i’m going to get into competitive battling in sun/moon solely so i can make this team and use it in the battle spot. my strategy will be to make my opponents either too uncomfortable or too horny to think properly.
i was showing my mom the alolan pokedex while she was half-asleep, and she said ub-02 absorption looks like “an arnold schwarzenegger mosquito”
highlights from this interview with junichi masuda and shigeru ohmori:
no, yungoos and gumshoos were not intentionally based on donald trump
yes, they admit that the resemblance is uncanny, “especially the hair”
as everyone suspected, the “alolan forms only existing for gen 1 pokemon” thing is largely a nostalgia-grab
game freak doesn’t give two shits about the 3DS’s 3D mode
no mega evolutions until the post-game, but mega evolutions can still use Z-moves
alola will not have “too much water”
during development, crabrawler was just referred to as “Crab 1″
the whole “pokemon saying their own names” thing in the anime was largely done so audiences would have an easier time remembering the names of all the different pokemon
“Maybe in that universe the Pokémon starting saying their names first and then humans went, ‘Oh, okay. That must be your name.’“
Professor Huffmagic here with a very quick little tidbit in celebration of the new demo.So a lot of people have been asking about the hair that Dugtrio seems to have grown in his new Alolan form, and I wanted to throw a quick answer out here for you.
Anywhere that there is volcanic activity, but especially in Hawaii, there is something that occurs called Pele’s Hair.
Pele’s Hair is named after the Hawaii’n goddess of volcanoes. It is basically very thin strands of stretched basaltic glass. It is very light and often blows away and collects in large bunches.
It usually forms near large flows or fountains, and looks like lustrous golden human hair.
So as it turns out, this little dude has a totally reasonable and geologic explanation for its radical surfer doo.
All I can think of is He-man.
Sorry for the lack of updates, school has been keeping me busy, but if you have any questions about Pokemon, or any of the new Alolan forms, feel free to ask and I will do a post just for you!
Until next time trainers!
Stay safe, and be careful of the monsters that live in the tall grass!
