[Megathread] Pokémon X and Y / Generation 6

[PetersenIII]

This is something I've wanted for ages now, and one of the biggest reasons why Silver was by far and wide my favorite of all the series. The end game extension to battle the original trainers and Elite Four was a great idea that everything beyond has sadly lacked.

I'd have to agree, an MMO would be one of the best moves Nintendo could ever make. I could definitely see sales numbers for it rivaling the biggest franchises in the gaming industry.

Just one of the many reasons Silver was *awesome*. The re-balancing of the weakness chart and the introduction of Dark and - much more importantly - steel types. I loved Gen 2 as much as Gen 1 (though some of the Pokemon felt *really* wierd, like Flaafy). I, too, have been wishing for a "You beat the Elite 4, congratuatlions! Now go play in this new region!" game since Silver.

Why do you think I always have a Quagsire? Besides being the most adorable thing ever.

Thank god, someone else who appreciates Quagsire as much as I do.

My Top 10 favorite is always changing depending on the game I'm playing, but Quagsire is always in the top 5.

Starmie is my favorite forever <3

Next would be quagsire but I hate how it looks in gen 5. Like it's flailing or something.

I found a shiny one of these in the Safari zone once.


It trolled me for 13 turns and then fled.

Yeah.

It's most likely based on Desert Fox.

Pokemans have come to real life :O

[zito]

Pokemans have come to real life :O

most pokemon are based on real life animals

[ThatsOurEric]

Ice cream is a real life animal?

*Worst design EVER*

might be sarcasm, but that gets lost easily on the internet.

Duh

Why exactly does the Ice Cream get so much hate? I mean, it's by no means a good design, but it's not the first time Gamefreak has had shitty designs.

I'd be rich for the many times I've seen..

"LOL ICE CREAM POKEMON RELLY?????"

or

"LOL I MEAN A GARBAGE BAG POKEMON...... REALLY???????"


pls stop

A PILE OF PURPLE SLUDGE RELLY??????

[zito]

Duh

Kittens are the flavor of the future!

The sludge makes sense.
They were trying to create Mewtwo.
Some of the excess DNA got mixed with the waste produced from the machine.
BAM new pokemon.

[zito]

Not beating Voltorb. Top design there

its evolved form is even better!

That was Ditto, and Nintendo denied that theory.

Grimer is born from sludge exposed to radiation. Or x-rays from the moon according to bulbapedia, whatever that means.

[zito]

I think radioactive waste sounds better than crazy moon waves

Yea that's why I said it since X-rays are a form of radiation, from the moon? No idea...

Neither grimer/muk nor koffing/weezing were created by some Mew clone DNA waste runoff. Hell, the explanation for Grimer's existence is that x-rays from the moon turned pollution into a pokemon. Why can't they just use the same excuse for trubbish/garbodor or vanillite/vanillish/vanilluxe?

I like all Pokemons up till season 10 in the show, Black & White...B&W caused me to stop watching and playing Pokemon...the only thing that can bring me back is either they stop crapping out random Pokemon or a good 3D console game.

Most people I know buy the new gen games and regret it later...but as always people like/dislike different things.

[zito]

A child got an ice cream on a hot sunny day but the crazy moon waves twisted the scenario and made him start eating a living creature. I love this game design

This Pokémon formed from icicles bathed in energy from the morning sun

Not joking, this is the ice creams origin.
