i feel like there's a non-zero percent chance of the protag in sun/moon befriending team skull after a big misunderstanding and working with them to save the islands.

Indigo Cephalopods posted:if it means I can buy/be given their outfit, then I'm completely down with this. with the way they're being presented, as kind of a misfit gang of people who couldn't cut it, i really get the feeling that they're going to come off as entirely bad at first but over time you all actively work together to save the islands. because, you know, without the islands team skull doesn't exactly have a home and it's more important to preserve that than to just gently caress around and block off roads or whatever hoodlum poo poo they're going to be doing.

i really liked team rocket in the games in general. they were doing small-time poo poo but it actually seemed kind of natural.

i'm late to this discussion but magcargo is one of the best pokemon. i don't care about stats, because all that matters for a pokemon is how it looks. and magcargo is amazing.

if i remember right, pokemon uranium added an evolution for dunsparce where at a high level it learns skyfall and then once it levels while knowing that it'll turn into a dragon/flying thing

it's funny to compare it to pokemon sage which isn't close to being done from what i understand, but they have a complete pokedex and sprites for like 99% of them and they all look great and like they could actually show up in a real pokemon game. then you compare it to uranium and they sort of look like discount knockoffs

those also suck but they're not as entirely 100% unappealing as probopass is. kind of like weird knockoffs at worst

also i think i was the person who said that we live in the worst possible universe because pokemon sage is in development hell and pokemon uranium is one of very few fangames that are 100% complete. seriously, the sage pokedex is so good e: although it looks like a thread for it is put up on 4chan's poke board every sunday and a new one was posted just yesterday with a progress update. they plan to just finish everything instead of releasing more demos inbetween Johnny Joestar fucked around with this message at 07:13 on Aug 30, 2016 |

"Unlike ordinary Rattata, urban areas are Alolan Rattata’s main habitat. They are nocturnal and live in nests of several dozen. Alolan Raticate serve as their bosses. As a countermeasure to the exploding Rattata population in the Alola region, Yungoos were imported and released. To better avoid Yungoos, Rattata changed their preferred environments and circadian rhythms. These adaptations to their new environment led to their changed form. They pay no attention to foods that aren’t fresh."

it's mirroring an event that actually happened in hawaii. farmers brought in mongoose to help get rid of the rat population that was booming but the rats were nocturnal and the mongoose isn't, so it didn't really work

but honestly, if there's a theme of weird, artificial pokemon made to fight legendaries and whatever the hell that jellyfish thing is then i'm probably going to assume that the techy-looking group that built their own island is more liable to be involved than the street punks who are squatting out in the road and trying to sell pokemon for cash

Dr. Fetus posted:You know, taking a closer look at Type: Null's helmet, that really doesn't look like Arceus' golden wheel thing. It's just a bunch of spokes sticking out of the neck area. i feel like it's probably intentionally supposed to resemble it somewhat. something like that doesn't just coincidentally get designed that way. especially given the thing's description.

Zore posted:swampert is a solid mid-tier design, the kind that is the backbone and standard for pokemon. it just doesn't really stand out in literally any way. Sceptile then has the issue of being extremely good except for the weird and off-putting christmas tree tail, which sucks because Grovyle may be the best 2nd stage pokemon in the series. Blaziken wins mostly by default here tbh because it is a fire kicking chicken. but what about this, huh????

i actually like the further evolutions such as electivire and magmortar, but something about rhyperior seems weird. maybe because rhydon was one of giovanni's 'things' in the early games and it feels odd for there to just magically be a further evolution.

Blaze Dragon posted:I wouldn't say that's overdesigned. It's a horrible design, it looks terrible and whoever decided it should be included needs to get fired immediately if they haven't gotten fired yet, but it isn't because it's overdesigned, just because it's bad and it saddens me that something as great as Rhydon becomes that. yeah, its biggest crime is that it looks goofy as gently caress and rhydon already looked pretty great + was a cool high-level evolution. electabuzz looks weird, but electivire looks better so it works out. hell, even elekid looks better than electabuzz.
