    Pokemon Merchandise thread

    Huh, I could have sworn there was one for each Arceus form. I for some reason have this memory of an image which up in a corner had every form of Arceus in plush form. Okay, nevermind, yeah, Silvally definitely will only get one then. There's also something which I questioned would affect what...

    Pokemon Merchandise thread

    Ah, okay, though doesn't really change anything I said. Could be. Also, due to its cute appearance, they could also think Zygarde Core is marketable enough to be worth the extra effort (I imagine its also a simple plush to make so maybe the cost isn't as high as a more complex one like...

    Pokemon Merchandise thread

    Uh-oh, looks like the Mythicals and Malamar showed up drunk (except for Hoopa Unbound, though that guy looks like he can drink an entire hogshead and keep on chugging). Joking aside, I get why Diancie and Hoopa are down as they're probably hard to get standing, but what's Volcanion's excuse...

    You are a type specialist in a hostile region. How do you best represent your chosen element?

    Yeah, I myself was thinking of tackling a "Sky, Land & Sea" theme; associating Salamence, Flygon, & Kingdra with Rayquaza, Groudon, & Kyogre respectively. But I felt I didn't really have a hook outside of that so didn't follow through, which is good as I was then reminded of Zinnia/Draconids...

    Sticky Orange Islands SQSA Thread

    Every forum post I've read that appear on Google when I search point to yes for both. One even had someone listing all the EVs.

    You are a type specialist in a hostile region. How do you best represent your chosen element?

    As Ironmage mentioned, ORAS introduced us to the Draconids, an ancient tribe who worshipped Rayquaza and raised Dragon-type Pokemon. In the games we only meet two: Zinnia and her grandmother, but there was a third mentioned who held a lot of importance to Zinnia and probably guided some of her...

    Electric BDSP: Cobalt Empoleon (25 points): Guitarist is a pretty apt theme considering the Guitarist Trainer Class was mainly found in the Sunyshore Gym. Though you also put an interesting twist where, technically, the "main" Pokemon are the non-Electric-type performers while the...

    Sticky Orange Islands SQSA Thread

    After looking around for a bit, I found this thread on Serebii which suggests only one Pokemon is permanently missable: Togetic.

    Aqueduct Construction: A big project is about to take place in Lumiose City and it's going to require a lot of fresh water; an aqueduct leading down from the mountain's lakes would suffice. In the way there's a lot of natural watercourses all around the mountain, many supporting local ecosystems...

    Getting late so just posting my thoughts on the last 3 round winners (1 more then last time, I'm getting so bad at this I'm sure I'll eventually forget to do 4 rounds (I almost did just now)): Grass USUM Poni Island: (Link) SpyderMarz (27 points): A brilliant idea for a theme and masterfully...

    You are a type specialist in a hostile region. How do you best represent your chosen element?

    While I obviously can't say for certain, I have a strong feeling if we went from "Top 5" to "Rank All" the complaints would swing in the opposite direction of "too much order fiddling". Can't please everyone, am I right? Not that I don't understand where those who complained are coming from. I...

    You are a type specialist in a hostile region. How do you best represent your chosen element?

    I would keep it to Top 5: In order to figure out the order of Top 5 we need to look at all the teams anyway, so it's not like anyone is going to be overlooked. Figuring the order of the Top 5 can be tricky enough, having then to figure out where every entrant after 5 would feel like splitting...

    Pokémon GO

    So just saw this on Kotaku. Good jerb there, Niantic. https://kotaku.com/pokemon-go-wiglett-spawn-locations-fake-beach-coastal-1851455378 Someone could probably write a case study thesis on Developer's Plans VS Player's Workarounds using just Pokemon GO alone.

    Follow Me To Sinnoh: Oh yeah, I'm going there. So let's imagine a meta universe where the Pokemon VGCs also happen in-world. The real life players all have a trainer avatar and its televised/streamed all over the Pokemon world as you would expect for such an event. For up-and-coming Pokemon...
