Sad to see ESAM out at 13th, but at least he proved Nairo's Doc isn't a Pikachu counter. I'll be rooting for Nairo and Ranai from now on. A Grand Finals without Zero in it seems unthinkable, but if that's going to happen at any tournament, it's going to be this one... we can still hope!

Anyone else think Zygarde's cell-based forms are a reference to cellular slime molds? The fact that they gather together when their environment is threatened seems like a clear link.

This isn't really an explanation, but an easy way to use space-warping abilities offensively would be to open up portals to the seafloor... ...and now you know how Palkia uses Hydro Pump. :P (I always thought maybe it was because it warped space like a fluid but idk if that even makes any sense.)

I thought it was a 12 episode season. Maybe the last few episodes are the finale arc. Anyway, Nickelodeon sucks, blah blah, Varrick should've narrated the whole darn thing. :\

I don't think the removal of Greninja's Shadow Sneak canceling matters too much; Shadow Sneak itself has comparable ending lag to Dair, so Dair -> Shadow Sneak isn't that safe once people catch on. What really irritates me is that practically all of Greninja's kill moves have been nerfed - it's...

If these are the only changes to Greninja I'll be happy. :) I need to stop using Dair so much, anyway. BTW how do people know all this info about the Wii U version already? Is there some kind of demo somewhere?...

It was remixed, and imo that's not a good thing. This is an interesting take on the theme (kinda sounds like it came out of Kirby's Epic Yarn), but in a fighting game like Smash Bros, taking one of the most adrenaline-loaded battle themes in a series and reducing it to that makes absolutely...

I really hate that the writers are making Kuvira blatantly villainous. She could have easily been the series' most morally ambiguous villain since it's clear she's far more competent than Wu and the Earth Kingdom actually does need a strong leader, but no, she just has to go full-on evil...

I feel it's more effective to just spam Greninja's U-smash against Master Hand, since it deals more damage in less time than D-air, and for Master Hand you really want to get that fight out of the way as fast as possible. I also tend to spam U-smash against the Master Core forms, although that...

finally caught up with seasons 3 and 4 so I can watch this thread now whoo This episode felt like a bit like a recycled version of "The Swamp", but I do like that the context was different (the swamp is leading someone else to the Avatar instead of the other way around, while Korra has to deal...

Perhaps the father is constantly busy working. After all, someone in the family has to make money; as unrealistic as Pokemon is, keeping a household together without any source of income is really stretching it. Speaking of missing family members, do any of the player characters have canon...

If Azurill is A-rank, Sentret should be too. They both sit on their unreasonably large tails, look like they're pouting all the time, and have squeaky cries. Also why is Pumpkaboo D-rank it has the cutest fangs .o.

We can extend this to basically every non-native postgame legendary ever (birds in Sinnoh and Kalos, Lati@s in Johto, etc.). I think BW2 takes this to the most ridiculous extreme, though: you have all of Registeel, Regirock, Regice, Regigigas, Lati@s, Mesprit, Azelf, Uxie, Cresselia, and Heatran...

Did you even play Kid Icarus: Uprising >.< I mean, true Dark Pit has basically the same abilities as Pit in Uprising, but since there are a huge variety of weapons to use in that game they could just build his moveset from other weapons or something. (I'm guessing they'll be lame and give him...

I usually try to follow some kind of silly nicknaming scheme within each game. For X and Y, most of my team members' names were related to some kind of organelle/other cell-related thing: Thyla the Venusaur - thylakoid Alyssa the Aegislash - lysosome Maya the Staraptor - myosin Celia the...
