B/W Evolutions Discussion
I made a new one since the old one died quite a while ago. >_>
Link:http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=233167 So, this Gen, there has definitely been a lot of changes in evolution. An interesing one was specific trades. Kaburumohttp://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/c/ca/Spr_5b_588.pngtraded specifically with Chobomakihttp://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/9/90/Spr_5b_616.png results in Kaburumo evolving into Shuburagohttp://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/0d/589.png And Chobomaki evolving into Agirudaahttp://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/4/43/617.png Feebas evolving into Milotic by trading it with a Clean Scale. Which makes it a lot easier for most of us. Eevee evolves into Glaceon leveling up near an Icy Rock in the Ridge Basement Eevee evolves into Leafeon leveling up near a Moss Rock in the Yaguruma Forest. Magneton and Nosepass evolve into Magnezone and Probopass by leveling in the Electric Rock cave instead of Mt. Coronet. The main thing that caught my attention was higher evolution levels. For example: Monozu evolving into Jiheddo at level 50 and Jiheddo evolving into Sazandora at level 64. Didn't this seem abnormal to you guys? Many basic forms of Pokemon this Gen evolve into their next form in their 50s, while in the previous Gens, I believe the latest was level 40. I actually like having later evolution levels. You can bond more with your Pokemon, and it just feels good to know you've accomplished that. Besides, most people who battle with the pokemon they're leveling want to get it too level 100. It's just the same thing, but evolving later. But if you just want to evolve it for your Pokedex, or just to say " I have a Sazandora!" then it is definitely a big pain. Anyway, so basically discuss about Pokemon Evolution. Do you like the higher evolution levels and/or other methods of evolution? Discuss! :D |
I like how Milotic is easier to get in Gen V because maxing out its beauty condition was a pain. I don't like higher evolutionary levels because I want my Pokemon to be in their full forms before the Pokemon League.
Hitomoshi into Ranpuura (level 41) is pushing the high evolutionary level concept, but the Monozu (level 50 and 64) and Meraruba (level 59) lines are just too insane for me to comprehend. |
I'm glad to see that they figured out a way to get our Grass and Ice eeveelutions in Bw instead of trading them like that from DPPt like they did with HgSs (which made me sad to not be able to get Leafeon and Glaceon on there :( ) :)

I realize is on a completely new continent and all, but honestly, how can Mamanbou not be an evolution of Luvdisc? It's simply too similar. And same with Afro Bull (I forgot it's actual name), it should be an evo of Tauros. ;-;
|
One bad thing about so many Pokemon requiring such high levels to evolve is that you can't really use them in the main story unless you grind for a long time. So you can't really experience a lot of the great new Pokemon in the story, which is a shame.

B&W changed that mass-grinding thing quite drastically. |

And a mass amount of grinding isn't fun and should not be necessary. Even with Tabunne. |
Just reminding you guys about the hidden away experience points thread, incase discussion heads that way. :)
I'm quite surprised that the evolution levels are that high, but then again, most of the Pokemon that have high evolution levels, except for probably Ononokusu, I won't be using, so yeah :D |
Anywho, one thing I do like is that Janovy evolves at level 36, just like his Fire-type and Water-type equivalents. It gives a better sense at equality, unlike in RBY and DPPt where the middle-stage Grass-type starter evolved earlier than the others...
I also like the method to evolve Chobomaki and Kaburumo. Very creative imo. |

Yeah, 55 as the highest evolutionary level was beaten already. |

I will have some hard work evolving the Unova pokemon and even more filling up the BW National dex... |

I always try to but never seem to make it... |

Though it is a Pseudo legendary (explains it having the highest evolution level out of all BW pokemon (and all pokemon...) ) :) |
I'll give my thoughts on the evolving legendary. |
Quote:
But don't you think that would ruin the purpose of the word legendary? |
Well, actually I think there should eventually be a legendary that evolves, but I do agree that "small" legendary pokemon are very powerful. Mew, Shaymin, they're all great pokemon and I'm hoping one day they will decide to make one evolve.
|
The idea of an evolving legendary is actually sound. I mean, the idea of a legendary has already been horribly watered down with each passing game Nintendo pushes out, how is it legendary is everyone has one? But to complete a certain series of events that seem tedious and impossible to do without a guild just to make the legendary appear, and to make it go further by doing even more to unlock a evolution would be pretty darn cool.
Sheesh, I’d love to make MewTwo (still the most powerful pokemon in the world in my opinion) able to channel his “limitless” power enough to even control his own evolution to a higher, more refined form. That... And to have him wear his armor... Stuff looked awesome! |

Look at the legendary cats of Jhoto, they were stupidly hard to catch because you couldn’t track them down... That’s how it should be I think, save for harder to set off them roaming around the world, hidden. I’d be overjoyed with that. |
I guess one evolving legendary would be fine. But if they make it a habit it wouldn't be as interested in each one.
|
Soooo many Evolution add-ons. Actually Im quite disappointed with the Monozu family.

If Im not mistaken, this is the first pokemon that takes so long to get to its final stage. Well that proves it. Dragon Pokemon are not meant for patient people lol. 64, seriously Game Freak? Seesh! I think Generation 5 proved to be the most challenging so far. |

But by the time you get it the Storyline is nearly over, which kind of...Sucks. Unless you grind grind grind, you probably won't have a Sazando until after you beat N.

alternative in the Axew line. The quality of our attack stat and movepool is on par with that of the pseudo-legendary pokemon, we just don't need to be trained as much before we become sweeping machines. I'm just as useful, if not more useful than Hydreigon. /rivalry |
