You say all that with a straight face, and not even a passing reference to Jean-Claude van Damme’s own mid voice acting in MK1? Your thinly veiled sexism just reeks of Joe Rogan and Andrew Tate-isms.

Now why on earth would Nintendo release ANY of their solid gold IP on hardware that wasn’t their own? They just barely try on mobile, because they cannot control for all device factors, but to its credit The Pokemon Company does have some fun games, like Pokemon Sleep. 

You misunderstand on so many levels. WB paid Fox a tidy sum for her likeness, her voice, and her enduring appeal for those who lust after her to sell their game. In that regard, mission accomplished.

Gahhhhhh you mentioning all this just makes me think of the MAJESTY that is Pokemon Battle Revolution, and its epic soundtrack. Think I will jam to that while I work today!

Calm down, they just gave everyone F-Zero 99, and are about to drop Super Mario RPG remake. After making Earthbound available on NSO. They know the classic IP goldmine they are sitting on, and are shrewd to deploy it in-between bigger, bolder projects that carry more risk and expectations.

Apple’s acquisition of P.A. Semi in 2008 for the small sum of about $278M was its wisest investment since re-hiring Steve Jobs, and giving Jony Ive whatever he wanted while he was there in body, mind, and spirit. That, and having Tim Cook helm the company in Job’s wake.

Pretty sure this is just the usual toxic core gamer nonsense. I wish studios did not have to pander to these whiny fools. 

You are player hatin, as it were.

Fair enough :-D

No. That would put them on the same hardware development schedule as Sony and Xbox, which would be a disservice to their ethos, and their bottom line if they are competing for chips of the same/nearly the same generation.

All of the above was me very gingerly suggesting that perhaps you should find a smaller hill to joust upon with a Bloodmoon Ursaluna over the semantics and naming conventions in Pokemon.

But...the pokemon is...of legend...hence Perrin’s quest. It is a giant bear that shoots red moonbeams from its head, and its signature ability allows it to hit ghosts with normal and fighting type moves. Bloodmoon Ursaluna is a legendary pokemon in all but name (and perhaps stats), if you ask me.

Au contrere mon frère! I LOVE the idea of a unique cryptid, which adds to the appeal and quest-like nature of getting this special Ursaluna. For ages, there have been myths about super-large and super aggressive bears in Alaska, and the native people associate different concepts to each. In more recent times, we have…

I can definitely see the syrup attack’s color simply being linked to the syrup color of the Dipplin that fires it. Programmatically, that would make the most sense, and to make it look cohesive. Besides Dragapult and Blacephalon, there’s GOTTA be a couple more attacks that behave similarly. RIGHT!?

You mean RNG deciding what choco comes out of an egg? That sounds WORSE. 

Yes, I would like a Firaña margarita, please. Love this!

It was just your browser. May wanna call Comcast or whomever your ISP is. The video was buttery smooth, and peachy.

Yassssss! Team Rocket really is the Gay Mafia.

Well to be fair, Lt. Surge is probably married, bi, and only gets down on the low with similarly masculine men such as Peony under VERRRRY strict circumstances. But the vibe is there, and my gaydar is very accurate.

In no particular order, here are some very gay observations about the first gen of Pokemon, from a certified gay:
