Why do you hate Charmander, or is it just Charizard?
>>25716113
I love this little guy, I got him in PSMD. I'm fine with CharizardIt's just that Typhlosion and Blaziken are better in every way
>>25716113
People just hate Charizard. And it's only because it's popular and they think they are cool and edgy for going against the grain
I'm going to a Pokemon themed trivia night at a bar this weekend. We need a team name. Any ideas? ALL ideas welcome.

Pokeballers
Hi, /vp/, it's been a long time since I've posted this kind of thing, but with my "new" model complete I wanted to share it with you all to get some feedback or just show what I do.
I'm a big LEGO fan, and more of a /toy/ soldier in general, but I'm also a big fan of Pokémon, obviously, and the only logical thing to do would be to recreate some of my favourite.
Which is what I've done. Here is my Marowak, which is actually the third model I've designed in this style, and the second to be made in real pieces.
>>25714939
Wait, you made this? Like you made the Legos your self or...? How is this possible.
My goal is to articulate them as much as possible, but since marowak is pretty small, it's not as articulated as I would have liked.
>>25714939
How'd you do that thing with the helmets for the ends of the bone? That can't be regulation.
when will he get an evolution?
VER EVER
there finished it.

RParental Bond Mega Girafarig when?
>>25713767
no pokemon aside from qwilfish has more potential than this little guy.
How isn't Meowth Giovanni's most valuable commodity? He is literally a Pokemon interpretor.
Giovanni only cared about $$$$$$$$

>Ask belligerent Pokemon what it wants to join him
>Meowth communicates
>Giovanni instantly knows how to get every ultra powerful legendary Pokemon to join him
>>25713022
Giovanni doesn't care about Meowth.
If we took the crust off Crustle, would it die?
It would be extremely shell-smashing.

For NU.
Unpopular Opinion: I thought the ice cream pokemon line was really cute and not that bad
Ditto.
I think they get most of their hate from how for years, everyone who fell out of pokemon after gen 1 would joke about new pokemon designs, and fake pokemon based on food and inanimate objects were popular jokes/strawmen.
Then Gamefreak, after so many years, makes a pokemon thats [an icicle with regular snow on top with a friendly face to lure prey in] and its like a great prophecy has been fulfilled for the non-fans.
It seems like most people who object to it just don't think it has a place in the Pokemon roster. The design itself isn't bad, it's just a bit comical, which can be an issue when it shows up in places like N's showdown of destiny roster at the end of B/W.
It also doesn't help that the start of gen 5 wanted you to only have access to new Pokemon. That's not the way you want to go if you want your fans to accept new designs in with the existing cast. That exacerbated the feeling of them being alien and weird to a lot of people.
Vanilluxe just got singled out because it was one of the more "out there" additions.

The only thing I don't like is the Shiny.
They should've made the "cone" light beige for the shiny at least.

Replayed B/W recently. God damn they're so different from other Pokemon games but I love it.
Alright I just got into Pokemon last week, just finished White 2 ( fucking amazing I might add ) from a 5 year break, what's this pokebank shit and why is everyone telling my the new gen is garbage?
>>25718601
The creators REALLY fucked up this generation's story. Shitty and bland characters, foreshadowing leading to nowhere, cockteasing us with several things we've desired etc. Gen 6 is effectively the first gen where the primary games lack a third version whatsoever, kind of the opposite situation of BW and B2W2. Apart from that, stuff's pretty ok.
>>25718601
Because it is garbage, anon
>>25718601
>Alright I just got into Pokemon last week, just finished White 2 ( fucking amazing I might add )
Felt the same way. I think most people who start BW2 after a long break tend to enjoy it rather than the fans that never took a break who I think tend to enjoy HG/SS more.
Gen 6 went fuck all with the EXP curve and control. There are various unpredictable factors that give you extra EXP and you normally tend to end up way higher level than what you're facing against.
Things you can do to minimize it:
>Switch less often (Each pokemon that were in battle get 100% of the EXP instead of it splitting amongst them)
>Turn off EXP Share (It's a key item which gives all pokemon that haven't participated in battle 50% of the EXP the defeated pokemon gives)
>Do not play pokemon amie with your main party
There are aspects of XY that I really enjoyed that weren't in previous games though and I think that alone makes it worth a try. It took some steps back and a few forward in another direction.

>Caring about fugs nature
It doesn`t even need a good nature, its fug.
>>25718136
You can check your stats in the Deoxys battle, retard
Even if you couldn't, you can just kill Deoxys and re-catch it later.

>critical hit from a weak move KOs it somehow when it had +6 def and sp. def
crits ignore defense buffs you casual
