

Which is just nonsense, who wouldn't want to fuck a living snowflake?

More Gen I beta Pokemon got shown by Gamefreak in a TV program earlier. You can see them here. You can see some have minor differences or different names from their final designs, but there's three main points. Scyther (top middle) and Gyarados (middle row, fourth from the left) have totally different designs at this point, and in the bottom left is a cut Pokemon called Omega, whose index number appears to be where Mew was later placed in the game code.

This post. This post! Just... wow. I am in awe.

Is Omega that scary-looking thing below the Lapras? Edit: Never mind.

If anybody wants to watch a playthrough of Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, I would like to suggest VelvetRoomGaming. I find them really funny and fun to listen to. They are playing the Eevee version, and they currently have four Gym Badges and stopped Team Rocket's invasion of Silph Co. Here's some highlights to give y'all an idea of what it's like;

If you don't mind long episodes (I'm talking episodes that around more than an hour long on average.), sexual humor, etc. Geek Remix finished the game recently and I think their playthrough was pretty fun to watch.

And constant potshots at each other and gushing about Eevee. I have a feeling that Amanda won't survive the end of the playthrough.

Do you need good I Vs to defeat the Battle Tree?

If you're not referring to Super Battle Tree (which is endless), then I say you mostly need luck and a good nature.

Just the regular one.

Is this regular SM or Ultra? Because in Ultra there’s only level sync for the Super Tree, so you can easily beat the regular one by outlevelling the opposition.
