What a completely normal trailer for an adorable and wholesome game (Epilepsy warning)


Spoiler alert: it is not an adorable trailer.

Not sure how the quality of the final product's going to turn out, but it looks like we've got a new mascot horror game on the way. I was actually fooled at first and thought it was gonna be a 2D platformer but the top comment spoiled it for me lmao

How does Blaze do all that running in heels?
Considering the animation in the Rush games shows her shooting fire from her feet to glide a short distance, I’m pretty sure she does that to move fast like Shadow. I could be wrong though. I’m pretty sure she does run normally in most media.

Maybe she’s just a Queen who’s amazing at running in heels.

Theory time theory time Pokemon theory time

So there’s an ongoing debate on both the time period and the starters of ZA. Assuming the game takes place closer to the present, many people think the starters will be the gen 6 trio again, instead of three starters from other regions like Legends Arceus. Kalos’ Pokedex is already established so it wouldn’t make sense for them give you anything by else, right?

But consider this. In Legends ZA you aren’t another rookie trainer setting out on your journey for the first time, you’re part of an urban redevelopment plan. So instead of the professor giving you a Pokemon, the project manager or someone else would give you one, and the selection could be totally different starters.

Obviously we won’t know what’ll happen until we see the game, it could be the Kalos starters, a mixed set, or something else entirely. I was just thinking about Pokemon (as always) and figured I’d share a theory.

A GAME THEOR- okay sorry

I'm sure the Nintendo-only Project X Zone spiritual successor of-sorts was fake all this time. But can't man dream for one minute?
And yes, this is a stealth "Sonic and Pac-Man for PxZ3" post.

There's not much information available about this game yet. It's only got two trailers so far, and one of them's not even on the same channel as the one I posted above.

It's definitely an Indie game, but it's hard to say if they have any well-known voice actors on the project or not yet.

Do you ever wish that something you are a fan of actually had no fanbase because the fans you find and talk to online are all horrible?
Godzilla fan here.

I say this as a fan but Godzilla is one of the most overrated characters when it comes to vs. debating. Godzilla is nowhere to even being in the top 10 most powerful characters in fiction.

Switch 2 Leaks are hilarious cause the reveal's gonna happen and it'll look the exact same as the Switch, but bigger.
It’s eerily similar to WiiU after Wii. Nintendo is really going to have to prove to us why we should not think Switch 2 is just another upgraded Switch. There better be some killer games. WiiU had a crazy ton of new features but next to no system seller games.

Nope. I don’t let low skill low IQ keyboard warriors affect my enjoyment of a game or community. Only the weak allow that.

Dragon Ball is my favorite franchise and 80% of English-speaking online discussion is filled with people who don't understand a manga for 10 year olds.

It's my burden to bear.

I feel you. This is me with Godzilla.

The fanboys treats him as the most powerful character in fiction comparable to the likes of DC and Marvel.

Speaking of Fanbase illiteracy, it is crazy how Smash was meant to be a "celebration of gaming" with thousands of franchises being repped in some form, and then the fanbase just plays the same 3 games over and over while getting mad that a critically acclaimed series that they haven't played gets a character.

Thank God they haven't announced a new Smash yet.

We're officially 50 days out from Pokemon day. There are 50 Mega Evolutions (including Primal Reversions). So leading up to February 27th I'm bringing the Kalos Countdown back, starting with Mega Venusaur!

How do you show Venusaur's reached the peak of its power? Stick a flower on its ass :4pacman:
Yeah like- even though I am fond of flowers in general, I thought Mega Venusaur looked just a little too similar to the OG variant. Then again, Venusaur is quite a complex design in general. Certainly more complicated in design than "lizard with wings and flamey tail" or "big turtle with cannons".

That said, Mega Venusaur was a competitive menace, so be careful who you call ugly in middle school.

You clearly forgot about the TCG-exclusive Mega Sachiko

You should've started a day earlier :upsidedown:
