Seeing some of the re-interpretations of older Pokemon concepts is...strange, as if I was in some sort of Bizarro Universe (who renamed that trope?) or something. The new Mole Pokemon that, unlike Diglett, has a mouth and lower body. The Zubat replacement that is freaking adorable. Ghost-type Pokemon that are rumored in-game to be former humans, and one species that eats souls. Also, that weird Psychic/Flying Native American bird spirit.

Ulgamoth is FUCKTASTICALLY AWESOME.

Sazandora, Rankurusu, Wargle, and Ulgamoth are shoo-ins for my team.

[up]I agree, Ranculus is a nice bulky Psychic type. Sazandora is a nice special attacker, and so is Ulgamoth. I don't agree with Wargle though.

I haven't really decided on an in-game team, past my starter (Tepig) and Doryuuzu. Rankurusu is definitely going on my 3v3 Singles Trick Room team, though. And I need to build a Rain stall team.

5th gen is going to be awesome. :D

I'm definitely going to try to get Baibanira on my Isshu team, though I haven't decided whether I'm going with Waruvile or Doryuzu. I'm certainly going to try to get Ulgamoth.

[up][up]Get Doryuzu. Waruvial has too many weaknesses.

Same way we handle animals.

But we don't have towns run by animal-owners gyms and an entire league based around fighting animals, do we?

As for everyone in the Pokemon world looking like idiots obsessed with superpowered creatures, that's a element that's been around since day one thanks to 'mons being serious business in-universe.

That was when there were 150 of them known and they interested humans. Now they've become a bigger population and I'm wondering why they aren't just left alone. just bugs me

@3: Huh?

Their pokedex entries says all. I know that happens every generation, but this one's gotta be some sort of Nightmare Fuel record breaker for Pokemon.

[up]The first game's entries talk about blowing up Golems with dynamite, cutting off Raticate's whiskers, and shoving Grimers into cracks.

Denchura, Sazandora, Shinpora, Baibanira, Kojondo, and some as-of-yet undetermined physical attacker is going to be my team.

I'm interested in Ulgamoth (which I'd rename GIRUGAMOTH), but learning a signature move at level 100 is kind of a turn-off.

They upped the need for level grinding in those games. Fortunately you get a Lucky Egg in the storyline.

[up][up] I showed my best friend Ulgamoth and he basically said, "What the fuck is that?"

Blastoise, done.

^^ It needs to be Part flying since gamera can be pretty much a flying type.

And Maybe a Gyaos expy as well.

Either Blastoise or that Turtle Fossil can do, right?
