Would you suggest me to play the first games in order to get a team for S&M before they come out?
nah
>using pokemon from different gens during you story mode playthrough
Can't do that until January.
>>29316509
I would suggest you play the earlier games before SM because they're fun, and going from a full 3d game to flat sprites and gimped interfaces/features is a little grating so you might be put off if you start with the latest gen and work backwards. At the very least try one of the GBA games on an emulator.
>He wants an open world Pokemon game like Skyrim
No I don't
No I don't. Fuck you, Aoba.
back to >>>/a/ and find your caretaker
>single stage mon
>likely with Pikachu tier stats
Is its typing and fantastic ability enough to bump it to OU or is that too much to hope for?
>>29316360
If it has a decent SpAtt maybe it'll see some use.
>>29316360
I'd say Pikachu-LightBall tier stats
I guess it'll be UU, but usable in OU. It also depends on its coverage, and Ghost/Fairy looks like a type that gets a good coverage
Moveset is going to make it or break it, an almost guaranteed free term is great but really matters what he can do with it.
What would his team be?
>>29316333
Mr. Enter
>>29316349
So, a whole team of Snivy and Prinplup?
(the most egotistical Pokemon)
>Gregory Horror Show
Someone else remembers!
What pokemon is this?
>>29316317
Lurantis
the best
What type was she again?
What would her team be?
idolmaster a shit
>>29316271
I feel bad for you desu
shit taste
Okay, all memes and shitposting aside -- what would be needed to make Luchalitten at least UU?
If we assume it's Fire/Dark, what would make it a better choice over Mega Houndoom?
HP - 80
Attack - 125
Defense - 75
Special Attack - 82
Special Defense - 70
Speed - 103
Total = 535
Probably a shit distribution, but would this be something salvageable if it's given a decent moveset?
All other starters are welcome as well!
>>29316190
Litten was shown to be faster than Rowlet in the Battle Royale showcase, so there's a decent chance that Beltigre will be reasonably fast.
>>29316190
Fire/Dark with fighting coverage. All it needs. Mega Houndoom is already UU with the same typing, and as a physical attacked that has an item and can do all that it can with fighting coverage will just out right be better.
Rowlet3 needs a fucking miracle to be salvageable though. Gale Wings or some crazy Sniper Crit spam shit is literally its only hope.
Poppmaid on the other hand just needs to be Water/Fairy to be above average, anything else would be a bonus.
>>29316331
>implying Rowlet3 isn't grass/ghost
Hi /vp/. 20something casual here.
I haven't played a Pokémon game since Pearl (which I didn't like/bother to finish). But now I have a bunch of friends who apparently own 3DS's and are hyped for Sun/Moon.
I've been getting the itch to dive back in and purchase a 2DS, but what game should I get in the interim? I've been thinking OR to get used to the new design/animated Pokémon battles/etc. Is this a good game? Or should I be spending money on a different post-Pearl installment?
The GameInformer review called OR the best installment in the series.
I c-can't believe you'd just let my thread d-die
>>29316911
Haha silly faggot
>>29316932
W-what's your favorite pocket monster game for the 3ds?

>>29316164
Uh I wanted to do this, too slow
Who else is gonna use lots of Pokémon in the first playthough of Sun/Moon?
For the first time we have training for pokémon in the boxes. That coupled with the Exp Share and the easy dificulty of the games makes me feel like this is the optimal way to have fun (and use every Pokémon you like at the same time).
Me.

I can only fucking think of 7 Pokemon I like this Gen.
Looks like it's Electric type. Discuss.
Calling SciresM, is this a placeholder type in the demo, or is this really A-Dugtrio's typing?
No. Everything has been dummied out with pikachu's stats.
>>29316096
boring, i was expecting fire something because is based on pele's hair, maybe rock/something
>>29316118
this.
In the scenario that you got cancer or something and had a chance to use the Make-A-Wish foundation to make Game Freak do something to a Pokemon in the series or add a new one, what would you do?
poorly thought-out rules:
things you can do
>make a new pokemon
>give it a mega, or something like a permanent alternate form i.e. midday/midnight, you can change its typing in either scenario, and give it a different statspread in the case of an alternate form while doing the usual 100 bst boost and slight stat reductions to a mega
>give a group of related pokemon (ie starters or version exclusive counterparts) a new form
>give it a slight bst boost
>add a secondary typing or if it's already a dual-type then change one of its types
>rearrange up to 25 points in its statspread
>add moves to its movepools, five at most
>give it a hidden ability or replace one of its normal ones
things you CAN'T do
>erase it
>alter both types
>completely fucking change its statspread
>replace all of its abilities
>minmax the fuck out of its mega
let me start i guess
>midday/midnight forms for the alola starters
dunno which category the actual ones would fall under though
>give litten a quadrupedal evolution to appease people who don't like luchalitten, make it fire/ground or something and focus on speed and special attack
>give popplio a less feminine evolution to appease people who don't like the line's feminimity, make it water/fighting and physically bulky to appeal to people who liked pinnister
>do something owl related for the alternate rowlet final evo form
Give my bro an amazing mega make it so fucking great that it's in OU from day one and gets used in Ubers once in awhile.

Feraligatr becomes the bestest Pokemon ever
ITT: We act like Sun and Moon are coming out next month
>>29316026
i can't wait to play video games
SUN AND MOON DEMO IN 1080P!
Is this what it's gonna be like on the Switch?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbxQXwwURPY&feature=youtu.be
It looks nicer than I would've imagined. Slight hope for a Switch version!
>>29316021
Hopefully the battle environments won't be that pixelated, jesus.
Has potential to look super nice and stylized like NiNoKuni or something.
I'm hyped for the next gen already.
What are your expectations for Sun and Moon's main-game?
>>29315997
Lots of story. Probably as good as B/Ws.
>>29315997
I have no expectations. I only play what's there.
My opinions are boring.
>>29315997
They changed thing so much I can't really say I expect much except maybe a bigger focus on story much like BW
