As far as I see, these Pokemon are just average, nothing special. o3o
|
(I hope) as said before, the pokemon don't even look like pokemon. They... they don't even look like anything. They're just... flat out ugly. I'm sorry, if most of gen 5 is going to look like that... bleh. Like, a coffin with ghost arms... really? Someone's been scraping the barrel lately. I'm sure they're'll be more to look up on (such as more designs similar to Reshiram/Zekrom... hopefully) but the revealed pokemon are just hideous. The colours are ugly, too. Seriously, I think they're slightly running low on their imagination battery. A gear pokemon named Gear and a coffin with ghost arms. How fascinating. Have they even covered all the animals in the real world? Why resort to ghost arms on a coffin?!
Hopefully the displayed pokemon have some more back-story to them (or more merit in typing/stats/move pool), otherwise they're plain ugly. Just my opinion based on what we were were given... EDIT: That girl-looking thing is a Pokemon?! Oh, boy... sending out humans into battle, now, are we? If it isn't a girl, maybe I'm just blind, but that looks very similar to a human being.. |

I hate everyone but they axe, a few hours ago this I thought nintendo was "innovating" with this game, by innovating they meant "Completely Destroying your childhood and having our franchise commit suicide, have fun with the dead body- we call it Pokemon Black/White!" They show us the cute Pokes first so we're hooked and we want to buy the game, then they have the ugly demons jump straight out of Pandora's box, nintendo can't hide it forever!

Doesn't seem imaginitive at all to me, and i just don't like it, hopefully other Pokemon don't look like this.

I don't see anything wrong with humanoid-like Pokémon being used in this generation. I think it would make the game more diverse, since that's something that's lacking in the Pokémon world. At least they're trying something new, and although the Pokémon showed so far aren't exactly up to par with everyone's expectations, they're going out on a limb. I think they know that these designs aren't going to be very accepted by a lot of those who play, but with the storyline and all, I think they're aiming for more so of monsterous Pokémon. They've already admitted to a darker storyline. |

But that girl-looking thing clearly looks like a woman in a dress, with those... spiky protrusions on her head meant to be her freaky hair style. Of course, maybe I'm just being quick to judge, but I definitely see a girl in a dress. And also, I know my rant was mainly on the coffin thing, but that other... thing looks horrid, in my opinion. The second "foe" of the first image. It looks really... odd. The mole looks rather simple. A basic animal dipped into a dark rainbow, and then equipped with metal claws and head/face protection. But that... what is it supposed to be, a mantis? That's just ludicrous. Some of you may be all, "they're trying something new for once!" That understandable. I'm not holding a pair of "nostalgia goggles" as I've accepted gens beyond the second, but... that thing just drives me up the wall and back. |

Of course, I'm exaggerating, but everything still seems rather Pokemon World to me. So what if there was a demon fox pokemon? Dusknoir is said to capture people within its belly, and drifloon is said to carry off children to distant places. Last time I checked, I still ventured through places named "Floaroma Town". Having a few darker pokemon does not make the game more evil, nor the story line. I believe it's been established that there will be definite changes, but more evil? nah. That crown boy doesn't scare me, nor does he/she seem more evil than Giovanni. Giovanni got his minions to kill a marowak which haunted you in a tower. Hell, Cyrus summoned a pokemon which created a portal into a different dimension. Some (wo)man mischievously marveling a glowing crown does not scare me. |
Well, the seven other normal pokemon CoroCoro revealed a while back where better. My top five list of 5gen pkmn this far is:
1. Shimama 2. Pokabu 3. That Sarcophagus thingy. 4. Hihidaruma 5. That ectoplasm bear thingy |
well i never liked any of the human like pkmn in the 1st place. none of them, inlcuding 1st gens. and that little girl thing looks EXACTLy like a human, not just something based on one.
im not nostalgia blinded, i like the others |

Also I'd say the horned Dragon thing is no more detailed than Tryannitar. But Tryanitar sure isn't Ekans. :P Quote:

It's also irratible when people see new Pokemon and the first thing they do is compare them to past Pokemon. I mean when the starters came out half the posts were about how they just looked like a mix between x pokemon and x pokemon. Why can't they just be their own pokemon? Anyways the Puppet one and the spiky red and blue thing still has yet to grow on me but everytime I look at the Mantis horned axe Dragon thing it grows on me even further. Man I want one!! I'm think Bug-Ground type for it though actually. It looks like some sort of desert creature to me. |
To be honest, they don't look like pokemon. They look like something you would dream up in a nightmare. I plan on buying the game but now looking at these pokemon, they make me not want to buy this game. Yuck

The potential for Pokemon is infinate. I'm happy to see Game Freak is leaving its safe-zone. I think people just need to get used to these new designs, I think this generation will be well loved once people warm up to it. This generation is exactly what I've been hoping for. |
I think that Game Freak is releasing some of the more chaotic and freakish Pokémon after showing some of the simplistic ones like Mamepato, Chiramii, Mun'na, Shimama, etc.
I don't want to worry that this gen's Poké will sucks, there has to be some pleasant surprises here and there. And I guess Game Freak is showing some of the worse Pokémon right now for the trailer because we have already seen some pretty good ones. And I don't think any of the Pokémon I have seen will grow on me. Way too chaotic, WAAAAAAY too chaotic. |

It will be like every other Gen - you will love one Pokémon, even if you hate all of the rest. |
I agree with MistahDude. I believe that GF is just showing a different array of pokes in order to appeal to a different array of people, It's not some "scheme" to trick people into buying the game or whatever.

The sarcophagus pokemon is going to be awesome, as well as the dragon mantis pokemon is just epic. The rest don't look to bad ether, all in all i've been pretty pleased with the 5th gen to date.

People who say these don't look like pokemon need to stop. Stop looking to the past cause it time for change. Playing games with the same simple looking and not so different from the last is going to be boring. There is always going to be change once you like it or not. I'd get used to these Pokemon if I were you.
