In that case, why don't people get pissy that several Pokemon have the same cries? Charizard and Rhydon do. So do Poliwag and Ditto.

Yet no one seems to give a damn. Also, if I remember correctly, Dragonair and Onix sahre the exact same sprite positioning in HG/SS.

@JP: It was actually aimed Pink Squid, but you ninja'd before I could get my post in.

You make absolutely no sense! You're pretty much saying we should be hating on Latias and Latios because they look the same... .just like twins in real life look the same??? Should we hate real life twins because they look similar?
They're posed differently, their colours are different, they're just 'twin' pokemon.

People do not like the way the 3 genies are posed exactly the same, thats people's issues with them, not that their forms look the same, thats fine, I would like it if they were triplet pokemon, just don't use the same sprite and colour it different, you're the one getting all up tight about it, and nit-picking on other people's opinions wow, double standards much??

.....And let's get back on topic.

Seeing as we still don't have Sugumori art for all the legends, I'm still apprehensive about them. Aside from Reshram and Zekrom, the only legend I really like atm is Genosect. The sprites are pretty vague, and it doesn't help that they all have complex designs. That being said, my opinion on them will in all likelihood improve once I get a clearer picture of them.

I will always refer to Kerudio as My little Pony, though. xDDDDD

Obelisk October 13th, 2010 6:37 PM

Genosect's design is pretty awesome. It has Transformers written all over it XD

Looks more like a decepticon of course lol.

Porygon Z October 14th, 2010 10:15 AM

A little speculation.

Who will be the next Event Pokèmon released?

Kerudio, Meloetta or Genosekuto?

As me, I hope it will be Genosekuto.

I love that guy, and I want his Cassettes :D

Or Kerudio. I hate Meloetta :D

Jaiyke October 14th, 2010 11:15 AM

the only legendaries i like are Zekrom Reshiram and the Blue and Green Musketeer Goats xD
all the others can suck a nut v.v

I'd say most likely Kerudio or Meloetta. Genosect will probably be the last one. :P Having to pick between Kerudio and Meloetta though, I'd say it'll probably be Kerudio so that the Three/Four Musketeer group is complete.

I'm not a big fan of Meloetta's regular forme, but the red and black one is really cool looking.

PlatinumDude November 11th, 2010 3:55 AM

Would it be okay if I bumped this...?

Anyway, I'll give my thoughts on the legendary musketeers (Cobalon, Terrakion, Virizion, Keldeo) in competitive terms. Aesthetically, I was surprised when I learned that they were quadrupedal Fighting types. It took me a while to figure out how they were able to use their signature Sacred Sword without having to stand on 2 legs (I know now that they perform the move using their horns).

Cobalon: It's got the same typing as Lucario, but its offenses are weaker. It can take physical hits better than Lucario can, but its Special Defense is a bit exposed, but it can be fixed with Calm Mind.

Terrakion: The only musketeer to have a unique type combination among the four (Cobalon has Lucario's typing, Virizion has Breloom's typing and Keldeo has Poliwrath's typing). Rock/Fighting provides good coverage. Looking at Terrakion's stats and movepool, it does one thing very well: physical sweeping. It can rip holes through most opponents, and can take hits well (though it isn't as bulky as Cobalon or Virizion in the physical and special departments, respectively).

Virizion: Like Breloom, Virizion is Grass/Fighting, giving it a natural resistance to the QuakeEdge combination. Its Defense is low, unfortunately, and Grass/Fighting is resisted by Flying types (who are taken care of by Stone Edge). What I do like about it, though, is its high Special Defense, which is the highest among Grass and Fighting types; that can be amplified further by Calm Mind, but its low Defense is still a problem.

Keldeo: When I first saw it, I thought it looked like some sort of donkey/pony. After seeing it in battle, I developed a newfound respect for it. That's because it learns Sword of Mystery, which works in the same way as Psycho Shock. Its Attack and Special Attack are the reverse of Terrakion's. At a glance, Heart of Justice seems like a waste on Keldeo due to its 72 Attack. But with Swords Dance, that stat can be pushed further.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire November 11th, 2010 12:22 PM

The four musketeers seem like interesting pokemon to train, they all have awesome typing and one great stat (Defense, Attack, Special Attack and I'm not sure on keldo's biggest stat...)

Cobalon has Defense as its highest stat. Terrakion's highest stat is Attack; Virizion for Special Defense and Keldeo for Special Attack.

Devil Flamingo November 11th, 2010 7:30 PM

The only relevant legends are Terakion (non-uber) and Reshiram (uber). Everything else can go die in a fire as far as I'm concerned, XD, especially Kyurem. Zekrom is cool, but idc about it, and the musketeers are okay I guess, but Terakion is the only one I truly like. As for the genies... not my cup of tea, but I don't really hate them either. The Regis were far worse honestly. :>

Haza November 11th, 2010 9:08 PM

Kyurem has to be my favorite of the Dragon Trio... It seems vicious.

It's mine too, but for it's Dragon/Ice and having Kyu in it's name :)
I'm nicknaming mine Kyo after a character in a story of mine who just so happens to be Dragon/ Ice (well he's also part grass but yeah...)

Yuii November 13th, 2010 7:21 PM

Wow, seems like a lot of legendaries. o_o I'm cool with it, the more the better! :D

vava18 November 14th, 2010 2:39 AM

Tornelos? True, I do like it because it's the first ever pure Flying type, but its color scheme is ugly in my eyes. Competitively, it's the least used because of its shallow offensive movepool.

Ho-Oh November 14th, 2010 5:10 AM

I agree, I hate the design of it, I thought it'd look angelic and instead we get... that.

But meh, it's a good start for the future at least. XD

Zelda November 19th, 2010 2:48 PM

Just a quick note since the other thread discussing Victini, Zekrom and Reshiram died, we'll just discuss all of the legendaries for B/W here instead. This makes it a bit better anyway; I saw no reason for one with just those three legendaries and the rest here. n_n

Aside from that, I'm pretty satisfied with the legendaries. Meloetta would be one of my favorites, I just love its lady-like look. Being a psychic type, I'd say it has the calm/careful appearance fit for it. Also, you can tell these games want you to go far in levels with these Pokémon as Meloetta learns Perish Song at LV 85. o-o; As for Meloetta's other forme (the Step Forme), I find it have a more old/grandma style. XD; I suppose that just fits the fighting type all the more though. The step forme has a more rough appearance to fit its typing as well, but I prefer the voice forme a lot more. And for those who are curious, the step forme is the Meloetta with the red string-ish hair while the voice forme has green string-ish hair with attractive baby blue eyes. :P

Y'know, I really didn't like this legendary at first... but then I saw this:



Doesn't that just make it look so elegant? ~<3
And its cry is so beautiful. x3

Reshiram

I just find that Pokemon weird looking because it has bat arms (in my opinion) the only good thing about it is that its all white and has nice blue eyes, I would love to have that as a doll though just because of its eyes


:t354:TG

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire November 20th, 2010 12:46 PM

Rashiram's wing are kind of bat like, I barely noticed that now that you mention it Tatsu

too humanoid....beware of furries

Mirimaju November 20th, 2010 6:54 PM

When I first saw that pokemon I though how beautiful would it be in a contest and how I didn't want it to be legendary so I could get one early on in the game or something like that. I know it changes types between both forms. I'm excited to get this one =) The pure flying type one... all I gotta say is FINALLY!!!

Yeah it took five generations for them to make a pure type pokemon though this does give me hope that we might have a flying eeveelution next generation :)...
I really want to capture a Kyurem it's just so awesome :D!
