  1. Doesn't the ability to learn both Fly and Surf make them perfect HM slaves?
  2. If you compare the two gifs above, why does Swanna look so terribly huge compared to Pelipper?
  3. Winona uses Pelipper, whereas Skyla used Swanna. Ever had problem beating either of the two?
  4. In which aspect is Pelipper better than Swanna? And in which part worse than Swanna?
  5. Why is literally every move Swanna learns through levelling blue (either of the flying or water type)? No more diversity, seriously?
  6. Pelipper is said to transport Pokémon and items in its bill. Would risk a flight that way, considering he could just swallow you if you were a small Pokémon? Or is this even the way he carries you with Fly?
I wouldn't use them as HM Slaves, though at one point wasn't Defog an HM? Which is where I has 1 that had two HM moves. But other then that, I wouldn't have two HM moves on certain Pokémon, unless it was something like Bidoof or a must need in a small amount of time.


If we were to compare the gifs, Swanna looks taller & Pelipper looks fatter. Most the sizes of the bills.


As for being able to beat them, I never really had a problem. I usually carry a flying type with me and usually have it over level'd before facing a gym leader with Flying types.


#4 is a bit of a trick, I can't really say. Both come from water and air, Wingull is basically a Seagull and Ducklett is a Duck.


The movepool is wraped around its type, same goes for Pidgey (Normal/Flying), Takle, Ouick Attack. Though it learns Sand Attack, that's the only Gound move it can learn.


I'd imange Pokemon are more bulker then the Animals there designed after. If I had to say, I'd have to say you'd ride on its back behind the wings.

As for overall thoughts on the two, personally I'd have to go with Pelipper. Mostly due to the original Gen 3 & remakes Wingull gave me most of my Gym wins and Pelipper gave me the win over the Elite 4 & Champion.

I love flying types, they are speedy, and have some of the coolost desing and are always available pretty early in the game and are great.

Doesn't the ability to learn both Fly and Surf make them perfect HM slaves?

I never used them with Surf at this point I normally had a good leveled water poke, but in both i used fly and it was always good.

Swanna is taller Pelliper fatter

3 Winona, I had to rely in both underleveled Absol and Castform since I couldn't use tentacruel and Blaziken effectively and my other Poke was a level 2 Zigzagoon.

4 I never liked Pelliper, because of the desingn, stats wise they are not very different.

Dunno Maybe because it is a Blue Cisne? (lame answer i know...)

As dark Sky said it is one of the few poke that it makes sense as something were you would fly, and I would risk he doesn't swallow the letters im PMD.

As overall I used Pelliper in Gen 3 but then i starrted using an Altaria

And i used Swanna more so i'll stick with Swanna

I'm not a fan of the term, so no! XD

If you compare the two gifs above, why does Swanna look so terribly huge compared to Pelipper?
Swanna is bigger, because Swanna is 4'3" while Pelipper is merely 3'11"!

Winona uses Pelipper, whereas Skyla used Swanna. Ever had problem beating either of the two?
I didn't have problems on taking them both down, however, Pelipper took slightly longer due to its bulk and its tendency to spam the move Protect!

In which aspect is Pelipper better than Swanna? And in which part worse than Swanna?
Pelipper is slightly better on movepool, because it pre-evolution form has access to Air Slash and Quick Attack, as a Pelipper it can learn Shock Wave. Not to mention it is bulk as well! Swanna is pretty on the aesthetic and has a prettier cry.

Why is literally every move Swanna learns through levelling blue (either of the flying or water type)? No more diversity, seriously?
It would be great if she has access to Petal Dance, not the best move but definitely something that will set her apart from her fellow Water/Flying comrades. As for the reason behind is idk, hahaha. Well, I guess Game Freak/Creature Inc. didn't know/have any idea how to further expand Swanna's learnable moveset, which is sad.

Pelipper is said to transport Pokémon and items in its bill. Would risk a flight that way, considering he could just swallow you if you were a small Pokémon? Or is this even the way he carries you with Fly?
I love this question btw, but yes it could accidentally swallow the Pokemon in its beak. Or not if it's tongue acts


I vote for Pelipper, I've used this Pokemon for a lot of times in RSE. (:

I haven't used them as real HM "slaves", because they're both decent Pokémon to use and Surf and Fly are very useful moves to have on your team, both in battles and as field moves. It's annoying Wingull aren't able to learn Surf though.

If you compare the two gifs above, why does Swanna look so terribly huge compared to Pelipper?
I asked that as a serious question. It does look huge. It's probably because of that neck: Swanna's tall and Pelipper's head is directly attached to its body.

Winona uses Pelipper, whereas Skyla used Swanna. Ever had problem beating either of the two?
Nope, Thunderbolt is your solution.

In which aspect is Pelipper better than Swanna? And in which part worse than Swanna?
I guess Pelipper looks kinda derpy and has a not-so-great speed stat, but on the other hand it has access to fancy moves such as Stockpile and Swallow. And I like it because of its role it played in Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team. Swanna looks better (although like its irritated in the Gen V games), but has a really limited move pool.

Why is literally every move Swanna learns through levelling blue (either of the flying or water type)? No more diversity, seriously?
Yeah, like DarkSkys said above, it's just fit around its type. You'd expect it to learn a normal type move though, almost every Pokémon learns one (even if it's just a simple status move).

Pelipper is said to transport Pokémon and items in its bill. Would risk a flight that way, considering he could just swallow you if you were a small Pokémon? Or is this even the way he carries you with Fly?
Sorry for that second question, but it looks like a fun thought. I think that'd be great, because you're probably too big to be swallowed as in one piece, meaning you're safe. Looking at Pelipper's size, a human should be able to fit in there in a fetus posture. It's probably not very comfortable, but you have yourself a nice little cabin.

I vote for Pelipper, mainly for nostalgia reasons.



Alright, ending this CLASH here. You ready?
I roll my twenty-sided dice. Odd means Pelipper, even means Swanna, and the result is...
Spoiler:


This means Pelipper won!

DarkSkys has won 150 Chips!

Sun has won 150 Chips!

Lycanthropy has won 150 Chips!

I swear it's not for gambling, it's not the edible kind either.

Our former Scenario Campaign involves post counts, whereas this new Chip system uses an in-club currency.

You use the in-club currency to buy new Pokémon for your club team*, evolutionary items and even evolving Pokémon, so on!

These Pokémon will be used for in-club Battle Showdown as well.*

The co-owners of Fighting Dojo, Brain Over Brawn, Sky High and I are going to have a meeting, we will be deciding the prices soon.

Participating any in-club activities, like the Clash, Hunts and so on, is how you obtain Chips.

As for the Pokémon, you have to buy them from the shop. As I said from my previous response:

According to club standards, it is! A bit too formal in my opinion, but hey my opinion doesn't really matter that much; whether it's you having fun or not is what truly matters! ;)

Pond has received:
- A Murkrow as a starter partner.
- 1000 Chips for joining Sky High!

If you have the time please join the following GT event as well, you'll gain Chips if you win the said event! (:

First, I would love to say a million thanks to those who were part of Brain Over Brawn for the past year. It has been an amazing journey knowing you guys! While the Psychic Club is officially disbanding, it doesn't end right there! If you guys wanna continue your progress from the Psychic Club, your Chips are automatically carried over here to Sky High. Due to the rules, a sign up is still needed in case you haven't yet.

I will ask the permission of Brendino if I'm allowed to make you guys an Emblem. That Emblem is to commemorate all the efforts and support you have all contributed! In case that isn't permitted I guess I can breed you guys the very first starter you have chosen in BOB, with beneficial IV spreads and Nature, haha.

Thanks again!

Due to the closure of Brain Over Brawn and ownership transfer of Fighting Dojo, Battle Officers are no longer needed for Sky High. Lycan's going to take over the said position's responsibilities. To applause Ketsu's efforts as a Battle Officer for three clubs, he will given the title of VIP Member.

With the club changes, the rules have been amended slightly.

Lycan and I are also beginning the price discussions of the items and Pokemon for our Club Shop.

Last but never least, Lycan is introducing a new system for our club, it will be temporarily named as Medals and Trophies. It's going to be our club's highlight, stay tuned!

So meanwhile the Medals and Trophies part is in full development and done for the biggest part. The Pokémon Shop might take a little longer than expected. If you have any suggestions to either of them, feel free to share them with Sun or myself. It might really help a lot.

Okay, that was it for the official part of this post. Anybody had any cool experiences with flying type Pokémon recently?
Let me share my story first. So I just started playing Pokémon Gaia (really loved it so far) and completely wrecked the flying type Gym Leader without any trouble, Dwebble + Rock Polish + Rock Blast is devastating, poor Gym Leader. Her Vullaby tried to counter it with Scary Face, but it was futile. (Oh no, now I need to spend one whole turn to do Rock Polish again.
Also, I'm starting to hate the move Whirlwind, I can't properly set up with my Pokémon anymore.

Pokémon Clash #3.1


Articuno VS Zapdos VS Moltres

  • Articuno is said to appear in front of those lost and doomed people in icy mountains.
    According to Episode 189 of the Pokemon anime, it guides the traveler to safety. While Articuno appears to be hostile in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team.
    Why does Articuno appear in front of lost and doomed souls?
  • Zapdos is said to gain power if it is stricken by lightning bolts.
    However its Hidden Ability, Static, and standard Ability, Pressure, contradicts that fact. Why?
  • According to one of Moltres' dex entry, even the night sky turns red as it flaps its fiery wings.
    Spoiler:
    But that image contradicts the dex entry, why?

    There will be NO voting for this turn.

Why does Articuno appear in front of lost and doomed souls?

It appears being something that they do like Blaine history where he is saved by moltres
Zapdos is said to gain power if it is stricken by lightning bolts.
However its Hidden Ability, Static, and standard Ability, Pressure, contradicts that fact. Why?

It may simply be a legend because i am not sure the pokedex is a good source of knowledge.
According to one of Moltres' dex entry, even the night sky turns red as it flaps its fiery wings.
Again is just a legend

I have a gruesome assumption.
Spoiler:
Similar to Glalie, who frozen-traps its prey then eating the prey leisurely. I believe Articuno traps unfortunate souls in the icy mountain just to devour them.

However its Hidden Ability, Static, and standard Ability, Pressure, contradicts that fact. Why?
Pressure is understandable due to the huge size of the Wing Mirages, additionally all three legendary birds are sharing the same Ability. I say it was a mistake/overlook on the absorbing part, they could have given it Volt Absorb if they remember it. Yeah, this kind of mistakes tend to happen the bigger the franchise grows.
But that image contradicts the dex entry, why?
It could be an overlooked detailed or an another of the exaggerated entries. It could be a technical difficult too as well.

(Kaneki, I'll wait for Lycan and/or DraconianWing to reply before posting the #3.2 Clash, please understand and thank you!)

I normally don't pay too much attention to Dex entries. If we were to believe them all, the Pokémon would be destroyed by almost each fully evolved Pokémon by itself. (But seriously, kudos for finding these!) There might be some plausible possibilities though:

Articuno
It preys on the fools who dare to enter his territory unprepared. Instinctively it also hunted down those travelers in the mentioned anime episode, but they most have done something to protect themselves. (If it just were that Artic wasn't hungry he would have let them die by themselves, the arctic area is basically a huge fridge, so there's no problem.) I think they bribed the bird.

Zapdos
Err... maybe it just works with real lightning bolts?

Moltres
Spoiler:

Aha, but your so-called proof is invalid, mister! The image clearly shows that Moltres already fled, so logically the sky turned back to it's original color! (Yeah, I dunno, it's probably simply too much effort to implement that kind of stuff in the game.)

Pokémon Clash #3.2


Articuno VS Zapdos VS Moltres

-Let's go for something trivial this round, nothing too difficult, yes?-
  • What does the Wing Mirages represent? When was the official term 'Wing Mirages' first used?
  • Why were 'birds' chosen as to represent the first ever trio of our franchise?

Not good with Trivia, so I can really only answer 1 question.


"Do you think Lugia really fits it the role as their leader? Why or why not?"

I would rather put Ho-Oh as the "leader", though Entei, Suicune & Raikou was saved or created by Ho-Oh in Gen 2 legend. Its based on the same types as Articuno, Moltres & Zapdos. Lugia is the water/physic type that lives under the water.
