Sun and Moon has some genuinely really funny moments
>pic very related
>>30035888
It's cheesy and lame, but I admit, they did good.
>>30035888
>Kiawe and Gladion look like edgelords
>Kiawe has the most hilarious antics in the game
>Gladion turned an unstable, violent experiment designed to kill things into a cute puppy by loving it
Yuropoor here, what about him?
>>30035888
He looks cancerous in the ashnime tho
>>30035938
His entire trial is one huge comedy with him narrating everything in an over the top manner
>>30035888
>funny moments
>>30035888
>"My dream is to become a professional fire dancer. I’ve been saving up forever to go study dance abroad. But I was just laid off from my part-time job. It seems like nothing ever goes right.."
>His dad hopes you stay friends with him because he's always been a lonely child.
While he has the funniest trial his character was probably the most unlucky and lonely one out of the trial captains
Am I the only one who though his trial was really creepy? There was something quite unsettling about that dance music, Marowak and volcano setting.
>>30036131
You're just a pussy.
>Getting through this trial
>Second Wave
>Obviously notice the hiker but still only consider the three marowak because those are the only options I notice without scrolling down
>My dumb ass guesses there's a change for the Marowak like three times before scrolling down and seeing there's a hiker option
If it was a snake, it would have bit me.
This was my funny moment I just went through.
>>30035888
"This is my Z-Powered Form!"
When you tell Acerola what happened on the trial and in the background you see a Mimikyu
When Lillie is talking about taking care of Cosmog and the little guy is already outside of his bag strolling like nothing
>>30036504
That first part was spooky
Literally everything about Team Skull
There's never been anything in the series as consistently entertaining as them
This has to be the best group of villians ever.
>>30036564
I laughed when you tell them you don't recognize them and Grunt B and Grunt A switch places.
That Team Skull Grunt duo in the fucked up Pokémon Center was quite funny.
>>30036643
Until you realize as someone coming from a ghetto in the inner city the theme and hopelessness of Po Town hits a little too close to home.
>>30036564
Even in the demo they were good.
>>30035888
>tfw Meowth trying to get laid with the new wife after a long trip to a new region
>stepson comes in every two minutes to rest
>starts throwing a fit because mom won't give him some allowance
>Meowth: "Go to your room, son."
>Stepson: "You aren't my real dad! You'll never be my real dad!!!"
>Little shit cries and runs off to his room
>Meowth: "Now where were we..."
The funniest bit is how Guzma's dad hits him with gold clubs.
>>30036942
*golf
>find a hotel on Route 8
>receptionist mentions how a boy rented out a room for 2 years, but is now running out of money since Team Skull doesn't pay much
>that's gotta be Gladion
>check out the room
>Gladion is casually standing in the middle
>talk to him
>"Get out."
I can't find an image of him for some reason but everything about Kahuna Nanu was really entertaining.
>>30036991
kek, this shit is gold
>>30036991
That shit made me literally laugh out loud.
Situational comedy is best
>>30036991
I don't think I've ever laughed as hard at a pokemon game as I did here.
This fucking scene and Kiawe's reaction afterwards were both gold.
I lost it when the hiker appeared out of nowhere with that fucking face...and then takes a group picture with them
>>30037277
>>30037277
>Come, my fine Hiker!
>>30037277
> "Now, what's different in this dance?"
> The new pokemon
> The black pokemon
> The totem pokemon
> The suspicious pokemon
mfw
Honestly, that shot and fucking pose that salazzle fucking makes made me want to get a salazzle
>>30036058
>Visit Kiawe in postgame
>Says he has no time and needs to go to the pokemart
>Go to pokemart, he's talking to someone
>Witness him getting fired from working there
>He was saving for studying overseas
>After battling him he's crushed just leaves
Motherfuckers tell me this isn't the end of his mini event
>>30037923
Don't worry anon, you canbeat his ass again at the battle tree as many times as you like.
>>30036058
>>30037923The joke is that Fire dancing is only a thing in Alola so he's better off staying home.
>>30036618
i had a good chuckle at this.
>>30035888
>>30035888
That hiker
Who cares, he'shot, that's all that matterssorry not sorry
>>30037787
Same, I even considered boxing my Litten just because of that.
>Team Skull Grunts actually calling themselves Grunt A and Grunt B
>Battle Ilima expecting a "2cool4you" guy
>That fucking pose when he's fighting you
It's certainly a step up.
>>30036618
This. Fucking kekked at this
>>30036991
Lost my shit here
>>30038510
that entire trial made me smile
>talk to Ilima for the first time
>skull grunts coming to steal your mons
>Ilima doesn't give a fuck, the music goes back to normal
That made me giggle.
>>30039275
>Ilima just talks to you, not even facing the grunts
>grunts still making their hand signals right next to you
Loved it
>>30039301
The fact that everyone treats Team Skull like a bunch of shitty jobbers in-game is the absolute best
>>30035964
What does this even mean
>>30039454
I dont know why this doesnt happen in more games
Grunts are always absolute shitters that pose no threats and should be treated that way
Haven't played much, so far i love that Kukui gives absolutely 0 fucks about my house's door.
>>30036564
That moment when you first encounter them and Ilima stares for a moment then turns away and their theme music just cuts off. Fucking gold.
>>30039510
Because when you stop treating villains like a threat, the tension fades from the story. But Team Skull aren't the main villains here, the Aether Foundation is. Because of this, you can make fun of Team Skull all you want without diminishing the threat Aether poses.
>>30039510
It happens in Diamond and Pearl til they blow up the lake
>>30039558
>After the third time, Mom comments that if that was Kukui knocking he would have let himself in.
>>30039683
>Kukui actually owns your home
>>30035888
The scene where Nanu shows you the Dark Z-move was great. The look on Gladion's face was priceless.
>>30035888
This was one of the "good" parts.
SM really fucked up in balancing those characters though. I'd take less Lillie and Kukui for more Skull, Guzma, Gladion, and the depressed cop anyday.
>>30037277
Never in a Pokemon game did I ever expect photo bombing.
Shameless
>that guy talking to tou about wingull shit
>all that dumb shit with the grunts
>trial captains like lana and kiawe are actually pretty entertaining
I never would've thought the character interactions would be thus good, genuinely enjoy sometimes just talking to npcs.
>>30040556
Yeah that's one of the things they did well
>tfw I actually got hyped for catching Kyorge at the lake
>>30040556
Lana is a bully. I hate her.
I have no idea why, but that cactus wearing a hat got a laugh out of me
>Sophocles trial
>Q: LAST QUESTION, WHEN DOES THIS SOUND PLAY
>A: When you encounter a totem pokemon!
I smirked.
>>30036991
The comedy of that situation is kind of broken up by the fact that he's slowly going broke and will soon enough be living in the streets and surviving off of rattatas and caterpies
>>30041286
Except for the fact that he's in charge of Aether by post-game so he's fine
>>30036641
>tfw you keep saying you don't recognize them
Fuckin kek.
>>30036564
>Beat Guzma the second time and sit in his chair
>Team Skull grunt runs up to you and assumes you're Guzma before realizing
That caught me off guard
>>30037277
>>30037753
All of this. These have to be the most consistently funny Pokemon games to date.
>>30037277
>Wow!
>How amazing!
>How amazingly wrong you are!
>>30039730
>Kukui actually owns your mom
>the first photo op spot by that notch in the wall
>guy next to it says he felt something behind the wall and fucking karate chopped it
kek
>Go to town Team Skull's taken over
>Their police station is a house for Meowths
I kek'd
>>30043010
>Meowth are all right. They don't care who you are or anything.
>>30043010
>tfw just realize it's a cathouse
>>30038510
I lost my shit at the Marowak taking a "photo".
Also unintentional funny moments from having different pokemon use the "wrong" Z-Move.
Gastly doing Breakneck Blitz looks hilarious.
I loved how when you see Gladion for the first time and the Skull Duo come around and tell him off with "And remember, you will never be part of Team Skull! Ever!"And the "Super Effective" sound effect plays while he clutches his chest
>>30035888
I loved that scene with Team Skull bullying the Slowpoke. The Slowpoke was just oblivious to everything and the cut-aways to the Slowpoke just made me love the little thing.
>>30036641
Goddamn i missed this.
I hope it appears online someday.
>>30036991
I don't get it. What's so funny about this?
>>30036618
>In the cave at the first challenge
>"Yo yo we meet again"
>Choose "who are you?"
>They switch places "Yo I guess you didn't recognize us because we switched places"
I don't know how they've never done this before.
I liked the bit after the mimikyu trial when you're talking to that girl you see mimikyu casually walking off while it's being talked about.
>me seriously looking for slight differences in the Marowak dance
>fucking Hiker out of nowhere
Okay that was weird
>final dance
>stare unblinking at the dance, trying to notice anything different
>Hiker's back y'all. Also huge happy Salandit dancing along
I actually laughed. Really funny, very unlike Pokemon, but I enjoyed it a lot.
The game was A+ in the comedy department
>>30039632
>It happens in Diamond and Pearl til they blow up the lake
First they laugh....
>>30037016
My nigga, I loved that guy.
>team skull grunts trying to steal a bus stop
>YO B, GET YOUR OWN BUS STOP THIS IS OURS
>after you beat them they explain if they stole all the bus stops the buses wouldnt need to go anywhere because there arent anymore stops, thus the drivers could "chill"
>plumeria saying the grunts are idiots but theyre her idiots
>nanu living right outside of po town because the rent is dirt cheap
>the grunts in guzma's palace arguing with each other over taking the other's tank top, which they justify because they all look the same
when the game isnt deathly serious theres some good comedy
>tfw you shoot down one of Hau's shitty jokes
Always brings a smile to my face
Sun/Moon has a sense of humor I didn't expect but I certainly appreciate it.
All the super cheesy stuff seems somewhat self aware, makes the game feel like it has way more personality than previous Pokemon games.
>>30046450
>when the guard recites the passwords back to you and asks if he got them right, you have to tell him no
>because real thugs say no
>>30046631
I actually got stuck on this for a bit because I didn't pay attention to the card that mentioned it
>>30046570
I think Gamefreak going back to the drawing board and re-conceptualising what Pokemon is all about was a real good thing.
You can tell the writers had ton of fun making this game. (I mean read the pokedex entries for starters)
It fits the theme that Alola is basically a real laid-back Hawaii-like place.
So even your villains are pretty laid back too.
That's why Lusamine is so dangerous. She actually has motivation to cause shit to go down. She's like a JRPG madman villain that's totally out of place in such a chill place.
Like if someone dropped Kefka into Doshin the Giant.
>>30036991
>tfw I just got there
Made me snirk
>>30036942
it's implied to be the other way around, anon... guzma was hitting his dad with golf clubs.
The entirety of Po Town
All of the comedy the Skull grunts bring condensed into one place
I lost it at the pokemon center
>>30046872
Po Town is both hilarious and depressing, I don't know how they managed to do it but they did.
>>30035888
i fucking laughed out loud literally when they just ignored them and kept on talking.
>>30036991
>Watching a streamer do this part
>He wants to be maximum edgelord
>Wants to out-edgelord Gladion
>Finds Gladion
>"Get Out"
>Quietly leaves and says nothing
>Out edged
This whole game is great, I picked a good time to come back to the series.
>>30046872
Which is weird since the atmosphere of Po Town itself is oppressive and shitty
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sm3wp_Bchqg
>>30038183
>yo trainer do me a solid
>my body is ready
best professor right here
>>30040556
Every conversation Gladion and Hau have together are gold. Those two play off each other really well.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXe37XCnn-E
Team Skull encounters remind me of that Joke years ago in the Simpsons every time Nsync entered a scene.
So to me it's a very "90's humor" thing, a lot of things in this game have a similar feel.
>>30035888
The Skull Grunts in the Pokemon Center in Po Town. After they do their little rap, then ask for $10 to heal your Pokemon genuinely got a laugh out of me.
Team Skull are now my favorite team because they have so much character and wellGuzmais pretty easy on the eyes.
>>30046953
Well it is a derelict ghetto, of course it's going to be oppressive and shitty.
>>30038183
>My body is ready
I feel like I should roll my eyes at this point but I keep laughing.
>>30047216
It's mainly because he's the sort of character who would say that even if it wasn't a meme yet.
So it works.
>>30047042
"You only have one volume, don't you? haven't you ever heard the expression silence is golden?"
>>30047083
I was expecting much more than 10 pokedollars.
>"Hey, MC! Did you know?"
>Say "of course"
>"I haven't even finished the question yet"
Hau is the best rival
>>30036696
>le unexpected feels :'-( please upvote XD
>The whole masked royal thing mostly because I didn't expect it at all
>Walk inside Lana's house
>Her sisters want to see Lana and MC battle
>Lana chooses to fight outside instead of indoors
>Claims that she would have an advantage in her own house since she knows the layout
>>30036705
"We ain't bad! We're just hard!"
>>30041764
Life is unfair.
>>30042695
I got this on the first one since technically the "Middle" Marowak at the end started on the Left, which is what I thought he meant.
They actually dropped the "A bone to pick with you" line.
>>30036991
This. And
>Gladion being roped into Kukui's routine at the Battle Royal
Made me kek
>Snorlax using breakneck blitz
>watching it go Sanic fast while not even moving its legs
I can hear the headless Kamikaze scream in my head.

>>30048923
The flashbacks to my childhood watching my drunk mom trying to dance are pretty real right now...
>>30048923
Anyone want to sync this up with the team skull music?
I love the zoom ins on Slowpoke's face when Team Skull and the Aether Foundation meet at Memorial Hill
>>30035913
Sun and moon are the darkest pokemon games yet in my opinion but all those things make the game even more beautiful cause you can see the hope shining beneath the despair
>>30049981
Get out, Hopeman.
>>30047083
It's even better if you remember that Pokedollars work like Yen, so 10 Pokedollars should be equivalent to about 10 US cents
>>30049905
Slo-o-o?
>>30049981
You need to leave, Komaeda
>>30049981
>le unexpected deepness
brb gonna share this with reddit
>>30047362
It's literally the sonic/shadow dynamic.
>>30050825
Not even Sonic is as unbelievably upbeat as Hau is. You could punch him in the face and he'd say thank you and compliment your strength
>>30050662
Yo yo yo. It's so cheap
Cuz we know Guzmas got you beat!
Every time you come back
It's more cash for tha sack!
10 cents times a hundred
...
Well I think that's a lot homie.
(Is it a lot Punk girl?)
So far, there have been some parts in this game that have made me actually laugh out loud.
However I have been surprised by the amount of lewdness in the game. Just little things, but it's everywhere.
>>30043919
Gladion doesn't have time to deal with the protag's shit at the moment.
>Hapu forgot to give you a Mudsdale ride because she was too busy ogling Lillie
kek, even the loli's a damned waifufag
>>30043547
>Meowth are all right
>Alolan Meowth are a royalty-only breed
>Nanu, like Acerola, is a descendant of a royal family
