The Pokemon thread

[Silver_Wolf]

There is already a ton of fanart for them on deviantart.

Oh you silly artists.
Although this pic is kinda epic.

[Sergalfag]

The colors are nice, but the artist totally bitched out when he went with one-point perspective.

[Silver_Wolf]

I wonder what the shiny versions will look like? Reversed colors maybe?

Dammit. Why does Reshiram have to look like that? They could remove the fur there or flatten it? Talk about unfortunate implications...

[Water]

The awkward tuft of fur is pretty bad, but what really bothers me are Reshiram's action-figure legs.

Does it ever walk with those?

[Silver_Wolf]

Well, it's arms are wings so I think it could just fly everywhere.

[Guyperson]

I can't wait to see the following:

New youngster sprite
New vendor trash rodent
New bird you only catch knowing you'll get fly later on
New first bug pokemon you quickly shove in your bawks after evolving
And new HM you regret even picking up

Also I still say Zekrom's tail looks like a slowbro's shelldertail.

[Saria]

oh, i was talking about the whole series


and i don't really like either of the new legendaries, mostly because they don't have that "pokemon feel", like torizo said earlier. i'm not a fan of the new, more humanoid pokemon they've been churning out recently. they kind of get rid of the point of pokemon for me. that, and that the legendaries look like pokemon rebuilt from other pokemon. when i saw reshiram, i immediately thought zoroak :I

What's wrong with Jynx and Mr Mime?

I agree that a lot of the newer Pokemon seem rather overdesigned, though.

Also, what's the chance of HMs being replaced by something less annoying? Now that would be a welcoming change.

[Fooflyer]

well gee what are you going to do? Make another tortoise. Yeah, real original with that one. Oh lets just put some cannons on that motherfucker for good measure. No one will ever know.

Because change is bad, kids.

[Plasma]

New vendor trash rodent
New bird you only catch knowing you'll get fly later on
New first bug pokemon you quickly shove in your bawks after evolving

Well gosh, what astounding predictions you're making Guyperson! Next, maybe you'll tell us about how Tsutaja will be the first Pokemon listed in the Isshu Pokedex!

Also, what's the chance of HMs being replaced by something less annoying? Now that would be a welcoming change.

I think the whole point on HMs is that they're meant to encourage having a more diverse team... or something.
Quite frankly, the Genius Sonority Pokemon games (aka: Colosseum and XD) showed that keeping them out entirely works perfectly well!

[Fooflyer]

HM's were invented by the man to keep us down. Don't you know anything?

[DoNotDelete]

Metal Gear?!

But he doesn't have a cannon between his legs.

[Torizo]

I finished EV training Ho-oh last night, and I just decided to level it up (71) to see how many points it would gain from it. It hadn't leveled up at all while I was EV training.

HP +4
Atk +52
Def +2
SAtk +2
SDef +3
Speed +46

I cried a little.

[lyra/dicks]

I was reading up on the new legendaries when I saw Reshiram is the cover for Pokemon Black, and Zekrom the cover for Pokemon White.

HAHAHAHAWHAT.

Other than that, new legendaries are cool.

[hotb]

Because a black pokemon on a black background would look awesome

[Cori]

I think it's cool that they're switching what legendaries appear on each cover.

It makes for better contrast than, say, that PURE WHITE FLUFFY INNUENDO on a WHITE background.


Also fffffffffZekrom's Slobro tail.
