Today I’m bringing you a new Cover Pokémon Showdown. Perhaps rather unsurprisingly, Charizard won Generation One with 37% of the total votes!
Now it’s time to move onto Johto.
Generation II came out in 1999 in Japan and featured three games, namely Gold, Silver and Crystal. This generation introduced many new features such as Shiny Pokémon and the Dark and Steel type.
Pokémon Gold Version
Pokémon Gold featured Ho-Oh, the Rainbow Pokémon. Ho-Oh is often named the “guardian of the skies”.
Ho-oh is a bird-like Pokémon which resembles a phoenix, leaving a beautiful rainbow behind when it flies. It has a mythical power to resurrect the dead, which can be seen in one of the episodes of Pokémon Generations.
Its signature move is Sacred Fire, a strong damage-dealing move. Ho-oh was the first Generation II Pokémon that was seen in the anime, which was a sign that the franchise would continue after Generation I. Its name comes from ‘Hōō‘ (鳳凰), the Chinese word for phoenix.
Pokémon Silver Version
Pokémon Silver showed Lugia, the Diving Pokémon, on its cover. It is often referred to as the “guardian of the seas”. It’s also the trio master of the Legendary birds.
Lugia is a Pokémon that is able to control the weather, especially cause and stop storms. Because it knows it has that power, it hides itself underwater to prevent itself rising storms.
Its signature move is Aeroblast. Ho-oh and Lugia are the only Legendary mascot Pokémon that are not seen clashing with each other in the anime. Its name may come from ‘lutetium‘ (a silver element), ‘lugeo‘ (‘I lie dormant’ in Latin) or ‘luna‘ (‘moon’ in Latin).
Pokémon Crystal Version
Pokémon Crystal covered Suicune, the Aurora Pokémon. Suicune 
is the only Legendary beast to appear on a box art.
Suicune has the power to purify water with one touch. It travels the land searching for water to purify.
It is thought to be based on the Qilin, an Eastern legend that has traits of Chinese dragons, unicorns, deer and big cats. Its mane, however is said to resemble the northern aurora. Suicunes name is derived from ‘sui‘ (水, water) and ‘kun‘ (君, monarch).

X — EVAN
GF has a competition to design a completely new Pokémon, what would your Pokémon be based on, stat build(in its final form), ability, some of its movepool, etc.(whatever creative aspect you’d like to detail of your Pokémon)?
Grass/Psychic
Based on the Flatwoods Monster (look it up, it’s super spooky)
Two staged
First stage is pure psychic type and is a floating ball with lifeless eyes, stubby arms and legs, and a spade like enclosure around it.
Evolves at level 32
Evolution is basically just the flat woods monster. 7 feet tall with a red and black color scheme. The spade thing behind its head resembles a dark red leaf. It’s eyes are plain white with no pupils and its mouth is not usually unless it attacks. Opening its mouth releases a mist that makes the opponent uneasy.
It’s a physically defensive special attackervwith moderate speed and low ho and attack
It learns mostly special and status moves
Edit fixed the typos
O.o I was expecting a fairy from you. Lol Sounds amazing though.
I’ve had this idea for a while and I didn’t think Fairy fit it too well 😛
Do want a dragon/fairy but I was banking on Alolan dragonite there sooo
lol I’d like to see that, too. I feel like they should have done some more iconic gen 1 Pokémon, but shrug!
I want a dragon fairy more than any other type combination
Also, why isn’t there a ghost/fighting type yet? Cmon game freak!
Wait for Earthen
I’ve already memorised his one
Serathyl (Placeholder name lol)
Dark/Ghost
Ability: Prankster/Intimidate HA: Abyssal Heart
Abyssal Heart makes it so that dark moves are super effective to the Fairy type.
This Pokémon’s design would be based on a humanoid crow(kind of like a harpy or the ancient accounts of tengu)
This Pokémon would be a pseudo-legendary(Three staged, 1/30/50. Pure black feathers and dark grey talons. It’s shiny form would be a haunting pale green with black talons.
It would have high speed and attack, good defense and (slightly higher than def) S defense, but mediocre S attack and decent/okay health.
It would focus on physical attacks. It would have access to Flying moves as well since it’s pre-evolutions would be ghost/flying.
fairy/poison, fairy/dark don’t care what it is as long as its cute, too tired to try rn
What’s wrong, Prince? You alright?
my basement has been flooded for three days so I’m tired, its all good, I boxed up most of my stuff before the flood gates decided to hit my room
Floods!? Heavy rain?
no just normal rain, but after the hurricane I think something got blocked so more water than ever before has started to come in
Ahhh, I see. That’s too bad. Hopefully there’s no water damage. 🙂
no its all good i think but we have insurance I think

Eagaru (Eagle and Garuda) Based off of the Hindu god Garuda who is the mount for Vishnu. Would be a more chibi and cute version of the first image below.

Awesome!
I want a region based on India and Pakistan so bad.
India would be so awesome and if we didn’t get a true elephant there I would be sooooooo pissed! Lol
Totally agreed. We need an awesome elephant. Ground/Psychic?
That would would make the most sense. Do we have a ground/psychic type beside claydol?
I don’t thiiiiink so. Maybe make it Rock/Psychic so it’s a unique typing. (That hasn’t been used yet right?)
Ummm… I’m not sure tbh.
Lunatics I think
Lunatone*
Oh, duh lol
Solrock and Lunatone are Rock/Psychic
Damn.
Pestelle
Rock/Fire
Based off of a star and a pestele. It crushes things into powders and pastes in order to consume them easier and thus is incredibly powerful. According to myths, they crushed light and sprinkled them across the night skies. It’s rumored go come from meteorites due to being part of the same material. It’ll sometimes burn things first to make crushing them easier. It looks like a pestele with a thick turtle head on top and two flippers usually tucked in.
Rock Head as its Ability, Pure Power as its Hidden Ability
With a Fire Stone, it evolves into
Cosmortar
Rock/Fire
A mortar bowl made out of a splitted Meteor. It allows Pestelle to grind powders within them for high quality food for both parties, but if can also produce powder and pastes more inefficiently by burning things to ashes or by stomping on them repeatedly. Kinda looks like a mortar bowl crossed with a turtle. Their basin’s bottom is stained and due to the dark berries they consume and grind, and it looks like the night sky.
Has the normal ability Rock Head and the Hidden Ability ‘Fine Powder’, where the Pokémon’s powder attacks hit both opponents.
They learn powder moves, charging moves, volcanic moves, tremor based moves, and cosmic power as well as Meteor Mash.
Water/fighting
Based on Siamese fighting fish with the tail of a Swordtail fish
High attack and speed
Ability: Intimidate
Moves:
Aqua jet
Close combat
Sacred Sword
Aqua Tail
I have a TON of ideas
HELP
I have an important English test on the 24th and I live in Europe
Ded
What’s the prob?
SuMo comes out the 23rd
I don’t think you really have to study for an English test
You do
Literary techniques, quotes, etc
Are you still in high school? I never wanna see that in my life again
Sadly, only two years til uni though!
HS were the worst years of my life gosh
Just remember when you greet people in English you say ‘Hello’, not ‘Alola’
You noob, we say English to greet people m8 XD
Having an English test when you’re British is the worst
Play the game, break for test, then go back to playing the game. This is what you do lol
Study really hard days before the 23rd if you’re worried about it
The fact that alolan forms were supposed to be like the new mechanic to build off of this gen and we got like 6 and one of them is in a goddamn wig…
Yeah… Alola pokemon are kind of a disappointment to me.
I only love like 2 of them…
Let’s see Muk is my favorite and that’s kind of sad. XD
I like Ninetales and Sandslash
They showed the only good ones first. Ok well Marowak is freaking awesome too
yeah, I like that one too, raticate is ok, meowth is dead to me
It sucks because I see fan art of it that fixes it and makes it more like what it’s designed after. Alolan Persian looks like a child drew the real Alolan Persian
Muk is great man
Watch them be like “oh we were going to have Alolan dragonite but we couldn’t come up with a good design”
Flygon 2.0
I seriously hoped for Lapras
carrying a volcano on its back, ice/fire or water/fire
I was hoping for Dragon actually, Dragon/Ice
Imagine a flying type lapras. It could be a reference to mystery dungeon too!
OR FLYING TYPE DIGLETT ON A LITTLE CLOUD YOU CAN EVEN KEEP THE HAIR JUST PUT IT ON A CLOUD
Excuse you
Alolan Dugtrio is fab
girl
female
Woman
Iron man
Captain America
Donkey
Shrek
No, iron man as Fe=iron male. 😛
OHHHH
Lady
Une fille
Queen
Something I’d like to see Pokémon do: Make a full(3 evos) female only fighting type and a full ( ^ ) male only fairy type. Those two are both in the extremes of masculinity and femininity. I’d like to see those two move away from those themes. Maybe one day. 😛
Meinshao is kind of feminine, although it only has 2 evos
Really? I always say it’s gender neutral? Let me go look at it again.
The eyes always seemed feminine to me
Still looks neutral to me.
To each their own. It also just seems feminine because of the long sleeves, which is indicative of kimonos/Chinese operas to me
To me it reminds me of a master in a robe with those long sleeves. But, yeah, to each their own.
A clearly feminine fighting line would be cool though
At the very least it feels like a feminine dude
I love meinshao, its like my second fav fighting type behind tyrouge/hitmontop
That high jump kick is something to be feared
https://youtu.be/0xvcwkGpsSk
It seems Ash is getting his butt whupped 24/7 in Alola
Also That Bewear snapping trees like toothpicks
One final note I can’t decide if James will catch that Mimikyu or a Sandygast
They seem very likely and we all know Jessie will catch a Salandit
I’m thinking Sandygast so it can hug/crush him.
hopefully sandygast, although I thought he’d get Beware
Bewear also makes sense!
Way too powerful for those crooks
Besides they risk a golden running gag where that particular Bewear is “in love” with Team Rocket and tries to hug them at every opportunity and seldom follows them
Bewear+James= The return of the clingy joke
I wonder if Ash will have all three starters again or just one of them.
Seems like Ash has Rowlet… as I predicted.
THERES STILL HOPE FOR LITTEN
I’m think Ash will have a Litten at least I hope so!
it seems they are pushing this little tid bit with litten and ash alot maybe this is sinnoh again where ash gets 2 of the starters
I hope so! Plus that first leaked image of Incineroar made it feel that it was traveling with Ash and Mallow. And Mallow with a Litten seems odd, but who knows?
Not gonna lie I might like this new series a lot. Yes XYZ was nice as it brought on a serious tone that the show really hasn’t had ever, but I can dig a little slapstick comedy every now and then lol
when you have no hat to turn backwards
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/058d7fc4a43bb4b8d02f6d5002c2eb6775e1fd7f40b8346a73e7ebfafcc22930.png
Love it!
Ik we seen the actually shinies but i wanted to finish my tapu predictions so here my not so much predictions.. predictions
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/de348fb211477ab707780ee21c52b68326680733dcb15af72ac3b84229ca53d8.jpg
Why can’t that be the actual colors for tapu bulu
idk dont get me wrong i love the black, but i wanted more variety between the 4 with the colors. I tried to go with wood colors since they are like based around totems it looks like
I don’t like the yellow on the official design. Yours is way better.
the only one i would change is Tapu Lele
I actually like Tapu Lele’s a lot
wow. thanks lol it was the hardest one i had two versions https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3c9a37130cf263b5fdede1b806f3cc15c1492448636607e8ddcdf377fe0cad11.jpg
This one is pretty good too! the colors you used really draw to the eyes. I feel like I might get sucked into her gaze……kind of spoopy lol
I like shiny making, honestly gen 7 has alot of weak shinies like komala for example
Yeah they aren’t all the greatest unfortunately……the ones that I think are great are Pikipek’s final evo, Vikavolt, all of the Oricorio forms, Palossand, and Pyukumuku. Those are probably some of the best out of the bunch.
yea the starters are great too! but compared to gen 6 the shinies got bit lazy. its like they all ate pancakes or something
Minior is like the best shiny
Pyuku’s is ok
The spider , that one is perfect
I was hoping for Crystal Onyx to be Alolan.
Type: Ground
Ability: Crystaline, weak to fire immune to water.
Doesn’t evolve
Or maybe evolves into regular steelix
Or it could evolve into a Crystal Steelix?
If you see Mega Steelix, it has Crystal coming out of its body. I am against Alolan froms for mons that can Mega Evolve.
i rather they save those kinda things for special missions
Like those Pokemovies
Like I had an idea for you investigating a series of jungle locations where trouble has occurred and its revealed that an Oranguru stole a bunch of trainer’s Pokeballs and somehow is using them (Moon exclusive)
And its counterpart is a squadron of Passimion are causing ruckus and you must fight 5 hordes of them
I want to see a series of weekly missions that take you around the island to solve problems
That would be amazing tbh
I feel like rock/steel makes more sense for something crystalline
What Alola form were you hoping for(Kanto only)? Alola Alakazam as a Psychic/Ghost.
Nido’s doesnt matter what type
Alolan Seel line Water/Rock (maybe you could do something with seels and dewgongs had to break through rocks to navigate the alolan sea so its horn got bigger and stronger and it grew a rocky formation around it? )
That wouldn’t work
The only one I kinda wanted to see was my Tropical Grass/Flying Vileplume
The tropical climate affected its petals making them larger then ever but thinner, and strong winds cause them to be blown into the sky and using their petals they can glide down, years of practice allow Alolan Vileplume to whisk themselves into the air to absorb more sunlight and spread their seeds and spores
A simple logical idea
I like that, but if u could come up with a cool logical reason for a alolan dewgong (your type choice)
Well let’s take the region into question
Super warm waters on a Arctic faring marine Pokemon
Does not mix
The most obvious is that they adjusted to warmer waters losing its ice type
But something like that why bother with a form
I dunno maybe they sprout additional legs to hunt on beaches
lol imagine one with legs
Water/Psychic. These Seel are strong swimmers due to their ability to manipulate the waves in their favor. Alola Seel and Dewgong create large waves because they like to watch people and Pokémon surf. Something like that? Migration could be a factor or they could literally just be cousins to regular Seel/Dewgong?
I mean if vulpix can adapt to cold climates why cant a dewgong adapt to warm
I don’t see why not. Pokemon doesn’t have to follow real world logic though I wish that Raichu’s was not so mysterious.
ITS THE PANCAKES I TELL YOU
ITS NOT MYSTERIOUS ITS DOWNRIGHT LAZY
Like i said selective breeding in order to have Pikachu on the island causing brain growth because the brain is a pulsing wad of electrical meat
Poor OG Raichu is better looking and will still be inferior.
Would have loved this
I too, Vileplume is a long time favorite
Mainly because of that plastic Tomy Vileplume I had as a kid
Looks like we agree on one Pokémon at the least
Vileplume is amazing
Awesome :3
I just love it’s design
I was really hoping for a mermaid jynx tbh
You should’ve gone for a Psychic/Grass Jynx
But even that makes trouble since I would see Jynx retreat to icy northern caves to avoid the heat…
But maybe Jynx had to endure hardships of the land and retreat to shady jungles where they communed with plant life developing a mental link
And the natives taught them dance moves I dunno too many factors
no. I wanted a mermaid jynx
Then explain in depth
i don’t have to. but if you really want an explanation you can go watch Jwitz video on possible alolan forms, he included it in there.
I saw that and that was nothing more then a resin wish list
Very little facts behind them
Alolan Dragonite Dragon/Fairy or Dragon/Water
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xvcwkGpsSk
Unpopular opinions about SuMo?
Alolan Dugtrio and Persian are perf
Incineroar > Litten
The Fairy type amount is fine, they’re obviously trying to show its a common type and are playing catch up (will be annoyed if it carries on to Gen 8 tho)
i understand fairy types being used alot. its a new type so we need variety of them, but im hoping we dont see another grass/fairy for awhile lol
Kinda agreed, would like our first Fire/Fairy before our sixth of Grass or five of Water/Fairy
people thought Tapu Bulu was gonna be fire/fairy lol
I was ;-;
i did too because like i thought the colors match the type.
but its ability seems like its gonna be a pain lol
Stronger horn leech plus healing each turn
Ded
At least it heals your Pokémon too
Better stock up on Poison Jabbers
is it only for tapu bulu or will it heal ur other mon in doubles
Grassy Terrain heals all Pokémon on the field that aren’t levitating or flying
oh ok thanks, im not good at abilities lol
It’s fine, we all have Pokémon weaknesses
Mines is pronunciation
I don’t
Savant!!!!!!!!
I would’ve loved it because then it would be weak
To Ground maybe, besides that it’d be a wonderful type
Just stop….just stopppppppupupppp
There is ten bloody new Faries and half are faux legends until proven otherwise
And all of them are just going to be a pain…
What do you mean faux legendary
They’re obviously legendary or some new variant of it
I mean we don’t know if we can officially classify them as Legendary or Mythical Pokemon at this point
So saying it prematurely is unwise, but we’ll know in 2-3 weeks
They seem to be one of a kind, are encountered in dungeons and have plot relevance
Like I said in 2 weeks (Maybe 2 1/2 to compile data)
or maybe it will leak
I can agree with the Dugtrio one
agree on the last part
I dunno, Persian seems a bit….to flat out for me, you know?
As flat as it’s face :p
My point exactly
I know but I just find it endearing :p
BUt it’s head is the complete opposite of flat.. it’s an INFLATED balloon! Hahahaa…haa…uhm *cough*
I agree with one of these. 😛
Glad to see more Alolan Persian fans!
Shush you! 😛
:p
I like Alolan Raichu, Its pretty cool
As a Raichu fan Alolan Raichu is a gift ;-;
Alolan raichu is beautiful and I’m going to use it as well as all three starters on my first run through. Not sure who the last two spots on my team will go though. Any suggestions? New and old Pokemon welcome
Sweet perfect little bread loaf.
Here here! SuMo HYPE!
Alola Ryhorn the Volcanic Deity pokemon
Fire/Ground
With an Ability that nullifies water dmg/causes burn on chance of contact since it’s too hot to handle. I’d like to see that happen. I’m surprised Rhydon didn’t get any love in Sun and Moon since it was the first ever Pokémon iirc.
This Groudon, sorry Rhyhorn of yours seems a bit weak
.
.
to itself
Eh, I just like Rhydon a lot.
Groudon too?
Groudon is alright.
The similarities between your suggestion and primal groudon is basically evrything except the stats
Eh, those primal forms were also weak concepts tbh.
I liked them, made the climatic legendary battle harder and made the weather trio feel relevant again since other Pokémon got their ability and the abilities got nerfed
Poor Kyogre…
I never understood why Ninetails got Drought. It never made any sense.
The love for Rhydon is that it gets Horn Leech
a man can dreamThis is literally Primal Groudon lol
Lol Type Null is literally Arceus
But it looks much weaker tbh
True but Null is probably a hint to Gen 4 remakes as well
So a Pokémon’s whole existence has to be a nod at a remake for it to matter? lol A pokémon can be similar to another pokémon and still exist. I just wanted to see the Rhydon line get some attention.
Bring back seasons
Keep seasons, and night and day. 😀
A bunch of gym badge design ideas for fairy type

I like the star cloud one near the top left
The one in the bottom left corner looks very nice and fitting for fairy. :3
I got a better idea wanna hear it?
Ye
I don’t think you want to
nvm i just looked at the context lol
First you draw two full moons (draw some lines to indicate light)
Then why not a have two shimmering lightrays from the moon’s middle center touching a horizontal crescent shaped moon
http://orig00.deviantart.net/9372/f/2016/308/0/c/primarina_by_kawiku-dan91f0.png
Very pretty lol
Pretty ugly!!!
ARKARKARRKKARKARKH!!!!!!
Good one…………..*sigh*
Well, said by someone who is picking that tiger…
You mean that devilishly sexy bastard?
http://t01.deviantart.net/CIzWGKI6eDcHXiixBNL-sYl4aFY=/fit-in/700×350/filters:fixed_height(100,100):origin()/pre01/5049/th/pre/i/2016/307/8/1/incineroar_by_wargreymon43-dan6l94.png
Definitly pretty. -.-‘ Enjoy your fire/fight…mm dark starter with no neck and huge hands
He’ll treat ya right
It may treat me with its uglyness but it will not treat Primarina for sure.
If Incineroar learns Thunderpunch Primarina is doomed
Primarina looks faster tbh for real
I agree with you that it LOOKS faster, but I don’t think it will be faster in the end.look at litten’s stats https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/faa2d60abcb24e35cd5423b7bb669e9ac5e4df0d368645ccd4c38c88593c7c20.jpg
That is clearly a naive nature, but Incineroar will be the fastest of the three imo. Primarina is a wall and it does not need great speed for sure. These stats would be perfect:
80/65/100/100/115/70
Deciduye is going to be the fastest,and also the frailest
Primaria is going to be bulky,with high special attack
Incineroar will have very high attack,with average bulk and speed
Decidueye will not be the fastest imo. Consider that Rowlet has at least 67 base HP (so Decisueye will have more then 100 hp cause there is not a single starter who had a base stat over 60 which did not become at least 100 in its final form) and in Pokemon history there is not a single pokemon (excluding Mega, Legends and Slaking who all have more then 600 base stats) who has more then 100 base hp and more then 95 base speed.
Yeak, you wished. Thunder punch has 70 bp and it’s not even a stab. Do you really think it can kill a wall pokemon?
What about primarina easly resisting it and using hydro pump on a porr sp. def?
I see Primarina having 60 base stat in defense
From E3 we saw popplio having 15 in both def/sp. def/sp.att. Popplio is a defensive pokemon with great sp. att poor speed and attack
We’ll see in 15 days
We will 🙂
I love Primarina and I am hoping its strong, In fact I am using it in my first play through instead of Incineroar. I think Incineroar is the new Greninja and I am hoping it will be in Uber, but that depends on its HA. If Incineroar gets Sheer Force, Primarina will be fried and served with tartar sauce.
Starters will probably get new abilities, so no sheer force imo. Primarina will probably get access to Aurora Veil. Litteraly there’s nothing the tiger can do to it.
No way. Decidueye is totally set to be the “next greninja” meaning he’s going to get the most publicity this gen. Lately there seems to always be one that gets more shine that the other two
I see primarina having high special atk and speed, so a hydro pump or even a bubble beam would finish off incineroar who probably has high defense istead of special
Primarina looks faster tbh
i didnt mean this for you
No it doesn’t the thing has no legs
It looks sleeker, I guess that’s why it looks faster.
Sleeker doesn’t mean mobility
Serperior has no legs either *raises eyebrows*
Dude snakes are effing fast some which can reach 12mph
seals are fast under water, so maybe it’ll float close to the ground on land?
You can’t have it super bulky and super fast there’s got to be a breaking point
It’s most likely specially defensive with decent defense but below average attack and Hp and piss poor speed
maybe you’ve got a point there
I always have the point
not this time, you forgot the point/full stop.
True, it has no legs, but that’s how my human brain works I guess. Sleeker body=faster
Its a glorious beast
You just convinced me to pick Decidueye (that’s three grass starters in a row)
Love it! Lol
Well cmon don’t do that.
The prettiest starter by far
Sooooo……..unless it’s fake (which it could very well be) it sounds like a Gamestop has gotten a shipment of Sun and Moon and one of the employees is contemplating leaking ti….lol Could be fake as all they’ve posted was an edited shipping checklist, but still somehting to keep an eye on nonetheless. Here’s the page if anyone cares to watch it unfold lol
https://archive.nyafuu.org/vp/thread/29631541/just-scannedsigned-for-a-shipment-of-sun-version
I used to work in electronics, there are a lot of stores that get early shipments although its usually not 2 weeks before the release. If he does take it and leak it though not only can he be fired (obv) but his store can lose the right to sell date marked games, plus a hefty fine, honestly not worth it for a game..
Well yeah there are plenty of risks if he does it. None that are worth it, but still could happen I guess. lol
usually gamestops can get their shipments the earliest is a week latest being the day before
Yeah I’m not doubting it could happen, just being cautious as it could very well be fake lol
ill have to check myself when i start there next week
I have to imagine working at a store and having a personal investment in this kind of thing is hard. You’re right there, but can’t open the games and play hahaha
most people have self control
Early shipments happens all the time. I got Assassin’s Creed Syndicate 2 weeks before the actual release date
I hope an article on UB’s is made tbh
I like how like no one wants to accept its design and everyone knows it should be fluffier
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/49629db7aa156a6696732f1d694bd7af5c106bbaa9eeae2c1e875feea1850d0f.jpg

*Shudder*
Dont you love its wide face?
i do love how it follows the OG art instead of the firered art
http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/6/6f/053Persian_RG.png
I was talk about this before ….. I think the concept of Alolan Persian is this. http://is.4chan.org/vp/1478161092761.jpg I don’t really know y ppl consider this cat as a beautiful cat but with this the concept of Alolan Persian become more clear the …..which is beauty is a relative issue.
Hahahahaha loool
The official art is only slightly less worse than the in game model, which is horrendous. It literally looks like it swallowed a ball. They needed to texture the fur or something.
im finally happy
https://ifunny.co/fun/9u9cv1YH4?gallery=tag&query=dugtrio
lol Smh
Gen 4 gave us many cross gen evos: Rypherior, Magmortar, Togekiss etc.
Gen 6 gave us megas: Altaria, Salamence etc.
Gen 7 gave us new Kanto pokemon forms aka Alolans: Ninetales, Exggcutor etc.
I noticed that if a pokemon got cross gen evos, it did not get a mega or an alolan form. Same thing for Mega, if it got a ME it did not get a cross gen evo in gen 4 or an Alolan form.
Mega evolution=No Alolan form=No cross gen
Cross gen=No Alolan form=No mega evoultion
Alolan form=No mega evolution=No cross gen evo
Except for Gallade
Gallade was just avoid giving Wally a Mega Gardevoir since we just had a special trainer who specializes with Mega Gardevoir aka Diantha
So they made a mega SPECIFICALLY for that?
I highly doubt they’ll make a mega just to give a character a differing “signature” Pokémon.
Why is that so hard to believe? One of the key characters in XY had a mega gardevor, why would they want yet another key character to have a gardevoir one game later? Cmon kid
Mega Gallade debunks the “No stone evos get megas” and “No cross gen evos get megas” theory.
You can say that it’s Cuz of wally,but the fact that M-Gallade Exists proves that no cross gen evos or stone evos getting megas was purely coincidence
They created Ash-Greninja because they wanted Ash having a mega-ish Pokemon but since he only uses natives, they had to think of something else.
Charizard???
Is Charizard native to Kalos lol?
Good Point.
Although that was an anime thing
Yet Gallade was still the awesomest Mega by far
Meh could’ve been better
Stat wise
Yeah..
Abilty wise.
Stats are fine
Imagine if this boi got defiant or speed boost :3
Anything would have worked better than inner focus.
All Other Megas in ORAS got such useful abilities.
It should have gotten something like adaptability
I feel defiant or justified because they just suit the mon
The only good thing about inner focus is that you can use it against those annoying lopunny who always use fake out
Tru
It should be faster IMO
It just got a cape. Capes won’t make anyone fast. It’ll slow you down infact
NO CAPES
NO CLOTHES FOR POKEMON
Jinx says hi honey
Actually that dress is its skin or fur
Its still a disgusting creature
I hate jynx
Edna Mode… and guest!
No capes are cool and make you fly
You’re thinking Superman, I’m thinking physics
Superman doesn’t flying using his cape hahaha
But he has one
loool they don’t make you fly
That cape tho
Truuuuu
I have no problems with Alolan forms and these things are pretty much understandable in my opinion. The thing I don’t get however, is why the heck did they decide to leave megas without further support. I mean, they made a whole generation about it and now they simply decide to throw it out. Giving the main focus to Z Moves is perfectly fine, but giving megas to certain pokémon (like the Kanto and Hoenn starters or pseudo-legendaries) and not giving one to others of similar caliber (like Johto, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos starters or for exampla Dragonite) is just dumb. It’s the whole GS Ball anime situation over again. If you scrap it after one gen, don’t even start it and talk about Mega Flygon…
What happened with gs ball again?
I thought they just gave it to Kurt and then it went away or something
The GS Ball was left at Curt’s house in the anime. It was supposed to contain Celebi, but later the idea was scrapped and Celebi got its own movie instead. After an entire story arc focused on the GS Ball, the idea was just thrown out the window, pretty much like new Mega Evolutions in Gen 7. I’m still hoping for new megas in the DP remakes, because it would fit into the story a little bit more than Z Moves.
I wonder if we will ever get another type. It seems mostly balanced now that I don’t think there will ever be a need. Which kinda sucks because I wanted a sound type and or a cosmic type
Cosmic type has too many similarities with Psychic
Synthetic type? Like they could reclassify the man made pokemon. So Mewtwo would be psychic/synth
Would synthetic, in your opinion, resist/counter types like psychic, ghost, dark, and fairy?
Hm
Weak to: Fire, Steel
Resists: Fairy, Poison, Ghost
Strong to: Fairy, Fighting, Electric
That was hard. Idk if I like that either lol
They should probably add Anti-Fairy Type. Which KOs any fairy type instantly
There should be a Poison and Steel move that insta kills Fairies. And make Poison and Steel types immune to Fairy as well.
k no

Can I upvote this forever
I’d like Spirit. Like the essence of life type, but I’d want it to be the way Fairy should have been; rare.
That’s kind of a neat idea
Sounds like Fairy and Ghost combined
Well, actually I’m going by chi which is supposably the master of all elements combined and represents life.
That would probably fall into Fairy in the pokemon universe. Xerneas creates life so
Or Xernaes could altered to fit the type since the concept I have for doesn’t it doesn’t 100% match fairy. Not that my type would ever happen.
Light type for mega arceus
Primal*
or something else
I like Spirit. :3
Assuming we’ll have gen 4 remakes, they’ll probably do something with Arceus. Maybe an ”unleashed” form or something that resembles Megas/Primal
Arceus Alpha Form
Apparently that Giancarlo Parimango guy has an early copy. I don’t believe his shit tho. I don’t think he’s a mean person or anything, but he’s kind of annoying. He uploads videos that are incredibly click bait-y and at this point I don’t think I’d trust anything he actually says. I think what annoys me the most is him pretending like what he posts isn’t click bait. He likes to seem innocent. Again I don’t think he’s trying to be malicious, but it’s kind of dumb hahaha
Advertising that you have an early copy is pretty stupid. At least I think so. Lol
Well yeah that too. He didn’t come right out and say he has it, but given the context and timing I’d say it’s pretty likely. Again he loves to post click bait so I really don’t believe him regardless lol
I don’t watch his stuff. I don’t watch Tyranitar Tube for that reason either. Lol He has over hyped titles.
Yeah I can’t either. Again I don’t find them trying to be malicious or anything, but the blindly innocent click baiting is REALLY annoying.
Same. I hate click bait like Tyranitar Tube literally had a all caps CONFIRMED for a fake mon several times since May lol
Sounds like a certain pokemon furry youtuber we all know he has so many click bait titles its not even funny, and yet he likes to point fingers at everyone else
Ewww. Hate that guy.
Let me guess does his name start with a V?
yep
Only that certain YouTuber is incredibly mean and malicious. lol
Freakin piece of garbage Lycanroc Midnight form :3
I DESPISE that …. Thing
Whyyyy
where did he even say this
As much of a piece of work he is , he has had info before…
They just need to release the Pokedex so I can build my team. Of course they’ll change as I play and learn more about the Pokemon but I like to build teams and make sure they’re perfect. I feel two weeks before the game is released is good…
but its already been leaked? or are you team incomplete?
No, my teams are completed so far, but I don’t know names and types of some of the Pokemon.
I think the dataminers released the pokedexes for each island, if I remember correctly. ( However, I have just an inkling of a feeling that this isn’t all the mons, it still feels off, but whatever, I’m cool if it is )
;))))))
This and all the stats where changed to a pikachu… seems they anticipated the datmine. Just sayin’ 😉
So do I, but I wanna know names and types of some of the Pokemon that I’ve placed on my teams. I agree, I feel there are more to what was leaked too… Komala HAS to have an evolution!
What’s curious in my opinion is that the Tapu are obviously based upon the parts of a totem pole, yet we don’t have any form where they actually join to become one.
Is that feeling a kid but also a squid?
I can confirm I feel a kid but also a squid.
That is indeed good
But regardless, I have my teams mostly planned. I just have one spot each for each team, however, I just need to know more in order to figure out those last spots.
cough cough morelull? cough
Cough cough only if it shines like I mentioned before 😛
I love it regardless
I just want it to shine D: lol
Oh so do I…. I have them mapped out, but I wanna know the names and types of the ones that haven’t been released yet that are on my teams…

:p
I think they’re only counting main series lol
I know. I just wanted to point out that the other two have been given some love, even if it’s not main series love.
😛 Poor Raikou.
In addition, Entei is on Trozei’s box art as well!
True! 😛
Yes Gawd! Giving Raikou the spotlight like it deserves
By the way, Wes which of the three is your favorite?
Which one is your favourite Serenotic?
Suicune!
I can’t choose. I love them all!
HELLO?
http://pre05.deviantart.net/54f4/th/pre/i/2015/111/8/f/suicune_by_airaly-d6gbghs.jpg
My favorite! And my vote! <3
No WHY it’s not better than Ho-oh…?
Ho-oh is a close second. If it makes you feel better I don’t like Lugia. Lol
Of the three Suicine but I voted for Lugia.
Ok question time. Who here is crazy enough to start Sun & Moon by soft resetging for a shiny starter? I want a shiny Rowlet and my insanity as a shiny hunter is slowly pushing me into soft resetting for one @_@
I still wanna play right away so no. if i want a shiny rowlet im gonna MM
So do I x_x it’s just that…the sparkles…they are so tempting…@_@
yea but like your gonna be waiting a long time probably before you even start the game 🙁
HELL NOOOOO lol
I, thankfully, don’t like any of the starters’ shiny forms. Lol
I’mma wait on that, I’ll just play through the games first.
However, I will reset for a female Litten so I can name it after my cat Molly, so yeah.
Don’t torture yourself like that.
why bother
like shiggy always said “Please don’t do that”
Do it if you want, but I’d do it on a later run and not your first
I may be a shiny hunter,but I’ll wait until I complete the main story to start hunting
Wouldn’t you rather wait until you have the resources to try breeding for a competitive shiny Rowlet?
Anyone want to take a guess on Alolan Dugtrio’s type? It’s probably happened tons of times but now that we’ve had time to think about it
I still think Ground/Normal, Ground/Fairy if GameFreak is high. Doubt it won’t change type since every other Alolan has
Ground/Dragon(That’s how Ampharos became a dragon ;D)
Isn’t it because its Japanese name has the Japanese word for dragon in it? Or something similar?
Ryudenshi i think
Denryu
Den as in Denshi which means electric and Ryu which is obviously Dragon
The scenes when its gonna be Dragon/Electric
No, it was the hair. Just the hair. XD lol
I think Ground/Rock. Nothing too special.
i swear….if Ground/Fairy i will asplode
you can keep it, the fairies don’t want it
If it’s a Fairy then I’ll finally join you in your extreme anger toward random Pokemon becoming fairies for no reason.
we need more members
I only like Klefki, so I am a member too
Who cares at this point? It’s ugly and I don’t plan on using it even if the typing is new.
i care, i’m the unquestioned master of Ground types and whatever happens to it becomes my business
You’re not bound to like every ground type though. You don’t have to use it if you don’t want to
i have to, i have a reputation to keep and that means i have to use Every. Single. Ground Type. regardless of appearance…and that includes Wormadam…
You can still be a ground master without it though. But if you feel it necessary, go ahead. I don’t see it as a fairy, but the alolan forms are dumb so you never know.
To be a master means i have to use them all
no exceptions
Well, to be fair, that’s a rule you set yourself. I say cast alolan dugtrio into the fire, fairy or not
Or, the water
Water and then fire so that it’s a slow burn
what crawled up your exhaust port
Alolan forms sucking.
Well Earthen I’m the self proclaimed Fairy Queen and there are a handful of fairies I really don’t like
self proclaimed isn’t good enough what have you done to earn their favor?
Umm
…
Hm
Oh! I’m the Fairy leader! That’s something! I also was in the camp that said fairy was real before it was officially revealed!
And aren’t you self proclaimed ground master?
i’ve used every Ground Type in a main game to date
i’ve done mono runs of every region (although Kanto was a Rom and Kalos was only Diggersby but i substituted ones i didn’t use)
I have over a ton of Monotype experience
and i’m the very few who actually holds Ground Type nationalism
I’m sorry star but in the grand scheme of things I think on this site I am the fairy master considering I went out of my way to IV breed every single one of them as well as tracking down every single fairy pokemon in shiny form, I’ve used them all and I love them all
@BigGuyI:disqus I don’t want to have to love that critter though so hopefully its not a fairy but if it is I will accept it and grow to love it
you’re free to rule along side me though in the inevitable world domination of the Fae though
Probably Ground/Fabulous
Definitely Ground but Ground what is the question…. I mean, they’ve thrown some pretty wild typings at us already, Grass/Ghost…. Maybe it’s Ground/Fire. I’m honestly leaning towards Ground/Fairy
They could sidewind us and make it Ground/Electric
GameFreak is always high. It’s totally Fairy type
If it is ill say I’ll hate it and probably eat my words after I play with it in refresh
Like every other Pokémon I hate
I think it looks funny but I would probably never use it
The Ultimate troll is if it stays pure Ground Type.
