Then how come Pichu, Ceffa, Igglybuff, Togepi, Buneary, and Budew don't look sad?

Because some of their species don't have to undergo an involuntary sex change when they evolve?

And this is the true reason why Azurill is always sad.

 

[direelite]

I'm wondering if the pokeradar is going to make a return. The grass in the video seems more diamondish then the original black and white. And with the rare spots already in BW, it could make sense atleast as an item that made finding rare spots quicker/easier

 

[Crimson_Blazer]

White and black kyurem's sprites are epic. The way they charge up looks sick AF

 

[Mav-san]

I think it's starting to get real the fact that White Kyurem and Black Kyurem will exist as "two different Pokémon". Do not like.

I wasn't aware you spoke with Azurills about their thoughts on changing their sex?

Closed-minded person says what?

I think (read: hope) they will feel like two very different pokemon but still be Kyurem.

I think we can all agree that having genitals involuntarily changed into those of the opposite gender would be extraordinarily painful and psychologically disturbing.

Can we please stop talking about Azurill penises and vaginas, now?

No, because even though the OP was doing so in jest, this is a grand opportunity to demystify something...

The keyword I took issue with is "involuntary". In species where sequential hermaphroditism is applicable, the change is neither "involuntary", "extraordinarily painful" nor "psychologically disturbing". It is natural and, if there is any pain, probably less painful (and psychologically damaging) than childbirth is.

Sex change for humans is a completely different process as well. The more you know.

1. Yap, it's a Minccino
2. No, he is not a Ranger. It's a Supah Hero. c:

Fair enough...

 

[Trainer Frankie]

That stage I saw in the trailer. That was the professor right? It reminded me of either a gym stage or frontier stage.

What are your thoughts on that stage with the professor?

idk the people cheering and the dramatic entrance confuses me so much

 

[Mav-san]

I wonder about the possibility of the starters getting their Hidden Abilities from the start.

 

[Trainer Frankie]

Wasn't there a stage in the Battle Frontier of the last Gen? That's what I thought of.

Professor's actually a brain. OoO

 

[Lorde]

What are your thoughts on that stage with the professor?

Is he really a professor, though? Because when I mentioned that he was a professor, I got flamed and people told me he was just a researcher (apparently there's a distinction). Either way, I'm very fond of his design. I also hope he's secretly working for the villainous team. And I'm still hoping that we can walk with our Pokemon in these games.

 

[Tommyb2405]

could you get Unova Pokemon with DW abilities? would be cool if they added them in, if you couldnt already. I know its probably a stupid question but... Will The Route Numbers Stay The Same? or will the route after the Home City be Route 1?

 

[Trainer Frankie]

What bugs me is that hidden abilities a lot of the time seem they they could work for normal pokemon. Like darmanitan's...he seems to be based on a daruma, yet he only gets the ability that can turn him into one as his hidden ability. I know the ones at Relic Castle get the ability, but an ability like that I think should be possible for all of them.

I do like the crazy hidden abilities like marill getting sap sipper. ^^

Sorry, I thought it was confirmed he was a professor.

i recon the route will bw added on unles the others were destroyed

Does want, though probably not.

Hmm, that's a possibility, though I doubt they'd reveal a Brain amongst all of these early-game characters, even if we don't find out until later.

They made his being evil so obvious, I kinda want him to "reveal" himself as evil early game, and then actually be a good guy later on.

The Routes will likely retain their old names. There's no reason for them not to.

 

[Royal_Qeca]

The 4th KIRA, again, he is not the regional professor.
