Hope this isn't too off topic, I've been playing Monster Hunter Stories and it really scratches the Pokemon itch; if you want a more mature Pokemon (and not in le edgy creepypasta way) I very strongly recommend it. It's sillier and cuter than the main line game but still feels a lot more challenging and dark than mainline Pokemon. The combat style is standard JRPG style which is a bonus if you suck at the mainline MH games like me :)

Some of the gen 9 mons straight up use stock sounds in their cries. Crocalor, Wattrel and Kilowattrel use the same stock sounds as some Spore mouth parts.

Crocalor:

Spore's tapir/horse mouths:

The gaymers who lower the texture resolution to 144p to run games at a quadrillion FPS will be very pleased.

IIRC the Cetitan line is also guilty of this. I know that Cetoddle uses a stock cry that’s shared and pitched with Koraidon/Miraidon and that same stock sound effect is used in Banjo-Tooie’s soundtrack for ambience.
 
I’ve had no interest in ZA besides spiteful apprehension so I hadn’t actually seen what the plot was until I saw some joke video about the real villain being a taxi driver who wishes his business took over Kalos, and let me say I think I fucking hate it

Oh what’s that, you thought the Z-A in the title would be some cool thing about the legendaries? Nope fuck you it’s literally because you rank up through the alphabet in some dumb tournament. The fucking alphabet like we’re in kindergarten again, okay.

And the prize for the tourney is…. A wiiish! Hey remember that retarded fucking unexplained time travel/wish fulfillment plot point from SV that was shat all over with Teal Mask (ha ha loser kid wishing for friends, if you wish to better yourself you’re a toxic murderer like these dumb Pokemon according to this story that’s even more retarded than the story that was supposed to be a lie, accept being bullied forever… oh not you player-kun you’re so coool you can do everything and have all the praise). It’s dumb and childish and doesn’t make sense for a modern setting, at least if it was in the past like Arceus it could have been some superstition based on a legendary Pokemon that could turn out to be real in the end, but in a hyper-modern setting something like that would long have been observed and explained, or else dismissed as superstition. So I can only assume if this taxi driver won the tourney he’d be able to actually commission the government to replace all transportation with his taxis. But the retard pattern-seekers will drop their jaws and coooom because they did the thing that was in the other thing and that means it’s good even if it’s the most retarded shit humanly possible.

I want Ohmori beheaded and his remains pulped down to the atomic level. Disconnect his protons from his neutrons so he can never be reconstructed in even the slightest form and scatter him to the solar winds. Kill

somehow the thing that pisses me off the most is, if any of those leaks are even slightly right the story will be slightly similar to my XY remake story which would be really annoying if I ever released it because then retards would go “oh you got the idea from ZA!!” but no I had nothing to do with that retard shit get it away from me. At least if they really do fucking nothing with Xerneas and Yveltal I can have free reign with them.

Im a very casual fan, and I was just gifted a 3DS which I modded and now I'm playing Omega Ruby for the first time. I played up until sinnoh, then stopped. My first video game ever was Sapphire, and I remember panicking and wasting my master ball on an Absol because I thought it was a legendary pokemon after seeing the Jirachi Wishmaker movie. Any tips for someone who's getting back into it? Or silly stories from when you were a dumb kid

Necro-quoting, I know, but I also played up until Sinnoh and then basically stopped for a decade+ until I picked up X, AS and Sun secondhand. My advice for anyone getting back into the modern games after Gen 3 is to enjoy the extreme levels of generosity, ignore the jank and the 4chan board, and if you’re feeling nostalgic, come see how incredibly far the old gen romhacks have come- shit like Radical Red and Emerald Seaglass are worthy of being put on carts.

I don’t have too many dumb kid stories (I had the Prima guides helping me after all) but in my desperation for a good Psychic type in Gen 2 my dumb kid ass tried very hard to make Unown work, since I didn’t want to use Kadabra (couldn’t evolve it without link cable), Hypno (too ugly), Espeon (Umbreon was cooler), Girafarig (no thanks), or Lugia (cheating, boring, should’ve been a Water type).
 
With Black Bolt and White Flare's Japanese release coming up this week Illustrator Rares and Secret Illustrator Rares are beginning to leak out into the open.

Unfortunately it appears that God packs (where a pack will have 6 Illustrator Rares cards or higher) are making a return. The upside is that, thanks to the leaks confirming it on our end, Poke Ball holos and Master Ball holos won't be etched like Prismatic Evolutions were.

Oh, and one more thing.
I just love how the Archeops line goes from having amateurish art in the Archen IR to having beautiful art in the Archeops IR.
Archen.webpArcheops.webp
Oh, and the Archeops' Ability is a slight throwback to its NVI print: It lets you devolve one of opponent's Evolved Pokémon in play if it's in the Active Spot once per turn. Too bad it'll be impossible to play thanks to the annoying little shit-rat that is Budew.

I think Pokemon coliseum would basically remedy a lot of the critiques people throw at the series while simultaneously pushing people to actually become interested in VGC.

The battles aren't necessarily harder than the average core game, but the double format completely recontexualizes the way we are forced to engage with the mechanics.

We could also use this of course to diversified gym leaders and what they specialize in too.

Well, problem with that is that it was not made by GameFreak, and they will always be eternally asshurt that a random studio with absolutely no experience with the franchise could outdo them in their first outtake, twice in a row. Their punishment? Eternal stay at the mobile mines, RIP. Even if Battle Revolution was mediocre, they didn't deserve this.

The anime power-of-friendship BS added by the affection system was genuinely one of the worst ideas. I think I hate this more than the gamebreaking buffs.

This was always part of the franchise, tho. It's typical stuff you see in child friendly media. Affection should have just been merged with the outdated Friendship mechanic and be done with it.

Oh my god someone else finally fucking noticed this.

It baffles me how nobody has mentioned it, not once, before you. All the fucking dogs they introduced have these extremely generic barks as well. I can barely remember any cries past gen 5 and I only stopped playing around the middle of gen 7. Something really fucked up the way cries were designed in between gens 6 and 7, because I can still remember at least a few gen 6 cries, but I couldn't recall a single one past 7 if you put a gun to my head. I think the only exception might be Espathra, and that's just because it's so contrary to the design that it genuinely made me think the fabric ostrich was supposed to be a girly robot made out of chrome.

If you want to do anything more than basic edits, I'd recommend using the Emerald decomp. Getting it set up can be a hurdle, but it's way easier in the longrun when making changes because you're working with the game's code directly and don't need to fuck around with a hundred tools.

There is also an expansion engine that adds a lot of modern features: https://www.pokecommunity.com/threa...-pokemon_expansion-and-item_expansion.431486/

Yeah, just dont do a fucking vanilla++++ deluxe with specific QoL but the same map and story

That would actually be good when doing a practise hack, though I agree with Registration in that a serious hack would need to stand out above the many Vanilla+ hacks that fill the binary landscape by necessity.

I do not kno what is funnier: your extrem efforts in making Unown work or your eason wh you did not use Hypno.
Then again, the Pokémon games make beating the game with any Pokémon possible; what is funny is the great pains you took.
 
Went from the first tranny Cathy Fitzpatrick
To the golden Era of zarel, now back to some lgbt tranny called hecate being the lead engineer.

It wasnt all rainbow(pun) and sunshine back in the golden era, there was still some obscure and deep tranny drama like the Goddess Briyella debacle, but nothing like like this, being greeted with gayfaggotry right on on the landing screen, like.... young kids play in this site every daty, the only saving grace is that you can control the theme and background otherwise those troons would force faggotry imagery down on everyoens throat.

Huh, it's true, a ton of gen 5 Pokemon use stock sounds in their cries, Whirlipede's is really obvious.
Maybe the reason why it doesn't stand out as much is because before gen 6, the edits and the DS compression masked the sounds and made them less obvious (you can hardly tell Grotle's cry used a man's scream). But with the Switch, and to a lesser extent the 3DS, the stock sounds aren't as distorted so they're easier to notice.

Also, lol at that site tagging Palworld as a Pokemon game.

Played a bit of Emerald Rouge again. Reached elite four this time. The team i build was pretty fun (Dodrio with poison ord and facade, Charizard with dragon dance and fire Blitz, Herocross with choice band and close-combat, Metagross with assault vest).

The problem is im fighting the gen 5 gym leaders. with the other gen, you can figure who you fighting but with gen 5, there 13 gym leader you have to be ready for. thats insane!
 
I don't know if anyone watches the anime but I've been watching the Sun and Moon japanese dub (Not a fan of the english dub voices) after watching reviews for it. I know there's a lot of divided opinions about this anime, but I actually didn't think it was that bad. It had its moments but my god, why was the first season filled with filler before we got to an actual plot? Also, is it me or did Mallow/Mao get fucked over? The first season strongly implied that she was going to be the main female lead but then they did nothing with her and basically made Lillie the main girl while Lana and Mallow (especially her) got sidelined hard. I thought the episode where she finally meets her mom again was a sad but good episode, but there was no build up to Mallow's mom being dead. Overall, Sun and Moon isn't terrible imo, but I felt like it had potential to be an even better Pokemon series had it didn't have a lot of filler episodes, and some of the main characters actually got development that they desperately needed.
 
Is there any word on whether Pokemon Coliseum on Switch 2 will work with Pokemon Home? I'm not feeling the switch after the wokeness announcement, but I have nostalgia for those games and have been putting off replaying them because I'd have to re buy a GBA, a link cable and like six other games and systems to bring my Pokemon to the modern games
