Keldeo and either Meloetta or new Kyurem forme. Bet on it.

It's not uncommon for event legendaries and new formes to be teased like this; I think Giratina's Origin forme and both of Shaymin's forms were teased in this way.

they were revealed on pokemon sunday... AFTER BW were announced, iirc.
Pokemon Sunday? Wasn't that CoroCoro? And how did their question marks first pop up?

I kinda remember their question marks being among figurines.. maybe I'm just confused.

It went, first Pokemon Sunday teased something, then it got fully revealed a few days later in CoroCoro, then they went over basically everything that was in CoroCoro on the next Pokemon Sunday.
 
Of course, if they were following the timetable for gen IV Pokemon reveals, they'd be revealing a gen VI Pokemon; Munchlax was revealed for the second AG movie.

There's close to no chance that's happening. Unfortunately, my body would be ready. :(

i need a new pokemon game. :/ platinum->hgss->bw each year was amazing.
If I'm correct in thinking that Nintendo are still very keen to push the 3DS as far as possible, I don't think you have long to wait.

Having 3 main line releases every 4 years would be great. Didn't it go similarly for RS->FRLG->Emerald? So good.

A message within the game's code reads "By the way: If you like this game, buy it or die." This message is occasionally activated by talking to the Seagallop ferryman in Vermilion City while playing an improperly-dumped ROM of the game. Several of the dumping groups who originally dumped the ROMs later confirmed that the message was not added by them.

"Due to the DS cartridges being black, Pokémon Black is technically the first Pokémon game since Emerald to have its cartridge match the color of the game."

bahahaha

Personally, I would really go for a community, especially if the rules for battlers are fine-grained enough (like restricting based on type, or by dex number, or by move). Could make for some interesting battles.
 
It could be a way to attract more of the simulator scene to the handheld games, aside from making the training easier. Having a way to set up locations with set rules in place, and having large caps on commmunity members instead of small ones, could really help. Also, with possible stat tracking from GBU, and some form of online community management, the possibility of inviting people to battles through the friends list, just using your Battle Box to make things go faster...

Like half of that stuff won't happen lol. But it would be nice.

Wiseblade. </3

Just when the family was back together. Anyone know why he was banned? His last posts were in the Blacespace/Timedog and "My thoughts on Xenoblade..." threads, but nothing that seemed bannable from what I saw...

No Barry either... tch. Edit- Although I'm pretty sure that Cheren is a girl...

I had the sudden urge earlier today to make a Pokemon fanfic.

Like, a good one. There's only like, two of those out there I think. So it's not exactly a crowded market. :p

GAF would you read it~~~~?
 
Pokemon doesn't really suit fanfic well, I guess. I've seen one or two decent ones (I remember a good one about a kid dying of a Beedrill sting or something a few years ago), but largely the format tends to attract some intensely creepy fanficers.

It was totally random.

As for the rest of you, fine! Maybe I'll just do an awful webcomic instead. >:/

Was still coming up with a lot of the concept.

What I had so far:

Basically a trainer from Sinnoh venturing to Kanto and encountering a revived Team Rocket. I was thinking I would eventually reveal that (omg potential spoilers maybe!)
Mewtwo was behind it all and was manipulating Giovanni and Blue through mind control.
Or something.

And the trainer only has one Pokemon but it's technically just a companion and he never really caught it, so like midway through the series one of the Rocket grunts just throws a Silph Co. Master Ball at it and of course catches it. That would make for a good arc, where the trainer has to sneak around without a Pokemon and deal with not having his partner for the first time since he was a baby. (The Pokemon would be baby form when he was a kid, then one stage further when the story begins.)

Oh and the Pokemon would be shiny, and would evolve to its final form after the climactic battle.

Then in a cliffhanger twist the trainer's mom is attack by Galactic or something and he has to rush back to Sinnoh for season 2.

* 100% subject to change or even for me to completely forget about ever doing it, like my BW Abridged idea.



This all sounds terrible but I could probably make it work. I don't take pride in much but I am happy with my writing style and haven't gotten many complaints about it. Even so, it's stagnating and I could use a good project like this to work on it and get critiques.
