I did some research and it turns out a Fire/Grass type only has 2 weaknesses (poison and flying)! Now what would be a good name for it? Hmmm... Oooh, what about Burilli? A cross between burn and chilli! K, here are some stats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hp: 80 Atk: 60 Def: 90 SpAtk: 135 SpDef: 90 Spd: 90 Base stat total: 530 Burilli also has a signature move called Chilli Burn. This is a status move that raises the user's speed to maximum but also burns the user, no matter what type it is or ability it has, although the burn can be stopped by a rawst berry. I got the idea from SuperMario Galaxy 2 - if Yoshi eats a chilli, then he goes red-hot and runs around at super fast speeds! And since this is a chilli itself, I just thought it would be super-fast. Burilli can also learn my favourite grass move - spore (100% accurate hypnosis). Since spore will put the enemy to sleep, Burilli has time to setup and use chilli burn to maximize speed, and then he can sweep! Ability's, i'm not sure about. Maybe sheer force or blaze, I dunno. Thanx for the awesome idea, Pinkie-Dawn, I hope you like what I wrote! |

I was reading through this, many people said Orca *cough* KYOGRE *cough* they usually don't repeat animal designs especially if after a legendary of that animal came out. I'm all in favor of an actual dolphin Pokemon, water/psychic is a good combo! I'm looking for more horse Pokemon...like maybe a Pegasus form of Rapidash... And how about a couple more dinosaurs? I know Groudon was supposed to be a "T .Rex" but in reality, it's not anything but a monster...thing. There is such a variety of Dinos, it would be awesome! Like raptors, or stegosaurus, or pterosaurs!

If you read alot of pokedex entries you find that pokemon do infact each one another, Kabutops' pokedex entry states: A slim and fast swimmer. It slices its prey with its sharp sickles and drinks the body fluids, now if we look at this would you rather a child learn such facts from real life learning? or from a child friendly game designed in my opinion to teach people the importance of treating the animals within the world with respect and dignity and that those animals have there own cycles of lives. Another pokedex entry this time from Glalie: Glalie has the ability to freely control ice. For example, it can instantly freeze its foe solid. After immobilizing its foe in ice, this Pokémon enjoys eating it in leisurely fashion, if a child read this it would think it's a little weird but it would not see the immediate fear because I came from a game, where as if the child were to see a real life animal slowly eating something else it would not be as interested and would initially be frightened. Going back to the main thread topic, it is really hard to speculate on the new pokemon that are going to be introduced in this new region as we already have a large number of pokemon which have filled near enough every category within the world as to what they can be only the people at Game Freak can be smart enough to keep a trend going where they can create new pokemon within necessarily making them look like older pokemon, although in some cases such as the generic bird pokemon it is hard to do that because it is extremely difficult to make a standard bird look different in 5 different generations. The only way I see Game Freak getting around problems with repetitive pokemon would be to either bring out new evolutions for pokemon that are only a 1 stage or 2 stage pokemon or to introduce new pokemon types completely which would help with new pokemon concepts. We have already seen five of the new pokemon to be within the new generations and if we exclude the legendaries for now you are left with the three starter pokemon, these three pokemon do look incredibly like other pokemon from previous generations and I hope that Game Freak doesn't do this with too many pokemon otherwise you could see some trouble they might get from the older and passionate players of the game. Pokemon are to be unique from any other pokemon and even though people complain about pokemon such as Trubbish stating "IT'S JUST A PILE OF TRASH, WHAT A STUPID DESIGN" infact the pokemon Trubbish is a fantastic design, Someone tell me have you seen a pokemon based on trash before? the closest you can think of it the Grimer line which is actually chemical waste, so going from that point any new pokemon which can resemble real world things like Vanillite representing Ice Cream are actually very clever ideas and again bearing in mind that pokemon is a childs game does making new pokemon like Vanillite a necessary thing, all pokemon are based of alot of real world things, Ditto looks like Playdoh, Sandile is a Crocodile, Wingull is a seagull, Murkrow is a standard Crow. So before people judge a few pokemon by what they are in real life, maybe they should think about previous generations and how close they are to real world things. Making new and exciting pokemon in generation 6 was always going to be a difficult task for Game Freak but you need to understand the amount of talent that company has to have already made over 600+ pokemon and still keep a franchise going strong! We will have to wait and see what the future will look for pokemon and how they're are going to get around the ever shortening list of things they can base pokemon of but I don't think you can be surprised when they give you pokemon which do resemble real world things. This post may be a little long and I appreciate anyone who takes the time to read it, for example Shawn! but I thought getting my views across may enlighten a few people who are still unsure about what the future of pokemon will bring!

Well yeah, there's nothing really specific on how people you'd define something as "creative". Like, how is a Grimer any less creative than trubbish? That argument has been going on for a while now. It'll be tough speculating about new pokemon, but hey, we have hopes, right? |
Quote:
Although you say that children will not be able to understand the biology of what older people may be able to understand you then take the emphasis away from trying to teach children things that will help them later on in there life, If they read a pokedex entry about a pokemon eating another, that child then may be in a position later on in education where they can draw from that information that they saw within the game and apply it with real world information. Children have brains like sponges it can absorb a huge amount of information and if that information can be learnt early enough from education if will stick with them forever and if getting that information comes from there favourite game as a child then obviously having real world implications within the game is something not only necessary but essential for children. Going back to the pokemon speculation part, the points I used for pokemon that people dislike was only supposed to be a small points what I was really trying to get across was that people shouldn't be angry or surprised about what pokemon Game Freak are adding even if those pokemon are identical to that of something which exists in the world we live in, adding things in from the real world will help people relate more to the game and they will find it more enjoyable. I am never going to post about "OMFG THE NEW POKEMON WILL BE MAINLY GRASS" but what I will say is that you should expect to see a format similar to the previous generations where certain types will dominate more than others. Being creative isn't about adding a pokemon with 16 arms and 5 legs or a pokemon that can hover and fly at 200 MPH it's about being able to create something that people will look at and say "Okay, I understand where they were going with this" |

No that's right, thunder is the sound, however many games tend to make thunder a electrical attack rather than a sound attack, proably because they mean to say thunder bolt but are too lazy (in Pokemon's case there's already a thunderbolt...) People in real life do the same mistake, it always annoyed me to be honest. How about a pokemon based on the superfluid state of matter (we got Plasma in Rotom, and in Zekrom and Reshiram)? It can be a sea slug pokemon, hopefully one better than Shellos and evolution. |
^Gastrodon is pretty much good!!!

*sigh* after what I wrote about Burilli, I REALLY want a chilli pokemon in gen 6. If GF doesn't, then I will have less respect for them... |
I would be interested in seeing something like a fire ostrich and maybe a steel type goat. I think those would be really cool.
|
A steel Ram would be cool to see. Or maybe it can be Steel/Psychic or Steel/Electric and physical oriented (allowing it to use a powerful Zen headbutt, and iron tail)
|
Quote:
|
That would be interesting...so would a Flying/Fighting type! Please GF give me my much desired Flying/Fighting angel or garuda Pokemon.

Quote:
I want more unique Dragon Combinations. More Dragon/Fire and Dragon/Electric other than legendaries. There aren't too many animals I want to see made into Pokemon, but I'd like some toy based Pokemon. Like a top, plushie, or building blocks. With the count reaching 700 my want list is very small as far as new creatures are concerned. |
I'd like to see some more Water birds, especially some more bulky ones, since I like the Water/Flying combo. If GameFreak will do it I guess that they might probably base it off a Gannet or a Booby or something else like that.
A steel ram also sounds cool, and I hope something like that will come up in the X and Y series. Maybe it will be able to learn moves like Iron Horn or Bovine Toss. Quote:
|
I always liked the fossil pokemons and a Dragon one could be interesting. And we got lot of Water/Rock, some flying and steel and pure Rock. Some combo never been made with rock Like Electric/Rock, Dragon/Rock, Poison/Rock, Ghost/Rock, Ice/Rock and Normal/Rock. I hope they add one of them as fossil because we got enough of those Water/Rock fossils.
|
Yeah, the type originality of gen 5's fossils disappointed me. I want something more like Hoenn's which had one new combo, and a older one which only another Pokémon had but which wasn't a fossil. Speaking of fossils I wonder if we'll get a "third fossil" like Relicanth (living fossil, and Genesect (re-engineered fossil), or one like Aerodactyl...however they seem to be an odd generations thing so maybe not...
For fossil's I'll like a T-rex Dragon/Rock (ancestor of Larvitar maybe?), and a mammoth (I know it's not from the dinosaur era but it'll be cool to have another mammoth Pokémon) it can be Ice/Rock, that's two new rock combo's ^_^. |
I really wanted a pokemon with a **** ton of Hp, but no defences (because of the high Hp, you will get tons of exp when you kill, *cough*, I mean faint it). Ok, statistics time!!!!!!!!!!
Hp: 350 Atk: 5 Def: 1 SpAtk: 5 SpDef: 1 Spd 5 Base stat total: 367 This pokemon's stats do look pathetic, but the point is to make a pokemon that is easy to take down, and you get tons of exp from it. (FYI, the more hp a poke has, the more exp you get when you faint it. Thats why you get loads of exp when you take down an Audino or a Chansey/Blissey) |
Hm, that pokemon's statistics kind of reminds me... of a reverse Shuckle. Because you know -- Shuckle has low HP and high Defense and Special Defense, but that pokemon statistics are the other way around~ I'd would be col if it'd give loads of EXP points, or maybe loads of utility moves for battle!

On the other hand, maybe this pokemon could get a kickass evolution - a super defensive one. Hooray! Statistics time! Hp: 290 Ability: Magic Guard Atk: 10 Def: 135 SpAtk: 10 SpDef: 140 Spd: 5 Base stat total: 590 Looking at it's stats, it's pretty obvious that this pokemon can wall any attack, at the cost of being pathetic offensively. My plan is to make the ultimate annoying pokemon, and if this pokemon has magic guard, then say bye-bye to toxic and will-o-wisp. Have it learn toxic, thunder wave, recover, and your choice of entry hazards (preferably stealth rock - if it can learn it). There you have it, the ultimate annoyer. |

I have written this before in a different topic, but I think it was out of place so I decided to copy it down in this thread.
Zlythax. (Poison/Dark) I thought it was a cool name, it's design sorta looks like a cross between the creature 'venom' from spiderman, and sableye. This creature has a long, furry tongue that hangs out from it's Sableye - like grin. It has blank, soulless blue eyes (like Sylveon), and has long, black scythes that replace it's hands (like Kabutops's blades - except longer and black). Now it's stats: Ability: Assassin (Increases the accuracy of OHKO moves, like guillotine, from 30% to 80%) Hp: 100 Atk: 15 Def: 80 SpAtk: 15 SpDef: 80 Spd: 150 Base stat total: 440 You are probably disappointed with it's attack stats, but when it has the ability 'Assassin', who needs attack? Zlythax can learn ALL the OHKO moves, including a new one called 'Death Slice', a dark type guillotine which is it's signature move. Since Zlythax has a stunning 150 speed stat, it should OHKO everything in it's path, at least 80% of the time! |
Quote:
Maybe if that buff was more like a 20% bump up to 50% (which I still don't see happening), with it's HP and Defense stat's it could easily set up a Hone Claws (which it would obviously have with your description) which would just be silly. |
I'd like to see various Pokemon introduced in this new generation and from the ones seen so far, I'm looking forward to seeing what all sorts of wonderful creations they can conjure up :3. Right now I would like to see evolutions for some weaker Pokemon such as Farfetch'd just to give it a little boost perhaps stat wise and maybe even a different typing! Although I do understand not every Pokemon can be a strong fighter, they're all special and unique in their own way.
And I'd also really like to see any sort of Pokemon with opposite typings like Grass/Fire, a much better Electric/Ground and the one I would most want to see is a Dark/Psychic, if that sort of Pokemon ever came around I'd definitely use it no matter what <3. Other than that for the longest time I've really wanted Lapras to evolve into something that closer resembles Nessie or the Loch Ness monster. Lastly, a dolphin-like Pokemon that isn't purely water-type is something I'd also like to see. From memory I don't remember any water/psychic types so yes. And there are so many more sorts of Pokemon I'd like to see in this generation but then I'd waffle on for ages. :B |
Quote:
Those defenses should make it fair because any ground move would definitely cripple it (if not faint it), and besides we all know how annoyingly inaccurate those 70% moves such as blizzard and thunder are now don't we? 70%? Pfft, more like 50%. With all honesty, I don't believe its speed stat should be changed one bit, I believe it is fine the way it is. He is a speedy killer, but is screwed if he misses. That doesn't seem too overpowered if you ask me, since his pathetic attack stats restricts him to 70% accurate offensive moves which are still unreliable accuracy. |
50% accuracy for OHKO is already big enough so 80% ?? lol, no thanks!! And, to top it off, you give it such a very good defensive stats and a resisting typing.... No, just no.
Imo, that ability should never be added. |
A snake pokemon that's competitively viable. Please x.x
|
Quote:
GRRRRRRR, I meant to write down 70%!!!!!!! Anyway, I already changed its defensive stats in my most recent reply: Hp: 70 Def: 70 SpDef: 65 A good Earthquake should take it out no prob, and besides, 70% accuracy is still unreliable. Heh, thunder and blizzard, we all know how accurate those are! So what if it seems a little overpowered, do you remember Alakazam? Or sandstorm Excadrill? Or Garchomp even? Those pokemon are/were broken, yet they managed to exist in the pokemon games. Although I do agree that its typing is a bit too much, maybe just a mono dark type would be enough. |
Alakazam is far from broken, Garchomp isn't broken, and Excadrill can be argued it is (but I still don't think it is). But that's straying away from the point of this thread =P
As for types of Pokémon I'd love to see, I feel like Gen 4 and Gen 5 were lacking on Fire types a lot, so I'd love to see some decent new fire types get introduced! |
I think a fire/poison type would be pretty neat to see. I have no idea would it would look like, but I hope they do it this gen.
|

Well aside from the horrible gen 4 - 5 fire types such as Infernape, Magmortar, Heat Rotom, Heatran, Fire Arceus, Darmanitan, Chandelure, Volcarona, Reshiram, and White Kyurem, I completely agree that GF should make at least decent fire types. |
Would a Pokemon based on fireworks help increase the diversity of Fire types?

I have been hoping for a Electric/Fighting Pokemon since like Gen3...
There are so many combinations they havent tried out yet, i think they should make some pokemon with new mixed typing: like the "mutated" kind, as you guys have been calling it. I would love to see a fire/water pokemon, but i have no clue what that could look like... |
Quote:
I agree that Blazzaka should be a frail, but powerful sweeper. The high defensive stats would probably work better for a bomb/mine pokemon, but not fireworks. Quote:
|
Oh I was replying to the other thread and I thought of this. Unova was primarily based upon strong physical attackers (I did the maths) - do you think this generation will be based on strong special attackers...? So instead of mass fighting mons we'd get more fire/electric/water, etc.
|
I was actually hoping for more specially defensive pokemon this time around so that people don't really have to rely on blissey anymore~ But yes, more special attacks is also just as fine!
|
Well iirc Sinnoh had a lot of defensive mons, whereas Hoenn was more physical, maybe? And before that I didn't really notice a pattern, so if it is to follow on it'll probably be special attackinggg. Specially defensive I don't think we need more of, because really, we have enough as it is, whereas more special attackers to dominate would be awesome!
|
Well, I actually hope that it doesn't pull a Gen 1 where special attackers where dominate. XD But, I just want a balance between offensive and defensive, y'know? The metagame's power creep increased from Unova, so, people found it hard to stall. Well, I don't mind that, buuuut yeah, I just wanted more defensive mons~!
|
Hmm yeah I see why there'd need to be more specially defensive Pokemon but special attacking mons idk, they're usually not like super fast unless they're electric so they can easily be revenge killed imo.
|
I'm honestly hoping the pokémon of this generation are more balanced in stats like a jack of all trades rather than be glass cannons, mighty glaciers, and fragile speedsters.
|
I might be flamed for this but it would be interesting if they did a 'Virus', 'Zombie', 'Host', 'Cure' 'Immune' Pokemon cycle type thing.
I really don't know how to explain it but here I go Host Pokemon are just regular typed Pokemon And can evolve into either Zombie Pokemon by being bit/infected by a Virus Pokemon (Poison?), which only can produced by Zombie Pokemon (Poison/Ghost(Undead)). Or stinged by a Cure Pokemon(Type Unknown) to evolve into a Immune Pokemon (Type Unknown). And The Host Pokemon is the only one that can be infected, no other Pokemon. The Cure and Virus Pokemon must need a Host Pokemon to evolve into their final Evolution. I was think a way to get infected by the virus or cure, is by in battle with a WILD Virus or Cure Pokemon. If the Virus Pokemon uses Bite or Cure Pokemon uses sting on the Host. It injects what ever into the Host Pokemon. And after the battle the Host will evolve into the respected Pokemon and the Cure or Virus Pokemon disappears to evolve with the Host Pokemon. Or some sort of way. Zombies/Virus Pokemon have a speed, defense, attack Bonus during the night, and the reverse deduction in the day. Virus more common appeared at at night Uncommon for Zommbie, But Both rarely appear during the day, in the wild. While Immune/Cure Pokemon have Speed, defense, attack bonus during the day, and vise versa. Wild also goes for the Immune and Cure Pokemon but opposite. I know it sounds complicated but easy to understand once get it. Don't kill me for my idea... |
Some ideas for Pokemon I have, it's a bit of a long list:
Cardinal-Early route bird? Peacock Flamingo Giant Panda Hammerhead shark Narwhal Toucan Gargoyle Griffin Jack o Lanturn-possibly Grass/Ghost typed Monarch Butterfly Squid Sea Urchin Dolphin Swordfish This is just a list of many ideas I have. |
Anyone mentioned a sponge Pokemon for Gen VI? Seriously, a Pokemon-style Spongebob parody is way overdue, because we still haven't received a sponge Pokemon.
|
Quote:
I like the swordfish idea, why not Swardish (sword and fish). And its evolution could be Barrablade (such a cool name, cross between Barracuda and blade), Barrablade looks like a swordfish with a massive steel blade instead. Either water/fighting or water/steel, probably water/fighting because a swordfish would naturally be an offensive animal, and fighting is much more offensive than steel. The Griffin idea seems pretty cool, maybe it could be a pseudo legendary. It could have 3 stages (like most pseudo legendaries): Griffy , Griffain, and Griffalix. I'm not sure what its typing should be, Dragon/Flying is so overused, but Fire/Flying would probably be the best choice. Perhaps it could be a bulky pokemon like Tyranitar, instead of a glass cannon. |
I wonder what kind of "connected" legendaries and how many we'll have in this Gen. Will they still follow the "trio" thing as usual? hmm...
|
I wanna see a Lego pokemon, that would be cool! (not Porygon) I also don't care if new pokes are based on non-living things.

I don't know why but now I have this image of a Fighting/Rock typed Pokémon that has a humanoid shape and is made from bricks. Probably the whole building block idea, but it seems like it could be cool.

Quote:
This may seem like an unlikely concept to create a Lego pokemon, but you never know, GF has surprised us before. In gen 5 they made an icecream pokemon, a pokemon made of floating gears, and a giant snowflake pokemon (Cryogonal). GF even introduced a pedophile pokemon in gen 1 (Mr. Mime). So you never know, it could happen. (Hooray, I wrote the 500th reply to this thread!) XD |
How about like... a robotic dog? They were totally the rage years ago and if they returned through X/Y it'd be fun to like train it differently and help it gain human feelings, compared to other Pokemon :x
|
That'd be cool concept, but where the heck would we encounter that? You wouldn't see it in the wild since it's not naturally occurring. So would someone give it to you somewhere? It seems almost like a Game Corner prize to me.

I've been thinking that maybe GF will create their pokemon based off of famous French animals, so, I've too a look at a source online: Quote:

I'd love a jaguar based Pokémon if we're taking from that list. It'd make a cool looking Pokémon, maybe a a grass type, since it's a jungle cat?
|
It'd have to be part fire, too, I think, because I take them as like vicious and fire is really the only vicious type I can think of. XD; Other than dark obviously.
|
Agree with a Panther type needing to be Dark, that'd be fitting.
I'd love to see a Pokemon based on a lion, could be a fire/something type. And i think a Kangaroo would be pretty cute, he could be Fighting/Normal maybe? |
Since the two go hand-in-hand and there's been a lot of topic overlap, I've changed the topic of this thread to discuss not only new Pokémon ideas you have but also the new type combinations you'd like to see on these new Pokémon as well, while closing the old "New Type Combinations Speculation Thread" from before. This should also allow for the discussion to not be as limited as it once was too.
Going back on track; Ice-type Wolf Pokémon and Fire/Water Pistol Shrimp Pokémon FTW! |
I've seen Fakemon of a Ice wolf before:
http://th02.deviantart.net/fs70/150/f/2011/125/f/0/f0f5c92ff5f3d004ee5dbc6d56e021e8-d3fohto.png He does look very cute and playful. ;__; Though I wonder if it'll resemble Houndoom or Mightyena in a way. But, no matter, I'd love a Ice wolf. :3 |
An evolution of ditto! Or a pokemon that is Dark/Psychic type!

I agree with more fire/steel! It's such a useful typing and I definitely think it should be used more and hopefully is in mons in this generation and flash fire again too plz <3

Fire/Steel is a really cool typing, i hate when only legendaries get these kinds of combos. They should definitely make more of them!!
|
I actually thought Flying/Fighting almost should have been Braviary, but since it wasn't I'd love to see that happen. Maybe the legendary will finally give us that?
|
About the Robotic Poke.. it can be Steel + 2nd type (ground, fire, electric ..Etc) depending on its forme which will probably depend on the environnement?!
Hehe, I am not the only one hoping for a non-legendary fire-steel Pokémon. :] Imagine if Slugma, Magcargo, Torkoal or Numel get a steel-fire evolution? Hmm... I also would love an Electric - Ice Pokémon and a Koffing's cousin, a Poison Electric Pokémon with Levitate, Oh god! Regarding legendaries, I would like to see less Dragon even tough I am an Ice Beam fan, haha! :D Yvetal and Xerneas don't look really like Dragons so I am happy. :3 I also would like to see some epic uber Poison-typed legendary, it can probably have some signature poison move that cause both poison and confusion? Hmm... |

But please please please don't let it be a legendary who gets this combo, i hate it when only they get brand new dual types, they should be given to more "normal" pokemon! Quote:

Fire/Poison is so interesting...x4 weakness to ground is just so unsexy. |
Quote:
|
Balloons are easy to bypass and are situation at best though. Just cause Heatran also has it doesn't raise the appeal.
Pokemon that share the x4 Ground weakness Magnezone: OU. Really good and doesn't have to worry about OHKOs with Sturdy. Has pretty decent stats to back it up. Magneton: RU. Was as good as Magnezone before Gen 4 when Magnezone replaced it. Now its not used that often. Like with Magnezone it has decent stats to back it up. Both are mostly due to its Steel Typing's natually high defenses. Macargo: NU. It has its moments, but its not used for a reason. Bastidon: NU. Despite having some pretty good defense, it sits in obscurity thanks to X4 Ground and X4 Fighting weakness. Has a bit more as to why its not used often, but still fits. Probopass: NU. Pretty much the same as Bastidon. Aggron: RU. Used more than the above two due to having a better attacking stat but still falls down hard. Heatran's saving grace is he's a 600 BST Legendary. If his stats were below 500, he'd be with the others in RU/NU. So baring 2 competitively x4 Ground isn't that great. Only 3 of which have x4 weakness to fighting which is possibly the only other reason they're down as far as they are which is really sad cause I really like two of them =C If the Fire/Poison is under 500 BST, its going to be NU/RU bait. While it'll have potential in NU and RU, that's still not the best thing to go off of. It may even fall as far as the newly made PU which is 3.41% of NU usage. I don't want to discourage the hope cause it CAN still be made, just it'll be very unappealing and fall into mediocrity very fast. |
I agree with XanderO, a x4 weakness to Ground would be a huge disadvantage. If this Pokemon happened to have Levitate as an ability though, he would only be weak to Water, Rock and Psychic, which would make him way more usable. And even with a x4 Ground weakness, I'd love to see the design for a pokemon with this typing!
|
I have always wanted a Rock/Poison type pokemon with levitate, it has a 4x weakness to earthquake but levitate nullifies its ground weakness. I would like a pokemon with this typing is gen 6, and NOT terrible!!!!!!!!
Speaking of new pokemon, you all have probably seen it, but I'll post it anyway: http://pokemondungeon.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/leaked-gen-iv-e1359792651765.png What do you think of these possible pokemon? Please, give me your thoughts! I personally like the birdie, he looks so badass, and I hope his final evolution ends up being a kickass bird similar to Staraptor, NOT Unfezant!!! And that facial expression just screams "Does it LOOK like I give a ****?" I think that bug thing just looks stupid, but you never know, after all that stupid Shelmet evolves into ACCELGOR!!!!! But yeah, until otherwise the bug sucks. (BTW sorry if this has already been done before :nervous:) |
