Pokebeach claims that 5th gen has been comfirmed. This means the new game coming out will be 5th gen. O_O

 

Hopefully' date=' this is true.

You're a bit late. 5th gen has been confirmed for like, 2 weeks. =/

 

Nobody told me!

 

I knew it was coming, just didn't know when...

I think tht Rampardos is a very good Physical Sweeper, knowing tht it can hav from 368-471 ATK with a Beneficial Nature such as Adamant or Naughty. On it's defensive side, Rampardos can hav 304-398 HP.

 

I also don't like Alakazam. I'm not saying tht it's not a good sweeper (it is), but it can be taken down no problem by a speedy but not too weak

*sigh* I'll love Pokemon always' date=' but honestly after the Second Gen. the ideas for new Pokemon started getting repetitive. I mean the starters are always the same types, which I don't really mind, but they just are starting to LOOK dumb. (No offense to people who love the new ones)

[/quote']

The only starts that have ever been the same type are the pure ones and Ape and Blaze. And the whole Fire, Grass, Water is a basic thing of pokemon, and it's tryed and true so their is no reason to change it. And most of the pokemon sprites look good IMO. And, again IMO, the worse gen for cool looking pokemon was the 2nd.

Rampardos has a few problems

1) It's slow.

2) HP alone does mean bulk. His defences are both REALLy bad.

3) He has a lot of weakness and few resistances meaning most attacks will kill him, just like Ala, only worse.

Trust me he isn't good.

 

Alakazam is just as weak as Ramp in terms of defence, but unlike him he has a built in high speed meaning few pokemon can keep up with him and hit unless they are scarfed or use something like Quick Attack.

Gengar does the job better than Alakazam in my opinion. And because it's so fast, and can learn Explosion, just take down something large on it's way out.

Ala is faster. Explosion's power comes from physical attack as such you will either need to weaken his Sp ATK, or SPE for it to have that much use.

 

The fact that Gengar is still so used while Ala isn't just shows that a lot of people agree that it is better.

I personally like all of the starters, and the Grass/Water/Fire thing is a perfect triangle. They're not going to change that.

O RLY?

I admit there were some very odd-looking new guys, but odd isn't that bad imo.

Yeah as I said I don't mind the triangle whatsoever. I just think the quality of starter's looks has SLIGHTLY declined. I still like them and all, I just prefer the earlier ones. Who knows, may be the fifth generation will break that cycle for me.

Yeah, their design is going down the drain. Kanto > Johto > Hoenn > Sinnoh in terms of starters. I like the fact that all the Johto starters look dino-ish.

IMO Johto has the worse looking starters. Over all Hoenn has the coolest, and all around good, starters. Sinnoh and Kanto are even if not Sinnoh being a bit better. In terms of playability Sinnoh is the best with two OU. Kanto is decent. Johto is just bad.

But this was just personal opinion. And then you changed the aim of it by bringing it into the online meta.

And that's the point. It doesn't matter because every one things differently.

 

I mainly brought that up because I think that, in my mind, how the starts do in the meta plays a role in how I view them.

Hmmm...

Kanto's Starters = No OU

Johto's Starters = No OU

Hoenn's Starters = 1 OU

Sinnoh's Starters = 2 OU

 

I think the looks are decreasing as the OU increases.

And nice team Ice. I still need to make a good team on Platinum XP
