Pocket Monsters Thread III - Game released *almost* everywhere

[Espadas]

So what's your "point"?

... I'll take my leave now lol.

That the girl in question wasn't particularly "acute".

.... put those bricks down, please!

[BT]

Cacturne away while you still can.

[commandercool]

Can someone help me evolve my Kadabra? I'll need to do my Machoke later, but that won't be for a while. I haven't actually added any friends yet, I should do that.

ELABORATE PLEASE! Anything that have to do with Touhoumon have my immediate attention...... <3

No particular reason, I just very clearly remember that route from Touhoumon Emerald for some reason.

Edit: Wait, where do you even add people in ORAS? I can't remember/figure out where the codes go.

[Mounting Jaggis]

The QR codes? In your secret base. Friend codes? In the 3DS friends list

[Tamer Anode/Cathode]

About to fight Norman.

My lead is a Lv16 Aron with Protect/Dig/Toxic/Double Team.

to fight pocket monsters, we created pocket monsters

[Spotty Len]

Finally received my copy after missing the package yesterday. TRUMPEEEEEEEETS.


Also, lookitat cute little sea destroyer. :derp:

[Edible]

I played wonder trade roulette to get my team, and wound up with a chespin (dumped my treecko), a ghastly (now haunter), a beldum (aww yeah metagross), and a gible (now gabite, but probably getting dumped since I don't like garchomp).  Just beat Winona.

Still trying to catch everything in sight.  First catch was a zigzagoon/linoone and I've been using it as a HM slave (plus thunder wave) ever since, and pickup's really handy when you're actually playing through the game it turns out.  I really need something neat to use electric attacks, though; skarmory is a huge pain in the ass <_<

Spoiler:

My Latias had a super awful typing, which is a shame, but I wasn't planning on using it in battles anyway.

I got lucky and my Vileplume ended up with HP Electric. Which is good, because mono-grass STAB sucks in ORAS and it had already leveled past any damaging poison moves by the time I caught it.

Incidentally, does anyone know where the Sludge Bomb TM is? :derp:

[MatsuriSakuragi]

"You! Hand, please!"

>Matsuri received a Nugget!

"Hope it pans out for you."

...

"There's nothing funny about Nuggets."

[BT]

I don't like garchomp

what soul do you even have for not liking flying sharpedo dragon

Spoiler:

I haven't been keeping track of ORAS updates for months; did the Latis get new typings?

If they haven't changed anything, a dude will show up in the middle of the WHAT'S HIP NOW club in 2nd Gym Island (Dewford? Just off of memory here...) after, I think, you win your 5th badge? He'll say SLUDGE BOMB is hip and give you Sludge Bomb.

Yup, he was there. And he was right too, it is so hip.

[Edible]

Hrglbl.  Meant nature, not typing :V

"There's nothing funny about Nuggets."

Oh there's even a pun I didn't notice.
This is some joke heavy piece of dialogue.

[Mounting Jaggis]

Is 'Gold nugget' a slang for testicles in Japan? I remember hearing that somewhere.

Kin no tama, yeah.  Slang for balls.

[Polaris]

Need someone to help me evolve my Seadra via trade! FC is 2251-5199-2177. Find me on IRC in #scarlet-library or #motktown or message me privately or something. Thanks!

[Bio]

If you own two Pokemon games, you can GTS yourself to transfer/trade evos. From the recipient trainer, place a Magikarp on the GTS for the Pokemon you wish to transfer and complete the trade from the other trainer.
It isn't as fast as Bank for transporting or 2 3DS for trading but it works.

[Polaris]

Wish I had known that earlier :( I do have two games but I only brought Alpha Sapphire home with me.

Still looking for someone to help me evolve :L

Edit: Found someone!

[BT]

Postgame spoilers:

Spoiler:

Dunno if it's a callback to Pokemon Mystery Dungeon or they forgot they made the damn thing, because I didn't expect another "call Rayquaza to save the world from meteors" quest! Totally better the first time. ...I'll admit they did good with the random event reference, though.

[Raikaria]

Spoiler:

I think it's awesome that Deoxys is no longer event-only seeing it's 4 formes make it pretty cool. That and the UK never had a Deyoxs event.

GDI why wasn't I offered this at Gamestop ;___;

Also, is it just me or

Spoiler:

should I feel guilty that I am literally being handed a Latias after the fifth gym? Aren't the Latis supposed to be really powerful or something?

Yes? ;_;

Spoiler:

Getting the Latis in the originals was GSC-level-roaming-legends-in-postgame hard. Memories of trying to nab it with Mean Look Crobat because that's allll I haaaad, except it was weak to Psychic.

EDIT: Megaray is so strong he's literally unplayable.

[Bio]

The only thing opposing the ban on Mega Rayquaza was whether or not Ubers was a banlist or not.
That thing is too strong.

[Mеа]

This turnout of events pleases and amuses me. The weather trio always struck me as being the only truly malevolent legendaries out there in the Poke-verse. At least in Pokemon special.

[Tamer Anode/Cathode]

now that the Anything Goes metagame exists I want to see someone build Sand Veil Garchomp with Brightpowder and Double Team

Except Darkrai who's pretty content locking people in nightmares that only Cresselia can cure. And let's not even go into PMD Darkrai.

And Yveltal who is outright stated to be the embodiment of death and kills everything around it to reincarnate.

Those two are pretty malicious too.

Too bad Movie 10 Darkrai was a big fat hero. :V
Damn that was a cool scene.

[Raikaria]

That's 1 canon against two.

And Yveltal is still a life-stealing embodiment of death.

[Suikama]

We are adding a new metagame called Anything Goes (AG). AG has no bans, and no clauses, except for Endless Battle Clause.

So not even species clause? heh

6 MRAY TEAM GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Spotty Len]

6 Moody Bidoofs.

Call that creativity.
