https://www.gamesradar.com/games/pokemon/the-japanese-patent-office-has-officially-had-enough-of-nintendo-rejecting-a-patent-attached-to-the-palworld-lawsuit-with-rarely-seen-sass/Hold on I thought Nintendo had special pull in the Japanese legal system? Why are they losing patents this shouldn't be happening.

When I play Palworld it just kind of feels like I'm playing Legends Arceus.All these dumb accusations of plagiarism and yet no one ever seems to notice how similar the game is to Arceus. Day 1 I thought LA and Palworld had very similar UIs, and now that I'm actually playing it I can see how much more similar they are. When I was attacked by Depresso and it had the same red eyeball notification like LA and it lobbed a purple ball at me, it's just straight out of Legends Arceus.A new era for the monster catching genre and it's just Legends Arceus but there's a million things to level up. I can't even have a real base yet.
>>59473450There's a little bit of that, but it doesn't really play the same at all. Obviously, since Palworld is a different genre. Tons of time is spent doing shit in your base before going out to just shoot things
>>59473472Why did you name the guild Gamefreak. this only makes me laugh more!
>>59473472You can change world settings to make it less about being in a base, the settings combo and support for mods has a lot of potential, excited for the future

Sylveon without question.Hydreigon has some places on certain teams as a scarfed attacker and anti-Basculegion tech, but Sylveon basically fits on all teams that don't already have a strong fairy attacker.Its output is insane, close to Mega Floette.
>>59474322Hydreigon is still in the UU to this day. Sylveon is lucky to be played outside at RU level.

Light is the only type I can think that has enough justification and variety as a new type since not only is Light an element in many RPGs but "Light" can mean so many things like "Holy" "Pure" "Sacred" and "Divine" or just pokemon that can illuminate creating their own light that's not fire or electricityAlmost like the religious type, I know Fairy type can be associated with light and pureness but Fairy is more like the "Magic" type rather than "Holy" or "Sacred">Wind typeThat's what Flying type Special Attacks are>Sound typeThat's what Normal type Special Attacks are because any normal living being can make sounds>Cosmic typeDoes not have enough variety in creature designs beyond "it's a being from space" and what would it even back strong or weak against?
The truth is that, not only should Light not be a Type (but it *should* totally be an Affinity or Class or a Sub-Type or something like that) but in the same way, Dark shouldn't be a Type either. It makes zero sense to have one without the other. Dark in Pokemon is pretty much just a personality type, it's not really an element or whatever. 95% of Dark Types are just "it uses underhanded battle tactic". It doesn't belong as a Type.
>>59473876>Dark in Pokemon is pretty much just a personality typeI guess Dark Pulse, Dark Void or any Special Dark type move that embody negative dark aura is just "personality"
>>59473876Why is biting an underhanded tactic? Animals bite things all the time.
>>59473914Biting is still an easy cheap tactic to hurt someone, that's the point. Meanwhile effectively punching, kicking or charging into someone takes real skill and power
>>59473888read the description and japanese name for dark pulse, then come back here and tell everyone you're sorry for being wrong
Boulder Mon editionPrevious >>59389214>FAQ>What is this?People are turning into Pokemon in the real world. Some are having the time of their lives, and some are struggling to survive. These are their stories.>How do I join?Just start posting.>What's the lore?People and animals (and at least one tree) are changing at random in their sleep, waking up still in the real world, but now as Pokemon, and nobody knows why (that includes you. Please don't try to explain it). Just enough transformations are occurring to notably change day-to-day life without collapsing civilization. This is not the apocalypse, even if it might feel like it to some characters in the moment. Some people are more in touch with their instincts than others, and some have lost more of their humanity than others. That's about it. Avoid legendaries if possible.>What the Hell is PIPS?In many of the stories, the scientific community in-universe has begun referring to Pokemon instincts and the loss of humanity some people who transform experience as Pokémon Induced Psychosis Syndrome, or PIPS. The term is explained in more detail here: https://rentry.org/sip-concepts
>>59473302Again, take as much time as you need. But also feel free to swing by - lending our ears aside, perhaps the thread can serve as a bit of comfort here or there more generally.
>>59473302Caught up with the thread, just to see your mourning posts. I'm so sorry for your loss. Headaches be damned, I'm pouring a glass of my finest scotch for both of you right now.Rest in peace DigiGirl's dad, your child brought a lot of joy to many strangers on the internet. I'm sure he's proud of you.
>>59473679He was just happy I was there, and wanted me to know life was good to him.He saw both me and mom where so tired but always took time to take care of him as his motor functions deteriorated.He always said he was embarrassed at what we had to do, and he said he always felt like an infant being catered too.We just always said we loved him and made sure he had what he needed.He never knew I did small writing for internet strangers, he probably would have found it weird.But he liked my writing and said I should write shows for TV, he would definitely watch them.
>The good news is, you're apparently a "special attacker," whatever that means, so you're not too strong to keep boxing with humans>The bad news is it's really hard to get the helmet over your ears
>>59473786Your dad sounds like he was a good man, Digi. He definitely seems to have raised you well. My deepest condolences, sincerely.
rank pokemon switch games
>>59472963>PLASSfag thinks their cocaine bag throwing simulator is better than anythingHoly kek
LGPE is the best Switch Pokemon game by far. It is so polished and you can see how much care was put into it.It is probably the most polished Pokemon game together with HGSS and third versions.LGPE is also the best Kanto has ever looked in terms of visuals and attention to detail.
>>59472955ZA > LA >>> SS > LGPE >>> SV >>>>> BDSP
I hate how LGPE forced the Go catching mechanics/removed battles for wild mons AND made a lot of trainers/gyms easier. Despite that it's the best looking Pokemon game, and one of if not the most polished one.
>>59472955ZA > SwSh > BDSP > PLA > SV > LGPE
>Be me>Get excited when you see the trailer for Pokemon GO>It's gonna be the ultimate fucking Pokemon MMO, better than anyone could dream of, and all on mobile>Game releases, it's only catching, but it's great>Account vanishes after 2 weeks, so stop playing until the battling update>Raid battles come out, meh>PvP comes out, is shit>Game ends up being spyware>10 fucking years later, you finally get the game you were hoping for... it's just three different apps, and it's all shitHas anyone actually tried the GO Home Champions experience? You catch a team in GO, you send them to Champions via Home, and then you actually try to win mainline-style battles with pokemon you caught in the park or some shit. I wanted to, but Home really is shit on mobile; they never seem to improve it. And the curated selection in Champions makes me regret not playing shoddybattle back in the Gen 4 days. And then there's that whole "not having a pokemon go account" thing. But if you can get past all that, it sounds like it might be fun?

Hugh from Pokemon BW2 is one of the best rivals in the series. He has that aggressive, competitive edge to his character, always battling you explicitly because he wants to see how strong you've become. Not a pushover friend like modern rivals, not a jackass like Blue or Silver either. I also liked his whole obsession with beating Team Plasma members to get his sister's Purrloin back.Hugh is also chad as fuck because at one point he straight up doesn't even want the pretense of Pokemon battles with Team Plasma, he flat out decks one. Hugh is the best "friend" type of rival Pokemon's ever had. At some points he's behind you, at some points he's ahead of you. He doesn't pull his punches with you, but also enjoys seeing you grow stronger, and his trust in you is unwavering. During the breach of the Plasma Frigate at one point, he straight up tells you to back him up, and there are multiple instances of you and Hugh entering double battles against Team Plasma together.And the final battle against him is perfect. Hugh shows up at the end of Victory Road, his arc with Team Plasma having already been complete. But he didn't just go home, he finished challenging the Gyms and now he wants to see the culmination of your own journey. A small detail that also makes him a chad is his sheer love and trust for his own team. When you attack his starter in the first rival battle, he says "I'll never forget the pain you put my partner through."TL;DR: I'm tired of the Hugh slander. He's the best rival in the entire series.
>>59473371>NOOOOO MY SISTERS PURRLOIN!!! NOOOOO!!>What?! Its evolved and hates me!! NOOOOO!!fucking annoying faggot, just catch another one for her you retard
>Has the exact same as early game Cheren except he doesn’t have a purrloin>Only has starter, monkey, and unfezant for 90% of the game>Only saved by having a whole fourth pokemon (single stage normal type) at Victory RoadIt’s aggressively boring, and I can’t see anyone having trouble battling against him.
>>59473371I remember absolutely nothing about him besides being an annoying faggot at the start of the game and crying like a bitch while getting cucked by LiepardDo you even fight him past those two encounters?

He wasn't supposed to be "morally grey", it was aimed at pre-teen kids, so they made him hilariously evil to tell the wee cunts what to think about him.Fucking staggering every time some casualty of life tries to "fix" pokémon, she's only fucking ignoring the fact they don't want to make it for casualties of life.
>>59472379>>59472077
>still ended up writing a blatantly laughably evil boss figure that was clearly obviously evil compared to the naive young man he controlledYeah, alright kid. The morality came from those who believed N's vision and those part of Ghetsis' plans, not from the figurehead., They were always, to borrow a phrase, black and white.
>>59472492BW2The game actually shows you the dark side of Poké Balls with Hugh's Purrloin, and N talks about it without the game contradicting him
