Nintendo Announces Major Move Change For Pokémon

Williamsburg Brooklyn (BFN) Folks at Nintendo today unveiled more information regarding the upcoming Pokémon games for the Nintendo Switch. They announced various Galarian forms of Pokémon such as Zigzagoon and its evovolved form Linoone.

The most surpising one seems to be both Koeffing and Weezing getting this treatment. The new forms are gray colour versions of themselves donning mustaches and top hats. They have also gained Fairy as a secondary type.

Nintendo also announced in this new form that their trademark move Smog will be changed to Smug. Not much is known but it is speculated this move will have an air of superiority and may pair well with an IPA beer.

Pokémon Sword and Shield are set to be released this November 15th for the Nintendo Switch.

‘Swatting’ to be added to 2020 Tokyo Olympics

UPDATE (10:49 a.m): Due to recent events involving Fortnite Champion Kyle “bugha” Giersdorf, we here at Bottomfeeder News would like to emphasize that we do not condone swatting of anykind as it is a deplorable act of violence and can lead to horrible consequences. Whether it be gamer or fly or mosquito or bumblebee or horsefly or gnat or regular bee or hornet, or even a firefly (lightning bug). Swatting should no be celebrated and the IOC should take a long look in the mirror before proceeding.

Mothers Abode (BFN) With the 2020 Olympic games staged in Tokyo right around the corner, it seems that the International Olympic Committee  (IOC) has decided to add another event to the lineup.It was just released that there will be a new event will make its way to the summer games with Swatting being the newest addition.

For those unaware, Swatting is a popular activity on the internet where an individual will live stream themselves playing a game (usual on a platform like T****h or Y****be (no free ads)) and unaware to it someone watching the stream will call in some kind of threat that would prompt police presence at the live streamers place of residence.

The IOC has always looked for a way to incorporate the growing popularity of Esports to their historic games.

Very little has been released in terms of competition and a scoring system. Head of social media, Conard Mane put out a release stating :

We are very pleased to annouce Swatting as our new event for the 2020 Olympics games. We are excited to include those competitor gladiators of the mouse and keyboard. We are still in the early stages but we will announce in the coming weeks all the details surrounding the event.

 

No word yet on how public perception will look torwards the gaming community as another governing body involves themselves with it.

More on this story as it develops.

Devil May Cry 5 Demo Shows the Franchise Needs a Name Change

At this years Gamescom they showcased a demo for the latest game in the Devil May Cry franchise, Devil Mar Cry 5. The series seems to have gotten much hipper and younger with the word Yo being used three times in the openning scene.

Seen below is a 15 minute demo for Devil May Cry 5 being played on an Xbox One X. Our first impression is that the game is due for a name change given the contents of the demo.

With the beating those enemies took from Nero Dante Nero, they should rename it Demons Will Cry.

Cloud Responds to ‘Stealing Fans’ Accusation

Last week fan favorite Pokemon character Greninja, took to twitter to accuse Cloud Strife of Final Fantasy fame for using his appearance in Super Smash Bros Ultimate to steal fans. Both characters appeared in Super Smash Bros for the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS. They are also set to appear in the upcoming game.

There was finally a response as Cloud Strife took to the social media platform, Twitter to defend his addition to the franchise. In a series of tweets he rejects the accusations made last week by Greninja and calls them flat out false.

Cloud also goes on to give advice to anyone who may complain about him joining the Super Smash Bros community.

Many on Twitter and in the Nintendo community believe that the last tweet was a subtle insult at Greninja. Users online are pointing to the hashtag “gen6barginbin”, which many believe was an insult towards Greninja. This is due because his first appearance in the Pokemon franchise was in Pokemon X & Y which are the sixth generation of Pokemon games.

What is unclear is Cloud stating that anyone complaining or accusing him of stealing fans “should go to Fortnite”. He seems to imply that there is a correlation between individuals in the gaming community that whine about stealing fans and who also are involved in Fortnite.

For now, it looks like Cloud has put the accusations to rest and will enjoy his Super Smash fame as well as all the popularity he had with the Final Fantasy franchise way before Greninja was even a concept.

It will be interesting to see if Greninja has a response to any of Clouds tweets. As always check in at BFN for any new developments to this and all stories.
