Pokémon General Thread

I like Tornadus the best. Go my Mighty Fujin!

also correction talonflame is not a bird on fire

he can set himself on fire but he is not, by default, on fire

Yeah if you want a bird on fire you should go for Moltres

Tornadus uses priority Tailwind, right? That's not much of a niche but it is a niche.

You know whow else gets priority Tailwind? Talonflame, the bravest of Brave Birds.

why would you rub tailwin

It's a thing in Doubles, plus Band runs it sometimes due to the dead moveslot.

I can't think of a cooler cry in pokemon than this.

Pryce uses a Piloswine normally, but in rematches with him in HGSS, as well as the PWT, it's Mamoswine. And he's lower-levelled than Jasmine because you can fight him before Chuck.

A lot of Johto's level scaling issues would have been fixed if they didn't give you a choice after Ecruteak to go west or east.

No. This is the best Pokemon cry. There is no argument, it just is.

Called that one before I even clicked the link.

ahem

Registeel doesn't say its name! What a load of crock!

Volcarona sounds like a futuristic laser cannon.

Kricketune sounds like that sound that you make when you move your fingers up and down over your lips.

For the games it's Kricketune, for the anime it's the Regis.

Your point?

also monhonmon soon (for real this time)

My point is that there is an argument to be made.

No, Kricketune is still the best. Volcarona is up there though.

this is the best cry

anyway next monhon: The Tigrex

space reserved

Monster: Tigrex

Type: Dragon/Flying

BST: 550

Abilities: Rock Head, Reckless, Strong Lungs (boosts the power and potency of sound-based moves)

HP: 80

Attack: 140

Defense: 50

Special Attack: 120

Special Defense: 50

Speed: 110

Notable moves: Double Edge, Roar, Hyper Voice, Bounce, Boomburst, Dragon Tail, Power Whip, Rock Slide, Snarl, Crunch, Fly, Rock Climb (if you couldnt tell Tigrex is a versatile fucking dinosaur)

also put in Most Other Recoil Moves and Most Other Biting Moves

Brute fucking force is what Tigrex is all about. You will not last long with these things, but thankfully, Tigrex is a frail creature all things considering. Reckless can be used to boost Tigrex's power even further through the roof, while Rock Head can let it live without killing itself retarderly. For those who want to experiment with a special Tigrex, Strong Lungs exists for those (whether its actually good is a diffferent question).

Of course this thing is gonna love its new 100+ stats because MEGA TIME

Tigrex-Mega

Ability: Speed Boost

BST: 650

HP: 80

Attack: 170

Defense: 100

Special Attack: 150

Special Defense: 100

Speed: 50

as you can tell i tossed out balance long ago

since speed is calculated before mega, this means that Tigrex can essentially smash other 110s while being able to out-bulk them, then have speed boost proc to patch up its now abysmal speed

of course now you dont have an attack boosting or "prevent self destruction" ability so you gotta be careful i gueeeess

kricketune is superior to all

kricketune's stats are the worst thing about pokemon and i hate gamefreak for making it bad

kricketune's stats are okay

Its highest is a Base 85 Attack. You call that okay?

Yes. It carried my team in Platinum and demolished the Battle Frontier and I have fun using it.

it could have been so much more..
