I'm pretty sure there is a term, I just forgot it.

I actually LOVE Platinum, I'm tempted to say it's the, imo, high-point of the 2D games. I didn't much like HGSS, mainly because it got too grindy without the Vs. Seeker.

 

[qq more]

Platinum is actually my 2nd favorite Pokemon game. I don't know why, maybe I've played it when I was in the perfect mood for Pokemon.

Kalostooge in the making

I demand explanations.

Platinum > HGSS

I didn't much like HGSS, mainly because it got too grindy without the Vs. Seeker.

I wish they had fixed some problems of GSC in the remakes, like some of the Johto Pokémon being extremely rare in their own region and others only appearing in Kanto -__-

 

[Boss Doggie]

Also I realized that Tyrunt is a spoiled brat...


...how do Pokemon become spoiled brats in the wild?!

Maybe the fact that it basically rendered Diamond and Pearl obsolete doesn't hurt, too.

Their parents shower them with gifts and praise for doing nothing, like any other spoiled brat.

I loved HGSS, but for some reason I never finished Kanto. I think at that time I got burned out from playing so much Pokemon in a short period of time. I'm one of those rare people who put less than 100 hours into each game.

Maybe the fact that it basically rendered Diamond and Pearl obsolete doesn't hurt, too.

Weird thing is that I've never actually finished D/P.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Yeah I really want to see what Tyrunt will evolve into. He's really the only new Pokémon I like, though I really haven't been paying much attention.

Diamond and Pearl did that to themselves.

Rampardos.

 

[Qurupeke]

So, I can't be the only one that loved the Underground in D/P right? I remember playing it a lot with some friends. Simple but fun, with the traps, the orbs etc.

Shame about the lag.

Fire localization team plz

 

[blamite]

Anyone here have any idea which one of these might be the best/most legit to buy? 1 2 3

Well, 2 and 3 are both Banpresto products, so I would suggest one of those. Out of those 2, pick whichever you like more. I think 2 looks a bit better, and is a bit bigger, so I would choose that.

I don't see the problem here, the only other name I can think of that would work is "Puppy Dog Eyes"

Pretty much the translation of the Japanese name. Not the localisation team's fault.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Yeah even in Japanese name it's Baby Doll Eyes.

we need moar Pokemon King pls

 

[ffdgh]

Curse you sca...luxray!

 

[Cute Dragon Here]

I fully expect the localised name to be significantly less boring and stilted.

(Something I love about Nintendo of America.)

The localized name of what?

 

[CommandThrower]

Who all is going to pay for Pokemon Bank? I know I will.

Day one from me as well. I need my staple trio of Nidoking, Machamp and Rhyperior; all freshly hatched of course and ready to take the journey into Kalos.


Of course, invariably, we probably won't actually be able to access the Poke Transporter until after you get the national dex. Oh well, at least I'll have them.

You two are alright in my book.

I'll kill you last

No prizes for guessing my favorite pokemon game. Favorite legendary pokemon got a good new form,Both previous version mascots available, Gallade and nearly all of my Issues with DP were addressed.(Speed, pokemon variety, endgame level gap, lack of full frontier facility.)

It was the game so nice that I bought it twice. (JPN and NTSC versions)

I still have my JPN plat here somewhere, one of the best Pokemon game IMO

 

[Tanner1495]

Today seems like the perfect day to be too sick for classes, I didn't even know there was an announcement today.

 

[.JayZii]

Hmm, Baby-Doll Eyes. Puppy-Dog Eyes is a more commonly used expression in English, I think, and makes more sense.

 

[zroid]

Puppy Dog eyes would exclude non-dog Pokémon from learning it, though. If the point of the move is to just overwhelm its victim with cute innocence, then it would fit any cute Pokémon too. Not that "Baby-Doll" is a good name -- just a less exclusionary one than "Puppy Dog"

Having only a 5% of finding Houndour in a small patch of grass just east of Celadon and Sneasel only being available in Mt. Silver while having an area called ICE FUCKING PATH in it's native region is some of the biggest bullshit GameFreak's ever pulled.

I like moves whose names end up not quite fitting the Pokémon involved. :3

Platinum still has speed issues, though, even more when you compare it to Gen V games. But still, that Battle Frontier was so good (but not as good as the Emerald one) and the lack of one in Gen V certainly made me enjoy the games a bit less. I am totally hoping there is a new and improved BF in Pokémon X and Y. :3

It's not nearly as fast it should have been, but it was definitely a step up from "Imma bake a cake while doing this." for DP.

You forgot the part where the Houndour's at a low level so you have to spend who knows how long raising it up to be at your party's level.

 

[ffdgh]

Gotta love bw's exp system and free lucky eggs <3

 

[Dr. Buni]

Yeah, I hope we get one or two easy Lucky Eggs in XY. Audino MUST be in these games as well.

 

[Zeroth]

Here is something while we wait

probably joking about how people hate pokemon's new designs

Reposting here because.

 

[PreyingShark]

GIMP is annoying.

GIMP is annoying.

I tried making animated PNG files in it before


NEVER AGAIN

 

[DaBoss]

Can you still buy Photoshop stand-alone or is it now a service sort of thing?

 

[ffdgh]

Paint.net is what I use. It's not the best but I love it <3

 

[PreyingShark]

I'll try Paint.net. I forgot about it but remember liking it.

 

[ArchedThunder]

Same here, been using it for years. The tools are much more user friendly than GIMP.

 

[jakefromstatefarm]

AND only being available at night. Ugh, that was such a punch in the nuts to find out as an 8 year old that Houndoom, despite a dope design and badass typing wasn't a viable option. It's part of the reason why I don't want another multi-region game.

Yep, Paint.net works for me.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I wonder what's the probability of winning something in that sweepstakes.

I'm new here. Just beat black 2 and i said this in another thread, but what the hell happened to the elite 4? I remember when i played emerald version they were hard as hell. but this game i only used one revive and like 3 super potions

Turn on hard mode and rematch them.
