I usually go with "consensus of cooler looking legendary". And while Xerneas seemed cooler at the start based on the provided screenshots, Yveltal has been beginning to look... actually pretty epic.

Hikamaru June 9th, 2013 9:25 PM

91

Version exclusives are always my deciding factor into choosing a Pokemon game.

Treecko June 9th, 2013 10:20 PM

92
Same goes for me Hikari, I always pick the version I think has the better exclusives. (hopefully that's Y this time.)

TaichiWind June 10th, 2013 1:06 AM

93

Word to that, AW. I really don't want to miss out on cool mons by buying Y.

CliCliW June 10th, 2013 5:17 AM

based on the look of the legendary it'd Prolly be X for me I think. ironically though anytime I get/start playing on one version its the opposite of what I wanted. I had gold when I wanted silver and Started pearl when I wanted diamond.. I'll see!

TaichiWind June 10th, 2013 9:50 AM

94

Are you one of the NPCs in 3rd gen who speak in an array of ellipses, perchance?

Chocolate™ June 12th, 2013 4:32 AM

93

Yveltal is just plain epic. I badly want Y but if X has better exclusives than i'll choose that.

TaichiWind June 12th, 2013 8:17 AM

94

okay gamefreak/nintendo/whatever, FAIRY type, seriously? Couldn't you at least have gone with something more of a "moon"-sounding name if you're gonna make the "fairy" type have a "moon" theme?

The_Consumer June 12th, 2013 1:07 PM

95

I like the Fairy type. I think it's refreshing to see a new type being placed into the games

Megan June 12th, 2013 1:19 PM

94

They should have introduced a new type earlier. Last time was Dark and Steel in Gen 2, so it took them 4 Gens to do it again xD

Captain Gizmo June 12th, 2013 3:19 PM

95

Not really liking the idea of a new type tbh :(

TaichiWind June 13th, 2013 4:34 AM

96

I don't reaaaaalllllly care whether or not they add a new type or whatever, all I ask is that if they do, they give it a cool name. There was a hundred routes they could have gone with it. And they picked "fairy".

Megan June 13th, 2013 5:47 AM

95

I find it kinda funny. What's the best way to defeat a mythical creature (like dragons)? Well, you take another mythical creature, of course. And that's, what fairies are.

Even though, retyping Marill to the Fairy type doesn't seem to be the right idea xD

TaichiWind June 13th, 2013 9:03 AM

96

I can just hear the gen6 kids hating on Clefairy: "ooh it's just 'cle' and then its type ooh ooh [whiny noises]"

Megan June 13th, 2013 9:40 AM

95

Who doesn't hate Clefairy? I mean: look at it, it's easily one of the ugliest Pokemon existing!

TaichiWind June 13th, 2013 10:12 AM

96

Okay, fair point, but they'll hate ON it. And whine about it. Like I said. "whine whine ooh it's so unoriginal it's its type and 'cle' whine whine"

Chocolate™ June 14th, 2013 8:20 AM

95

Definitely one of the ugliest pokemon of all time.

TaichiWind June 14th, 2013 9:10 AM

96

...nobody's forcing you to look at it, it's even super-rare for fudge's sake.

CliCliW June 14th, 2013 12:30 PM

95

Hold on... are we talking about CLEFAIRY being ugly? Come on guys, there are uglier ones out there... Garbodor, anybody?

TaichiWind June 14th, 2013 12:48 PM

96

Oh Arceus. Garbodor? Please.

STUNFISK is the real sh00pstopper.

classiccartoonsftw June 14th, 2013 11:13 PM

97.

Watchog is very ugly as well.

TaichiWind June 15th, 2013 2:59 AM

98

Hey, don't diss Unova's regional Rattata ripoff.

akihiko123 June 15th, 2013 3:28 AM

Going up^_^ one of the cutest Pokemon :D

TaichiWind June 15th, 2013 7:01 AM

Super Tengen Toppa Giga Thread Breaker!

So the Pikachu wins this time. Who dares challenge him after this sort of winstreak?

Kieran June 17th, 2013 11:09 PM

49, the king of haterz does :p

CliCliW June 18th, 2013 12:59 AM

48

Hear hear :P I almost typed 50 by accident.... fail.....

Watchog is terrible - he is the creature that nightmares are made of! *Evil laugh*. For so long I was calling him WatchDog instead of his actual name :L

TaichiWind June 18th, 2013 4:12 AM

49

This is the PIKACHU race, not the WATCHOG race. Please refrain from insulting Pokémon that aren't Pikachu.

Kieran June 18th, 2013 6:44 AM

48, what do you guys think of the newish mystery dungeon game (gates to infinity)

alisaie June 18th, 2013 7:13 AM

49.

I personally loved it. But it seems to be one of those games in which people like to bash on it without even playing it because it doesn't look as great as the previous ones.

mudkipbubbles June 18th, 2013 7:16 AM

50.

I'm a huge fan of the Mystery Dungeon games/mini-series, and I loved it. Very fun game to play ^^

TaichiWind June 18th, 2013 7:29 AM

51

I'd say it was a bit lacking. The TDS trio still rules the PMD branch for me.

CliCliW June 18th, 2013 1:57 PM

50

I feel inclined to agree about the TDS - they really managed to perfect the controls and make it pretty user-friendly all things considered. Gates to Infinity would be cool but I don't know... graphics are just too........ big and cutesy for what I feel is a more serious game. Overall, I know Pokemon is mostly directed at little kiddies, but I still feel like PMD is the grown up game, and I'd like to see more grown up graphics... Y'know?

alisaie June 18th, 2013 6:10 PM

51.

What about sixth generation? The graphics, as far as I've seen, aren't too different from GtI's graphics. Different because different interface and how the game works but you still have kind of that cute charm in it.

Also moves like Silver Wind and such will never be friendly.

Captain Gizmo June 18th, 2013 6:25 PM

52

What I miss? :)

I played one game of PMD, and I gotta say. They're extremely fun. I definitely wanna try Gates of Infinity.

Hikamaru June 18th, 2013 8:35 PM

53

I never played the PMD games, but I do like that my fave Pokemon is among the playable characters in Gates to Infinity. However, I'm that kind of person who only plays the main series.

My first fear when I saw X and Y was how cutesy they looked because of how GtI was! I complained left right and centre about how juvenile I was afraid the game would be. I'm kind of over it for X and Y though.. I still prefer PMD older graphics :-P

Silver Wind! :( horrible move :-P especially cause it's ridiculously strong...

Kieran June 18th, 2013 11:27 PM

51, I don't buy non-mainseries games, but I did enjoy the game a bit.

classiccartoonsftw June 19th, 2013 12:02 AM

52.

For me, the main problem of Gates to Infinity is the lack of Pokemon from the first four generations.

TaichiWind June 19th, 2013 10:08 AM

53

Yeah. That was a legit opportunity, and they missed it. Say, how many Pokémon does the TDS trio have? I'd put my bets on about... four hundred ninety something?

Kieran June 19th, 2013 11:35 PM

52, is there anyone else here not keen on x/y?

TaichiWind June 19th, 2013 11:49 PM

53

Why do you keep changing the subject? PMD was completely fine of a subject.

diab_low June 20th, 2013 8:04 AM

52

NOOOOOOOO Pikachu is soooo overated.

Kieran June 20th, 2013 9:59 AM

51, wb diablo. I don't know lol. Pmd is overrated anyway.

TaichiWind June 20th, 2013 10:01 AM

52

Overrated.

There, I said it too.

You haters have me saying it.

Hope you're happy.

Binding of Isaac.

Why should PMD be overrated? I personally think it's massively underrated.

Crunch Punch June 20th, 2013 11:09 AM

53

I find PMD kinda boring. Not sure why to be honest. The story is interesting, but the gameplay just doesn't feel fun for me for whatever reason.

Megan June 21st, 2013 11:50 AM

52

I had to choose which game I should play: PMD4 or Fire Emblem
In the end I spend the last couple of days playing Fire Emblem xD

PMD isn't overrated. Games are considered overrated if "everybody" likes and plays them even if they aren't so good.

Well, maybe I consider playing PMD4 next...

TaichiWind June 21st, 2013 12:28 PM

53

I'll stick to my favorite Pokémon games, aka RSE/HGSS/TDS/Ranger 3/BW/BW2, thankyouverymuchachos.

alisaie June 21st, 2013 1:42 PM

54.

For some reason I really couldn't get into the fifth generation main games. Like... I would play the storyline but after that it was 'oh okay let's go play something else now'. I hope that changes with sixth gen.

Powerserge June 21st, 2013 1:56 PM

53.

Same here, but I think that with how "new" everything is gonna seem with Gen VI, I will have a hard time putting it down for long periods of time.

Arron13 June 21st, 2013 2:28 PM

52.

I''m really looking forward to Gen VI. I didn't play Gen V but want to before X & Y comes out

Nakala Pri June 22nd, 2013 1:10 AM

I would be... 2! Hugh can be pretty dreamy.

100! I love Pikachu! It is my favorite and always will be! :D

Megan June 22nd, 2013 3:07 AM

51

Don't screw the counter :P

5th gen is pretty good. It's not my favourite gen but the technical stuff put into the games is really cool. If only they got rid of these event Pokemon...

I mean, it's like getting Celebi in gen two. I have 250 Pokemon in Gold but guess which Pokemon I'll never obtain...

TaichiWind June 22nd, 2013 3:34 AM

...it's supposed to be at 52 as of your post, or 53 as of mine, pay some damn attention you dodongus.

Celebi? lol Celebi is pretty easy to get IMO.

Megan June 22nd, 2013 5:21 AM

52

No correct number = post ignored
It's easy as it is. :P

You mean getting Celebi by glitching? Done that, didn't work. At least you have to give some people credit for some methods they came up with. They don't work but sound very funny xD

TaichiWind June 22nd, 2013 5:43 AM

53

Are you stupid? She clearly stated that she liked Pikachu, which counts as an upvote.

You most likely didn't do it correctly. I tried the Celebi Egg Glitch and it worked. Twice.

alisaie June 22nd, 2013 8:39 AM

54.

It's quite possible that she was on the wrong page. So before I have to throw out yellow cards because name calling is a no-no here and I'm pretty sure I told one of you that already. :|b

I've never tried any glitched but the Mew glitch myself.

CliCliW June 24th, 2013 3:37 AM

53

I only learned about the Mew glitch recently and I love the simplicity of it, but at the same time I'm disgusted that I don't play enough Gen1 to actually use it much :/

TaichiWind June 24th, 2013 4:03 AM

54

There's this one guy on the Nuzlocke forums, Zowayix, who has so much knowledge about data and percentage (not to mention a lot of ******* persistence) that he actually used the Mew glitch to fill up his 'Dex without trading. That's impressive.

CliCliW June 24th, 2013 4:16 AM

53

That's impressive. I don't think I'd ever have the patience for that :P

alisaie June 24th, 2013 8:02 PM

54.

I remember playing around with the Mew Glitch a little. Especially not as much as that guy but I do remember seeing like ... an Arcanine and a Nidoqueen when I did heh.

Megan June 25th, 2013 4:19 AM

53

There's one guy on Youtube, who has made a whole series called "Let's Glitch Pokemon Yellow". He's shown all the glitches of the first gen and even explained, what they do and which one of them are dangerous to your game, etc. He also created a Magikarp whith Fly and a Pikachu which knows Surf.

Most of these are origined by the Mew/Ditto Glitch.

TaichiWind June 25th, 2013 4:37 AM

54

I know that series! I watched the entire thing too! I especially remember how he made the weird slowbros and then turned his Pikachu into a Laprachu.

PandaBoy June 25th, 2013 4:42 AM

55

Who cant love Pikachu?
However, my favorite pokemon is Lugia.
The movie is so ****ing touching :D

Treecko June 25th, 2013 5:34 AM

56
For more Pikachu love! (Let's hope it doesn't get retyped as Electric/Fairy, though I doubt they would even change their mascot.)

classiccartoonsftw June 25th, 2013 6:36 AM

57.

I hope the Fairy type is weak to Poison-type attacks. After all, the Poison type needs more types to be super effective against.

TaichiWind June 25th, 2013 7:32 AM

58

Yeah, in that regard, Poison is kind of imbalanced. In fact, the most common Poison move in competitive is Toxic. Followed closely by Toxic Spikes. See? It's so useless in combat people don't use it in combat. Would be boss if it became like the one of two ways to take out fairies.

Powerserge June 25th, 2013 9:01 AM

57.

Heck yeah! I'm all for strengthening one of my favorite types.

Hikamaru July 19th, 2013 7:22 PM

58

Damn who left these Pokemon out in the cold?

Tsurera July 19th, 2013 9:01 PM

59

pikachu is my fave Pokemon. I also love to use him in Smash bros, so I'm a little biased.

classiccartoonsftw July 22nd, 2013 12:28 AM

62.

As of now, Froakie is my favourite starter of Gen 6, and I'm most likely to pick it, especially now that we've got Talonflame.

~RNC~ July 24th, 2013 6:39 PM

Got to get on board now with the pikachu lovers, just bought a pikachu purse.

Zylas July 24th, 2013 7:55 PM

62

I began playing Pokemon Gen III, not Gen I. This automatically dissociates me with the nostalgia that some people feel towards Pikachu. To me, he's just another one o' dem Pokemon.

SoundDesperado July 25th, 2013 9:30 AM

61

Same as above, I started with Emerald and I couldn't care less about the anime. So why should I care about an overrated electric mouse?

Now if this forum was about Ralts...

classiccartoonsftw July 25th, 2013 10:34 AM

62.

I like Ralts too. If there was a Ralts race, I would be with the Ralts fans.

Kieran August 10th, 2013 7:21 AM

61,

and omg I'm back :D!

Ralts sucks I think xD

Then again I am one of dem haterz :D

Don't let the thread die folks!

Hikamaru August 10th, 2013 7:27 PM

I still show support my original Pika-fangirlism.

ErikaInRainbowCity August 10th, 2013 8:39 PM

Pikachu is the original mascot :) Definitely one of my fave pokemon!

alisaie August 11th, 2013 2:46 PM

Pikachu is a cutie okok. Though the new rodent/mouse Pokemon is just... djskgflds i want it so bad. ;;

Wobbu August 11th, 2013 4:16 PM

65

Does anyone know Dedenne's name origin?
Also, how can anyone hate Pikachu?

Hikamaru August 11th, 2013 4:24 PM

66

Dedenne = Denki (electricity) + Antenne (antenna).

Still don't know how to say it properly though, so I'm calling it "deh-den" until I hear the official pronunciation.

alisaie August 11th, 2013 4:29 PM

67.

Eh, they have their reasons for disliking Pikachu but we can just forget them. 83
I'm not going to be too concerned learning Dedenne's until we learn it is the English name or not.

Hikamaru August 11th, 2013 4:30 PM

68

It actually is the English name. The Pikaclones tend to retain their Japanese names or have the name look close to the Japanese name. Emonga became Emolga in English because of the word "mong" which is apparently offensive to people with Down Syndrome.

Kieran August 12th, 2013 9:50 AM

67,

I'm just calling it AnnoyingStupidMouse for now!

classiccartoonsftw August 12th, 2013 10:00 AM

68.

Then Emolga will be christened "AnnoyingStupidFlyingSquirrel" from now on!

Shizzable August 12th, 2013 10:22 AM

69.

My favorite Pokemon is Aggron, as you can probably see :3 it's just pure awesomeness.

classiccartoonsftw August 12th, 2013 10:27 AM

70.

I like Aggron too, but as far as Rock types go, I prefer Rhydon and Tyranitar.

As for Steel types, I prefer Ferrothorn, Lucario, Metagross, and Magnezone.

~RNC~ August 12th, 2013 8:00 PM
