I like the Vanillite line. They're not close to my favorites but I think they're okay. Klink line were the "artificial" Pokemon that stole my heart in Gen V. They're the best!

see here's the thing a lot of people miss with Chesnaught's design
he is wearing armor, the lines on his body reflect that, his lack of brown fur reflects that, he is wearing a full suit of armor
if you want to see Chesnaught's muscles, you have to strip him
But Tepig is adorable..

Gen 5 starters are amazing and way better than the Gen 6 ones. Fight me, bro.
I can agree with this. The Tepig line drags the Gen 5 starters down.
I really feel like its in-game model makes it look worse than it actually is. It looks fine most of the time.
Although most people seem to like Fennekin and Braixen, so at least that line isn't entirely useless.
Samurotts design has been ruined by him standing on all four limbs.
He needs to be standing on two.
Just look how different it'll look like:
compared to
It's like two different Pokémon.
It ends with the parade and you battling that AZ guy. The "It's been 3,000 years" moment where he reunites with his Floette has since become a meme, lol.
Oh. Right. No wonder I forgot it.
I couldn't stand Fennekin since the reveal. She's just the kind of creature I would do evil mojo on.
My favorite starter trio after Gen I and probably II, gotta be V. I loved Snivy, and still do. That sneaky slick little ninja!
And that Tepig is oh so adorable. And Oshawott grew on me over the past two years, he's just a cool badass.

Why are people expecting SM news in the direct lol
Snivy's line is also my fave. It's kinda weird because I usually am not the biggest fan of the grass starters but they've been my fave for the past two gens
Also here's hoping we get something of Sun/Moon in the Direct tomorrow (although I doubt it will happen).
On mobile so I can't quote
@doggie: People were disappointed on the info we got starting out for Gen VI compared to this new Gen, which is why they're looking for SOMETHING to satisfy them

I love the Gen VI starters. Best in a while. IMO Greninja is just one of the coolest Pokemon ever.
Anyway, it just occurred to me that Detective Pikachu came out in Japan about a month ago and I haven't heard anything in the way of impressions. How was it received in Japan? Anyone know? I did a google search but there's been like 0 articles about it after the trailer. I would have expected someone capable of giving impressions to have played it already...
And I'm not getting hyped for Sun/Moon info tomorrow. Really don't see them talking about anything Pokemon beyond Pokken.

Yeah but this seems to focus on games up to summer.
It's quite well received. It's consistently in 3DS charts (Currently #6 on the eShop).
I wrote this for NintendoLife: http://www.nintendolife.com/news/20...clues_in_detective_pikachu_birth_of_a_new_duo
I'm going to cry if another F2P Pokémon game is announced
Joe saving the day again, thanks! Can't believe Google didn't lead me to this article.
And that's great to hear! Crossing my fingers we'll hear about a localization tomorrow. Idris Elba as Pikachu would be a good "final announcement" for the Direct IMO >_>

On the topic of Chestnaught, I feel his shiny form is way better than his normal color, the light sandy color just doesn't work. And Oshawott and Dewott are fantastic while Samurott is half baked. His back legs ruin it for me. Being a quadruped is fine, but those legs look silly, and you never see much of his swords. HECK, I didn't even know they were swords for a while after he was usable.
Good god no.
After the PWT was brought up a few pages back in thread, I got a bit nostalgic and decided to load up an old Black 2 file to try it out again, which turned out to be a terrible mistake, because I got wrecked in the first round by fucking Misty. Triple battles are honestly a death sentence at times
I don't know what it is about the World Leaders Tournament, but it always seems to pit me up against trainers who can completely destroy my team. Do you know that I've still been unable to beat Drayden in the PWT after all these years? His Haxourus annihilates me every time. Whenever I participate in a Unova Leaders or World Leaders Tournament I always have to pray that he doesn't show up.

I'm not expecting Sun and Moon stuff tomorrow, but I certainly hope we get something.

A guy slowly develops an armor.
The problem with Chesnaught's evolution is that it's a bit harder to catch since it covers shit like ripening chestnuts and the concept of armoring. Lots of people think he only has a "back shield" when in fact he is a paladin wearing an armor, and said armor is inspired by layers of the nut
Notice how Chespin and Quilladin feature brown bodies? That's pretty much the "inside" of a chestnut. Hence why I always say jokingly that if people wanted a brown Chesnaught, they have to strip him since he is wearing an armor, much like how you need to remove the shell of a cnestnut to see the brown nut.
It's one of those Pokemon that's hard to grasp and harder to realize due to the more intricate and subtle takings on the design, but once you do, it suddenly sparkles interest. I personally like Chesnaught (my favorite grass starter) because it's the most unusual out of all the starters.

So what are the best 'current' games?
I never got Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire, how are they?
X&Y?
What did you guys think of HG and SS? I thought they were pretty great.
Am I forgetting something?

So basically they did it backwards? Instead of slowly evolving out of the shell it evolves back in?A guy slowly develops an armor.

The idea is that it is "ripening" its armor to develop a shell. But otherwise yeah.
But I'd argue it's not backward. It's only backward if you view it as though you are eating a chestnut. I mean, why would it be backwards for a nut to develop a shell

Is this a common sentiment?
GBA Ruby version is probably my most played game of all time. Would be kind of cool to jump back in.

Was it a bad remake? Or you simply like Kalos more than Hoenn?

Kalos was more interesting to me yea. Add in the character customization, a bunch of fun lil rivals that pop up here and there as well as a main rival.
The remakes just wasn't fun to me
