Which past generation Pokemon do you want to return?
 
Basically as the title says. While the past thread was based upon the Pokedex size - I don't really care about that. I care more about what you want to see IN the regional Pokedex and why?? How likely do you think it will be that they'll appear?

So basically what Pokemon from past generations would you like to appear in this region and why :3

Lunar Crescent March 1st, 2013 5:46 AM

I want generation II Pokemon to return, they were the best in my opinion and i loved them, and i still do!

Mark Kamill March 1st, 2013 10:59 AM

Hopefully we have Pre-League Trapinch's again, Flygon has always been a main for my story and post-league team since gen 3. Couldn't care about anything other then it, perhaps maybe Mareep as well.

Sabrewulf238 March 1st, 2013 2:34 PM

Well there's a few pokemon I always like to see when possible, Numel/Camerupt, Budew/Roselia/Roserade, Gulpin/Swalot, Mawile, Seviper, Tropius, Mareep/Flaffy/Ampharos.

but to be honest I would rather the old pokemon that return include more pokemon that haven't been the first picks in the past...some more obscure pokemon.

blue March 1st, 2013 2:37 PM

The Hoenn Pokemon. Seriously, they introduced some of the best Pokemon to date, I can't think of a single Pokemon from that region I dislike.

Word! Couple some of them wit evolutions and the Pokedex is going to rock so much.

SaniOKh March 1st, 2013 3:01 PM

I know this is out of question now, since there's a new Eeveelution, and we saw what we saw in the trailer, but... my answer would be "none of them".

A major part of what I loved about B1/W1 was the fact that all Pokémon we encountered before the National Dex were brand new. During the main campaign, I really felt like I was playing Pokémon for the first time again. I really hoped they would do the same for Gen 6.

Guy March 1st, 2013 3:17 PM

A mix between more of the Pokémon from Hoenn and Sinnoh. However, as Sabrewulf mentioned, I hope they're a bit more obscure rather than what we'd normally expect or want to see show up. And if they're going to be underused Pokémon, then I pray they come with new evolutions so they're not left to be ignored again.

From what we've seen so far ─ Hariyama, Psyduck, Kirlia, Dratini, Litwick and a few others ─ I think they're selecting a pretty good variety of old Pokémon to show up.

Funny enough, that's one of the bigger things I disliked the most about Black and White and was glad when they changed it in B2W2.

Sydian March 1st, 2013 3:21 PM

As long as Petilil is in XY, I will be a happy Syd. n__n

Arlo March 1st, 2013 3:26 PM

None of them.

Seriously. I think that the complete absence of past pokemon from Black and White was one of the best features of the games, and I'd like to see that again. Another entirely new region full of entirely new pokemon.

We still don't know if those are in the game or if they were just for show.

I would say Tympole, Plapitoad, Seismitoad, Golett, Golurk, and Eevee are all in the game due to the statue from the preview, though that also isn't guaranteed as we had Pikachu Statues in Nimbasa.

MarinoKadame March 1st, 2013 4:00 PM

Only those who will get new evolutions in this generation.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire March 1st, 2013 4:08 PM

I want to see Shinx, Poochyena, Smoothum, Elekid, Magby, Pichu, Trapinch, Absol, Tropius, Chimecho, Numel, Torcoal, Sablye, Mawhile, Castform,Pawniard, Sygiliph, Reniculus, Beldum, Shoomish, Yanma, Aipom...okay I better stop there...

Basically I want to see a bunch of my favorites from gen 1-5.

Pinkie-Dawn March 1st, 2013 4:59 PM

I want my precious Alakazam back into the fray, but the Ralts line is already confirmed to reappear will once again outclass it, which I don't like to see that happening.

Hikamaru March 1st, 2013 6:12 PM

I hope they include my fave Fighting-type line, the Riolu evolution line. Lucario is popular and a very strong attacker. I want a nice mix of 5th Gen Pokemon in there, but have at least a few lines from all past generations.

I'm also hoping for Aipom/Ambipom to make it back in there cos I love monkey-based Pokemon, and given my Chinese Zodiac sign it's fitting I want a monkey in there, otherwise I'd like to see the Pansage/sear/pour lines back too.

I know Eevee and all its other Eeveelutions are probably confirmed due to Sylveon, and maybe even the Pikachu family to a lesser extent since the trailer saw the player encountering a wild Pikachu.

Student D1 March 1st, 2013 6:13 PM

I'd like the Pokémon from Generation III to make a comeback for the upcoming Generation VI. There are many great Pokémon introduced in the Hoenn region, including the legendary ones, and it would be nice if we were to catch them once again in various routes.

I'd also like to see some of the Generation IV Pokémon return in X and Y.

Play Black 2, half of the older Pokemon in the regiona dex literally have to be Hoenn Pokemon.

Treecko March 1st, 2013 6:57 PM

I really hope alot of Gen II and III Pokemon make a return. Gen III is my favorite generation cause Hoenn is just beautiful. I know there's rumors of Sableye getting an evolution and even though I know it's not true, it makes me hopeful there's gonna be alot of Hoenn Pokemon getting evolutions and making returns to the region's Pokedex. And a Sableye evolution is something I've been wanting for a while. Some Gen IV and V Pokemon would be cool. Hopefully Audino so I can hack and slash them again for EXP again.

Archeops12354 March 1st, 2013 7:49 PM

I know this topic has been done to death and I know you've all heard it, but I'll write it anyway. I really want Gyarados to return, and If it does - change it to a FREAKING water/dragon type like it is supposed to be!
Personally, I have always HATED the water/flying type. Adding flying properties to water types sure did give them an immunity to ground and neutrality to grass, except now it has a 4x weakness to electricity and is now weak against the most annoying attack in the metagame - stealth rock. You know what? I wouldn't find Gyarados' typing that bad if IT ACTUALLY LEARNT ANY FREAKING FLYING MOVES! Giving Gyarados a STAB boost for moves that it doesn't even have is one thing I hated.

The thing I hated most about Gyarados' typing is that in gen 1 it was originally going to be a water/dragon. But since this typing makes it only weak to dragon, and the only offensive dragon move was dragon rage and twister (I think), GameFreak decided to change it's typing so it wasn't overpowered.
But in the later gens they added more powerful dragon moves (such as dragon pulse an outrage), but GameFreak still left Gyarados as a water/flying. WHY!!!!!!!!

With all honesty, I would even prefer Gyarados to be a mono - water type, if of course it doesn't become a water/dragon in gen 6.

If they were just for show, I have to say they selected a pretty nice group of Pokémon of which I wouldn't mind seeing available early in the games. Although, why not just stick to Pokémon more basic and popular amongst the fan base such as Pikachu (which they showed) or Lucario rather than select such an obscure group of Pokémon?

Given the reveal of Sylveon, I would say it's practically guaranteed that at least a number of Pokémon from previous generations are going to show up, some of which may even have new stages of evolution. So while we're still waiting for confirmation on the Pokémon they've shown, I'm kind of leaning more towards them being included rather than being used as substitutes.

There's a chance, should the Pokémon shown in the trailer be included in X and Y, that Magikarp may be available and there Gyarados as well. However, let's keep the topic on which Pokémon we want to see return. Discussing change of type and going into such depth is a different topic all on its own.

Cerberus87 March 1st, 2013 8:51 PM

Preferably as few from Hoenn as possible, maybe Ralts (which will get turned into a Gallade instead of Gardevoir), or stuff like Shroomish which is actually useful unlike 90% of the Hoenn Dex.

Actually, I have a perverse wish for lots of Hoenn Pokémon, since then there's a guarantee no remakes will be made! :D

More seriously, I think a bigger focus on 6th gen Pokémon would be better, so I could get to know them. If not that, then some Johto and Sinnoh Pokémon along with a few Unova ones, preferably the ones who get new evos. Houndour and Murkrow would be cool.

Jake♫ March 1st, 2013 9:15 PM

I'd love to see a decent mix from Gens 1, 2, and 3, maybe a little of 4, and a minimal of 5. I get that Unova was the reboot so there will more than likely be a multitude of Pokémon from there in the new region, but I'd prefer some lines from the first 3 gens (specifically the Nidorans, Houndour, and Cacnea/Swablu/Trapinch.

ShadowMirror March 2nd, 2013 2:48 AM

i want Aipom/Ambipom, Deerling/Sawsbuck, Togepi/Togetic/Togekiss, Eevee/Eeveelutions, Celebi,

and i know this will never happen but i want my CHIMCHAR!!!!

Patrick March 2nd, 2013 5:28 AM

I honestly wouldn't care if it consisted of 80-90% newbies, and in fact, I prefer that over unnecessary evolutions or preevolutions of past Pokemon. If you aren't going to make new creatures, then just make a new game entirely based off the old ones (that way, maybe the majority of the game's focus can be spent elsewhere).

The only condition for me is Nidoran, which I've already told several of my iRL friends (didn't think they'd all be interested in this). I'm just not buying this game if there's no Nidoran. I'm not really in X/Y's targeted demographic anyway, so it's not like they'd be gaining or losing profit from me.

Considering that Nidoran are one of the least popular Pokemon in Japan, you know, where it counts, I'm already assuming I'm passing this game up.

Ho-Oh March 2nd, 2013 6:34 AM

I want lots of things from Unova! Volcarona, Herdier, Zekrom... anything amazing from Unova. If there's not much Unova I'll be disappointed ;_; Although I wouldn't mind if there wasn't any, as the other user suggested mainly because Unova's new start was a lot of fun!!

I'm more than happy to flip back and forth between the two styles.

Gen 7 can be only brand new pokemon again.

jog5454 March 2nd, 2013 10:11 AM

I would love to see Larvitar/Tyranitar. and Abra/Alakazam.

Kung Fu Ferret March 2nd, 2013 12:39 PM

I want Luxray, Sharpedo Cinccino, and Beartic, just to name four randoms ones I like.

Aslan March 2nd, 2013 7:24 PM

I'd like to see some Hoenn Pokemon make a return if possible! Hoenn had some of the best Pokemon easily and honestly there wasn't one I hated at all! I'd be really disappointed if there are none making a return in this new generation D:. Also I'd just generally like to see a mix from all of the regions, maybe exclude a few like a few common Pokemon, just so the early routes aren't jampacked with them.

As much as I'd hate to see that, I'm pretty sure that there's probably going to be an abundance of Unova Pokémon since with the whole new start thing, the two regions probably have some sort of connection like Johto and Kanto did sharing a large amount of Pokémon. I doubt anything like Volcarona or Zekrom would carry over though, since legendary status/pseudo-legendaries would probably stay in their own regions (maybe with the exception of pseudo-legends appearing in the post-game).

Munchlax11 March 2nd, 2013 8:33 PM

Well both Gen II and III. But, I would love to see Munchlax! The only way to get it in the wild is in DP in honey trees! And they are extremely rare in the honey trees. There was one in the trailer, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up because it being in the trailer really doesn't mean anything.

classiccartoonsftw March 3rd, 2013 4:10 AM

I want to see Raichu, Nidoqueen, Nidoking, Persian, Alakazam, Machamp, Victreebel, Dodrio, Cloyster, Gengar, Exeggutor, Rhydon, Jynx, Crobat, Houndoom, Sableye, Mawile, Cacturne, Flygon, Lunatone, Solrock, Absol, Salamence, Misnagius, Skuntank, Lucario, Drapion, Weavile, Magnezone, Tangrowth, Togekiss, Yanmega, Gliscor, Gallade, Krookodile, Galvantula, Ferrothorn, Chandelure, and Volcarona in the regional Dex of Pokemon X/Y.

But Volcarona coming over wouldn't seem too crazy because it's the sun and every region has the sun... shining! Perhaps it was just not discovered in other regions and it's EVERYWHERE, aka here. n_n

Zorogami March 6th, 2013 1:15 PM

I don't care for one certain Gen, i just hope that ALL will be represented!!
That's what i loved most about B2/W2, having a national pokedex with pokemons from every previous Gen and region. I thought it was a good mix, and it gave you endless team possibilites. It was also a pretty large National Pokedex in my opinion.

That's kind of a ridiculously large stretch though. Volcarona had it's own place in the Relic Castle, kind of setting that as a home base in Unova. I doubt they'd carry over a pseudo-legendary like that over to the main Pokédex of the new region. It's entirely possible, but I just sincerely don't expect it to happen.

Firox March 6th, 2013 2:21 PM

As long as my favorites from Unova, or trade them from Unova, I'm happy. Patrat, Purrloin, and Mienfoo, and trade Oshawott in.

Well it's just that Latios/Latias, and random other legendaries seem to find homes in other regions and something like Volcarona could easily be applicable to multiple games, even more so than legendaries!

It is true that some games did carry over a large amount of the other/older legendaries, even if it was post-game content or only accessible by event, like the different tickets in FireRed/LeafGreen.

I dont think its too much of a stretch to consider old legendaries being in the new game, but im pretty sure that if they are available, they wouldn't be catchable until pretty late into the game, after the Elite 4 for example

Ho-Oh March 7th, 2013 1:13 AM

Also in an unrelated note, I really don't want Zigzagoon etc. Instead of that can we have some classic mons like Miltank and Chansey pretty please??

phoenixwright47 March 20th, 2013 8:34 PM

Returning pokemon?
 
So...just asking you guys think should return in PKMN X and Y? Me, I'm hoping mismagius and froslass. I've already seen that there is chance where I can get Gardevoir and Gallade...(My favs :classic:)

Guy March 21st, 2013 3:20 AM

No two threads can ever be the same and exist at the same time. Going to have to merge this into the other thread of the same discussion for you, buddy.

But Zigzagoon is amazing! The most useful normal type you find at the beginning of the games outside of just being used as an HM slave.

Ho-Oh March 21st, 2013 8:37 AM

Zigzagoon is good, yes, but the others are just fillers... and I don't see a reason for them to return if there's another new normal type to go there :(

Guy March 21st, 2013 9:25 AM

Oh, in general, I have to agree then. I'd rather the region's native common Normal nuisance be found rather than all of them while the lesser common Normal types from past generations be available instead. It adds a bit of variety in what sort of Pokémon you can catch under that type without having a sense of repetitiveness.

I really don't need to run into this region's common Normal type and on top of that a bunch of Rattatas or Bidoofs too.

Annataz March 21st, 2013 11:55 AM

As long as I can get Absol, I'll be happy. Krookodile would also be nice, though. Gardevoir's already going to be there. Those would probably be my top non-starter/non-legendary picks.

Jake♫ March 21st, 2013 4:28 PM

The one thing I don't see changing is the beginning routes having a new Normal type to start off with. If that's happening, then I REALLY don't want to see the previous ones appearing as well, as stated. So pretty much I'm happy having our new beginning normal type, plus some other various older normal types that are actually not awful (Miltank was mentioned up there), but don't give us the new Normal type PLUS Rattata and Sentret.

phoenixwright47 March 22nd, 2013 9:52 AM

I would like to see some 4 gen pokemon back. Like froslass and mismagius. I already think they used roserade a lot, but i would like to see that as well. As far as other gens, i'd like to see the classic 1 gen as well.:P

Nate March 30th, 2013 4:09 PM

Geodude is a HUGE no-no. Im sick of geodudes and zubats (most of the kanto pokemon) appearing in every region. Kanto needs a break. I want to see pokemon suc as roggenrola in replacement of geodude and so on. Also, it would be cool to have some unova evolutions, like maybe sawk and throh. Black and white need to be developed more, like the pokemon eveloution schemes have been altered through generations. Also I would love to see a return of rare pokemon - e.g togepi, riolu, growlithe, pokemon that are quite rare. Man theres SO much to say!

Archeops12354 March 30th, 2013 7:31 PM

I like all the generations and almost all the pokemon (my fav is gen 5), so for me the question is not for which pokemon I want to return - because I'm happy no matter what pokemon returns.
For me, the real question is what pokemon I DON'T want to return. There are only a select few that I don't want to return:
  • Geodude
  • Zubat
  • Ratata
  • Woobat
  • Weedle
  • Emolga
But apart from that, I'm happy for whatever pokemon returns.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire March 30th, 2013 7:42 PM

I'll like to see Absol, Tropius, Gastly, Shuppet, Murkrow, Mawhile, Sableye, Clefa, Pichu, Shinx, Rotom, and Ditto to name a few.

Nate March 31st, 2013 2:08 AM

Hoenn pokemon really need to come back! They should make a hoenn remnake, like they did with gold and silver. They dont need a kanto remake, they got heargold/soulsilver for that. Hoenn btw is my facourite region and the pokemon there are amazing. Id be more than happy if Flygon was to make a return, plus other dragon types should come back, like garchomp, and haxoru, etc.

What I dont want to see as archeops12354 said, geodude and all them, I also dont want to see audino, paras, caterpie, and pidgey, and spearow. I wanna see loads more bird pokemon, I tell you it's difficult to find a good bird pokemon in these games. Also would love to see some new baby pokemon from either the sinnoh or unova place, as the sinno evelution scheme hasn't been tinkered, dueto the fact that black and white brought ONLY new pokemon, and no new evelutions.

Actually, I didn't find Emolga annoying and it didn't appear too much, compared to Audino, so I'd say it's likely to return :3

TheHitAndKill March 31st, 2013 6:08 AM

regardless how stupid pokemon look in this one... I still want to use the old ones and waste the new ones with them.

@forever - I agree, emolga was an amazing pokemon!

I actually didn't like that about BW1 either... I had a really hard time getting into that game because I couldn't get attached to the pokemon. I'm always really happy when I can collect my favorites and use them in the game. I never get my perfect team before completing the game, but even having one or two old favorites makes it more enjoyable to me.

Rayziken 2 March 31st, 2013 11:33 AM

I want to see practically all of the Hoenn Pokémon (I love around 90% of them), as well as some Pokémon from Kanto, Johto and Sinnoh, but only a small amount from Unova because of how they were all you could find in B\W, and they were still practically the only Pokémon you could find in B\W2 if you don't count the new maps.

Hierodula Scyther March 31st, 2013 12:05 PM

Since Black & White was a reboot, it'd be fair to the younger crowd to bring some of those Pokemon back and maybe have more evolutions, sort of like how Gold and Silver was connected with Red and Blue. Having said that, there are a few Pokemon we should have back. It'd be cool if they added an evolution to Scizor. Also you can't make a Pokemon game without Pikachu. I agree with people when they say Ruby & Sapphire pokemon need to be brought back. Those were beautiful looking games.

Fire Flyy April 1st, 2013 6:37 AM

A bunch from gens 2 and 4 since they had the best designs, in particular Budew Line, Skarmory, Hoppip, Hippowdon but honestly like 90%+ of Pokemon from those generations are cool so it doesn't really matter.

Considering Pikachu looks likely to return and that we might get another Pikachu clone along with Pikachu it seems unlikely to me that Emolga would return.

MarinoKadame April 1st, 2013 8:41 AM

We should be able to get Flying and Surfing Pikachu too. And not inversed gender like they done with HGSS, Because Chuchu is a Female Flying Pikachu while Pika is a Male Surfing Pikachu, in the game the MAle was flying and Female was Surfing ... And let's not forget the Flying and Surfing emote need to change, The first gens used Lapras for Surfing and Pigeotto or Pigeot for flying while after it was Kyogre for Surfing, then last gen used Wailmer for Surfing and I think it's still Pigeott or Pidgeotto in gen V.

I would like to see Woobat back. Swoobat really helped me with the elite four in Black and a further evolution for him ala Crobat would also be a welcome addition, at least in my eyes. Hopefully they'll have some more Hoenn natives make the crossover to this new region too, there were so many gems from that generation.

For me, the real question is what pokemon I DON'T want to return. There are only a select few that I don't want to return:
  • Geodude
  • Zubat
  • Ratata
  • Woobat
  • Weedle
  • Emolga
But apart from that, I'm happy for whatever pokemon returns.

I'm shocked you didn't mention Roggenrola or Boldore. Other than their common appearance, their Sturdy ability made them so annoying to battle. I wouldn't mind seeing them not show up in the caves and mountains of X and Y.

Daydream April 1st, 2013 10:31 AM

I'd mostly like to see an even representation of pokémon and types from other generations. Not too many though, I'd prefer to see mostly new pokémon. If I were to hand-pick a few of my favourites I'd go for: the Caterpie line, Hoothoot/Noctowl, Poocheyena/Mightyena, the Budew line and Deino's line.

Nadir-Natesse April 1st, 2013 2:45 PM

I am hoping for Gen II and Gen III. :) Houndoom and Sharpedo are two of my favorite pokemon ever and I would love to be able to get them on my team without having to trade from other versions.

So80's April 1st, 2013 3:23 PM

Really Gen II or III. i dont know if y'all noticed but many pokemon that used to be strong arent anymore. IN emerald i loved Shiftry (Hes the coolest right?) But pokemon like Dragonite and Tyranitar are really the only good ones now. remember gen I and II when all pokemon were at least decent (besides Delibird and a few others) ive stuck to playing Crystal now (its by far my favorite) if yall havent played any gen I or II games... youve missed out on a lot

I only ran into Audino once.... q^q

SolarPhantom April 1st, 2013 6:08 PM

i would have to say the pokemon i want to return and be wild, are the starters in pokemon crystal. i love those three. or i would want skitty, best one ever.

I'd want those starters too! But I think the most we'd get them from is like an event in-game :'(

:( That sucks, but it was still pretty common, and generally because it was more than Emolga it's less likely to appear than Emolga...? idk that's my logic - I'd much prefer Audino ahaha.

Foxrally April 1st, 2013 9:56 PM

I was going to say Torterra, but no. They will never put that badass walking island in there. I do want Snover to come back though. He's so kwute.

Ho-Oh April 9th, 2013 7:00 AM

With Mewthree existing, maybe something else related to Mewtwo could return. Like say Celebi because it has to do with time/past/future, and the past has passed and now it's the future, which Mewtwo could possibly be related to. Maybe it could bring back the past??

Nate April 9th, 2013 7:52 AM

to be honest I'd personnaly say Mewtwo was a space pokémon. Actually I suppose you could link all legendaries to either space o0r time... deoxys rayquaza palkia mewtwo, all relat in someways to space, and mew Celebi, and dialga relate to time (mew just does, it seems like a time pokémon to me) I think they should make more pokémon referring to time and space. I don't know if that made any sense. I also want Pikachu to be able to learn volt tackle a bit easier... It's such a good move! Pikachu is awesome!

Ravenyte April 9th, 2013 8:01 AM

There are so many Pokemon I want to return!! .^.

To name a few (loads) off the top of my head:
Hoppip, Bellsprout (what about Oddish too as a version exclusive again?), Vulpix, Cleffa (or Igglybuff), Pichu, Azurill, Budew, Shroomish, Skitty, Onix, Mawile, Sableye, Sneasel, Emolga (or Pachirisu), Swablu, Seedot, Trapinch, Wingull, Poochyena, Hoothoot, Venipede possibly Meowth, and Woobat...

I guess it would be nice to throw in Caterpie and Weedle too. Or at least Caterpie.

Gligar April 9th, 2013 8:02 AM

I don't know..... Either generation 4 or generation 3, they both have excellent pokemon.

In regards to Caterpie I think they might stick to gen 5's Sewaddle, which was kind of like Caterpie, and they'd choose between two of the bugs probably...

Marill was in the game with Emolga in Black2 and White2. Marill was also in Gold/Silver with Pikachu. Marill, Plusel/Minun, and Pikachu were available in R/S/E I think (Pikachu was in the Safari Zone).

Pikachu and clones appear in a lot of games together with exception to generation 5 only. I mean it wouldn't be impossible for Pikachu, Gen x Clone, and Gen 6 clone to appear in one sitting.

Sylveon hasn't been confirmed as a Normal type. We don't know its type yet. Also Unova did not have any Eevee Evolution either. Hoenn isn't the only region with no Eevee Evolutions.

BraveNewWorld April 15th, 2013 7:13 AM

From the fifth gen I'd like to see Darumaka and Darmanitan return.

#18 April 15th, 2013 7:16 AM

A lot of Generation I Pokemon. The three starters, & so many more that would take me forever to type out lol.

Tsunagi April 16th, 2013 12:39 AM

Hoenn Pokemon! They were baws back then. I would love to see them return, brings back memories :D
Especially the Weather Trio, they could be either bonus catchable Pokemons, or take up some space in the storyline :P

metalhand April 16th, 2013 1:26 AM

gligar and gliscor! and i hope that it would be east(or at least not so hard)to obtain the razor fang

Naikado April 16th, 2013 5:26 AM

Growlithe <3 though hopefully not as early and easily available since everyone I know used it in B2 >_>

I wouldn't want it to mostly be new Pokemon, because a lot of B/W Pokemon felt like shoddy replacements of Pokemon that already existed. And then ice cream. Which was stupid.

Also a lot of Gen III/IV Pokemon, because otherwise I'll sink back into using only Gen I or Gen II Pokemon once again.

Whitney's Shaymin April 16th, 2013 5:39 AM

I want Shroomish and Breloom from Hoenn along with the Mareep, Flaffy, and Ampharos

BraveNewWorld April 16th, 2013 8:22 AM

Should we assume that the Pokemon shown in the trailers will be obtainable in X and/or Y? If that's the case then we know that, at least, these past Pokemon will be available.

Pikachu (Pichu, Raichu)
Gligar (Gliscor)
Psyduck (Golduck)
Kirlia (Ralts, Gardevoir, Gallade)
Patrat (Watchog)
Pansear (Simisear)
Munchlax (Snorlax)
Mienfoo (Mienshao)
Magikarp (Gyarados)
Golurk (Golett)
Dratini (Dragonair, Dragonite)
Zangoose
Machamp (Machop, Machoke)
Genesect
Mewtwo

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire April 16th, 2013 8:26 AM

I have my doubts on Mewtwo, and I don't think Genesect will be in these games...one legend from an old region is enough.

amtgardbarbar April 24th, 2013 8:08 PM

I want a game that has every generation. I know that would be one long game but still. I love almost every pokemon and I would love to be able to make my dream team with out so much trading.

Jake♫ April 24th, 2013 8:16 PM

It definitely be cool to have a <insert # of Pokémon here> game, but that kinda defeats the whole purpose of having interaction between games. Of course, that's exactly what you are aiming for, but from how Game Freak and Nintendo want the games to turn out, they're going to involve trading in them to promote interaction between players.

No, those are shown for viewing only. As far as we know none of those are Pokemon that are actually in game. They are just there to show off the Game's graphics. They do this all the time with promotional material. Which led to huge disappointments in the past since they always show Pokemon not available in games for mock up pictures.

Genesect is also a Download only Pokemon. Like all the others there isn't much chance of that changing. We may get an item but still you'd have to get it from an event meaning there'd be no way to get to Genesect without having an event present.

As for Mewtwo, I don't think he plays any part in the games. Sorta like the Keldeo hype during B2W2. Big promo showing off his new form...doesn't do anything or isn't even part of the story.

But, ya they have that "Not actual game footage" thing going on so odds are against them being in the game itself.

Seeing as we'll be getting a regional bug set, Bird, Pikachu Clone, and regional rat...I doubt we'll see any of the originals in the game right off (except maybe Pikachu but ya never know). I kinda want Pidgey back in for my own biased reasons.

Oh right there are three possibles in since they were part of the statue, Golurk, Eevee, and Plapitoad.

I don't think they'll have every Pokemon up for capture, especially since there's still ways to trade with the DS. If this wasn't the case, maybe, but I really doubt they'll have everything to capture during main gameplay unfortunately!

Bumfluff1202 April 28th, 2013 9:34 AM

I don't want to sound picky or anything but I am a Forza addict but if they was to make a Pokemon game where you could catch every single one from every single game on one cartridge for the DS.. that would be epic and that will takeover my Forza addiction haha.

Other than a lot of the new evolutions to older Pokémon (like Electivire, Magmortar, Magnezone, etc.), there was some Sinnoh Pokémon (Skorupi, Bronzor, Carnivine, Croagunk, Riolu, Buneary, Combee, Buizel, and all of their evolutions), so they were included last generation. In all honestly, all of the previous generation were pretty well represented in B2/W2, so I'd be perfectly fine if they continued that trend again.

AniRain April 28th, 2013 1:25 PM

I'd love to see a lot of the Hoenn Pokemon again... Breloom, Altaria, Flygon, Absol, Snorunt... Some of the Sinnoh Pokemon too: Luxray and Empoleon obviously!! Staraptor, Toxicroak, Leafeon and Glaceon, Dusknoir, Froslass and more from the other Reigons too but... yeah, these especially! :)

Megan April 28th, 2013 1:53 PM

I'd like many of them to return, better sooner than later, because I had some serious issues getting a good team (and by good I mean that there wasn't that big of a variety, which I simply liked).

some Pokemon I'd like to return:
Ralts + evolutions
Skarmory
Trapinch
Ditto (you know why)

ilias_ April 28th, 2013 2:49 PM

I don't want old Pokemon to be in the regional Pokedex! But I would love to see Vulpix in the wild grass again! :) haha
I want to see lots of new Pokemon and new types tbh. I am wishing for a Dragon/Psychic Pokemon this time. :(
Although, I am pretty sure we will be able to tranfer our old favorite Pokemon to X&Y!

This. It get's really tiring that all the first picks were the more iconic ones, and less of the really awesome Pokemon. I'd like to see the return of Dratini and Porygon from generation 1, Aipom, Smeargle and Skarmory from generation 2, Spinda, Trapinch, Electrike, Zigzagoon, and Ralts from generation 3, Starly, Shinx, Bronzor, and Rotom from generation IV, and Lillipup from Generation 5. There's more if I think deeply, but this is the best I wanted.

I agree with both of you. I would like to see pokemon that are a little more obscure. I think it would make things more interesting.

CrossZero April 28th, 2013 9:35 PM

It could be great to have AAAAALLLLL pokémons of AAAAAALLLLLL generations capturable without any other thing, just ingame, with out events, trading and that things, that would be just awesome, but i think that would never happend u.u

Se ya

Krookodile777 April 30th, 2013 12:23 AM

Honestly I hope absolutely none, I want it like that one game where there literally was no appearance of old pokemon until after the game had been beaten

But, if there must be I'd want to see cool things like Charmanders, Squirtles, Bulbasaurs, and all of that in the wild lol

queenditto May 3rd, 2013 2:54 PM

Ralts would be lovely, more gen 3 pokemon the better imo :) That's my biggest nostalgia pokemon game for me, despite playing gen 1 and 2 as well XD

jellotime91 May 4th, 2013 7:29 AM

I actually wish B/W had done the national dex thing, and then B/W2 was only new Pokemon. While I played B/W, I was wishing the old Pokemon were there... But when I played B/W2, I was used to the new Pokemon, and I actually liked being restricted to just new Pokemon. It made the game a little easier, because I didn't have to remember the type of all the old Pokemon, too.

For the next game, I'm hoping it's like 90% new Pokemon. I appreciate the old standbys, like Pidgey (or better yet Starly,) and the new evolutions, but I really would like the main game to be mostly new Pokemon. I really like getting to know all the new ones.

pokehearts May 4th, 2013 12:49 PM

Lucario, Gallade, Lucario, Gallade, Did I mention Lucario? or Gallade?

Midnight-Umbreon May 4th, 2013 1:19 PM

eevee!!!!!!! cause eevees rock! So do eeveelutions and cuase of Slyveon. That's two things its has done, it has gave Espeon a real place in my heart as Slyveon is now my least favorite XP yeah its not my style.
I would love to catch Shinx! Pikachus, Lapras, and I know it won't happen but pidgey cuase of its evolutions XP ummmmmmmmm Zoura, but no zubats, or woobats!!!!!!!! Yeah I want to be able to have my favorites in the game :D

phoenixwright47 May 6th, 2013 12:26 PM

I quess some of the hoeen and sinnoh pokemon. I hope they didn't put kirlia for show because I want my Gallade again! Of course litwick will be back and I want Roserade again!:cheeky:
