Gamefreak absolutely hates Trick Room. You'd think they would have made a Trick Room extender by now if they didn't.

They did make the Room Service item in gen 8 that lowers your speed when Trick Room is in play, but besides that i don't think they've made any sort of support for trick room other than making slow mons with insane stats

So apparently there is going to be a Switch 2 version of Scarlet and Violet. Not expecting much but it would be cool to see if they could somehow unfuck these games in terms of the graphics and performance. Won't fix the bad characters, uninteresting world and all the other things wrong with the games but them not running like shit would be cool. Though doubtful of Gamefreak being able to actually fix their games at this point.

Edit: Also yes I am pretty sure the Sun and Moon manga was published in English, if your talking about the Pokémon Adventure style one they did right? They also released Ultra Sun and Moons manga in English as well. Honestly they have been pretty good about giving the manga a English version pretty quickly lately though the problem is that they have been relegated to young kids manga's. Meaning the physical editions quality wise suck but they are pretty cheap at about $5 a piece.

I am quite happy with this direct.
1 I am genuinely excited about the new console and games, especially DK and Mario Kart.
2. The hardware limitations are no longer an excuse for Pokemon defenders. 4k 60fps is pretty impressive for the hardware. No more of that nonsense.
3. ZA in 60fps looks a lot better than it does on the old hardware. But it still needs to improve it's texturing and other stuff VASTLY. but it's a big step up. Credit where credit is due.

This is interesting news. As many of you know, XD introduced some unique moves for Shadow Pokemon that aren't normally available, in some cases even today. This is the only game to get these Pokemon with these movesets from, and I assume you will be able to transfer them directly into HOME ala what Bank did with 3DS Virtual Console releases...
...Except that HOME doesn't allow you to transfer Pokemon with event moves anymore, they get reset upon transfer to your game of choice by wiping all existing moves and learning what the Pokemon would know at that level, just like as if you would encounter a wild Pokemon of the same species.
How are they going to handle this? I don't have faith in modern day Gamefreak, knowing them they will likely not update HOME and make these Pokemon essentially useless outside their home game or not even let you transfer them back to HOME and forcing them to be stuck in their game.
These ports came out way too late, the franchise is so beyond repair now that all I can think about is how they will ruin them, never mind that these games still work great on Dolphin.

The simplest answer is unfortunately the one that a lot of fans won't like: They won't be compatible with HOME.

I actually don't mind this, purely from a collector's point of view. These are about as rare as a Pokemon gets, barely anybody has the tech and the games to transfer these to the newer games anymore. I do, and it's always nice seeing that "Found in: Distant Land" and the Mt. Battle/Purification Ribbons in their bio. If they were more common and suddenly the ignorant zoomer cattle knew these games existed, we would have a whole lot more dupes/fakes/genned Shadow Pokemon as well.

They're releasing a new console soon so maybe they'll want to help sell it be bringing either generation three or the GameCube games? Core Pokémon games are pretty valuable and I think they only released the first two generation games on 3DS because they needed a round of funding and since they knew the 3DS was getting close to it's discontinuation those games wouldn't be buyable again anyway. So maybe they'd rerelease the GameCube games? Most people haven't played them, I haven't.

Called it. Everyone :optimistic:ing my post must now replace it with a :winner:. I don't make the fucking rules.

The GC games are never getting re-released, Gamefreak for some reason wants everyone to forget they exist and Nintendo seems to want the same thing to happen to vast majority of it's GC library.

Mexicans/Hispanics love Pokemon so I don't see that happening. What is more likely to happen is that niggers will try and cancel Miror B because they genuinely think that anyone but blacks having an afro or dreads is "appropriating black culture". Watch for some sort of censorship or even blackening happening to Miror B for the "modern audience".

I can't even tell if this is sincere or not. You can never tell, someone tried shilling a romhack on /vp/ almost a decade ago that genuinely tried to just pass off gay marriage and a trooned out youngster as something normal(Phoenix Rising romhack) and the jannies had to clean up posts bullying them

There's still no Trick Room setting ability while every weather condition and terrain has it and I don't think there ever will be one without breaking VGC.

I nitially though that was Pokémon Pisces, bu the gender select screen is different.

I guess I have to dewoke this hack, too. I hope tha the gender select screen is the only thing that I need to fix.
By the by, should I stick to the 'Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?' prompts or just rewrite tha to 'Are you male? Or are you female?'

By the by, the original fangame is Project Parabellum, inspired by Pokémon Reborn:
From what I see, that is completely sincere. I do find ironic that a left-winger hates the IRS, given how much left-wing policies depend on taxes.
