Post by plasmoidmonkey »

First off, if you do not like the Pokemon series of games, leave this topic. There's nothing for you here. sorry. If you do: great news.

Diamond and Pearl Versions come out April 22 for Nintendo DS!

That means over seventy new Pokemon and wifi battles plus more! :D :P
See this link for more info: http://www.serebii.net

Oh, I hope I'm not the only fan around here...

I used to love the Pokemon games. I stopped buying them after Ruby and Saphire (sp). Let's see... Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal, Ruby, Saphire (sp), and Pokemon Stadium 2 for N64. I think they're just going a little too far.

@Darth_Z13 I wasn't listing all the games. I was listing the ones I have. There's a hellalotta Pokemon games. There's a Black, a Green, a lot of unreleased in America ones that can only be bought in US by buying ir straight from Japan. (so i've heard from various rumours). I also forgot to add to my list: Hey You Pikachu! The microphone one. And Pokemon have been in the SSB series. Those little monsters are everywhere.

I have both Diamond and Pearl now.

Huzzah for importing :p

And to the "OMGz pogeymon is ghey!1!11eleven" people out there, think about the maturity of yourselves before you critisize others' :wink:

I look forward to battling a few of you over Wi-Fi, not to say I will have a 6 month advantage over you :roll:

Edit: And to prove I have the game...

I'm still frustated that Nintendo/Game Freak has failed to add some more Pokemon types. Where is LIGHT pokemon since they have mentioned DARK pokemon? Also, would it have been possible if PLASMA poekmon existed since certain types have plasma characteristics??

As my saying, dark and intervines with light and vice-versa.

I'll later post my creative ideas to balance gameplay.....

One more thing

Can Venusaur learn these moves??

Earthquake, Flamethrower, Crunch, Sludge Bomb, Dig, Dragon Claw, Bite?

Psychic is considered to be Light, Plasma will never happen, Venasaur moveset up above, and I strongly suggest that you use Sceptile instead

That...could prove a disadvantage.

Sceptile may have slightly stronger attacks and speed but lacks special attack and HP than Venusaur. Also Sceptile, like Charizard, was given too much moves from a variety of types. How the [Inka Kola] can Sceptile learn Dragon Claw but not Venusaur? Technically speaking Venusaur is a dinosaur/seed/dragon.

Also, I have to strongly disagree with you there about LIGHT and PHYSHIC pokemon being the same. Explain to me why DARK pokemon are not damaged to PSYCHIC attacks? If you want to see some accurate LIGHT/DARK element made from Nintendo, it's Metroid Prime 2.

Here's my idea to this problem if you allow to speak my thoughts.

What are the advantages to LIGHT pokemon??

-They can deal more damage (2x) towards WATER (too many of these creatures lately and only have two weaknesses), ICE (melts them), DARK, GHOST (they hate light), and FLYING (remember Icarus myth?)

-They are immune to LIGHT effects. Similiar to how POISON are immunue to POISON GAS. :P

What Pokemon types can't LIGHT pokemon hurt as well?

- GRASS (they have too many weaknesses and deserve to be advanced..FIRE burns GRASS not LIGHT)
- ELECTRIC (reminds me of a light bulb)
- LIGHT (similar to how DARK can't DARK pokemon as well)
- FIRE
-GROUND
-POISON (they're immune to all LIGHT attacks! DARK pokemon are immune to PSYCHIC attacks)

What Pokemon types can greatly hurt LIGHT pokemon? (Meaning what are their weaknesses?)

- GRASS (as said before they need to be advanced more)
- DARK (opposite natural force)
- POISON (before then they could only severely damage GRASS pokemon...they deserve an advantage...think of this like the global pollution)
-ROCK (let's say in cave you block and entrance to outside...what happens? NO LIGHT!)


I'll later post some imaginative LIGHT pokemon and LIGHT moves...

Nope, 4kids was recently kicked off of the project to be replaced by...a cheaper version of 4kids, not as many paint edits, not as many good voice actors. :P

I'm not a fan of the show anyway, I like the games.

Just a sample of the music
