  1. Metagame Terastallization Tiering Discussion [ UPDATE POST #1293]

    I think revealing the potential Tera types of each mon removes the "unpredictability" people cite as a reason for banning. I don't find the power boost offensively or defensively outright overpowered. I believe Tera types add further complexity to the game and reward team building and playing
  2. Metagame Terastallization Tiering Discussion [ UPDATE POST #1293]

    Honestly, I would vote NO BAN at least for now. TLDR: I believe with only a little over a week in the meta, it is too early to say one way or another. After a lot of testing, I find that the tera actually highlights the better player more often than not. Yes, it sucks to lose because you...
  3. Metagame [SPOILERS] Scarlet & Violet OU Discussion [BAN LIST POST 626]

    Will we reasonably be able to test the move reset rumor before pokehome compatibility in spring? I really don't want to breed egg moves or move tutor mons if the resources will just be burned.
  4. SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword and Shield Datamine Thread

    You see that's the sad beauty of the Chinese finger trap Nintendo placed Gamefreak: GF can make games whenever they want, but... 1. GF doesn't recieve the majority of revenue of their games or the merch it pushes 2. Thus, GF must push games as quickly as possible to continue to draw revenue to...
  5. SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword and Shield Datamine Thread

    You guys are all circling, but missing the point. The contractual way gamefreak, pokemon company, and Nintendo is set up provides gamefreak only with ~1/3 of game revenue with merch and movie sales shared by poke co and Nintendo. We can ask for more developers or more time, but it really boils...

  8. SM UU Beta (Mewnium Z, Staraptor, Victini banned)

    Hi UU, my favorite time early tier where behemoths of gens past vow for limited space in OU amongst the power creep. Stoked to abuse new mons, innovation of unique sets or play styles, and the rise of new stand out trainers. Wow, only a few days in and we're dropping the ban hammer. Are we...
  9. Gen VII: Pokemon Sun and Moon Discussion MKII

    Interestingly after watching the Pokemon generation short, red is confronted by zygarde complete in the giant crater in the kalos region. It's hard to believe this wasn't intended for a z installment. I really wanted to see kalos in its full glory after its rather scant story. But I guess with...
  10. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    Now that pikaboo BuildLikeABear have "officially" been revealed, how long is expected before the Pokemon site updates with their description and hopefully ability description? As the starter's pre-evo used the special moves, I'm hoping all Pokemon have access to them once some sort of gauge is...
  11. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    I'm sceptical but certainly intrigued. Fortunately, the leaker seems to have put himself on a timer siting the release of a new video sometime next week. This video like poison lizard reveal is unexpected. So I'll kick back relax and watch chaos unfold as these leaks do or die. Hopefully...
  12. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    I can't believe they're releasing so many Mons this early. Hopefully it's indicative of a big generation. Ironically, as much as I hated the drought of information, I don't want them to play their hand too early. I imagine they've got some real tricks up their sleeves though to overdrive the...
  13. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    Maybe reading too much into it but I thought it was interesting arcanine was chosen as a Mon to showcase rockruff. Hopefully his evolution will have similar stats and move pool love. Follow up what are the ranges of HP based on the bar we saw of rockruff. Assuming 31 Ivs? Sleepy koala was...
  14. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    Guesses for trio plus rockweiler"s secret 1. These are the Mons we'll synchronized/ mega evolve with 2. Going off alchemy theory- the dogs final evolution type changes based upon starter in the party ---- possibly allowing dog to change color and type while maintaining one stat spread like Rotom...
  15. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    Granted shots in the dark, I'll guess A. It's nothing but an aesthetic B. Different types have different patterns C. The more friendship/ unity with Pokemon the closer the poke balls become. Maxed friendship overlaps.
  16. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    The Rotom dex really swung for the fences on an otherwise safe reveal. Someone else pointed out how jam packed and accessible the islands seem to be. Although open world seems a way off, I see the intermingling and branching of routes allowing for exploration and greater packing of locations...
  17. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    Is it confirmed that they'll be dropping videos like this once a month leading up to the release? Also are hidden abilities discerned once the game coding is cracked?
  18. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    The starters are more than likely to evolve at 16 and 36 with other evolution methods being highlighted later in the game. So I doubt they'll factor happiness into the starter evolution. Although you're right scientificly, game freak isn't measuring flame heat for appropriate color. IIRC...
  19. Gen VII: Pokémon Sun and Moon (New info Post #5834)

    The type discussion for litten is giving me quite literal deja vu or perhaps flashbacks. Dark fire based on coat color or fire poison based on manticore tail. It seems time will tell as we await troll freaks reveal. Something interesting from the official art is that his black oily skin turns...
