    I have a cool art project I've been working on that I call the "Pokemon Field Guide" you can check it out here.

    Its a realistic take on Pokemon set to a "Darwinian-esque Adventure." Feel free to let me know what you think! Enjoy!

    I... don't know what to say. Those are beyond awesome to be honest.
    I really like how they're drawn.

    Thank you! I'm still working on new material for it. Omastar and Diglett are in the works and I still plan on making another 30-40 pages. I eventually will turn it into an actual physical journal.

    Says everyone that has not played Pokemon after Gen 2.

    Gameplay, Story and Graphics have vastly improved. The new Pokemon are not any weirder than the old ones , and competetive play is more fun than ever.

    At the end of a Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 trailer being aired in Japan, a teaser cropped up, being shared around the internet through Twitter, at the end and has stated that the next big news regarding Pokémon will be revealed on January 8th 2013. It's currently unknown what this news is, whether it's related to current games, such as a new WiFi event or if it's a new game reveal.

    Gen 3 was pretty good, it had its ups and down though. Gen 2 did have those too. Heck, all generations have had its up and downs, there just seems to be way more downs than ups in the two latest generations.

    That's your opinion. I know a lot of people that disagree with that opinion.

    The older gens had more downs than ups than the newer gens. Rosie glasses tend to make it seem much better than it actually is.

    The 10th anniversary has passed, and we've heard nothing. At this point I'm just ready to move onto 6th gen. Hoenn deserves better than the DS anyway.

    Even as a big fan of every generation, I disagree. 5th gen Pokemon seem to be either really good or really bad, there's not a lot of middle ground. But hey, that's just my opinion.

    From a gameplay stand point.

    Gameplay isn't very relevant when Wariofan was talking about the pokemon.

    Most of G4's pokemon in general were pretty gosh darn bad, and the shitty ones in G5 are exceptionally shitty, but Skelington thinks most of G5 are middle groundish to good with quite the few phenomenal ones.

    I should of read the post he quoted, woops.

    Well, that makes more sense to me, and I agree. I can't pick out a single Gen 4 Pokemon that wasn't just 'meh..' or flat our terrible. Gen 5 had a lot of gems, but some really shitty ones, like Timburr/Gurdurr/Conkeldurr I will never understand that design choice...

    Wow, those are really really awesome!!! Keep drawing, it's something you're defenitly good at!!

    More "on topic"-ish: Got Pokémon black 2 for christmass and loving it so far... got both black and white already and played trough both atleast 1-2 times.
    I don't care what people say, i grew up with the first generations, and I'm continuing to enjoy the later ones!!

    They're pretty great, I might be a bit biased though since I haven't exactly had any major issues(a few minor ones but nothing that made me not want to play) with any of the games, have both Black 2 and White 2 though I've only played White through the E4 still a ton of stuff left to do when it comes to in game events even though I've had both copies since release.

    Yeh, like i said i love them all tbh.... I had Pokémon blue to gameboy collor, then silver, sapphire, leaf green, heart gold, platinum, black and white 1 and now black 2.
    And just like you I haven't really had a problem with any of them. Yeh sure some pokémons i have to say is kinda stupid and weird but hey, it's Pokémon after all hehe.
