Maybe he's referring to the fact that iClassic players are content with hat shop addition after hat shop addition?

Now that definitely is something I can agree with. There's just way too many old servers getting picked apart by lazy vultures.

I haven't played one of these games since Yellow, but Red/Blue/Yellow are literally the same game, and for some reason I had all 3

AnarchyGraal 06-05-2014 11:01 PM

Call of Duty is a franchise that needs to take a break.

Wtf why does Swampert look like he gave up on himself and became a low-income alcoholic?

Keeluah 06-08-2014 05:05 AM

I just noticed, Brendon's hair is brown not white. In the original game that hat looked so much like hair.

5hift 06-08-2014 05:12 AM

Yeah how bout' that...

A hat the contours the shape of your hair.

WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO YOU RAYQUAZA

please let those not be real

Keeluah 06-08-2014 07:13 AM

Mega Sceptile is Grass/Dragon-type
Mega Kyogre and Groudon are also known as prehistoric Kyogre and Groudon. Their mega evolutions are considered ancient devolutions.

And the Rayquaza stuff are fake, just adding Rayquaza head and color scheme to Dialga and Palkia.

Shurikan 06-08-2014 04:06 PM

Swampert looks like he has done 10 years in the poke day care. Also I wonder if the characters are able to be customized again?

(I always thought his hair was white, guess it is a hat)

Eh. His movepool is /really/ lacking and has no good boosting moves so I doubt he'll be used as a Swift Swimmer on most rain teams unless he gets a HUGE stat boost since Kabutops gets SD and Life Orb. I could see him being a strong anti-Rain Pokemon though if he runs a bulky support set with that strong typing kinda like Gastrodon can.

Hadi 06-10-2014 08:24 AM

but still he probs has a new move thats gonna be added to his move set. He could probably beat sceptile as he is now with an ice punch ohko. Mega blaziken would be ez too.

From serebii:
"Further details have been revealed about the Pokémon, Mega Sableye. It is confirmed that Mega Sableye retains its Dark/Ghost-type, but rather than keep any of the abilities, it gets the ability Magic Bounce. It has increased Defense and Special Attack stats, but decreased Speed. During battle, Mega Sableye shelters itself behind the jewel, from where it can take advantage of any openings its target leaves exposed."
Tank much

Sariss 06-20-2014 07:10 AM

Tbh I don't think too many people will use it as their mega. While Magic Bounce is good, Sableye's main use was for Prankster.

Sableye is pretty formidable. He starts of with prankster as he goes in the match and people might think he will mega evolve and wont burn him. Taking this chance he can throw in a status move and then mega evolve the next turn as a tank that probs stalls.

Yeah but then you have to split his moveslots in two.

There goes all of my excitement for Mega Sableye.

Magic Bounce. Special attack increase instead of special defense. Really. Three things it doesn't need. Unless that defense boost is huge (which is absolutely irrelevant due to Prankster Will-O-Wisp), this will be the least used Mega only after Banette.

Increased defense? As if it needs it after a WoW. 252 Atk Choice Band burned Dragonite Outrage vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Sableye: 130-153 (42.7 - 50.3%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

Magic Bounce? Prankster Taunt (which is retained after Sableye leaves the field and creates set-up opportunities).

Special attack? lol dat HP and speed tho

There are better Magic Bouncers, like Espeon and M.Absol, who are much faster and don't die to a single special attack before getting a hit off. Sableye doesn't even need Magic Bounce. Sableye's offensive movepool is **** and it doesn't and shouldn't take an offensive role, ever. Once it loses Prankster, its only niche in the whole OU metagame is completely lost and it's open to be rendered useless with any relatively strong special attack. Not to mention there are much better Megas for use in any role it feels like playing.

Unless both of those stats are raised to 150+ to compensate for lack of Life Orb and Leftovers respectively on whatever role it wants to take, there are better options. The only saving grace is if Serebii made a typo or derped out and typed special attack instead of special defense.

Hadi 06-20-2014 10:02 PM

lol I read it as special defense.

Talon 06-20-2014 10:46 PM

I sure hope it is SpD (´-`)

Sup3rn00b 07-01-2014 11:37 PM

Wait. Mega sableye has magic bounce? sad sad day.

Magic Bounce could actually be of some use, he could block Stealth Rocks/ Spikes/being crippled by Toxic, and a SpA boost isn't too shabby, it may be able to do some damage with Dark Pulse or Shadow Ball. Also, I thought Mega Absol was the least used mega. Also, it can always go for a Will-O-Wisp with Prankster and them mega-evolve after that.

Again, it can always wait to mega evolve and burn Dragonite with Prankster and then mega evolve after that to gain even more defense.

Again, it doesn't have to mega evolve the turn it's sent out, it can do some stuff with Prankster and then tank even more by mega evolving.

It depends on the boost it gets, if it gets enough of a boost it could manage to do some damage with attacks, however HP and Speed is a bit of a downside.

Well, we know he's getting a boost in defenses, so he'll still be able to tank, maybe even better. He can get off WW, Recover and other tanking moves, and then Mega evolve into Sableye to a) get a boost in defense and tank (possibly) and b) prevent itself from being destroyed by Toxic.

I'm pretty sure it'll get a giant boost in whatever stat they decide to raise. Many of the mega evolutions have stats that go above 130-150, and whether it's 130 SpA or SpD it'll still be pretty nice. Only thing is that it lacks any reliable recovery (other than recover, of course.)

Sariss 07-04-2014 08:48 AM

1. Mega Absol is definitely not the least used mega evolution 2. Toxic doesn't cripple sableye

1) I thought it did, since I rarely ever see it.
2) Despite having Recover, Toxic does more damage each turn, do even if you're recovering all that damage back up, eventually you'll be forced to switch out.

True, but sometimes you won't have that advantage. For example, the opponent can predict the switch into Sableye and go for Toxic.

Jester Lapse 07-09-2014 04:11 AM

secret bases confirmed. All I needed to get hyped

Keeluah 07-09-2014 04:35 AM

You know what would be OP? A mega-Slaking with Huge Power. Imagine that, get rid of it's nasty Truant ability which really hindered it, with it's insane attack, add huge power, boom another mega to join Blaziken in the Uber category with that Return sweep.
