Isn't a core problem with Power Construct that its so predictable? What can 10% or 50% do against accurate predictions?

Yes it does because its based on the deformed and terribly unhealthy Persian Cat that human beings, in real life, bred to be so borked in the face. I like it in the fact that it sheds light on terrible human breeding issues associated with dog and cat fancy that is ultimately absurd and terrible.

Something just dawned on me. So the interesting thing about the Alolan formes is that its most likely that you can only bring one version of them so long as Species clause is in effect! No RedOni/BlueOni motif with Ninetales :(

Pretty neat. I was going to ignore these but I actually enjoy these much more than the Anime. I like the fact that it is in the game-verse. Anyone thinking that Giovanni may actually come back?

See if we want to interpret real physics 1:1, sure, Ice couldn't resist lukewarm water . . . unless it was really really cold. But maybe that's the point its not 1 to 1 with real world physics. Ice Pokemon are particularly frigid and if Water is capable of ALWAYS being super-effective to fire...

I find it interesting that they specifically had this wording in the trailer: "Relive Mega-Evolutions". Seems to be both no new megas and a hint that they're currently done with that tangential type of evolution. Which, in many ways, is a shame. Excepting a few OP ones I did enjoy Megas. Who...

I've wondered this myself.

See the recent VJump video shows a silver bottle cap being used on three different Garchomps to max all of their attack IVs. They then suggest that a gold one might exist and raise multiple stats. But no mention of bronze ones which makes me worry about the incremental ability of these bottle...

In b4 this is Red's Kid. (kinda expecting it now) On a more serious note . . . the first trailer they had showed a Japanese kid moving to Hawaii. While it appeared at the time to be a reference of Pokemon transcending language and cultural barriers to make everyone friends (five of my teeth...

A combination of technological limitations and realizing they could re-release the older games on the updated engine. Now, is Pikaboo really this gen's Pika clone? Togedemaru is clearly the pika-clone. So can anyone fill in the 'fifth move' and super moves shtick?

Pikaboo was a coined name for a theoreized/wishlisting dead Ghost Pikachu or, after Marill proved that Pikachu knock-offs were going to come every-gen, that they'd make a Ghost typed knock off. I'm digging this one. Hope Disguise is an opening for form changes pre-battle not during battle...

I'm not for this whole, incremental game business. (well actually I am but that was a concept for my mobile/pokemon-esque game :) ) But honestly, I think the target audience of Pokémon does it well to release in iterations. That new group of young children always are getting a fresh, but...

You still are discussing things. Marketing is a fickle thing in the internet age. Any thing can become viral and spread to everyone. Look at BvS; they basically gave the audience everything important with the few trailers to the point were people we thinking, and somewhat correctly, that the...

I envy you so much. I really wanted to use Porygon but just ruled him out as ineffective. My favorite mon I brought along was Primeape. He had Final Gambit. A move that people rarely account for and allows him to clear opponents many would expect him to be unable to touch. Ended 20-10. At...

Is this true for defense as well? That is it uses the active mons defense?

How likely do we think it'll be for Fissure/OHKO moves to be nerfed so that No Guard doesn't apply? Because, seriously, I don't think GF is that silly.

I think it is. Not an admin though. How does Substitute with baton pass work? Is it's HP pool whatever created it and is its defense/typing what ever is currently active?

I actually enjoy that the base game is absurdly different from the competitive game. In fact I'd go so far as to continue into what I assume is an unpopular opinion: "I hope the games get effectively easier as time goes on in order to let people get to the 'end-game' and 'competitive' scenes...

Would have been neat if it was, I know I must have faced at least one Smogonite, but the team I faced had Snorlax, Alakazam, Gyrados, Nidoking, Machamp, as well as the Golem. I'd say it'd be hard to nit-pick that team really without knowing the EV spreads. Otherwise its a pretty solid team with...

Thanks. They dc'd then I think. The global link is also saying the last battle I fought I lost (going by history) ... pretty sure I didn't. Maybe it needs to update? I keep a physical copy of my battles as they happen... I know I won. It only is telling me I fought 29 battles too.
