HOW CAN AN ENTIRE TEAM BE THIS FUCKING INCOMPETENT
WHAT A BUNCH OF FUCKING MORONS.
I want to legitimately punch the one person who had the chance of modifying this move (or removing it at all) yet decided to do nothing about it. This move itself is the biggest cancer in the franchise.
Even worse than furfaggotry.
>HOW CAN AN ENTIRE TEAM BE THIS FUCKING INCOMPETENT
dude, it's literally one guy balancing this game for competitive, if that.
99% of the staff just tries to balance in-game battles
>implying GF cares about balancing for Singles
>>32642957
This. Stealth Rock isn't a problem for vgc or battlespot singles so I don't expect it to get nerfed any time soon. Nintendo has proven time and time again they don't care about 6v6 singles and we can all suck it. That's why communities like Smogon even come up in the first place, we have to balance that game ourselves.
Could Nintendo ever pull off an open world BOTW style Pokemon MMO? With all of the regions from past pokemon games being added as expansion packs and pokemon/items being stored server side. Kind of aggravating that this game is still primarily on handhelds when there is so much potential for an MMO.

>Could Nintendo ever pull off an open world BOTW style Pokemon MMO?
No.
>With all of the regions from past pokemon games
NO. Why the fuck do people always ask about a game with every region. It's such a genuinely bad idea.
>>32642780
Game Freak is too lazy for any of that. They make easy money by just slightly updating the same game again and again.
Some may remember the concept and the previous guy who mainly made these threads back in 2014 (Richards).
>consensus decides on the move used
>If Pokémon Trainer KOs a Pokémon with Fling, then that Pokémon is captured and then that Pokémon will be used from now on in the team.
>To prevent the opponent predicting our moves, we choose moves in this room on a random dead server: http://ketsuban.psim.us/chess
>If a Pokémon is captured when the Party is full, then it will be transported to a Box
>If an NFE Pokémon KOs a Pokémon, then that Pokémon will evolve and its evolution will be used in the next battle.
>After capturing a new Pokemon, the thread will decide its set. It will decide its moveset, nickname, item, ability, EV spread, and nature. Only one move per post, and only one area per post.
Anyway, time for some faggotry RP.

Jesus christ, is it really that hated? Pretty pathetic for a starter when you ask me.

hmm
>>32641428
metamon is a better name but honestly it seems like it would be reserved for a Digimon hero as apposed to a pokemon species

I'm looking for goomy/sligoo/goodra with the hidden ability gooey
I have plenty of pokemon to trade, for instance some legendaries like cresselia, deoxys (shiny too), shiny ho-oh, shiny lugia which all I don't care about, but I know some people probably want them, and I'll never use them (I found them on a game I bought to transfer pokemon up the chain, so I assume they are just injected) also if you could give it an assault vest you would save me a little time, but that's not needed. I also have a bunch of 3/4 IV breedjects of snorunts and roselias
Also feel free to talk about pokemon trades you might need in pokemon X/Y!
~Injectors discouraged please, or at least be honest about it~
Bumping because I need a Pelipper with Defog. I can generate the QR Code if needed
>>32643100
What are you willing to trade for it? I can actually get you that by going through my pokemon diamond game if you really need it, but what do you have to offer?
>>32643145
What are you looking for? I have a lot of Pokemon, shiny and not shiny. If you are going to do it can I give you the set? You don't have to build it entirely, just sex, ability, nickname and Defog

The only objective answer.
I mean, I get it Sugimori was a shill ever since he worked for Gamefreak. He shilled a lot of times. But those things he shilled were mostly his own creations. This on the other hand is a new low. I never would've thought that he would sink this low. Just remember all the fantastic fanart we had of an awesome, well liked Litten evolution. Gamefreak probably had one too. But this is the part where the shill, Sugimori comes in. Because he is a shill and likes Tiger Mask, something no one except him knows what this shit even is, he came up with a brilliant idea. He told the designer of Litten's evolution to scrap the thing and make things go his way. Though instead of designing this shill abomination himself he got an absolute amateur with no understanding of design to do it. This made Sugimori's shilling even worse, spawning this... questionable design. Now as if this wasn't enough he even ensured that it gets promoted the way he wants. How can he get away with this? How can he get away with shilling another unpopular franchise, ruining a decent starter design and bringing the terrible fanbase of it to /vp/?
Reminder that Sugimori also designed Venusaur, probably the ugliest and most hated Kanto starter ever

"...and then there's the issue of the Pokemon species (of Gen V). While there are a select few I can pass off as simple oversights, the overwhelming majority of the new cast make it clear that somebody had to bell the cat earlier - (James Turner) simply isn't going to cut it. Here we have, among the odd, oh-so-marginally modified creature from the crags and valleys of modern-day America, a myriad of monsters who are not monsters, designs which are not designs, and for all it's worth, Pokemon which are not Pokemon. (laughs) I'll put it this way -imagine you are tasked with creating a design for an extraordinarily popular Japanese game, the only pre-requisite being that it be based on your home country. Any American with a sense of pride would choose from the tomes of childhood memories, of history, of the American experience; hell, just on an animal. ...The fact that (Turner) chose, by his own whim, on his own accord, to waste such a privilege on an Ice Cream Pokemon speaks volumes about the man's upbringing, and about his state of mind. Had I worked (at Gamefreak), I would have been affronted, and probably a bit scared." - Salman Rushdie
Hmm...
Why post all of gen 5? I thought James Turner only designed the Vaniluxe, Golurk and Mandibuzz lines.
>>32640731
hmm is OP a fag?
Triple Scoops, Cofagruigus and Genesect are flawless designs
Elemental monkeys and the regional birds are the only turds of the generation
>>32640731
The funniest part is that Turner is British, not American.
