They used a video camcorder to record a game on TV (And Mojo King Bee's stage is really dark, you can see them adjusting contrast and brightness to try and make it a little better), so the quality will tend to be lousy.

But still, it's something like 600 button presses in a roughly 4 minute period of time when you combined Guitar and Defense sequences... I can tell you right now, my fingers cannot achieve those speeds.

So that thing about Pokemon attacks being special or physical depending on the actual attack is true. Take THAT over-used and cheap Pokemon.

True. ANd I usually don't import teams anywho. But a lotta pokemon won't be normalized, they'll be NERFED. NOrmal, f'rinstance. Without a good special stat, which they lack, hyper beam is DEAD. And thats the best normal ability.

Body slam causes paralis which makes it still usefull. Frustration or return can be powerful, and don't cause a turn of delay. Umm, but I'm not sure if they'll be special or normal. Double Edge is still great if you have the hitpoints. Mega Kick too.

And I'm gonna get a Hitmonchan and be happy.
Hey, the comic seems to be updating kind of regularly. Maybe we should vote to spread the word.

Don't worry, if the Bison ever take over the midlands Godzilla will take care of them. Just like he did with Bambi.

Hitmonchan is gonna rule all, the Normal Types that got dark moves are gonna have a huge boost.

Alakazam is gonna be scarey....Hyper Beam as a Special Based move

Umbreon would be better if it actually LEARNED some good dark moves.

Also Shadow Ball's a move it could desperatly use. (without having to resort to a TM)

Tyranitar has always been a beast. Shit, I bred some which knew any four of the following five attacks:
Crunch
Rock Slide
Earthquake
Fire Blast
Surf (FREAKING SURF! FOR A ROCK TYPE!)

This nukes, like, 90% of all the weaknesses Tyranitar has. Fighting types are still a huge problem, but, yeah.


Oh, and for Ryus earlier comment? Designers do test their games, primarily to tweak details. A result of this is that they get a sort of skewed perspective of what someone new to the game will think. Like, whether they will enjoy it, or understand what the hell is going on.

um.... just how exactly is this different than it was done before? I kinda thought that was what they were doing already. I mean, I knew the elemental punches were a special attack and all, but really, whats the deal?

Ah, see, before it depended on the elemental of the attack as opposed to the actual attack. So all fire type attacks depended on special. This will probably remain the case, but instead of checking the value of the elemental when loading an attack, the game will check some boolean value within the attack which determines whether the attack is physical or special.

Understand?

ha. so does this mean that the game will see an elemental/physical attack and give it a synergetic boost to its attack?
