    Gotta love how with three of the "unused" you listed, two of them have been used: Obstagoon for Normal/Dark and Nihilego for Poison/Rock

    Or Arcanine getting Dragonbreath could just be that dogs breath just smell so foul.

    What other formats? As far as GameFreak go, the only other format there is is 3v3 singles. And when it comes to in-game, you could only use D-max in certain locations, unlike Z-moves or Mega Evolution, so you could not abuse the mechanic throughout the game.

    You guys have never played VGC where Dynamax is nearly universally loved and it shows. But this is to be expected on a site where single 6v6 battles are the norm. Its balance in VGC comes from, at least from what I can tell, is that most things tend to run some bulk on them and in a mode where...
  6. Rachel's Trade Resort (CLOSED for now) - Ribbon Masters, Shinies, Battle Ready and More!

    I would love to get a copy of that Regieleki, both for competitive and Dex completition. Whenever is fine and what do you want in exchange?

    To add on to this, one of the more prevalent criticisms of RS at the time was of the idea of the Regional Pokedex because it meant that not all Pokemon would be available in the game. Which as we all know is a criticism that has never resurfaced ever. And before you start going on about how all...

    Then maybe Suicune is simply meant to be more of a benevolent wind spirit, as gust translates to stir up wind, and tailwind is tailwind. A lot of the Pokedex entries give an impression of calm, and since it embodies the rain that put out the fire that engulfed brass tower.
  9. Pokémon Movepool Oddities & Explanations

    Suicune is associated with the North winds, as its mane is meant to represent the auroras and several Pokedex entries point out the northern feel. Which of course don't produce hurricanes, so this one I think is perfectly justified.

    I am guessing they are talking about spread moves
  11. Little things you like about Pokémon

    What I saw as being really noticeable downgrades are probably stuff that would be done late in development, like the Battle Facility or updating National Dex 'mons movesets and all of the VGC balancing (Yeah I know the first year of the gen doesn't include all of the mons but still), hence...
  12. Little things you like about Pokémon

    I think they did completely change things over to this format this late in the development cycle. It would completely explain and sort of back up Gamefreak's explanation of things of why things in Sword and Shield are the way they are. It would explain why a lot in this game feel like a bit of a...

    Well, they could just use the roster for the original Super Smash Bros for the first Super Smash Bros movie. And if you go the route that Marvel went, which was enough movies beforehand to introduce all of the Avengers, so you could jump right into the plot without intros, you could get it done...
  14. (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    I get what is being said about player characters, but I think that is never going to go away. As of right now, I can't create an avatar that looks like me, and I don't overly have a problem with that, as I know that a game won't be able to do that without a slider system that will take hours for...

    While I agree with the overall opinion, comparing the Game Corner to lootboxes is really harsh, as lootbox games are often built around the gambling aspect of lootboxes and are integral to one's progression in a game, whereas the Game Corner was completely optional and all of them had ways of...

    You mean like Gladion?
  17. (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    Special attackers enjoy having 0 attack IVs due to the move Foul Play using the defending pokemon's attack stat. It is situational but it still nice.

    Plus, multiple Z-moves will require the Rotom dex to be your friend, which we don't know how difficult that will be to make happen.
  19. SPOILERS! Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon News & Discussion

    Is it just me, or does it look a lot of that trailer takes place on a dark version of the Champion's room in the Pokemon League? If so, is the League up and running already, possibly, and does this mean we will have a BW style endgame?
