Pokémon Community Thread 2: "This is the Real Power of Johto..."

Watch Da Birdie

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Didn't they say that Diamond and Pearl would bring the total over 400 Pokémon?

We ended up with 493.

That's not that big of a deal though, Gen III brought it up to 386, so breaking 400 was obviously going to happen. And Sinnoh had a very small amount of Pokemon too, only 107.

I'd say Gen VI will probably fall between Gen IV and Gen III's amount, around 115-120.
 
I nominate UltimateIke if it's up for grabs.

I second this notion.

1. All Arcanine, all the time!
2. All posts must include at least three pieces of Arcanine-related fan art.

  • Why is Arcanine so cool?
  • What moveset is your favorite?
  • Shouldn't Arcanine learn Dragon Dance in Gen VI?
  • Should Arcanine get its own anime?
  • What is your personal ranking of the Arcanine sprites?

Train an Arcanine every generation. Priority one.

Spin-offs? If Arcanine is in it, that shit's mainline.

Arcanine usually comes around just to fuck somebody up. True story.

So Arcanine is based off the Shisa and all, a legendary creature.

How'd you feel if he becomes Fire/Fairy in Gen VI?
 
Oh right, "rumors".

The Inkay evo method sounds totally BS, lol. Though you know there's gonna be some gimmick poke somewhere in the dex. Probably will utilize some functionality of the 3DS somehow. Gyroscope is a possibility, but I don't think it'll happen.

Okay, so I just beat Emerald, and something in the game got me thinking... Bill created the box system in Yellow, and he shows up a year later in Crystal. Jasmine in Crystal shows up in Platinum meaning that game takes place roughly at the same time as Yellow/Crystal. Cynthia, the champ in Platinum shows up in White/White2 meaning that game takes place a bit after Platinum.

Emerald though- in Emerald, the Box system owner gets an email from her proud grandfather "Bill". So... gen 3 takes place decades after all the other gens but has only like 1/2 of the pokemon? Weird.

Gen 3 takes place at the same time as Gen 1.

Actually, have a picture:

So they're two different Bills? Not saying you're wrong, but it's a bit confusing.

edit, actually I think I get it now.

Well, as far as I remember, Bill never calls Lanette his granddaughter, he just praises her for upgrading his system. In the Japanese version, it is said they co-developed it. So, as you see, they aren't taking place at different times.

Random question: I suddenly want to play a Pokemon game. The last one I played was White and I stopped before the Elite Four and now I have no idea where my cart is but I'd rather start fresh anyways. Should I buy BW2 or just wait it out until XY?

Pretty sure Andrex doesn't even post in here anymore.

Yeah, not as much as I used to. Just have been kinda cold on Pokemon lately, I only put the bare minimum into White 2. But I am looking forward to XY reigniting my interest. Unfortunately I'm kinda on a blackout for them too. :p

I already added you Aggro!

And well, we did get one thing confirmed in Smash - actual diagonal movement!

I would probably just wait for X and Y. Only a few months to go!

Doesn't look like I can play a lot of Black/Black2 this summer :( the research position I got is going to consume my soul.

I see, thanks. I guess that would be the smartest thing to do since I'm not sure what BW did that made me so uninterested towards the end and wouldn't be surprised if the same thing happened to me in BW2.
 
Hmm... after checking the friend lists some hours later, what's left is SalsaShark and kittens. Hmm... still provisionally registered.

Arcanine is fluffy and cool!
