Posted July 20, 2013 I enjoyed the Nincada line (Shedinja will forever hold a place in my heart... he kicks butt ) and would love to see another cicada line at some point. Or an eel... or another weird fishy of some sort. Or a lizard. Something other than canine/feline stuffs! Even snakes birds and snakes. Or another 'lochness monster' type pokemon (lapras anyone?) even more pokemon like Puddings or Custards... But I look forward to these games nonetheless. I now just wish they came sooner Share this post Link to post
Posted July 20, 2013 I don't think they should stop canine/feline stuff, but they should put in some other stuff too. I think they should do something more like a weasel. I have always felt like Weavile are part cat. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 20, 2013 Heh, funny thing with me and pixalated games... Red, Green, Blue, Silver, Gold, Crystal and Yellow.... I'm fine with being 'pixalted' because I'm used to it. Completely. When it comes to Black and White, and Black2/White 2... I'm... not why? I'm not used to them being pixalated. I'm not used to anything being on a giant screen either (I got the 3ds XL as a gift from a friend for letting them barrow Black2) so that might be why everything's all pixalated.... the new battle style seems awesome! I can't wait to see everything be all like "Haaha! I did this and look how awesome it was!!" "That was just tailwhip..." "But it was still awesome!!" If you're stretching the screen, of course it's going to look bad... If you're playing on a 3DSXL you're forcing the screen to display at proportions that it isn't fitted to. The resolution between the 3DS and the 3DSXL is off, so even if the screens were the same size DS games would still look rather poor. You need to hold Select or Start when you turn on the game... the screens will be the size they would've been on the DS and you won't have that problem. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 20, 2013 Pixelated? I have Fire Emblem for that. I enjpy the feline/canines. If they made more bugs they would just be weak .-. (Nincada line is actually a pretty good bug line) Fishies would be awesome! I'd like an Urchin and more flowers though. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) If they made more bugs they would just be weak .-. You can't guarantee that, we DID get Accelgor, Escavalier, and Volcarona last gen (and Durant, Scolipede, Leavanny, and Gavantula to a slightly lesser extent.) I don't think I even need to mention Heracross, Scyther, and Scizor. :V Edited July 20, 2013 by Pika_Oi Share this post Link to post

Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) Well, even if they are "weak", stats aren't everything to everybody :L All the ones I listed have base stats and movepools good enough to be relatively into usable (maybe not OU for most of them but ughh tiers) territory (and there are more Bug-Types than the ones I listed that fall into that territory as well), but some people use Pokemon strictly for design preferences (myself included at times) anyways :B Edited July 20, 2013 by Pika_Oi Share this post Link to post
Posted July 20, 2013 My initial team when I start a new game usually consists of Pokemon I think look good. |D Later on, I'll look at stats. But in most cases, for me, looks > stats...because I'm not a competitive player. I'd like to get into competitive Pokemon stuff at some point. Though I'm probably never going to be entering any contests or anything any time soon. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 Well, even if they are "weak", stats aren't everything to everybody :L Seriously. I pick my Pokemon based on how much I like 'em and nothing more. Hence why my team is normally full of Bug and Poison types. I'd rather have a super-weak Pokemon that is creative and fun than a sure-fire winner that is bland as can be. Share this post Link to post

Now see, I didn't know that when I played it thank you. I like bug types. I have an Ariados who kicks butt alone. A Yanmega who does the same. My Shedinja is pretty buttwhacks and well, I like bugs anyway You just gotta know how to use them. Personally, I'd be quite amused if they ever allow us to have a bug starter.... I also think X and Y should bring in some more bug to bug us. They can be useful and they're pretty entertaining to figure out what they're based off of sometimes. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) Personally, I'd be quite amused if they ever allow us to have a bug starter.... I don't understand why they haven't had a bug starter yet, honestly. Pokemon itself was inspired by bug-catching after all :N Also my Durant pretty much crushes everything in its path and has done more sweeping than my Tyranitar every time I've used it to battle people c: Edited July 21, 2013 by Pika_Oi Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 Playing the games since they started will do that to you. I've been playing since Red/Blue, and I love the fact that we're getting a new type. That aside, I don't want them to stop with the canine/feline ones. What I DO want to see, though, is more variety. Let's get a fierce dark-type dire wolf! Or a jaguar or a cheetah! Ooooh! I WANT A MANNED WOLF POKEMON! Or a jackal or a lynx or something! There's still a lot of possibilities. I just want more cool-looking Pokemon, though, lol. Well, cool according to my tastes. I base my teams almost entirely on design. I do use typing as well, but I specifically look for a design I like when it comes to whatever type I'm using. If I need X type, then I'll try to find a Pokemon with that type that I love the look of. I don't usually bother with stats since I don't play competitively and I'm generally good enough with type-based combat to avoid NEEDING to look too closely at stats. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) Ugh no please no more edgy dark wolves We already have Mightyena I know it's supposed to be a hyena but it's pretty clearly a wolf An edgy dark wolf (I am biased against wolves (especially of the edgy dark variety) due to many bad experiences with wolfaboos and for that I apologize) Edited July 21, 2013 by Pika_Oi Share this post Link to post

But man now I just really super want to see a maned wolf Pokemon, those things are just so cool. (Despite the name, they're not actually wolves). Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 If we're talking variety and it HAS to be wolves a scrawny Ground-Type Arabian Wolf would be more interesting than another Dark-Type wolf :L Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 If we're talking variety and it HAS to be wolves a scrawny Ground-Type Arabian Wolf would be more interesting than another Dark-Type wolf :L Ohhh, that would be really cool. I just like the dark type. But I'd like to see a rock-type wolf somehow, that would be cool. Or a grass-type wolf with flowers all in it and stuff. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 If we're talking variety and it HAS to be wolves a scrawny Ground-Type Arabian Wolf would be more interesting than another Dark-Type wolf :L Oh man oh man what if you get an additional pokemon based off of common parasites that mammals get if you have an extra pokeball. and it can't be separated from the scrawny wolf thing. but you can release it and such. oh jeez now i'm just thinking of parasite pokemon and i'm all excited o _o we need more slowbros/slowkings plz Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) Oh gosh That would be fantastic o: I would actually catch a wolf Pokemon if it came with a parasite Pokemon Edited July 21, 2013 by Pika_Oi Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 Mightyena = not hyena by looks. Wolfy all the way. Anywho... I personally think we could do with not-wolf based stuff. There's plenty of other canines out in the world that aren't wolves, yet are perfectly able to be based off as a pokemon. But I still think we have enough of them... they're numbers could take over the world if they wanted. Parasite pokemon though... those I wouldn't mind to see. But maybe the types of parasites that don't really kill stuff.... having a pokemon die at some point would be horrible... *still wants a bug starter* Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 On the subject, isn't Parasect essentially a zombie under control of the mushroom growing on its back? ouo; Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) On parasite Pokémon, we already have one based on a paricitic Fungus. Um, no not that, This: What a cute little Zombie Cicada! Edit: Ninja'd Edited July 21, 2013 by sailing101 Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 yes yes, the fungus growing paras and parasect. I was thinking more along the lines of those different parasites. Not fungus on little bugs nice picture though. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 21, 2013 Never used bug types :/ NEVER. I basically hate most of them. Especially Durant. I mind Galvantula, too. If bug type was taken out of the game I'd be okay, because most of them freak me out. Share this post Link to post

My Shedinja is pretty buttwhacks and well, I like bugs anyway You just gotta know how to use them. I like bug types a lot, but I feel they could use more variety and better stats, quite a lot of them are bug/flying types and bug/poison types, maybe another bug/water type, but this time let it stay that way when it evolves.

Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) I really liked fifth gen's Bug-Type variety, we did get another Bug/Poison line (and one more pure Bug line), but we also got Bug/Grass, Bug/Fire, Bug/Rock, Bug/Electric, and 3x Bug/Steel. I hope Vivillion's line, cute as it is, doesn't mean we won't get that kind of variety this gen too. :L Never used bug types :/ NEVER. I basically hate most of them. Especially Durant. I mind Galvantula, too. If bug type was taken out of the game I'd be okay, because most of them freak me out. Well, I wouldn't be okay. I like all the Bug-Types. :c Edited July 21, 2013 by Pika_Oi Share this post Link to post
