What do you think of Reshiram and Zekrom?
What do you think of these two new legendaries, good or bad or even worse?
|
they are pretty good but one of them has the same body of palkia
|
Some part of them can be good, some can be worse than previous one.
|
Yeah, they look pretty good. the Black version looks the best in my opinion.
|
No other than awesome! Though the design is too complicated so I can't draw them. But still like both!
|
They look too much like Palkia. They're also pretty similar. I really hope that they change. :/
|
I think they look pretty cool. Although they do resemble the fouth gen legendaries abit imo.

Pretty tight...Reshiram pwns Zekrom imo though.
|
i like them both! yay for black and white!
|
I see a close resemblance to Palkia, but I must admit that it still looks awesome.
|
Im pretty sure zekrom will be electric type, it just confirmed it imo with the news story on serebii.
|
Zekrom reminds me a lot of Palkia in some way, he looks like a total beast.
|
Zekrom is EPIC!
… Reshiram not so much :\ but anyways, I really hope that Zekrom is an electric-type so it can be a personification of thunder or something…I have to say that I'm really(x10) disappointed that they're both dragon-types as of now… that sucks :( |
The more I compare him to Palkia the less he looks like her. It's crazy how awesome the Sugimari art looks when it is the current generation compared to the last, but when a newer Pokemon comes out, then the last generations start to look even older. That's how I feel when comparing Zekrom and Palkia.
|
People go way over the top when a new generation comes out lol.
Hm, I think Gamefreak is smarter than to add three typed pokemoninto the game and piss everyone off. Or maybe there are some people who want three typed pokemon. Why not? x) |
MY DRILL IS ONE THAT WILL PIERCE THE HEAVENS!
(Reshiram's heaven, cuz it totally looks like the drill fits into Reshiram's...tail thing) Totally gonna nickname them Gurren and Lagann. or Antispiral on Zekrom if it fits |
they look like freaks of nature. just hope some of the regulars are as great

this will never happen it opens the door for x6 advantageswarping the game beyon comprehension
|
Both look epic, but I like Zekrom more.... probably since it's so much like Palkia, who I also love. =P
I'm not surprised that Nintendo hasn't lost its creativity. xD Zekrom being part electric would be awesome! |
x8 weaknesses are just too much, man.
|
I am definitely going to have to choose Zekrom.
|
I too think that Zekrom is a very good choice.
I feel that most of the people like ZEKROM. ;) |

Zekrom looks cool.
Reshiram just looks like a pokemon fusion gone wrong. |
Well I guess I'm the only one, and I expect people to be like "wtf are you talking about???" but... I really am not impressed with these legends. They honestly look to me like they belong in some kind of mythical creature smackdown game. Like WWE for fantasy creatures or something. Say what you want, but this is my own personal opinion. I'm especially disappointed that they decided to go with Dragons again for the legends. I was hoping for something different.
|
This is the announcement I have been waiting for all year! The legendaries are one of the main reasons I'm still into Pokemon... :D Reshiram and Zecrom FTW!
As for critique...those are the best tails on any animal/beast/monster I have ever seen... I've always wanted a drill-tail concept, but I'd figured it would get ruined if implemented... but these TURBINE TAILS look EPIC! Both Pokemon look awesome! Game Freak is on a fiery streak so far with their release of Generation V Pokemon! I'm extremely annoyed by the switch thing, though... Confusion ensues... Reshiram looks mystical, while Zecrom looks like a freaking threat. You would not want to encounter that [Zecrom] anywhere (unless it was on your side :D). I love the names as well, as they signify that each Pokemon is turning to their respective color. Reshiram reminds me of the concept of reishi from Bleach, coupled with the term 'ram', resulting in the Pokemon personification of spiritual energy ramming into your enemies. Which is freaking awesome. I like how Zecrom feels when you say it. :) Something powerful and enigmatic, yet seldom seen. Originally, I wanted a 'u' in there to make Zecurom, but now I feel that would distort the name too much for my liking. As much as I like Dragons, this typing thing (which isn't actually confirmed, as these guys may be dragon-like similar to Charizard and Gyarados) is a bit much. I'm wondering what their sibling, if any exists, will be... Zecrom being dual-type Dragon/Electric or Dragon/Light would be interesting. Well, at least the Dragon-type matches the epicness of Reshiram and Zecrom in a way... 2 Dragon trios could be awesome, though, if implemented correctly... Either Reshiram, Zecrom, or their 'sibling' should learn Luster Purge... Fits with the whole monochrome idea. These guys made me have an idea that in the plot, there should be an event where one of them causes the overworld and battle scenery to go monochrome/black-and-white for a while. Then it'd sort of feel like you were playing a Generation I game in Gen V! Ugh...the version switch thing is just what bothers me. How can you have a vicious menace like Zecrom representing the color white? From the outset, one could think it was full of malice or something from its portrayal/design... I get the yin-yang symbolism, but still... :\ Keep up the excellent work with Pokemon designs, Game Freak! :D |
I think the the third one should be gray with purple eyes, and should be Psychic/Dragon or Ice/Dragon.
|
At first, I thought Reshiram was so cool, but then I realized how epic Zekrom's design is. But both are effin awesome. and epic really.
|
it looks like ill be buying white then, especially if Zekrom turns out to be Dragon/Electric. Awesome typing there.
im guessing reshiram will be like Dragon/Ice then, it just looks like an ice type to me. and we need more ice legends (besides Arty) or some other unique combo |
I will be getting Pokemon White probably. Zekrom looks so strong I like it instead of Reshiram.
|
I don't see where you guys are seeing any resemblance to Palkia. I see none. ):
Anyway, as for my thoughts, I can really see Zekrom as a Dragon/Electric type. Look at it's tail... does nothing about that scream "generator" to you? And the appendage on its head looks like a lightning bolt, too.. And if Zekrom is indeed Dragon/Electric, Reshiram must be Dragon/Fire, I think. His tail, in comparison with Sir Generator Tail, is like a celestial torch. And then look at this: Quote:
|
They're awesome :3
I lovelovelove Reshiram. I'm definately getting Pokemon Black now haha. (btw this is my first post here, so hi! *waves*) :D |
I'll get Zekrom, giant dragon robots of destruction is a must have. Reshiram is OK, I like the wings and the tail.
|
why the **** is there a jet turbine on Zekrom's @$$??
|
Quote:
because pokemon can do what ever they want when eve |
Well I didn't know which version to get but these legendaries have made the decision for me. Pokemon Black it is! Reshiram is just amazing!
|
So far, I prefer the look of Zekrom. But, once I know the second types, I'll be sure which I prefer. I hope none are like Palkia, whose types didn't complement each other well
|
The black one looks cool and scarry, but I like the white one, too. Maybe I'll get both.
|
...I just realised something about Zekrom. Remember that rumour about him being an electric type? And remember the screenshot from inside that cave with all the electricity being emitted by rocks, that some people suspected to be Zekrom's lair?
Well, what if Zekrom is based around the concept of lodestone? A lodestone or loadstone is a naturally magnetized piece of the mineral magnetite, and most of the pictures I've seen of lodestone are a similar colour to Zekrom. This would work well with the theory that Reshiram is based on natural occuring energy (based on his torch-looking tail). |
I like ur Lodestone theory... here is a good pic of the resemblance.

Wow. I think you may have just hit the nail on the head there. I've been hoping zekrom is part electric since we found out about that blog, and this just seems all add up. |
I am so gunna buy both games!
|
I think I like both of them, maybe Reshiram more, although I'm going to buy Pokémon White for sure!
|
They look boring... Sorry to all who are impressed.
|
Well if Zekrom is Electric/Dragon or Dragon/Electric (doesn't matter really) - then I still like him. He's still uber smexy <3 - and he still looks bad...
I just hope he doesn't suck combat-wise. |
Quote:
i am so blind. your theory works perfectly. but i will still be pulling for dark and light type dragon legends. ;) |
If it is true that Zekrom is Dragon/Electric definitely that one, otherwise it depends on what its type is vs Reshiram's type and of course aesthetic appeal.

Comming from here
Zerkom = Electric/Dragon Reshrim = Fire/Dragon Two unique combinations that haven't been done yet. Their abilities Turbo Blaze and Terra Voltage sound awesome. What can we expect of these two? |
Terra Voltage, hopefully it let's Zekrom's electric attacks reach the ground pokemon and hurt them :P
|
I'm positive that Terra Voltage is probably going to allow him to hit Ground-Types with Electric-Type moves which is gonna be quite impressive.
|
And Turbo blaze might make all Fire attacks hit first?
I dunno |
Or maybe using Fire-Type moves will raise Reshiram's speed...
|
Why not...
Turbo Blaze: Similar to normal Blaze, but effect happens when he has more HP and it raises his Fire-Type attacks A LOT more? Or maybe they did make a new type that Fire doesn't normally effect and Reshiram's ability counters it?
|
HO ARCEUS
RESHIRAM'S EVEN SEXIER THAN GIRATINA ...sweet mother of sake, that's gonna hurt him :-( The black one is weird. I bet Reshi-san would throw awesome parties~ but again this will seriously tick off giratina... |
Quote:
WAAH TAAAAAAHH!!!! |
Quote:
N...noooo! Ram-chin isn't cuter than Gira-tan! It's a pretty close call, though. And I'm definitely getting Pokemon Black. Although, I am disappointed that he's a Fire/Dragon-type. I was really hoping he'd be an Ice-type. |
Finally! A Fire/Dragon Pokemon!!! :) However, I don't understand why it's fire/dragon. It doesn't look very firey (is that even a word? :P) to me... :\ It looks more Dragon/Flying or Dragon/Normal. :\

I was pretty close I had guessed Ice/dragon as one of the types not Electric/dragon

My own post, #584, posted on May 31st:

Anyway, do you think there will be a third creature to round out the trio? Maybe they are going to do another generation like G/S, which only had two mascot pokemon and borrowed the Crystal mascot from a different trio. If they were going to include another Legendary Dragon for "Gray" Version, what type combo could they use? Off the top of my head, I could only see a Ground/Dragon which would be strong against both. Any other ideas? |
im not surprised about their types, Reshiram's tail resembles a fire torch and Zekrom's tail resembles a jet engine (hence electricity)
|
why?
why gamefreak why? i wanted a light ype....................... soooooo badly.................... fire dragon? why...................... |
Quote:
|
You guys probably have seen on Bulbapedia, Reshiram going to be a Dragon/Fire type and Zekrom a Dragon/Electric type ! No new types, yeah...As mentioned above :cccc
And, I'm "glad" Reshi is taller than Zekrom xD I personally would have prefered it the Dragon was their second type, not the first :c Makes them weak to ice and all ;w; But at least Reshiram isn't "Dragon/ice" so Zekrom can kill it easily xD *Reshifan* |
I think the white one looks like moltres
|
I'm confused by the boxes as to which game has which, but Reshiram is my definite pick.
|
Quote:
zekrom is in white |
Although I really want a new type, I had a feeling Reshiram wasn't going to be it. I- - I still have hope (hnnnnng).
I think the third mascot will be Dragon/Psychic, only because there is a very blatant pattern going on here: both Ram-chin's and Rom-chan's types are a form of energy. The third dragon could be a Psychic-type, to represent psychic energy? (Or maybe it'll be a new type woohoo.... probably not, I know.) |
Quote:
I've been skeptical about a Dragon/Fire combo Pokemonfor a while, since dragons are commonly depicted breathing fire, so it seems sort of redundant IMO. But Reshiram seems to execute it perfectly. :D With its TURBINE TAIL OF DOOM resembling a torch, and being a sort of personfication of white fire, it just seems to fit. And Zecrom+Thunder+Electricity complements each other perfectly (the name sounds computer-ish, even!). For some reason, I've wanted to teach Zecrom Thunder ever since I saw it. Dragon/Electric looks like it will be very fun to use (reminds me of Cyclohm from the Smogon Create-A-Pokemon Project...) I really hope the third mascot legendary sibling isn't Dragon/Water. It makes sense with fire, water, and electricity, though, but Dragon/Water is popping up a bit too much now (and we just had Palkia feature that combo, with Kingdra tagging along from Gen II) :\ Still, I have a feeling that all of the Gen V legendaries will be awesome! |
Quote:
A full list of weaknesses: Reshiram: Rock, Ground, Dragon Zekrom: Ice, Ground, Dragon |

Quote:
Anyway, Reshiram and Zecrom are going to be awesome in battle. Maybe the third sibling should be Dragon/Ground, to exert strength over both? But we've already seen that type combo twice (Flygon and Gablias/Garchomp, the latter of which it doesn't really fit, IMO)... Otherwise, the typing should be a combo that isn't too strong or too weak against the other 2 combos... |
Zekrom's Terra Voltage Ability!
It was revealed in the CoroCoro magazine on June 11th 2010 that Zekrom is Electric/Dragon and the Black Yin pokemon. It was also revealed that he has a new ability called Terra Voltage.
Terra - noun earth; land Voltage - noun electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts I think that this ability allows Zekrom to hit Ground type Pokemon with Electric type moves. What do you guys think? |
A large gray with purple eyes dragon of Ice/Dragon typing would be orgasmic! It could represent balance between the two.
|
Quote:
|
That's one way to look at it.
By the definitions provided, I'm thinking something along the lines of boost speed when hit by ground attacks or I really don't know...make electric attacks stronger after Ground attacks. All seem wierd and we don't know their English names. These were just released after all and not all have been translated. Look at Sunny Day. Its Jap name is Clear Skies. We just have to wait for another update to see what it does. |
Pikachu aim for the horn! 'nuff said!
|
It seems like one way to look at it. It's completly DUMB for Nintendo to release a new ability without saying what it does. And, yes, I know they've always done that, but it shows stupidity.
|
Quote:
|
I'm just disappointed that neither of them levitate, especially since they both end up with noticeable weaknesses to ground-type attacks. >_>
...unless Terra Voltage and Reshiram's TurboBlaze are both akin to Motor Drive, except activated by ground-type attacks, effectively giving both of them an immunity to Ground-type attacks, and a chance to power up their signature attacks in the process. :P |
:o i was confused why zekrom was in whtie version but its alternative :P i dint thought the moves wud be electric
|
I was actually thinking along the same lines. Ground types would be susceptible under Terra voltage. However, we don't know what the USA name is so obviously we're unsure.
|
Oh snap. How clever of you! This is most likely very true :)
|
for me zekroms kind of a dragon and dark type, does it match pokemon black version and zekrom being dragon and dark?
|
Quote:
|
Also it's CONFIRMED to be Electric/Dragon, not dark.
|
...
Reshiram is definitely a boy. I'm afraid if I tell you why, I would get banned :S
|
Quote:
|
So if we go by the theory that Reshiram, being Fire/Dragon, represents natural light...
And Zekrom, being Electric/Dragon, represents artificial light... Then what's the third one? Pokebeach claims to have information saying that it will be a green Cobra thing. But what other type of light could it represent? I'm thinking biological light, like the kind you find with fireflies and anglerfish. Maybe the next legend will be Bug/Dragon? |
Bug/Dragon... is just impossible. I mean weaknesses and such...would be greatly flawed.
It'll either be a dark/psychic/ice/something else I'm betting. |
NEW IN!
Reshiram is A Dragon And FIRE TYPE. Zekrom is a Dragon And ELECTRIC TYPE. ( Sorry if i have the names mixed up, check Seribii for full details ) |
I like this idea
From Serebii (I love aimlessly browsing their forums and finding great stuff :laugh:)
Quote:
I'd love this to be true, beats good/evil to me :) And it makes so much perfect sense. Really nice creative idea :D |
I really doubt it's past and future kind of thing...brings dialga to mind... though there is lots of nature in the region and industry as well...So maybe it's Wild life vs. Industrial life...reminds me of Hoenn in a way...
|
Hmm... Sounds very unrealistic in my opinion.
Reshiram is in no way glowing in red except in that scan. It's eyes are actually blue. Zekrom is in no way glowing in blue except in that scan. It's eyes are actually red. The two Pokemon are in no way related to being the representatives of the past and future. Yin and Yang means they can represent Light and Dark, and a lot of other things, but this is too far-fetched. Really, the good evil idea is awesome this time around, with rumors floating about how your good or bad decisions can influence the plot of the game. |

That one electric cave.
OMG that one electric cave is SO Zekrom's home. You can tell from Zekrom's ability, TerraVoltage.
