I bet those muscles are gigantic when he flexes I support Psycho Boost over Skill swap :P |
18.
OK SO GUYS OFF TOPIC BUT I noticed my jeans say 'Flare' on the tag and I just laughed a little about that but then I remembered that I was wearing these jeans all the way back on April 1st to look nice for my mom's friend who was flying in from Ireland(don't ask me how i got to that memory I don't even know) so now I feel like I just pranked myself from months ago. :/ Ok continue on with the boosting psychos and swapping skills I'm done :3 |
19
Are we ever on topic? Also DOES THIS HAPPEN TO YOU? (commercial music plays) You make a post wait for someone to respond they like the post then leave? Wel if it doesnt your different! (end music) idk im tired |
20
GUUYS CAN WE GET TO 50 FOR ONCE? |
21
I would normally boo but im trying this thing called being "friendly" xD actually i just like to boo but i wont do it this time i pinkie swears! (crosses fingers) :) |
22
So I am very curious about this... If someone was NOT a ghost and they yelled 'boo', what would happen? Would he/she get banned from the thread [and is that possible]? Or would everyone hate on him/her? Or would everyone start from 1 and realize later that the person was not a ghost? |

However, if someone intentionally pretends to be a ghost, they'll probably get a warning, but please note that some people might innocently BOO when they're not a ghost if they haven't been here in a while, and are unaware that they lost their ghost status due to someone reaching 100 or so. Hope that helps! :) |

What are we talking about again? Question for everyone who is your top 5 female characters whether it be from the anime or the games? |
29
Dawn, Serena, May, Rosa, Hilda That's as far as the protagonists go, but I also love Bianca, Misty, Shauntal, Elesa and Valerie if you want to name some other characters. I mainly love characters that are cute or have a good design. |
30
Misty |

I feel like I've said this a lot of times already, but I love the uncertainty in Flannery's character. Where most Gym Leaders are experienced and very confident about their skills, she's the complete opposite, but nothing easier to beat. Cynthia is, like most Champions, a recurring character in DPPt's story line, which they should do more often to regular Gym Leader and Elite Four members too. Dawn has a great design, probably the best of all female protagonists and I liked her character in the anime. She's one of the only characters that actually has some good character development during the story. (Although I might be wrong though, I haven't watched everything.) |

Speaking of which, I wouldn't mind seeing a Fountain Pokémon, a Godzilla Squirrel Pokémon, or even a Flying-Desert-Mouse Pokémon... Like, I would really wanna see those. xD Quote:

33
Oh yeah, Cynthia is my fave. What are your top 5 male Pokemon characters? Mine are: Red, Steven Stone, Blue, Gary, and [I just realized how hard this is] um Riley. |
My top 5 male pokémon charaters are Gary, Drew, Harley, Silver and Paul. I am not even kidding.
As for females, we have Dawn, anime May, Soledad, Zoey and Roxie just because she's metal as fuck. |
34
Male's would have to be Steven, Gary, Brendan, Paul and I can't think of a fifth >~< Female's would be Rosa, Hilda, Serena, Elesa and Cynthia. |
35
Those are all interesting... I am changing Riley to N on my one though. |
36
Oh yeah! N exists! Add him to mine too :P Don't even know/remember who Riley is xD |
37
N thats it i mean have you seen him smile? xD |
38
N's got fangirls :P |
39
N is for EVERYONE xD Ash is kinda loved by fangirls lately and clemont cause clemont is so nerdy haha Edit: Who is this Riley we speak of? |

Just kidding, haha. I always found Aura powers pretty cool in the anime! (I would make a comment about Ash, but it would probably be a spoiler. xD) |
43
I was like omg hes gonna do it again aura powers were the best i wish they did more with it |
44.
I'm going to sleep this time, but I'll just respond once more for Dedenne's sake. XD I really liked how Aura powers appeared in both the AG movie and the DP series, because it showed a degree of consistency between them. :D |
45
The use of Aura could make a very interesting Pokemon story... The animated cartoons of Pokemon really annoy me at times. While I love Team Rocket, they have been doing the SAME thing since episode 1. How has Ash not been able to figure out their disguises yet? Of course, Ash's Pikachu. That little mouse has been through multiple regions and fought Legendary Pokemon... yet it loses to a new trainer with a level 5 Snivy *coughTripcough*. If anything, Pikachu's cry should have automatically fainted that Snivy out of fear. Yeah, the anime annoys me at times. Who is with me/against me? |
46
We all know the answer to every mystery in the anime is.... Ash is stupid. xD (pikachu level 1000) idk it seems pikachu and ash just reset everytime haha and revise you did it again :o |
47.
Never was a fan of ghost pokemon but always kept one at team X3 After all, how can you stop putting a Rotom in your team when you can? Superb... |
48
Lol rotom i always used a dark type pokemon instead of a ghost type....cause theyre awesome :D |
49.
If you've ever played Pokemon Dark Rising 2, then you'll know how annoying Rotoms are when you're fighting 2 Rotoms in a tag battle |
50
Hey look, I'm stealing the 50 post even though I'm already a ghost again. I've never used Rotom, I don't really care much for most Gen 4 pokémon so yeah. |
51
I've used Rotom plenty of times competitively and it's pretty amazing. |
52
Noooooo I missed the 50!!! As for Dedenne, I totally agree. Ash is stupid. And to everyone else. I like Ghosts. And Rotom can be scary at times. |
52. 53.
Ick. The Dark Rising games are fun but way to hard for me. I'd rather solo it with my starter in that game to make it easier, maybe catch another when he/she gets to level 100, cause I didn't make it very far in the first one. That game is so hard. >.< Yeah Ash is pretty stupid lol. I didn't mind the show's resets as a kid, but they bug me now, I mean it makes sense for them to reset him since they wanna keep using Ash as their main character, and who would want to watch an anime where the main character can just ohko all the Gyms? Btw has anyone ever had to replace a ds battery? My 3ds won't charge but acts like it's charging and will only play WHEN IT'S CHARGING, and looking into it it seems I need a new battery. Wanna know if anyone has any tips on best battery option/tips on how to do it/whether I should just send it in to Nintendo and ask for a new battery/etc. |
Quote:
Hello there, do you mind if I join this ghost game? Honestly I wish they just let Ash go. They allow him to grow up and move on focusing on a new protagonist every season for each region. I would prefer that over them just resetting him every region. He stays stupid all the time and never gets any better but all the cool characters that people liked leave him so why is Ash still there?! https://media.giphy.com/media/a667taV6lL2ne/giphy.gif And I apologize I have never had to change a 3ds battery nor do I know how expensive they are. I'm afraid I can't help you there bud. |
55
Welcome to the game :P I agree, Ash needs to stop being immortal. |
56
Well, I'm not sure if this has been asked already but what are your thoughts on pokemon super mystery dungeon? |
57
Excited for it! Although, I should probably play the older ones first >~< |
58
Go check out Gates to Infinity or some even older ones like Explorers of Time/Darkness if you haven't already. I have another question, how would you design a fairy type pokemon? Like, what would you base it off of? I would base it off of this(except more pink): http://www.laveracruzana.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Screen-shot-2012-04-25-at-4.37.30-PM.png |

Gates of Infinity ew |
60.
I like how you think Gilli 8D #THINKPINKPOKETRIVIA2015 Quote:
Seiously everytime I find a site for SMD there's a reviews list and 99% of the reviews are about how much they hated GtI. AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO LOVED GATES TO INFINITY LIKE SERIOUSLY BEST STORYLINE the only problems were really that you couldn't get even half of Paradise filled in main game without making fields I didn't want and that the game was too short, other than that I loved it. Mysteriousity, no belly mechanic.... |
61
My fave PMD was Sky. I didn't like Gates to Infinity at all. |
62
Infinity bad |
63.
:( Infinity supporters halp |
64
Might save Gates to Infinity for last then :P |
65
umm wats with all the gti hate I mean the plot was childish but in a good way, the characters were memorable, the graphics were epic(to me), the gameplay wasn't bad, and the game isn't bad, in fact quite good. fight me |
66
Graphics were pleasing. I was upset about the lack of Pokemon to choose from, no choice in gender, no personality quiz, limited Legendary Pokemon to fight, and the story wasn't as appealing as PMD Sky was. |
67
Oh, definitely keeping it for last :o |
Quote:
And I disagree with you on PMD sky. PMD sky has the SAME EXACT STORY as the games before it, Time and Darkness. And since I played those first, imagine how I felt when I bought sky. Oh and also, 68 |
69
I'm definitely going to play Gates someday, no doubt about it. I'll just keep it for last :P |
70 Still, Sky was much more amazing than Time/Darkness.
I, for one, played Sky before Time/Darkness and realized Time/Darkness had the exact same storyline and without The journey home recruits...and so on. But anyway, they all had the same OST's. Temporal Tower, Primal Dialga, Chasm Cave, I don't want to say goodbye... |
71
You guys are hyping it up! I can't wait to start now! >~< |
72
PMD Sky firstly has some minor differences from darkness and time while those 2 are almost exactly alike especially in pokemon. PMD Gates is an ok game it depends if your someone that doesnt like a challenge its not really hard in anyway and theres a limited amount of storyline id recommend trying it just not playing it again BTW PMD TIME AND DARKNESS FTW |
73
So, what should I play first? Time, Darkness or Sky? |
74.
I think you should start with Red Rescue Team or Blue Rescue Team first, since those are the first haha. Then play Time or Darkness, because Sky does have a lot of extras but there are also a lot of extra stories to play from that everytime I play it makes it hard to focus on the main story because I wanna play this new story real fast. However if you can refrain yourself better then you should go for Sky lol. Then after that play Gates to Infinity, and depending on how long you play these Super Mystery Dunegon might be out. |
75
Give me some credit xD I played the originals :D So I guess I'll play according to the Time I have first and then maybe I'll look to the Sky for inspiration and then find the Gates to finally become a Super Saiyan? |
76.
I come into this thread to see someone talking bad about Ash. I mean yeah it was quoted but it was said and like wow you guys really don't want me around do you. :( |

While I don't think his character is bad, certainly when you keep in mind the series did a total character reset before moving to generation V, it would have been nice if they just started a new story with a new character instead of using the same character again but resetting the team. Ash's companions did get switched around over the generations and I'd love to see a new character develop themselves through the Pokémon world. (But it's not like the games have such different stories either, so maybe that's the reason.) Quote:

Have you guys noticed how Ash always has an earlygame bird in every region? I think that's a testament to how lazy the writers are. In Sinnoh it isn't even a big event, he just goes all "hey look another mediocre bird I'm gonna catch it" |
82.
Honestly if you don't actually watch the anime I don't think you should actually be saying anything. But that's just me. :/ I also don't need to be told the same thing (they need a new character, etc etc) every time I bring Ash up either. I don't mean to be rude or anything but it's just gotten really.... bothersome. I've heard it 293024 times now and while I respect your opinion I wish that people could respect mine a little without having to go one of those many talks that people whodon't like the anime go on. I've learned not to try to shove my opinion at others I wish people would do the same for me, really. @[email protected]; |

83. Really revise 84. ^@ash
And I thought Paul released that Starly because he said it was a lower level than the others and that's why Ash took it? Of course it's been a while since I watched that episode. :T @revise and ash I didn't mean to badmouth Ash I was just saying he doesn't seem the same in each season dang I gotta go read what I wrote again and see if I screwed up >.<U |
85
That was a different Starly, Flare. He caught it before he met Paul I'm pretty sure. You might be thinking of Paul's Chimchar. |
86.
No I know how he got the Chimchar from him, I just remembered Paul releasing a Starly because of that, and thought it was the same one. Thanks though. |
87.
He's not the same because he's growing. He's learning. The situations around him change how he acts and feels just like how we do depending on the situations and the group of friends we're in. And also because the writers focus on some aspects of Ash more than other aspects of himin each series. It's a good thing he's not the same. That would be bad. c: But no, it wasn't just you flare haha. |
Quote:
Unless Ash gets hit with an idiot ball and tries to fight Brawly with no strategy whatsoever. I really hated that episode. And wait, is that... http://i.imgur.com/gHw9482.jpg who let me use photoshop again? oh right, it was me. I can't believe I actually hit the 1000 posts in less than five years. I've definitely come a long way, haven't I? |
89.
But there have been times when he's entered without a stragety and have done really well as well. So that's not the best argument. 'Sides, his battle against Brawley ain't got nothing on his battle against Elesa. |
90
I remember that first battle against Brawly where he thought Taillow was making Machop look easy but didn't notice every time it got knocked down and back up again was just Machop having great endurance, which led to Taillow getting defeated. Poor Treecko even got tired afterwards, unable to stand up to a newly-evolved Hariyama. |
89. 91.
Quote:
The departures for AG and DP felt just a little generic for me (though not bad), but Ash's expression during BW's departure was really good, and it spoke volumes about how far he has come throughout the anime. |
92
Maybe if Ash actually aged it would be more realistic... By reset we mean he never talks about the past or past pokemon and he also doesnt age :P |
93
Ash never ages. I think he got blessed/cursed by some Legendary or something [imagine being a kid for all your life/eternity]. Or the Legendaries need a Chosen One who will be there for them eternally... So I do like Ash [I never actually hated him, I just wish the producers would make him grow up a bit] and have watched the anime [up until Unova]. I think the thing that really made me stop was when Unova started, because Brock was taken out. I really enjoyed Brock's presence and found it amusing how he would flirt with every Jenny/Joy/other girl [and fail]. I was upset that he was taken out of the anime. I don't have anything against Cilan, it was just that I liked Brock better. |
94
I just think the show producers cant't have a 20 year old ash xD I still watch the anime though its still pretty cool in my opinion and theyre actually making some cool stories this season :D |
95
I think it would be fine if they gave us an explanation as to why Ash won't age? Maybe his father was a Saiyan or something? :o |
96
I'm hoping in Gen 7 they will replace Ash with a cooler protag, I personally never really liked him much. |
97
Hard to think they would. They just really like Ash for some reason. |
95. 97. 98.
Quote:
In the third episode of AG, Ash had memories of Misty and Brock, and told May and Max that Brock used to cook for the two of them. Plus, Max also recognized Ash as one of the top 8 of the Johto League, which Ash acknowledged. And of course he remembers his Pokémon too! After May caught her Bulbasaur, Ash remembered his own Bulbasaur and even brought it back from Oak, just so it could meet up with May's Bulbasaur. And a lot of his Pokémon come back throughout AG as well, most notably after the Hoenn League ended, and during various instances of the Battle Frontier. As for DP, there weren't as many references to the past, but Aipom from AG followed him to Sinnoh, and he brought back a bunch of his old Pokémon for the Sinnoh League. Even in BW, Ash remembers the times he spent in Sinnoh when Dawn joins the group, and later during the "Episode N" season, he remembers his Charizard and proceeds brings it back to him (with remastered flashbacks and everything)! And XY isn't close to finishing, so there aren't too many references yet, but they still exist. During the aquarium episode (XY022), Ash sees a Piplup and says "the one I knew tended to get carried away, though," which can only be referring to Dawn's Piplup. In addition, Ash was already with Pansy at the beginning of the series, since she came with him at the end of BW. When they parted ways, Ash said "thank you for everything up until now," which basically implies he was referring to the past. xD As for aging, it's not that he can't age - it's just that his age was retconned to being 10 again in BW, for the sake of simplifying things to present to a new audience. I say "retcon" because while his age was never directly confirmed in AG or DP, you can calculate his age by counting every single day that passed throughout the series. Of course, doing that would be completely impractical, so they just "overrode" that information with a simple retcon. And while it is true that they could've retconned him to be older, that was their own choice to make him 10. By the way, I finally found that post which I was too lazy to dig up! :D It basically elaborates on why the writers decided to reset Ash's character. http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?p=8726278#post8726278 |
99
Lol fair enough :P But of coarse i still cant see that those are good reasons to :( |
100. Begin the cleansing. Not sure if I turn into a ghost at this point or not >~< If I do, it'd be Mega-Gengar for sure! :P
All in all, Pokemon needs a new protagonist :P We've had enough Ash! I mean, the guy's had over a decade of screen time! Let it go, Nintendo! |
101.
Well, I personally don't think Ash is the problem. It's just that the anime has very simplistic writing, so even if we had a new protagonist, the anime would be almost essentially a repeat of the old formulas (with only a few new twists), assuming the same production team stays intact. Now if we had more complex writing and Ash was still the protagonist, then the anime would still have a good chance of satisfying a lot more people. At least, this is just my guess, anyway. xD |
102
Fair enough. I guess what the anime needs is a complete overhaul to revive it? It is pretty monotonous at the moment. |
103
You only turn into a ghost at 50 or a perma ghost at 150 but FINALLY WE ARE CLEANSED |
104
Hey, I'm supposed to be Mega Gengar, or at least I was until my inner ninja happened. |
105
All good :P I'll be Mega-Bannette xD Just as creepy :P |
106
I would be Mega Sableye |
107
Ghosts are awesome xD |
108
Totally awesome |
109
No doubt about it! |
110
Sooo... Name your favorite Pokemon. |
111
Lucario <3 ... I just ... love it *-* |
112
Raichu's my favourite, actually. I just like it. Like, a lot. |
113.
Shaymin and Togekiss. ^-^ "Gratitude and Jubilee" Pokemon, guess I'm just a cheerball lol. Sorry I wasn't on lately, I got a cold and it's been killing me today. |
Quote:
First two things aren't exactly true. But I don't feel like going too in depth but there have been plenty of call backs to previous series and such. Most recent one I can think of (as I haven't caught up on the anime) is Ash looking at Pikachu when he heard about Mega-Sceptile. It was subtle, but the expression the two gave they were definitely thinking of Ash's Sceptile at Oak's lab. Also I'll go update the first post lmao. |
115
Remember, you still haven't given me the 100 emblem yet. |
