Maxew555 October 2nd, 2013 10:17 AM

Audino! No, not really. Um, I think Mesdrevius in Diamond and Murkrow in Pearl :P lol. Again, not really.
Um, ok here...

4) Ditto in D/P/Pt using the PokeRadar its annoys me sooo much!

Serperion October 2nd, 2013 3:46 PM

5) Dragonite... FISHING!!!!

Name 5 Pokemon that weigh less than they appear to

CliCliW October 3rd, 2013 5:52 AM

Tough topic!

1) Sigilyph. Why the heck does Sigyliph weigh less than DUSKULL? All the sensemaking...

Murkrow October 3rd, 2013 6:48 AM

2) easy one, wailord. pokemon logic as usual

Arma October 3rd, 2013 6:55 AM

3) Sheesh that's actually a good one if you were aiming at killing the topic...

Anyway, I'll say Conkeldurr, can't believe how he's 50 Kilograms lighter than Machamp!

It is a pretty tough topic, I'm constantly googling.

Especially taking that concrete into account :P He seems way chubbier than Machamp though... Maybe Machamp has more muscle mass :P

4. Dragonair. it's 16.5 Kg, which is like.... nothing... a Dragon that size should be a lot heavier.

TaichiWind October 4th, 2013 6:43 AM

5. Smeargle.

Look at it. It's a scawny... whatever that reaches about to the waist of a grown man. Yet it's almost as heavy as me! (that's like 130 lbs).

Okay now name 5 Pokémon that... could have a better evolution in your opinion.

CliCliW October 4th, 2013 11:34 AM

1. Rhydon.
I feel like Rhyperior was pretty crappy. They should have left it at that or at least retyped it or something. It was really lackluster. And the design was terrible...

waveguidebuizel October 5th, 2013 11:25 AM

2. Misdreavus

Not that I have experience with it, but I think mismagius could stand to have slightly better stats. Design-wise, it doesn't need improvement.

Serperion October 5th, 2013 4:00 PM

3) Onix and Steelix, these two really shouldn't be related they need a new evolution and pre-evolution with their types minus the Ground also lower Steelix's stats to Onix's or raise Onix's to Steelix's

Squirrel October 5th, 2013 6:25 PM

4. Magneton. Why couldn't it evolve into something with Levitate? :(

Bidoof Overlord October 5th, 2013 6:33 PM

5. Porygon Z. Trading to much proves to be a pain in the donkey.
Name 5 Pokemon that would be terrifying in real life.

Squirrel October 5th, 2013 7:10 PM

1. Metagross. Not sure I have to explain why here.


Serperion October 5th, 2013 7:29 PM

2: Glalie

The thing freezes you from the inside out

Esper October 6th, 2013 9:25 AM

3. Muk. While maybe not the most terrifying, a living pile of toxic waste would really unnerve me.

CliCliW October 6th, 2013 10:13 AM

@Scarf I love that gif!!!! It's hilarious!

4. Alakazam. Because let's face it, something with an IQ over 9000 is downright terrifying. He could probably annihilate us by batting an eye.....

Victreebel's Bro October 6th, 2013 1:25 PM

5) Gastly
It's about five foot tall...enough said.

Name five pokemon that are a different HEIGHT than you imagined

CliCliW October 7th, 2013 5:34 AM

1. Dunsparce

According to Bulbapedia, this thing measures at 4 foot 11. WTH? that's almost as big as I am.
(I know it's probably length, but that's still longer than I'd expect it to be, all "that's what she said" jokes aside)......

TaichiWind October 7th, 2013 6:22 AM

2. Charizard.

WHAT?! How is this thing not taller than 2m? It's 1.7m tall. That's a little shorter than me. What magical power (known as Sugimori in other dimensions) prevents it from being like, 2.5m? IT'S A MAJESTIC FIRE DRAGON. It shouldn't be shorter than most adult men.

Esper October 7th, 2013 10:32 AM

3. Cherubi is over a foot tall. Even though that includes the stem, that's still, like, a cherry almost the size of a basketball. Whoa.

Tyrael October 7th, 2013 10:57 AM

4.) Dragonite. Y u get so much shorter than pre-evo!?

Affliction October 7th, 2013 11:14 AM

5) Typhlosion:
http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121210065740/es.pokemon/images/a/a9/EE02_Jimmy_acicalando_a_Typhlosion.jpg

Okay, so an 11-year old kid could still be TALLER than his TYPHLOSION while BENDING DOWN?! How on earth is this possible?!

Not only this, but Charizard, who was helpfully mentioned by Taichiwind, is the same height as Typhlosion! This either implies that Jimmy has a very serious growth spurt, or Fire-Types are midgets! /offensive

Name 5 Pokémon that learn ridiculous moves for what it's supposed to do.

«Chuckles» October 7th, 2013 12:06 PM

1) Pikachu, you can obtain a pikachu that knows surf or fly... Yep surf or fly how does it surf you ask? On a surf board. How does it fly you ask? With a balloon.
I think now you don't need to goto an event to get a pikachu like chat I think you can just teach it to them...

Affliction October 7th, 2013 12:13 PM

Here's an obvious one.

2) Pidgey with Fly. So you can fly on a 4 lbs. bird and you can't with a Gliscor, or a Scyther?!
Even worse, GENESECT can learn it. It doesn't even have wings!

CliCliW October 7th, 2013 12:14 PM

3:

DODUO. As above, with fly. No wings. Uses Fly... I love the comics about this one :)

Gliscor and Genesect are justified. Gliscor doesn't FLY. It GLIDES. That's not enough to warrant being able to carry a teenager for long distances. Genesect is a machine, just call the Golurk principle and say it has jets.

4) The legendary musketeers and X-Scissor. They only have one blade, how can they do an X with it in one swing?

What about Pidgey then? And SCYTHER? How can you explain THEM?

5: Wooper/Gastly learning Ice Punch. Ahem. WHERE'S THE HANDS?

Okay, new topic: Name 5 Pokémon that cannot make good use of their best stat.

TaichiWind October 7th, 2013 1:20 PM

1: UNFEZANT, obviously. What, you call that a movepool? I call that a kiddie pool, thank you very much.

(to answer your "explain this to me" pseudo-question... I'm not obligated to explain everything.)

alisaie October 7th, 2013 3:40 PM

2. Flareon

I've said this Pokemon for a similar reason earlier (who could benefit from two stats switching) and I'll say it again. It has a pretty good attack stat (higher than Jolteon's and Vaporeon's special attack stats) but it does not have any good moves to go with it so it's basically wasted.

Squirrel October 7th, 2013 4:36 PM

3. Pachirisu. It has literally nothing good to use it for, then again I'm not sure he can make use of any of his stats. :P

Serperion October 7th, 2013 9:46 PM

4) Shedinja

Yes It's best stat is HP, but seriously it only works about half the time

Affliction October 8th, 2013 12:18 PM

Just as I suspected.
If you knew, you'd probably have answered it.



5: Farfetch'd

Pretty much the same case with Pachirisu, but worse.

Anyway, am I the guy AGAIN to set a new topic? Last one I'll do in a while.

Name 5 Pokémon with a number in their name.

Porygon2 is obvious.

Anyway, these numbers can be in any language. Just to make this possible.

CliCliW October 8th, 2013 12:32 PM

1. going for the obvious... mewtwo

Affliction October 8th, 2013 12:38 PM

2) All the Legendary Birds.

Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres.

There's three. But I'm so evil I made it all count for one. Mwahaha.

Squirrel October 8th, 2013 12:41 PM

3. Deino! The whole family counts up in German with each evolution as they gain a head; it's really cool haha.

waveguidebuizel October 8th, 2013 6:34 PM

4. It's not pronounced that way, but Phione technically has a number in its name. =P

Bidoof Overlord October 8th, 2013 7:30 PM

5. And Porygon 2.
Name 5 pokemon that aren't there in real life, fossils excluded.

CliCliW October 8th, 2013 10:23 PM

Hmm, this could be a tough one...

1. Lotad's evolutions, but specifically lombre.
If you take him as being based off the Japanese Kappa

AAAAAAAnyway...2)

Wait holdonholdonholdon. Pokemon that aren't there in real life? What does that even mean? You can't just say that, you have to give some context to it. You know why? Because as you may know, Pokemon aren't there in real life seeing how Pokemon aren't real.
Approximately over 600 Pokemon fit this criterion.

I see it as Pokemon that are based off myths, or imagined things, like dragons, mythical beasts, etc

Yeah, you don't know, but you just pretend to be all high and mighty, while I am just calm as I get on with business like everybody does. You don't need to tell me how unknowing you are, I already know. Throw all your insults at me all you like, because I'm a MIRROR, for your information.

3) Sylveon. You don't see foxes with these weird ribbon thingies in real life, now DO YOU?

"I'm a mirror"? Kindergartner level comebacks? Really? I'm actually not surprised you're still trying to get the explanations out of me. You're so desperate for knowledge. Guess why. Guess why you're so desperate for knowledge. Just guess. It's actually easy to figure out why Scyther can't lean fly. But you can't exert the effort to figure out the super simple solution to that because you're just so preoccupied with trying to insult me while I speak the truth. Truth hurts; I wouldn't know because you're just trying to insult me with petty kindergartner level comebacks. Also, calm? Please. Take your finger off of the shift key if you want to make a calmness impression. You're red with fury; I'm sophisticated as hell. And speaking of hell...

3(btw you went one number higher, you didn't notice because you were too busy flaming me)) Shiftry. Shiftry is based off a tengu, which are myhtical Japanese goblins, sort of like... I can't actually figure out a more widely known parallel, but they're tricksters. Point is, they're not real.

P.S. Harassing me about not knowing something is only valid when you yourself do know it, and even then it's incredibly rude. So there's that. You obviously don't know though, seeing how you asked about it.

alisaie October 10th, 2013 10:57 AM

You two. Please. This has happened before and I do not want this happening again. For gods sake if you two start flaming each other again I will not hesitate to red card the two of you. So calm down and just play the game. This place isn't suppose to be serious don't make it serious. Thank you.

4. Hydreigon

Because three-headed dragons do not exist in this world. In mythology yes. But otherwise no.

Arma October 10th, 2013 12:45 PM

5. Machamp. No matter how strong and muscled you are, you'll never grow a second pair of arms. =)

Okay, name five Pokemon that would make a pretty cool rescue/exploration team together in the mystery Dungeon World.

TaichiWind October 10th, 2013 12:50 PM

Wait so we name multiple Pokemon? Isn't that kind of sort of against the rules or something?

1) Electrode and Magneton.
For some reason this seems like something that'd be a pretty cool team back in MD R/B. It'd work not as well in MDE or Gates but I still think it's a nice concept.

alisaie October 10th, 2013 12:57 PM

2.

Butterfree. Silver Wind. That is all. Also its cute and I liked using it on my PMD teams.

Well you can have two other Pokemon with you in later PMDs other than you and your partner so 4 + 1 extra Pokemon for the sake of the game? That's how I'm seeing it haha.

Arma October 10th, 2013 3:27 PM

Uhm I meant five Pokemon that together would form a team... And don't take the games too serious. XD Shouldn't be that hard to imagine a five member squad out on an adventure, should it?

Anyways,
3. Heracross. Really seems like a handy fella to have around. His horn should be able to lift some obstacles of the path. Though that seems rather useless if you're paired up with a butterfree and a Magneton XD

CliCliW October 12th, 2013 10:41 AM

4: Squirtle. Because you're going to need a water-walker to explore some dungeons

Pokefreak20ify October 12th, 2013 11:56 AM

5) Cubone and Pikachu, I always use them in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red and Blue rescue team. They work well together.
Name 5 pokemon that should have mega evolutions, but don't yet.

Serperion October 12th, 2013 1:37 PM

1)Houndoom wait no....

VICTREEBEL!

Victreebel's Bro October 13th, 2013 7:49 AM

2) Farfetch'd. After five (SIX counting X and Y) generations we still don't have anything.

TaichiWind October 13th, 2013 8:28 AM

3) Alomomola. Throw me a bone here jeez, this thing has potential to surpass Chansey/Blissey in walliness but nothing.

Affliction October 13th, 2013 10:35 AM

4: Alakazam

This Pokémon's gotten worse since Gen I. It went from "one of the best Pokémon ever" (Gen I), to "mediocre" (Gen II-III) then to "So horrendous that it's really easy to defeat" (Gen IV onwards). It really needs one, to help it. Machamp doesn't need one. It can last longer in battle anyway.

Pokefreak20ify October 13th, 2013 9:55 PM

5) Dragonite, Fan favourite and to power it up more would be cool.
Name 5 pokemon that are humanoid (humanshape) and powerful.

TaichiWind October 13th, 2013 10:55 PM

1) Ma-freaking-champ, obviously. It kicks all kinds of arse, don't even get me started.

CliCliW October 14th, 2013 3:51 AM

2. Alakazam is also pretty powerful. and as far as I'm concerned, humanoid.

Murkrow October 14th, 2013 6:18 AM

3) HAWLUCHAAA.
Flying press is too boss

Arma October 14th, 2013 8:16 AM

4). Hitmontop! I mean, c'mon he can travel faster by spinning on his head than by walking!

Esper October 14th, 2013 9:05 AM

5. Obvious one, but Mewtwo is pretty much half of fans' definition of what a powerful Pokemon is.

Name 5 Pokemon that you'd feel comfortable letting a small child play with.

Arma October 14th, 2013 9:14 AM

1). Skiddo! They kinda look like they could fit in pretty well in a petting zoo, plus they are ridiculously adorable! And their face really reminds me of koalas

CliCliW October 15th, 2013 2:22 AM

2. Squirtle! Cause what kid doesn't like Bubbles!

The_Legendary_Trainer October 15th, 2013 5:55 AM

3. Eevee

Because it's cute and cuddly.

TaichiWind October 15th, 2013 8:18 AM

4. Solosis. It's a harmless bubble of cytoslime that can... use... mind... powers actually scratch that. Go away Solosis, make way for Dunsparce.

CliCliW October 15th, 2013 11:17 PM

5. Mew

So playful and pink and harmless, plus I think it'd be able to tell that a small child is... well... small, and be able to adjust itself to that.


Name 5 Pokemon that you could wreak devastation, be it worldwide, city wide, or in your home.

Arma October 16th, 2013 7:14 AM

1. Zangoose! Dem claws are no joke!

CliCliW October 17th, 2013 2:18 AM

2. Mewtwo, the pure psychic power of it all!

Nymue October 17th, 2013 2:33 AM

3. Wailord. Don't piss off anything that big.

TaichiWind October 17th, 2013 10:34 AM

4. Tyranitar the obvious :V Come on, he has hyper beams of mass destruction.

Esper October 17th, 2013 10:36 AM

5. Magneton because, and I quote: "Magneton emits a powerful magnetic force that is fatal to mechanical devices. As a result, large cities sound sirens to warn citizens of large-scale outbreaks of this Pokémon"

Now, gimme 5 Pokemon that would be better if they had different colors.

GigaGamics October 17th, 2013 5:16 PM

2) Mabye either Weavile or Armaldo, both have good typing and both have good have cool design.

Bidoof Overlord October 17th, 2013 10:05 PM

What? How did we jump to 2?
never mind...
3) Hydreigon
Don't like the color scheme one bit.

Serperion October 17th, 2013 10:10 PM

uhh fine I'll do it

1) Lickitung
Because it's shade of pink is very off putting
4) Raticate
Because it has that annoying shade of cream on its underbelly and that weird yellow-orange on its back.

Bidoof Overlord October 17th, 2013 10:21 PM

5) Rattata - Holy cow a purple rat!

Name 5 Pokemon that would have entered Hollywood if they were real.

Serperion October 17th, 2013 10:56 PM

1) Ditto

Because it is the best actor ever

ChaoTachi October 17th, 2013 11:45 PM

2) Jigglypuff

Because any singer makes it to Hollywood these days. Jigglypuff's better than Miley.

Serperion October 17th, 2013 11:52 PM

3) Machoke because it would take over the roll of all those surfer/fighter movies.

Arma October 18th, 2013 1:04 AM

4. Greninja, because fighting scenes with him would probably be on par to those with Jackie Chan.

Serperion October 18th, 2013 2:07 AM

5) Smeargle and Chatot

Because Chatot could take the lead role in the movie the King's Speech and Smeargle would make a great setting designer.

Next!

Name 5 animals which aren't Pokemon that don't exist as Pokemon yet but you would want them to be and give them a made up name!

Arma October 18th, 2013 5:19 AM

1. Assuming that mythical creatures are allowed as well, I'd chose a Sphinx, and the Pokemon would be a ground fighting type called Pharaogue, from Pharaoh and Rogue.

Banz October 18th, 2013 5:55 AM

2) Tiger. There are no tiger Pokemon, although Entei and Raikou somehow resemble it.

I can't think of a name for it right now. Can someone suggest a name?

Nymue October 19th, 2013 3:01 AM

3. A pygmy possum, because you can't get more adorable than tiny marsupials. I would call it Pygaby (pygmy/baby)! Just normal type. :3

Serperion October 19th, 2013 4:40 AM

@Banz

Tyigight (Tie-Guy-t)
- Tiger + Night
Ground/Psychic

Also
4) A Tasmanian Devil Pokemon, because it would literally kill everything...
Since they have that Jet black fur and are ferocious little fighters

Duskaniac (Dusk-Ane-iac)
- Dusk + Tasmanian Devil + Maniac
Dark/Fighting

Vsjester13 October 19th, 2013 4:50 AM

5)A Triceratops pokemon because I can't think of anything else that could be a fossil pokemon, can't think of a name because I've never been good at naming things but type would probably be Rock/Grass.

Next will be Name 5 pokemon that could actually eat a human.

Murkrow October 19th, 2013 5:32 AM

1) Hmm...Sharpedo of course. *Jaws theme music plays*

TaichiWind October 19th, 2013 7:28 AM

BW2 says Kyurem ate people. Bianca pointed it out.

Serperion October 19th, 2013 4:10 PM

3) Wailord Steelix

Because it has the jaw and the size to

DynalMaestro October 19th, 2013 7:11 PM

Can i join?

4)Feraligatr i mean it is a crocodile and last time i checked crocodiles can devour people

Serperion October 19th, 2013 7:38 PM

5) Ursaring, only you can prevent Forest Fires, but you can't prevent me eating you and slashing your face off.

Name 5 Pokemon who are smaller than they're artwork appears to imply.

DynalMaestro October 19th, 2013 7:46 PM

1)Roselia,i thought it wouldn't be as small as it appears to be

Murkrow October 19th, 2013 8:22 PM

2) Joltik such a cute critter :33333

Serperion October 19th, 2013 9:37 PM

3) Sudowoodo

You'd think since it's meant to mimic trees it would be pretty big but nope

Pokefreak20ify October 20th, 2013 9:03 AM

4) Charizard. Every kid sees something big. Nope just 5 ft 7.

TaichiWind October 20th, 2013 12:44 PM

5) When I first saw the official artwork for Skiddo, I didn't see the riding screenshot along with it. So basically I said to myself "It's a cute little guy, how do you want to ride a cute little guy?"
Well you can ride it because it's a cute not-so-little-after-all-guy.

Now gimme 5 Pokémon who could have gone Fairy and didn't.

alisaie October 20th, 2013 12:59 PM

1.

Bellossom. It's very much fairyish to me but alas it just stayed as pure grass.

UltraWing October 20th, 2013 1:17 PM

2
i must say solosis it looks fairish

Serperion October 20th, 2013 4:57 PM

3) Politoed

Because it's a frog, and colourful

Crystalanachrony October 20th, 2013 7:07 PM

4. Chansey and Blissey could have easily gone Faerie. I mean, come on. Blissey.

Serperion October 20th, 2013 7:23 PM

5) Wobuffet

If Mr. Mime can go Fairy Wynaut?

Bad Pun is bad...

Name 5 Pokemon that have weird types considering their appearance

Crystalanachrony October 21st, 2013 9:27 AM

1. Sudowoodo. Right there in the name -- "pseudo-wood". It was basically an attempt to troll every single player who assumed it was a Grass-type.

UltraWing October 21st, 2013 10:33 AM

2
weavile it just dos not look like an ice type
