Well, this was nice to wake up to.

Oh, they have some sort of energy tube thing going, interesting.

Well, Black Kyurem has those krezy electrical-coil things and White Kyurem has flaming tubes of fire shooting out. So, yes, it looks fucking badass. What's more annoying is the relative lack of other information.
Also: I met Cynthia in Undella last night. She'll be fun to fight.

Retail WiiWare title who's only redeeming quality for me has been removed, unless I want to buy two copies. ie; local co-op requires multiple carts. You will experience all the game has to offer in the first hour, and it's repetitive button mashing. The worlds are uninspired, and areas are set up in a row, and you just go A-B-C to beat them.
Incredibly lazy, ugly. I wouldn't buy the game for ten dollars. Maybe five dollars for the Club Nintendo points. Maybe.

Boxarts prove the blue and red in the logos is lightning and fire and not ruby and sapphire (which anyone with a brain could have figured out anyways...)

Buy Rayman Origins instead.

People were seriously thinking the colours meant Hoenn? Haha, that's cute. Hopefully no-one on GAF was guilty of such silliness.

I should be here more often, it's unfair to have you fight the good fight against nonsense on your own :lol
I helped!
Play something like the Pokemon Ranger games, or even Mystery Dungeon games if you like dungeon crawling. Ranger games are pretty high quality though.

Yeah, Ranger is surprisingly neat. I mean, they're not near the level of actual Pokemon, but they're still pretty playable and they'll definitely scratch that itch. Oh, and they look great too- Ambrella showing GF what's up in the graphics department.

Pff, Hoenn.
It's gonna be a brand new region; the confirmation of a brand new story confirms it to me.

Just a side note - Ambrella didn't make the Ranger games. That was Creatures + HAL. Ambrella made, well...
Also, it's alright to hope for more
I'm still holding out for Hoenn references, heh.Also also, I wonder what's on that last page, since boxart was on 99, and Keldeo was 101. Two more days or something, if nothing else is coming today.

Oh, OK, I forgot- I suppose HAL involvement explains why it was a decent game. I always thought Ranger was 'that one time Ambrella got their shit together'. :lol

Why can Geodude fly?
It can?

Hey guys, wouldn't it be neat if we could have a Pokémon thread on the gaming side which wasn't immediately shat all over with generation wars?
Crazy, I know.

Well it can't use the attack, but it floats around.

It doesn't know Fly or Magnet Rise nor does it have the ability Levitate. According to the games it just sits on the ground.

If Geodude had an Air Balloon in the anime to help him float around that'd be fantastic.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Truth.
Ranger 2, imo, is the highlight of the series, arguably the best localization and plot of any Pokemon game.

Way I see it, everyone has their favorites, and they must be repped! Can't say that's not in the spirit of Pokemon.

Its ok like the first time around, but after you're here for years and you see every single pokemon thread devolve into bullshit about "being a real fan despite having not played it for 8 years" and how "pokemon look like digimon now" and "how all of the original 151 were amazing and should be the only pokemon" and that sprites are "lazy and cheap" and ....
it gets really old and annoying.

I agree with you totally, although in my personal opinion Guardian Signs had better plot twists and villains.

Oh that's what "generation wars" refers to? Oh yeah, it's a complete cancer. It's pretty ridiculous how many people are deadset into thinking new Pokemon suck despite the series making improvements or adjustments every generation gameplay-wise and design-wise.

It's not generation wars, it's Lugia vs Ho-oh debate
That's not a fight.
That's a massacre.
Lugia 4 lyfe
Ho-Oh was crap, but then it got Brave Bird. dayum

Lugia and Ho-oh suck. Articuno deserves more respect.
That's the truth.

Basically.
Lugia's too closely associated to THIS to not be one of my favourite legendaries. Probably my favourite, depending how I feel.

I WILL NOT HAVE IT SIR.
I'm good. I can recognise that my burning love for the movies isn't shared by everyone.
I can ignore people slagging off the Victini or Giratina movies.
Hell, I can grit my teeth and bear people criticising the Celebi or Lucario movies.
But you never. EVER. Slag off the Lugia movie.
EVER.
You might hurt my feelings.
