oh yes, it truly is an amazing pokemon x) its funny too, because your avatar is my second-favorite pokemon- ive been in love with it ever since i first got Emerald xD
Yeah I know what you mean, it's easy to judge gen. V on Zorua and Zoroark but in reality there's going to be (most likely) at least 100 new pokemon added, jugding your game experience on them alone is just silly to say the least.
I also can't get people shooting down the starters just because they've been getting progressively worse. I mean I can easily see the fourth and first generation starters switching places. Most people would love a Fire Monkey but because of people's obsessions with repetition and "originality" they instantly write off Infernape as a Blaziken copy and dislike it. I must say it all makes me want to *face palm*
As I'm befriending you, I have to notice your conversation with Magma. I have to agree completely with you two about generation 4 and how people are so quick to hate on it. No one judges generation 2 on Dunsparce. >.<
