*casually catches a shiny Rayquaza in youre're are path*
>>58984579>in a regular pokeball
>>58984579>youre're are path
>>58984579>Regular pokeball >No luxury ball
he's gonna crawl down it's throat later and you can't tell me otherwise
>>58984579>Its okay when gen4 do it
>>58984579>Regular pokeball>No love ball
>>58984597The catch rate only measures the ability of a Pokeball to contain a Pokemon from breaking free. If a Pokemon wants to be caught the catch rate is 100%, regardless of ball. Roy spent the anime building up his strength and challenging shiny Fug over and over until he proved to it he was worthy of being its trainer. Fug accepted it.
>>58984579Fug? Seems like Fraud.
>>58984579This is so based, Roy is a CHAD
>>58984579They want this faggot Roy to be Ash so bad, and he doesn't even have 1/1000th of the following, nor will he.
>>58984832Noooooo! "something self-insert! something something ashtard! something something brown! something, blah blah KYS!
>>58984597>>58984652You wouldn't believe how easy was to capture Fug in Hoenn remake.
>>58984597This. Fucking triggered me
>>58984579I can't believe this shitty anime will keep airing for another 21 months, probably more
>>58984618What is he gonna do down his throat?
Looks grim.Ashnime generally respected the prestige of legendaries.
>>58985114Not really:Ash didn't catch them because they purposefuly nerf him
>>58984579>ZOMG GUISE DISCOUNT ASH CAUGHT A FUGlol still don't care, bring back my boy
>>58984579Is the Rayquaza in this anime male or female?
so is the show over or what? what threads are even left to wrap up?
>>58984847Yeah, that was intentional, because the whole point of THAT arc was to take you to space to fight Deoxys. Can't retard-filter the kiddies, when you're relying on them CATCHING the critter to progress the storyline. BDSP's were all set to default 3 (where 255 is the highest and guaranteed catch). Which is also beside the point that the anime's catch rules ALWAYS operated under whether the pokénmon accepted the trainer trying to catch it (that whiscash in Hoenn that ate a Master Ball, because it dunked on the faggot trying to catch him, Poipole and Solgaleo willingly joining Ash, with Poipole even returning as a Nagaganadel to battle under Ash) and even without comming to the comments in-thread, I had assumed Fug had accepted Roy, which is why he was able to (finally) catch it.
Did Skeledirge actually beat a Rayquaza?
So why is there just a shiny Rayquaza sleeping in a canyon? I thought there was just one Rayquaza and it's green. Are there multiple? What the fuck is this it's pissing me off I hate the anime.
>>58984579Why is rayquaza black now? Why is pokemon so woke?
>>58985268>So why is there just a shiny Rayquaza sleeping in a canyon?It was part of Liko's ancestor's team which got scattered and the crew were trying to catch them all again.>I thought there was just one Rayquaza and it's green. Are there multiple?Yes, there always have canonically been multiple instances of every Legendary hanging around the world, to keep it in order. Just because the games limit you to one as game mechanics doesn't mean in-universe or lore, there's not more chilling. That's also why there's shiny Legendaries around, there CAN be multiple, thus there can be the chance of a shiny one appearing. All goes back to the Game Freak games where you can sit resetting until you get a shone.>What the fuck is this it's pissing me off I hate the anime.Grow the fuck up, you're an adult crying over a tv show aimed at 7-10 year olds.
>>58985268There are multiple, but this one is connected to a different legend.Hundreds of years ago there were three "ancient adventurers", Lucius, Gibeon, and Rystal. Each possessed a legendary Pokemon as their partner; Lucius owned the shiny Rayquaza, Gibeon owned a shiny Zygarde, and Rystal owned a Terapagos. Over the course of their adventurers they encountered an oasis of Pokemon, high in the mountainous highlands, and named it Rakua. Investigating deep within the paradise, they found massive amounts of mysterious pink crystals that seemed to have life-altering properties, and deemed this "Rakurium". Lucius and Rystal realized this was dangerous, but Gibeon thought he hit the jackpot, and wanted to use the Rakurium to change the world. Lucius fought Gibeon and repelled him out, and to keep the Rakurium from corrupting the world released his Pokemon and asked Rystal's Terapagos to create a barrier to seal in the Rakurium forever. Lucius chose to be sealed too, to keep an eye on it. The effort caused Terapagos to expend all its energy, and it returned to its dormant state as a crystal pendant.Meanwhile Gibeon, who had taken some Rakurium before he fled, used it to extend his life. He still sought the mothercrystal deep within Rakua, but needed Terapagos to undo the seal to get it. He founded an organization called the Explorers to seek out and recover Terapagos, and had a child with some girl, who then had a kid named Amethio. Gibeon raised Amethio to be his successor.1/2
>>58985327Rystal, who was pregnant with Lucius' kid, passed down Terapagos' pendant form as a birthright. Her lineage eventually resulted in Liko, one of the main protagonists. Liko awoke Terapagos and caught it, adding it to her active team. Lucius's lost Pokemon returned to their Pokeballs and were scattered throughout the world, and one washed ashore on an island off the coast of Kanto, found by a local boy, Roy. When Roy met Liko, he showed her the mysterious Pokeball he found, and in a battle with Amethio and the Explorers, the ball opened up, releasing Lucius' Rayquaza. Roy declared that he would one day grow strong enough to catch that Rayquaza.Over the course of their adventures they obtained Tera Orbs, Roy obtained a Mega Ring, and they fought their way back to Rakua. They fought Gibeon and his Zygarde until Zgyarde had enough of Gibeon's shit and abandoned him, and after Terapagos destroyed the mothercrystal for good, Lucius and Gibeon finally died and departed for the afterlife. Amethio was left to gather Zygarde's cells and inherit his grandfather's legacy.And now Roy finally succeeded. He grew strong enough, defeated, and caught Lucius' Rayquaza.2/2
>>58984579>fucks off right afterwards, effectively still being wild
>>58985333It'd be too powerful otherwise. It's a Rayquaza that knows Dragon Ascent owned by a trainer with a Mega Ring. There'd be no conflicts after.
>>58985340Doesn't Fug need to eat a special meteorite to become capable of going mega if we're going by lore
>>58985354Technically yes, but meteorites are Fug's staple food. That's why it hangs out in the stratosphere. It also eats Minior. The real restriction is Dragon Ascent, which normally only the Draconid people can tutor, and was meant to guide Rayquaza into becoming the fabled protector that could save the world. Since Lucius' Fug already knows it, he can Mega Evolve. Also it can gather enough Tera Energy to naturally Terastallize on its own, and prefers to live perpetually in a semi-tera state.
>>58985370>prefers to live perpetually in a semi-tera state.Fug doing Fug things, kek.
Just finished watching the episode and I'm actually fucking mad. It's not because of the obvious "inclusivity" spectrum "the nigger get something" type of shit.. it's because Ult deserves it more. It pisses me off even more they didn't give Rayquaza to him because he's not main character+ he got the debuted mega d.nite.I really do hope later on we discover ult father was part of the Lucius team in the past and got a legendary of his own, like a groudon or sum shi' similar due to him being a ground expert.I do feel really bad for Ult fan's,in this episode he got cucked real fucking hard, because not only he did sacrificed himself for Roy,but the nigger also got the nerve to catch it,when he could leave it alone and have a fair fight against Ult before deciding who's gonna own it.
>>58984652Less about the catch rate for me, as I'm aware that the Pokemon has some say in that - personally, it irritates my Balltism that he didn't use a Luxury Ball to match its colors.
>>58985495It's hilarious how little Roy cares about Ult. The guy hypes himself up as Roy's rival, but Roy could not possibly give less of a shit.
>>58984579Is the new anime worth marathoning?
>>58984579Is Shiny Rayquaza just as common as regular Rayquaza at this point? Feel like there's been a dozen shiny rays in the series.
>>58984579Big deal. I have two.
>>58985174The main storyline seems close to being wrapped up>The 5 heroes captured by Spinel have been released>Roy fulfilled his dream of catching Rayquaza>All that's left is purifying the laquium, for which they need pokémon with all 18 teratypes, the only ones missing are poison, ground and fighting, and it just turns out that Liko and Roy have allies with those 3 types (Anne's ground Samurott, Nemona's fighting pawmot and Diane's poison Pecharunt).The climax is coming soon, but with the games getting delayed until 2027 the anime will have to add an extra arc after the climax and no one knows what it might be about (probably just a mini arc showing all the stuff they skipped from the games, like Ogerpon's storyline)
>>58984832Does anyone even care about this faggot? The Suikune catch caused a bigger reaction than this
>>58985626Absolutely not
>>58986388Is this nigga popular to give him Fugg?
>>58984832I am a brown man and I self-insert as Roy so I take offense to this.
>>58986723Stop making threads moot, go look for a baldness cure or something
>>58984579Was never a fan of legendaries being jerked to be these untouchable deities anyway. In the end they're all just dumb animals made to be caught.
>>58985068Well the one you totally claim to hate the same degree aired for 26 years so this shouldn't be much of an issue.>>58985114Yeah, I loved seeing them struggling against random machines.>>58986407It was literally the goal he has been working all this time towards. It only seems weird to you because you're not used to the idea of story arcs.
>>58986788Ah, there you are. Always the same cope, the same arguments and the same childish passive-aggressiveness
>>58984579This is so fucking retarded
>>58986886Eh, this shit is still a flop so cares anyways.There's barely talk about this shit outside X and Reddit, padt only posts shitty art and the same questions ever.If you see anyone defending this and the show they're from reddit looking at how much overlap there is between the threads and answers
>>58986827Kek, what cope?I'm not the one mad I only got to waste 26 years of my life.
>>58985529I catch everything in Pokeballs because my OCD gets triggered every Pokemon Center visit.
>>58986959Yep, keep coping I'm sure that will help your nigga and his series to be more than a flop
>>58986990>keep coping>brings up le flopino
>>58984579>not catching one into an ultra ballwhat an ass
>>58984597>>58984847anonmega fug is black and yellowwhat ball is black and yellow? definitely not the regular pokeball
>>58984579The pokemon anime has been a joke since BW getting rid of trAsh does nothing as its the same incompetent writers behind it
>>58987019Indeed, I know it hurts but I really hope this helps you
>>58987064>as its the same incompetent writers behind itNo, its "real anime writers" according to the faggots in /padt/ but imagine thinking the Eureka Seven faggot is good lmao
>>58987074cope>>58987066>I know it hurts Yeah, that's why I make weekly seething threads like this about anything that happens on Horizons. Oh, wait.
>>58987156But you do? Every friday there's some Ash falseflag thread, probably just moot but they're still a thing
>>58985221?
>>58987192If even you believed that schizo theory then you'd be attacking the OP.
>>58984579Didn’t he already get a shiny Lucario? How come he gets another shiny?
>>58987249Shiny Ray was the goal long before Lucario came into the picture.
>>58987249Rayqyaza was the goal for Roy since he was Introduced as a character. Thank god this means he has no reason to stay as a cast member any more. Liko's dream can't be realized in a short term and considering the design of the new female protagonist being a mix of her and Chicken she's not going anywhere
>>58987603>she's not going anywhereHoly copium dude. Liko will be gone forever when HZ ends
>>58987652You aren't getting Trash back ever again mate. It's time to give up.
>>58987718How is that related to his post?
>>58987784Because HZ Isn't even a term, It's made up by the dub. The series Is actually just called Pocket Monsters (2023). It's cute that anyone even assumes it would end in the near future
>>58984579this guy rolls up as your challenger in the champions league tournament. What do you do?
>>58988193>Weavile use Ice Shard
>>58987814Wow, just like Journeys was only dub only
>>58988213>Rayquaza, fly into the stratosphere>Now, use Dragon Ascent.
>>58987814The next Gen 10 series will be called Pocket Monster (2027) with a new cast
>>58984579why does Fug always get the humiliation ritual
>>58988315Because Hoenn deserves It? The only regions worse are Galar and Paldea.
>>58984579They're trying so hard to make roy look cool and likeable lmao
>>58988809..and they always failed.
>>58984832Ash never caught a shiny legendary, he's already beat.
>>58984579This shit make me seethed Legendaries are supposed to be GodsWhy a child can be catched them with regular mons?
>>58988877>>58984832>>58985114>respect legendaries>Tobais with his Darkrai and Latios>Goh and his SuicuneWhat fucking respect?
>>58984579How the fuck is Roy not a Gary Stu for this shit? How is this okay?
>>58988800not the bait post
>>58989502>How the fuck is Roy not a Gary Stu for this shit? Because you clearly see how he worked towards this goal.> How is this okay?Because its the conclusion of a story arc that we've seen develop. I know its a very complex and maybe disturbing idea but most media is actually like this.
>>58988877A child catching legendaries with regular mons has been a feature of Pokemon since the first gameMaybe time to get over it?
>>58988315Because it's a shillmon.
>>58988315Because aura, hype or whatever its called and we need something to save this flop
>>58984579Its wish fulfilment the anime anon. His whole team are gonna be shiny god-tier legendaries and megas in no time.
>>58984832>Ash has a mega Lucario>Roy gets a SHINY mega lucario>Ash briefly commandeered a shiny rayquaza in the hoopa movie>Roy CATCHES a shiny rayquazaAshsisters our tacobro lost...
>>58989639Yeah, its not like Roy catching Rayquaza was set up about 3 years ago.
>>58989691>3 years agofucking hell it's really been three years already
>>58985943Serebii has a thread about the episode that's full of both bitching about it and Roy fanboys jerking off about it.
>>58984579>it's fugover
>>58984579>This will surely make people watch our anime
I don't care but that pink boy looks fucking gay and lame
>>58984579Havn't kept up but that boy is really Ash's son?
>>58990432'fraid so
>>58984579The anime is so cringe these daysIt feels like a deviantart fanficIt was better when it was a more mysterious and realistic world with legendaries that no one can catch and that arent shiny
>>58984652And Pokemon shrink down too, right? Idiot.
how the hell do you comfortably care for and consistently summon a massive dragon for battle? You'e basically unstoppable.rTheres zero emotion in this scene as well, for what should be a momentous occasion.
>>58991120>pokémon shrink themselves down
>>58984597As it should be. If you're using ultra balls you're a shitter.Every mon, including legendaries, in regular red balls or you didn't beat the game.
>>58984579Loving every laugh watching the zoomers who wanted Ashnime to end cry about how shitty the new anime is
Rayquaza is supposed to be a unique mythological pokemon protecting the earth from meteoritesThere shouldn't be a shiny one and it shouldn't get caught by a random ass 10 years old negro sjw
this thread tells me that no one here watched the damn show
>>58991717/vp/ always just love to shit on the anime without watching it
>>58991751Watching it just to shit on it is just a waste of time for the same result.
They ran outta ideas after 30 years
>>58991751Doesn't watch the Likonime (Roynime?), doesn't play the games... what does /vp/ do?
>>58992509Complain and masturbate to the porn
>>58992509I only complain about nuMon because it's nore fun than actual playing itI don't expect it to ever get better so I just make the most of the shit we get
>>58992509/vp/ is full of mentally ill third world zoomers, you can guess what they do
>>58992629/thread
>>58984579I don't get why this is such a controversy
>>58992795main character gets a shiny free legendary with no build upimagine if the first pokemon movie ended with ash catching mewtwo but its shiny
>>58992859>no build upyou REALLY did not watch this show did you?
>>58992859>no build up>129 episodes
this is the exact same audience who seethed that Ash didn't keep the Buzzwole he was tasked to return to its home dimension btw
>>58991717Ash isn't there so ashfags are literally unable to watch it. Which is why its obvious where the "criticism" comes from.>>58992859Even if that were true why do you suddenly care about build up and payoff?
>>58992859i agree with this, and he caught it with a normal pokeball when in the past most legendaries were treated somewhat with respect.(That one episode with Goh)
>>58993569>I agree the literal main goal of Roy wasn't the one he's been working towards 3 years
>>58991120>And Pokemon shrink down tooYes. It has always been canon retard
>>58984579>>58984597We all did the exact same thing last year when the event was running. Don't fucking act like it's impossible in the animeverse.
>>58985901>Total Arven Erasure
>>58993585>>58985495+timeskip+ hes brown
>>58993647That's just the typical ashfag fanfic to make up flaws. No one who watched a second of Horizon would think Ult deserved it more. He was still retarded monkey on his literal previous fight, while Roy has been steadily improving since the beggining. Not to mention Ult giving up his retarded "dream" was arguably his biggest development so far.
Every time lmao, is this what they call rent free? I hear the secret evil Ashfags are behind the Iran stuff too
>>58993827Let's bite, what motivation do people like >>58985495have to make up issues on a show he didn't watch?
>>58993812>gives a good criticism>'TYPICAL' ashfag fanficok pal, whatever you say>>58993841anon we need to watch all the seasons up until now to get the underlying context. did you know? during the timeskip he was training his ass off and he got his fucking MEGA. he trained for that you fucking retard, you ashfag
>>58984579Kind of lame but whatever, it's for kids I guess
>>58994033>gives a good criticismThat's outright not good criticism as it reflects a full lack of understanding of the events on the show. >anon we need to watch all the seasons up until now to get the underlying context.It wasn't arcane knowledge, it just required being able to watch something without ash in it. Even watching a few episodes here and there would have clued you in, but you can't even do that.
>>58984579Why Rayquaza instead of any other legendary? This is so boring
>>58992859If Goh was in this series he would have caught it with no build up.
>>58989216>oh fug is that Swampert
>>58992795The anime is shit so people are nitpicking
>>58993634The anime takes place after the events of the games and Arven can't contribute anything to the gang in his post-game status.Penny is a hacker so she can help out with technological stuffNemona is a strong trainer so she can help battle the bad guysArven is...just a guy
>>58996708>The anime takes place after the eventsYou made that one up
>>58996708>anime takes place after the events of the gamesWas that officially stated? Because if not that's just headcanon and you faggots should stop saying that
>>58984579DELETE THIS!!!!
>>58988877This. No one should EVER be catching legendaries in the anime EVER
>>58989187>implying anyone liked those
>>58996790That's not my point. The point is that anime have never respected Legendaries in any shape or form. If that was the case, no one should be able to own them. But here's the thing, people had them since Gen 3. At this point, why complain about it now?
>>58996954Are you being obtuse on purpose? There's a difference between those and cover main legendaries like Rayquaza
Would've been funnier if Dot was the one to catch it.
>>58988877Legendaries arent "Gods" theyre just very powerful species (of which there are multiple) with specific roles in their local ecosystems in the anime world. That rayquaza is just one of multiple of its species as they call it the "Black Rayquaza" implying that they know that rayquaza is supposed to be green and that its unique color requires calling out.
>>58996733>>58996729Yeah>Penny is working for the academy>Briar mentions having met a Terapagos before>Kieran has his champion design
>>58997091So nothing real then
>>58997119more like, absolute, irrefutable evidence
I call him fug so much that my kids only know him as fug. They were playing scatvomit the other day and yelled about the guy using fug in a sceptile tera raid being useless.
>>58987603Roy isn’t going anywhere anon.
>>58997020https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Lugia_(Silver%27s_parent)This is from the original anime series where Lugia was capture by Team Rocket. It didn't even freed itself. It was only release due to trainers fighting each other and they let her go by accident.
>>58997085
>>58984579man no one gives a single fuck about this anime lol
>>58984579no amount of fanfic tier powerwank in the world is going to help him replace ash
>>58984832Satoshi doesn't even own a legendary. the closest he got to owning on was Meloetta, but that's because she keeps following him.
>>58997413>her
>>58984579Why black fug looks like its done with life? It's literally making a "it's over" face.
>>58997607Defeated by a literal kid's Fire-type shitmon
>>58997591Does the Latias that wants to rape Ash count?>>58997612So it's a humiliation ritual for him?
>>58984579>>58989690Roy casually mogging all of trAsh's experiences in just one series
>>58997594Yes her. This was the episode of the baby Lugia.
>>58984579>Every MC in-game gets to do it>NOOOOOOOOOO THIS MC CAN'T, HE JUST CAN'T OK?
Now you racists faggots get to know how normal people feel about Goh
>>58998379>Pokemon anime watchers>Normal people
>>58998379>normal people
>>58996172what is this from?
>>58985068Apparently the anime is ending next month..
>>58998379>xhe calls them normal people
>>58998770nope
>>58998770Some "leaker" claimed that half a year ago.Two weeks ago the then "leaked" that plans had changed and the show had been extended a year due to "production difficulties with the gen 10 anime", obviously thinking gen 10 was coming in later 2026.Expect another "leak" about how plans have totally changed again any day now.
>>58998770>>58999526Just say Moot, he's the only faggot "leaker" that gives a shit about Horizons and by principle you shouldn't trust that bald faggot
>>58998379But Goh was also a negro
>>58999592I don't respect these retards enough to remember their names or treat them as individuals, they're all one giant irrelevant blob of lies.
>>58999592>using the name Moot on 4chan to refer to some retarded Twitterfuck attention whore and not Mootykins
>>58999669Too long faggot
>>58984579>Black Rayquaza for the black kidIsn't that kinda racist
>>58987064I would argue as far back as DP, the writers (or one dude rather) dumped on something decent at the end with mr. Darkrai, and Latios.
>>59000736DP was really where it went downhill, this is coming from someone who binge watched it.

>>58984579Frankly if you need your protagonist to have a shiny Rayquaza and shiny Mega Lucario I have to just assume your protagonist is bad.
>>58984579Ash caught Mewtwo and Lugia, why is this such a big deal?
>>58984579>Well, it beats dealing with fucking groudon and kyogre and their bullshit
