I have waited for a completed pokemon chess theme for so long, and now its here.
>>28011530
Okay so if Palossand is the Rook, and Bisharp is the Bishop, what are the rest? The Nidos for King and Queen?
>>28011577
yes
and pawniard for pawns
>there are people on this board right now
>that unironically thinks this is what a bishop looks like
there are many king and queen theme pokemon, venequeen, nidos, gen 6 fossil (the t rex has a fucking crown)...
Mudsdale for Knight
But what about the knight? There are literally no horse pokemon.
>>28011661
>zebstrika
retard
But we already had Bastiodon, anon.
>>28011631
Bisharp is a combination of bishop (a piece in chess) and sharp (describing its metal blades).
>>28011761
Tell me, did you honestly think didn't know that?
I'm mocking people that think English names are worth shit when it comes to origin.
>>28011793
Wow, I never thought his Japanese name was so different. Most Pokémons' English names are at least similar to Japanese ones in meaning, but Bisharp is completely different.
>>28011661
what about a litteral knight pokemon
>>28011724
But nobody cares about Bastiodon.
>>28011661
Rapid-Fucking-Ash
>>28012387
Meant to say Rapidash, in case someone thinks I'm talking about actually rapid fucking Ash.
>>28012422
I'd pay for that
>>28011631
You're telling me that this isn't literally what a bishop piece looks like?
>>28011682
He said horse Pokemon, not shit Pokemon.
>>28012422
>Psychic is weak to Dark
>Fairy is weak to Steel
>vespiquen resists poison/immune to ground
bottom side would have to rely on Gallade's Fighting and the rook's Ground moves to beat the Steel-heavy top team.
Top's king is weak to literally everything in bottom though; (Weak to fairy, water, fighting, and ground - Yes, I realize its actually neutral to Water and that Ralts is neutral to dark. Ignore this)
>>28012544
>implying bishops look like knights
>>28012544
No, it doesn't. Bisharp doesn't look anything like a Bishop.
>>28012644
are knights soppose to look like knights?
Not very chess. But I do like the sandcastles, my only problem is Pallosand's eyes, I wish they were more like Sandyghast's, or just bigger.
>>28012422
I get it, but Tyrantrum/Vespiqueen makes no sense.
Either do Vespiqueen/Beedrill, Aurourus/Tyrantrum, Mandibuzz/Braviary, something that's thematically linked.
Bee/Dinosaur makes no sense, I get that they are kings and queens but Jesus we have +700 of these to pick from a little sense would be nice. There are pokemon that are literal male/female or at least masculine/feminine counterparts of each other and you just picked the superficial "representatives"
>>28012422
>ralts is the girl version of bisharp
mind blown
>>28012777
Fine, ya big whiny baby.
>>28012728
bishops aren't frontline fighters, that much is certain
>>28012844
the top side looks full of steel types except for the king and queen, you could bother making it more themed
>>28012777
Queen/Random Wasp and Amargasaurus/King make just as little sense as Bee/Dinosaur, anon.
>>28012912
Eh...
>>28013041
that's really nice, I wonder how can you theme the bottom?
>>28011530
>Why you hate it?
Oh of course, here he comes, like a moth to a flame, the contrarian faggot. Nothing makes him hornier than immediately contradicting popular opinion with his fake and irrational tastes.
>OH I LOVE PALLOSSAND!
>WORMADAM IS MY POKEBRO!
>CHIMECHO IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE POKEMON!
>I OWN 1000 DOLLARS WORTH OF CASTFORM MERCH BECAUSE OF HOW AMAZING IT IS!
Said no one ever. Except for the piece of shit whose favorite part of a pokemon's design is how much of a special snowflake it makes him feel like due to how bad it is, and in an alternate universe where shitty designs were popular, the contrarian faggot would be first in line to crusade against the same shitty pokemon they claim to love.
You are the same person who claims that Sonic '06 is art. The same person who thinks Naruto's final arc was the best. The same person who claims that Batman V Superman is better than the Avengers.
This is the kind of drooling idiot that people see you as when you claim to like Palossand. Next time try and have some damn perspective.
>>28013101
How long did you spend writing that?Nice non-answer.
These are Pokemon Shuffle sprites/Icons/Buttons.
>>28013101
are you me anon?
I'm start thinking it's a matter of taste. Great people can't defent that shitpil'o'ssand.
>>28013130
Don't worry anon, it's a pasta.
>>28013101
Did you actually type all of that shit or is it just stale pasta?
Anyway, let me tell you something:
Fuck you. I like it.
>>28013101
>>I OWN 1000 DOLLARS WORTH OF CASTFORM MERCH
....
>He doesn't remember Shitstorm
Im sorry youre a newfag, you missed a great era of this board.
>>28013082
?
>>28013192
It's a pasta yeah. I'm not sure when it started, but I first saw it in an anti sandcastle thread yesterday I think.
>>28012807
>Ralts/Kirlia/Gardevoir: Psychic/Fairy
>Pawniard/Bisharp: Dark/Steel
>Gallade became a valiant Fighting-type knight to defend his kind from the Bisharp legions.
>>28013221
hypno should be the psychic bishops
>>28011946
>Most Pokémons' English names are at least similar to Japanese ones in meaning
no they really aren't
>>28012620
Anon... Tyrantrum isn't weak to water types.
>>28013101
>>28013163
>shitting on pokemon designs
A reminder to get a load of this and be grateful for what you have
>>28013538
The Gallade/Ralts is to match the Bisharp/Pawniards.
>>28012807
Well Ralts is a page boy, Kirlia a squire and Gardevoir a Paladin.
>>28013221

Bitch you posted some of the best Yo-Kai designs. If you're gonna shitpost unfunny old memes at least do it right, damn.
>>28013221
Rock vs Ground now?
My suggestions:
Rock:
King: Tyrantrum (or may be for Dragon team) or Aggron
Rooks: Probopass
Knights: Aggron if it's not the king
Pawns: Nosepass
Ground:
Rooks: Palossand
>>28014175
but hypno is better because they both diddle kids :^)
>>28014303
>>28014560
this one's really nice
>>28014560
Woah, I like it. Nice!
Next types?
>>28014647
would love to see some fire v electric
Needs Dragons vs Fairies
>>28014698
nah direct counters sound boring, maybe dragon v fighting or ghost or something
>>28011530
It's a fucking haunted sandcastle. Even if you are just fucking around like who the fuck thought this would be a good idea? Just imagining this motherfucker eating, breeding, fighting just seems like it's restricting and limiting itself by possessing a sandcastle.
>>28014683
Electric pawns are obviously Pikachu
>>28014736
fighting should be vs dark
becuase if i remember somewhere i heard in japanese fighting type is basically the "good guys" hero type
and dark is badguys
>>28014783
> Rooks are Crustle
10/10
>>28014647
Ghost and dark please
>>28011637
>venequeen
>>28014739
>it's another moron that thinks Pokemon are animals
>>28014810
Cofagrigus and Spiritomb for Rooks please
>>28012404
Awwww....
>>28014783
Bug side is perfect, but the Poison side is really weak.
>>28014783
Grass/Poison is cheating
>>28014852
>>28015307
this one is just right
>>28014683
>>28015483
thanks, looks amazing
>>28011631
Its original name is Kirikizan.
This thing has absolutely nothing to do with chess or bishops. It's just some shit the localization made up because black and white.
>>28015743
i think zangoose would work better than exploud
>>28014783
Decided to revisit this one.
>>28013101
100% agreed with you aside from the part where you turn into a faggot talking about dumb shit like sonic naruto and muh superheroes
some pokemon designs are shit and there's no denying it
>>28013153
Thank you
>>28011530
The only thing I don't like about it is the spinning shovel in its final evo
>>28013101
Saved
>>28012387
>Radi-Fucking-Dash
Water vs. Fire can just have male and female uproar and jellificent for king/queen
>>28013101
I have never watched Naruto.
I have never played Sonic 06
BvS was a trash fire.
But don't you ever shit talk Wormadam.
>>28017323
>Radi
>>28015702
It has its basis in Shogi, which the localization team decided to turn into Chess because lel Japanese Chess.
>>28015743
I feel Linoone would work better as a Bishop than Exploud
Also I know it's been done but Normal v Ghost would make more sense
>>28011661
>no horse pokemon
We've got 3 family lines
>>28018530
ponyta, zebstrika and the new nigger horse one right?
