Looking as Lusamine, it's not the Pokemon designs that are getting worse, it's the human ones.....

What are you talking about? Shes hot AF

You think? I just find her ridiculous. Like, I couldn't help laughing when seeing her, because her design is so bad. Her hair is just atrocious imo.

The team skull guy is cut from the same cloth design-wise and I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out he's supposed to be her brother or something.

But hey, whatever floats your boat.

Yep, this Pokemon game is gonna be awesome.
There are many things that look a little iffy, but overall I have a great feeling about this game.

12 hours? I'm confused at what this actually means....

 

The explanation on this thread doesnt really answer my confusion :(

 

Dem names for the new pokemon yoooooooooo........weirdos lol

 

Still getting it day 1 - hopefully the story is as good as Black/White 1 which imo had the best story.

 

We are like a month or so away from the game being released right? Or is it two months? I wanna know a breakdown of the version differences (i.e. location, pokemon appearances, etc).

Basically if it's 9:00 AM IRL it's 9:00 AM in Sun while it's 9:00 PM in Moon. if it's 9 :00 PM IRL it's 9 :00 PM in Sun adn 9 :00 AM in Moon. Before this trailer I was skeptical about the story, but honestly now I feel like we're in for a gen V-like story. the game is out November 18th in US/Japan and November 23rd in Europe.

I think she's pretty dope whatever role she has, she reminds me of both Elesa and Cynthia, I think she's on point wether she's a villain or the Champion, certainly far better than Diantha. Gladion is certainly related to her and imho he's Blue with blonde hair and Silver's attitude...



So many are quick to judge Type: Null and UB-01 for their "names". I wouldn't say that they are names per say.

Type: Null was just created to do a specific task and to rival mythological Pokémon, the creators didn't care about naming it so it is just called by its classification/project name. Mewtwo was technically not even given a real name, just Mew and two, probably its project name. Type: Null wasn't cloned from one specific Pokémon so they couldn't name it Absoltwo (or whatever you think it resembles :P ), it was synthesized from many Pokémon, a chimera, its creators obviously didn't care about naming it because it wasn't supposed to be treated like a normal Pokémon, it was made to serve a purpose, one we still don't know what it is. At least, that's my take on it :P

UB-01 is easier to explain, it is unknown, is it a Pokémon? Nobody knows. They are just anomalies in the Pokémon world and has no info about them. They can't name something that is unidentified, for now they are being classified as Ultra Beasts until more information surfaces.

I love Type: Null more and more every time I lay eyes on it, it's cool as heck and has an interesting story, even the name grows on me

Edit: Sorry for the double post :P

Ultra Beasts aren't Pokemon guys. The site confirmed it. "Ultra Beasts are a threat to humans AND Pokemon."

Well they're artificial -they're not going to get special names. Mewtwo, Porygon 2, and XD-001 had similar naming conventions. 

 

Yeah I know (though being artificial =/= unimaginative systematic name). They're still awful names for living creatures imo.

They're not supposed to be good names. They're supposed to be identifiers. They're 100% supposed to be unimagintative and systemic.

You can apply the bolded sentence to anything, humans as well.

 

Just saying.

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

Again I know. Something being purposely awful doesn't mean it isn't awful.

Not sure what your point is, but yes in general I don't like that way of naming for anything. Names for living things are especially important which is why I care about what their names are.



I'm not sure if anyone saw this, but another trailer hit yesterday. It's the Japanese trailer this time with mostly stuff we already know, but with a new addition: https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=8oO_P4GX_RA

Yes you just saw a glimpse of Nariya Oak! He's confirmed to be Professor Oak's cousin who's studying the Alola region and the Alola forms of Pokemon!
