Yeah, I've never understood the hate for that guy. I suppose you can never satisfy fans...

The guy putting the memes in doesn't translate the Pokemon games anymore.

And before you start celebrating, he was the one responsible since RBY for the games not talking down on you. Without him, BW could possibly read like something out of Barney. D:

I hope he didn't get fired for using the memes. That'd be lame.

Re: CoroCoro Discussion Thread (Current Issue: August 2010)

Why would he get fired for that? There are countless text-heavy Nintendo games that feature nods to memes and pop culture references.


Also, I like shorts. They're comfy and easy to wear.

How many scans are there ATM? I got nine right now.

Also, do I see a Rubick's Cube on N's belt?

I thought it was a Millenium Puzzle, of sorts. (No, seriously.) Uh yeah, I think it is one of them cube things.

Dammit! Late to the party again...
Anyway, the eagle looks epic, but shame it's normal/flying. And Coromori looks awesome too. What else was shown in the scans??
What is this "Coromori" you speak of?

If anything, they probably told him to step-down (sorta) from that position because supposedly he lurked forums a lot (SomethingAwful I heard), and it might lead to information leakage?

Re: CoroCoro Discussion Thread (Current Issue: August 2010)

And when I said Kaworu was the final boss last time everyone made fun of me. That smile and that stance... it creeps me out.

>.> Seriously this guy just reeks of a friendly character who turns out to be the evil guy.

He actually struck me right away as the champion (or someone with a similar role, given we still don't know the game's structure). They always seem to appear all over the place before you finally fight them, after all.

Sorry I haven't looked at the most recent thread pages, but is it confirmed that the blond girl is named "Beru" and that the name isn't actually part of the word "raibaru"/"rival? Because to me all I can see is "baru."

I really, really doubt it - you have to change the vowel, and that's a huge stretch for a pun in any language. It's far more likely that she's just named "Belle".

Minezumi looks to be a scouter chipmunk. Its got its hand up blocking the sun and looking into the distance.

That would make sense - "mi" can mean "see" or "look", and its eyes are definitely the focal point of its design.

--------

I'm still liking all these new ones (though Wargle has the most unfortunate portmanteau name in recent memory), and the human characters look awesome. But I think the biggest thing is the exclusive areas: I was going to get White Version, but Black City really has me second-guessing that. XP

So hey, douche rival, I've been waiting for that.

He's got a sweet Millennium item, too.

Most people think green-haired guy is the main rival, but Cheren and Belle could be side rivals.

Re: CoroCoro Discussion Thread (Current Issue: August 2010)

Belle might be more of a minor rival character keen to Dawn/Lucas or Lyra/Ethan.

While "N" and Cheren might be the more major rivals; Cheren being the more nice one similar to May/Brendon or Wally while N might be the more jerkish one similar to Gary or Silver.


Edit: Rainbowsaurs, Pokebeach and Serebii exist for a reason you know.

Re: CoroCoro Discussion Thread (Current Issue: August 2010)

and who's Belle...

Belle = Beru. It's the most likely intention for the name.

Also, after much squinting, I made out "Type: Dragon" next to Kibago. Not really surprising (and given I haven't read all the recent pages yet, maybe old news), but there you go.

I'll take Cheren as my rival since he looks like Kyon.

I still think that Ononokusu is the pseudo-legendary, and that Kibago becomes it (although, much less exists to support this position than when the supposed name for Kibago was "Namakusu").

And Kibago's typing has not been confirmed, so if you saw it, then good for you. You might be the first, which would be surprising considering that scans of it are floating about.

Green hair guy's got an ultra-douchey "I am the messiah" look.

Come to think of it, not only does he have a Millennium item, he has Yami hair too.

Oh, the fanart will have fun with this.

Re: CoroCoro Discussion Thread (Current Issue: August 2010)

Cheren seems more like an Elite Four member. Kinda like Flint, Aaron, and Lucian combined. I hope he is merely an Elite Four member (for as such he looks), and that he is not the Champion; I also hope that he doesn't end up as a main rival who gets a rival starter: he just looks too weird.

He just looks too weird: that's my reason as to why he shouldn't amount to much. But his picture is already floating about, so it seems he'll be a big deal... *sigh.*

EDIT: hey guys, I started this Millennium item deal, so credit where it is due. ME.

you know, you may be onto something. at first, i thought N was the evil leader, but he could be the champion....or both...

and, this may be a stretch, but something in my gut is telling me that cheren is the champion. like, he might be downplayed for the whole game and show up a few times, then, blam! he's the champion.
