Why are you all so mean to poor Shaymin?

Oh, one last thing; LEAVE SHAYMIN ALONE!!!!!!! (cookie to first person to get that reference)

Because Shaymin is and always will be the stupidest piece of **** ever.

Reference: Leave Britney Alone. Easycake.

Okay, this brings me to something else. Serebii says that the Torn World is situated above Spear Pillar. With Arceus up there too, how the heck does the Torn World fit there too? Bah. Also, considering that Spear Pillar is at the top of Mount Coronet, and is clearly very high up, how exactly is it that you could get that high above Spear Pillar without...you know, entering the atmosphere? I'm starting to loathe Platinum a little bit...it sounds cool, but at the same time, they're screwing things up even more.

Perhaps Arceus will be in the Torn World (Hall of Origins was really stupid if you ask me. It's like, you can't see if if you're standing on the ground, but if you walk up a hundred steps, you're all the sudden on this big floating, transparent platform where the God of Pokemon is just standing. Really, really lame. Arceus might actually become catchable in Platinum, but at the end of the Torn World. The Torn World seems to be an alternate dimension that is entered above Spear Pillar, not just a big floating landmass hovering above it.

It's not a guess, it's something they should do. I'm not telling you guys because I want to do it, and when I do, I want it to be a surprise.

Alright, fine....just tell me first

Au contraire; Cresselia is the stupidest piece of **** ever.
Actually, I take that back. Nosepass is the stupidest piece of **** EVER. Like, years from now, when they've run out of Pokemon ideas and they have 50 Legendaries per game, and the game is absolutely stupid (you know it's going to happen eventually, as sad as it is), Nosepass will STILL be the worst. Shaymin has something going for it. Or at least old Shaymin did. New Shaymin has nothing going for him...her...failed potato. (Yes, that's right, I stole that for Shaymin. Deal with it. )

Reference: Leave Britney Alone. Easycake.

Yeah, that's why I said first. I wouldn't have said anything at all but I figured just in case you didn't get it, you'd think I'm some weird freak who likes Shaymin too much.
Which I am, but you don't have to know that.

Perhaps Arceus will be in the Torn World (Hall of Origins was really stupid if you ask me.

The Torn World seems to be an alternate dimension that is entered above Spear Pillar, not just a big floating landmass hovering above it.

I doubt Platinum will have anything Arceus-related that's special, save for maybe a new plate if Giratina's Origin Form really is ??? type, although I'm still inclined to say that it's just their way of saying "We're not telling you yet." As for Hall of Origin, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but it looks kind of cool, as opposed to the ugly Torn World. As someone who's been there myself, I have to say it's pretty cool. Not entirely sensible, but neither is the God of Pokemon being catchable, smaller than a freaking whale, or looking like a demented goat.

As for the Torn World, that would make some sense, but if you look closely at the screenshot, not at the platforms but the space around it, it looks sort of like you're looking out of a plane window; you can see the lights here and there of buildings. It could just be me, but that's what I see. If this is true, it would have to be above Spear Pillar.

If it is another dimension, I'll be incredibly upset.

You're right, I forgot about Cresselia. Stupid crescent *****. ON THE CONTRARY, I may be one of the only people who actually like Nosepass. He's a horrible idea, I'll give you that, but something about me likes him. I've never even caught one, I just like the Pokemon, and his evolved form, whatever it's called.

As for the Torn World, it actually seems to be Giratina's realm, whatever it was called. Torn World is not an official name. Giratina's realm was in an alternate dimension, where he slept, lived, or whatever. It would make so much more sense to put a bunch of floating rocks and vines (those that are sideways, upsidedown, etc) in an alt. dimension rather than floating above a mountain in a world governed by gravity. Frankly, I don't care about Arceus. It's ugly, and I hate it, so whether or not it does appear, I really don't give a ****. As long as they place this "Torn World" at the end of the game, not before you get the last badge, I'll be a little more accepting of it. I hated that Dialga/Palkia came before getting all of the badges and the Elite Four.

But he's a NOSE, and Probopass has a MOUSTACHE! What next? An EYE Pokemon whose evolution has EYELASHES? A LIP Pokemon whose Evolution has a BEARD? It just doesn't work!

Well yeah, it probably would be Giratina's, but you said that maybe Arceus would be there, so I was addressing that.
It would make more sense for that to be an alternate dimension, but then again, there are floating platforms (*cough* Arceus *cough*...or wait, was that supported by those pillars? I can't recall.) and such, and this isn't a game that necessarily makes sense. But I hope for no alternate dimensions. A 10 year-old discovers a new dimension? Hah! That's likely.

For Arceus, yeah, the only thing appealing about it is its ability, which is still not entirely useful. You can't switch in the middle of battle, so unless you're going through the Elite Four or something, it doesn't help. In any case, he has the highest total stats in the history of Pokemon, so he's not likely to die against the Elite Four even at his lowest catchable level.

Finally, as for getting the Legendary Pokemon before the Elite Four, I agree. In G/S/C (I assume; I don't know exactly what happens with Suicune in Crystal) you have to seek out the Pokemon to get them, and they're still pretty tough, so you'll likely need to be pretty far to get them; it at least has that going for it. In R/S, in which this also happened (in Emerald you still had to beat the Elite Four to get any of the three), and D/P, you HAVE to meet the Pokemon right then. It's unavoidable. In that case, it should be later.

Also; Level 47. First of all, you have to beat the Elite Four to get Mewtwo who is only 3 levels higher, and second of all, why is it uneven? That bugs me to no end.

[Bowser King]

I actually like sky shaymin. I actually hated palkia at the start but after playing the game and seeing it appear out of know where with all this cool enrgy-like stuff around it gave me second thoughts. I am really excited to see what sky shaymin will have to do storywise.


Oh, and firus about the castle thing. It reminds me of.......................castle wars (from runescape). Yes I USED to play that terrible, terrible, TERRIBLE game! I was little and it was cool at that time >_>.

Oh my god! That's EXACTLY what I was thinking of! It's even at the same angle, if I recall correctly; I believe you entered from the right.

Yeah, I played it for a little bit a loong time ago. I wasn't a member for very long, only 2 months or so. I regret it, but what can you do about it?

In any case, at least Castle Wars was fun. Heck, if they made a real game like that, I would totally buy it. It's like extreme Capture the Flag, which is a fun game as long as you're not actually the one running around.

 

[Bowser King]

Ya castle wars was one of the few things that was fun. I was a mem for 3 months but all I did was mingames like castle wars .

Actually playing capture the flag is loads more fun than in video games. We used to play it in the afterschool program in elementary with a pencil as a flag (my idea; a HORRIBLE idea). Luckily, no one was hurt.

I remember trying out Runescape for like a minute. I couldn't get past that first room where you had to kill a rat or something. I was so pissed off. Screw Runescape.

Well, yeah, but it can get tiring. Especially for someone like me who gets just about 0 exercise. I'm a geek, and I'm not afraid to say it.

HAHAH!!! I'm sorry, that made me laugh. I don't remember what the first room was, but the way you said that was funny...that you couldn't kill a rat. I remember the tutorial being a little confusing (irony much?)...but yeah, it was fun for a while. Then again, things change.

That game is probably full of future criminals anyways. I got scammed about 20 times while I played that game. Stupid 8 year olds.

Also, I can't believe I ever used the terminology I did when I played that game. I mean, I hate shorthand as it is (I will use "lol" only in special cases), but GOD...

Lumby? Fally? Lobby? Zammy? Scimmy? And I will NEVER understand why I used the terms "Welx" and "Soz" (For "You're Welcome" and "Sorry"). I guess idiocy rubs off after a while...

Wow, you realize we've been having some really off-topic discussions on these threads?

[Darkslash]

Hmm it looks like the 2 new guys are from what looks like a new Intro. w00t INTRO REDUX!!!

Ohh yea some info in Shaymin Sky Forme

Name: Shaymin(duh )
Height: 0.4 Meters/40 Centimeters
Wieght: 5.4 Kg/11.9 lbs(whoa thats light)
Type: Grass/Flying

Shaymins sky forme type is nice. It eliminates its weakness to flying types, which grass is weak too.

And doesn't torn world look some what similar to Reverse World?

Reverse world if you didn't see the trailer for Garatina and the sky Bouquet

Mmm...no it doesn't. Flying is normally effective against flying. It eliminates its weakness to bug, and strengthens its weakness to ice. Probably more, but that's what I can think of at the moment without thinking about it very much (ignore that oxymoron...).

As for the Torn World versus the Reverse World, I suppose they look sort of similar. Although that glaring orange is absent...

This is what I was referring to in one of my posts. I said Giratina's realm or something relative.

 

[Firus]

Yeah, I recall that. I imagine it is probably his inverse world that many were predicting Giratina would be found in...but as I always do when I'm disappointed, I'll hold out hope that it won't be.

For such a pessimistic person, I really do do that a lot, grasping at straws when I should know it's useless.

 

[T-major]

But he's a NOSE, and Probopass has a MOUSTACHE! What next? An EYE Pokemon whose evolution has EYELASHES? A LIP Pokemon whose Evolution has a BEARD? It just doesn't work!

Nosepass are based off of the Easter Island statues. not noses. so no. eyes an lips won't be next, unless they have ancient statues of those too...

seriously. Nosepass is awesome. it looks absolutely ridiculous, which is just awesome. Probopass is even better because it has a 'stash. Shaymin looks like a chia-pet. which is not only lame, but isn't cute either. it's new sky forme is totally awesome. it's doesn't look useless, it doesn't look gay, and it looks 18 times cuter then regular Shaymin could even hope to be.

I would have to disagree, the new Shaymin does look cool, but the original although it did look like a chia-pet was allot better especially since it was an awsome little hedgehog.

 

[Spire]

I hate both of Shaymin's "formes". Stupid Shaymin is stupid.

anyway, I think torn world might be one of thoese extra after you beat the elite four sidequests, as for whats there? who knows.

Remember the shrine of dialga/palkia in the one city(not the statue) but the cave looking one? well mabey you might go catch thoese two there.

Wasn't that cave kinda small?
I don't think they'd fit.

but there is a pic of the three lake creatuer (uxie,ect..), what if a dorr appears there? room enough now, thats how i envisioned it.

 

[zrky]

well in one of the prerelease pictures that serebii has (origin form giratina jumps into the dimension) Dialga and Palkia are in the background, so i highly doubt you will find them in the little cave of Celestic town.

 

[Bowser King]

That room was useless, I still wonder why it was there. If koarin's idea is true then that would give an answer.


I wonder whats the reason for the changing weather. Mabye it has to do with the new formes or the regis.

 

[Wrath`]

Uhh off topic, but for some reason i can uload cust avitars, so mabey you guys can too?

On topic. The climate change is intriging, but only regice would make it cold, unless regigigas whos at SNOWPOINT(aka cold) has something to with this, like if the regig's are in shino regigigas is ACTIVE aka MAKE THINGS COLD...mabey.

 

[zrky]

I think the reason why it is cold IS because of Regigigas, but if I read correctly somewhere it said you can get all three regis in Platinum, so maybe it has to do with all the regis

 

[Darkslash]

they said torn world was assessable though spear pillar. But what will happen to arceus?

 

[Bowser King]

He will still be there, all it is is an extra dimension (likely located at the back of spear pillar where that wierd symbol is (not the flute).


Congrats on 1000 posts darkslash .

 

[MysticKenji]

I'm pretty sure the HoO is it's own dimension as well, so there shouldn't be any issues there.

 

[Wrath`]

I'm pretty sure the HoO is it's own dimension as well, so there shouldn't be any issues there.

I wonder if they will revamp the Hall of Orgin. too bad i wont see it, my azure flute will be stuck in my diamond.

[sarcasmz]will arceus have a new form, will cresselia have a sun form?!?!?!??![/sarcasmz]

 

[Bowser King]

Who knows arceus might get a new plate (could be considered a form).

 

[TheGlitchMaster]

A Glitch form?!!?11``!one

 

[Bowser King]

yes, glitch it would be a glitch form .......

 

[Wrath`]

but what weakness/ strenghth would the ??? type have? also more moves would have too have this type, scine the only one in exsistence is curse.

 

[Bowser King]

maybe.

My brother hacked his own "mystery" plate and I believe it learned all the moves of a normal arceus. I'll check out weaknesses and tell you guys.

 

[Zook]

They should totally make Mudkip am i-herd-u-liek-me forme.

 

[Bowser King]

Nah, that would be broken.

We need a Heard-you-think-I-suck sunkern form that would have guns strapped all over it.

 

[Spire]

Or a Mudkip-Sunkern 'I-heard-you-want-me' mating form. Wooowhiee!

 

[MysticKenji]
