I still want to know the deal with the data of Jynx having another form with unique cry that Home had since the beginning.

May have been a cut Gigantimax form.


And then they remembered "Oh **** right maybe we should just keep Jynx obscure,"

Jynx shouldn't be left alone because it's supposedly racist. It was an honest mistake on GF's part.

Jynx should be left alone because it's ugly as sin

I still want an evolution for Jynx that makes her a badass special sweeper. For context, this is her base stats. She's already a special sweeper but imagine if it were... more.

Racist? Is that because of the...face, for a lack of a better word, Jinx has?

That and she was pure black back in the day which they changed to purple.

Imagine how bad things woulda been had Smoochum kept Jynx's original color scheme.


I'm very much in the camp of Jynx not being intentionally racist in design

But hoo boy Smoochum would have been, something.

 

[CannonStreak]

Speaking of Jynx, if it is ugly, then this is worse.

Terra forms

Probably left over data from a planned jynx mega or form.

People are sleeping on how terrifying Regieleki is going to be though.


Ice may be one of the worst Tera types defensively



But Regieleki's always had its main weakness be a lack of moves outside Electric ones, which Tera Blast covers.



Ain't nothing getting past a 200 base speed BoltBeam combo.

 

[Aurane]

Currently at 4 million. Still gonna farm more cash for the mons incoming.

The only thing faster than Leki will be it's ban

I just want it to get an evolution like Magmar and Electabuzz to complete the trio.

Paldean Jynx comes with 10% more racism alomgside other stats

 

[Aurane]

Oh jesus, almost froze on one of the battles. Guess that enough for now. Lol

 

[TMNTSSB4]

a set of stupidly for me

Eh, at this point, what's the point. Putting it in a whole 5 gens late feels weird and forced IMO.


Jynx is just kinda a thing I don't think the Pokemon Company wants to remember. Between it just being, weird in general in its design, along with the whole racism stuff, imo it's better Jynx is just "Oh right it exists."

 

[Aurane]

Now I got a grand total of $4,814,724 in Violet as of now. God as my witness, I will have my Hisui shiny duplicates in Violet.

 

[Jondolio]

I actually saw a fanmade Jynx evolution design that I liked a few months back by Mykemon. It was based on a viking, it was pretty cool.

That being said Jynx should not get an evolution, it was a mistake of a Pokémon that should not be acknowledged by GameFreak. I don't think it was meant to be racist, it's just fugly

 

[Shroob]

Even for its time, the fashion trend that Jynx was based on, Ganguro, was already kinda dated and on its way out after the Bubble era of Japan ended.


Honestly, Jynx really is better off being just, there and barely acknowledged.

 

[Hadokeyblade]

We got Jynx as our black mon, Ludicolo as the Mexican mon, a ****ton of Asian mons, now we need a white person Mon

Scrafty, definitely a Puerto rican mon

 

[Shroob]

Technically, the update is live, apparently? HOME is still undergoing maint for me, but some people can get in.

Still nothing for Scar/Vio.

I mean, Mr. Mime is for sure French. Like all mimes are.

I was waiting for someone to point this out. Lmao

 

[Shroob]

It's funny seeing the Serebii tweet about the patch and reading the replies. All the people going "I can finally bring -insert Pokemon here- to Paldea!"

And then they're not in the code and like

Jynx deserves its Redemption.

if porygon can get it’s, then so can jynx. After being left out in Gen 4, it deserves a cool opera Viking evolution. Something like this:

So much potential and a great type combo, honestly it’s one of my favorite ice types.

Even if I did want it I don't think GameFreak would want to touch it again. It's probably seen as a mistake by most of them (which it is)

Also I kinda think this particular design doesn't help with any of the problems people have with Jynx

 

[Shroob]

Porygon unironically did nothing wrong, it was always Pikachu that caused the seizure lights.
