5th Gen [June 27] OHA SUTA REVEALS NEW POKEMON!?

The new ones look like digimon used by an evil team. And that ghost girl just looks messed up.
 
I think out of all the new ones, the only one that I don't like particularly (because it looks over drawn from the sprite), is the mantis. Most of the other ones have started to grow on me (can't make a comment on the coffin though... It just seems weird).

Hopefully some official artwork will be released, and then I could make a better judgment of them.

There is no mantis. Only a Germ, Emo, Rock monster, Axe lizard, Mole, Tarantula and Sarcophagus.

Mantis=Axe Lizard. It looks like a Mantis to me, so I will call it a mantis until I see official artwork.

I've known lots of people who consider Dragon-Axe a mantis. So Palantides isn't wrong to consider that Pokemon a mantis. The picture is kind of blurry, so it's difficult to say for sure what Dragon-Axe looks like/is based on.

I'm hoping for some official art work soon. So we can actually see what the Pokemon look like instead of the pixelated moving sprites in pictures. And some of the Pokemon from the front, like Sarcophagus.

Oh I guess in a crazy person's world a lizard body, lizard tail, and lizard head makes it look like a mantis.

If an unclear image of something that looks to be a hulked up mantis to me makes me a crazy person... Then so be it.
 
Personally i like the 2 at the top battle picture. The green dinosaur is awesome but i am not gonna make any final calls tell i see some good pics.

It doesnt share any features with a Mantis. The legs are different. The arms are different. The body structure is different. The face is different. Mantis's don't have tails or fangs and Ononokusu does. He has absolutely no features that are shared with a mantis.

The image is clear because its from an HD video shown on Filb.de. You can't get clearer than that.
 
Cant wait for Desukan and Denchura!
 
So, yesterday all of this came up pretty abruptly. With so much at once unexpectedly, it was a lot to look at together. Plus, the low quality wasn't helping either. :\ My first impression on these few new Pokémon weren't so good to be honest and I just thought they were really overdone. With some time though, they pretty much sunk in and I've grown to like them.

Moguryu, Doryuuzu, and Denchura (loving it being an Electric Tarantula) are my favorites of them all. The little green ghost-like Pokémon is cute I think, and the Rock-like Pokémon looks really cool. Overall, I think the Pokémon aren't too half bad. I'm just not feeling that black doll Pokémon; kind of weird in my opinion.

As for the 3-on-3 battles. Well, other than the fact things might look a bit crowded, I'm interested in seeing how this works. It'll definitely give a twist to battling, I'll give it that.
 
Hiiro, about the electric tarantula, it's not really confirmed yet if it's part electric or not. :(

It's still speculation.

That is true. Guess I was getting a little ahead there for moment.

However, based on its derived name and color of the Pokémon, I'm pretty much leaning to the fact that it could possibly be a Bug/Electric Type Pokémon. Though we'll just have to wait and see. I would admit though, a Bug/Electric Type was be a pretty decent (and new) type combination.
 
I really like these pokemon and can see myself using these on my future team. I didn't like the earlier ones most for the reason of them being too "cutesy" for me but these seem like my kind of pokemon!

Mole Pokemon that we only saw the back of: Seems cool, but also seems like it's the kind of pokemon they'll put beady, annoying eyes on and that might stop me from picking it. But I can see me using it on repeat playthroughs just to see how it handles. It's not bad.

Mantis-Damn! Look like a Psuedo-legendary like Dragonite or Garchomp. WIll definitely be using this! Not to mention that a Psuedo-Legendary Bug-Type is a very cool idea. Being based on a Mantis, it'll no doubt have X Scissor in it's arsenal. This pokemon alone makes me want to do a Bug-Monotype run through this game already.

Drill Mole thing- A bit blurry, probably an evolution of the first mole we see and all-in-all I don't mind it. Again, not a first choice pick, but will use it eventually.

Sarcophugus-Ghost/Rock type? Seems like that, interesting combination. Probably will be an Physical attacker as opposed to Special attacker. I don't see a problem in it like most users do, it could even be a first-run choice for me. Of course that depends on the front of the thing. It doesn't seem to float though, wonder how it moves around.

Tarantula-Amazing! Probably my favorite on yet. Just it's back design has made me so excited. Definetly using it! I never liked Ariados but Spider pokemon are a great type that aren't seen often. Really like this one.

Leaf-Plasma thing-Meh, not my cup of tea but not horrible. Reminds me of Rotom, only... Leafier.

Ruby-rock-monster - One of the few I don't like much. Not into that living rock thing.

Dark-girl - Again, not my type but seems to be the kind of pokemon that deals mostly with Status Ailments, i'm betting that it's going to be useful to competive battlers.


I'm very excited about Pokemon Black and White now! Only thing I'm really iffy about is the Triple Battles, but i'll wait until I experience those to hold judgment.
 
I don't mind the thing with frills and a skirt.

I'm going to definitely catch that thing.
