less laughter posted:At 121 it had more new mons than gen II and IV, so it falls right in the middle. How are you getting 121 anyways? There are 72 wholly new pokemon, with 28 Mega evos in X/Y (100) and 20 megas in ORAS (120) Unless we're counting Hoopa Unbound, or the unreleased Az Floette, or Cosplay-Chu as a separate pokemon? If we do that though, Gen IV pulls ahead quite a bit with all its variants (Spike-eared Pichu, Rotom Formes, Giratina Origin, Shaymin Sky Form, Wormadams) Zore fucked around with this message at 18:20 on Aug 19, 2016 |

quote:Palossand controls human adults, making them build a sand castle that provides camouflage and also raises its defensive abilities. Unlike Sandygast, if Palossand loses some of the sand from its body, it can restore itself on its own. When moving about in search of prey, the shovel on top of Palossand’s head revolves. It’s said that the shovel could be serving as some kind of radar. quote:Crabrawler has a personality that really hates to lose, and it’s driven not only to aim for a higher position than its fellows in terms of social standing, but literally to aim for a higher position in the landscape. Perhaps as a result, it’s sometimes found clinging to tall people or to the walls of buildings! If you try to remove one against its will, you’ll be met with a sound punch. quote:Stufful’s cute appearance and movements—plus the fluffy feel of its fur—all combine to make it super popular! .

I just realized Solgaleo's name references Galileo, double dipping on "Leo" being both for the astronomer and for being a lion. How do they come up with this, but their trash pokemon is literally just Trash + Rubbish = Trubbish.

I love that it has one eyelid dropping like it's perpetually punch drunk and Stufful being a walking plush toy is great. I'm a little disappointed it isn't Fairy/Fighting.

Oxyclean posted:TBH I've been pretty disappointed with the gen 7 designs so far. They aren't bad and they've got some cool ideas among them (Sandcastle) but not of them have stood out to me as "oh my god I need that on my team" like Honedge, Tyrantrum, Pangoro and Hawlucha. Uh?

Gen II introduced 100, Gen III introduced 135, Gen IV introduced 106, Gen V introduced 156, Gen VI introduced 72. No, Megas should not count. I'm actually hoping for around 120 new Pokemon. I imagine the reason Nintendo is releasing a steady stream of new Pokemon is several-fold: 1. In this modern internet age, maintaining hype over six months or so requires a steady stream of information. Nintendo has observed other game companies employing this strategy to keep hype up, and has finally caught on to how to do so. 2. revealing new Pokemon is the flashiest way of getting attention for the games 3. revealing new Pokemon allows them to reveal information about the game without spoiling important gameplay aspects that they don't want people to know about until post-release. therefore, I expect we'll know a full half of the Pokedex in advance. we'll probably see the starters' second forms, the island guardian of the second island, Rockruff's evolved form, prevo of Drampa, the evolved forms of Pikipek (we know it evolves twice), at least one new Ice type and one new Dark type (not counting Alola forms). We'll also see a few more Alola forms. With the Alola forms I expect we'll be up to 150~ "new" Pokemon. The Alola Dex will probably be around 300-350.

Here are the gens ranked by most to least new mons introduced: Gen V Gen I Gen III Gen VI Gen IV Gen II But like oddium said: quality over quantity. Gen II had some of the greatest designs in the series and gen V, while mostly brilliant, had some real stinkers. So more doesn't inherently mean better.

Spatula City posted:Gen II introduced 100, Gen III introduced 135, Gen IV introduced 106, Gen V introduced 156, Gen VI introduced 72. No, Megas should not count. Actually Mega's should completely count if new evolution count in previous generations because they're New Designs with New Stats, usually new abilities, even new typings and entirely new gimmicks from the non-mega form. Sorry you're wrong.

Stufful is a good friend. Red pandas are one of my favourite animals, so I definitely want one on my team. I hope they make a lot of merchandise of it. It's way too cute not too. Hopefully, it shows up prominently in the anime.

Reik posted:Uh? I like the typing, but it kinda just seems like this gen's "pikachu knockoff" (ironically, there's a literal knockoff pikachu this gen) - I fear it's not going to have an evo and just be a kinda of weak pokemon? I hope this gen adds an electric/fire, fire/grass, and fire/water pokemon. Rotom and that one legendary don't really cut it.

less laughter posted:Bewear is just Stufful on its hind legs, how can anyone like one but not the other Stufful looks like a toy and has a silly tag on its butt. Its cute. Bewear is huge, looks fake and gross and stands on its hind legs. Small+Quadruped=good, Huge+Biped=bad Also one has cute animations and one looks like they decapitated a toy and grafted its head on a statue of a bear. Nodoze posted:Aside from darkrai that list was fine till you got to Sylveon and the Megas Sylveon is the worst pokemon in existence every time I am reminded of it I shudder a little bit because huge blue eyes and flesh ribbons are the grossest things. Only Diggersby nears it in badness, and honestly they drag down the average of Gen VI by themselves.
