POKEMON NEEDS TO CHANGE BECAUSE.... BECAUSE IT JUST HAS TO, ALRIGHT?!
I wonder which thread OP got btfo in
>>59384010Who’s your boogeyman this time
>>59384010The more things change the more they stay the same.
>>59384010>GF is catering to literal retarded kids driven dumb by ipads and AI instead of smart 12 year olds from 1996>As a result of catering to this demographic and saying "fuck you" to everyone else the games are like a retarded mirrorYes. Yes it does.
Bootlicking is OP's bit and bridle with Kantowank as the blinders.
Say hello to Milktank. She flirts with male Pokémon to distract them!
>>59383850you're not impressing anyone.
>>59383859Hey, just because you never know what OP might be into these days, doesn't mean the usual suspects aren't still likely.
>>59383695This reminded me of Dark & Shattered where the male leonines are quadrupedal centaur lions (wemics) and the females are bipedal catgirls (Felars)
>>59384367
>>59384372Besides a large size difference, the male measures ten feet long and up to seven feet tall, while the females are normally five feet tall, and are extremely agile.
Pokemon characters who would probably be homophobic
>>59383203Why is Gold there hugging Silver and not strangling Giovanni to death?
>>59382071She's one of those homophobic gays who snarls degradation and slurs during sex.
>>59382071As in happy!
>>59382422Holy shit!
Please post Scraggy and Scrafty
Me in the middle.
>Mega barely used in champions Kek it's over
>>59383185Double Intimidate into Parting Shot would have been too sinful for this innocent world.
>>59383174Can I pet you?
>>59383737More like you just give the rape bird free boosts
I like him
>>59376133>tricycle prevocute
>>59351608>runs instead of riding
>>59382997lookin' confy
why can we see her body lines through the dress?
EROTIC
>>59337504Does she not live with her husband? Is she not just your neighbor too?
Home Run Noodle EditionThread 22#Welcome to the monthly mustelid thread. Post noodles and your favorite mustelid critters.Previous thread: https://archive.palanq.win/vp/thread/59264205/Next thread: 7/13
Ash is such a stupid fucking retarded trainer that he never actually beat sabrina
>>59383479they probably ran out of time or budget for a full battle
>>59382994They should have had her (and Surge) make return appearances instead of just Erika.
>>59382994This is Sabrina's best design and it's a shame it was only used for a couple anime episodes and pokemon puzzle league
>>59383262Well its not my fault that ash was written to be a fucking retarded gay bitch that can't battle for shit. All he had to do was use his Pidgeotto to physically attack her kadabra which has no defense
>>59382994Never fully understand that outfit, those yellow circles are buttons? its a two piece set? need images of her taking off that for research...

Best boy.
To understand this, we need to go over a few things.1# egg groups.The Egg Group is a characteristic that determines which Pokémon each Pokémon can breed with.There are about 14 Egg Groups, not counting the Undiscovered group.Each Pokémon can breed with others in its own group, but some belong to more than one group; this leads to situations such as:A Grass-type cannot breed with a Dragon-type.A Grass-type *can* breed with a Grass/Bug-type.A Grass/Bug-type can breed with a Bug/Dragon-type.A Bug/Dragon-type can breed with a Dragon-type.Basically, you can take any Pokémon and trace its lineage to any other, provided you use enough intermediaries.2# Real-world analogue: ring species.Comment too long.

>>59382967>>59383093Thanks for the Biology lesson, bro.I found this stuff quite interesting.
>>59383093>could someone answer what I'm saying?A lot of people are biased against name "friends".Try posting anonymously if you want good responses.Then again, posting anything serious on /vp/ is usually a waste of time.Best shot is to post in a thread with dedicated bumpers, rather than making your own to speedrun page 10...All the best!
>>59383075Not that anon, but the Gen 2 zukan goes into detail about how the egg appears the instant you don't see the mons.There isn't a direct translation(I posted one here but I don't have it) but here's a paraphrase >https://digitalworldarchive.wordpress.com/2022/09/23/professor-elms-research-on-pokemon-eggs/The whole Arceus thing is made up though, we only see Arceus directly making an egg in an HGSS event and Cynthia says its probably the first time that's ever seen. But its not clear if that's the same as the daycare.Back on the OP statement, the gen 1 zukan says Nidoqueen and Nidorina can't breed and despite this, Elm was surprised they didn't make eggs at the daycare which is why I think the daycare "breeding" and the natural way they breed just aren't the same process and thus you can't use egg groups to discuss lineage.That said, through Mew and the type null development notes we do know all pokemon are linked genetically at some point.
>>59383444Thanks; it seems hard to find someone civilized here.On the other hand, some form of genetics comes into play; IVs and moves are inherited even if the father is of a different species.
>>59383084>>59383093A plant animal hybrid like Sceptile might be pure Grass for game balancing , but it's a Monster and Plant type in regards to breeding
What's the best Pokémon movie in your opinion?
>>59383902And they followed it up with a hideous and unneeded remake
>>59374785While Dawn and May just do pokemon contest Lucas and Brendan seem to be strong Pokemon trainers who do battles in the Battle Tower for example maybe even the one from the 7th movie. Ethan also seem to exist as a separate from Jimmy in the animeverse. Ash even meets him. That's only fair because Lyra and Kris also exist as separate characters there.
>>59383039My headcanon is that the pirate captain is also from the water tribe in the 9th movie but a renegade from them. He has the darker skin (it could be just a sun from being at the sea all the time) and the blue hair of that tribe.
>>59381817>After a long flight, Latios and Latias arrive in the city of Alto Mare, flying past Bianca the painter girl and through the Secret Garden, where a girl who looks exactly like Bianca is playing on a swing, before heading off into the distance once more.That was sad and ruined my day... I completely understand now why TPCI doesn't normally rehash the movies into the main anime at all. Especially the good ones like heroes and the celebi movie that shared the same kind of artstyle and lighting techniques. >>59384235i was wondering if they were ever going to reference manaphy in the alola region. Seems like pokemon ranger and the temple of the sea was inspired by disney's atlantis series that was also kind of popular at the time and had an animated tv show too.
>>59384252>Seems like pokemon ranger and the temple of the sea was inspired by disney's atlantis series that was also kind of popular at the time and had an animated tv show tooI think it was more inspired by Nadia the Secret of the Blue Water (made by Hideaki Anno the Eva guy).There is a claim that the Disney Atlantis movie is a ripoff of Nadia similar to the Simba/Kimba claim. I don't know if I should trust the claim but I think it is more likely that the Manaphy movie was inspired by Nadia than by Disney's Atlantis.>i was wondering if they were ever going to reference manaphy in the alola region.I doubt they would ever reference a movie of a previous generation. There were a few references to the movies but mostly within the generation except for the Orange Island Lugia being referenced in Johto.The tribe seems to be based on polynesians or on the okinawan people. They are further away from Alola, Hawaii is also polynesian but I guess the tribe is further west of Alola.
Happy Father’s Day, /vp/
The best father!
So many absent fathers in Pokemon. Never even send an e-mail or call their kids. Sad.
>>59383524And that's why Norman is underrated
>>59381865Persian has a cat? Is it a meowth?

I think Leafeon is really neat

>>59383260It's cheaper to throw some junk together in a day then license out the Japanese audio tracks. They can afford it, but it's a "why bother" situation considering they just dump the show on netflix. I'm not sure how it works in other dubs though.
