Holy motha, tohse are the starters??
No offenses, i really found all those to be cute, except for the pig, i just look at it and say:" Strange... "
and the otter is kinda nice-faced,
I just hope the evolved forms to be like [email protected](N! awsome as always




I don´t get it, what´s with the omg?

I imagine, the "omg" is because Pokemon has finally stopped whitewashing all over the shop! As in, they recognised that not everyone is white! Hopefully, we'll get some asian and hispanic characters too. *crosses fingers*

You realize everyone in the Pokemon world is Asian right...<.<

No it doesn't...Dragon doesn't beat Ground and Ground sure as hell doesn't beat Ice...

Okay guys, lets not let the quality of posts in this forum deteriorate. Remember the twenty five character rules still apply so no "filler" text or anything similar. Also, make sure that you keep speculation here. Anything about known information goes in the other thread. (But you already know that :D)

ground is super effective against ice, i used earthquake dozens of time to get rid of the ice leaders pokemon :P

yup, the dark skinned person definitely shows this region is far away, i mean like FAR FAAAAAAR away, even the way the male is dressed represents the urban american culture rather than the japanese and is older than all the other male protagonists. well it seems this game is definitely unique, cant wait for it.

Bamboo Basara May 12th, 2010 10:06 AM

I honestly doubt any of the starters will be part dragon. Dragon Pokemon are supposed to be rare, it wouldn't make sense for them to give you one at the start of the game.

Ice is Super Effective to Ground

Grass/Dragon is x4 to Ice
Fire/Ground is x4 to Water
Water/Ice starter beats the crap outta the other 2...

Not even close to a perfect circle...unless they change the weakness and strengths

but remember in EVERY game the starter pokemon are always consider "Very Hard to Replace" hintin at being rare themselves, and in the anime weve only seen an abundance of a couple beginners, even then their numbers were small (not countin Pikachu, hes a rat, rats breed like hell!)

anyone else hope a trainer class Pokemon Trainer will be there now,instead of only in certain places? i hope so, cuz then itd be more realistic, fightin a normal pokemon trainer on a route ;)

Bluerang1 May 12th, 2010 10:13 AM

Regardign the dark skinned person, let me say this again so we can speculate:
  • Will they have a Trainer Class to their own?
  • Will they be one in each Trainer Class? (Breeder, Maniac, etc)
  • Will they still be the normal Trainer Classes but with individual Trainers (their Sprites are individual to them)?
  • Will there be no more Trainer Classes but individual Trainers (Like everyone would be their own person... if you get me.)?

I prefer the last one; to avoid controversy, the third one would be way more practical against the first two.

Secondary typings don't have to follow the triangle, well it never had before.

They did it in Sinnoh and it was great...

SolarAbusoru May 12th, 2010 10:41 AM

I wonder what that is on their wrists.

Hang on, wasn't this issue supposed to tell us how to get Zoroark? That means there is still two more pages to scan.

No they didn't, Steel isn't super effective against Ground so it wasn't a triangle.

Fighting > Steel < Ground

Steel got super effected by both.

I don't get why everyone is hating on the girl's shorts. I mean if they really are teens this time, it's hardly uncommon to see 12+ girls in short shorts.

On an unrelated note, I am actually beginning to fall in love with the grass snake starter. And the awesomer part is it looks quite Ampharos like, Ampharos-(Snake name) Double Team here I come!

It's obviously the new PokéGear/étch. I wonder what's different about it, because it looks identical at the moment.

If you check Serebii, apparently you get Zoroark when sending over the shiny Beasts from the new movie.

Though, I'd like to guess that's ONE of the ways to get it.

Neko Keeshi May 12th, 2010 10:52 AM

I would like to see the new starter, fire type be some kind of big Fire/Dark type Warthog or something. Huge tusks, physical sweeper, ya know? or make a fire/dark tank maybe, staller?

I would also like to see new pokemon to come from the breeding of 2 DIFFERENT pokemon! Example;

Breed a Tauros and a Milktank and get a new kind of normal cow/bull/buffalo pokemon with its own evo like(3 different evos)

I think this would open up alot of new ideas and maybe some of these fusions(the NOT so crazy ones that is) can come to life.

Bluerang1 May 12th, 2010 10:59 AM

So Zorua doesn't evolve to Zoroark? Or would we have to breed to get Zorua?

I think that's still pretty unknown. I think what they described is just a way of getting a Zoroark. To be honest though, I wouldn't be surprised if we had to breed in order to get one.

Also, on Pokebeach it mentions the region being "very far away". SO excited about this! I remember myself and a few others roaming around this idea. Glad it seems to be true. ;D

Sora's Nobody May 12th, 2010 11:07 AM

The towns look amazing, im inlove with the colorful town and the one with the railway...
wait... railway, where going to ride trains :D it might resemble G/s/C/hg/ss but i wouldnt be surprised to see that you can use the rail into everytown

SolarAbusoru May 12th, 2010 11:15 AM

You know, that Railway looks British, the forest looks like a forest from the UK and due to how big the port city is, I wouldn't be surprised if this place was based on the UK, the kingdom of trains, forests and harbourside cities.

Masterge77 May 12th, 2010 11:19 AM

Suprisingly, Serebii saays that the Grass starter is a snake, even though it clearly has arms and legs, I get the feeling that it's final form is going to be a Quetzalcoatl, a mythical creature from ancient mexican beliefs, being a snake with eagle wings, so if I am right (I bet I'm wrong because they never reveal the evolutions of the starters until the game comes out), It would likely be Grass/Dragon or Grass/Flying (most likely the latter type combination cause just about all Dragon Pokemon are Uber and/or Legendary), I also get the feeling that the fire starters final form will be a warthog that is Fire/Ground

I can see it being much more based off American cityscapes and landscapes. Could also be a mix of several different places though.

i rlly hope that the grass's final form is grass/flying or /dragon ... ive been wanting a flying grass starter for a looongg time... but im pretty sure since its an "ivy snake" it'll end up being grass/poison - another bulbasaur =(
