I've never played a pokemon game. Is it a tactical RPG like FF Tactics?

It's a turn-based RPG game where you can assemble a team of up to six monsters and battle NPCs or other human players. Most battles are fought by one monster at a time on either side, but the newer games have double and triple battles as well.

Every monster has one or two elemental types associated with them that determine their strengths and weaknesses, in addition to each monster learning different moves and having a different stat spread. Sometimes they can evolve into a stronger monster when they get enough experience points or under other circumstances.

Basically, you play as someone who wants to be the best trainer and collect badges and beat the elite trainers of your region.

Never been a fan of the beach, unless it's an unknown fishing spot.

What a waste of being Australian.

What a waste of being Australian.

Australian beach goers are the worst dickheads in this country. I'm a bush man, give me the open countryside, red dirt, rock formations etc.

Shove the salty douchebag magnet up your ass. Also fuck sharks.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

I'd be more worried about blue-ringed octopuses than sharks. Sharks are at least big and easy to spot.

 

[CiG]

Yeah they're fucking brutal little bastards.

 

[dwellerINTHEdark]

I live in the shark bite capital of the world, but these sharks are small and nobody ever dies. I concede, you guys got the deadly fuckers.

 

[CiG]

Actually you're statistically just as likely to get fucked with by a shark as you are a blue-ring here.

 

[dwellerINTHEdark]

The price you pay for having some of the best surf breaks in the world I guess.

 

[EspaDa]

wow dude, i haven't got it yet (new phone arrives tomorrow wooooooooooot) but that sounds like a hell of a catch.

Yeah, look at this mate. All these fuckers are the crops of spending 30 minutes in the city centre. I also hatched Ekans and Sandshrew.

 

[SentinelSlain]

Some of my coworkers came into work energy drinked up to their eyeballs the day after that came out, after playing it all night. Cutesies.

 

[EspaDa]

This game is nothing special but still enticing as hell. Weird. The only thing that bothers me about it is the fact it's so fucking mainstream now, lots of people play it because the others do it, most of them don't even know shit about pokemon, basic facts like that fire is effective for grass or ground for poison.

 

[Carpe Mortem]

I think I'd really dig Australia. I wanted to be a herpetologist when I was a kid and love both desert and ocean. All to be had in abundance there.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

You're statistically more likely to be attacked by a man. Men are the most dangerous animal of all. #killallmen

Lol, so I guess there are elitists even in the world of children's entertainment.

Aquatic serial killers are no laughing matter.

 

[EspaDa]

Yeah, cause I was interested in pokemon when I was a kid. Most of these people playing Pokemon Go are just trend followers.

 

[Carpe Mortem]

^I share your elitism. It pisses me off when people don't have an appreciation for selective breeding too. Like bitch why the fuck do you have four of the same Pokemon right now, transfer that shit and just level up one.

Or the people with multiple vaporeons. Fucking transfer them and use the candy to get another eevolution.

 

[Internally Deformed]

I loathed Pokemon when I was a kid. Does this make me cooler or less cool than you guys?

 

[Carpe Mortem]

They clearly don't understand what 'gotta catch em all' actually means.
