Am I the only one who thought of Woodmon and Cherrymon from Digimon when they saw the sketch art of Oorotto? In any case, I find it hard to believe that it'll be a pseudo legendary and even less likely Chespin's evolution.
The resemblance is uncanny. Then again, I guess there's only so much you can really do when you make a monster out of a tree.No....alot of people thought of those two. I think me and Twilight Sky were the only two to think of Treeface from Dragon Quest which actually looked closer to the second/third art attempt XD
In its PokéDex entries, Sudowoodo is said to appear like a tree but is mostly composed of rocks rather than vegetation. To me, from the sketches Oorotto seems more of a living tree than a rock replica of one. I can also picture Oorotto being another Grass/Dark or Grass/Ghost type, neither of which I think Sudowoodo would evolve into; a Rock / Fighting type would seem more fitting.Lastly, I can kind of see this thing turning out to be a Sudowoodo evolution, but, I wouldn't count on it. It just doesn't look like it should be, but, because of the whole tree aspect, I can see it.
Secondly, based on the latest two artworks, and what someone said earlier (can't remember who, sorry) about this generation getting a lot of Dark types and Fairy types, I sort of changed my opinion on Oorottos typing. I can still see it becomming Grass/Ghost, but, know, I'm thinking maybe Bug/Dark. I mean, we have already seen a bunch of new type combinations, Bug/Dark is one that hasn't been done yet. So I can definitely see this thing turning out to be Bug/Dark.
I saw Dark/Flying as Yveltal's type coming, like 5 months ago. Yveltal's signature move (Death Wing) sounds cool, but I have a feeling it'll be toned down to something else in the English version, like Dark Wing or Night Wing.
I was surprised when I learned that Xerneas was a pure Fairy; it doesn't even look the part, other than its antlers.
Regarding the 5 new Pokemon, I like Koronda the best out of them. I also can't help but wonder why the squids aren't Water type.
Have we confirmed what swear word got censored out of the full name there? Might need to adjust the spam filter.There's a new Gym leader, with the robot arms, called ****oron (シトロン) while the other Gym Leader is called Zakuro (ザクロ)
Well not counting Surge it's 5 generations of Electric, and 3 of Bug if one leaves out the Gen II remakes, either way your point still stands...however we still have five more gym leaders to go, and there's a slight chance Grant may be Dark (I think he's rock though).Six generations of Electric type leaders, Four generations of Bug leaders and yet still none with Dark types... I can't figure out the logic behind that.
Anyone have any ideas on Grants type as gym leader?
Grant may be fighting since it says he is good at sports. I do hope we see a dark type gym though. We still haven't seen one. And the guy with robots arms might be steel type. Looking at where he is standing though, he might be a Psy Gym Leader.
The bug aspect is coming from the first person that saw it and reported it to the fansites.
He and another said it was "spider-like" this is why people are saying it is part bug.
