*wants the fire gorilla*

I'm kind of surprised it's taken them this long to come up with some gear Pokemon, but I know what you mean about the "mind probing." It's so weird... first Nintendo probed my mind with the fire pig and now it's probed it with the ground crocodile.Fusion wrote:we have a gear Pokemon (Nintendo probed my mind again...)

Re: Pokemon Black and White
Zekrom has been revealed to be Dragon/Electric, as was leaked around his first appearance.
Reshiram has been revealed to be Dragon/Fire. Sorry Fluffy, but your prediction was invalid.
Zoroa is obtained by sending over the event Celebi from D/P/t/HG/SS, much like how Zoroark is obtained via sending over the legendary beasts. Zoroa is level 10, Zoroark is level 25.
So now we have two fire types and two electric types revealed. I guess Nintendo finally saw how many water types they added over the last few years and noticed the glaring problem in D/P (Two Fire families during the main story, one was a starter, the other was Rapidash. Their fire E4 member had two fire types and a normal, steel, and ghost).
And yeah, Era. I remember making a chameleon Pokemon pre-2001, and for my original Black and White (2003) ideas had a legendary that was basically Reshiram with Black armor.

Re: Pokemon Black and White
Grr. I could see Zekrom being Dragon/Electric, but I still think Reshiram should've been Dragon/Ice. Makes more sense IMO. and I'm glad to see that the main legendaries have more than friggin' pressure again. That is the most annoying ability EVER.Fusion wrote:Zekrom has been revealed to be Dragon/Electric, as was leaked around his first appearance.

Re: Pokemon Black and White
Zoroa and Zoroark are confirmed to be event-only Pokemon. To get Zoroa, the event Celebi is required, and to get Zoroark only one of the shiny event legendary beasts are required.
Of course, whether or not they can be bred has yet to have been revealed. Hopefully they can, because at the time of my release date America won't have the events, but if they can be bred I can try to get one via wi-fi. You guys shouldn't worry unless you don't go out and get them.

Re: Pokemon Black and White
Not advocating it, but most people cheat their event Pokemon anyway.

Re: Pokemon Black and White
Not most. I think most people don't even know how to cheat them. Of course, before DPt, sure, most people that HAD event Pokemon cheated them, but now it's probably less than half have cheated them due to almost all of the events being over Nintendo WFC.

Re: Pokemon Black and White
That and the fact that you basically need Pokesav because the new events look for certain flags (such as Classic Ribbon, Fateful Encounter, or Cherish Ball) and those can not be hacked by normal AR means. Unless, of course, you want to write out a 50+ line code.

Re: Pokemon Black and White
Okay, awesomeness. There are triple battles in Black and White now, and the new pokemon they've shown today all look pretty friggin' sweet.

Re: Pokemon Black and White
Oh look, more battle options I'll never use.
I honestly think single battles are the best way to play and they never should have added doubles.
Oh, and that makes another rumor from March true. The first was Professor Aragi. So if the others are also true, we will be choosing our own destiny and there are no gym battles.
I have to wait until the concept art to judge the new Pokemon, because right now the Pokemon are in a jumbled mess in that triple battle.

Re: Pokemon Black and White
Some of those new Pokemon look pretty crazy, and not necessarily in a good way. The "mantis" looks like something out of Yu-Gi-Oh and the "sarcophagus" seems like a lame idea for a Pokemon. I liked the "mole" Pokemon, though.

Re: Pokemon Black and White
I think Black and White has the potential to be good, but they might just go a little too over the top. Triple battles? Was that neccessary? And the Pokemon look kind of weird now.

Mav is right though, in fact, that works not just for Pokemon, but for any game at all (minus the last sentence). It just comes down to "if you don't like it, don't use it".

Re: Pokemon Black and White
So 4 new pokemon were more or less revealed in the beta art for the anime.
Click! Scroll down to just above Zorua. The weird fluffy ball bat thing is a little odd, but we do need a new bat, but the three directly above Zorua interest me the most, as two of the three appear to be second stage starters, and I must say that I am impressed. The pics are low-detail, and they're also beta pics so they may or may not be finalized.
EDIT: So according to Serebii, someone leaked some news about B+W that contained the names of some new pokemon and also that in the games, there will actually be a difference on the map; in one version, there will be Black City, but in the other version, there'll be White Fortress instead.

Seeing as most of it was wi-fi and Pokemon we already knew about I just didn't bother.
