Oh and Dewott to Samurott is pretty intense.
Oshawott's evolution line is the perfect transition from cute and huggable to a total badass.

The weirdest evolution line for me is still Remoraid and Octillery. I know that they were going for the whole gun -> cannon thing, but the two look nothing like each other, and trying to logically figure out how a fish turns into a octopus just makes my brain hurt.

Yeah, especially considering Remoraid were always pictured as hanging out together with Mantine, so you'd rather expect those two to be related. Octillery is still one of my favorite pokémon though! Gun -> Cannon is sort of hilarious and their movesets are pretty darn cool. Great for roleplay uses ;)

Man, I used to think that Remoraid would evolve into Matine. I only figured it out when I got Octillery on a card.

I used to have a Mantine in Diamond. I never got it to evolve. I get really annoyed by the happiness thing. It took my buneary to level 40 to finally evolve.

You know, thinking about it, Remoraid evolving in Mantine would be weird too.

I remember the old days when I saw a pic of Mantine and there was a Remoraid attached to it, but then for some odd reason Mantine's sprites starting from 4th Gen somehow didn't have Remoraid on it anymore, but I sorta guessed it may have been because of Mantyke's introduction but it was cool to see they incorporated Remoraid into the evolution method.

I do love Mantyke's cute cry, but the damn thing has a quite low catch rate. I recall the first time I tried catching one of those things in Diamond and found myself burning so many balls to get it. Remoraid evolving into Octillery though is something totally different and one you'd never expect to be related to each other, but the whole "guns and cannons" theme with them explains why Octillery has such an unusual movepool, which includes learning almost every beam-based attack.

And come my playthrough of X, I ended up catching a shiny Remoraid. Still not sure if I even want to use him, but he does have a nature that's just perfect.

You know , Zoey's Shellos can extend its neck to incredible length.


Paul's Gastrodon able to do the same thing.
So ,Can Goodra also extend their body to incredible length ?

Also , I heard Goodra can absorb and excel any liquid .
Is that true ???
Doesn't that mean Goodra can also absorb magma since that a liquid ?

Goodra has a bigger stomach than its pre-evolutions, so I wouldn't be certain if that was something that could stretch itself like Shellos is known to. I guess Goomy and Sliggoo I would believe that claim about, though.

I tested something in the splash banner. Is it breaking on narrow styles? I think it is :x Also is it too boring? I think maybe the cloud background and stuff was more welcoming, haha. Thoughts?

It's a water type...why would it be able to absorb magma? O.o

I like the little intro post at the top! I like to watch it automatically rotate ^^

Maybe because it's water type :3 cancels it out.

Rotate? What rotates?

Gliscor is a Ground/Flying type yet it doesn't know any Flying type move at all .
If only it could learn more ''Air'' attack then it could have create its own wind to Glide.
But Gliscor can only learn Tailwind that increase the speed of Pokemon .

I was thinking about Mega Gliscor .
Mega Gliscor Just need Good leg to walk since its short leg is a problem.
Even Noibat has better leg .

I was talking about Goodra absorbing any Liquid and Goodra is not a Water Type .
Also Magma is a Liquid.
And Goodra should able to extend its Arm and Neck like Shellos Since Goodra is made out of Slime.

I think the new splash is very good. I know the width is going beyond on my end (because I have fixed-width) but it's really getting in line with all the other new splashes as well, so yeah thanks Sotomura if you're reading this.

I also think the forum splash was a nifty little thing since it was thrown on to some of the other forums here as well. It fits decently on my screen but i'd say it should do the forum well.

How does Milotic fly in both Anime & Manga ???
Milotic is not a Flying or Ghost type and it does not have Levitate ability.
The Pokedex never said anything about Milotic floating in the Air.
So I don't get how Milotic can float in the air .

For some Reason , I can't imagine Goodra running !
I wonder if Goodra can float in the air by using its antenna and energy from those green dot that defies the Law of Gravity .
Those Green Dots on Goodra bodies make Goodra look beautiful ! It would be cool if those Green dots glows .

Possibly in the same vein that Gyarados is Water/Flying? Just a guess, but it's not really something that makes too much of a good case for it. But I never saw the manga anyway, so I don't really know how that would work.

Gyarados was such a heavy hitter on my team before the DS Era of games, then I kind of left it to the side to try to train newer things.

That was when Gyarados really started to get good. In the early generations when it didn't have any good STAB moves, it was usable but not great, except in GSC where it was terrible given they cut its Special Attack from RBY. But then came DP which had the physical/special split, and Gyarados was definitely changed big time with that.

Funny thing , Gyarados never flied in the Anime despite being a Flying type.
While Milotic float in the Air despite being a Pure Water Type .
In that case , May be Goodra can fly too.

Okay, no. Point here is that Gyarados is based off some kind of dragon who might be able to fly, and Milotic still resembles a water dragon spirit thingy. But Goodra is just a belly on legs. There is nothing even remotely giving me the impression of that it would be able to fly there.



Why are we even talking Goodra in the same breath as Gyarados and Milotic, it's not even water type.

I'm guessing since Goodra's evolution line are Pokémon that reside in swamps? A funny thing about that is, why can't it even learn Surf if it's a creature like that? It even gets Muddy Water.

Maybe swamp water isn't deep enough for them to need to Surf. They can just wade through it ^^

First of All , Milotic is nothing like a Chinese Dragon that flies ! It based on a Water Snake or Sea Serpent.
And Sea Serpent doesn't fly .
Also , Goodra is based on Shussebora ! A snail that become a Dragon after living 1000 year in Mountain , 1000 year on Plain and 1000 year on Sea .
And Shussebora are pretty much like Sea Serpent .

Why are we even talking Goodra in the same breath as Gyarados and Milotic, it's not even water type.
Since when Water has anything do with flying ?
I was talking about How Milotic can fly specially when there are Pokemon with ''Wing'' that can't fly .
Example : Scizor , Druddigon .
