I dunno if I'll ever be as active again as I was in version 4... But sign me up! I'll have to let you down on your offer for me to become an Owner, but I'll happily become a member again.

I'll answer some Gen V questions while I'm at it.

Reshiram or Zekrom?
While I think Zekrom's design is closer to that of the Western dragon, he also has a more mechanical look which I don't like. And I really like the take Nintendo took on the wyvern look for Reshiram. Plus, I prefer using Reshiram in the final battle against N, because it looks noble and just and all, while Zekrom looks pretty darn evil.
Haxorus or Hydreigon?
Haxorus. I detest multiple heads.
What is your opinion on Druddigon?

I think he´s awesome because he´s intentionally made ugly.

Well...you replied, so that's one thing!

Sorry you can't be as active as your were in V4...but that's O.k. too.

Haha, I gotta agree with you on all three of your answers there. Although it's not because Hydreigon has three heads...after all, Haxorus' head is a double-bladed axe. I just think Hydreigon is too ridiculously evil-looking. And it's pokédex entries kinda imply that it'd sooner eat you than show you affection. It's movepool is also a bit of a failure, with Dark Pulse only being an Egg Move.

I should probably answer my own questions...

Drayden vs. Iris?
Definitely Drayden. Iris' anime appearances ruined her for me, although her Excadrill is pretty cool. Drayden looks cool, really suits his role as city mayor, and is good because you don't encounter him earlier in the game.

I don't know. I'll probably never post in this thread again.

However, I do feel like the thread-starter list of dragons is pretty arbitrarily generated. For example, what makes Kingdra any more of a dragon than Seadra? They are both based on real-life seahorses, only one has Dragon-typing. I feel like Altaria is being singled out just because of its appearance--so why Kingdra, who doesn't resemble a "dragon" in any (Western and Orient) sense? Then there's Vibrava, who isn't a dragon at all, but more of an insect.

I also feel like Charmander / Charmeleon are dragons as much as Bagon and Shelgon are. And Onix and Steelix too (those guys even learn Dragonbreath).

Er, and Aerodactyl / Tyranitar are dinosaurs, not dragons. Aerodactyl, I feel is only on this list because Lance had one--he's only a pterodactyl, far from any fire-breathing cryptozoological creature. Plus, if they're both on this list, then Tropius (lolololol Dragon Dance + Razor Leaf) should be here too (and probably Archeops).

- - - - -

Ehhhhhhh, Hydreigon only has one brain though, so the other two heads should just be regarded as extra heads to feed. And are you kidding? Hydreigon can learn like 16 of the 17 types, something only Octillery can top (since I think Octillery learns 15 attacking types, rather than just moves). I don't really like Hydreigon or Haxorus, though. Deino and Fraxure are cute.

Well, you've got an opinion - that's good. Should I add you to the member's list?

Personally I agree with you on Vibrava - it's just a bug really. However, the reason Kingdra is more of a dragon than Seadra is its' Dragon typing and the ability to learn more dragon moves.

Tropius only learns Dragon Dance as an egg move, as far as I know. Most people actually argue against Altaria because of its' appearance. Aerodactyl...well, yeah, it's used by Lance, can learn quite a few dragon moves, and, like Tyranitar, is a dinosaur. And a common assumption is that Dragons are related to dinosaurs. They can also learn an amazing amount of elemental moves, like most dragons, and as you mentioned fire-breathing They both learn Flamethrower.

I do agree on Deino and Fraxure though. Axew's fairly cute, but a little too small, and Iris in the anime ruins him for me.

I was a member in the last version.

What is your favourite Dragon?
Haxorus.

Should Garchomp and/or Salamence be Uber?
I'll go along with the populace, so Garchomp should be & Salamence should not be.

Lance vs. Clair?
Lance. He's not a jerk like Clair.

Drayden vs. Iris?
I like both.

Which Dragon looks best in its shiny form?
As far as I know, Haxorus.

Which is your favourite forme of Giratina? 'Origin' or 'Altered'?
I like the serpentine 'orgin' forme.

Should Tyranitar be a Dragon?
I think it's supposed to be a dinosaur... but then, dinosaurs were called dragons before the word dinosaur existed... & dragon could pretty much mean "massive reptile"...

Should Altaria be a Dragon?
I belive there is a reason for it being Dragon-typed... would have to ask Nintendo why...

Favourite legendary Dragon?
Latias or Zekrom.

Reshiram or Zekrom?
Zekrom.

Haxorus or Hydreigon?
Haxorus.

What is your opinion on Druddigon?
It's a rather interesting pokemon...

Hey, don't give up so easily!

& with my reasoning for Tyranitar's status, wouldn't that make Meganuim, Rampardos & a few others dragons too?

Rampardos I could kinda see...but it's sort of a grey area, just like when we decided that Gyarados is a Dragon and Milotic isn't.

Meganium? No, it's a plant. I honestly don't think you could justify a plant-based Dragon, and think that there should never be a Grass/Dragon pokémon. Or a Bug/Dragon either.

The Chinese & the Japanese would beg to differ...

From what my oriental loving cousin told me, both countries has legends of dragons that lives in the bamboo forest.

So I could see a bamboo-like serpent Grass/Dragon pokemon coming to be.

A dragon living in the forest I could accept. I mean, they're versatile, right?

But what I do not want to see is a Dragon that has bits of plant growing from it, like most Grass-types are.

Keyword: versatile.

This mean Dragon can be paired with ANY type.

I fail to see the problem with Grass/Dragon & Bug/Dragon is...
(& Flygon is pretty much a bug, even with the Ground/Dragon typing... in fact, from what I recall, it can only reproduce with bugs!)
