Aight, no need to be assy about it

 

[Dragopentling]

Any reason why Charizard and Lucario are 6-C but other 3 stage fully evolved mons like Dragonite, Salamence and Gyarados (who can also mega evolve), are still just High 7-A, even though they can CLEARLY fight on par canonically with the aforementioned two.

Holy RIP

I'm quite honestly the only person still making stuff for Pokemon. Everyone else just talks about it here.

 

[Lou_change]

I wouldn't be surprised if there is someone with a sandbox for some random Pokemon that they been working on off and on. Also some profiles honestly provide more obstacles to replacing them than if there wasn't a profile to begin with for example Meowstic. Espurr is unincluded except for a random mention in the intelligence section. It only properly acknowledge abilities exclusive to female Meowstic not the ones exclusive to males and still miss several. I actually just lied about the page not having any of the male ones abilities the power negation is either in reference to flinches or mean look, miracle eye, imprison, and/or misty terrain which is all exclusive to the male one.

I'll give you a little peek behind the curtain, you can search for everything that links to a verse page. This includes Sandboxes. Most Pokemon Sandboxes are either for pages that we already have, or are from dead accounts. This is only for ones that are linked, though.

 

[Lou_change]

It mostly just shows user profiles who linked it to their profile page due to user pages and sandboxes basically being the same thing according to fandom. Also it is probably better if we fix the current profiles then add new ones even if they are better. Luckily stuff like Pokemon physiology doesn't fall into that category also any chance that you would respond to my latest post in the thread about that.

some new dex entries

[NeoZex6399]

a lot of leaks rn

If that ends up being the official description of the move, it could have significant implications by calling type matchups laws of nature.

 

[Bobsican]

PLZA already leaked, that comes from a datamine from the actual game, so it is indeed. PLZA is releasing in a few days either way.

 

[Super_Ascended_Sean_Pazdera]

Easiest skip of my life. I hope it flops so we get quality Pokemon games back.

 

[Super_Ascended_Sean_Pazdera]

This kinda sums up my thoughts on Z-A.

 

[Lou_change]

Looked a bit further into the X Y pocket comic and Absol canonically uses its wings just to aura farm.

Spoiler: (Design Spoiler)Mega Feraligatr/Eelektross 10x multiplier

Feraligatr and Eelektross have a 10x multiplier in dex, I wonder if this can be used as a baseline increase for megas?

Spoiler

If anything when the new megas get abilities in Champions (imagine if Mega Feraligatr doesn't get Strong Jaw?), I'll be looking forward to using them on Showdown. It seems 10× is a semi-consistant multiplier the Dex entries like to use.

 

[Super_Ascended_Sean_Pazdera]

If anyone's got Pokemon profiles going, I'd like you all to complete them so we can all upload them tomorrow for Z-A's release date.

 

[Super_Ascended_Sean_Pazdera]

Z-A is confirmed noncanon btw

Meh, it's possible that the character merely told that to multiple people, if you mean this being a XY reference.

Anyways, PLZA is alluded to take place 5 years after XY.

Z-A treats the main game timeline and the Legends timeline as being one and the same, which directly contradicts the explanation given in Masters.

 

[Bobsican]

The whole deal in terms of how to treat Masters is a can of worms of its own, and it hasn't even concluded yet from what I recall.

 

[Lou_change]

Wimpod is confirmed faster than the speed of sound in the Sun and Moon pocket comics

Correct. If you mean a certain CRT related to it, AFAIK, waiting for at least 1 other staff member to respond, &/or for a certain clarification to happen.

 

[Super_Ascended_Sean_Pazdera]

Love having 7 CRTs all going at the same time and nobody commenting on a single one

 

[Bobsican]

Stuff like that is why there's a limit of active CRTs to be made per user these days.

 

[StekFence]

Masters is prob wrong then isn’t it

 

[Lou_change]

I been looking into the Pokemon pocket comics and am becoming increasingly convinced most Pokemon should have a possibility higher rating for intelligence given media like mystery dungeon, poke park and things like poke jobs, and poke pelago.

 

[Zyurtunder13]

That was your problem, thinking that Masters actually matters to the main series, that shit was never important and should've never be used as actual source of information for the actual canon of the main series

 

[Zyurtunder13]

It's confirmed in game to be 5 years after XY.

 

[StekFence]

Personally I think a mainline game or legends game should have precedence over the other games in terms of importance

Never talk to me again.

we shouldnt have 7 crts going anway. 3 is the limit per verse. maybe could be higher for a massive verse like pokemon.. but thats not for sure.

 

[Lou_change]

you could also bump them

I think that was changed. And there’s a difference between “going” and “not closed”.

 

[Imaginym]

FWIW, from what I've seen in the CRTs of his I've checked, Sean bumps his CRTs at an, IIRC, reasonably regular rate.

Part of the issue is lack of Staff evaluation. After all, that is necessary for a CRT to conclude.

Practically speaking, AFAIK, knowledgeable members & supporters stating their agreement or disagreement can help influence decisions, & their debates can influence conclusions.... But unfortunately, if the right people don't answer, the notion of making progress can become quite unlike what may be expected.
