this card. what even is this card. what even is that pose just ew also who the heck would need Pokemon with a retreat cost of F O U R

Are you getting it one from the Pokemon Dream Radar (read: one with Telepathy)? I don't think we are tiering Dream Radar mons, but by all means test it if you want to, it'd be useful data. It could be okay considering you get the Psychic TM and can get the Moon Stone on Route 6. It would be one...

It also helps that Litwick is completely immune to Audino stuff barring Attract, which I find notable because Secret Power 30% sleep chance in tall grass is infinitely obnoxious You evolve basically around Skyla too so that helps, Energy Ball TM is nice and easy access Chandelure also hits...

Volcarona in BW2 is far from useless, but it is far from the dependable standards B tier invokes. Volcarona is annoying to catch (Dusk Balls help but it is still a catch rate of 15) and you get a not particularly helpful attacker for the last few Gyms, and despite how relatively easy they are...

Campy Batman movies like Batman Forever and Batman & Robin were great and I think it's time to give campy Batman in live-action another theatrical shot instead of gritty Batman adaptation #3,457 I'm a huge fan of Batman: The Animated Series and The Dark Knight as much as anyone, but it's not...

Despite being a very passionate nerd, I've never really cared for Death Battle at all (doesn't help when a friend of mine forces it down my throat) it's just two nerds endlessly reading wiki-like facts for like 20 minutes (which you can get from many other content creators, and of course one of...

okay I know this one is kind of cheating but it's awesome so do you remember Boomerang, that offshoot of Cartoon Network that showed their backlog? When they reran Pokemon in the 2000s, for whatever reason, they decided to go absolutely hard with the background music for the promos with some...

Hariyama has okay bulk and is indeed fine, but the problem is that "fine" is not good enough for Pokemon Colosseum, a brutal game as is. Pokemon Colosseum borderline forces you to use top tier metagame BS by endgame because the bosses are so cracked Skarmory is the rare case I'll stick up for...

Can confirm. Unlike XD, Makuhita is Just Not Good in Colo. It faints allllllllll the time, and even when you get Hariyama, it is lame because Cross Chop is unreliable, Vital Throw is meh because Fighting gets resisted sometimes and you don't get many super effective opportunities. It's so bad

The episode is the 108th episode of SM, Memories in the Mist! This is the same goofy haha series that has Rowlet breaking the fourth wall by landing on the camera lens. Seriously though, what a DCAU-level tear jerker. 10/10, no notes

Yeah it's pretty hilarious Grass Knot owns Probopass I used chimecho and ponyta there though check out chimecho's meteoric rise here in my full 12 episode playthrough (starts being used in episode 3)

freaking PROBOPASS in Platinum On paper Nosepass looks great. You evolve immediately and have great bulk and Thunder Wave...but throughout my whole Platinum playthrough, it was hard to find a situation where switching to Probopass was a good option. Rock/Steel is a pretty bad defensive type...

Chingling is a pretty good Pokemon in Diamond, Pearl and Platinum. Yes, it's not Abra. It's not Ralts. Heck it's not even Girafarig. But if you play to Chimecho's strengths, it's not too bad. Relatively early friendship evolution in the mid 20s with some Bicycle use. Most Pokemon fans would...

I agree with your take of Crystal not being very good I got a lot of replies on the above post so I'll say there's nothing inherently morally wrong with fangames. I just think people get up in arms too much when they do get taken down, even if they don't make profit off of it. I'll say this...

Companies shutting down ROM hacks (including Pokemon ROM hacks) is 100% within their legal rights and people are just upset they can't play games for free anymore. While original fangames can be interesting, think about it from the perspective of Game Freak in the 90s for a moment. They had...
