What makes a fighter Power, Standard, Technique, or Speed? I'd imagine a Power type has high HP, but Chandelure has one of the lowest. And Suicune looked liked it would be a Technique type.

Power is strength, stronger hitting moves but not the fastest i would guess
Technique is ranged and yeah i don't know why Suicune is Technique
Speed is pretty self explanatory faster characters not the strongest hits, have to use there speed to land more hits
Standard is jack of all trade master of none,

I think Technique is just about learning curve, of which Gardevoir and Gengar seem to have the highest of just by looking at them in videos.

I want this chu to be snarky as fuck
TriggerShy

That makes sense I guess, but speaking learning curve, how does Machamp do anything against anyone? I mean even when it wins it seems like a major pain in the 3d space. I'm not even a fan of Machamp, but I feel so sorry for it.

he get's in, i know he has rock throw/strength as a projectile but he is very much about getting in your face, as for dealing with 3D space he does have a move that lets him close the distance and causes a plain shift

red nendoroid doesn't have pockets on his jacket
what ever that is, it's new art that's for sure but for what
edit: wait the 20th artwork of red has pockets on his jacket
Speaking of, has GF said when that "Champion" Red Nendroid will go up? The 20th anniversary site says it's available on the Pokemon Center, which it certainly isn't. I missed out on the original Red Nendroid, and I refuse to make that mistake again. GF needs more money and I need more pointless Pokemon merchandise that I'll never get any practical use out of!
Near end of February according to this http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/an-exclusive-nendoroid-worthy-of-a-champion/

It's for the artbook I reckon.
Do we know if EB Games will supply codes in Canada?Sorry for spamming this on the 3 Pokémon threads... XD but Mew Event has started...

The Japanese Pokken site also has some screens of the Wii U version that look a little bit better than the shit they've shown us before:
I don't believe they're bullshots because i don't see AA or the like, and they aren't what I would call "pretty". But they do look 720p instead of sub-HD like the first batch of screens did to me.
edit: wait the 20th artwork of red has pockets on his jacket
Well, it's based on his original attire from Gen 1/2. They changed him quite a bit for FRLG. Really cool to see a modern artwork of the original!
Kotobukiya produces collectables, and the original source says this is the "beginning of Pocket Monsters series figures, with a modern revival of the legendary trainer Red". Damn!

a Kotobukiya scaled figure of Red would be pretty amazing

...i dont know what this sentence is
PreyingShark

They're not bullshots.
The game is in HD.
It has some sub-HD effects.
There were some ugly screens provided earlier that looked kind of sub-HD though I can't find them right now.
I'm tired making good sentences is hard
Boss Doggie

Yeah the screenies that came out with Braixen and company. That's why I shrug when people judge the game graphics through that.
Boss Doggie

Oh the art is for the figure.
Me too! The store near me always runs out before I get off work. I'm assuming they get like none of them or give them out in bunches.

I would love a Mew as well. I'm really hoping that Canada gets the distribution but we don't always.
Got lucky at one of my local gamestops
Ooh I didn't know that you can get a Mew plush. I will get my Mew Code on Tuesday and maybe buy that Froakie plush that I had my eye on for awhile.

Depends on the store. I live near ten in London and some will give out multiple (up to a maximum of four) while others only give out one and still others hardly know what you are talking about and you have to push them to give out any at all.
But in my country they are distributed via Nintendo Zone, not physical cards.

In that case I believe it is one per 3DS.
