Dusk confirmed to be pure Rock-type

>>33253079
If you think of Dusk Lycanroc as just a Midday Ash Lycanroc reskin it hurts a little less.

This is a shock to no one especially when night didn't get fighting.

Goddamnit, I hate that the fucking anime of all things is taking priority over the games now.
Greninja was a mistake.

Everything about this reveal is pathetic.

I know right.
this is less impacting than that spiky eared pichu

Ashnime needs to stop giving Pokemon new forms exclusively to ash and events. This is SAD beyond words, not even the fucking ground type? Every other dog can fucking dig In Pokemon but not this sand dog with sand rush or someshit, they aren't doing so good this gen

>>33253079
>"Lycanroc's new form like in the anime"
>cannot be obtained in normal gameplay
I'm done with fucking Game Freak. WHY? In Gen 7 Day and Night last 12 FUCKING HOURS! They can make that Rockruff evolves into Lycanroc Dusk if evolved during 17:00-18:00 / 5:00 PM-6:00PM, but no, NO! let's make it yet another event mon like if Cap Pikachu, Gold Magearna (TBA), and Marshadow weren't enough.

>>33253079

>Same fucking height and weight as Midday Lycanroc.
>Pure Rock-type.
>Exclusive to early purchase gift.

Does Game Freak even care about this shit or did they just program this in for the anime?

Can't expect a tiny ass wolf to summon an earthquake. What's more startling is that these little shits can't learn Sandstorm, even though Midday has Sand Rush.

I wish events were permanent
I just wanna catch cool legendaries with my team, man
just let me have that little bit of escapism

no distribution, just permanent events once per playthrough

>>33253170
Yeah its annoying as fuck, I have a ball trying to catch legends.

>>33253221
>have a ball
>trying to catch

well that explains why they barely put any fucking effort into its design. It's just notch eared pichu 2.0.

THREE PURE ROCK TYPE evolutions for Rockruff (all with terrible stats and movepools), two of which look similar and one of which is exclusive to a fucking event.

STOP THIS

Twilight means both, it's just that Dusk fits better in English.

>>33253079
uhhh ok then, only special distribution?
So this wasn't even information about the next games then since it's not attainable in them?
Look im optimistic about most pokemon games, to me even the worst mainline pokemon game is still a good game in my opinion, but is anyone else confused by the complete lack of information regarding the new games?
They come out in what, 2 months?
I guess it is just the "c" title for this gen, but i'd hope they would have something to show for it by now.

>>33253209
But fucking mantyke can learn earthquake, fucking mantyke, not even its evolution, just a fucking small stingray thing that can shake up the earth. But a wolf cant.

>>33253200
>does gamefreak even care

No.

>>33253200
Not really. They were pretty much obligated to shit out information about this thing because the anime's having to rush like hell to prepare for Gen 8's Region while juggling between showcasing everything Gen 7 has to offer, Ash's Island Challenge and Lillie's arc + Family Issues.

Ignore "Dusk." Hell, even ignore "Twilight." Ignore the "part midday, part midnight" deal.
Lycanroc """Dusk""" was probably designed by the anime team. Why else would it be so lazy both in design and in game modeling?
Gamefreak isn't just one idiot. There's a lot of people there designing things and I'm positive at least one of them would've added what people keep pointing out is missing from Dusk. They didn't design it.

>>33253463
No, I feel you.

I dont fall under that typical 4chan cry baby train. I'm not easily bothered by stuff that makes most of /vp/ 'tism out. But this event only distribution is like really god damn disheartening. I could deal with it looking not that different, I just let myself be excited about Tough Claws and a potentially new cool shiny, but now thats even off the table, in addition to all the potential good egg moves that Tough Claws can take advantage of.

Like, what the fuck? What a god damn dissapointment. I'm hoping itll at least be obtainable sometime down the line from normal means.

>>33253491
The anime always does this. It showcased the Pokestar Studios a month before B2W2 came out too.

>>33253079
>"L-Lycanroc will be the Greninja of this gen, you'll see."
How can dogfags even recover ?

>>33253496
True, but you can tell GameFreak was really hesitant to reveal any notable information, but bam, Anime's gotta go fast out of nowhere and now they're gonna have to reveal things before the Anime can.

>>33253507
The anime is promoting it because GF/TPC told them to. It's just promoting this awesome day 1 event a bit ahead of time bso people have time to get excited for it and plan to get the game early. It's not like the event Munchlax got revealed the day SM got released.

What kind of shithead runs this fucking company

>used this snowflake Ruff that you never will get again instead of those fucking ugly starters
Man, this gen have been a disaster after disaster.

>>33253495
for me, it's not just the fact that it's a useless eventmon, this was the first actual information we have had about US/UM since the actual first trailer, but now it's confirmed to not actually BE in the game, at least not without an event.
I had thought this could at least allude to other possible formes for pokemon, but now they've just denied that, and this'll be just like those cosplay pikachus or spiky-eared pichu, which means we still don't really know ANYTHING about the new games.

>>33253554
Yeah, I see what you mean.

I mean, if ORAS is anything to go off of as a new trend, we got ~20+ new forms (Mega's, Primals, Hoopa, etc..). I think Alolan forms are still easily on the table.

But yeah, itd be nice to see like.. fuckin something. I can be patient, but when the first new bit of news is quashed it gets tiresome.

...I mean, does this rule out it at least being able to breed over whatever allows to evolve into Dusk form? Because then it wouldn't be so bad, but this deja-vu Zoroark shit is retarded.

>>33253567
i really hope for just regular evolutions at this point, it's kind of sad, but i was even hoping for more megas.
I wish they'd also just take some more ideas they've had before and use them again, i'd forgive the newer games being way more similar to sun and moons world (like Platinum) if they'd just chuck in a whole bunch of new pokemon evolutions, mega evolutions, and alolan forms.
In fact, i wouldn't mind a new generation with NO "new" pokemon, except maybe leganderies, but pokemon which are evolutions/pre evolutions to weak pokemon, more megas, maybe a couple of alolan formes.
I feel like they think they need to come up with new random ideas every gen, but the problem is that they have some interesting ideas, but stop using them when the next generation roles around.

>>33253592
Well, some distributed 'mon can't be breed - like spiky-eared Pichu - so yeah, probably.

>>33253592
Perhaps, it'll be the same as Ash-Greninja's case and it will be unable to breed.

>>33253592
>does this rule out it at least being able to breed over whatever allows to evolve into Dusk form
if it's just an event form, like cosplay pikachus, you probably cant

I can at least appreciate Gamefreak shitting the franchise to death because it means I have no reason to waste money on a Switch just for Pokemon.

>>33253209
Yet the fucking Koala and Sardine can.

Also, Chansey, Girafarig, Mantine, and Yungoos. There's no excuse.

>>33253915
Not to mention, Lucario can too, which is roughly the same body style, and even less associated with the Earth than a desert dwelling rock doggo.

And they've yet to do anything with Eternal Flower Floette, don't forget about that. Hell, they could've released it in the upcoming games, but we got this recolored Lycanroc-Midday instead. Guess it will never be out in the open.

>>33253205

>is anyone else confused by the complete lack of information regarding the new games?

Personally I'm glad, with ORAS spoiling the delta episode before the games release, and SM revealing 3/4 the dex barring most UBs before release it's nice actually having some mystery.

>>33254814
They actually revealed most of the UBs prior to release.

>>33254824
Well damn.
I'm glad we're pretty much in the dark now.
Avoiding leaks is one thing but spoiling most of the game through official news is just shitty.

>>33254842
>they literally revealed 90% of the entire dex for SM
> literally revealed like all UBs save for maybe 1-2 but at this point I somehow recall seeing them all before release..maybe not kartana/celesteela idek, point stands

>literally revealed every feature the games would have including the fact the league is being built
Hell, i have no idea what they DIDN'T reveal for SM .... that was then, and it was shit. This is now, and it is equal shit. 2 shitty extremes don't make a right

It's sad that I genuinely can't tell if posts like this are bait or if people are really this retarded.

The only physical difference between Midday and Dusk aside from color is Midnight's pompadour, which comtains a big rock. A rock that appearently doesn't weigh anything.
