What the fuck

This whole gen's story line and poke dex entries are just one big sad story

>>30255749
I liked this story.

I teaches you how to throw away your hate. And how to throw items at your enemy to defeat them.

>>30255749
Why is stuff like this so surprising after ORAS and XY? Especially X/Y.

>>30255749
Machamp's super strength couldn't save both? I guess that is why the machamp feels so guilty.

>>30256165
Machamp isn't Superman, anon. He's only capable of so much.

yeah, I did not see that one coming. Muh heart

>>30255800

>>30255749
>The manga will make this machamp fight buzzwole while fat kahuna and kek are holding back pheromosa.

>>30260007
Nope.

>>30260237
When was it? Was it moon exclusive? People kept talking about how Lusamine mentioned Mohn in the other world when talking to Lillie but when I played she never mentioned him.

What if the ball was crushed?

>>30260266
At night, in the Melemele graveyard.

>>30260308
There is a graveyard there? Where? I dont know where to get to the top right part of that island.

>>30260349
>He doesn't know there's a fucking graveyard at Melemele.

Holy shit. Go look at the map next time, maybe. It's just north of the town, up a little hill on the right.

>>30258089
Melemele cemetery later in the game. I think the only trigger is going to Akala but I'm not sure.

>All this just to give us TM Fling

I've only run into the espeon one.

>>30260594

there are a lot more "morbid" ones than the stupid toxipex but you guys are soooo obsessed with it

>>30260809
I should've specified the Moon dex entry

>>30255749
She seems extremely happy talking about her fucking dead husband. Something is suspicious about this.

Remember that time Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man, broke Gwen Stacy's neck after trying to save her with his web? Yeah...I don't think Machamp could've stopped physics.

>>30261222
That was just because they needed to write out Gwen Stacy or else he would have gotten married, ruining his relatability and making him old.

I should be satisfied Machamp is getting promoted recently but is it bad that I feel bad he hasn't received any direct buffs this generation?

I JUST encountered this in-game. I thought it was an impactful scene.

I can see why people would feel bad for it, but the context of what a Stufful is actually like and how that one reacts when you interact with it makes it funny once you realize that it's a joke, unlike the Eevee Trainers.

>>30261397
Don't worry, big man Hala will put our boi on the straight and narrow.

How the fuck did this event happen? Like a split second before a crash, he pulls out his fucking like ball and returns mahamp? wtf was mahamp doing? He let an animal ride shotgun? If he had time to return his Pokemon, he had time to avoid whatever accident. This story is wack

Something about this doesn't make sense...

Daily reminder that was fucking spiderman who started the megazord thing, long before fucking super sentai.
Also, marvel likes it, they made the mecha canon to the comics.

>>30261809

Spider-Man was created by the American author Stan Lee while working for Marvel Comics.

>>30261882

Wrong. It's smaller than Primarina.

>>30261897

Who has, in various interviews, said he was inspired by a fly, but "Flyman" didn't work for him, so he tried other bugs and settled in spiders.

>>30261826
Did you not do the sidequest yet?

>Jolteon Trainer doesn't even remember the Eevee Trainer at all
>Espeon Trainer says that even the sun must eventually set, and the same goes for life; he thinks he sees the moon starting to rise over the horizon
>Umbreon Trainer is at the fucking cemetery

>Sylveon Trainer is fucking dead and passed her life partner over to her granddaughter

>>30261985
>said he was inspired by a fly, but "Flyman" didn't work for him
That doesn't change the fact that he was an American superhero.

>>30262027
And? I never said otherwise.
I just like that bit of trivia.

>>30261985
>Wrong. It's smaller than Primarina.

The images tell a different story, the Machamp shown is clearly much larger than the protagonist.

>>30262073
I guess you can't read then >>30261771

>>30262091
The protagonist is 11.

Irony.
Read my posts again.

>>30262208
No, read mine first.

>>30261997
The Umbreon trainer also says the same shit as the Espeon guy, but reverse the sun/moon part.

Remember how Looker let a non-Trainer die at the hand of an Ultra Beast because he got soft. Someone the team brought because they knew this person was more susceptible to targeting by the UBs?

I haven't reached that part yet, but:

I still can't get over the fact that Gladion is living in a fucking motel. He's a middle-school aged child living in a motel -paid 2 years in advance- who did so to escape an abusive family and his only positive social influence is a dog.

I can't handle that. That's too REAL.

>>30263246
>his only positive social influence is a dog.
don't forget said dog slashed him when he first freed the pupper, hence his torn clothes and quite likely also caused his hand tremors.

>>30263246
I like how null gets its own bed. It's the little things

Is there more than one Lunala/Solgaleo in the pokemon universe? With how the story went, it seemed to me that the Lunala that the natives worshiped isn't the same Lunala that evolves from Lillie's cosmog, meaning that there should be more cosmogs/lunalas/solgaleos in the Ultraverse
>>30263988

>>30255894
Okay the thing with the Floette was sad but aside from that there wasn't much sadness in Gen 6

>>30264127
Absolutely, the game makes it clear that the line isn't unique. Hell, you get another Cosmog postgame even.

>too real

For some reason I interpreted this conversation and that line about being careful with Ride Pokemon as meaning that her husband died in a Machamp-on-Machamp crash.

>>30266947
Yeah, I was wondering about it being ride-related
The roads in Alola rarely fit more than one vehicle at a time, and everyone exclusively owns pick-up trucks.
I'm honestly not sure how a car crash could even occur, much less be fatal, anywhere on Alola.

>>30255749
It's constant crying was kinda unnerving desu
