There's some talk/rumormongering that the reason there was no actual game footage is because the games are going to be for the NX, and Nintendo hasn't officially revealed the NX yet so they can't show anything.

While I personally don't think it's true, it would be an incredibly smart move for Nintendo. Cockfighting Society as a launch title will solve all the install base problems.


After seeing the Direct, one of the writers over at Forbes speculated that S&M would have some sort of NX functionality to help the new console sell.

I think the trailer pretty much confirmed they're 3DS.
Right at the end of the scene showing concept art, modelling, etc it shows a 3DS being opened up before the titles come up.

If it wasn't gonna be 3DS why bother with that scene at that point?

Something that I found interesting was at the end of the trailer they say 'And it all comes together in...' Was this referring more to all their experience coming together to make a cool Pokemon game? Or does that mean that it's going to be bodaciously 'all' of the Pokemon world so far coming together in one game?

I like Pokebeach's theory of this being a Pokemon Gold and Silver sort of case, maybe we'll be able to revisit Kalos in this game and do new sorts of stuff there? That or they're just saying pretty words to build hype.

I'm sure they'll at least do something to address Kalos. They can't just reveal a robot Mega Diancie and Tengen Toppa Zygarde Lagann without having them in there SOMEWHERE.

In the beginning of the game, these Cockfighting Society in question destroy the current Cockfighting Society world and Kalos is the first region the surviving humans land in on this new world, there by addressing the plothole the series has had since Gen 3?

The problem I always have with Cockfighting Society games is that you have people at the retirement age talking about the "Good old days of catching (insert most common Cockfighting Society encountered in region)", and ruins stating all these Cockfighting Society have existed for centuries, yet everything else seems to be presented under the assumption that these are all recently found. Yes, I can understand that even we don't fully know every rat and bug that even infests our planet, but you cannot miss an entire species, or even society, like that.

I finished that Blue run I said I started a while ago. (With the Jynx and the Persian plan.)

Got to Champion Blue with Level 45 Blastoise, 45 Nidoking, 44 Ninetales, 50 Jynx, 47 Jolteon and 45 Persian.
Blue's Pidgeot was taken out easily by Jolteon.
Blue's Alakazam took out my Persian and Blastoise, took it out with Jolteon.
Blue's Rhydon got taken out by Nidoking.
Blue's Gyarados OHKO'd by Jolteon.

And here's the fun part. Blue's Level 63 Arcanine.
I sent out my (Level 44) Ninetales and used a Max Revive on Blastoise just in case.
I used Confuse Ray on Arcanine. It kept hurting itself, I keep using Flamethrower.
Confusion runs out, Arcanine constantly uses Leer and Roar. (Which does nothing vs trainers in Gen 1.)
I beat a level 63 Arcanine with a Level 44 Ninetales using Confuse Ray and Flamethrower.

Finally it was Blue's Venusaur vs Jynx.
Lovely facebattle- missed, Venusaur prepares Solarbeam.
Lovely facebattle again, Venusaur is asleep.
2 Ice Beams later and I'm the champion.


Edit: I forgot about forum wordfilters again.
Lovely facebattle

I really do want to try Pokken out, but I can't get any games by this age this easily.

Though I really want to try out Chandelure, just to see how a limbless, floating, and FUCKING BADASS light fixture operates in a fighting game.
Also he is my favorite Pokemon ever up there with Blaziken.

Chandelure is not what I expected.
It's voice is just so unexpected and the way it acts is just so playful. For example, one of its grabs surrounds the enemy with wisps and it dances around while the wisps fly into the opponent.

It also gets those >-< eyes when it does some attacks.

Despite that, yes. It's fire attacks are awesome.

While I'm on about Pokken, here's how my character looks like. I tried to colour coordinate with Sceptile.

Also got some Chandelure expressions.

Speaking of Chandelure-who I wanted to be my main, and has become my main- I cannot figure out one of its move.
Charging X then releasing will do that adorable pose, but I cannot figure out its/if it's got a purpose in battle.

I can't see an effect in the move list either.

More on Sceptile, his Mega Evolution changes his grab.

I'm pretty certain a massive tree drill to the face is gonna leave a mark.

I went straight for Machamp when I got it yesterday and I haven't been disappointed. I tried Pikachu Libre in practice and she seemed pretty cool as well.

I have an annoying situation.
I'm at a point where the battles in Pokken are becoming much more difficult, (S-rank.) and I get super salty when I lose despite it not really affecting my stats aside from Win/Lose rating.

But so I don't get too annoyed I give it a break, but now I'm sitting here not knowing what to do thinking of playing it more but I don't want to get so annoyed at losing.

Might play some more Super Mystery Dungeon. Haven't connected with everyone yet.

One other thing, Pokken Tournament has pushed Sceptile above Grovyle on my favourite Pokemon list.
