Emerson Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 OH SHIT! Ash-Greninja can't breed! It's not in any egg groups and it's locked to a neutral nature. It's going to be competitively garbage now, and definitely inferior to the base forme. Timid Battle Bond isn't possible. hackmons though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) Apparently the game actually may be optimized for the Nu3DS. You can't access miiverse or the web browser on an OG model, and people are already flipping out and saying hyperbolic crap about the framerate.

Emerson Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Thank goodness I own a New 3DS that's my main one. It seems mostly prevalent when it's a double battle (And Pokefinder). It seems fine in singles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The DanMan Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) We have several new characters from a video played once you beat the demo; two new trial captains and a guy who looks like a Kahuna: Ghost girl: Ground girl (those 'brows): Ben Affle- I mean potential Kahuna: Anyone want to place bets on what the last two Alolan forms are? The Charmeleon line and Mewtwo. It's genwunner pandering, might as well go all in /sarcasm. Edited October 18, 2016 by The DanMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ema Skye Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I don't think the Alolan formes are Gen 1 pandering. It's their 20th anniversary, so I think they're celebrating them. It's kind of annoying they aren't covering all six gens, but if they had to focus on one gen, Gen 1 makes the most sense in this situation.

It's kind of annoying they aren't covering all six gens, but if they had to focus on one gen, Gen 1 makes the most sense in this situation. We had Gen VI's blatant favoritism, giving you a Gen I starter before the second gym. We had Mega Evolution favoritism, and a general screwing over of Gen V. We had Go's favoritism. And now we have Alolan forms. Yes, it's the 20th anniversary, but we haven't had 20 years of purely generation one.

Emerson Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) I don't think 8* forms that are only gen 1 and, mind you, are mostly of unpopular pokemon that needed something new. EDIT: Ok, some are unpopular, some are popular, but they do all need something new. I don't think it's pandering. *10 with the others I believe Edited October 18, 2016 by TrueEm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's pandering. On it's own, it's fine. It's just with everything else that's happened, it feels like Gamefreak cares mostly about Gen I and especially seems to think nobody liked Gen V.

Ema Skye Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 EXEGGUTOR IS NO LONGER THE MEME KING! srsly though, worst alolan form ever... Is there one more line, or is its pre-evo the last alolan Pokemon. I wonder what type it'll be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ema Skye Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) I'm naming the Dugtrio heads Bodacious, Tubular and Gnarly. This is like a revival of the 90s. Also wtf is the form's lore going to be? Dugtrio native to the Alolan region grew hair to protect their soft skin from the rays of the sun? ...as opposed to like, you know, digging underground?

Ema Skye Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Also real talk, I hope the final line is Dragonite. I can totally get down with it and forgive them for not making Mega Dragonite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
