5th Gen Victini, Zekrom and Reshiram Discussion Thread

[Bluerang1]

It's an Angel and Gargoyle! So Flying/Psychic and Rock/Dark

I'm not very fond of them as they seem familiar. But Zeckrom suits it SO well :D

From other thread, I didn't see this longer one first :P:
They SUCK! In a good way. Zeckrom looks cool. They could be Bugs. But definitely Psychic and Dark. Too much like Palkia both of them are

EDIT: Reshiram looks like a Bird so I'm guessing: Flying/Psychic while Dark/Steel or Dark/Dragon for Zeckrom. I might choose with now, both name, in English as well :o, are cool, but I prefer Zeckrom, it's design as well.

I Think most other legendaries look like other pokemon, just bigger, with a bit more special look. Like Celebi or Groudon or Even Dialga. These ones look... A bit different. They Are uber cool though.

Wow, when I saw this thread I thought, "I should've been checking for updates the past few days" since I saw it had a lot of pages. Then I saw they were revealed today :P I guess 7 pages is expected after this was revealed 6 or so hours ago.

They look amazing! I'm glad they don't look as "cartoonish" as past legendaries (the past ones look really cool too, it's just that this makes me think they're definitely appealing to older gamers now) Even with the legendaries revealed I still can't choose between Black and White since they're both well-designed. BTW Peeeka Chooo said Zekrom is white's mascot and vice-versa, and that's what Serebii says o_0 I guess they're going with the whole yin-yang thing so that it's half black/half white in both versions. Also did anyone else think that Reshiram in some ways looks like a white Zoroark?

...Am I the only one who doesn't like them? >.>

 

[cantpickagoodname]

This is ridicolous. Pokemon is getting way out of hand and starting to shy away from the original formula. Lame.

 

[PokéToast]

...Am I the only one who doesn't like them? >.>

I hate them.
I hate how all the legendaries are big, powerful robot-looking machines. I know, I know, Mewtwo was a hybrid, but Mewtwo was epic.

These ones are just... meh. I'll wait to see what the rest of the 20 legendaries that'll probably be in the game will look like. If I don't like them, I'll catch them and then just release them into the wild. xD

I just miss the more natural-ish legends, the ones that look like they have a tie with the well being of the Earth, not ones that look like super crazy robots that weeaboos in Kansas made. :P

 

[Wolfwhispers]

I like the body structure, but what's up with their tails? Also, the white one's feet look like rip off's of Palkia. :/ Still, that's the only thing I can really complain about, they do look cool, and they give off the impression of some sort of wind element, so maybe something there...?

Looks like I'm going to have to switch getting black to white because the black pokemon looks way cooler.

 

[Angelroid]

They are really awesome legendaries. imo

 

[Bluerang1]

Please don't tell me that these are the "June 6th" revelations. As they came to early and I want more Pokémon!!!

 

[Tater Tot]

Getting Black version, definitely. The White legendary looks it's gonna be the crappiest legendary ever. XD

 

[Crysta Blade]

I can't imagine we'd get much information on either legend anyway. They never told us about Dialga/Palkia's Types and Abilities until after the game came out. Maybe we'll get lucky and another Pokémon or two will be shown next month.

 

[Bluerang1]

^Yeah hopefully.

Since they've done Psychic/Flying with Lugia. I've changed my predictions again:
Reshiram: Flying/Dragon
Zeckram: Rock/Dragon

Zeckram is definitely Rock, it's a Gargoyle. And Reshiram is Flying as it's an Angel :)

EDIT: Scratch that xD Zeckram has some sort of exhaust as it's tail, meaning Steel. Maybe a Dark/Steel? To go with Mawile's evo xD

The exhaust ties in with the Industrial idea of some. I think Zeckram's man-made. That is an engine on it's tail. Or, it could be what gave humans the Industrial idea. And Reshiram could be Electricity? I need to sleep and wake up with fresh ideas :P

lol bluerang what's with you and bugs?! haven't you mentioned bug legendaries before? like in the gen 5 speculation thread back in pkmn general?

First thing to come to mind when I saw both Reshiram and Zekrom was "Oh my gosh, these two are hot!" These two legendaries definitely topped Palkia and Dialga in my opinion. Last generation, I could have easily said, Dialga looked a lot cooler than Palkia. In this case, Reshiram and Zekrom look so cool I can't choose. I'm glad I'm getting both versions when they're released, because I honestly would have has to waited until version exclusives were known before I could really choose.

I love the idea that they're doing Zekrom for White and Reshiram for Black. The entire Ying & Yang theory a lot of speculators had in mind, had it right. Plus, with RAM and ROM in the names, I wouldn't be surprised to see this tied into a whole advance technology and naturalism plot for the games.

Putting it shortly, I'm not disappointed.

My ideas on types though are either:

Zekrom
- Dark*/Dragon
Reshiram
- Psychic**/Dragon

* I know some think that Zekrom could be part Rock type because it's possibly based on a Gargoyle, but I think it differently. Though, it's never impossible.
** I have my mind set to the idea that a Light type being introduced is a little too late to happen now, and the chances of it happening is quite slim to none. However, I'm keeping the idea reserved that Reshiram could possible be Light/Dragon.

If they aren't Dragon types, but only look like them (i.e. Charizard, Sceptile) my ideas are:

Zekrom
- Dark/Flying
Reshiram
- Psychic/Flying

I presume the white one is for pokemon white, hot damn white is mine

Have you seen my posts prediting what types they'd be? Here they are:

Spoiler:

The dark should be dark/steel (dark/dragon okay..but not as good). If Zekrom is Dark/steel then I predict it will have higher atk/def Reshiram will more than likely have a higher speed/sp.atk/sp.def if psychic/flying. Basically just like in D&P one will have higher atk/def than the other and the other higher sp.atk/sp.def

Sidenote: Reshiram being psychic/flying would be ideal but for some reason I see psychic/dragon or if lucky a pure flying type or psychic/steel more appealing.

Spoiler:

I would love a light-type, and was just wondering who'd defeat it. Another poster (Haza..I think) said that light could be dark and dark could beat light. I figured that would work or it could be like a quardruple circle going on: ghost-psychic-light-dark

The white mascot (Reshiram) is said to be the cover for Pokémon Black. The same will be for the black mascot (Zekrom), who will be on the cover of Pokémon White. So, it's likely the games will have it opposite like the idea of Ying and Yang.

 

[PiPVoda]

you forget EMERALD my dear friend. not to mention latias and latios.
and i'm not tired of them i think there awesome! i have an entire party of dragons in my party as we speak i think0.o. but i do like them. i just think the next gen shouldn't have dragon mascot legends.

I agree. Though we only really had 3 dragon mascots in the last two gens (Palkia, Dialga, and Rayquaza in Emerald) I think that is enough for now. However, I wouldn't mind if they were dragon...I got a feeling that they will be.

 

[Soul.//Silver]

First thing that came to my mind is "OMG, POKEMON IS TURNING DIGIMON. NOOOOOOOOOOO". Seriously, they really do look like something from the "Digital World"

 

[/Circa]

They remind me of Digimon.
