Grookey the punk rock ape pokémon! Grass/Rock confirmed!

I think this is the first time I've seen new starter pokemon revealed and not one of them left much of an impression on me. I hope I end up liking how they look fully evolved, or at the very least that they end up with interesting type combos, like in Sun/Moon.

Since this region seems to be inspired by UK, some people are wondering if it’s not because he is based on a football/soccer player.

Fire/Ground maybe? It is a rabbit and they do burrow.

I don’t care what any of the new starters look like (though Grookey is obviously the best) - I’m just hoping that they’ve fixed from Sun/Moon:

The trouble with Ash Ketchum is he always tries to walk the gym.

I will pick Scorbunny, he will be named Arsenal. Then I will ask people if they saw that ludicrous display last night.

I’m always fascinated by how quickly the internet works...how is there this much fan content in like 5 hours?

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: all of these reviews make me feel guilty for enjoying Anthem.

BIG IF TBH

Those poor kids, wasting all that money just to go to Norwich...

Kotaku has been crushing reviews lately. I tapped out of this series after Far Cry 4, didn’t play Primal or 5, and have no intention of playing this game. And yet I read this entire review. It pulled me in and made me think. I love the way it contextualized the series tropes through the game’s mechanics, story and…

The first time I played this game was in a Gamescom demo in 2014. At that point, the cloud-enabled destructibility was also planned for the single-player.

Glad Page is speaking out about this.
What’s interesting to me about this is that Hillsong Church, as a Protestant denomination, has been getting criticized for decades for a huge variety of things. It started in Australia in the ‘80s and got hugely popular about 15 or 20 years ago with Evangelicals in the U.S.…

Hillsong: It’s like Scientology but with Jesus

I played a lot of Titanfall 2 and I’ll toss out some suggestions off the top of my head. I thiiiink there’s some newer stuff here (or at least stuff I don’t remember or has been slightly changed) so folks can feel free to chime in with their recommendations too.

Assault Rifles - The R201 (I think it’s the 301 here?) is…

hahah suckers! I’m not good enough for things like “tiers” and “rankings” to matter. I can play anyone and be equally bad!

you should watch the in-game lore explainer

Remember when everyone was stupid and they all hated Popplio? And Pop turned out to have the coolest evolutions, which not only had terrific designs but had objectively the strongest base stats of any starter in the entire franchise?
