  1. I'm not sure if this is ISIS. The methods in this explosion aren't what ISIS usually do. That being said, I wouldn't be suprised if ISIS claimed to be responsible for this, regardless if they are responsible for the explosion or not.
  2. I still think that the chances of the first DGS game getting are very slim. Not because of the localization, but because of something much more delicate. I posted this in another thread, but I post here as well. It's the review from someone in Siliconera that played the game: "The game requires an absolutely massive amount of cultural understanding. The west is not in a good place for that right now. To be frank, most of the British characters (read: all of the British characters) talk down to Ryunosuke, and talk poorly about Japan's "reverted, backwards, ancient" ways. Jurors call Ryunosuke a Black Demon, a man with a small yellow face, accuse him of using "magic of the orient" among other things. These come off as harmless jokes in Japan just fine because when you're 99.5% homegenous, race isn't a popular topic of conversation (and they love making fun of themselves - just like at Atsugiri Jason, arguably the worst thing to happen to foreigners here in years) - but in a place like America, especially with pathetic uproars over small changes in localization with games like Fates, these issues are taken very seriously and the public response is often grave. In addition, the game often comes off as incredibly anti-west, but in reality its just reflecting the very true conditions of the Meiji period. There's a problem - who cares about the Meiji period? No one, and no one can argue that it's common knowledge. It's a really fascinating period of history, but right now, people's glasses will probably bias them to seeing a part of the game that isn't necessarily there." I have to agree, the west really isn't prepared for game like this. Do you all honestly could be released in the west without creating some sort of controversy?
  3. To be fair, the 6-1 isn't one of the best first cases, but 6-2 and 6-3 are amazing, especially 6-3.
  4. I just noticed something that reinforces the idea that Ultra Beasts are not Pokemon. Usually, when a new Pokemon is revealed in a trailer, we can hear it's cry. However, when a Ultra Beast is revealed, there's no cry at all. Maybe Ultra Beasts won't even have cries?
  5. I didn't mind her voice sounding older, mostly because we only hear during her prayer, and it makes sense for Rayfa to be using a more serious voice.Did you finish Case 3? If so what did you think it? Actually, for all of those that played SoJ, what were your opinions on Cases 2 and 3? Personally, I think they were some of the best in the series.
  6. Anyway, I must say, I really liked SoJ. The writting definitively improved. And the twists in this game are very good. There are a lot, A LOT, of WTF moments in this game. And they are done rather well. It's also quite hard, much, much harder that DD.
  7. I believe the battles against them will be a mix immunity and things that will be detrimental to the player. For example, UB-02 Beauty's bio says that it can charm all Pokemon, regardless of gender, so maybe, when fighting UB-02 Beauty, all of the player's Pokemon will be inflicted with the Infatuation status effect, and even switching out the Pokemon won't heal it.
  8. It makes a lot of sense actually.I'm pretty sure only the male protagonists will appear in this special, since the female ones tend to appear on the main anime. So it's very unlikely to that the female protagonists such as Leaf and Hilda to appear in the anime. Let's be honest, the male protagonists of Pokemon are criminally underused.
  9. For some reason, now I'm imaginng the anime now being some sort of go-to-school-save-the-world kind of thing. They go to school by day, and secretely fights Team Skull at night! Also, here are the bios for the new Ultra Beasts. They are rather short. UB-02 Expansion: "Has a body that's a deadly weapon to match its name." UB-02 Beauty: "Just like its name implies, it can use its beauty to charm all Pokémon. Regardless of gender, it can eliminate its opponent's desire to fight."
  10. They might also be waiting to release them on Halloween, since one of the DLC maps is themed after Halloween.
  11. He did avoid school for 20 years. The truancy officers were bound to catch up with him eventually, And if this is a school anime, I predict that Lillie will be a Tsundere and Kiawe will be the perverted best friend.
  12. Some new leaks from Corocoro, but they don't reveal much actually. Also, for those who are curious, according to the leak, Ash is gonna go back to school in the Sun and Moon anime.
  13. So the rumor about Sun and Moon's director being the same as ORAS was true. Interesting. I did like what he did with ORAS's story. Did anyone else check all the beds and lockers in Sea Mauville? There's a suprisingly good story about Sea Mauville. And Professor Cozmo's baclstory is actually kinda heartbreaking...
  14. It's the internet, what did you expect? That people would react camly? Perhaps people are reacting badly because Nintendo is the only console creator whose sole focus is gaming. There's also the fact that some fans are pretty much acting like grumpy old men, saying things like "Back in my day we played games on consoles, not on phones!" or something similar. As someone who grew up playing Nintendo consoles, I admit, it's a weird feeling seeing these games on phones rather than on consoles. It's hard to describe.
  15. Oh, come on, it's harmless. What's wrong with people comparing him to Owain/Odin? Besides it could be worse.
  16. The idea that Aether Foundation might be making experiments on Pokemon reminded me of something... Also, if the Aether Foundation is evil, it would be the first time that a evil team had a female leader.
  17. Speaking of Type: Null, there's something interesting that I' e noticed about it's name. Null can mean empty or lacking and it's type is Normal, which can be considered an "empty" type. Normal type are even called Coloress in the Pokemon Card Game. Could it be that there are other Type: Pokemon, of different types? Such as Water-Type: Aqua, Fairy-Type: Fae, Fire-Type: Pyros and so on. Or maybe, Type: Null can change types, like a certain legendary Pokemon... And the bio says: "To complete a certain mission, there was need of a Pokémon powerful enough to rival those Pokémon often spoken of in mythology" In other words, it was created with legedary Pokemon in mind.
  18. Also, another thing, This reversal of time between versions bothers me for some reason. I might change from Moon to Sun actually. Not sure yet. What are your opinions on this time reversal thing?
  19. I'm sensing some family drama in all of this! Kinda cool actually! And Aether Foundantion is definitively evil. Wait, does this mean that we might team up with Guzma? Type: Null is...interesting. They have my attention... And why do I get the feeling that UB-01 might not be a Pokemon at all... Oh! And the bio seems to imply that the new Dragon type might end up Dragon/Fighting.
  20. Most of the time. Not only because not having everyone in the same level bothers sometimes, but that missed experience might come back to haunt me in a later boss battle.
  21. Wait, you rather waste your time waiting for a Pokemon to appear in the Honey Tree every 6 hours until you get it right than save scumming?
  22. If you're curious: However, it's bio shows that it's a very creepy guy. It's actually kind of disturbing.
  23. Actually, Feebas is really common on the tile it appears. And Feebas really is a matter patience instead of luck, like Munchlax and Combee. Also, Feebas is much is easier to find in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum because it's just a single lake. It was much harder to find in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald.
