There is a potential flaw in this: If Deoxys uses Protect, won't that make it invulnerable to Shuckle's Guard Split? Plus since Shuckle has horrible speed there's no way it could use Guard Split before the other team takes out Deoxys.

Even if Protect doesn't render Guard Split useless, the move Taunt would totally just destroy this; Shuckle is nothing without status moves.

Interesting idea though.

OH SHIT DAWG, I never realized that protect would block guard split, I feel like an idiot now.

The only way I can think of to get the deoxys shuckle thing to work now would be trick room, somehow.

Double posting pfft. You're disqualified and I instantly win Top Poster. Anyway, I'm thinking of finally finishing Soul Silver. Swagswagswag.

Soulsilver was good. It might have been my favorite. Black and White were seriously lacking.

I really didn't like gen 5.

Gen 2 for nostalgia reasons and then gen 3 are my favorite.

I really liked the story and new features of the time with gen 3, as well as the new mons. Gen 4 had been my favorite until I played Emerald again and then it ALL CAME BACK TO ME.

B/W were pretty good, but I've enjoyed B/W2 a lot more. Overall I like Gen 5.

I thought about getting black 2, but the boss theme song is awful. All that panning gives me a headache. Some things should be in the left ear, mainly the high melody. Other things should be in the right ear, mainly the harmony. stuff like percussion are best either mono or stereo, rarely should they ever be panned. That song was panned all over the place like it was playing ping pong. It gives you the audio illusion that you are spinning around, it can literally make you feel nauseous. It takes the cake for worst pokemon song, even worse than Arceus' theme (timpani followed by a child banging on a keyboard followed by a good 10 seconds of silence before it loops). The B/W kyurem theme would have been better if the didn't pan anything at all. I think they were trying to top garatina's theme.

so you didn't get a game because you don't like one of the songs in it that you hear like once

Yes, Part of the reason why I buy games is the music.

I don't know for sure that Protect blocks Guard Split, but I believe it does; it makes sense.

I like Soulsiver because I think it has the best music out of all the trainer RP pokémon games. I love Ice Path, Burned Tower, Lugia's battle theme, Bell Tower, Ruins of Alph, Sijoh Ruins, etc. Though in my opinion the Pokémon game with the best music is Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Darkness. It has so much awesome music, which is a big reason of why it 's my favorite DS game.

Ironic- I read this after talking about all the music stuff. I think it's a legitimate reason.

Primal Dialga's theme from Explorers of *ect* is one of my favorites

pkmn mystery dungeon games had some great music

I especially liked the Sky Tower song from Red/Blue rescue team

Now that mystery dungeon has been brought up, I think I'd have to go with blue rescue team as my favorite Pokemon game. I haven't played any of the newer mystery dungeons.

I love all the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games

they're all amazing.

What the fuck just happened

When two retarded teams meet

>not using gyro ball shuckle

Neko Professor wrote:>not using gyro ball shuckle

you used shuckle earlier

too predictable

I really like using the master ball to catch pokeymon. And I feed them rare candy that I hax'd.

Then they get huge really quick and that's that :D

The worst part is hunting them when you're a high level cuz you pwn the shit outta them before you can catch them.

The first pokemon game I played was Ruby, and I think I was about 7 at the time. When I got the Master Ball, I wasn't sure that it worked. Thinking that I could always get another one, I decided to test it on a common pokemon that I wanted.
I used my Master Ball on a Marill :'c

There's a move called False Swipe that will leave the pokemon it hits at 1 HP instead of killing it.

ALSO INSTEAD OF DOUBLE POSTING I'LL JUST PUT ALL THIS STUFF HERE INTO ONE HUGE ASS POST

CoroCoro scans have serebiiCONFIRMED.png some things.

Spoiler:

Stuff blatantly copied from someone on reddit who blatantly copied this stuff from serebii, regarding the first image in the spoiler:

• The first details of CoroCoro appears to have come out. Though currently unconfirmed, it looks too legit to be fake. We're currently investigating and translating so keep checking. With special thanks to my friend Gin for translation.
  
• First, the Pokémon on the far right is called Gohgohto and is the Riding Pokémon. It's Grass-type, 1.7m and 91.0kg. You can actually ride this Pokémon in the field. It can learn Horn Leech
  
• The lizard appears to be an Electric type, possibly Normal as well, but the name is currently unviewable due to overexposure. It has a new move called BaraboraCharge
  
• The bird is called Yayakoma and is the Japanese Robin Pokémon. It is Normal/Flying, 0.3m and 1.7kg
  
• The panda is called Yamchamu and is the Naughty Pokémon. It is Fighting-type, 0.6m and 8.0kg. It has a new move called Parting Remark
  

In the second image you can see the grass type mon being ridden, and also what appears to be some kind of character customization.


And then in the third image there's the actual boxart for the games.


so yeah. also I used my first master ball on Moltres in Fire Red.

Dude I am so ready for this game. I'ma hop off my goat, then I'ma fuck your bitch.

Really liking these mons so far.

I think I used my first masterball on Raikou in Crystal.
