But...even with their body movements I still can't get much of a gist. I'm dim at what they're trying to say. But I say, I'm looking forward for the future of Pokemon, where the Pokemon speaks human language and humans speak...Pokemon language. xD

So we'll rattle on with our names? "Dia diamond diamond mon mon diamond!" XD

I believe they also convey their language by attacking like that Tangrowth in the anime, "ME WANT YOUR ENERGY. ME GIGA DRAIN YOU!" And what have we not in the games, Pokemon a-hopping out of grass~ c:

Also do I see no point in Pokemon NPCs who just stand there forever repeating their name over and over again each time you talk to it? Like "Peeko!" xD

Zeffy October 22nd, 2011 7:49 PM

I imagine the future games being a bit different if that'd happen. Like you were a different boy with telekinetic abilities which makes you able to talk and understand Pokemon language and discovered the truth about the language so you go on an epic journey to teach humans how they are supposed to speak. WITH THE POKEMON HELPING YOU HUZZAH!

But Pokemon can already understand humans, so why do humans need to change their speech? It's Pokemon that do :(

Shining Raichu October 23rd, 2011 6:12 PM

Perhaps Meowth should get Team Rocket some money by teaching human speech at a Pokemon school XD

Or heck, abuse his Pay Day move!! XD

Ciax October 23rd, 2011 11:48 PM

Apparently meowth cant learn pay day because of the effort he used learning to speak and walk like a human. Meowth is my favourite pokemon in the anime, much better than pikachu.

I didn't say that humans need to change their speech. I never said anything about that. It was supposed to be a joke that everything in the Pokemon world future is not the same as the present. But we never know...

did you know that there is enough Pokémon cries out there to make almost 10 minutes of audio? I used a program that combines multiple wav files into one. combined all the cries of all Pokémon to date... the result: 9 Minutes and 46 seconds!!!

Well there are some gameplay things that can't be ported exactly in the anime, you know... and that's natural. They'd disrupt the flow, and in this case, J&J's money bust routine xD

I like to keep the anime and games separate because the anime is really annoying. And I'd much rather have my Meowth know Pay Day and be able to evolve; that move is an awesome moneymaker in game... I had enough money in Leaf Green to actually buy the coins needed for Ice Beam when I first got to Celadon.

I know what you mean, I used it all the time in Red to get money so I didn't have to keep battling the Elite 4. I'm so glad it was a TM in that game.

I second the notion~!! :D The Meowth line was my favourite feline Pokemon family. I didn't really like the rest, maybe Skitty but it sucks at battling, Glameow is just eeww and Purrloin is a purple punching-bag. .3.

Zeffy October 25th, 2011 4:18 AM

Hah, all these talk about Meowth using Payday makes me want to play Pokemon FR again tbqh. ;~;

Truality October 25th, 2011 5:11 AM

You guys sound as if the Pay Day mechanics were changed in the later generations. Were they? Because one way or another I never used it or seen it in my HG and W.

There were changes in the amount of money you received due to items though.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ October 25th, 2011 8:42 AM

Actually the dollar amount for Pay Day was 2x (level) for Gen I and II and 5x (level) for Gen III and after. And this does come from Bulbapedia.

Bulbapedia also says Pay Day's Japanese name is "Coin For a Cat". Somehow I just find that really hilarious. xD

Whenever after battle it described the player picking up the money, I always imagine some clumsy idiot bending over and picking hundreds of coins off the floor one at a time as if playing 52 Pickup. xD

Truality October 25th, 2011 8:31 PM

So it was actually buffed? That's a good thing.

Also lol, first time I see the Gen V Pay Day animation. Awesome.

Honestly it would be cool if they just kept on powering up this move little by little until finally it actually became a useful battling move. I would love to actually use Pay Day. xD I literally haven't even seen it since Generation II.
They could do this with lots of weak gimmicky moves because gimmicky = awesome but weak = not awesome. :c

And yes, it is a super super super awesome animation. :3

Eh, I thought he ment from Gen 3 and on due to the mention of FR. But thanks for the correction.

Bulbapedia is just so helpful. :D

Zeffy October 26th, 2011 2:10 AM

*people

People made bulbapedia therefore it is the people who made it who are helpful! :3

Ciax October 26th, 2011 2:22 AM

I seriously think I visit bulbapedia more than facebook. I use it for everything from looking at movesets and natures to just reading about the anime characters. It is probably the best pokemon website ever

I used to do that.

But when I get the hang of it, I sort of memorized important moves that most Pokemon should know in certain situations. Though I still use it for the occasional check for anime stuff, but that rarely happens, if at all.
