Pokemon General [SFW, No NSFW]

Something I learn yesterday is that Ghetsis’s Hydreigon knows Frustration, and it hits for max damage. Let that sink in.

@yelling_into_the_void  
I’m dying.

I think Nosepass is kind of cute.

You know what fans would hate if they added glancing blows to the game that were the opposite of critical hits.

@Shepherd  
I think they did that in Disgaea. They’re called Nicks

@Marx
 
They should do it.

@Extre-Vile  
I like this line if bunny pokemon turned magicians.

Heights do not follow 10cm intervals.
 
Internally screams in pedantic agony

You know, Why are Normal-type badges given the most denigrating names possible? Plain Badge, Basic Badge.  
I guess Balance Badge is fine. But the others just scream “ look at how pathetic we are”. Why not “Fair Badge” or “Raw Badge”?

@Exceptionally Average Individual And Lurker
 
Well, to be fair, normalcy isn’t all that’s cracked up to be, especially in comparison to other elemental types.

Someone find me a semi-trippy gif of Xatu seeing the past and future! You know the one.

Honestly, I think X/Y are the games that left the least of a impression on me.

@Meanlucario  
I can’t hate them since they got me interested in the series again.

@Marx  
I don’t hate them, and do enjoy/love what they bought, like megas and the fairy typing, but the games themselves don’t stick out in my mind very much, I’ll admit.

X and Y plot in a nutshell:
 
Lysandre: (multiple times throughout the game) I want to murder everyone.  
Everyone: Oh, that Lysandre, what a guy!
 
Lysandre: (during the finale of the Team Flare arc) I’m going to murder everyone with the ultimate weapon.  
Everyone: Oh my GOD, who could have predicted this?

@Jarkes  
I think it was more subtle than that, but yeah, it’s not that hard to see that the bitter guy with power who wants to keep things beautiful might be evil.

@Meanlucario
 
In Y he literally says “I would end the world in an instant for everything to remain beautiful” the first time you meet him. In X the corresponding line is about “making the world unchanging.”
 
Not to mention Lysandre Cafe is bright red and always has a Team Flare Grunt outside of it, as well as how his outfit just SCREAMS “I’m the villain”.

@Jarkes  
True. Also, I think I’ll replay my first Y team in a month or so on X (since I think my older brother has Y with his own team on it, and which version I play doesn’t matter).

Is it just me, or does Rock/Water seem like a bad type combination?

@Meanlucario  
Or you just don’t like it.

@Meanlucario  
Eh, it’s not the worst.
