Anyway, my biggest worry is that they think Fire starters have to be Fighting because it's "classic" or something stupid like that. Or they make it Fighting just to troll us. ...Armz, you do realize when they said they're pure they only mean their base forms, right?

Flame Dragon Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 [quote name='Fusion X. Denver' timestamp='1358255461' post='6121517'] I just realized Bulbasaur is the only starter Pokemon with 2 types from the get-go. That's kinda crazy actually. [/quote] Its less crazy when you remember that in gen 1 every grass type ever was part poison. (Its really 9/14, but w/e) [quote name='EliminateHRN' timestamp='1358257802' post='6121527'] Maybe it's just me, but for some reason, it seems a bit early for a new generation; maybe it's because I never really got into B/W and haven't played B/W2 yet. Anyway, from what I've heard and seen of these games so far, they look amazing. I think I'm gonna get the one with the bird (X, or am I getting them mixed up?) just because the bird looks badass. As for the starters, I'll have to see what the final evolutions look like and what their types are, but it's a tie between the grass one and the fire one right now. Although, I swear to god, if the fire starter turns out to be Fire/ Fighting, I will shank a b****. I'm excited for these games though, they look amazing. Hopefully, I can get a 3DS before they are released here. [/quote] Gen 5 is the second shortest amount of time between gens. Because I'm a facts wizard, gen length based on Japanese Release 1st Gen: 2/27/96 - 11/21/99 Almost 4 years. 2nd Gen: 11/21/99 - 11/21/02 Exactly 3 years. 3rd Gen: 11/21/02 - 9/28/06 Almost 4 years. 4th Gen: 9/28/06 - 9/18/10 Almost 4 years. 5th Gen: 9/18/10 - 10/xx/13 A bit more then 3 years. [quote name='Fusion X. Denver' timestamp='1358258551' post='6121534'] Yeah, there's been a 4 year gap between Generations 3-5, but 6 will come after 2. [/quote] Counting the start in Japan its actually 3. 2 and 1/2 for everywhere else. [quote name='EmpoleMew' timestamp='1358262594' post='6121562'] By the time X and Y are released, it will have been 3 years since the start of Gen 5 in Japan, the same amount of time between Gen 4 and Gen 5. [/quote] Your off by a whole year. [quote name='King of Games' timestamp='1358269452' post='6121671'] Announcement was only a week ago. Doubt we'll get any new information for weeks. Months even [/quote] My best guess is the next time we'll hear info on the game is in April, maybe March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing that people wouldn't catch that I editted in that its really 9 out of 14. That is still a super high ratio. This is also why people say Rock takes no damage from Electric, half of the Rock types gen 1 were part Ground. The 6 that weren't were fossils, meaning you never really saw them in game. Ironically those 6 are all weak to Electric. [quote name='Agro' timestamp='1358283322' post='6121880'] You know you're a terrible facts wizard when you get your gens wrong.

Zazubat Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 With all this talk of evolution, what about Baby Pokémon? I woud like to see a Baby Milktank, Baby Aipom, Baby Absol and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmpoleMew Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 There's no point to baby pokemon. The only one I can even try to justify is Tyrouge because it has a split evolution. There's no reason we need Pichu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agro Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 The point of baby pokemon is giving a pokemon with good stats a better movepool. So I'm going to suggest a baby Arcanine. And I'm going to suggest they make an Absol evo >: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admiral Tim Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Hell no, I hate baby pokemon, they are useless and just make their evolutions seem even more inferior.  There is no need to spend time making weaker pokemon, we don't want little animal, we want big strong pokemon to battle with. Edit: posit is screwed up?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 When counting the number of times a type has shown up as a gym should you count the 1st and 2nd gens as one? I think yes more than no since the 2nd gen gyms were all chosen to cover the types missed in the 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Sage Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Final gym should be grass-type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
