Fire Rabbit? It's clearly a pig.

I known it's a pig but it still looks like a rabbit.

To be honest, all of the starters are pretty cute and cool early on.. but like the HGSS series.. all are easily replaceable almost instantly.


I miss the type combination starters..

grass/ground, grass/poison, water/steel [fucking epic], fire/fighting [a non fat pig one]

That was one concern I had with this generation.. they really limited the starters again.. could have really made this game epic.

But I also think they made the starters basic so we would be more inclined to try out the wild Pokemon.

Looks as much like a rabbit as a sirloin looks like a strand of hair.

So I just went out and "bought" Pokemon Black [I have White]

returned CODMW2 or is it 3? and FIFA 12 [it sucks]

didn't have to pay a dime.. and have $15 store credit afterwards as well.

I just remembered that Pokemon always have 'Version Exclusives" and that I've always preferred the White exclusives..



Time to start it up.. now to think of a name for OT and a Starter.

Do you guys adjust your names and Pokemon names so they have nicknames? Or at least have it like "This" instead of "THIS". Or just leave default?

Default most of the time. Except for my Ginyu Force team.

Gotta think of an OT.. so tired of using just my actual name.

DREW is gay

Try Andrew

^Is that a pokemon?

Fan Art, but yes.

After much deliberation.. I decided to go with the water starter.

other 2 starter line:

Cool fanart, but I refuse to believe anything after Diamond and Pearl exists.

You can do that. Since every Pokemon in Black/White is not found in any other Pokemon game.

Damn.. now I'm unsure.. Snivy is looking pretty sexy. Otter power.

I have 6 Pokemon in my team (Typhlosion, Gyrados, Ampharos, Lugia, Gengar and Machamp)


Also guys please download http://pokemon-online.eu/download
And lets have some battles

Downloaded, still getting used to it but I won my first battle.

Yeah, I've only played 3 matches and I'm already frustrated at people abusing certain moves and items.

Not fun at all.

Yah it is all strategy. You have to have a team that counters everything, not a team of the strongest pokemon who you like. You need physical and special sweepers, physical and special tanks, an abusing annoying pokemon that puts stealth rock on and shit, and another pokemon that counters remaining weaknesses. You also have moves on other pokemon that counters certain common pokemon like Ice Beam for Garchomp, Dragonite or Salamence, substitute/focus punch for Blissey etc.

Like what moves/items?

I can post my team if you want, I have like 6 wins and 1 loss with it

Post it

I've stayed away from competitive Pokemon, mainly because of the repetitive feel of it nowadays. All about Rain or Sand, and the same 20 Pokemon.

I remember back when Diamond and Pearl first came out.. I was on their "ladder" [rankings] and was 115th out of the entire POKEMON UNIVERSEEEEEEEEEEEE

Dienos are pretty rare.

Building a sand team.... Have a riolu, Larvitar, drilbur and gible already

WTF? Why you no get Trapinch?

Because

Played Pokemon White all night last night and it's quality tbh. I love the storyline and the region but the pokemon are a problem for me. They just look silly compaired to Red/Gold

For me the best Pokemon were in Gen 3, followed by 5 then 4 then 2 and finally 1.

The pokemon in Gen 1 were so boring apart from the charmander family
