I think the Chinese Zodiac theory applies for the first 8 generations. Skeledirge is their first departure from it because presumably, they want the franchise to go on for more than 12 gens. So they might just have it so that you CAN make a Chinese Zodiac out of the Fire Starters.

Now that I've played the game, a lot of them have grown on me. Palafin has quickly become one of my new favorite Pokémon. I love the box Legendaries. Dachsbun has grown on me significantly. Tinkaton intrigues and could see it becoming a favorite of mine. Glimmora takes getting used to, but it...

In all honesty? A lot of them are...not great. There are a few that I'm huge fan of and others that have grown on me. I really love Arboliva's design and I have taken a liking to Orthworm, Garganacl, Scovillain, and Baxcalibur. However, a large majority of them are stupid. Revavroom is really...

Oh I totally would. I mean, think of all the unique type combos in just two generations that they gave to regional forms. Ice/Fairy for Alolan Nintales, Ice/Steel for Alolan Sandslash, Electric/Psychic for Alolan Raichu, Rock/Electric for the Alolan Golem line, Psychic/Poison for Galarian...

To be honest, I’m a fan of the design but NOT of the typing. Not because I don’t want a Normal/Ghost type, but…why not create a NEW Pokémon with that typing. It’s one that’s never been used. Is it just me or does it seem like the Pokémon company is using regional forms as just an excuse to...

So I was watching a YouTube video earlier that got me thinking: are there any things that a big part of the fandom seems to want or think “should” happen that you don’t want or at least don’t understand? And I just wanna preface: this is not meant to chastise or belittle anyone’s opinion or...

I think you guys misunderstood my point. I'm not confused about what makes a Pokémon Mythical vs. Legendary. I understand that much. I'm just saying that that method is...kind of dumb. It leads to weirdly drawn distinctions in which Pokémon are split off from their supposed counterparts. Like I...

The title says it all. I know that Mythical is kind of a fanmade term for a kind of subset of Legendaries anyway, but the way they're divided up, IMO, is kind of all over the place. It's a bit weird that Mewtwo is a Legendary, but Mew, the Pokémon Mewtwo was cloned from, is Mythical. There are...

While I had been playing Pokémon games since Gen 2, my first level 100 Pokémon wasn’t until Gen V. It was the starter I chose in my Pokemon Black version: Samurott.

And Torkoal should evolve into Turtonator (and Turtonator's stats should be significantly boosted).

I thought the same way when they were first introduced, especially with Mawile. But looking back afterwards, I realized it was probably better that they were introduced as Mega forms. I don't want every Pokémon to have to evolve properly to become a competitive threat. Plus, there were already a...

I didn't realize it when I started this thread, but I think I've sort of realized why I think Mega Evolutions were, at least aesthetically speaking, the better mechanic. The designs of the Pokémon who have gotten Gigantamax forms have been pretty great actually so far. I mean, I'm not...

I get what you're saying. But unfortunately, those Pokémon who deservedly had Megas now have...nothing. Now, after finally getting their moment to shine, Mawile, Beedrill, and Sableye are useless in competitive again. So, do you think it would be worth it to bring at least THOSE Megas back...

I don't think anyone is saying that Mega Evolution was completely perfect, especially in terms of which Pokémon actually got Megas. HOWEVER, it is worth noting that, before getting it's Mega Evolution, Kangaskhan was the victim of immense power creep and hadn't been able to carve out a niche in...

I mean, yeah exactly. The whole point of Mega Evolution was that it was supposed to make some Pokémon much more powerful because some of those Pokémon were insanely outclassed by competitive mainstays. And you could absolutely argue that some Pokémon who didn't need Megas because they were...
