  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!

    But the cost is justified if there is a possibility that the game will look nicer, and that people will be more likely to purchase a 3D Pokemon game. Both of these have been proven true.



    How was the latter proven true? I'm pretty sure Colosseum and XD didn't outsell the main games.


    And for the former, remember: there is a possibility that the game will look worse.



    since hardware has improved considerably since then



    True. I was trying to think of a more modern example, but I was in a hurry so I wound up going with one of my favorite punching bags.


    Anyway, the point is that 3D is not inherently better than 2D.


    Also, bear in mind that Game Freak has made exactly one 3D game ever, and it looks terrible:



  • If that don't work, use more gun.

    ^Eh, doesn't look that bad to me.


    I hate the Battle Subway. Holy crap, the rubberbanding on the AI is insane!

    "I will grant you two wishes; one for each testicle."

    ^^ I don't think that is that bad.

  • @Battle Subway: It is a tradition of the Battle Tower/Facility. A shitty tradition though. Which is why I don't touch that crap at all.

  • Definitely not gay.

    Guys guys guys


    I just thought of an incredibly original and innovative discussion


    What if Pokemon were real

  • No rainbow star

    The Battle Tower actually made use of a fucking glitch to hit Wondertombs and Wondereyes. By putting Fire Fang on Crawdaunt


     


    Crawdaunt doesn't learn Fire Fang


     


    The game isn't even trying to hide its cheating at points (mind you that case requires you to cheat first but still...)


     


    ^ 8D FLYGON!

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    Wondertombs and Wondereyes



      


     

  • No rainbow star

    ^ Saying no at the idea of a Ghost/Dark type with Wonderguard, or at the names Wondertomb and Wondereye?

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    The names.


    Although that kind of hacking is sort of lame, too. But mostly just the names. 

  • No rainbow star

    Easier to say Wondertomb and Wondereye than "A Spiritomb or Sableye with Wonderguard"

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    Wondertomb:



    Wondereye:



    That is what I think of, respectively, when I hear those terms. 

  • Definitely not gay.

    ^ 8D FLYGON!



    >Flygon


    >not Kingdra

  • No rainbow star
    ^ Kingdra is also boss. I have a 30/31/28/31/31/31 Modest Swift Swim Kingdra
  • Definitely not gay.

    What


    how is that even POSSIBLE outside of cheating and simulators


    do you cheat

  • "I will grant you two wishes; one for each testicle."

    RNG abuse, or real good luck.

  • But you never had any to begin with.

    You can breed for good IVs too.

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!
    ^ Yeah, but breeding for IVs is kind of a cluster fuck. I know, I've tried.
  • If that don't work, use more gun.

    Breeding, RNG abuse, insane luck. There's various factors. Now if it was shiny, I would be calling shenanigans.

  • Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto!

    Maybe not anymore I wouldn't.


    In BW2 you can get the chance of getting a shiny all the way down to 1 in 1024.

    OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Which would make the odds of that specific shiny something along the lines of one in tens of millions.
  • Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto!

    Some people like to do these things all day.

  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    And if you did it all day every day for a decade you might eventualy encounter that Pokemon.
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    And if you did it all day every day for a decade you might eventualy encounter that Pokemon.



    Alternately, you can get a Pokemon with the egg moves/IV's you want to pass on to the Shiny Pokemon, then breed it with a Pokemon from a different country, increasing your chances of getting a shiny hatchling to 1/1366 in Black/White.

  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    True. I was assuming wild encounters.
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    Even so, assuming you are looking for a PokeRadar Pokemon, it's fairly easy to get a Shiny then. Take a lot longer to get one with set IV's, but a lot shorter than you seem to be assuming.


    Also, apparently the Shine Charm increases the chance of getting a Shiny from breeding two Pokemon from different regions from 1/1366 to 1/1024. Sweet.

  • Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto!

    Right, that's what I said.

  • No rainbow star
    Eel: A quick hatch and quick breed code. Even without those it only took a few hundred eggs though so it wouldn't have taken too long to get him
  • Definitely not gay.

    Well anyways


    if Pokemon were real?



    • Dogs would be 90% more frightening to deal with

    • The internet would be even more terrifying than it is now.

  • No rainbow star

    How would the internet be more terrifying?

  • Definitely not gay.
