So, can someone explain to me why critics loves SM but fans of the game call it one of the weakest in the franchise?

Requesting this with UB: Assembly
Requesting a Wings of Dawn Lillie based on Adam Jensen in DXMD promotional material in her normal clothes with features of necrozma armor similar to that on lunala, and the "wings" replaced with the wings from Wings of Dawn Necrozma
Requesting Silvally licking UB Assembly
How you like your pokemon, fampai?
>2017
>still buying this
your fault
Interesting, which is what they are. I wanted less animal influence and something closer to Celestela's weirdness, so I'm happy with these two.
Do they, like... Tell the designers to make them as ugly as possible?
Why do they like to shit on my childhood and the only happiness I ever knew? Do they do it specifically so I finally succumb to the depression and kill myself?
So, Dusk Lycanroc will have access to the Elemental Fangs, despite people's initial fears. I'm not sure whether this individual will be breedable or not, since it could be similar to Ash-Greninja or, for lack of a better comparison, Extreme Speed Dratini. The differing natures also indicate that we can soft reset. In short, this thing will be competitively customizable, and it does receive its best coverage moves to go with Tough Claws. That's a lot better off than I thought it would be.
>>33538075
Hopefully being an eventmon, they'll give it a higher BST than the other shitdoggos.
>tfw +110 like Ash Greninja
>>33538220
I really don't know what to expect out of this. I'm not sure if the evolution capability will be tied to the single event individual or if all Rockruff with Own Tempo can evolve into Dusk Lycanroc. I'll try breeding mine as soon as possible. IF it can in fact produce offspring and they can inherit Own Tempo, it would stand to reason that those Rockruff could also evolve into Dusk Form. Honestly, though, in the light of Bottlecaps and EVs made easy, it doesn't matter much as long as you can SR for nature.
If the Rockruff is breedable, I'm betting it has the same BST. MAYBE it could end up with the highest stats of both forms. If it is a strictly event-only "Ash Lycanroc" in all but name (I hope not), then I expect optimized stats. Who can predict GameFreak's moves anymore?
>>33538075
You know it will be another Ass-Gaynigger scenario, sans the BST increase. It will forever be doomed to one game, rotting in it. Besides, +110 on a mon that doesn't need to kill shit to gain it, plus a possible slot for items would be too gamebreaking for a usable story mon, anyway.
Releasing next Friday. Barley showed anything today
Already guaranteed to flop, they rushed through the info as quickly as possible to appease the hilariously low fans the game does have and even then chat was PISSED about seeing it
There's literally nothing to show except for Decidueye, Litten and Popplio, what'd you expect?
>>33538054
Your right lel. They grouped it with the 3rd party "sports games"
They don't give a shit about this. I love it
So what happened to threads for the Pokemon Duel game, anyway? It's been months since I played frequently, so I haven't been checking.
Do people still play?
Why haven't they put in a proper way to save your progress to an account?
So with Umbreon, should I max Toxic or dodge? Please help
vp only play showdon and Main games
It's pretty good now imo. They introduced Carmonite to level pokes to 10, added Megas, and best of all added Room Match events so you can play all-UC halls, no duplicates, etc. Plus Deoxys decks no longer dominate, finally.
Reddit is still pretty active with it, can't seem to hold its ground here. People getting bored I guess. I still really like it
>slow defensive rock type with no reliable recovery
You know it's gonna happen.
>inb4 steel/ghost with recover
>>33537855
>tfw it gets Shore Up as a tutor move
>>33537872
I'd be so fucking happy with this.
Type guesses?
Name guesses?
Stat guesses?
Theories?
Memes?
I think they'll be psychic/ground and psychic/fairy if they follow the current pattern, or ghost/ground and fairy/fire if not.
Burst's fighting stance reminds me of JoJo. I don't know why but it does.
>>33537769
Fairy/Fire and Rock/Ghost
Screenshot this
Burst most likely part Fire. I'd guess Fire/Fighting based on its stance.
Assembly is obviously one of the earth/mineral types (Ground, Rock, Steel) plus something else (Psychic or Ghost probably).
I loved 1-5, Gen 6 was fun/okay (it's nostalgic as heck trough), but Gen 7 absolutely bores me, i like gladion but that's not enough.
I dislike Alola and tropical regions, i dont like the new pokemon they seem pretty boring.
do you like competitive battling? have you filled the dex yet? i did that in gen 6 and it made me like pokemon again. in this gen its like ive done everything there is to do, but competitive is still fun.
>>33537625
I'm in the same boat as you except I hate SM more. Currently the only thing that's keeping my love for Pokémon going is fantasizing about how everything could be done right and all the things I would do if I were in charge.
>>33537625
Play other games
So what the hell is its typing?
and what stats do you think it will have?
>>33537601
probably fairy/fire
high special attack
>>33537601
Pure fairy
mixed attacker
>>33537601
Holy hell. When I inject a UB Burst 'cause I'm a Moonfag, I'm totally nicknaming it Cake Pop.
Rate the above SM avatar.
I'm actually happy with mine, sue me.
>>33537542
>picked the brown skin character
>didn't give her white hair
Disappointed/10. Everyone knows that's a godlike combination.
>>33537542
8/10
>>33537622
9/10
I don't love the hat, but I like those matching colors.
I really wish i could erase all my memory of Sun and Moon so that USUM would be a new and fresh experience for me
Good thing I never played Sun and Moon
>>33537446
I wish I was you.
>>33537446
i-it's not my fault i falled for the "IT ALL CUMS TOGHETER" meme, it was the 20th anniversary and since they also took an extra year instead of making Z/XY2 i thought GF could release an actual finished game for once...
My birthday's today, can we please have a Leafeon thread?
Vaporeon's welcome as well.
no joke, mine is tomorrow. I hate getting older.
anyways congrats anon.
>>33537381
Heh, yeah, I can hardly believe I'm 21 already.
Thanks though, hope you have a good birthday tomorrow too!
Lore Thread? How does it all fit in now
>New Ultra Beasts
>Necrozma absorbing Solgaleo/Lunala confirmed
>Coming out of a blood red apocalyptic looking wormhole
>lore thread
haven't you learned from the past million times that game freak doesn't put any effort into this shit at all
>new ultra beast
they just came to save their bros from getting enslaved by a 12 year old
>necro eating leo and luna
necro wants to be whole again
>blood red apocalyptic wormhole
some meme event for end game before elite 4 or post game
I honestly couldn't believe how evil they portrayed Necrozma. No Pokémon has ever been depicted as this evil. (Don't say Hoopa it was the bottle that turned it evil, Don't say Giritina it loved Shaymin.)
HAHAHAHAHAHA, YOU CAN'T KEEP DOWN THE CLOWN
HE'LL SIMPLY TAKE A NEW FORM AND BE BACK, AND NOW HE'LL MAKE YOU PAY
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH
>>33537302
At least the UB has an ok design
Looks like I'm naming my UB Burst Ballio. Good eye, anon.
>the "they're ultra beasts!" shitposters was actually right
