I know too much.

Today I discovered I'm a Rotom hipster.

"Pfft, nice Rotom-Wash. Check out my Rotom-Mow. Bet you've never fought one before you sheeple."

I really like Rotom-Mow. Grass-types + Will-o-wisp turn me on.

[Neonivek]

It sounds silly

But I'll probably get back into Pokémon when Snorlax gets a evolution or Megavolution.

Mowtom is pretty good, yo. I've seen it used pretty effectively. Leaf Storm hits hard.
Its downside is, y'know, its grass typing. Weak to poison, bug, ice. Only good thing is that Electric/Grass neutralises Grass's flying weakness, and the Levitate removes the Ground weakness Electric has.

So why didn't they make Wally the champion?  I mean I guess some people may have complained about it not being true to the origonal, but Wally so freaking deserved it.  I actually felt kinda bad beating the little tyke each time.  And the last time we fight he has so much determination and a kickass theme and he's right before the pokemon league surely this time he will win!  ...only to be sent home again.

I mean seriously, Wally was harder than any one of the Elite 4, excepting maybe sydney and that was probably because the only fighting type move I had was rock smash.  Zoroark ate the ghosts alive, Ninetails wrecked the ice types and clearly the thing Drake was saying every trainer needs that I wouldn't beat him without was my Vaporeon's ice beam.

Wally actually mixed it up forcing switches all over the place.  And actually KO'd 4 of my pokes.  Stephen only got 1.  You got there with a pokemon of your choice, with a good opening set of moves.  Wally got there with a bloody Ralts that as far as I could tell started out only knowing growl.  I have no idea how he even managed to level it once.  He deserved the championship, at least for a short time.

Pokemon is a game about crushing dreams.

Interestingly, there's a map in Dewford that looks uncannily like a flipped version of Serebii's PokeEarth

In other news, someone in my college has managed to get their hands on an Eon Ticket and its spreading around campus through the streetpass. \o/

Thought I'd finally give Random Doubles a whirl on Pokemon Showdown.  Very first Pokemon I'm given is Primal Groudon.  Who in the blue devil thought Primal Groudon in Random was a good idea?  It's not even funny in the sense of an Air Balloon Rotom-Fan or some of the other movesets; it's actually given an viciously effective move-set (Overheat/Lava Plume/Rock Polish/Stone Edge).  I felt rather sorry for my opponent, and he was given Rotom-Wash.  Feeling sorry for someone using R-W is...a rather novel thing, I think.

Ooh, that's lucky. ^_^

[umiman]

Like I said before, Primal Groudon is stronk. M-Lopunny is also stronk.

Also I think they just give these pokemon a list of moves and you randomly get whatever. The only Pokemon not in random battles is M-Rayquaza.

I think they also made it so Liepard can't get prankster + thunder wave + swagger.

I admit I don't know what is so good about Genesect.

Can someone explain it to me somewhat?

[umiman]

Good typing, great stats. Hard to kill while doing batloads of damage.

Ability is awesome (+1 to attack or special attack, depending on what the enemy is weak to? Yes please).

Excellent moveset. It can fight anything and equip any item. It can either be a physical attacker or special attacker or both. It even has extremespeed.

What's not to like?

Aka Offensive Scizor on Steroids and with more item and Move Variety, plus the option of Phys or Spec Attacks.
I agree: What's not to Like?
---I'd Answer that with it's Violet Coloration, It's just so odd for something like that.

[Urist Imiknorris]

That's what shinies are for.

[Nighthawk]

What I have always failed to understand about shinies is the way some of them look badass (black Charizard is the classic example) while some of them become LESS cool when their color scheme changes.

You have a 1 in 4000 chance of getting one, it ought to look epic.

I suppose which colors are cool is all a matter of opinion...  but how many people want a hot pink Crobat? Honestly.

*raises hand*
Not only did I want one the moment I learned of it, I was inspired by it to create an entire team of pink Pokemon.  It's probably one of the rather few shinies I've been seriously interested in. ^_^
