Pokémon Black and White (WARNING: SPOILERS)

It was funny though. haha.

 

[Mic_128]

It hasn't been funny since day two. This is like Wii jokes, but with less to work with.

 

[Night-san]

I'd be pissed if they did rename them outside of Japan, though.

I'm hoping for an evil team like Rocket in the originals- amusing, but still ******.
Whipsplz.

 

[Mic_128]

I just want one that doesn't want something stupid that will obviously backfire (Flooding/drying up the planet, creating a new universe, ect)

There's plenty to work with.

wow how have I missed this?

does rosetta stone teach you how to read in different languages as well?

What on earth? Stay on topic. Jeez

I will infract the next person(s) who posts idiocy.

 

[majora_787]

The fifth generation scares me, and here's why: All we need are 107 pokemon, which is pretty likely, and we will have 600 pokemon. That's... Over half a thousand. Three fifths of a thousand, actually. I dunno about you guys, but when I got into pokemon back when there were 151 of them, I never imagined there would be 200 of them... let alone 600.

Good point. Technically all we need are 8 more Pokemon and we'll have more than half of a thousand, which is ridiculous in and of itself. Considering that we're definitely going to get 100+ with 5th Gen, we can actually start to imagine what it'll be like to reach the 1,000th Pokemon (holy mackerel..).

 

[majora_787]

Anyone who was into pokemon when it just started should be really freaked out. I have a feeling that we may actually have a "#1000" in ten years... I mean, assuming we get exactly 107 pokemon this generation, we would need a minimum of four more generations after that to reach 1000 assuming that they all give us 100 exactly.

I'm just glad the first gens are still cool, or I'd be so lost right now. Hitmonlee and Haunter are still cool, no matter how old they get. But Zoroark is cool too.

 

[Bowser_Gangsta]

If they make every Pokemon as diverse as theyve made them so far, I'd be happy if 200 were new in B/W. I cant wait to play it, have childlike pokemon fun, then Theorymon it.

I really appreciate this post. This is exactly, exactly how I currently feel about 5th Gen. I'm excited to see what's to come. Even though these are the same guys who designed the Gen 4 atrocities, they also designed the Gen 1, 2, and 3 masterpieces.

 

[majora_787]

In my opinion, three had the best designs ever. I LOVED Duskull and Cacturne. But 5th gen is looking impressive.

Quoted for truth.

As long as each wave of new Pokemon stays original (but never unecessary), I'm all for having 1,000+ Pokemon.

 

[Dai Tian]

One thing I'm not looking forward to is all the new methods of evolution they're sure to stuff in. I'll need 3 more Metal Coats, a few more Dragon Scales, about 10 more King's Rocks, maybe some Motorizers. I'll need to obtain 2 new types of stones, I'll need to raise this many more to max happiness, I'll need to only get Males of this line and level up even more pokemons at specific routes at specific times of day. I'll need to trade to someone while they have a certain pokemon in their party, I'll need to trade with them while it's night, I'll need to trade with them if they have certain items on hand... To even get some to appear I'll need to share data about 50 times... Make me take longer to get them in my dex why don't you?

 

[Mic_128]

I think someone mentioned it in here, but I like the idea of one evolving when they faint.

 

[ETWIST51294]

Will it turn into a ghost type? lol

 

[Wrath`]

Anyone looking forward to new special abilities?

I wonder if Gamefreak looked at Smogon's 1st CAP pokemon and took it's ability of Mountaineer into consideration? being able to not be affected by entry hazards is nifty

Magic Guard

Also Mountaineer protects you from direct and indirect Rock damage when switching in. Not hazards.

 

[Miamisportsfan45]

How many Eeveelutions will there be after this generation?

 

[UltiMario]

If they don't go into old Physical types, which is a possibility.....

There is 1 eeveelution left, period.

 

[Miamisportsfan45]

They'll have new types out soon enough.

 

[UltiMario]

Gamefreak has stated 20 million times that there will never be new types. In THEIR opinion the type chart is perfectly balanced and requires no new types.

Also, Eeveelutions are Gen 1-3 Special types. So even if new types were added no more eeveelutions would if they stay special only.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

I think he meant new types for Eeveelutions, bu which he meant like say a Poison-type Eeveelution or whatever.

I do hope that a Dragon-type Eeveelution is coming up and coming up alone.

[Wrath`]

Evee should get an evolution for the other stones, like Dusk= Ghost, dawn can act to get glacioen and obviously leaf to get lefeon.

 

[majora_787]

I never really liked the happiness evolution, but a pokemon that levels up when it faints would be pretty cool. You'd have to be REALLY careful not to over train it though, because if it were level 50 and surrounded by level 20s... It'd probably never evolve unless it got poisoned, and you left it alone.

 

[UltiMario]

Or you could purposely use Tail whip over and over and wait till you die.

 

[majora_787]

I suppose there's that. I almost think the poison thing would work better though, isn't there a hold item that inflicts poison on the holder?

 

[Firus]

I suppose there's that. I almost think the poison thing would work better though, isn't there a hold item that inflicts poison on the holder?

Yeah, Toxic Orb.

Or you could always use Explosion/Self-Destruct if the Pokémon can learn it, or face it against a Destiny Bonder or Perish Songer.

 

[majora_787]

For some reason, I don't think they'd make something evolve by fainting when it learns self destruct. If they liked things easy they wouldn't have so many evolutions through happiness at specific times. But yeah, Destiny Bonding could work. Give my Froslass a workout in the fifth gen.

Toxic Orb was mentioned below, but that's Toxic effect and not so much just poison...

I dunno though, would seem odd that they stick that even after they change the split. Though I might simply be biased. (I want Steelvee )

You mean Steeleon.

 

[Mic_128]

I do too, my bad.

 

[Chill]

You could always just go into a double battle and attack your own pokemon. If they only add 2 eevees I hope they are dragon and steel with a good stat distribution. I don't remember the stats off the top of my head but I would give the steel type 115 in HP for sub purposes and then 130 in special defense. The dragon would be a strong mixed attacker with high speed.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Yeah but there aren't that many double battles per area, so that use is kinda limited.

If Gamefreak were to continue with traditionally adding two Eeveelutions I hope it would be Dragon- and Ghost-type.

-Terywj

 

[Miamisportsfan45]

There's so many types that they could continue the eeveelutions on a constant basis.

 

[UltiMario]

Unless they stay old special.

Which means there is only one.

:V

 

[CRASHiC]

You mean Steeleon.

I prefer Stevee.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

:V

My point was that should there be the new first physical Eevee, then it should be Steel-type.
