Everything.

Fight Alder,

Spoiler

Cynthia, talk to N and catch Zekrom then fight him each season,

battle your rival, go to all of the towns and routes that were blocked off before you beat the Elite Four, beat the Elite Four again, Black Tower, catch lots of Pokemons, do the World Tournament.

Blegh, I just wish there was more to do. I've already beaten the Elite Four again on Challenge mode. My pokemon aren't even in the high 70's. Iunno, just wanted more to do. I hope they add a lot of Post-Game stuff in X/Y and hopefully rebattling trainers again.

GT's next Timeline should be on Pokemon.
Nobody cares about it, so surely the discussion has to start!

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Gen V has the unique distinction of introducing both my most favourite Pokémon in the 'Dex and my least favourite.

Swoobat is one of them. Guess which.

Gen 4 for me. I'll give anyone two guesses for each.

 

[backlot]

Gen 4 for me. I'll give anyone two guesses for each.

Your favorite is Stunky, right?

 

[UltimateIke]

Gen 4 for me. I'll give anyone two guesses for each.

Togekiss and Froslass.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Togekiss and Froslass.

Damn, you know me too well.

 

[MikeMyers]

I like Froslass design, my personal vote for worst Gen IV design is Empoleon. His head looks like he has golden fork tines growing out of it.

You lucky goose. I got my Blu-Ray copy signed by him at Fan Expo last year, but it cost me some major moolah

What was it like? Did he comment on it at all or just sit in silence?

AWESOME, he also showed Prince of Darkness and In the Mouth of Madness.

Also, my name is actually from Michael Myers of Halloween, although I'm not too big on Halloween anymore, I was planning on covering that when I guest starred on Aggro's show.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I want Pokemon-themed Star Trek starring Pokemon!

 

[Beyonce Beytwice]

I like Froslass design, my personal vote for worst Gen IV design is Empoleon.

Nah, everything pales in comparison to Probopass. Just hideous.

 

[MikeMyers]

Nah, everything pales in comparison to Probopass. Just hideous.

Yeah, Probospass is pretty ugly too, no offense to anyone who likes it.

 

[Macka]

Bidoof is clearly the worst Gen IV design. It's so plain.

 

[ShmeebAlina]

Bidoof is literally the only Pokemon I have no care for whatsoever. Though Budew is pretty lame too. The rest all have their good points.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Mystery Dungeon 2 made me love Bidoof.

examples of great evolutions for old pokemon:

examples of hideous evolutions for older pokemon:

cant believe they made such a fucked up evolution for rhydon when its probably one of the most important pokemon ever made

 

[Beyonce Beytwice]

Yanmega is my favorite gen IV evolution to an older mon. It's so badass.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Wait, how is Tangrowth bad?

 

[Neo Child]

Yanmega is my favorite gen IV evolution to an older mon. It's so badass.

was going to post that as well as magmortar.

lickilicky is also awful.

problem is alot of gen iv & v pokemon have weird proportions for their bodys. maybe its the shading in the sprites but look how weird the proportions of the bodies are. its like it would be impossible for them to stand up.

Wait, how is Tangrowth bad?

because its noodles and would be the king of bitch slapping

Glaceon is so cute <3

Also I was really depressed when I saw Rhydon's new evolution. I didn't even find out about it til earlier this year (since I never bothered training a Rhyhorn/Don since one of the earlier gens). I love Rhyhorn/don but hate his new evolution.

 

[Neo Child]

glaceon, sylveon & vaporean are my favourite eevee evolutions.

i know this is an unpopular opinion but i loathe umbreon and espeon so bad. maybe its because i assosciate pokemon colloseum with them and that game was a bit crap.

 

[ShmeebAlina]

Not a big fan of Tangrowth either but Rhyperior's alright. Rhydon's definitely cooler though. My favourite of the Gen IV evos are Gallade and Yanmega.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Rhyperior makes sense though - Protector item.

Also Lickylicky is "less overdesigned" compared to Lickitung and has a gourmet design which befits its theme.

because its noodles and would be the king of bitch slapping

But that's what an evolution of Tangela would look like if you think about it. I particularly don't see anything offending about it.

I don't think Tangrowth is that bad, but Rhyperior is awful.

Gallade, Gliscor and Yanmega - best new guys

i guess so, tangela is such a random pokemon.

i like how tangrowths pose looks like he's slappin dat ass

[Cute Dragon Here]

Glaceon was probably the best evo that came out of gen IV for me.

 

[entremet]

Didn't like the Gen IV evos. I preferred Gen V's approach, with all new Pokes and not creating any evos or pre evos.

 

[Box of Bunnies]

Gen IV gave us Pimpcrow and that's all that really matters.

Except there are clearly some evos to older mons in gen V that they now just made standalone mons, which is far lamer. Like Alomomola and Emolga.

 

[Snacks the sober sea lion]

Gliscor is an awesome evolution. Doesn't look nearly as goofy as Gligar, better color scheme, actually useful.

Alomomola not being an evolution to Luvdisc is ridiculous. What would Emolga have evolved from? Doesn't really stand out as an evolution, just the obligatory trend of "cute" Electric types. Also, Pikachu is so played out. It wasn't even the most appealing Pokemon of Gen 1.

 

[Beyonce Beytwice]

From Pachirisu of course.

 

[Snacks the sober sea lion]

Pachirisu is blue. Also utterly forgettable.

 

[backlot]

I really liked the gen 4 evos. I hope gen 6 has a bunch too.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Man anyone else pumped two weeks from now?

 

[DaBoss]

Of course, can't wait to see/read about what the heck they will do for 1.5 hours lol.

Well, there always been an Pikachu clone in most Pokemon games. So GF was just following that trend.

Gen I-Pikachu
Gen II-Marill; Pichu
Gen III-Minun, Plusle
Gen-iV Pachirusu
Gen V-Emolga

Alomomola is a sunfish pokemon; but marine pokes are just so similar honestly.

Too bad they couldn't have all been as good as Marill.

 

[ash_ag]

Too bad they couldn't have all been as good as Marill.

I feel like Marill / Azumarill is kind of a Gen II counterpart to Riolu / Lucario and Zorua / Zoroark (and Pikachu / Raichu too, I suppose). A Pokémon given special focus in spite of not being (exactly) a starter. Too bad there's no Gen III counterpart to that.

 

[zroid]

Man anyone else pumped two weeks from now?

It didn't really sink in just how excited I am for XY until they announced this 90 minute thing, and suddenly I was anticipating it even more than any of the press conferences or the E3 Nintendo Direct. *-*

 

[Boss Doggie]

Yeah Azumarill with Huge Power is so awesome. Aqua Jet/Waterfall to rival Gyarados.

 

[harmonize]

Electivire truly puts Magmortar to shame

Please, Magmortar is the best fourth gen fire-type outside of the starter's evo line and Heatran.

 

[dakkumauji]

Stiff competition there

 

[Beyonce Beytwice]

Please, Magmortar is the best fourth gen fire-type outside of the starter's evo line and Heatran.

You just named all gen IV Fire Pokemon except Heat Rotom. So you might as well say it is the second-worst.

Apparently Conquest sequel is hinted?
