BW2 and ORAS both have more to do than that- I'd recommend finishing the N side quest in BW2, and ORAS has an absolute pile of Legendaries to go after in the post game.
Whoa, the only game I haven't played has the coolest end game stuff. I really need to play B2W2. That sounds so awesome.
Actually the areas before Castelia from B/W are closed off until post-game as well.
The most ridiculous picture I saw was someone stuck outside the Viridian City Gym thinking that it was Brock's Gym.
No idea what the fuck was going on there.

Bleh, oh well. Anyways GAF should I got X/Y before diving into OR/AS? I wasn't ever interested in X/Y beyond "oh Mewtwo gets a mega," however, OR/AS I really wanted at release (didn't have a 3DS back then) due to nostalgia but I heard OR/AS borrow some story beats from X/Y, will I get confused if dive into OR/AS first?
Nah, you'll be fine.
All you need to know is that Kalos is where mega evolution originated.
Pre-ordered Pokémon Sun and Moon, remembered that Pokkén is out in 2 weeks, planned a new team for Pokémon Soul Silver and Pokémon X which has me excited and then to top it off I rewatched the trailer for Pokémon Sun and Moon which got me hyped up.
Then my Zelda side is like "hey man erm Twilight Princess is releasing this week." but my Pokémon side is just drowning it out.
Actually you will be fine with OR/AS as the games acts like it predated the event of Pokémon X and Y.
Mega Rayquaza is like "nope I did it first and that Lucario bitch like totally copied me and not even in a good way as he needs a mega stone to go mega whereas I don't because I am a god...kinda just don't tell the folk of Hoenn as I have a good thing going on here."

Hideous isn't it? *shudders

People shitting on Chesnaught are heartless people
That's not the way the game portrays it.
The only final form grass starter worse than Chesnaught is Meganium. At least it's better than Greninja and Delphox though.
I kind of thought it seemed to be in the same world as XY. They reference AZ planting the tree outside the cave of origin (could be different world AZ I guess though).
I love Chespin and like Chesnaught a lot. Quilladin though? *shudders*
I saw it as an AU where mega evolution originated in Hoenn instead of Kalos separate from the rest of the series. Everyone that exists in the OG universe exists in the new one one way or another.
Why am I wasting time thinking about a fucking Pokemon timeline?

Greninja is fantastic.
Chespin is boring. What IS it?

So what's going on in the anime?
Started a new job recently and last I saw Was the fourth episode of Pokémon XYZ which I don't remember.

This is the only good thing Chespin gave us:
It's the spiky nut Pokémon of course.
I think that Clemont's Chespin in the anime has made me like it far more than I would have normally.

A platypus with a leaf hat?
Chespin is horrible!
These two are adorable.

Look at it!
It looks like a volleyball that grew limbs.
Gen 6 has the worst final form starters and worst Eevee evolution in the series IMO.
It seems we have polar opposite taste when it comes to Pokemon haha. Let me guess, you hate the Vanillite line?

I love all the gen VI starters' first and third forms.
I think all of the 2nd forms are godawful though.

Are you telling me you don't like looking at this?
Okay it looks cute there. Still can't stand the final evo though. Such a horrible color scheme.

Decided to start Black. I beat the first gym so far. I expected to fight all three of the waiters, but I guess you only fight one and it's determined by your starter.
Here's my team so far.
I wanted panpour over pansear, but didn't know that I would be getting a free monkey before I started, otherwise I would have picked tepig.

Whoa whoa whoa
Greninja is gross. Froakie and Frogadier are pretty cool though.
Gen 6 has the worst starters (even if Fennekin is the best first form starter) in the series IMO. I don't like a single final form.

You gotta be crazy. I see disgust at the helm here a lot on these forums, but I don't get the context of how it's used majority of them time. How does gross apply to Greninja to you?
I thought the designs were getting worse for the longest and still sort of do, but when I saw Greninja I couldn't hate on that shit. That shit is fly as a motherfucker.

The tongue scarf mostly. If it was a scarf of foam like Frogadier has I think I would like Greninja.

yeah same if still had the bubble scarf i would like it but the tongue

I see the criticism, but I still don't see the line of thinking for the word choice. Why does it inhibit emotion of disgust rather just being critical of a design choice?
Because I look at it and see a creature with a long sticky tongue so big it has to wrap it around its neck because it won't fit in its mouth. That is disgusting to me. If Greninja was less colorful I could totally see it as an enemy in a horror game.
