Social The Social Thread 3.2.1

[Z25]

Do we know if gens 6-9 beta is included in all of this?

They leaked the basic dev files for Sun and Moon/USUM, but it doesn’t seem to be the beta. They are still trying to decode it though.

Gen 6 remains to be seen minus ORAS’s source
File which doesn’t seem too different from final game.


X and Y may still get leaked as it’s suppose to be in the files.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Apparently, Concord has been getting updates on Steam despite having been taken down last month.

I honestly think the game deserves another shot with all the work that was put into it, but unless the majority of the characters get redesigned and/or the gameplay gets heavily revamped so that it actually stands out compared to other Hero Shooters, I can't see any revival of the game lasting for long.

 

[PeridotGX]

I pseudo-speculated on the mega lineup for Z-A (it was going to be for a fake leak I never ended up posting). I'm already 0-2 lol. I guessed there wouldn't be a mega Zygarde because it already has its own thing with the cells (as opposed to Xerneas and Yveltal, who I did put down as getting megas). I also correctly guessed a Gen 7 mythical would get a Mega... except I thought it would be Magearna because it was already vaguely connected to Kalos, not Zeraora.

I made a few other big swings, let's see if they pay off.

Before anything happens i'm going to post this so i can brag about being the guessing goddess

Charcolh - Fire/Rock. Evolves from Magcargo when exposed to the Black Agurite.

Cremtrier - Fire. Can fuse with Calyrex to create Calyrex - Flame Rider

Aanungamir (10% forme) - Ice.

Aanungamir (33% forme) - Ice/Rock.

Aanungamir (66% forme) - Ice/Fire.

Aanungamir (100% forme) - Ice/Electric

Zygarde’s various forms are used as Ride Pokemon - but you can only use the 10% form in battle before the post game. All of them are Dragon/Ground type. Aanungamir is vaguely antagonistic. AZ’s Floette is in the game. A character calls it an “Ascendant form” and compares it to an “Ursaluna found on a faraway island”, so i guess those are a thing now. No new regional forms - the only ones that show up are Galarian Zigzagoon, Paldean Wooper, and Alolan Raichu.

If it does stay the same design despite going F2P, then it will be a pointless rebound that ends with the same crash.

Also, Concord has a HUGE ($400 million dollars) debt to pay for Sony if it starts getting back on its feet.

 

[TheCJBrine]

Beta Simisear is so much cuter and cooler what were they thinking?

 

[SnakeFighter64]

What if instead of Game Freak it was called Game Fre- oh wait

Of course Cyrus is autistic! He's an evil, anti-social man who doesn't feel emotions, and tries to destroy the world to make one where no one can feel any emotions.

Aren't all autistic people like that?

I mean… i definitely went through a “world domination” phase in college but idk if that’s common for other autistic people.

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

I’m just glad the biggest takeaway from these leaks was beta designs, some out of pocket lore and memes, instead of blowing the lid on a game that won’t be released for a year.

As much as I'd love to say this is the case...it's only day 2 Noi.

There's no honor among thieves. Give it a week and I'm betting it'll all be out there.

 

[Z25]

FYI:

Rumor has it the leaker has shared the ZA files with about 12 other people. With there allegedly being a patch for emulators that would let them play the game( the leaker originally claimed he did have the rom and played it in full)

So at this point it’s a matter of time before more people start sharing, so be forwarded as the game might leak within the next few days

lol I can’t imagine Gaia has anything crazy so far. Maybe we would get the region inspiration and design, and then the starters. Which would be wild.

We can't dodge it forever. Now, I need to recharge after seeing the gigaleak on Gamefreak.

I told my friends not to share any upcoming game related leak in our group chat. They're not as big on Pokémon as I am these days but they could probably come across this stuff online and share it, so I warned them in advance

Unless we get leaks shared here in this thread I should be fine

 

[Shroob]

Still, I wanna know what the design team were on when they thought up beta Metagross and Cacturne.

Those designs are legitimately terrifying.

They hired the guy that made those realistic pokemon designs. They really wanted to show the graphical change between Gen 2 and 3.

Metagross is funny though because Pokemon insurgence has a similar spider idea for it:

I never really made a spider connection before that though

That Cacturne design could work as a Mega Evolution

[Noipoi]

Still, I wanna know what the design team were on when they thought up beta Metagross and Cacturne.

Those designs are legitimately terrifying.

My current theory is that, for a hot second, they toyed with the idea of making Pokemon more “mature”.

At the time Gen 3 was in development Pokemania was fading away, and there was a big question of whether Pokemon would stand the test of time or just be another fad of the 90s. I think they very briefly thought of making the series edgier to keep up with the trends of the early 2000s.

Of course they obviously decided against that in the end. Y’know, assuming this theory is true.

Yesterday I was explaining to my parents the NSO playtest and they didn't believe me when I told them that there will be some people who will intentionally ignore the NDA.

Poor souls

 

[Dukefire]

For those that will ignore the NDA, it is better to not face the wrath of Nintendo themselves.

Dumbass, you are literally provoking a sleeping giant.

 

[SneakyLink]

I bet there’s also gonna be one or two people trying to sell the codes to get in.

However, since the playtest required registering your Nintendo ID, I bet it won’t work except to the registered accounts.

[Michael the Spikester]

Reading Carnifex. I really enjoy it so far but one thing really grates at me at how idiotic the main human villains methods really are.

Spoiler

So Charlie, the owner of the Kooylah National Park along with his family had been protecting the existence of the marsupial lions 50+ years, maybe even more and continues to want to continue keeping them a secret so their existence isn't threatened by greedy corrupt landlords and potential poachers.

But at the same time, by getting rid of the witnesses or those that threatens the secret of their existence. Yes feed these people to the very creatures you want to protect, it isn't like by doing this you're only going to make them even more dangerous than ever...Oh wait...

If he was actually smart and want to protect them, then lure those people somewhere, snipe them, feed their bodies to the crocodiles, crocodiles don't leave anything behind nor are they an endangered species. Whatever fate awaits you (Arrested, killed by the very creatures you swore to protect, killed by one of the main human characters), this is all on you and this all could had been avoided if you just simply brought the main human characters to a watering hole with crocodiles and left them behind.

Because if anything you're only making the creatures you swear to protect more dangerous. You should know once a carnivore eats someone, they develop a taste for human flesh (Cases for rogue maneaters like tigers) and there's still that chance you might slip and their secret is revealed.

Especially for a guy that if possible tries to avoid dispose innocent people who might accidentally expose their existence.

Hell, if you REALLY wanted to play this smart, there'd probably been animal organizations that could've helped you keeping their existence as a secret until the time was right to ensure they'd be in no danger.

Not that I'm defending his actions btw, bro deserves to go to jail at least for what he's doing. Just saying if he were smart, this is what he would do to protect them. If he was a sadistic ******* to begin with that took joy in it, there wouldn't be this problem then.

That said. Got less than a hundred pages to go and then onto my next book Cherokee Sabre by Jamison Roberts.

The other places aren't quite as memorable for me but I'm pretty sure there are a few. While King-ohger definitely had a unique story, I'm quite enjoying the return to less CGI heavy fighting scenes. The characters are great, too - Bun Black is easily my favorite black ranger so far.

Yeah I just couldn't get as invested in Kingoher for similar reasons, though it having more emphasis on a story was nice even if it solidified my thoughts on what a Sentai should be like as I didn't like Kyuranger much though. Might check it out next week as I have a vacation planned
