Back in my day there were only 151 Pokemon. Now there are 802 and I feel happy for the kids of today. The more Pokemon the better.
>tfw sinnohfetuses aren't underage anymore
>>32748175
Sinnoh was released over a decade ago. At that time gen one was literally the same age as Diamond And Pearl are now. Not to sound like "that guy" but I feel old as shit.
So, picture for a moment that the pokemon franchise dies. It's been running for a number of decades now, but no one cares about it anymore, the games aren't giving money, the anime either. Whatever you wanna say needs to happen in order for it to die, it happens.
As a result of the massive lost of interest, the few fans that remain for pokemon discussion just won't do, and it isn't what it used to be anyways; /vp/ barely has any activity. What happens to this board then? it gets erased? it stays forever even if no one uses it?
Also on the matter of the franchise dying, do you think the moment will come in our time? will gen 7 cause it? will it take more gens? do you even want for pokemon to end? I don't think gen 7 will kill it neither I want it to end, but /vp/ might have different opinions on this.
People will still talk about the older pokemon games

I actually found these article drafts by accident
>December 2016 / January 2017
>mostly see positive comments on SM
>skip a few months
>now it's considered shit
What went wrong?
the honeymoon phase ended
Nothing "went wrong", there's just not much to talk about what with the practically non-existent postgame.
>December it was shiny and new
>January it was not
Is she balanced in OU now?
>she
>>32747853
More like scared out of OU, people run Zekrom with -Speed and Iron Ball just to counter her
>>32747853
Is she really OU?
So many dislikes.

This Pokemon related discussion because everyone here says people who hated USM announcement was switch cucks
Pokken is even less popular in Japan than it is the west and people are mad that Namco is allocating dev time to it instead of making the console port of Tekken 7 worthwhile
Also SM is even more controversial than ORAS, the first Pokemon game to drum up any real controversy there, was for them so there's a good deal of people who don't want ANYTHING related to SM to happen
thoughts on my fakemon sprite? Is it any good?
>>32747814
Not bad. Were you going for the Gen 3 pixel style?
>>32747830
yup.
>>32747814
Electric and Ice?
I mean how im supposed to have fun with this game? it's so boring
I'm sick of Alola and it's shit hawaiian theme
Suck a big white cock while you're playing it.
>>32747568
Nice blog.
Also I don't mind the Hawaii theme. Epsically my first play through. It's cold as shit in canada in November. Going somewhere warm ain't bad.
>There's still people on this board right now that still like Incineroar and the Lycanrocs after the great Pokken and PU breakdown
Your excuses, now
>>32747567
I like every pokemon
If I get doubles, all shitposters falseflagging as owlfags leave /vp/ forever
>>32747567
>purely basing your opinions on shilling and competitive viability
>not taking into account if the pokemon looks good
Post a Pokemon and I'll make a 25-second Dubstep song for it.
I made this http://vocaroo.com/i/s0NpWFdEQ4UA for pic related in about 5 minutes.
Note I can't do all of them obviously, but I will try.

Out of all the Pokemon supporting characters, Hau and Lillie left the largest impression of unfinished business. I would like a Pokemon Colleseum-type RPG that would continue Hau & Lillie's stories.
We left Hau as he vowed to train harder with the goal of finding his father who had left Alola to escape Kahuna Hala's shadow. Lillie, in a much more compromised position, has traveled to Kanto hoping that Bill's genetic transfer tech can heal Lusamine's UB poisoning.
Would you like to see a Pokemon game starring Hau and Lillie? If so, what comes to mind?
For me, I imagine a detective-noir take on Kanto for Lillie's scenario as she searches for Bill while also learning the ins-and-outs of being a Pokemon trainer. For Hau, I envision it more as a battle-heavy linear experience culminating in taking on the Elite Four in the hopes of getting noticed by father.
If there's Kanto postgame in USUM, I think we'll see more to Lillie's story there, it'll probably end with Lusamine cured and Lillie deciding to take on the gyms
Hau got a pretty good conclusion to his arc, he beat Hala to become a Champion challenger
Maybe he comes with you to Kanto to find his father
Maybe it's Bruno
i think their stories could have a conclusion in Ultra moon, and Lillie can appear as a npc in a future game

>Lillie, in a much more compromised position, has traveled to Kanto hoping that Bill's genetic transfer tech can heal Lusamine's UB poisoning.
are you retarded? that's the ending to her story.
she is a pacifist so there's no way she'll become a trainer in kanto.
How would you rescue the rock dogs from PU?

Special z move

Euthanize them
>>32747356
Boost their BST to 525 to put them on par with Lcuario and the Eeveelutions
with the tiny tourney registration soon approaching, what are your teams? biggest contenders?
>>32747348
Why exactly would I want to broadcast my strategy?
>>32747353
because if it's truly a good strategy you'd be confident enough to show it, also I'm pretty much dry of ideas. spent too much time over thinking things.but mostly because I haven't come up with a well synergizing team.
My in game team is literally all eligible, so I'm just going to have fun with them!
Rowlet (never evolved my starter), Komala, Pyuke, Togedemaru, Mimikyu, Toxapex
Or should they simply make a variant of the regular wild battle theme like they did for the Kanto ones in FRLG and Emerald?

Hell yeah, it'd be awesome if every legend/mythical got the Deoxys/Arceus/Giratina-O/Lugia/Ho-Oh treatment. I feel remixes are a bit of a copout, but when done right, leitmotifs can add even more hype (a la Primal Dialga).
>>32747415
Well, I think Ho-Oh and Lugia use the legendary birds theme in FRLG and Emerald, too.
It's not that I dislike unique themes but I was wondering if rearrangements of regular wild battle themes was a bad thing. I think they at least help in deemphasizing that the Pokémon are that much different just because they're legendary or mythical.
>>32747445
>Dude legendary Pokemon are just like normal wild Pokemon
I wish you would leave forever.
Make me a team for the platinum battle tower, /vp/

Will we ever have a /vp/ free of pointless genwars?
>>32746824
post that insults electrode as an objectmon while praising objectmon of another generation
>>32746824
No. What d'you think you're better than me? Probably some Johtoddler.
A /vp/ free of genwars and starterwars would be glorious, which is why it'll never happen.
