Moebending is the art of bending the moe within one's body. It is a highly dangerous technique; if one's own moe is impure and therefore bendable, the practitioner's reputation will be consequently destroyed.
EDIT:
In other news, does anyone remember this?
So do I take some moe character and bend them in half? Sounds weird.
God those Fearows were IMPOSSIBLE to capture.

What most of these from?
We should not speak such dangerous bending art.

So, a Water/Fire pistol shrimp that can barbie itself?
wait
On an unrelated note, just in case it ends up being a thing, I tried making a concept for Mega Scizor. There has to be one. There just has to be.
Like I said in the leaks thread (yes i don't care about spoilers, big whoop, want to fight about it?), I tried playing up the fire ant / mantis characteristics. Fire ant gives it candy red spikes errywhere, mantis elongated the hell out of the features, notably the claws. The wings can't move other than mild rotations, but Mega Scizor relies on its incredibly high speed to pick up air currents with them for both gliding and making deadly precise, acrobatic attacks. The delicate membranes of the wing also allow it to detect Bug-type Pokemon well beyond eyesight and earshot and hunt them down for duels. The bright red patterns are meant to intimidate weaker Pokemon and aggravate rivals, such as Scyther.

Oak, you piece of shit.
Wow, I actually knew someone who used his Master Ball on a Fearow. I wonder if he read the guide.

And now I get one more Pokémon spoiled for me. Some people just like to be walking spoilers.
I'm not even sure what to think about it at this point.

Of course it is. Remember someone said that Sylveon eyes reflect no soul? You got your answer.

Huh? Mega Scizor isn't confirmed. I just doodled a what-if and likewise posted it in the leak thread to pass the time between new news. I didn't mean I literally didn't care about spoiling you guys.

I'm referring to something else.
Nintendo may or may not be making Pokémon Hanafuda cards: [http://www.pokemon-hanafuda.com/] (via Kotaku)
The use of such old art makes this look fishy, and Pockemon is spelled wrong (lol). Also, no Pokémon technically has official kanji for its name. But cool if true.

Watched Pokemon: The Origin today. That was very good, and much more faithful than I expected. Made me even more hyped for X/Y. It was hurt a bit by only being an hour and a half, would have probably worked better as a full series.
Now, can I please have ones for the sequels?

Word of warning! If you're a Destructoid reader that doesn't want to be spoiled, whitelist them. They not only spoiled a Kalos Pokémon, but also the starter final evos. You don't know how annoyed I am at this.
You mean blacklist.
And just looked at the main site, there is a Slowpoke image now with the starter final forms in the article. Were they stupid and put the actual final forms as the
Wait what.

They still have a leaked image of a certain unannounced Kalos Pokémon up. They need to take that down if they're not allowed to mention it.

You can't just LEAVE the internet.
And the Super Double Train is a pain. Feels like I'm always one Pokemon short of adequate coverage.

Oops, still have my mind on fifth gen. And yes, the evos were the thumbnail. You'd think they'd be smart enough to put Slowpoke up in the first place.
My god wow. At least it wasn't a shot that showed them very clearly.
It picks up considerably about halfway through.
When you get the lucky egg after gym 5 there'll be zero grinding as long as you can shuffle the egg between pokemon efficiently. Was the first time I raised a team of 6 in a pokemon game.
Tip: Pick up a Magnemite. Great against most of the Gyms and can be fully evolved almost immediately after gym 5.
Everything I've seen from BW2 makes it seem like XY-Lite...
I want it so bad.... BW goes from snore bore to exciting and back again... No consistancy with me.
A week before Brawl came out, the full roster was leaked. At the time I didn't care for spoilers and read up everything about the game... but now I wished I haven't done that. It was so much more fun not being spoiled on the full roster. I'm going to avoid as much as possible when Smash Bros 4 leaks whenever it's close to release. (I swear, this game better have a world wide release...)
Sounds good. I already caught a Psyduck and since Magnemite do contribute a lot I might as well get it. Really love seeing so many original pokemons from the get go.
I think the increased pokemon variety and drastically different early game made it play much better than its predecessors. As much as I rag on B2W2 for its weird design decisions (no breeding or version mascot until the post game, hidden grottos) it did have a lot of genuinely good ideas, and it heartens me that they seem to have followed through with the best ones for a mainline title.
I thought you meant that smash leaks were imminent.
I apologize since that was poorly worded.
I don't expect any Smash Bros leaks anytime soon.
X and Y's regional pokedex will have several hundred older pokemon available, they show up immediately and there's a very steady flow of them throughout the game.
Nope. The only way to get pokemon with hidden abilities was through the dreamworld. (Let that RIP in pieces, by the way.)
whaaaaaaaaat the fuck am I reading :lol

Funny how it made female DW Pokémon more valuable than their male counterparts. Still, finding myself a female Vulpix and Poliwag made me really happy.
I can't stay away from this thread, too much hype. This is gonna bite me in the ass, but.ll w/e.
Is it had that I haven't used the dream world a single time? Am I missing out on anything if I don't care about ability/Iv breeding?

I am not even interested in the Pokemon friendship system. I don't think poking at the touch screen is all that compelling.
Oak would never lie. He's the genius of Indigo!

Not at all.
All the towns were named after colors. Indigo has royal connotations. It's that simple.

Remember how all the town names in Kanto are colors/color references?

I would also like to know. Where did these obvious trolls come from?

They're probably from the 1998 Prima guide for Pokémon Red and Blue. Is there anyone here with the guide to confirm this?
Ohhhhhhhh....mind blown....
I'm guessing Pallet Town is a play on the word 'palette'?
But I'm not Indigo!
