Pokemon X and Pokemon Y


Tentacruel

Recommended Posts

Gen 6 seems to be more coherent than previous generations. There's a bunch of overarching themes (genetics, Norse mythology, sword and sorcery RPGs, and Paris - how they've managed to stick that into one region is beyond me, kudos). If the Elite 4 thing is a conscious decision, that is total genius.

I'm enjoying Flabébé's line essentially being a bunch of Monet paintings (in particular, Floette is totally Woman with a Parasol, and Florges is Monet's Sunflowers). There also seems to be a load of mountaineering references, or generally Alps stuff (see Wulfric, for example).

Still a couple of super-dodgy designs though.

It made me quite happy that someone noticed that. I've been set on doing a French painter theme for my Pokemon names, and that totally reminded me.

by the way, if you guys need a reason why the 3 birds are in kalos, just see their french name. Amd prepare to shat all the bricks.

Moltres refers to Ra, the Egyptian sun god, so that theory doesn't hold water. (Highlight to reveal.)

2>1. The birds are mainly Norse. Kinda wish Moltres' name referenced Freyr, that would have been amazing. (Odin, Thor, Freyr the 3 most important gods).

 

And now I kind of have to name Articuno Odin and Zapdos Thor all the time now.

I would love some more special dark moves. So I can use Houndoom more easily than BW, that wasn't very fun farming Blue Shard near Driftveil with Super Repels

Maybe they think Dark is too good for a gym? I'm being silly there. I want a dark gym mainly because I like Dark types.

So want a Noibat, I can guarantee that will be in my team. Might go Water/Grass/Fire as start.

Hate the Gardevoir mega might just keep it as normal.

 

Gym 1's curb was pretty fast. I mean from Erika to Sabrina/Koga was over 10 levels (Erika was 29 with Sabrina starting at 38 and Koga 37 with it 30 to 44 in Yellow (with Sabrina 50))

 

Zygarde looks good.

 

Gen V was just stupid in terms of legendaries. Reminds me of the finale of the DPPt Manga - Shaymin Vs Giratina with Regigigas, and others involved.

 

Now I'm gutted about working the 13th now.

 

Thinking:Talconflame/Charizard, Venusaur/Depends on a good grass type, Greninja, Tyrantrum (if it can EQ), Noivern/Panogoro/Unless something else can learn Fighting moves and I just know last will be HM slave. Sick of Fighting/Grass after using Breloom so many times on XD.

*Reads post*

You have got to be kidding me? All that info can't have been elaborate fakes, that's a load of Bouffalant crap.

 

It has to be real, it has to be. C'mon, Goomy master race!

 

Its pretty Farfetch'd. 

 

Also, Noivern's ability confirmed Frisk and it can learn Hurricane and Nasty Plot.

I nominate Nintendo for greatest trolls in all of gaming history if that post is true. But the method of the post release just oozes of fake, I'd expect a public announcement if that post were actually true. and I haven't seen one, so I doubt it is.

[spoiler=Possible trio being discovered]

 

Josh has found references to a legendary Wolf pokemon, which would be Fenrir. NPCs reference the wolf, and apparently there is a suspicious ice mirror in an empty room in the middle of nowhere.

 

There is also a place called Sea Spirit's Den, which could be Jormungandr. All that is left is Hel.

 

The trio might be like the Regis and are hidden until you unlock them.[/spoiler]

 

EDIT: You can see your character's breath in cold environments
