So let's get this straight. There are at least 3 new Pokémon of every type -- every single one -- in Alola, save Ice. Of which there is only 1. And it's shit.
I get that it's a tropical region. I get that there are new Alolan forms of Kanto mons (which technically do not count). But why the fuck is Ice treated like shit, again and again? Why do they have such a hard-on for Water, but can't show any love to its cooler cousin? Jesus Christ. I love winter, snow, and all things cold. Ice type has always been my favorite. All I want is a speedy special attacker (125+ SpA/Speed) with a decent special movepool. Fuck this shit.

they dont even need to introduce a new pokemon, they have to make ice resist more moves
>>29884118
They got hail buffs, aurora veil and the best ice type since Weavile and Mamoswine
>Gen where Ice was most buffed
>Feel like it was treated like shit
How?
>Gen 1-5
>Wow! New Pokemon around every corner! This is awesome!
>Gen 6 and 7
>Comb through endless routes of old mons, fine 1 or 2 new Pokemon if lucky, the rest are 1% ratio, may not even come across them on first playthrough
GF drones will defend this
>>29884454
>have to wait for Drizzle animation to trigger every fucking time
Can't wait for the improvement hacks that make new pokemon more common, fix the level curve so XP share isn't broken, and every trainer doesn't have one pokemon
>>29884079
>gen 2
>new pokemon around every corner
ARE THEY SHINY LOCKED!?
wow those are terrible shiny designs
>>29884043
the story one, yesthe one you get on post game from a gift isnt
>>29884043
Yes, like they are every single time when a new game comes out
>>29884062
Shit taste
>>29884016
Yes
Yeah, but again, even a literal turd is better than X/Y.
>>29884016
Definitely
My team has gotten Pokerus. Is it more common in S&M or did I get lucky? How do I keep it?
>>29883746
>How do I keep it?
Box them.
At least that worked before they might have change it.
>>29883746
Keep one infected Pokemon in the PC. The clock doesn't tick while in there.
Ideally, keep lots.
>>29883812
This anon is correct. Capture and infect a useless pokemon with it and store it in the box. However, after a pokemon loses pokerus, it can no longer be infected with it ever again.
I really do hope this story gets finished at some point. AZ was one of the most interesting characters in the series, and the entire Ultimate Weapon plot line wasn't explored as nearly as deeply as it it should have been
By the way, will AZ's Floette ever be retconned into S&M? I'm hoping so
>>29883744
His story was finished, he got his Poke waifu back, let him live happy.
Huh? His story was finished. He got redeemed and he got his Floette back. What the fuck more is there to tell?

terracott is already gimmicky enough
why would you waste a third or half of your team on boosting something to max defense when special attacks and crits exist?
>>29884050
For the funsies
Same reason I plan on running Primeape with Protect and Stomping Tantrum
Has anyone used this thing? I'm trying to understand why STAB Liquidation hits harder than super effective Crunch. Is there any synergy with the ability or something?
It's called STAB you mong
Because STAB = Critical hit. It's the same bonus. And liquidation has base power 85 while crunch has 80.
>>29883679
>>29883718
Just read, you fucks.
>>29883617
>STAB Liquidation
85 * 1.5 < 80 * 2
Yet Liquidation deals more damage. Why?

is kalos ash better than sinnoh ash?
>>29883540
>Drawing one taller than the other.
>>29883586
But Kalos Ash is in fact taller
>>29883540
Yes
Leave PU to me
>>29883536
>>>>>>>
FU at best
It's has decent bulk, it's special attack is great, and has a decent movepool with a good range of options
It will probably be RU, maybe even UU if the stars are in its favor
Straight to BL3
What a cutie.
>>29883528
Poor Mohn. He doesn't even recall the UBs he's been studying all his life. Not even the ones who kidnapped him and took him away from his family.
>>29883528
>oh yeah, btw there's some huge extradimensional dragon thing in the backyard
>>29883575
that's a he?
How did we go from this
... to this?
To this?
...to THIS.
Are there any interesting new items in Sun and Moon?
>>29883338
Adrenaline Orb- Use this item will cause a wild Pokemon to call for help. Hold this item when an opposing Pokemon lowers your attack, gain +2 speed.
>>29883338

>>29883377
