Give me one good fucking reason why I should trade a Dragonair for a Rhydon
>>58773809Obvioudly, one should take into consideration also Rhydon's kind of barebone movepool. But non-STAB normal moves will be enough for a while and EQ TM is available in VR if anyone does not want to wait till level 65. There's also Dig, I suppose?
>>58773809yeah surely the faster exp group + trade exp bonus will definitely outweigh the time it takes to get a female dragonair instead of just beating clair and catching a rhydon yourself
>>58773814His move pool is decent enough its really just the learnset that sucks. but its Gen II. All learnsets suck.
>>58773296Good luck getting Dragonair to level 55 before postgame. Rhydon is also a really late evolution normally, so being able to get one 7 levels earlier is cool.
>>58773296So you can Rhydon this dick lmao gottem
We're winning the league
>>58772778>soccer team>the literal soccer player pokemon isn't included
>>58772778Rapidash would be better as a winger than a full-back. Hitmonlee'd be teed up for worldie volleys every game with Rap knocking crosses in.
>>58774184>put in cinderace>thread devolves into spergs seething about its inclusion AND football-minded spergs arguing its best position (it's the Libero role, before anyone starts)I can see why it should be added but can also see why OP didn't add it. OP could also be one of the former groups of spergs rather than one of us here who actually follow divegrass.

gen 6 had the most fun meta
>>58771952desu people realized that talon was pretty crap towards the end of ORAS, i think it's gaining popularity now since dual screens HO is everywhere
>>58771952Only in the XY era, ORAS era everything turned extremely boring due to Mega Mence.
>>58771952Charizard for faggots
>>58773991so charizard?
>>58771952Why didn't they give him a mega?
Should he be unbanned from Ubers?
>>58771152Maybe in Gen 10, when powercreep gets so bad that Flutter Mane goes from "incredible" to "just okay."
>>58771810>>58772367She's a Yokai, a Nukekubi to be precise like how Mawile is a Futakuchi-onnaAll Yokai are spirits but not all Yokai are ghosts, some are faes or cursed beings
>>58772579252+ Atk Choice Band Strong Jaw Tera Water Dracovish Fishious Rend (170 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Dondozo: 232-274 (46 - 54.3%) -- 5.9% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery252+ Atk Choice Band Strong Jaw Tera Water Dracovish Fishious Rend (170 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Dondozo in Rain: 349-411 (69.2 - 81.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
>>58773077>Tera Water Dracovish Fishious Rend vs. Water Absorb Wooper: 0-0 (0 - 0%) -- possibly the worst move ever
>>58772407She meant unbanned and allowed in OU again
>Giovanni wasn't evil, his actions were driven by the grief of his son running away from hime.>Maxie and Archie were just trying to make the world more inhabitable. So what if they had no clue about how the ecosystem works? I didn't go to school either.>Ghetsis? Okay, that guy was just an asshole. But he made a lot of work for my dad so I forgive him.
>>58774194*from home, whoops
>>58774194Giovanni's son didn't run away from home. Giovanni abandoned him after he got defeated by Red.
>>58774194Cyprus?
>>58774194The only one who understands Pokemon isn't supposed to be utopic escapism
>hey kid, congrats on reaching mt silver!>you know that cool new pokemon your rival used that you cant find in the wild? you can finally catch your own now, here at the very of the game!>as a reward, it learns no good physical moves and its STAB types are using its worst dogshit stat, good luck using this piece of shit in stadium 2 you cocksucker!What the FUCK were the they thinking?!
>>58773251you'd be immune to every psychic attack and kill every billy's mewtwo*
>>58774166Note how I said "Fire Blast" in recognition that you can't just go "lol psychic" to a dark type.Also, there will never be a scenario where Sneasel outspeeds a Mewtwo of equal level in gen 2 unless that Mewtwo was paralyzed beforehand.
>>58774170except they don't know shit about the dark type (all except umbreon are locked behind post game), that your sneasel has it and how cool it is.Plus they realize team balance isn't just spamming mewtwo but making a team with aura and actualy strategy is more interesting and testing new Pokemon is super fun.
>>58774175>except they don't know shit about the dark type (all except umbreon are locked behind post game), that your sneasel has it and how cool it is.No, they fought the rival's Sneasel and realized "wtf, Psychic doesn't work?" when they tried a Psychic Type Sweep, there is no big "hehehehe gotcha, ur mewtwo is useless lol" unless you're battling someone who didn't bother completing the game.
>>58774182every npc pokemon is easy to beat maybe they defeated it with typhlosion, but now where the chances are equal it would be different

>>58771650My Pikachu is Jolly for the Holidays (and shiny)
>>58771650the 720k were on a single pot upgrade
>>58769907I have 135 friendship for eevee, really shit luck considering>>58771199It's fine for leveling the new releases like Gorgeist, Flygon, and Salamence but I wouldn't use it on stuff over level 50.
>>58772740Honestly I'd be wary of using the boost on anything above 30. It's only 25% more than the regular boost, but that still adds up.
>>58773794The mini candy boost you see throughout the year, it works out that 4x dream shard cost works out to an effective 2x dream shard cost to hit the same target level for a Pokémon.Though of course, that's not what you'll be doing if you want to use every last candy you've got available.I've been holding onto a lot of dream shard clusters to try to maximise their value for eventual endgame, but I'm tempted to use a few since I'm holding probably too many for 1000 item space. I have more handy candy than I'm able to meaningfully use otherwise.I spent a lot of shards boosting a BFS Munna from 15 to 42 today, and I still have Munna candy to spare (accounting for evolution cost). It's for the sake of having a BFS Psychic type when I roll psychic berries at expert GG, and maybe an eventual Cresselia team if I get one worth investing in.
Which Pokemon can you see giving an Orrean form to?
>>58773421mostly some ugly and weak unpopular shitmon since that’s what regional replacements are for
Tarantula hawk wasp BeedrillTrapdoor spider Spidops
>"non-canonical game getting canonical references" memeGame Freak would have to actually make an Orre region for Orrean forms to happen and seeing as they haven't recognised THAT in 20 years, its highly unlikely to ever happen.

>>58771012Yeah, I keep looking at it, the designs are alright, not great, not bad.
I will never hate you Lack Two
>>58734926<1% chance. LGPE didn't get one, neither did PLA. How far is SV? Will that be finished before Gen 10? As much as I'd like to see ZA get the treatment, frankly I'm glad the era of 2 or 3 Pokespe adaptations running at the same time is over so we never get another B2W2 situation.>I honestly think they should get another manga for this content.That would be nice, though the Pokémon manga landscape has been sad since the 3DS. We used to get 2 or 3 adaptations for the likes of Colosseum, Mystery Dungeon, and Ranger. Now, bigger titles like Legends Arceus doesn't have any and I assume Legends Z-A will share the same fate. LGPE did get one, but it was a tutorial one shot on how to play the game.

Majin Pikachu wishes you a merry christmas
Why did the fighting and flying max moves have to ruin dynamax by being overpowered? It's a really cool gimmick that especially shined in cooperative multiplayer
>>58772059Her playing hopscotch with Hoopa's rings, and in one of the rings, she steps on half of the city, as we cut to the outside of Hotel Z with Ansha's shoes crushing half of Lumiose City in the background?
>>58772059>what do you do in this situationIt's just a drawing nothing's gonna happen. Btw have you seen those weird portals around the city? I wonder what's on the other side

Merry Christmas Anons
Genuinely a fun decent album for what it is
>>58773617idk meowths VA seemed drunk on "Little town of Bethlehem" and they kept his anti-semetic rantSo 10/10
>>58773682A Christmas Song is the most drunkest part of the album and that's why it's perfect to listen to if you're alone on Christmas
Saint Valentine's Day is a day you could hateIf you ain't never been out on a date
>>58773682>And who wants to go to all that Yom Kippurin'...Lawl, there's really an anti-Jewish line in Meowth's Christmas Song. Based.
>>58773675Unironically it has some pretty decent original songs
Hopefully with less sperging about whether or not she's a lesbian.
>>58772317Her ships consist of a pajeet who simps for someone else or one of the ugliest default design MCs. I guess at least he doesn't look like a soiboi anymore like Victor and Elio

>>58692227I bet she wants to suck Canari's tits
>>58772317I think she's the most popular of the MZ crew by a fair margin. Wouldn't say she's unpopular but:>>58772676yeah I don't think anyone gives a shit about the Naveen ship. Honestly I think I've seen more people ship Lida with Harmony than Paxton at this point too, which suffers from competing with Gwynn/Canari and Lebanne/Jacinthe. And then there's the pornbrains who just want to pair Lida with Philippe.
>>58774080Even more than Taunie?>Wouldn't say she's unpopularShe has less fanart than the other notable female characters.
Jacinthe is the leader of the SBC and the stand-in "champion" of Pokémon Legends: Z-A.Love her or hate her, discuss all about our chocolate hostess, but be kind, lest you become the newest maid!>Thread GossipWhat was your favorite encounter with her during the DLC?>Previous Thread>>58663676
>>58771974I'm genuinely not fucking expecting it at this rate if even Miriam didn't have official art posted. I don't know what Game Freak's fucking problem is
>>58773392At least with Miriam you know she and the other teachers (except jacq) got left out of official art. Corbeau and Canari having official art indicates Jacinthe, Ivor, and Grisham should have art but TPC is doing fuck all with it for whatever reason.Sadly Corbeau being officially revealed months ago, alongside Philippe(who got no official intro in the news video), and Philippe still having no official art likely means Lebanne, Gwynn, and Griselle fans are fucked.
