Pokemon General Discussion Thread Gen I

I'm expecting Fire/Grass, as it's likely gonna be a soccer bunny.

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

I was getting a Water/Poison vibe from the lizard dude personally.

 

[NeoZex6399]

serious response:

Fire/Electric

Water/Ghost

Grass/Steel

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

Grass/Fighting

Water/Fighting

Fire/Fighting

Remember when Fighting was considered one of the best types in the entire game?

I miss those days...

 

[NeoZex6399]

I like the fighting type, but not for the starters, I think there are already too many.

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

Totally, I was just being nostalgic. In Gen V and prior, Fighting types were some of the more consistently used Pokemon in OU, with Machamp, Scrafty, Conkeldurr, Mienshao and Hitmonlee were all pretty common. But since Gen VI, they kind of faded away AFAIK.

Replace Dragon with Fighting and you'll see why

Scorbunny is going to wind up being Fire Fighting. Let's not kid ourselves lol. It even has Maylene's nose bandage.

Wait, Maylene? Gen 4 Gym Leader? SINNOH CONFIRMED!!!

Fire Fairy please.

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

Oh, I totally know why they did.

Stupid fairies. Bah.

 

[Assaltwaffle]

@Cal

Also Ghost and Dark neutral effect Steel, and Fightings were instrumental in dealing with Steel.

They went from one of the most dominating types in the game to about average.

 

[Dust_Collector]

It's almost the same pose, 100% confirmation Scorbunny is gonna be Fire/Fighting.

[Dragonmasterxyz]

Y'know....we did this for Fenniken and Litten for their evo's typings, and we were pleasantly surprised with Fire/Psychic and Fire/Dark respectively.

 

[Dziga]

Not really, Litten was pretty obviously going to be Dark Type.

 

[Dragonmasterxyz]

Not really, the moment Incineroar was shown, we got "lolFireFighting" everywhere.

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

I still thought Incineroar was actually fire fighting

 

[Peter_"Quicksilver"_Maximoff]

I'm getting a rugby or some kind of shaman vibe from the grass starter.

 

[NeoZex6399]

 

[Dust_Collector]

Really loving the UK inspiration this time around, but they better make sure the characters talk like us. If I don't at the very least see a single innit uttered I will consider this game a complete and utter failure.

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

Anyway any update from Pokemon massive overhaul (Not the AP one but about cleaning and adding more abilities) project? Greninja and Delphox get the one iirc.

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

I already saw a move where they did a find and replace for the Japanese to the English version, changing out desu for innit lol

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

Lol

Still waiting for Lopunny cleaning

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

I'm a huge fan of British Isle and Celtic folklore and mythology, so I hope to see some cool stuff in Pokemon and landmark designs. I'm pretty sure I spotted a referenced the Uffington White Horse in the trailer!

 

[Peter_"Quicksilver"_Maximoff]

I almost sure the this gens Trio are going be a bunch of knights, I'm thinking it's going related to the knights of the round table or something like that.

 

[Dust_Collector]

Oh yeah there was defiently a Uffington White Horse (Or maybe Cerne Abbas Giant) reference.

 

[Kirby71]

@Cal, i found you this

.

 

[NeoZex6399]

 

[Peter_"Quicksilver"_Maximoff]

That legit could be what the starters are going to be.

 

[Dust_Collector]

Dang that's some nice art, although I'm very mad that the artist used Soccer Rabbit instead of Football Rabbit.

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

Defiantly the giant.

To be honest, I thought of the giant first but didn't know the name so I went with the closest equivalent I knew of.

 

[Xerkser500]

I have a feeling the Swords of Justice could potentially get a huge role in this game for...well...obvious reasons.

And yeah I'd be Team Bunny all the way if I could actually play this game lol.

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Team Monkey for me.

 

[Bobsican]

Can we agree that more megaevolutions are needed?
