I think he means on Battle Spot, in game (X,Y,ORAS).Since when does Smogon care about that? Kyurem-B is legal in OU X_X
Why does that matter on a site which uses different rules?I think he means on Battle Spot, in game (X,Y,ORAS).
This site is based on the games and exists because of them. If people ONLY cared about battling under smogon rules and nothing else then why would it matter what Hoenn's new map is or who the champion of the games is? People care about the games and their rules too...Why does that matter on a site which uses different rules?
Yeah, they were smart and used the 3D Pokédex Pro as grounds for the XY models, and share the package with the whole team and any third-parties that would want to use them for spin-offs. Unless, they decide to improve that "database" with walking animations, we're never getting following pokémon again.The thing about walking is that it requires a lot of animation compared to what it did earlier.
In HGSS, all they needed for walking Pokémon was three sprites with two frames of animation for every Pokémon (Walking up, walking down, walking sideways, that last one can be mirrored). It involved very little data, and a rather minimal amount of spriting.
Now, however, with fancy perspectives and 3D models and whatnot, a flat two-frame sprite would look really out of place. You'd have to create a walking animation for every 3D model, of which there are a good 800 or so (a number which keeps growing for every game). A lot of data to store, nevermind a lot of animation work. Unless GameFreak wants to invest significantly in walking Pokémon, we won't see it for a while.
Because I want to walk up big staircases with my 47' whale behind me, dammit!And frankly, why would we. Wailord or the bigger legendaries would be too awkward. They're not my dog, wtf.
Also, like, I'm pretty sure they would need to make entirely new overworld modelsThe thing about walking is that it requires a lot of animation compared to what it did earlier.

Being Groudon is suffering.Not only the 3DS, but also the designers. Even if the console could manage it, it still would take a fair bit of resources during game development. After all, somebody has to make sure the animations look right, that the light hits the 'mon just right or that all the joints bend in the right ways. It's a fair amount of man-hours involved, and battle animations would have a lot higher priority.
Besides, some Pokémon would be hard to show walking. Hariyama, Magmortar and Tyranitar spring to mind (seriously, look at Tyranitar's knees compared to its pelvic joints, and imagine it walking - something clearly isn't attached right on that Pokémon).
I just want something different than Magic Bounce, that's all.This is such a weird thing to complain about.
Drifblim was Fantina's main in contests, while Mismagius was her main in DPPt (except in battleground rematch for... some reason). And Kingdra was and always has been Clair's main in the games, they just changed that to Dragonair in the Anime and Manga because... because.If Agatha got Gengar, Morty got Mismagius, and Fantina got Driblim, that would solve everything .-. Also if Clair took Kingdra and Juan made do with Luvdisc since nobody likes him anyways
Agatha is the Poison type E4'er.Agatha and Morty share Gengar, but only because Gengar was the only Ghost-type in Gen I
While all of Agatha's team in Red, Blue, and Yellow (plus her intial FireRed and LeafGreen team) were Poison-types, she's officially a Ghost-type trainer. Though even in her FireRed and LeafGreen rematch team, only one thing wasn't Poison and two of them weren't Ghosts and two of them were Gengar. Which I never understood since there were six fully-evolved (at the time) Ghosts available in Gen III.Agatha is the Poison type E4'er.
But I think Vader the White is onto something here, Diantha had mega Gardevoir, Wally could go with Gallade and maybe it is also going to get a mega? I know it wasn't introduced with RSE but surely out of not repeating themselves, GF isn't going to give Wally a mega Gardevoir (if he gets a mega that is, but I assume he will, because wynaut?) Plus, if Wally was going to get mega Gardevoir then surely Diantha would get something which nobody else uses, like Mega Mawile or something.
Just my thoughts anyway.
You sir, have offended me. Lol jk but she's Ghost type man. I think Wally should man up and get a Gallade too, who also needs a mega imo n__nAgatha is the Poison type E4'er.

Don't impose your gender roles on Wally! The poor, sickly boy needs his Guardian Angel.I think Wally should man up and get a Gallade too, who also needs a mega imo n__n
Yeah, Gardevoir still kinda fits 1000000000X better than Gallade.Don't impose your gender roles on Wally! The poor, sickly boy needs his Guardian Angel.
Gallade is useful to catch wandering Pokémon since it has Hypnosis, Mean Look, and False Swipe.Yeah, Gardevoir still kinda fits 1000000000X better than Gallade.
... that and I don't like Gallade and found it really unnecessary imo
Except, you know, megadiancie gets a sizable speed boost(70+ base speed seems likely) which makes trick room inferior.You can't Taunt it when it sets up SR or Trick Room.
