So, watching Thursday's episode of the anime, you can see that both Mega Sceptile and Ash-Greninja have a certain move powered up after Mega Evolution; those being Leaf Storm (pic related) and Water Shuriken respectively. So, I know anti-mega fags will be all over me for this but what if every Mega (and Greninja obviously) has a move that's powered up?
Mega Venusaur - Leech Seed (takes 1/4th HP per turn)
Mega Charizard X - Dragon Claw (goes first and gives the same immunities as Bulletproof for a turn) (this simulates how Dragon Claw can cut through moves like Focus Blast in the anime)
Mega Charizard Y - Heat Wave (causes Desolate Land condition for 3 turns)
Mega Blastoise - Hydro Cannon (doesn't require a recharge turn)
Mega Sceptile - Leaf Storm (has 160 BP, and doesn't lower Sp. Atk)
Ash-Greninja - Water Shuriken (has between 90 and 180 BP but only strikes once)
Here's just a few examples. People will say that this is broken as fuck but I'm curious to look into it.

Haha, this is a nice, high-effort reply to this thread! Here, have a (You)!
No but really, OP, this is kinda interesting. Perhaps Mega Pidgeot have Heat Wave powered up to make it a dual type Fire/Flying move, similar to Flying Press.
arm thrust does 30 damage per hit so it out classes close combat

Goddammit.
She's basically Hilda with a sporty sense of fashion and bigger boobs:
They fucking did it guys, they finally created the perfect female trainer and it only took two decades.
Just look at this.

>OU for six i say SIX straight generations
How does he do it?
It took Greninja being banned to put him back to OU for Gen VI.
So it seems like it's because he's a fast water type with a good movepool and high offense.

Jolteon was for 5 now it's RU. What happened?
If I want to get into somewhat competitive battling (not going on tours, but I want to win a lot online), could I do it with entirely gen 1 monsters?
Call me a nostalgic faggot, but they're overall still my favorite. Pic related, I'm tired of these over the top designs in later gens.
>>27430322
yes
Yes.
Charizard, Clefaible, Dragonite, Gengar, Mew, Slowbro, Starmie, Venusaur, Zapdos, Alakazam, Pidgeot, Aerodactyl, Arcanine, Beedrill, Blastoise, Cloyster, Gyarados, Machamp, Nidoking, Nidoqueen, Snorlax, Tentacruel, and Vaporeon are all competitive and viable.

So, I've noticed that the way people nickname their pokemon tend to fall in one of the next categories:
>wordplays
>person names
>weird or pet names
>references
I'm stupidly bad when it comes to word play (plus english is not my mother tongue).
Hell, I'm too bad even to come up with normal names or do references.
So I normally just mix words that reflect something about the pokemon, kinda like you'd do with a superhero, and end up with things like:
Magnezone - Summerstorm
Aggron - Metalcoat
Metagross - Shycore (ingame timid nature)
Awful, I know.
And the only reference I remember doing was a Torterra named CaptainBravo.
That's why I'm curious, rather of the nicknames you use, why you like/use those and how you usually come up with them.
Also, which of the categories are you in? Of course, don't refrain from posting examples.
I nickname every Pokemon I use. They're usually words that relate to the Pokemon (Braixen = Hex, Banette = Vendetta, Clefairy = Starlight, Blitzle = Blackout).
I just feel the need to name my Pokemon certain things sometimes. Snivy was named fern and fletchling was named flurflur. I didn't know their final evolutions when I did this, it just felt right. I just name the Pokemon what I feel like suits it. Unless it's a Pokemon I'm not gonna use, then I name it a completely shitty name.

Why are British people so good at Pokémon?

Are they particularly good? I usually sweep brits, maybe I'm just getting scrubs
Why does nobody use shuckle?

What if he evolved into a super buff turtle bro with shells for boxing gloves and his defense and special attack are swapped?
>>27430137
His hp stat is a whopping 10. It's so low his defenses don't even really make up for it
>>27430306
Sticky web setups and toxics are pretty good on him, what directly outclasses him terms of tankiness?
I was the guy who said he'd tweet Ballio and Friends to Sugimori.
So far, it's been two hours (the same amount of time it took him to block the guys for tweeting Macho Man and Friends) and he hasn't blocked me yet.
I'll give updates as time goes on.
Oh yeah, I remember you. Who knows if he'll do anything about it. Time zones do affect this, so he might not have access to his Twitter yet.

How would you guys like to see the wild pool of Pokemon play out in Sun and Moon? I'm not referring to the frequency here, but the spread of Pokemon. Personally XY was my favorite Gen for this because every route had an entirely new pool that pulled from all generations(it was also great for Nuzlockes which is how I play every new game). Ideally Sun and Moon would follow suit and use a bunch of old Pokemon pre-National Dex, but I'd like a few more original Pokemon than were introduced in XY. I'm pretty certain that there will be more new actual Pokemon and less Megas, but I'm worried that Gamefreak might drop the XY trend of having a really diverse array of Pokemon for each Route.
I have mixed feelings on the available Pokemon for the XY story. I felt overwhelmed by the amount of choice, and it made the region feel more mishy moshy and less distinct. I think there is a better number inbetween 150 and 450 would be more ideal.
It's time for
>patterns
Since Gen 7 is an odd number generation wild Pokemon will include mostly new Alola Pokemon, with few old Pokemon mixed in.
>tfw we'll never have a Gen 5 situation with ONLY new Pokemon again
XY's distribution of the new Kalos mons was piss poor. New Pokemon should have an increased likelihood of being encountered over the older ones.
Rate all of the new Pokemon released so far.
