only graveler was decently named

Geodude comes from geode + dude, so it's actually a pretty clever name. But yeah, Golem is probably the laziest/most unimaginative name from gen I, along with Seel and Persian. Electrode and Gloom are different from those because they can at least double as electric + explode and glume + bloom, respectively.

Seel is also an anagram for eels, which live in the sea :tinfoil:

They previewed new official merch today featuring all legendaries and mythicals revealed up to Magearna, and Phione isn't on it. So I guess that finally settles that age old debate Bulbapedia's been having with itself for over a decade now?

That's so cluttered I can't even tell if Manaphy is on it. But I assume it is. gently caress Phione, that poo poo ain't legendary.

Manaphy is between Ho-Oh and Groudon.

I battled against a whole squad of people led by one of the most prominent minds in Kalos so that I could catch this doombird. You can't expect me not to use my doombird to flatten youngsters rambling about shorts into the dirt. All these other trainers need to be put in their place :colbert:

Weird thing to get so hung up on.

The Lake Guardians being psychic types make sense since they're supposed to represent elements of the spirit... or mind if you will.

Yeah but all their names (both in English and in Japanese) are references to fairies. So Psychic/Fairy would have fit them.

The only ones with a useful number of resistances are Walrein and Mamoswine, and only if they have Thick Fat.

Snowslash has 1 immunity (Poison) and 8 resistances (2x to Bug, Dragon, Fairy, Flying, Grass, Normal and Psychic, and 4x to Ice).
