The first few Alola episodes are probably already done
Kek,Serenafags are in denial as always.The only girl who ever went with Ash to another region was Misty so why is Serena more special then all the other girls?
>>28109247
Serena is a horrible Character, I'd rather Bonnie.
Ok /vp/, i admit i always hated gardevoir.

Post your idle thoughts and speculation as to how things work here.
Human on human violence is incredibly rare in the pokemon girl. Its a deep seated social and psychological thing, to the extent where not only do hardened criminals hardly ever resort to personally hurting someone, the though wouldn't even occur to them. It'd be like a new york mugger engaging in cannibalism.
The starters available to you in games aren't the starters everyone gets to choose from, they're just the ones available when YOU choose. Either thanks to connections or luck you get some particularly good choices on the day you go in for your first pokemon.
Levels are an abstraction. They're only there to mark the growth of your pokemon and the comparative challenge that your opponents pose. Now this may seem obvious, but there is a few ramifications.
Things like evolutionary breakpoints by level and moves learned reflect how long it takes YOU, the player character, to get your pokemon to that stage. Most people aren't as good as you and some, in their niches, are better. That is why you run across youngsters and grunts with over leveled mons that haven't evolved; it'll take longer for them to get there because they're simply not as proficient trainers as you are.
This is also why you get things like Lance having underevolved Dragonites with illegal move sets. He's a dragon master, he's able to get more out of dragons than you are. When you run into things like this its not the computer cheating, its a trainer who has an edge on you in this respective field.
All pokemon have at the very least a low level psychic presence. This is reflected in a few ways, like how they can understand humans (especially trainer commands) and communicate with other pokemon despite having no shared language. It also shows up in a few other ways; in particular in the anime, you notice how one moment a Hyper Beam might level a building but the next a Flamethrower right to the face of a human only leaves some soot? Most pokemon are good hearted and not killers at the core, and generally (subconsciously perhaps) pull their punches so to speak when it'll do permanent, severe harm to a person or other pokemon. Thats why they can use all these crazy attacks in battle without killing each other. There are exceptions, but they're rare. This applies more to the anime though, as pokedex entries in the games seem to paint some pokemon as being more vicious.
Building on the psychic presence thing, when the term "strong trainer" gets bandied about its not just referring to someone with a good team, trainers with a strong force of will and personality actually empower their pokemon to perform above and beyond what they'd do alone. If you took say, Cynthia's Garchomp and gave it to an average trainer, it would underperform even if given exactly the same instructions in a battle, because Cynthia has a stronger will than the average bear. The same goes for most significant trainers, including the MC's of the games.

>Human on human violence is incredibly rare in the pokemon girl
Not sure how that typo slipped through, possibly Freudian. Should read "In the pokemon world"
>>28109181
Here's my theory:
Pokemon are a rapidly expanding alien species that have out competed normal animals and perhaps even absorbed some of their genetic code to adapt. Prehistoric Pokemon are small in number because animals like carnivorous dinosaurs and large mammals were competitive enough to not get wiped out.
At the time of the first games a war has recently ended that has upset the ecosystem and allowed Pokemon to take over. This is further supported by references to regular animals like Elephants that slowly become less common as the series progresses.
Originally there were only 151 or so Pokemon to be seen in Kanto, in gen II the discovery of something as simple as eggs and reproduction is astounding. In the span of about 10 years previously unseen "Johto" Pokemon have shown up all over Kanto despite being geographically connected to begin with. This seems to support that the Pokemon were not simply discovered, but actually recently came into being.
The last bit of evidence is that egg groups confirm scientifically that despite massive differences in appearance, there are only a few distinct species of Pokemon. Even something like Wailord can breed with a variety of seemingly mammalian, reptilian, and avian mates.
Where did he get these starters from?
If you beat the elite 4 10 times and complete the Pokedex a new path opens up to the right of Pallet town. There you can catch all the starters, he probably got it from there.
probably some controller breeding facility, like all starters. They don't appear in the wild after all.

hey /vp/ ive been having trouble getting through white 2 i feel like i get burnt out around the 6th gym each time and idk why i think its cause i cant find a team to stick with
anyways i want you all to post your white 2/black 2 teams for suggestions
i used samurott, arcanine, crobat, stoutland, haxorus, and krookodile
I'm having the same problem but with White 1. The only Pokemon I know for sure that I want to use are Sawsbuck, maybe Emboar, and I might pick up Braviary when I reach it. Everything else I don't really know.
I'm at the 5th gym in Black 2 at the moment and am running a Serperior, Magmar and Tynamo, and looking to pick up a Frillish as soon as I can

Oh my god, Anon, you can’t just ask somemon why they’re white.
I liked when Pokemon were cool RPG monsters, not toylike blobs designed specifically to sell merch.
>>28108330
>toylike blobs designed specifically to sell merch.
They have literally been exactly that since the earliest days of the series.

ITT we pick our favourite gym leader/elite four of any type and use http://pokecharms.com/trainer-card-maker/ to make a new team for them.
