5th Gen Your opinions of B/W Pokémon - Favourites and Least Favourites

Livewire, I like about 5 of the ones you showed me. Thanks for showing me those 5 and making my day.
 
I am so obsessed with Gen V Pokemon. Even those that I hated like Gigigear. I actually plan on using one...
 
The ones I am in love with.

Spoiler:



Ones I am not so fond of.

Spoiler:
 
OKAY, IT'S OFFICIAL, I HATE DOREDIA NOW. WHY DOES SHE GET TO USE PETAL DANCE (THE NEW OUTRAGE!! SPECIAL 120 BASE POWER JFC) ALONG WITH BUTTERFLY DANCE AND SLEEP POWDER IN SYNC WITH HER OWN TEMPO WHILE ALL MY ROSERADE GETS IS TECHNICIAN?! ARE YOU SERIOUS?!

...I mean, great for Doredia, at least it won't be outclassed by other Grass types, since her Petal Dance will be amazing, the most perfect and most powerful and most petal-full Petal Dance there ever was, but still now I'm mad that she gets to use my fave Grass move (barring Leaf Storm) so easily. XD

But whatever, Roserade's Technician boosts Magical Leaf (I can has grass Aura Sphere now plz), Weather Ball (75 power; doubles in weather) and Hidden Power (if 50, it becomes 75 base power; if 60, it becomes 90 base power). And of course, Grass Knot's power gets boosted if/when it'd have 60 power or less on a Pokemon (something really light, I guess). So I guess offensively that kinda makes up for it, ufufufufu.

...Still hatin' on Doredia though. XD And I don't care about Erufuun; if at least it were Grass/Ghost, then that would have gotten my attention. XD

Petal Dance is my new fave move ever, though. Venusaur, Vileplume, Sunflora and even Lil' Bell and Lil' Cherr (that's Bellossom and Cherrim for people who don't speak Grass) will have fun using it, hah. Marakachi gets it too but she doesn't count; I dislike her.

...Actually, that's not quite right. I don't dislike Marakachi or any Grass type (to dislike a Grass type is a sin and punishable by Arceus' [grass] Judgement), but I don't really like her enough to use her. Speaking of which, it's really too bad that I don't care for Viridian because she's pretty cool, and a Grass/Fighting legendary at that. :D

- - - - - - - - -

Anyways, having gotten that ouf the system...

Some of the ones I really, really, really dislike include Tabunne, the psychic aliens, the pure Fighting ones, and the Gothic Lolis. And, of course, Garbage and Maggykrap, but I don't think anyone is actually supposed to like those.

I hate to hate on Gochiruzeru because she has good stats and cool abilities (I love Frisk, lol; Wigglytuff gets it), but my god she is just so creepy. Between the fact that looks like a child molester, and the fact that she can see its trainer's lifespan, and the fact that it gets Frisk and Shadow Tag as its abilities... how can that indicate anything other than imminent raep? I'm telling you, there is something very disturbing about this Pokemon, ewww.

As for Tabunne and Psyliens (my nickname for Riguree and Oobemu), she's a creepy moon alien-looking thing. I dislike aliens in all their shapes, forms and sizes, and these are no exception. Plus it bothers me that she's a Clefable/Blissey/Mamanbou wannabe. Luckily, she has stupid offenses and her defenses aren't that good, so she shouldn't see much use.

Oh, and I forgot Gigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigiiiaaarrr. I knew the moment I saw its basic form that I would strongly dislike whatever it turned into, and I was right. I dislike almost every Steel type there is except Empoleon and Nuttre, and this trio is no exception. Its final evo in particular just seems poorly designed and kinda random or something, eeek.

Finally, Hihidaruma line and the genies/gods trio are ewww.

But, it's not all bad news. I've come to really, really, really like all the starters final evos, not just Jaroda, and I love Reshiram tons. I also don't dislike Zekrom anymore, although I'm still not interested in it either. XD
 
Xatu is based on a Native American totem pole, whereas Shinpora seems to be based on the Nazca Lines in Peru, so that wouldn't make much sense.




"It suddenly happened, 50 years ago, across the desert. No one has seen this Pokemon since then."

Judging from its Pokedex info, it seems to be a reference to the Roswell, New Mexico incident.


Spooky... Everything random happens in the NewMexico desert. Reminds me of the Hills Have Eye's.

So two little martian pokemon. I now like them, now that I know what they are.

EDIT:

Devil Flamingo:-- Thanks for that insight for Doreida, I think she will be especially good for battling now. But dont worry, Roserade will still kick her ass, Roserade is Poison remember. Doredia does have some pretty amazing combos though.

A lot of people dont see to like

I think she is really good. I think it looks like a parent figure of the little evo. And mice/hamsters dont change much as the grow anyway.

It's a Digimon. It just looks cool.

And now we get on to my least favorites... that are way more than the ones I like.

Pokabu could have been awesome. But then it gets this thing. And it's fire/fighting, again. Can we get another fire/flying? Please?

I liked all three first forms. Then they turn into these ugly things. Do not want.
[PokeCommunity.com] Your opinions of B/W Pokémon - Favourites and Least Favourites

I liked the first form. But I don't like those pink things... or the green...
[PokeCommunity.com] Your opinions of B/W Pokémon - Favourites and Least Favourites

The first form was ok. Too many spikes, and it shouldn't have dual spikey horns.

Veins... red nose... D:

Hitmonchan's and Hitmonlee's rivals that are nowhere near as cool or interesting, they have appeared from a mysterious past to challenge those former fighting pros. I'll place my bets on the first gen fighting duo.

Another one where I liked the first form. It looks wierd. D:

Rankurusu's mutant sister. Nowhere near as good looking. She spends her time in old libraries reading gothic literature, alone.

It's exactly the same as it's pre-evo but with more fur!
[PokeCommunity.com] Your opinions of B/W Pokémon - Favourites and Least Favourites

Why are the paws so huge? And why does it have icicles sticking out of it's mouth? Is it like... frozen drool? D:

I feel the same way. They could have been more creative, but I feel as if these two don't really match up to how Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan were presented. These two seem like real people - the past generation's actually looked like monsters (which was the intention?). But yeah, not a big fan of anything about these. >______>;
 
The two black belts are odd. I like boxing and kick boxing better anyway so I like Chan and Lee better. These two pokes are rather weak and extremely ugly and annoying to look at. I have just been pretending they didn't exist until now
 
You'll all pretty much figure out what my favourite B/W Pokemon is...


It's design and It's information about it is nice: "It's said that when the surface was blackened by volcanic ash, Urugamoth's flame became a substitute for the sun."

It's flame, the substitute for the sun!? Pure Awesomeness!

Why am I in love with this now? For some reason I was just overcome with the urge to hug it until its eyes pop out.
I wasn't too into this Pokemon when it was first revealed, and I was pretty meh about its evo. I think I love them both now.

At first I had the same opinion as you. I was vastly disappointed by the fire pig's evolutions.. Especially when Pokabu was far cuter compared to the other 2 starters. But Emboar grew on me. Sure it isn't as spectacular as the other two starter's final forms, but his design reminds me of a Buddhist deity. I love the fire collar and gold swirly design on its body.

Dageki/Nageki were simply fugly when I first saw them, but after I caught a Dageki, the odd way it's sprite moved was hypnotic and it grew on me too. Now I don't find it quite as hideous. I'm not really sure about Nageki, but I think when I see it's animated sprite I'd grow to like it too.

Awww... A lot of people hate Gochiruzeru, but she's one of my favourites concept-wise. It's like one of those goth lamp-dolls you see in novelty gift shops. Then again, I'm a fan of The Addams Family so she's not for everyone I guess... :P

Actually she is based on the concept of an angel (thus celestial angel) though I agree she is pretty gothic, a gothic angel :P

I've kept this positive but to be honest, I don't think the rest are very good, at least in terms of the designs.
 
I sense a locked thread.

Also you've got quite a few typings wrong there. Unless that was intentional, in which case forgive me.

It was indeed intentional.

Perhaps I should have named the thread: 'types that you would give to the new pokemon based on their designs.' Only less wordy.
 
Zebuarika, Kirikazan and Terakion wouldn't have been in 1st gen, Dark and Steel types hadn't been invented then.
 
I love the new "Thug" Pokemon.
When ever I battle or chose this pokemon I'll be playing Bed Intruder.

Your typings don't make sense. "Let's give a fire moth a Grass/Psychic typing!" "oh my God, you're a GENIUS. a moth that can breath FIRE but is Grass! And has psychic abilities! wooot!"

...Yeah, I don't think so. Also, why Psychic for Wargle? Normal/Flying is fine, but personally I think Fighting/Flying would have made the most sense. *shrug* :>

Gold and Silver are original generation in my books.

Just to clarify here, I'm 17 and I don't still play Pokemon games, I simply like to check up on it whenever a new set of pokemon comes out because anyone of that generation knows how much it meant to us, back in the day.

So maybe it's my imagination that's gone but the way I see it, it's the imagination of the designers. Some of them are good but it's more like a list of concepts, of which the 150 would be condensed to around 20 or 30 rather than a final version.

Btw, your username sounds like a cool pokemon. A black and white crocodile thing that robs banks and stuff and has guns and a sack of money and uses that attack that gives you money (coin toss?) and holds an amulet and all that. Would probably be of the good old normal type. Maybe a cheeky ground type; it could be friends with all the digletts.

Your typings don't make sense. "Let's give a fire moth a Grass/Psychic typing!" "oh my God, you're a GENIUS. a moth that can breath FIRE but is Grass! And has psychic abilities! wooot!"

Well, I figured that just because it's red, it doesn't have to be a fire type. It looks more psychicy to me. It looks a bit too colourful to be a fire moth, in terms of its environment. I think a fire moth should be more black and gothic, I'd imagine that that type of moth would live amongst the caves. But a colourful moth would hang about in the flowery areas and it's not right that one of those would breath fire.

I just figured that that Wargle thing could have been paired up as a legendary with that white bird thing lower down. Also is has a rainbow tail which is nice. But yeah, w/e. It's a cool design.
