General Pokémon Thread

I figure that what it means is that Pokken will try and implement some mechanics from the originals, like type match ups and stuff. Not to mention the trailer also features Mega Lucario which I would assume would come from some sort of power meter of sorts?

I also talked about the idea of a trainer equivalent class for this game called "Coaches" which could train Pokemon for brawls (Like wrestling or boxing coaches). Maybe you could select a party of Pokemon?

The Groudon figure looks like it's standing on a cookie!

What a surprise, apparently there's a portuguese among the best PKMN TCG players of the world:

Get TV showcase? Nah we're getting a video preview of what will most likely be what they're discussing.

From what I can tell there's no new information but rather they showcase all that we know but also provide us with preview of much more of the region. Notably :
- Sootopolis Gym inside and outside (but no handsome men to showcase)
- Mt Pyre summit
- Mossdeep Space Center
- The desert
- Um, that mountain between Fallobor and Rustburo
- Pacifidlog town
- Other various places I can't seem to pinpoint

There's also what appears to be part of the Opening sequence.

[Haruka]

Can't wait for that game.

It's very nice to hear some of that nostalgic music being enhanced. I'll definitely be watching a 'let's play' of the game. Maybe some day I'll even own it! Depends on $$$$

[Serza5]

Right guys we have Mega Camerupt, Mega Sharpedo, Mega Gallade, and a possible hint about Rayquazza having something to do with Mega Evolution (Idk that's how Serebii put it).

The primal Pokemon are also being given abilities which are, basically their old ones but more powerful in someway (again how Serebii put it).

And if you're fortunate enough to get next weeks Corocoro there's also a code for a demo of the game.

I hope they don't bugger up Sharpedo because that's one of my favourite Pokemon! Gallade is pretty cool also.

[Serza5]

Mega Sharpedo should be interesting stat wise since it's getting a boost in all of them as well as getting the ability Strong Jaw.

So, I basically preordered the Steelbook edition of Omega Ruby today

[Haruka]

Interesting enough I've started to train a Gallade in the last week. I like the new Mega Evolutions but Mega Camerupt looks funny .

Mega Rayquaza confirmed:

[Serza5]

Is no surprise, highly expected. It looks nice.

[Haruka]

Already expected but damn, the Mega Evolution looks superb!

By the way, downloaded the Pumpkaboo from the Mystery Gift!

[Serza5]

Likewise, and then I started to IV breed it. I have a male one with 31 IVs in everything except Special Attack, and it has an Impish nature. I'm also planning to attempt Shiny IV breeding.

[Haruka]

New Megas confirmed:

Holy cow, I love Pidgeot.

I think Mega Beedrill looks pretty cool too.

[rolesfamily]

Does anyone here watch MunchingOrange on YouTube? I watched his X/Y playthrough all the way through, it was pretty good! He's now doing a Nuzlocke run of Emerald

[Haruka]

Hype doesn't stop going higher!
