Dorek Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 (edited) Mewtwo was as cool as they come, watchu talking about.Reminds me, I saw some fanart sometime with Mewtwo in his Giovanni battle-armor standing over the corpse of Arceus. A little dark, and wouldn't happen even in the anime... but dang if it wasn't cool.

Ballom Nom Nom Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 It's not that Mewtwo looks bad; he has a pretty cool concept. But there are couple dozen of other Pokemon that I prefer the design of more.~B~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senrab Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Mewtwo is the only Gen I Pokemon I really like, I do agree most of the later designs are better. There's just something I like about the big purple psychic alien kangaroo though. =P Quote 3DS FC: 0216 - 1922 - 2231 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer Vonn Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Pet peeve of mine that Celebi is Psychic/Grass type. I thought up until now that it was Grass/Psychic type. Probably because of his colour. Quote 3DS: 3711-9364-3152 PSN: AidecVoros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Whiplash- Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 (edited) Hmm.. I've been playing that pokemon online game,and I've learned wht pokemon are good and what ones aren't. Kinda makes me sad my some of my Favorites, like Hypno, Mawile, Mismagius and Sharpedo aren't.But at least I can use Cloyster and Scizor.What's your guys's favorite pokemon? I like Mawile a lot, but it's really bad.EDIT: This may just be my opinion, but I've noticed a drop in the quality of the music since Crystal, the music for firered and soulsilver sounds much better then emerald, platinum, and White's Music. Although the elite four theme from Black and white is pretty awsome. Edited April 28, 2012 by -Whiplash- Quote Gamers rise up, not down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer Vonn Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Pokemon Online?Let me introduce you to my favourite Pokemon University...My absolute 100% favourite Pokemon, both in practice and design, is Scrafty.Phenomenal typing, all the right moves, looks great, very versatile. Holds his own against OU titans, even with that abysmal Fighting-weakness.Shiftry, Lucario, and Hitmonlee also rank highly. I think my two favourite types should be clear from that list.

Archer Vonn Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Yeah- Focus Blast is smart on Zam, Focus Punch is not.If your team has problems with Alakazam, using Jirachi will help that. Scizor also revenges, and if you want to bank on a Focus Blast miss, you can use a defensive Dark Type, like Tyranitar with a Chople Berry.It bothers me to no end that Tyranitar's most effective set is a defensive one.

Alyska Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) While not resistant to Psychic, I reckon Multi-Scale Dragonite with Extremespeed would probably counter Zam quite well, since HP Ice variants are rare.EDIT:So, from the trailers and screenshots of B2W2 so far, it appears that there's some sort of movie studio. We've seen the outside of a building decorated with film strips and cameras, an interior of a building featuring a green screen and an NPC who seems to be wearing a Mo-cap suit, as well as what appears to be an animatronic Tyranitar. Replacement for the Musicals, perhaps? Edited May 5, 2012 by Alyska Quote 3DS Friend Code: 0018-0767-4231 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer Vonn Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 A good point- if Alakazam happens to be running a Focus Sash set with his Sash intact [and looking at Alakazam's defenses, that is quite reasonable], and Stealth Rocks are on the field, that Dragonite is begging to be revenge killed, though.There was actually an episode of the Black and White anime that featured Ash, Iris, and Cilan starred in a movie, filmed and directed by a CotD. A very, very terrible episode indeed, but maybe the game is throwing back to that a little bit. Animatronic Tyranitar sounds fun.I hope more pseudo-legendaries are available in-game in B2W2, if just to stack my team like the Yankees.

Archer Vonn Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Cheren thought he would have it all. First being a rival, then later in a sequel game, a gym leader? He was so proud of himself. He woke up bright and early, the first day of Gym Leading, brushed his teeth extra special, walked proudly up to the doors of his gym, burst through the doors and was subsequently crushed, as he realized that Gary m(@#%*$*(@$ing Oak had beat him to the punch.

Alyska Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) *Deep breath*... okay, my thoughts:Bianca and Cheren are back... I kind of like Bianca's new design. Just one thing, though...Bianca: Oh, Hey, Cheren! I'm gonna be a Pokemon researcher now, which means I need to look smart! You don't mind if I have these, do you? Kthxbai!Cheren: Hey! Come back with my glasses!Also... Cheren! You had a Haxorus at the end of BW! Why are you using a Patrat???Brycen's apparently out of retirement and starring in movies again. Nice to see the Gym Leaders' characters getting fleshed out a bit. And there's at least one other "actor" character wearing superhero-sentai type outfits (One of them might be the player in a costume, but it's hard to tell...). Also, ROBOT TYRANITAR GODZILLA!It looks as though most of the old Gym leaders/elite 4s will be coming back, in addition to those in the main picture. if you look closely at one of the screenshots, you can see what looks like overworld sprites of Erika, Janine, Blaine, and Lt. Surge.And, finally, the new forms of the Kami Trio. They were all male in the originals, but at least two of these seem to have obvious cleavage (shudder...) And there's a new female professor associated with the AR Searcher whose design echoes the Kami.

I personally expect him to reappear later on in the game with his awesome party again.That'll be interesting, but I wonder if it means he won't be the Gym Leader in this game?Pokemon World Tournament will be AMAZING.Yeah... That's certainly different.

Alyska Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 New anime-style trailer up!-It appears that the hero and rival are friends-Cheren helps the Hero and the rival take on Team plasma-No sign of the female protagonist, implying that the alternative player character does not get a big role.-Elesa is still a gym leader- One member of the Shadow triad appears up close, confirming that he is male. He has green eyes, but they have whites, thus disproving the theory that the Triad are the former Striaton gym Leaders -Parts of Unova are, indeed, covered in ice.

Blessed Blade Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Yes, it is a direct sequel, like GSC to RGBY; except better, since it actually features the old characters prominently, instead of a handful of cameos here and there. =P(Like, for instance, Cheren and Bianca return in large roles, whereas Blue only appeared in the Kanto section.)Speaking of GSC, I think that the Kanto section of the story could be fleshed out more, and probably even Johto a little more.

Black 2 and White 2 however are the first LEGIT sequels, given that it takes two years after the events of Black and White, binging back characters who have bigger roles, N returning, and new gym leaders. Plus this game has the highest Regional dex of all the previous Pokemon games! With previous gen Pokemon making their way to the game like:EeveeRioluGrowlitheBeldumMareepLarvitarSeviperThere's more but not all have been revealed.

Blessed Blade Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 ... RGBY to GSC are confirmed as sequels... GSC initial intent(And initial names) were to essentially be 'Pokemon 2'. And even though the names were changed to be what's now 'more traditional', it doesn't change the fact that they're sequels. So, technically those are the first true sequels(Since they took place three years after RGBY), and B/W 2 are definitely the second pair, since even if you factor in D/P/Pt being confirmed to take place at a similar time as GSC, it doesn't change the fact that they aren't direct sequels to anything, unlike GSC, which, while it had it's own storyline and region, also featured Kanto for the post-game, and even featured a battle against the original PC, Red, and RGBY's rival-turned-gym leader, Green.Besides, if you wanna bring up HGSS, then HGSS is the sequel to FRLG. =POh, and N's not exactly confirmed to be returning, even if it's heavily hinted at. For all we know, he could be given named cameos only, no actual appearances, even if everything counters that. =P It's very doubtful that he won't be returning, given that they updated his artwork and everything, but...
