    Something I've been mulling over today



    Quadrapedal animals are measured up to the shoulder, right? Doesn't that mean Meganium is 6 feet tall... At the shoulder? Making it's height with the neck about 12 feet?

    Just finished EV training my Chandelure, decided to name him Chandeljack just for-

    Dammit CJ, not now! Get back in the Pokeball!

  • No rainbow star
    Chandelure is such an awesome Pokemon, isn't O++O
  • No rainbow star

    So yeah. Pokemon X leads kids to porn


    Link One
    Link Two


    Who saw that one coming? I hope it was everybody

    Wait, what will Pokemon Showdown do if there are absolutely no sprites in XY?



    Also, Xerneas -> Z-erneas

    Yveltal -> EE-veltal



    XY -> ZEE



    It just amused me that taking the first letter of each legendary's name would allow the pronounciation of Z

    Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    ^Or they could throw a curve ball again and make X2/Y2 and have the box legendary be the Slope Pokemon. :P

    @Icalasari:

    Stop attempting to mimic the appearance of the in-game battle system, I'd guess.  Once you're not doing that, there's no real need to use sprites rather than official artwork or something.


    Or if they're feeling particularly awesome, they'll keep using the fifth gen sprites and make custom ones for the new guys.

  • "I've come to the conclusion that this is a VERY STUPID IDEA."

    ^^ No no, it'd have to be Pokémon dX/dY for that.

  • Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto!

    Well, before they even THINK about what sprites they are going to use, someone has to actually crack the 3DS. Without that, we won't know the ins and outs of the mechanics.

    ^^^ Not too hard to make custom sprites for all of the PokeOh right BW sprites aren't static fuck that shit

    Well, they could start with static sprites and then move to animated ones over time.


    The fifth gen CAPs have animated sprites so there is precedent.

  • No rainbow star

    I still don't understand how Pokemon's animated sprites work. Crystal's is just a few frames, Emerald's to HGSS is two frames with various kinds of distortion, but how does one recreate BW(2) animated sprites?

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

    By splitting a Sprite into separately animated "parts" usually including torso, arms, head, legs, etc.

  • No rainbow star

    ^ But how do they animate these parts exactly? Do they mark a point of origin on each variant of the part of something?

  • No rainbow star
    I just realized:



    X and Y are going to be the first versions where everybody has a chance at experiencing it with fresh eyes like RBY without having to avoid the internet for months



    Although the week or two before release will be hell thanks to street release breakers



    Unless the release is completely virtual, of course

    Apparently the Anime is bringing back Ash's Charizard
  • No rainbow star

    Japan is getting a Shiny Magikarp event


     


    Level 99 and holding a rare candy


     


    I find this hilarious since the karp is more valuable unevolved

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    > level 99


    Gonna be a bitch to EV train that motherfucker up.

  • I'm a damn twisted person

    Turn on the TV


    Ride up and down that bridge with the EV point wings for a few hours

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    deal with duckletts

  • No rainbow star

    In Gen V, EVs are recalculated after every battle


     


    If I recall correctly, this allows even level 100's to be ev trained. And if not, you can ev train a Pokemon via the Join Avenue without them being in a single battle, which still allows level 100s to be ev trained

  • I'm a damn twisted person

    Addendum - throw a level 50 something with intimidate in front of your party. or just spam repels.

    ... Huh. Apparently yes.

  • No rainbow star

    I just realized how special the Japanese Shiny Magikarp is


     


    It has Hydro Pump

  • No rainbow star

    COROCORO LEAKS!


    New movie had the title changed to Extremespeed Genesect and Mewtwo's Awakening

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

    What type would that be? A Normal-type Eeveelution?

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    Most likely, or they could throw a curve ball and have it be a Ghost type. :P

  • edited 2013-02-12 10:20:57
    But you never had any to begin with.

    The only thing we know about it is its name, Ninfia. I kinda want it to be Bug type, but yeah right.
