WHAT
>>323969695
Careful anon, talking about vidya is forbidden here.
>>323969695
Cool! I like it. I don't really get the butt rage other that it being another fire type.
>>323969695
Still better than an ice cream cone
Literally my favorite pokemon from 5th gen. This is great
>>323970685
They're both cool. I never understood the hatred of object based pokemon.
Finally, something to add to decent tier and not furshit tier
>>323969695
HOLY SHIT
I FUCKING LOVE CHANDELURE
SWAMPERTFAGS BTFO
FUCK YES
still no Heracross or Scrafty..
>>323969695
But it doesn't have limbs
How is it going to fight?
>>323970797
>>323971185
>>323971323
Are you people fucking serious? You can like that pokemon all you want and I'd even agree that it has an appealing design. But this is a fighting game. How would I imagine this thing fighting a Machamp? This is like the Smash threads full of people wanting Toad in Smash4.
>>323973274
It cant
Machamp is a fighting type and chandelure is a ghost type
Machamp would be more Machump for that matchup
>>323973274

>Gardevoir
>Braixen
>Suicune
They'll find a way. Probably.
>>323973274
>My pokemon fighting game isn't realistic
>>323973274
I know, how dare they attempt to give the roster more variety and make it unique?
>>323969695
FUCKING SWEET
Will they make it in?
>>323973707
>>323973727
I don't understand you people. For the sake of variety you're going to be excited to play as a floating chandelier.
Is this a new meme? Ironic hype?
>>323973951
>stop liking what i don't like reee
>still no snorlax
>>323974006
No, you can LIKE the pokemon. Fucking whatever. No one has explained why they would want to play as this pokemon in a fighting game. I realize that I'm being autistic as fuck right now because I care enough to keep posting, but my curiosity is killing me.
>>323973274
>Using Smash Bros as an example of non-fighting things can make it into a fighting game.
Explain Peach? Unlike Zelda and Rosalina, canonically she has no special abilities.
>>323973951
fuck you
I actually like floating fighting game characters
I think Rosalina and mewtwo are pretty cool
>>323973951
The Pokken roster is kinda lacking in bipedal or uniquely body structured Pokemon, so seeing Chandelure and Suicune is pretty refreshing. At least, that's what I think.
>>323969695
he was so close...
>>323974298
You can make a bowl of oatmeal work as a fighting game character if you're as crazy as Sakurai. That isn't the point at all. The insanity comes from actually wanting that bowl of oatmeal.
>>323974214
Because of how different it is from the rest of the cast.
Every fighting game roster needs at least one or two entries that have an amount of "what the fuck" or it isn't interesting. Chandelure hits that niche very nicely.
>>323974298

Must be the work of a salty Swampert lover
Soon
Why are Gen V pokemon so good
>>>last thread deleted
Braixen squashed the "NO NFE POKEMON ALLOWED" meme.
Chandelure squashed both the "NO LIMBLESS POKEMON ALLOWED" and "NO BACKGROUND POKEMON ALLOWED" memes.
Swampert's exclusion squashed the "MUH STARTER TYPE PATTERNS" meme.
The ONLY limits remaining are Support Pokemon, and special cases like Magnemite, who was disqualified from entering the game after winning first place in a popularity contest in Japan because they couldn't think of a moveset for him.
>>323974665
Both Pokemon are absolutely shit.
>>323974665
>there are people that wanted furbait instead of a cool-ass mage
I'm not surprised, just disappointed
>>323974602
I don't see how you can make an entire moveset out of floating, but sure.
>>323973951
Do you just want a bunch of Fighting-type Pokemon?
>>323974710
Gen V was a gift from God. The pokemon, the music, the girls, fuck even the story wasn't terrible.
Also, Bisharp for Pokken when.
>B-BUT WHY CHANDELURE?!
>A FUCKING CHANDELIER
>>323974717
All of those patterns were shit, finally people can shut the fuck up.
Still want Swampert though, don't really care about any other starters besides it Feraligatr.
>>323974717
What is NFE?
>>323974814
I'm not the only one hoping for Reuniclus, right?
>>323974853
Not fully evolved.
>>323974682
If it wasn't for the fact this pokemon has a face for waifufags and that it appears in the high level areas in R/S/E, it would've never been acknowledged at all.
>>323974853
Not Fully Evolved
I simply think there were tons of better options and they went with this instead.
we NEED Lopunny/Lil/Zoroark
>>323974856
Not really on my priority list but I wouldn't mind at all. Would be really cool to play as.
>>323974902
Oh right duh
>>323974853NEVERFUCKINGEVER
>>323974717
I still think Swampert is being added.
>>323974814
>could have gotten Whimsicott
Fuck man.
>>323974390
>I think Rosalina and mewtwo are pretty cool
The fact that they have limbs is why I can't accept the comparison.
>>323974586
Is that really it? Yeah that's sort of cool, I guess. But feels unnecessary with a small roster out of hundreds of pokemon to choose.
>Every fighting game roster needs at least one or two entries that have an amount of "what the fuck" or it isn't interesting
What the fuck are you even talking about? That's not even close to true.
>>323974717
Also note that Swampert's exclusion also BTFO'd the "glowing letters in the hint!" meme.
>>323973951
It's a wisp fire/ghost type that disguises itself so it can steal souls. He's a cool ghost type and some people just want to play their favorites regardless of whether they fit the fighting game model.
>>323974825
so?
They're called Pocket Monsters, not Pocket Animals. A soul-sucking lamp definitely qualifies as a monster.
>>323974814
>Whimsicott that popular
huh
i knew Chandelure was relatively popular and one of the more liked Gen 5s, but no idea Whimsicott was that high up
>>323974814
>>323969695
>Mods continually deleting threads
Faggots, we can discuss Pokemon here, it's videogames. Shit like Pokken especially since it's a Tekken/Pokemon spinoff. /vp/ is a shitpost containment board.
>>323974943
Lopunny semes best bet with its recent mega.
But Zoroark is pretty popular.
Liligant not so much,
Hopefully we can just have all 3.
>>323974943
Zoroark would make for a cool doppleganger type fighter sort of like Marionette from Dark Stalkers or Mokujin from TekkenDitto will be 2P for clone matches.

>>323974856
my nigga
Chandelure is fucking amazing. What's the problem?
Cool. I had a chandelure on my team in white, pretty cool pokemon overall. I'm glad we're getting more unique pokemon as opposed to MORE HUMANOID SHIT like /v/ keeps clamoring for.
>>323975112
y tho? Just let it archive
>>323969695
Chandelure is cool and all but don't we have enough fucking fire types already?
>>323969695
As a Gen V fag, I am more than ok with this.
>>323975147
Correct, but it gives explanation as to why Chandelure may have been prioritized over other Gen V choices.
Keep in mind he's the first and only Gen V mon in the game right now.
>>323969695I hope they add an Amie mode for fighters, these models are so good.
Here's hoping for Volcarona.
>>323969695

>>323975412
You can do almost anything with it. It works great with Specs, Scarf or under Trick Room, has sky-high SpA, interesting typing, Flash Fire which boosts its sepcial Fire moves even more etc etc.
This is fucking awesome. Nobody saw this shit coming. Need to see some video of it in action, I imagine it's gonna be a pretty heavy zoner.
>Gen V gets a rep

I'd be ok with this.
>>323974987
You sound like such an insufferable faggot.
I don't particularly like chandelure, I don't hate it but I can appreciate it, and I think he's a great addition, his fight style will have to be totaly different from the rest of the cast since he has no fucking arms or legs.
It's creative, out of the ordinary and he's cute enough, it's fine, now stop being such a faggot for the love of yhvh.
>>323975660
The most popular Pokemon of the generation gets in, yes. That's what happened.
>>323975613
Don't assists jump in like MvC? It would be confusing to have two of the same character on the screen.
>>323975412
statwise it's pretty fucking strong albiet slow, and slapping a choice scarf on the thing can still be pretty fucking scary
design wise it's pretty cute for a fully evolved ghost pokemon as well as an object shaped pokemon. hell, its design straight up reminds me of a Heartless from KH

>>323975856
Yeah like Snivy and Maractus
>>323969695
surprising but not too much
IIRC it's the runaway most well received Gen 5 pokemon design-wise, is pretty strong and has got cool typing
the coolest "object pokemon" imo
NFE
>>323975394
There IS no way to make Zoroark's ability work in the context of a fighting game. Zoroark ismy second favorite pokemonbut if you have to do away with the main thing that makes it unique so that it can work in the game then that would defeat the purpose of including it. People that don't even understand how the pokemon works are part of why Zoroark will remain dead and buried forever.
>>323975412
Girls. I'm serious.

>>323974987
>What the fuck are you even talking about? That's not even close to true.
It's certainly an opinion, if that's what you're having a problem with. But it's an opinion with a few examples to back it up.
Say what you will about genre definitions, but Smash is a game that has always had characters on its roster that are out of left field, and it's certainly better for it.
If your argument is that a pokemon fighting game should "take itself more seriously" than smash, or something, I don't really know what to tell you.
>>323975660
>Gen V gets a rep

Quilava has a way better design than Typhlosion desu

>>323975759

>>323975962
>he doesn't use the Blood Waifu set
>best ghost type gets in
I'm pleasantly surprised how many anons like Chandelure. You make me proud.
>>323975912
Being able to see your opponent's entire team before the battle is what made it dead on arrival, sadly.
>>323975970
You already know the answer, fuck off back to Brooklyn.
>>323976084
I like Golurk better, but it doesn't mean much when they're both in my top 10.
>>323975970
Given the director told western Tekken fans to fuck off after his cat girl character caused a stir, I doubt he cares about your favourite Pokemon.
Chandelure is a cool ghost pokemon, though. Fun idea for a Ghost/Fire type.
I feel like this is their "unorthodox" pokemon pick. I'd much rather see Chandelure than any of the other object-based Pokemon.
>>323975912
>Bayo's guns take that away and it ruins her
>Is in anyway
I'm sure they'll find a way man, don't be so negative
>>323972715
Special moves anon.
>>323975970
hopefully, but Gengar likely wouldve been top 5 or 10 in NA + EU polls as well
that thing is popular as fuck here almost 20 years later and is one of the handful that even normies can probably mention by name
>>323974298
>no special abilities
Nigga she can fucking FLY.
>>323976054
Really? Because Bellossom was a waste of a Pokedex slot and completely inferior to its Kanto counterpart, like virtually every gen 2 Pokemon. Lilligant actually does something unique and has a better design to boot.
>>323976196
I hope it isn't the last.
This is Pokémon, they shouldn't be considered "unorthodox".
>>323975921
You know, I'd have to REALLY get a good look at its moveset before really judging it. I just hope you understand where I'm coming from.
It's a floating chandelier. My imagination can't really do much with that aside from projectiles. That doesn't seem interesting at all, in my opinion. I think the roster for Pokken has been pretty fucking cool, so I hope I can be convinced otherwise.
>>323974814
>>323975020

>>323976571
Nice false flag
>>323976140
That alone isn't what did it. It's more that Zoroark isn't strong enough to be worth running in the first place on a lot of high-end teams. Forcing the gimmick just makes it harder.
>>323976209
But they didn't take away her guns? Hello? Besides Bayonetta is a unique fighter even without them, and that's not really an apt comparison anyway because Zoroark's trait is a lot more abstract than simple weapons.
>>323976528
this in english yet or only japanese and korean?
>>323969695
>ANOTHER FUCKING FIRE TYPE
This is like Fire Emblem users in smash all over again.
>>323976571
The whole point of Chandelure's line is to look friendly, familiar, and inviting. This art ruins the whole concept. Nobody would trust to follow those things.
>This announce means there are 4 fire types
>Fire types have more representatives than needed

>The ONLY limits remaining are Support Pokemon, and special cases like Magnemite, who was disqualified from entering the game after winning first place in a popularity contest in Japan because they couldn't think of a moveset for him
What. This actually happened? Magnemite is actually popular in Japan? Is this some foreign meme I'm not aware of?
>>323976761
Fire types are ridiculously popular in both America and Japan.
>>323976710
Nigga everyone was saying she's was a never ever because without her guns she was nothing, and if you said that shit people would destroy you with "delusional bayofag" since her trait IS her guns
Like i said, too negative friend.
>not Cofagrigus
Oh well, Chandelure is cool too
>>323976871
Apparently so. Magnemite was rallied for as a complete joke by 2ch supposedly
>>323976871
Gengar's inclusion was a result of a popularity contest asking nippons to suggest Pokemon to get into the game, think like the Smash ballot but actually real and not rigged.
Magnemite won but the developers stated they couldn't think of a moveset, Gengar placed second so they chose him in the end.
Honestly who cares if it's another fire type. It fucking floats off the ground and it's from a generation that doesn't have any representation.
It's a really creative choice.
Guys there's fucking 720 Pokemon (I think)
The odds of your favorite to get in were stacked against you in the beginning.
>>323976945
Not him but Zoroark's illusions aren't physical, they couldn't be for attacks. Maybe they'd work for maybe dodge and counter attacks, but other then that it wouldn't work. And taking away what makes it unique would suck.
>>323976871
In BW2, they used Magnemite to mass trade on GTS to build up Join Avenue which grows the more different people you trade with. The two reasons were one, a pun on its Japanese name "Coil" in that it would be a "coil" that connected everyone, and two, because it was a fairly early encounter.
It's basically been a mememon over there since then.

>>323976547
I think it's more because they are from a culture that really does not care at all about anything outside of their island
>>323976871
I remember something in BW2 that involved Magnemites in the GTS.
Probably stems from that.

>People just now waking up to the memo that Fire type pokemon are incredibly well liked all over the world and across a variety of demographics
>>323976945
Those people are also idiots. No one ever said that Smash fans were in possession of great intellect. She's not even the only character in Smash to have used fire arms, that's a stupid assumption to make. Zoroark's illusions are not physical, they aren't attributes that it mimics. It ONLY takes on the appearance of other pokemon, beyond that it's just a random hexing, fire breathing monster. They would have to get real creative to preserve that trait.

They don't have to be physical they can be used for other purposes, possibly making illusions of himself or some shit.
What I know is that uniqueness can still be preserved, bayonetta guys said they'd take her guns away because "M rated" and comparing her to dante

Base it on misdirection, her night daze,flame thrower and dark pulse can all have similar start ups and different trajectories as to confuse the enemy.
She can use sucker punch/substitute by turning into a horrfying apparition, she can also leap forward suddenly this allows combos but can leave her open if she misses.

>Stone Edge
You do not want to switch Chandelure into Machamp unless you're 100% positive it's locked into a fighting-type move. Stone Edge is a OHKO on the most common Chandelure sets and I'm not sure if Chandelure gets a guaranteed OHKO on Machamp without choice specs or being passed boosts. If Machamp has Guts a burn won't do shit either, and you can often switch Machamo into Chandelure when you predict Will-o-wisp to get a free attack boost and scare it off.

A lot of other Pokemon based on objects look like they could be existing, believable animals within the context of the game, even if they do not have natural origins, like Grimer or Trubbish. Vanillux just looks like an actual ice cream cone with a face and a fucking straw stuck in it.

We can assume it means characters they could actually put in the game without shelling out to license the character.

I'm not saying that that's what they wanted you to think.
But that's what they wanted you to think. It doesn't just mean Goku and Shrek, it means anyone popular that they didn't feel like doing.
>>323984564
What am I misinformed about? I'm well aware of what was said, I'm telling you it doesn't matter. Bayonetta was chosen regardless.
Realizable is pretty simple in what it means. Getting the rights to use the character and having them fit.
The poll was never the deciding factor, whether she was number 1 or 1 million doesn't matter. Everyone who wasn't a moron already knew this was the case. So you getting butthurt over him saying she was number 1 makes no difference, that wasn't even the point of the poll. Top votes did not equal getting in, either way. There was nothing to rig.

Yup, acting like a completely condescending douchnozzle sure makes you look like you're credible and should be listened to. Why are you being so antagonistic? I explained that I didn't like them and detailed why, I didn't call you any names or imply that you're an asshole for liking this Pokemon.
They're also based on stalagmite/stalagtites. I like plenty of new Pokemon, just not these. And funfact, the Vanillux line was designed by some white dude and not the usual crew at Creatures. Same guy also designed Golurk and his pre-evo and I thought they were okay.
>>323985324
I didn't say that, I said you wouldn't like it anyway.
And anon I said it's fine not to like them. What I disagree is them being uninspired when they in fact are. If they are uninspired, then they are generic ice cream. But there's layers to their design, so they are inspired after all.
You want uninspired? Snorlax or Charizard.

No Guard is generally better in more situations but Guts is nothing to sneeze at and No Guard can potentially help your opponent. Guts allows you to switch into Pokemon that would normally not only wall but cripple Machamp entirely with a burn. It also boosts attack while paralyzed or poisoned and Machamp doesn't care about being slow and generally doesn't stick around long anyway.
I loved switching Conkeldurr into burns in Gen.V and watching as my opponent takes a good 2+ minutes for their next turn, scrambling to respond, after I OHKO whatever just burned me with Drain Punch, healing Conkeldurr in the process.

Admittedly they might have been a little more creative, but slime monsters are one of the most established monster design tropes in the jrpg genre. Not having a pile of slime with a face would have been weird.
That being said I don't really mind vanilluxe either, because it's not literally ice cream, but it's a stalactite with snow on it to look like ice cream. It creatively brings an artificial spin on nature. Unlike fucking klefki, the most offensive pokemon design in the series, it's literally just a keychain with a face

Same obnoxious hand-holding BW, XY and ORAS had and it lost all the charm and sense of a fresh adventure BW captured so well with having nothing but new Pokemon. I do not understand why it gets so much praise, I saw zero reason to buy it after BW. Even the new egg moves and move tutors were moot if you had an AR.
Endgame for me was breeding and then battling other people, not battling more AI trainers in the tower/frontier for points to buy TMs/items I could get instantly with an AR.

>>323985667
Or they happened to like the number 1 choice and went with it. Being number 1 didn't mean a character would be picked, but it didn't mean they wouldn't either. From the very beginning the poll was not intended to choose the character by total votes. If it worked out that way then it did, either way you got Bayonetta.
>>323985927
It works with Klefki though. It fools people into thinking it's a keychain so that it can steal keys.
I also love that fucker.
Do you think there will ever be a Pokken 2 so we can have a roster that's even remotely decently sized? It's not like I dislike any choices really (except Pikachu Libre please fuck off) but when there's so many possibilities having a small roster burns.
>>323985726
NO FUCK YOU
>no bug pokemon

>>323986051
Well the game will most likely be continuly updated.
But if it sells well I don't see why a Pokken 2 wouldn't be possible.
how would you clowns feel if this thing was in Smash 5?
a lot of people want a "rep" from each Gen and this thing is looking like one of the more popular if not most of gen 5
>>323985945
you'll never unsee it
>>323985927
Klefki is a fairy who allegedly collects keys because they look like him
I get your point but if you are going to make the "artificial spin on nature" point for Vanilluxe the same can be said for Klefki
>>323986051
Depends how well it's doing in arcades and how well it will sell on wii u. They have to hire the Tekken team again for it
>>323986051
No, it'll be dead on arrival.

>>323985465
Grimer's design was simple and effective. It's just a pile of shit. I find a pile of shit that mutated into a living organism due to radiation/pollution more believable than a stalagmite/stalagtite that became an ice cream cone because. And why would it have a fucking pinstripe straw? Where did that come from?
The problem I have with Vanillux, and other newer Pokemon in general, is that the designs are both too busy and/or are based on too specific a manmade item. And before you scream GENWUNNER I feel the same about Pokemon like Magnemite too.
>>323986174
Well, as much as I love Chandy, it'd be retarded to have a "rep" of gen 5 in Smash. People make up these retarded ass rules like "oh, you have to have proper type representation!", which no one developing these games gives a dick about.
But just for what-if?-sake, as far as "reps" for Gen 5, though, they would be a bit tough. Zoroark likely would be if GF didn't handle that pokemon so shittily when trying to push it as the mascot.
Outside of that, Hydreigon, Bisharp, Stunfisk and Genesect are all really the only popular and/or iconic choices. Hydreigon would be based as fuck, but I could only really imagine Genesect.
>>323986213
Iciciles exist in nature, and look like ice cream cones kind of. Keychains don't exist in nature. Fuck the fairy type in general, it's basically just an excuse to say "LOL JUST GIVE THAT RANDOM OBJECT EYES, AND MAKE IT CUTE, NOW ITS A FAIRY!" Slurpuff can suck a big fat one as well

In terms of popularity, Bayonetta only placed first in Europe with no restrictions. In the US, she was 5th after excluding unrealizable and non-negotiable....which literally could be applied to anyone, not just Shrek or Goku. Ridley could be too big, so hes not realizable. Ubisoft could have not offered enough money, so Rayman wasn't recognizable. The list goes on and on. So at the end of the day, Bayonetta was not a winner by any means, only who Nintendo wanted to be playable, and could get the best deal out of.

One of the pixie/event legends like Celebi or Keldeo is very likely
A bug type, maybe Scizor, which would also be their gen 2 rep
Greninja because Greninja
A Normal type, I could see Cinccino, Lopunny, Kangaskhan and/or Tauros getting in, maybe even a flying type like Staraptor
Too lazy to check if any of these are support/background mons but I think they're plausible regardless

And then you have the retards who postulate endlessly over how each and every character choice is a carefully-considered marketing ploy to promote a years-old Nintendo game.
Yup, they put Bayonetta in Smash to sell another 200K copies of Bayo 2 a year and ahalf later! Yup, that's why, not because the fans asked for the character in the poll and the dev team thought thy could do some fun stuff with the character.

>Some modes have been announced for the Wii U version of Pokkén Tournament. First is the standard Single Battle, which has three different difficulty levels. Next is the previously announced local battle where one player plays on the GamePad and another with a standard controller. During this mode, the game will run at 30fps rather than the standard 60fps. Finally is the online mode which has rankings and competitions. It also states that you can use a LAN Cable to link two Wii Us
>Edit @ 05:17: Two new sets of Support Pokémon have also been revealed. The first set includes Pachirisu and Magikarp while the second set includes Sylveon and Croagunk.

>>323986442
Well you don't have to like every design, no one does. But as far as object poke go just get over it? Pokemon are not animals of our world, they are mysterious creatures no one knows shit about. Some of them mimic objects for various reasons.
Don't get me wrong I don't like the vanil line myself, but I don't see a reason to get mad. It wears snow, and can create it. Underneath is a solid ice pokemon. The straw is to expel winds and shit, though of course the placing is to make it look like a straw in ice cream.

It just cuts the number of concurrent matches in half, since you need 2 systems and TVs for full 60 FPS local.
>>323987130
>>323987384
Why is it taxing at all in the first place though? That's the part I'm not getting, there's not much going on. Tone down the visuals, it's a fucking Wii U game people aren't expecting it to look spectacular in the first place. Fighting game players want better performance, not better visuals.
30fps multiplayer basically means it's a 30fps game for all intensive porpoises.
>>323987546
it's not the gamepad/2 screens so much as it is the fact that it's rendering the game twice
>>323987653
The Wii U renders two different things at the same time. It doesn't have the man power to do it.
In the arcades those are two separate machines rendering it.
>>323987552
Yeah, you're right, I missed that. Worries are gone now, that's much better.
It'll still be a bit awkward as number of consoles/TVs is a very real issue to deal with when it comes to setting up large scale tourneys, but the game's no longer restricting the possibility.

This. Platinum was, at the time, the best fucking Pokemon in terms of content. Only Emerald came close in terms of sheer shit to do. When HG/SS followed it up, we thought we would be onto a glorious age of postgame content.

>>323988338
Again, that would not be necessary at all if not for these weird design decisions. Performance is the most important part of a fighting game.
I don't care why it is the way it is, MP not being 60fps unless you have two consoles is a negative and is detrimental to the game and experience. That doesn't help anyone who wants to bring the console and play with friends who don't have Wii Us and/or the game and makes tourney setup more of a hassle. And you need two LAN adapters on top of that, that's yet another accessory I'll use for all of one game like the GC adapter for Smash.

HGSS did not suffer from the slow-ass UI and movement, thankfully. Compare DPPt and HGSS side-by-side and you'll see what I mean.
It takes me almost a full minute to scroll to the bottom of my bag in Pearl, and since there's no PC storage I can't lighten the bag to make that quicker. Surfing is where the slow movement is very apparent. Everything was slow, more time looking at a black screen between battles/zoning, longer animations, longer startup for animations, longer delay between animations/effects ending and you being able to act/input again etc. Simply starting a battle, throwing out your Pokemon and picking your first move is slow as shit compared to pretty much any other game in the series.
It's hard to explain, you need to see it in motion.
