Formes in HG/SS?
 
Platinum did a nice job with experimenting on changing the appearance and stats of certain Pokemon with the use of simple items. Do you think the same formes will be carried over to HG/SS, or even if new formes will be introduced?

Alex May 9th, 2009 7:43 PM

Well we first saw that in RSE with Deoxys, right? They could have done that to any of the Pokemon in FRLG, but they only did that to Deoxys because he had already had it done and he wasn't part of the original 151. So, I think, to preserve nostalgia, they're going to cut back on formes in HGSS. They'll have tons of fun with it in Generation 5 though.

I never liked Formes in the first place. They're an unnecessary clutter and a waste of game space. I mean, why on Earth do you have to make a Pokemon hold something for it to transform and all? Pokemon should just have their original formes, and not change. That way, the ROMs won't be so big and expensive.

"Shadow Lugia" May 9th, 2009 8:22 PM

The only thing I could think of would be giving Lugia and Ho-oh new forms. The reason I'm saying this is that since R/S all of the version mascots have been version exclusive. They couldn't do this to Lugia and Ho-oh, however, since they each have their own dungeon. The only way I can think of them changing that is by having both mascots in both games, but each version would have an exclusive second form for their mascot. It would probably be caused by an item.

I'm not sure if I'm for or against the idea. I'm just putting it out there.

The only forme that would make a little sense would be a Sea Form of Shaymin, just to completee Land, Sea and Air. But even that idea is illogical and most likey won't happen.

Somehow I doubt we'll see any new formes in HG/SS. =/ Just doesn't quite seem too likely, especially as I feel HG/SS will focus on the 2nd gen legendary Pokemon rather than others. We haven't gotten anything on it thus far, so if there were can't be too long either (as opposed to Platinum when there was stuff on the alternate formes). But that's my opinion.

Haza May 9th, 2009 10:50 PM

Im open to any new forms they decide to add. It not like you have to use it.

Youji May 9th, 2009 10:51 PM

HG/SS is the same time as D/P/P, right? So I don't think we will see lots of changes reagarding Pokémon. I mean I'm happy with a simple plain remake (with a bunch of adjustments) of G/S xD

Loook at the difference between Platinum to Diamond & Pearl! So many new formes.

Youji May 9th, 2009 11:05 PM

True... A damn xD
Why do we have so less information^^

Nitrous Oxide May 9th, 2009 11:06 PM

Any new forms and I'm going to go on a killing spree in the Pokemon Co. headquarters. Forms are the dumbest thing ever, stop turning the best game franchise ever into Digimon, ffs.

Alistair May 10th, 2009 4:18 AM

The only formes I could really see are minor ones, such as the Notch-Ear Pichu. If these existed, they would probably work someway like shiny Pokémon. Other than that (by that, I mean the type of forme, not just the Pichu), hopefully there are no other ones.

.inLOVE May 10th, 2009 4:57 AM

I highly doubt it, but a new Lugia forme would be nice in SoulSilver.

negative May 10th, 2009 6:50 AM

Nah...(I think) there are no new forms...
Maybe a New Deoxys...

Percy Thrillington May 10th, 2009 6:54 AM

I was never really happy with the idea of formes in Pokémon. Reminded me too much of Digimon, you know? But knowing the people who make the games, I doubt very much that the Legendaries will make it to the finished product without being given new formes.

Ooka May 10th, 2009 7:55 AM

Well, I really doubt there will be any new forms myself, (Especially Deoxys, as it's already attained all it's forms due to the fact that it's stats are relevant to it's forms). Maybe 1 new Rotom, but I even doubt that. :/

Azonic May 10th, 2009 7:57 AM

They have enough forms in DPPt in my opinion. xD

Dunsparce May 10th, 2009 8:03 AM

I'm pretty Confidant that all seven of the new Platinum formes will be available in some way in HG/SS.

I don't mind formes, really, as it's like adding new Pokemon Mid-Gen.

I also liked that the Appliance Rotom formes, Stat-wise, are like Psuedo-Evolutions.

No, I dont want formes, they're silly... And Digimon like..

The notch-ear Pichu is a female Pichu... It's obvious, as the Pichu in the movie is a female, it means that we're getting some new Female/Male differences.

crobatdeluxe May 11th, 2009 5:17 AM

Its okay to have new forms. I won't use them for my team anyway.

Artemis May 11th, 2009 8:45 AM

The new Pichu from movie 12 would be the only new Pokémon form I would like to see them add. Deoxys is another possibility as well, but others I just don't think would be too necessary.

manga_meijin2 May 11th, 2009 6:00 PM

I think there are going to make use of the items now but also make new ones :)
