<p><p><p><p><p><p>It seems exciting for a global release, but as you know, I'm afraid of its implications: globalist. Ick. Not to mention they butchered France, but seeing it is supposedly somewhat based on it, I'll give this game a whirl. It looks better than BW universe. Who is your starter going to be?</p></p></p></p></p></p>

MegaKabuterimon Heracross. I can see Mega Aggron and all sorts of others, especially Pokemon that are popular. Eww this is Digimon. And I'm almost certain Pokemon isn't a socialist game where they try to make Pokemon equal. In fact, I'd hate that. But I also don't like that huge disproportionate imbalance amongst some things. Some legendaries don't work as promised (Entei without Earthquake, Moltres without Brave Bird or any usable physical attacks, Articuno 'nuff said), and some typings don't have the right adjustments (Ice only resisting Ice really?). Hey it's not like we needed a Mega Mewtwo did we? I'd like obscures to get Mega forms as well. I'd be upset if Staraptor got a Mega form and Pidgeot didn't. But I'd like them both to have one... though Staraptor is fine as it is. Mega Braviary would be cool. But above all, I want a Mega Magikarp! I still think it's wise to have a metagame where Megas are entirely banned vs a metagame with Megas allowed, and from there, it's like the regular metagames, except with Megas ranked by tiers, if that is applicable. I'm so scared of MegaScizor or something. You see, it seems like Fairies will create a sharp rise of Steels (should Steel be effective vs Fairy, which is most likely), as if they weren't already popular enough. I know Fires resisting Fairy was an effort to counteract it a bit, but Fires were never a durable type enough to be used a lot in the standard metagame, and a Pokemon called Heatran exists. Eep. I don't know how well Fairies will balance the metagame out, but only time will tell. I just don't like how it seems to raise Steel type presence, while Fighting types MAY (and I don't even know if it's true) be weak to Fairy and ineffective. Not that Fighting type needed and more boost than what they have now... of course. Don't you want a Mega Charizard? Not that it isn't strong (it's very powerful, especially with Solar Power), but everybody and their mothers yelling "lol SR weakness" puts it to obscurity. Now imagine a Mega Form. Possibly Levitating Fire/Dragon (although I'd still like some power boosting ability still).

Mobile AIDS. Fun huh? It pays to know your Asian languages, particularly Chinese characters. Kind of a blessing for me because I know quite a bit of Chinese characters to know what they represent, even though I may not know their pronunciation in Japanese. I did know ryu meant Dragon in this case, however. I'm assuming den will be the pronunciation for "electric" (as it is present in "Dentula" Galvantula as well). I am only skeptical because Dragon is not a new type, unlike Fairy, so they had many opportunities in the past to make such a typing modification, if they wished to. There was absolutely NO sort of indication for Dragon typing (not even access to Dragonbreath, which is something even Onix can access) asides from nomenclature, however. However, any sort of change can occur. So yeah, that bothers me. But however way they wish to implement it: make way for Draco Meteor + ferocious combination of other moves. Ampharos's movepool isn't all that scarce: it does have Focus Blast, Signal Beam, Power Gem, and some stuff. Though they seem generally unhelpful. There's also Agility and Cotton Guard. Is it safe to say that many of those non-evolving Pokemon will get a Mega form? I'd like to see a Mega Druddigon become an actual gargoyle... or Mega Carnivine and such to bring them out of obscurity. Oh, and Mega Tropius, because it's supposed to be a ferocious dinosaur from the gods. It's a dragon too, and gets Dragon moves such as Dragon Pulse and Dragon Dance. Its stats do not represent anything ferocious, unfortunately. And good Lord: Mega Pidgeot... perhaps it will actually become useful after all and specialise in Gale power like it should! Can't wait to see these new changes. But... on the flip side... we can also get... Mega Garchomp, Mega Conkeldurr, Mega Excadrill, Mega Haxorus, Mega KimIlSung Volcarona, Mega Blissey... think of the scariness of it all! However, I think Mega Stone generally favours offensive Pokemon, as a lack of Leftovers really hurt defensive ones. EDIT: Oh. Ampharos does learn Outrage via Move Tutor. But then again, that move is given to a bunch of irrelevant Pokemon as well, particularly random starters and angry guys like Primeape and such.

The Korean name for Ampharos is 전룡 (電龍), which means electric dragon. I think Japanese "Denryuu" is the same. In fact ryu does mean dragon. So I did somewhat see it coming, but I don't think normal Ampharos was revealed to gain a Dragon typing. I hope Gamefreak surprises us later. To me, most of these MegaEvos look like deity power bestowed on Pokemon. I somewhat did expect this kind of thing. There is too much resemblance to such, because Absol has that Fortuna or any god of chance look to me (RNG... random number goddess). Mhh, new Mewtwo has Insomnia. I guess it is better than nothing though. Watch as only Fire starters get a MegaEvo. Post will be edited as I hate typing on mobile touchpad.

<p><p><p><p><p><p>They most likely won't rework it, but some of it does need some reworking. For example, I'd hate it, but Water being weak to Poison won't really hurt that much, as Poison is relatively uncommon anyways. Thank goodness Fairy isn't weak to Fire: I'd hate Azumarill being neutral to it. It's already neutral to Steel now, if Steel (most likely will) is strong against Fairy. And now that gives more excuses for Ice gaining extra resistances. Yay! And did they seriously put Kyurem in OU just because it is Ice? Most of the ubers can be taken down by conventional pokes anyways....... but yeah, everybody hates Ice. Even if Ice is strong offensively, but Fire does the same thing, and even not known for being a defensive type, still resists certain key types.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Heh, Life and Death, it's not about superiority over the other, though you know, they did that with Water and Land. One can argue, though, there's more water in the upper crust than land, but there's greater molten magma underneath the surface, and yet it still is that way. If Dark is weak to Fairy (I don't want my Tyranitar dead to some random fairy... and besides it has too many weaknesses already), at least let the two be effective against each other. We have two NVEs (Bug and Fighting), and no effect (Normal and Ghost). Bug and Poison got removed from two SEs.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>Knowing Gamefreak, Ice will be weak to Fairy because Fire resists it. And Fire and Ice are opposites. Herp derp.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I can't wait to see the reworking of the elemental table, if they actually rework it and not just tag in Fairy type and add resist/weakness for Fairy and others. If they do that, they might as well make a dud type that is neutral on everything (??? type). Ice needs more resists. Period. At least Grass has usable resistances to somewhat counteract its 5 weaknesses (though 2 of them are arguably uncommon).</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>Anime is anime. Nothing we can do about it. It's like the Megaman series: after one game defeated, Megaman loses all his weapons and starts anew. Except in an anime, it doesn't really make sense. Still don't like Uberchu and all... especially when the anime continually picks on ICE LEGENDARIES to kill. Seriously now?</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>Dragons are the ultimate type: makes sense for high stats, but they worked a little too well. Hence the new Fairies to "balance" it, but it may make them too powerful.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
-
<p><p><p><p><p><p>Unfortunately, the other part of the rumour suggests Dark and Fighting are BOTH weak to Fairies. I honestly don't know how this balance will work out, in all honesty. It just means more Steels from what I see. However, the fact Fire now resists Fairy may mean it is a subtle way to keep some of those Steels in check. Unfortunately, Heatran is BOTH Fire and Steel.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>I wouldn't want it to have excessive weaknesses, however. I just want Ghost to resist Fairy or even immune (3 immunities ftw). Ghosts should be immune to all physical moves, but... that's too broken. If Fire resists, then it is almost certain Psychic resists Fairy as well.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>Ironically Fighting types were garbage in Gen I... now Psychic has taken the fall (but slowly rose in Gen V) and Fighting is very dominant.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

Mega Stone is anything but gimmicky. Lucario with 240 BP STAB attack? Mawile that outpowers a Thick Club Marowak? It's like creating a "Champion monster" for a team. I suppose one can create a "Megas allowed" metagame and a standard that bans all Megas. And the metagame that allows Megas... I don't know how one would tier MegaPokes though but that will reveal itself in the end when all Megas are unveiled. Ampharos's Mega adds 3 extra weaknesses (Ice, Dragon, Fairy), but it does give it 3 more resistances (Fire, Water, Grass)... and one overkill 4x resist to Electric. Meh. It's basically a special attacking version of Zekrom, from what I'm seeing. Same type, same abilities (it can finally fry Lightningrod Seaking!)... Ampharos's power isn't a pushover either and is most likely going to be boosted through MegaEvolution. My question is how Megas would work if their typings change with the Mega Stone. Is Ampharos gaining extra Dragon moves? It doesn't seem right because these Pokemon transform during battle, and Ampharos is unable to use Draco Meteor and the likes normally. It seems very confusing, and if that's the case here, I do not see how it will work if it cannot take advantage of its gained dual typing. Kangaskhan with Parental Bond sounds incredibly broken. Just imagine two STAB Returns headed your way: guaranteed 2HKO or less on most opponents that isn't Ghost (it loses Scrappy unfortunately). That is, unless the baby has a set base stat that is much lower than that of its mother's (which would make sense).

<p><p><p><p><p><p>The anime is a total fabrication. Period. Ash's Pikachu defeats countless amount of Golems, Onix, Marowak that just defeated Ash's Bulbasaur, Dragonite, Regice, tied with Latios, defeated a mirage Mewtwo, etc... and loses to some punk's Elekid. Need I say more? And it never ends... Ash is forever 10... and like Naruto they continue milking the series and it becomes cheesier by the dozen.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>I do like the Special characters... kind of. But it becoming anime... interesting I guess.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>I KNEW IT. KOREANS WOULD NAME THEIR FAIRIES 페어리 (Peh-uh-ri)... seriously? At least the Chinese have their own language... we should do the same... 요정 (妖精).</p></p></p></p></p></p>
-
<p><p><p><p><p><p>Wait... it is confirmed Fires are resistant to Fairy? Didn't that old rumour say Fairy is not very effective against Fire and Psychic? I thought the Fire was random... but look, that part of the rumour is confirmed. I hope it isn't effective against Dark. If it is, then it should be NVE vs Ghost. If it isn't, then there goes Sableye and Spiritomb "no weakness" trait. At least Fires have another type they resist: which is nice. ICE AND GHOST PLEASE RESIST FAIRY!</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>The old rumour also says Fighting types are weak to Fairy. Fighting types are scary: I wouldn't bring in Flying types either because they always have Stone Edge or something scary. Mawile being Fairy was confirmed too. Good grief.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Groudon Kygre disparity is almost unfair. Yet everybody and their mothers picked Ruby version and mostly neglected Sapphire. Wut? However both are quite good.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>If they do bring back gen I's bug/poison relationship to dark/fairy, things will get interesting. I am also positive fighting and fairy have a relationship as well. Fairy will impact most of the prominent typings of the metagame, but please do not be SE to ice! From current speculation I only see the rise of Steels and making Scizor more dominant, unless somehow Fires are affected in this, which just might (but SR make fires hard to manage).</p></p></p></p></p></p>
-
<p><p><p><p><p><p>99% sure they will mess up and OP fairies. If its actual weaknesses are just Poison and Steel, it is rather unfair, because both attacking types are not common: I don't believe the entire metagame will carry random Steel Wings or something to deal with fairies.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>I don't believe Dark needs another weakness. It is already balanced enough. Does Tyranitar need to be weak to it too? With that said, Spiritomb will lose its no weakness trait that way unless Ghost resist Fairy. What if dark and fairy are SE against each other?</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Even if Nintendo states that, it doesn't simulators and all cannot incorporate that. I'm still waiting on 6v6 sudden death match mode... that would be something. Megas 6v6 would be almost like Ubers. Megas may actually totally redefine the tier system should no one even think about making separate Mega usable or unusable tier. I do see them as Super Pokemon placed as a "champion". Mawile is ridiculous: do you realise that thing is stronger than MAROWAK with THICK CLUB... should it retain its 85 Attack? Its movepool isn't even poor either... just think about it. And unlike Marowak, it does have priority (though situational priority) and that typing seems rather scary. Fire attacks will still down it, of course.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>Yay Pokemon Special anime. Hmm interesting. Wonder how that will go.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>Plenty of Fighting Pokemon learn Psyb-*gets shot*</p></p></p></p></p></p>
<p><p><p><p><p><p>Yancy/Curtis? Please tell me about that: I'm actually unsure about what that means.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
-
<p><p><p><p><p><p>I really need to read those through. I'm just so tired these days, and unfortunately unable to function properly since I'm busy and unable to stay indoors. That being said, I do like the idea of Megas, but I'm still afraid of the possibility of them breaking stuff. Seriously, double attacking Kangaskhan is just incredibly powerful. Much too powerful. Unless the baby isn't too powerful and only does half damage or something, but still... that's like a free Choice Band right there without the Choice locking. When it does hit the metagame, there probably should be Mega-less and Mega-allowed version of the games... or even strange theoretical ones with 6 Megas vs 6 Megas. Those would be interesting.</p></p></p></p></p></p>
