S'MO Pokemon

These two I like a lot.

Is that panda supposed to look like Mr. Hyde? I hope it is.

The panda is supposed to look like a banchou; a stereotypical Japanese delinquent boss.

See here for more information.

I really love the panda! It's the first one I've seen (other than the starter) that I think I've made my mind up about having on my team

Is that a sword? It looks stupid.

I got a 3DS a while ago so I'm definitely going to pick up Pokémon Y.

Mr. Bungle · #**156** 07-13-2013, 11:00 AM

Squids!!!

I will buy this game.

Yep. Steel/Ghost type too.

I think it looks okay to be honest. Maybe it will evolve into giant, over the top sword. Also know as Cloud's sword.

Jordan · #**158** 07-16-2013, 07:02 AM

The buster sword? Hell yeah.

I'm hoping for a possessed knight/suit of armour.

Bullet Magnet · #**159** 07-19-2013, 08:38 AM

Would the presence of a scabbard Pokemon make this game R-rated?

MeechMunchie · #**160** 08-07-2013, 09:46 PM

Hey, it's BM's team.

Also

Crashpunk · #**161** 08-11-2013, 04:14 AM

MegaElectrode just needs to happen.

Jordan · #**162** 08-11-2013, 04:31 AM

I'm curious about MegaBlaziken. If that is getting a mega evolution, will all the other final form starters get one? It seems dumb to give it to just one.

Wings of Fire · #**163** 08-11-2013, 04:58 AM

Did someone say best mega?

Phylum · #**164** 08-11-2013, 05:27 AM

Mega Blazekin is a promotional thing, and players will only be able to get the special torchic from some event.

MeechMunchie · #**165** 08-11-2013, 06:57 AM

I'm not crazy about mega evolution, if only because it means less time spent "properly" evolving old 'mon or exploring new designs.

On the other hand, it's better they try something wacky and fail than get settled into an endless series of indistinguishable games. And yes, MegAmpharos is the best. Bishie llama.

Crashpunk · #**166** 08-14-2013, 01:01 PM

Blazekin is like one of the most overpowered Pokemon used in battles thanks to the recent changes to him in B2/W2. Now his Mega form is even more powerful...

I guess it's because Blazekin is the fan favourite starter.

But yeah anyway. I too want to see all the starters get Mega forms. Charizard and Feraligatr would be amazing.

MeechMunchie · #**167** 09-13-2013, 07:56 AM

Aviator Frog. Yes.

Yes.

Wings of Fire · #**168** 09-13-2013, 08:07 AM

Yes.

Fox stands up, is designed with the intent of being feminine and attractive and has a wand.
Grass thing is... who the fuck knows what is up with grass thing

No.

Crashpunk · #**169** 09-13-2013, 03:40 PM

The grass starter isn't a evolution. It just got fat.

Also there are different Mega forms of Mewtwo in X and Y

Dynamithix · #**170** 09-13-2013, 11:55 PM

Froakie's second evolution is so badass.

Jordan · #**171** 09-14-2013, 01:13 AM

I think Chespin turned into a balloon...

Hopefully the final evolved form will look a lot better... I won't judge it by the second form. But damn

MeechMunchie · #**172** 09-14-2013, 04:07 AM

Chespin's clearly a horse chestnut.

As for the Firefox, the ear points and the stick in the tail suggest something along the lines of...

Strike Witch · #**173** 10-14-2013, 12:43 AM

It came out on the weekend, I've been playing it.

It's mostly fantastic. The region is beautiful, you can customize the hell out of your trainer, the story is interesting, the characters fun, music is grand, adds tons of features to fiddle with like super training and pokemon cuddling, great multiplayer stuff, tons to explore, the largest pokedex in the series...

...but there just aren't enough new pokemon. It's probably because they spent the majority of time porting over existing pokemon to 3D models so they can re-use them in future games, but it kind of really hurts the appeal of a new game when all you find is fucking tentacool, zoobat and shit again and again.

That said, the 70 or so new pokemon (not including megas) are mostly pretty great-looking, special points to Pumpkaboo.

But there's just not enough of them.

Oh well, maybe next time?

Manco · #**174** 10-14-2013, 01:35 AM

they finally realized the original 150 are the best heyooooo

My copy of Y will be arriving today... and the 3DS I ordered to play it on will be arriving at some point later in the week.

Dynamithix · #**175** 10-14-2013, 01:42 AM

I downloaded Pokémon Y from the e-Shop and I've played about five hours of it. I really like the 3D world and I'm having fun with the game, but like Strike Witch said, there aren't really that many new Pokémon and all of the final forms for the starters are shit, I don't even want to evolve my Frogadier when the time comes. One good thing for me though is that I haven't played Black or White (or the sequels for that matter) so for me there are actually a ton of new Pokémon to catch.

Strike Witch · #**176** 10-14-2013, 01:50 AM

Get the fuck out you tasteless faggot

Delphox is gorgeous

Dynamithix · #**177** 10-14-2013, 04:06 AM

But Braixen is better looking. And so is Frogadier. And... well... Chespin is definitely better than its two latter forms.

Strike Witch · #**178** 10-14-2013, 05:36 AM

Braixen is okay for a fox furry.

Delphox is a fucking awesome kitsune robe-wearing oracle with a magic wand. It's fantastic.

Froakie's evolutionary line is the lamest shit ever. Frog -> bigger Frog -> bigger Frog

At least fire and grass actually do something with it, though grass just ends up looking like a clusterfuck.

Dynamithix · #**179** 10-14-2013, 07:45 AM

I would be completely okay with Greninja if it had the bubble scarf that Frogadier has, but that huge dumb as fuck tongue around its neck looks so stupid and the white dots on its arms and legs are also pretty pointless.

Just beat the second gym, man that gym leader looked ugly as fuck lol. It was very easy with Frogadier. Currently I'm trying to get my Skiddo and Sandile to evolve. I really, really like the 3D world, some environments look amazing.

Crashpunk · #**180** 10-14-2013, 10:41 AM

Got Pokemon X a day before release (I know get me!) and I'm slowly making progress. I don't rush Pokemon games and tend to try and do a gym a day. Maybe even more depending.

The game itself is fantastic. The last Pokemon game I truly loved was Ruby/Sapphire and this blows it out of the water. As much I am a sucker for the originals, this game truly is the best Pokemon RPG.

The world is so beautiful and great to explore. The music is really catchy, I dig the Gym battle music. I'm SO GLAD they finally switched to 3D models. I was getting sick of sprites and because your not stuck on a 4x4 grid anymore, travailing around is so much more fun.

As for the Pokemon. Well I agree with what's already said. I don't have many favourites.
As much as people hate hearing 'ooh the originals are better'. Well I'm sorry they kinda are. Design wise anyway.

My team consists of Braixen, Pancham, Jolteon (which has ZERO Electric moves) Pidgeotto (which is shite. Going to replace soon), Gloom and a spare slot....

yeeeeah my team is a mess. I'm pretty terrible at Pokemon.
