Amg, I love this! Especially the Haunter and Gengar eating cake! And Dusclops playing the piano, paha. I feel sorry for Drifblim not being aloud in! :( Drifloon is in though <3 Darkrai looks creepy in there... Begging to be a Ghost type tbh :/

anyway, the pics are flooding yeah. NEW TOPIC:

Giratina- Altered Form, or Origin Form?

I prefer the origin form simply because it is in Platinum.

[email protected]*inverted*EvE December 10th, 2011 2:26 AM

XD i love that episode its one of my all-time fav's they look so sad there that i felt bad about ash leaving them, so bad that i wanted to hug them right then and there XP

Palladium December 10th, 2011 2:38 AM

The flying one, because imo Levitate > Pressure and I like his design better
Also I liked the pic of Lyra(or is it Kris?) and Morty. Who called her?

Otherworld9) December 10th, 2011 8:37 AM

In my opinion, both are fine. When it comes to the games, the altered form is beast. When it comes to imagining myself with it and trainer roleplaying...if even possible that is....then origin form is just amazing since it looks so amazing and how it looks so graceful when flying.....(movie memories)

Squirrel December 10th, 2011 4:20 PM

On the topic, I don't have much of a preference either way. Giratina for me isn't that cool of a Pokemon, it's the only Ghost type I don't like D: Although if I had to choose, I'd go with the land forme as it's a lot more powerful and presents a much larger presence to those around it.

Yup. Competitively, I like using levitate over Pressure since it gives a Ground immunity to Giratina that Giratina is normally scared of. But in-game, I like to see my opponents use struggle.

a land-based ghost presents a more powerful aura than a flying one? ( or levitating for that matter) our opinions differ my friend.

Well, it seems more of a substantial opponent if the very ground quakes before it when it is summoned (in my opinion!). Whereas is its flying, in my mind it just seems a lot less threatening. I dunno, I think the flying version just looks a little odd to me. :3

It does actually, or to me it does. Say......what Ghost Pokemon seems Overrated to you all? And what pokemon is Underrated? I'm not sure if this question was asked really....

Overrated Ghost Pokemon for me is defined by Giratina. I hate that thing, it's barely even powerful :p In a nice way! ;D Underrated Ghost Pokemon makes me think of Sableye, that Pokemon can deal a lot of unexpected trauma. Its typing is perfect defensively and its wide move pool allows for a lot of devastation!

Agree with every word. Giratina is overly overrated, while Sableye is underated a lot. I loved Sableye...and I still do a tiny pinch.

Agree with the Underrated and Overrated. I'm not really a big fan of Giratina also. (but I love the origin formes design)

Squirrel December 12th, 2011 8:24 AM

On the above topic I think Spiritomb is also pretty over rated - it's used a lot due to its typing but it really doesn't get that good moves or stats to help out, I much prefer using Sableye as a Ghost/Dark type :3 Also, how the heck does Spiritomb use a punch attack? xD And how does Golurk use Fly? lol.

To me, all ghosts seem to fly...being ghosts. Even though not all do fly in this case, like Sableye. As for Spiritomb........maybe uses souls as an extra arm? :paranoid:

Paha, I love the Spiritomb idea! That's almost giving me chills! I'm not sure ghosts always fly though... Like Sableye, Spiritomb, Dusclops... Okay those are the only ones I can think of lol. x.x

Ghosts seemed more like to levitate. It's not technically flying, but you get the general idea.

ShadowTheDarkrai December 13th, 2011 4:04 AM

Golruk can fly because it is basically a giant engine/robot thing. To fly it just tucks its arms and legs into this skirt like thing and the rockets probably replace them or something... Golruk flies in pokemon movie white idk about black... Ghosts don't really fly they just levitate slightly off the ground, but if you weigh a ton I doubt you could get up in the air at all. Examples: Spirttomb has a stone attached to it so it can't fly, Rotom is just made out of electricity so it can.

I've yet to see Golurk fly. Also, what you said about Spiritomb being grounded because of the odd keystone is logical.
