Reposting the TQ in the updated OP:This week's episode has Tinka improving her Hammer again, with the odds of her evolving again being notably high.While there aren't other September titles known atm:>Take a wild guess at what things Liko and co are gonna do in this month>Should the game marketing continue the semi-regular reveals? State your reasoning>What game characters from Kalos which have not made an appearance beforehand do you want to appear primarily?
>>58194522It feels like a missed opportunity to make it crave all sorts of gold items. I mean it's a treasure box, they are allowed to store more than one type of valuables.Or just allowing them to trade in gold items for Gimmighoul coins.
No episode on the 26th.
>>58196364>Meowscarada tolerating any trainer taking Liko's attention away from her
>>58196373>Dot monthAbout time.
>>58196373Is Tinkatuff demolishing the 26?
>>58196383NTA but it's a reference to last year's calendar and it's just the 9 for September.
Currently rewatching the first chapter.Still baffled by how they got away with the Alley scene.
>>58196385Fading to black allows a lot of leeway with implications.
>>58196370It's not exactly on their priority list to include variations in their evolutions or collecting them.
https://x.com/copituji/status/1961994954047447262/photo/1
>>58196393That's stupid, why wouldn't they put in more thought into it?
>>58196394TL?
>>58196367>Take a wild guess at what things Liko and co are gonna do in this monthUruto diving into why he is distancing himself from girls.
>>58196403That's what I have been waiting on as well. I mean it's a weird thing to be afraid of in Pokemon.
https://x.com/togoya_hanken/status/1962407991711502615/photo/1
>>58196368What did he say?
>>58196414Uruto complained about the Action Replay he found in Roy's bag.
>>58196400The money is more than enough.
>>58196419Is the answer always gonna be money everytime the lack of action at Gamefreak is brought up?
Anyone else not sure how to feel about the new mega designs?
>>58196433They are alright, I would rather pick the old ones if given a choice.
I wonder if the writers have any prefered ship.
>>58196462Probably anything involving the Shoujo boy Amethio
>>58196445Same here. Also what is Anne doing rn?
>>58196469Stuck in DLC-land.
>>58189557>Them actually getting over their beef makes me curious about how it slowly built up to that point.Roy said something that bugged him in the first five minutes and that's how things kicked off.
>>58196377She hasn't murdered Roy yet so she's clearly fine with some of them.
LiYuno?
>>58196367>Dot's duck reaching the final stage>No, keep some a surprise>The Miason sisters if they appear in ZA
>>58196487Anne is gonna be DLC?
>>58196572Keep the Duck the way it is right now.
Dot will trade the duck for a Croconaw that then evolves
>>58196598Can't erase the traces of the Duck. It's gonna stay, it will reach the final stage and you will rike it.
>>58196606No.
Believe in DotLiko.
>>58196622I believe in it every day except fridays.
>>58196598>>58196606Roy might score the water croc. You know, for the double croc thing?
>>58196367Q1.Roy and Uruto seem to be done for now until they're three episode flashback mini-arc. So i hope Liko is looking for an Auspicous Armor and while she's at it she could also help her Hattrem evolve as well. So that way when it comes time to add the last two mons to her team she can just focus on those two.Q2.Yes, it builds hype for the upcoming release.Q3.The rival characters. One of the new guy's on team MZ share some design elements with Tierono. It would a missed opportunity to not bring them back and flesh them out a little more.
>>58196658I still hold out to Team MZ and the Crew working together.
>>58196664I'm sure that's gonna happen. After all they did it before.
>Amethio couldn't cookHow he survived on a island is a miracle to me.
https://kemono.cr/fanbox/user/5342006/post/10495149
>>58196732Why did Uruto do this? Why did he paid off another guy to do such heinous deeds?
>>58196732Dot in her natural non-gay habitat.
>>58196688Berries can do shit like heal you or remove status so guess they are super nutritious. Honestly the food wouldn't be the problem, how did he not get pneumonia when he didn't even know you need to wring out wet clothes?
>>58196414>Why do you care about some old school paper?? They weren't even using it, I gave it a purpose!
>>58196923Kek
LIKO NO!
>>58196367>What game characters from Kalos which have not made an appearance beforehand do you want to appear primarily?Naveen, he seems on par with Liko's goals in terms of battling relevancy.Although Jett is more likely to be featured, old people and all that.
>>58196970What the fuck is that little shit doing?
>>58196923Truly a resolutive and proactive kid
>>58197033Alex's job
>>58196970...source?
>>58197078Not to mention progressive since I am pretty sure that Paldea's history is available in digital format and thus refurbishes material.
Patiently waiting for more Maria content.
>>58196970I thought spaniards weren't white..?
>>58197128Banking on Crave's perspective how he met her.
>>58197134What did you just see?
>>58197134Do Americans really?
>>58197101https://kemono.cr/fanbox/user/5342006/post/6904235
WHERE THE FLYING FUCK IS SANDY SHOCKS?!?!
>>58196970Umm… I think you meant “PAGOGO NO!” not Liko.>>58196970
Do you think any of the two will dump Spinel somewhere down the line?
>>58197176Thanks anonIsn't that the artist who made that kino Spinel doujin?
>>58196364Holy canon!
>>58197189Pagogo is an animal, it doesn't know any better. Liko is a human and should not be tricking her pet into shoving its phallic head into her vagina.
>>58197218STOP SHE'S... actually I don't know that.
>>58196658>So that way when it comes time to add the last two mons to her team she can just focus on those two.Agreed
>>58197219Sickos
He's gonna get away with all of it.
>>58196370>just allowing them to trade in gold items for Gimmighoul coins.That's not a bad idea. Would provide easier means for those who need the dex entries for Gimmghoul and Gholdengo
>>58196735Dot called him cringe.
>>58196385It's showing off the might of Spinel.
>>58197219Girlfriends.
About thte Likonime, any ideas for when they'll do another Manga adaption of a episode?
>>58196377She'll approve once Amethio saves Liko's life.
Remember to always believe in-
>>58197474Based!
>>58197462Probably for the october mini-arc.
Soon.
>>58197268And he will plap Anne on top of things.
>>58197146I think that's something reserved for Hamber's point of view.
>>58196622No thanks, I'm good.
>>58196658>Liko is looking for an Auspicous Armor and while she's at it she could also help her Hattrem evolve as well.I am betting fifty bucks that her team will be evolved before the end of the year.
>>58196414Roy dismissed him like always.
>>58196433Most are misses.
>>58196921Truly a match made through hypnosis
>>58196426Cute.
>>58197219>they see your picha
A Dot le gustan las chicas. ¡LAS CHICAS! Porque las grandes le duelen.
>>58198095The only type that Dot tolerates are the ones who provide her monetary value. Iono taught her well.
>>58197462My best guess is november or december.
>>58198095La puta madre I-Van.
>>58197586>>58198219I am more inclined to believe it's October, minmaxxing the ZA exposure.
>>58198095No es divertido
>>58198095>las grandes le duelenPathetic.
>>58198354If it's not covering his time about obtaining the Cario and meeting Uruto then it might be more november
>>58198288Why is Dot so popular with girls.
>>58198095Liputa when?

When can I expect Anne to show up again?
>>58198470Already happened
>>58196393This isn't necessarily excluding them from featuring it.
>>58198460She looks like a twink. And sometimes acts very submissive and breedable. Some women love being dominant over meek and shy boys.
>>58198492
>>58196808Amethio had a Ceruledge so I guess the worst kind of sicknesses weren't gonna come around from being wet.
>Never caught up with the Gurumin videosWhat a fraud oshi
>>58198496In the event of them going to Blueberry or Anne reaching out for co-relatable reasons to Liko first
>>58196367>Take a wild guess at what things Liko and co are gonna do in this monthSome Explorers/Crew coverage before Uruto and Roy's mini arc has them virtually absent from their events>Should the game marketing continue the semi-regular reveals? State your reasoningThat depends. If it's only Mega evolutions then I am split because they could be doing better work with the designs. If it's more about the little additions then sure, doesn't hurt.>What game characters from Kalos which have not made an appearance beforehand do you want to appear primarily?Jett, the seniors get first seats apparently.
>>58196370Those trades have a tricky field of being abused for cheese grinds
>>58196372Sleeveless Liko looks too good.But playing with cards makes me repulsive of anything that isn't sleeved.
>>58198460Hikkis are often sought out by girls. Dot is a magnet.
>>58196808They can do all of that, that's correct. But the amount of healing is rather small on their own if they're not meta berries.
>>58196688Starving himself off on the berries and whatever other resources is not healthy but it's viable to survive.
>>58198496Some anons made a correct guess that her safe appearances are always in april but whenever something skewl related came up she also showed up.Unless they felt the need to cram another one of those into ZA, the odds of her popping in during the ZA release timeframe is low
>>58196422They are a company, money is the number one driving factor for them. Any other company would kill for even 5% of the commitment that the Pokemon consumers have for even text-based coding.
>>58196370>it's a treasure box, they are allowed to store more than one type of valuables.That is something that has been bugging me as well. I know it's whole thing is supposed to be the collection of its coins but with the treasure box being the basis of its design, you would think that this might have been the case where different forms of Gimmighoul would have different treasury as their forms, like one has obviously the coins and the other jewelry.
>>58196598Roy will have the Croconaw
>>58196578I fucking wish it was the case.
>>58196433I am not gonna sugarcoat it, they're just mediocre.
>>58196433Fat skip
>>58196403Uruto got 100% bullied by one.
>>58196373Fug....
Liko and that Fashion guy would rub Meowscarada the wrong way.
>>58196414He said IF-statements are better than a switch case.
>>58199183>like one has obviously the coins and the other jewelry.Thanks, now I am mad that this isn't a thing.
2 months and 2 weeks until the release of the next game.And while the anime featuring the new Megas seemingly asap is nice, I am not gonna buy the game first hand. Only emulation or second hand on my end.
>>58196658I just hope they're covering the adults a bit more, mainly Ludlow's time during the one year. I ain't buying that he was only fishing while avoiding the eyes of basically everyone.
>>58197470I can see her tolerating Amethio at best. But this is Meowscarada we're talking about. The average portrayal of that beast is clingy as balls.
>>58199176In the future where a type gets added or tweaked notably big might be a interesting condrum. Is Terapagos gonna get a visual overhaul or a new form to make up for it?But won't kid myself, it's Pokemon. In that case Terapagos simply wouldn't be available in that game without any changes.
>>58197474>>58197501Get the feeling that Spinel is gonna fuck them over since they're basically Gibeon and Lucius without the tism.
>>58198354>>58197462No Manga until ZA is out. Afterwards it's free game again plus any one-off guy they're picking for the pages can refer to the game for content.
>>58197273They had something like that with the Pokemarket but it's obviously limiting in that regard out of consideration for the Gimmighoul gimmick
>>58199268That's the only reasonable approach at obtaining the game. The only time where the switch 2 model can be exploited.
>>58183523>What do you think of the latest Mega design that was revealed yesterday?Late to the thread but it's a 4/10, a step up above the first two but that doesn't make it great.
How did Roy became more collected? That's my only question that I want to see being covered in October.
>>58198508Spinel really did a number on that one.
>>58198492FreaKo
>>58196413How the fuck did Spinel bonded with a Umbreon?
>>58198709Pretty sure she remedied that as soon as she got back on board.
>>58197262Somehwere between 18 and 19
>>58197196Sango can be easily bribed.Onyx might do it out of his own volition.
>>58197181In Area Zero.
>>58196593Absolutely not.
>>58199257Roy would never say something so disgusting
>>58199257>>58199433Am I missing something? I don't get it.
>>58199439It's the conditions to check certain elements and what to do when those are matching conditions but there is a fundemental difference between IF and Switch cases. IF will check every time the function is used even if it is redundant and is recommended to never use it in code, especially for games where things are constantly being checked at times. It's the equivalent of checking a hallway of doors for the right living room but continuing to check even if you have already found it. Switch cases are vastly superior and basically stopping the checks once it was found. In Pokemon, IF and Switch cases can be technically applied for level scaling since it needs to check the event flag if a certain badge has been obtained. If-statements would go the list of all the badges to check how many you own instead of dropping things.
>>58199439What >>58199476 has said. A few IFs are fine since they're usually just taking a few milliseconds if you'vd optimised your code and therefore affect loading timesSince it's Gamefreak you can tell (Even if they use Switch Cases) how much that applies to them.
>>58198492Don't care, I still would
>>58199183Doublons, man. Spanish gold
>>58197176>tutorial on how to draw dicksKem
>>58197474It is inevitable. As inevitable as Liko growing up to like DAT
>>58199354Friendship evolutions state that the pokemon has to love the trainer. But it doesn't say that the trainer has to love the pokemon back. This could explain how he and Cyrus have an Umbreon and Crobat. Now obviously, if you have a pokemon on your team that evolves via friendship then it would be safe to assume you love the pokemon back. So naturally when when you see someone with a Snorlax, Lucario, TogeKiss, and the previously mentioned Umbreon and Crobat you don't think "That POS is emotionally manipulating his pet" rather you think "That person put in the time and effort to raise and care for his special partner so that it could evolve and reach it's full potential".
>>58199354Evil Umbreon and aligned with Spinel's goals.
>>58196433Nah, I think they are alright. Many people have posted overdesigned versions after the reveal that make me cringe instead.
>>58199345He had to man the fuck up because Uruto isn't exactly doing it.
>>58199345i'd like to know this too. feels like Roy's whole goofball personality got retconned in S2 to make him more marketable with his random ass shiny Lucario, and they kind of just shifted the comedic relief reigns over to Urutoi actually really love their dynamic, reminds me of Ash/Goh and how the writers had a lot of fun with those two, but i'm sad we'll probably never have a kino Roy/Achigator song again. here's hoping whatever the writers come up with to explain this is satisfying/not a complete asspull
>>58199354Friendship Stat isn't defined by the moral actions of the trainer. Spinel could've committed dozens of Genocides as long as Umbreon enjoys it.

I am split on the duck issue. On one hand, evolving it further demolishes the staple of keeping Pokemon small for the sake of it which I am all for it. On the other hand, it's the final stage of duck.>>58199439It's programming lingo
>>58200455That guy right there? A winner.
>>58199345Might tie back to the Dojo part in the preview. Some French guy told him to get over it.
Croc better fries the Cario while Dickbird watches on.
>>58198812Would find it suspicious if Jett immediately runs into Amethio. Like he is making contact with a lot of old people.
>>58197442How did he do it?
Uruto has collected mega stones amidst his rocks, didn't he?
>>58197218Slut.
>tfw papa agrees to cum on your toast if you simply show him mother is still alive (she still has a few days of starving until she's toast herself)
>>58200716Liko is NOT a incest freak
>>58200716...and then she woke up
>>58196364>Giant Black and Pink Mic HammerHow come Tinkaton's hammer doesn't come in varieties in the game? What a missed opportunity, imagine finding and catching Tinks with different looking hammers.Also, I like how Gimmighoul is helping in picrel, willing becoming an accomplice for the imminent Massacre of Corviknight..I wonder how Dot's Tinkaton personality will differ from Poppy's?
>>58200736It might be more into the spotlight with the same vigor it has for pursuing metal or Corviknight.
>>58200736Exactly my words, it would add more character to the final evolution if the hammer varies depending on the scraps you've collected alongside their coloring.
>>58200733... unlike Lucca who will never open her eyes again!
>>58200736>How come Tinkaton's hammer doesn't come in varieties in the game?Because they couldn't bother putting in the effort.
I don't understand why people don't want Quaxwell to evolve. It looks so stupid while Quaquaval looks really cool. It's gonna look so good animated.
>>58196364Forced ship
>>58200816They both look awful in different ways
>>58200816The movement of Quaquaval is quite questionable.
>>58200816Same goes for Crocalor and Skelidirge.
>>58197160Yes
Larry's diss to Sango is lowkey funny ngl.
>>58200870Why? It's not like it's gonna be stuck in its battle idle animation like in the game.>>58200884True. Crocalor looks dumb, I'll be glad to see it evolved.
>>58200898It's the principle of things, that duck is a walking crime.
>>58198401I legit only noticed now Liko's eyebrows.
>>58198812>If it's only Mega evolutions then I am split because they could be doing better work with the designs. If it's more about the little additions then sure, doesn't hurt.What qualifies as a good mega design? I think that's the starting line to be discussed.
>>58196923Uruto dirtying the history books is funny.
>>58196364Cute and canon.Liko is straight
>>58201188Straight forward with her Oshi attitude towards Dot?
>>58201201Straight up vomiting just from thinking about getting close to someone that isn't a male considerabily older than her (and even better if they are related)
Dickbird will get his revenge against Dojocario
>>58201009I think a lot of people will change their mind once they see it animated in 2D.
>>58201226If they are doing it 1 to 1 like a lot of other instances from the game then it's gonna walk like a massive fag.And that's not even considering the leers it will give everyone.
>>58201245It could be worse.
>>58201327How exactly?
>>58200241>Evil Umbreon and aligned with Spinel's goals.Pokemon aren't evil. Their actions? Sure but not their nature. It might see Spinel's deeds as nice
>>58201245And? It'll be a funny comic relief
>>58201075Whether or not it looks like an X or a Y.
The squire!
Cute and gay.
>>58201541That's a good point.
Roy should just beat Liko up.
>>58201595That's not very nice.
>>58196364I wish Amethio and Liko a healthy child.
>>58201621It's what she deserves.
>>58196775Liko is next to her.
>>58201188Liko and Amethio are bisexualRoy, Ult and Friede are "straight"Dot is bisexual with a female preference but will end up with a male anyways Spinel is a tranny
>>58201846And the source for that is?
>>58200601Amethio is kinda the good fit for them. A young man trying to step down the same path as his grandfather, which of course attracts other old peoole
>>58201853My big fat ass and brain
>>58201846Yknow what that kinda checks outThe last one made me go "no way" at first but then I realized you probably meant ftm and yeah, maybe...
>>58200655>Uruto has collected mega stones amidst his rocks, didn't he?Duh, I am shocked that this wasn't the first guess for his hobby.
>>58201923Gotta need more of LiPagos
>>58200736The material looks from a coloring perspective similar to Corviknight.She's forging a hammer with the remains of that species, right?
>>58201983Correct
>>58201226Maybe but I doubt it.
>>58201846He’s not a ftm trans he’s a feminine straight man.
>>58201983>She's forging a hammer with the remains of that species, right?That's low-key morbid but funny
>>58202252So a tranny
>>58202252I don't think he's straight, he's never shown interest in a woman. Or man for that matter. He might be asexual/aromantic, he's too evil to feel affection towards people.
>>58202252>>58202270>>58202280/Pol/ is a few pages down to the left.
>>58202297Ummm no thank you I'll stay on veepee
I demand a Carbink to be added into Uruto's team. Aside from being underrepresented Pokemon, it also adds an extra layer of chaos with Sableye in tow.
>>58199309Maybe but still, some of the dex parts can become extremely grindy.
>>58202297What does /pol/ have to do with that??
>>58202304I rike it.
>>58200418>Spinel could've committed dozens of Genocides as long as Umbreon enjoys it.They didn't thought this through when they made the games, didn't they?
>>58202304Add Diance instead. Uruto’s team theme seems to be Pokemon that can mega-evolve.
>>58200832That's not the Brave Asagi
>>58201853I work for OLM. The last episode has Liko and Amethio's wedding on the Brave Asagi.
>>58202280... Did you just imply asexuals are evil?
https://arch.b4k.dev/vp/thread/57270314/#q57275445I guess they ended up sticking to the Tera leak more closely than expected.
>>58202592No, I implied evil people tend to be ace or aro, not the other way round.
>>58202679The most gullible nurse.
>>58202793
>>58202270But spinel wasn’t born a woman he’s really a man. he’s just designed feminine.
