These new Pokemon will Sirfetch a good price.

I'm torn. On the one hand, it's great to see you suggesting taggers, Athers, after quite a while! On the other... a couple of us are trying to go into Pokémon SS as blind as possible, and keep the magic of discovery alive. I'd managed to avoid seeing Sirfy until I saw your avatar, which wasn't ideal. On the third hand, I know about it now, and the other person I'm aware of has already retweeted Sirf material...
I don't think I can be so blatant as to put your suggestions up, I'm afraid - but perhaps I can put a more subtle hint. But please can you not to do this again with other new Pokémon until after launch? Game Freak systematically spoils a lot of their menagerie, but the rest of us don't have to help them.

Unrelated to the point raised there, but the current tagline is just wrong, geese are miserable creatures IRL.
Playing as a goose will be infinitely more fun than playing as a duck though, natch.

Balla, I think if you're hoping to avoid spoilers by not putting Athers' taglines up, not reading this post about the taglines, and not looking at the avatar image... that Sirship has Sirsail'd!

It's long sailed for me. I'm hoping other people can stay on dry land, and that no further Pokéships sail from my harbour until launch!
...did that sound dirty? I'm worried it sounded dirty.

I trust the new avatar will sort out blatant spoilers? A smirking beak can't be any harm aye?
As for the taglines, keep em in the shed if you want, I just wanted to be ahead of the leek for once. Inspiration zebstrikas but once, it cannot be sirfetch'd on command!
You can keep that last for free too. Turns out I wasn't out of Vilepuns after all!
Seriously though I've no issues if you want to keep them in the shed for release though.

Beak's sufficiently cryptic I think! And yep, we'll stuff them in the RAINBOW SUPER TAGLINE BACKLOG for use after launch.

I'm expecting a fair few SnS (love that I can use Monster Hunter nomenclature to refer to Pokémon ) taglines come the time of its release, so they'll be kept safe for future use, Athers.

The dog one comes from this post and we really would like to read other people's answers to those questions! The current tagline is a variant on the dog one because Blizzard have been doing bad things lately. I mean, even worse than their usual Kotick-inspired nickel-and-diming.

Sword/Shield official Pokemon reveal spoilers:
My Little Ponyta Can't Possibly Be This Cute!?
Not as meme-able as Sword's exclusive I'm afraid, but hey two memes in one ain't half bad eh. Although you have to be a mega weeb to get the second reference/meme.

That's cheeky.
Will probably still use it. Or a variant.
EDIT: Since the previous tagline is going to be relevant for a while yet, I decided to put this one up for a bit and come back to Smurf's. Hope that's okay Papa Smurf.
