Post it again xD

I think your topic was too complex, mine was generic, and successful.

Xilfer January 9th, 2011 9:46 AM

Do you think Reptillism is a condition for a pokemon to be dragon typed?

No, i mean look at Flygon, Vibrava and a bunch of others, they aren't reptillian, Vibrava and Flygon are based on Antlions and Dragonflies, explaining their type, but Dragonflies aren't reptillian either :P

Totally Ninja'd, YES!

Mew~ January 9th, 2011 9:52 AM

Sorry if I haven't been active enough guy's, i'll try to be.

Do you like Satoshi's Gible in the pokémon anime, and would you have it evolve or not?
I actually found it very funny, like when it hit Piplup with Draco Meteor. I wish he could have evolved it whilst trying to teach it draco meteor like he did with Snowrunt and Ice beam. I hope he decides to bring it with him after Best wishes and evolve it fully to Garchomp.

Amore January 9th, 2011 3:29 PM

Hmmm...I've gotta admit, if I hear Gible evolves, I'll watch the anime again (I'm stopping after Sinnoh ends)

Tony Montana January 9th, 2011 9:35 PM

Which is your favourite evolvable Dragon, and why?

Then I'll go for Dragonair. Same reason I picked Dratini before: I love snakes.

The way Gible's Draco Meteor always lands on Piplup is what I find funniest about Gible. xD Hmm.. I wouldn't mind if Gible evolved. Maybe it could rival Cynthia's Garchomp somewhere in BW. XP

Amore January 11th, 2011 12:58 PM

Never thought about that! After all, Cynthia appears in every region now! However, Ash's going for a "Fresh" start again, just like Nintendo - although Ash cheated, as he brought an overlevelled Pikachu (why it lost to a Snivy, I do not know. Sure, Iron Tail's not very effective and he couldn't use electricity (also not very effective), but Quick Attack ought to have KO'd it easily)

Silhouette January 11th, 2011 2:53 PM

Gah, sorry for inactivity, dying sucks. :P

Anyway, as for the topic, I don't want Ash's Gible to evolve. Maybe sometime in the future if he ever re-trains it (like his Cyndaquil), but I don't want him to have a Garchomp. It seems like once one of his Pokemon evolve, it loses its personality.

Xilfer January 12th, 2011 7:04 AM

You're right Amore, he DID bring over an overleveled Pikachu.....Hmph, stupid cheating sneak like this:

Puts Pikachu in bag
Tells mom that has no pets with for new journey
goes to isshu/unova whatevs.
brings out pikachu
pikachu loses electricity because of zekrom as punishment by mum!

Z-ing!!!

as for gible, having it evolve would have upsides and downsides, upsides is that it would LOOK way more awsome and probably be more powerfull, downsides is i would miss draco meteoring piplup :(

Amore January 12th, 2011 11:50 AM

I do wonder if the anime directors would do something really unusual and keep the old running gags associated with the base form once it's evolved, i.e. It'd be a super-powerful Gabite, but every time Draco Meteor wasn't aimed at an enemy in a battle, it'd hit Piplup - or one meteor would always hit Piplup xD

I mean, they delivered such a poor fate upon Turtwig after it evolved (did you know as a Grotle/Torterra, it has never survived a battle? It also has lost every battle against Paul, and didn't defeat a single opposing pokémon in the Sinnoh League), why not kill Gabite with Piplup-killer gag?

Xilfer January 13th, 2011 8:49 AM

OMG! REALLY?1 I didn't notice that at all, poor Torterra :(
y'know, it's about time Piplup evolved too doncha think, ash got chimchar way after dawn got piplup, and it's already infernape while Dawn still uses lowly piplup...acctually i barely see her use it....
It would make an awsome Prinplup, right guys? with the whirlpool and all, and it would be even more funny because of the proudness that Prinplup are said to have, imagine Prinplup acting that way towards everyone.
Edit: as for dragons....i don't have that much to say... I think i would miss Gible if it evolved...

Amore January 13th, 2011 9:01 AM

Well, the proudness is the reason it didn't evolve...it uses Bide to store all its' evolution energy instead of evolving (because it'd met Kenny's Prinplup, I think). However, it should either be superpowered (I guess it kinda is), or evolve.

tkallab January 13th, 2011 9:23 AM

Ummm, I don't think Piplup is a dragon.
Anyway, I don't really watch the anime, but Gible evolving would make Ash way too strong, which we can't have of course because he can never win the league. I know that much.

Lol, point taken, how about a new topic:

What are your opinions on the new character Iris and her pokemon Kibago?

tkallab January 13th, 2011 9:36 AM

My opinion is just neutral. It's kind of cool she has such a strong Pokémon so early on, but then on the other hand, bleh anime...

Xilfer January 13th, 2011 9:41 AM

Ok, another topic that is more suitable for tkallab.

Who is a better Dragon type user?

Lance?
Drake?
Iris?
Shaga?
Clair?

I think we've had this topic before...possibly, but we didn't include Iris or Shaga.

Amore January 13th, 2011 10:24 AM

Well, I still don't include them as I refuse to accept the existence of Gen V until I own it :)

However, I'm not sure how you mean to classify them as "better" but I like Lance and Drake.

Clair is way too cocky (makes a change for a gym leader, at least) and dresses weird. Even Silver realised she was weird, and that's saying something...

Lance is the original, who had 3 Dragonite at one point, and I love every single one of his team members in both LeafGreen and HeartGold (first round).

Drake has the nostalgia factor for me - Although I was underlevelled, I always swept through the Elite Four in Emerald, only to be stopped by a combination of PP loss (thanks Phoebe) and his dragons being too strong, and me being stumped by the ones that weren't weak to Rock. He has some pretty good pokémon too, particularly when he has a Kingdra.

So, Drake and Lance are No.1, nobody shall ever overcome them, and I don't like Clair, although she'll probably outrank the Gen V ones (I have a feeling these games will be fun, but not favourites in any way)

Xilfer January 13th, 2011 11:36 AM

Ok, i think Iris is dumb, she's a hair girl, even more of a hair girl than Marge simpson or Dawn's mom...
her Kibago...well, i don't have much likeness for Kibago, i totally prefer it's evolutions, that thing better evolve FAST!
All in all she SUCKS!
as for wich is best, i like Lance and Drake too, Clair isn't bad either, but as Amore mentioned she's weird.

For me Lance is the best, with Drake coming close in 2nd place

Ditto. Not to be confused with the Pokemon, Ditto.

I like Lance and Clair the best as dragon users. I wouldn't mind Drake if he had a back story or something, but. . .

Only one thing I can't stand about Lance -- he cheats so badly in GS and HGSS. >:(

Amore January 14th, 2011 1:30 PM

Oh c'mon, he cheats in R/B too, as he has Barrier...but I think that's the only time his cheating is wrong.

I mean, what good is a champion who has 1/2 of his team members as NFEs? And it feels much more epic taking on 3 Dragonite than it does taking on 3 Dragonair...

But I get your point. I just think Nintendo's artistic/game enhancing license makes it acceptable :)

That's not as bad as having a level 40 Dragonite (Rocket Hideout). But in Blue Version, he did use a Full Restore or something like that after I attacked (item priority is higher than any attack o_O).

In short, Lance used AR.

Amore January 14th, 2011 2:32 PM

Oh, I forgot about that...but still, would it look as cool if his Dragonair was following him? Admittedly it wouldn't be too bad if he had Aerodactyl (at least he could still fly that way), but c'mon, Dragonite and Lance go together better than me and pasta bake (And trust me, we got together well. I can eat a 50cm by 30cm by 10cm tray of that stuff).
