So many megas are a joke. So many regional forms are a joke. Why do they always seem to make new forms lame reddit joke shit? I think the reason is because it's easy to make something stupid and pass it off as le funny joke (XD it's dumb and I didn't try! Isn't that funny!? It's so bad it's good XD) instead of actually making something cool. Making something that people like because it's actually cool or interesting is way harder. Just make it really stupid and look funny. SEE: A bunch of megas (victreebell, slowpoke, etc)Regional forms (wiglett, alolan dugtrio, all the pokemon where they just give them human facial hair/long necks, etc) (why the fuck do so many of them suddenly they have facial hair? They aren't men. Even when it makes no sense, they give them long hair/mustaches/beards. So randumb XD. It's straight up reddit "humor." Does Japan not know that reddit is mostly bots?)Gigantamax forms (longcat meowth, etc)It's like one guy who doesn't give a fuck about his job keeps making these.I don't know about you, but I didn't get interested in pokemon as a kid because it was a fucking comedy. It's because it was cool as fuck as a kid. Now it seems like so many new pokemon are just a lazy joke and pokemon are retroactively becoming joke lines and caricatures because of the tired people working on this who don't give a fuck. It's not like they're even coming up with something new that's funny, "just put fat lips on it like that mario character lol everyone already knows that's funny." "Lol slap another mustache on one." Some pokemon had aspects that were humorous (and more subtly funny) like shellder biting slowpoke's tail and slowpoke being slow, but it's not like every pokemon is supposed to be a completely retarded fucked up hilarious three stooges joke or meme. Now when they design new pokemon they're like "LOL THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY!!!1!11 BECAUSE IT'S SO RETARDED! WE DID IT AGAIN! IT'S EVEN FUNNIER BECAUSE WE KEEP DOING IT!!" But it isn't funny.
>>58156288>left out the vanilluxe line>left out the klink line>left out the garbodor linehmmmm I wonder who could be behind this post
>>58156762Nobody cares or talk cool better designs like haxorus clawitzer tyrantrum they are forgettable unlike meme designs
>>58156764They belong there trust me. I missed a lot of others. I just only went back as far as gen 6 because that's when I thought the games became completely irredeemable absolute shit.
Oh god is this like how Nintendo of America (so basically ameriburgers) wanted to make the designs """cooler""" when Gen 1 came out?Why do they always want to be catered to at all costs, and yell "MUH JAPAN" when they think the design is a joke or "goofy"?
>>58156767>I just only went back as far as gen 6 because that's when I thought the games became completely irredeemable absolute shitEven though gen 5 did everything worse?Weird take.

>>58156247Could you explain why you pointed that out for these in particular? If anything there's way worse.

>>58156678Yes, it's fine i'll get more level tickets. But god damn it.
>>58156656Super Awakening and EXR for legendary pairs this anni for sure.
>>58154152Doing fine, bought the first 4€ bundle of 2025 so I can select after we get datamine Monday or Tuesday
>>58154152I have about 40k, so should be enough to immediately pity an AS.If I get lucky I may even get 2.
Is Hydrapple really that strong?
I can only assume that Mega Zygarde Mega Evolves from from the 50% form, because assuming it gets +100 BST like all Megas, Mega Evolving from the Complete form would give it a BST of 808
>>58155310I'll name mine Bob
>>58155310>>58150981samefag
>>58155310>supposedly looks like Zygarde-C carrying a fuckoff giant cannonNot sure why being in complete form and having a gun would give it lower stats than just being in complete form.
>>58156765We’re also long past the point of powercreep that 808 would be menacing, considering Megafug exists and can hold an item. The difference between 808 and the ORAS trio is the same as the gap between the Kyurem forms and Zygarde-C and most other box legends. Koraidon has 30 lower BST than Kyurem-B but is infinitely more dangerous.

>>58156457With Eternatus there's nothing that can be done brother, might as well just power ir up and cope. Zygard is likely to get a new encounter next year, so at least there's hope.
>>58156744Completion and/or paypiggying if you used real money
>>58156733this whole week i only got two moltres and wailmer (which was out of the battle pass)
Oh yeah Gigantamax Melmetal might be a thing soon

>>58155366>that international tier textureFaggot should've stuck to his English slop because clearly that's all he knows.
>>58155336Every holographic S-Chinese card has that stamp, higher rarity cards get a second authentication stamp too.
>>58156356Korea print in their own factories and the quality is closer to international than Japanese.
>>58156401>moltres SIR is in a modern set that is 4 MONTHS OLD and still IN PRINT for the next year and a half.This. A Celebrations stamp is a reprint of a vintage card with a built up legacy. And also people are less interested in the art, and more interested in owning a piece of tcg history.Comparatively, most SIRs are popular for the art first and foremost. And the stamped Moltres will never be perceived as a reprint when it's released at the same time as the original is still on shelves. It'll be seen more as an alternate printing. A more fitting comparison would be N's Reshiram, in which the box topper and set card almost assuredly drove each other's prices down.
>>58154136Yeah I guess. I just spent around 300 on BW promo eeveelutions. Guess it helps thinking of it as sort of an investment while it brings me joy, so in the end it's a good purchase.

>>58156479Wish she was my gf, it's so unfair
>>58151397thanks, ive drawn May since then, but i tend to give her enormous tatas
>>58155124Why were so many people fleeing Johto at the same time? Did something happen there?
>>58156743Terrorist attack.
>>58156743Hick region where everywhere that's not Goldenrod is two steps from being a full blown shanty town. Ampharos couldn't even get appropriate medical treatment within its own city. They didn't even have functioning transport infrastructure until GSC/HGSS which is 3 years after RSE.So all those emigrants like Norman et al were living in an even more boring version of what we see in the games. Iirc, based on Fiore being north of Olivine based off irl inspirations, I think even the Ranger 1 protags moved from Johto too?
>pre-Game Cube graphics>tiny wild areas >awful starter line up with only one valid pick>trivializes and devalues mega evolution with awful new forms>no pokémon abilities>limited national dex with barely any Pokémon of repute and smaller than XY>appeases coomers as its exclusive demographic because nobody else wants to play these baby games besides pedophilesThe only way for a Pokémon to win ZA is not appearing in the game.The only way to win as a fan is not buying it. What a disgrace to the Pokémon brand.
>>58156615>>58156604Are you going to get rid of the whole console? Or just the game?
>>58156651Just the game, I'm interested in the console.I'm a little worried they're getting that Switch 2 that's bundled with Pokemon. In that case, i suppose I'll have to exchange the whole console for another bundle.
>awful startersI hate people say this, they are still Pokemon and starters they have fans people already played with them, wanting the most shilled and popular is fucking worse glad gf don't listen the fans
Every Pokemon game is a waste, play better games
>>58156462It's a downgrade of a system and more like a souls wannabe

So I looked at the 2020 Google Pokémon Popularity Contest, and then I realized how many of these got a megaAnd not a single mon from Alola’s Top 30 gets a megaTake that if you will
>>58154919>>58156192Mega Audino That’s that’s only one I can think of without a doubt

Bottom right corner bros we can't stop winning
>>58156424I think it has a chance, if only for how much damage it can do immediately after evolving. If you start first, you're doing 80 on your second turn. If you start second, you're doing 100. +30 if you have Hau in hand, too.
>>58156333doing that yourself is the only fun part of this game bro
>>58156654I don't like the V border one bit
Post and/or discuss your favorite pig based pokemon.
>>58142580I'm the anon that made the Crocodile Thread and going through this thread was peak cozy and made me honestly fall more in love with Tepig and Emboar. The only bad vibes came from the underaged fag who shat his forced meme here. Jannies need to ban that faggot already
>>58155958Yeah, that guy is a schizo. We're still trying to keep the cozy vibes here, so we're ignoring him at this point.
