POKÉMON XY&Z CHARACTER SONG PROJECT VOL. 1:
http://www.megafileupload.com/ao6i/Pokémon_XY&Z_Character_Song_Project_Vol.1.zip
>>25610941
She probably wants Serena to take the quest to be queen more seriously and professionally. The way Serena has approached it has been sort of childish, it seems that she is only aiming for Kalos Queen because she needed something to do rather than it being her dream like it is of Dragonair girl whose name I forgot.
I have all the legendaries except for Hoopa and Genesect, can anyone trade them to me?

I'll be willing to trade pretty much anything you want (including some legendaries i have copies of)

OP's choice.
What was your Pokemon experience like in High school? Middle school/college times welcome too. I'm mostly interested in how peoples' view of Pokemon changed as they got older. I want to hear about it.
I was in High School for the duration of gen 4. Shit was hype.
DP had that secret hype where nobody wanted to admit it but the mention of it made motherfuckers eyes light up. I spent freshman year training mons and sophmore year stomping classmates in secret
Platinum era was a bit less ubiquitous than DP, but damn was it fun. I kept my main teams on Diamond and took on all challengers. I'll never forget wrecking this kid's hacked jap legendary team with my lone Venomoth. Dude got so mad he closed his DS and left lunch.
HG/SS was the next big thing. If you weren't playing it, you were talking about playing it. I remember some kid shouting about Whitney's Miltank in the middle of class, saying just when he got it low "IT DRINKS ITS OWN MILK AND GETS STRONGER!!"
Meanwhile BW got announced and I graduated. Gen 5 came out my first year of college.
I was in highschool when firered/leafgreen came out and someone discovered VBA, which immediately was installed on all school computers and everyone spent hours playing pokemon instead of doing their work
I was the only one who beat it
I was in 10th grade when Pokemon SoulSilver came out. I had abandoned Pokemon in Gen 3 but got a DS after seeing commercials for Soul Silver. Turns out I was but one of many people who experienced this Pokemon renaissance and for the rest of the year there were tons of people walking around with pokewalkers and DS's. Rest of High School saw a decline in people playing Pokemon but myself and a decent amount of others were still hype about Black and White. Overall, a pretty good experience.
I stopped playing some time around middle school, I had an emulator for leafgreen on my phone for like a month
I've only recently gotten back into Pokemon
Which "cute" Pokemon do you use for the contests in OR/AS and with which move? I won the Toughness Master Rank with this guy.
Just use fluffbird for all the contests
It works for Lisia
>>25610342
I just used Cosplay Pikachu for all of them. Apparently that's easy mode, although I don't give a shit about contests and I just wanted the Mega Stone she gives you.
cute
contest
X ORAS
Close enough.
Brake-sin?
Bryk-sin?
I'm personally fond of pronouncing it "Brazen"
>>25610304
>I'm personally fond of pronouncing it "Brazen"
I've been assuming that's correct.
>>25610304
look up a clip from the anime you lazy faggot
tairenar
So I wanted to play Pokemon HGSS and I have the original 3ds xl. The games load slow and specially the controls. I'm just wondering for those that has the N3DS does the Pokemon DS games load better and play better like it was on DS/DSI?
>>25610266
No. The only games that play better on New 3DS are Sm4sh, Monster Hunter 4U, and Hyrule Warriors. No changes in performance to any other games past or present.
Darn alright, the games just feels really sluggish with the original 3ds XL. I thought it would improve on the new one. Thank you.
First time I pop a DS game into my N3DS. I just played for a while and I see no difference from DS lite/DSi/small 3DS

REMIDER: If you need a rescue, post your region. Due to a few things that make no sense, rescues are region locked. It's shitty, but be sure to mention if you're European or American. If you use the .cia in this post, your region should be listed as. American
>>25610256
oh it's cute
i love these two
totally gonna post more of my Red adventures in the morning
i barely listened to it while i was fighting but holy shit is theSecond Dark Matter Battlesong good
it's got just the right amount of heroic anime bullshit crescendos and partner's theme mixed in to make my feels ache
So I hear a lot of people complaining about smogon, that they ban too many pokemon and teams are all to similar. I then look at vgc '16, where there are less bans and everyone is literally playing the same team. So banning too many pokemon is no good but banning too few is also a problem.
So what is a good balance between too many bans and too few? How do you determine how healthy a format is and how would you build a format that has diversity and variety of strategies?
The people at VGC are just really shit and full of pussies who don't have the balls to make an anti-meta team.
>>25610357
The truth is, the way the format is presented you need kyogre or groudon. Their primals are just too powerful. For your next legendary, because you are going to use two of the restricted pokemon, you have 13 to choose from but xerneas, raquaza, yveltal and dialga are probably the best choices. So almost 100% of teams will have those 2 of those 6 pokemon. From there you can try doing any counter meta crap you want but gimmicks don't seems as strong as the raw power of say mega-mom or the sleep control of smeargle.
>>25610468
Playing anti-meta isn't too difficult though. There are a few nice restricted slots that can take on specific threats. Ho-oh can take anything from Xerneas and special Groudon (and physical Groudon if no rock slide), Palkia has a good matchup against both Primals, and so on. I think people are just being overly cautious with this new meta, with this mindset that you have to go standard or you'll fail. I was using a primal Kyogre team early on and got demolished game after game, then switched to a no-primal team (Yveltal+Palkia with mega mawile) and have since gone up to 1700s on BS, and I'm far from a pro player, so it's not impossible.
Ok rank the most important thing to define a gen: The catmons, forget all bias of gens and just honestly pick the cats on merit
Ex:
Espeon > Meowth > Meowstic = Skitty > Purlion > Glameow
Meowstiq > Meowth > Glameow > Skitty = Purlion
Espeon isn't a cat pokemon. Mewoth is high due to Persian in gen 1.
>espeon
>cat
>>25610270
>>25610273
>Nekomata the pokemon
>not a cat
Is this a meme?
Axew = Axe + Jew
Koffing = Coffee
Mew = New
Mewtwo = Mew + two (2) = New + two (2)
Ninetales = Nine (9) + tales (tails)
Arceus = Ark + Jesus
>>25609997
Mankey = Man + Key
Duskull = Dusk + Hull
Shuppet = Shut up + Muppet
Weezing = Sneezing
Woah. I never knew Pokemon could dive in this deep. Combing names to equal a cleverly punned mon name is ingenious!
Tepig = Tepid + Pig
Pokémon Hunger Games when?
