I just started with the game and found a sprite error in the beginning on the cruise ship: You can walk ON the rail in the red marked area: edit: not a bug but... you should consider to change Oshawotts behavior, during the starter selection... it get's really annoying when it traps you in the fire or water area edit 2: Voltorb Flip - I assume it is a bug: whenever I lose an 'even' level (2, 4, 6, 8...) my level gets halfed -> from 8 to 4; from 4 to 2 whenever I lose an 'uneven' level (3, 5, 7, 9...) I get dropped back to level 1 BUT sometimes... I just stay on my current level for a second try... Since I never really played voltorb flip in the original games... I don't know if this is correct behavior... edit 3: screw voltorb flip... I played to 20k coins... and after 10k coins my previous observations (above) are... well... they seem pretty random! Sometimes I don't got dropped a level, sometimes it halfed my level, sometimes it only dropped me by 1 level, and sometimes directly to level 1... at first it seemed to follow the 'even'/'uneven' pattern... but later it begann to be pretty random...

needs more Ice and Psychic types I still hope for an early Ice-type, like that snowleopard now we only need a chart of "how many of those X from type Y are dual-types?"

Pikachu not the Pikachu-line... JUST Pikachu! Reasons: it gets showed in your face EVERYTIME! (it is the poster-child after all) Here is a new Pokemon-game... have a Pikachu! Pikachu get so much "extra" love i could puke... - We make a special PIKACHU edition (to simulate the Anime) - here is Surfer-Pikachu, which knows the Water-move Surf! - oh here is the 6th Generation of Games... guess what - the only Pokemon to FINALLY say it's name as it's cry... IS FRICKING PIKACHU!!! - Here is an Item with which you can breed your Pikachus, so that they learn the strongest physical Electric attack! with a base accuracy of 100% and 15PP! YEAH YOU CAN USE IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN! ... oh yeah... and it can PARALYZE the enemy! (now Zekrom's Bolt Strike is the storngest ph electric attack... but it still only got 85% accuracy and only 5PP) - oh yeah and that Item DOUBLES Pikachus attack and Special Attack! making it's evolution Raichu utterly USELESS!!! YAY!!!!!!! - here is a special Pikachu that wears costumes! and these costumes grants it a special attack it normally can't learn! Like Hawlucha's signature-move Flying Press!!! and Pikachu is only 'loved' so much because it is Ash's first Pokemon in the Anime... they should have gone with Clefairy like they wanted to initially...

you know about Team Rocket... yeah, they are a Mafia... but considering the Events just prior to the beginning of Pokemon Blue/Green/Red and the events occuring in these games makes Team Rocket not THAT evil... they are trying to be the good guys! (like Team Magma in Saphir, and Team Aqua in Ruby) "why do I think that?" - you ask? ... well let me explain: befor the games start, Team Rocket is working on "Project Mewtwo" - to create the most powerful Pokemon in existence - so that it can do their bidding (and most likely serve as a bribing tool - "give us control or it'll decimate your city!") - Ok that is evil... BUT Mewtwo is self-aware, doesn't want to be controlled, gets an existencial-crisis and goes on a rampage - destroying the lab on Cinnabar Island and fleeing to the Cerulean cave. NOW the game begins... and Team Rockets "evil plans" are involving capturing Mewtwo so it cannot run rampant and destroying everything! They accepted that Mewtwo is uncontrollable for them, so they put every thing they have into stopping Mewtwo! ... well in their own "cruel" ways... Encounters: - The fossils at Mt.Moon - "Maybe the ancient Pokemon are strong enough to be able to keep Mewtwo at bay!" - The player denies that! - Cerulean City - TM Dig - "We need to access that cave unnoticed... if someone sees a bunch of us someone might get suspicious!" - the Rocket Grunt at the nugget brigde is a lookout... to report if Mewtwo decides to leave the cave, and trying to recruit the player because he sees the potential in the player to maybe able to stop Mewtwo! - The player denies that! - Pokemon Tower/Celadon City - Rocket HQ / Silph Scope - "There is an invulnerable Ghost Pokemon in the Pokemon Tower! - Maybe we can use it to stop Mewtwo!" Ghost-types are very effective against Psychic types... (the immunity to Ghost types in the first generation was sadly a coding error, which was not intentional!) - again the player denies that! - Silph Co / Masterball - "This stupid brat is denying all of our plans to stop Mewtwo! ... If we can't battle it... we have to catch it! - I hear there is a prototype of a ball that can catch ANY Pokemon!" - They want to use the Masterball to catch Mewtwo as a final effort to save Kanto! - but yet again... the player defeats them... so Giovanni says: "Screw it! Take the Masterball kid! I hope you know that you have doomed us all!" - Veridian Gym - Now Giovanni is just plain pissed! You foiled his plans and now you dare to stand before him in a gym-battle! - That man is already broken, now you are just giving him the finishing blow and he dismantles Team Rocket... It is PURE LUCK that the plazer stumbles upon Mewtwo in the cave after becoming champion... you know, Mewtwo could have gone on a killing spree, while the player enjoyed being the champion! The player doesn't even have to go into that cave... it's totally optional! Yeah... you just averted the destruction of the whole region and possibly more, by pure luck, and stopped an organization who would have done it, if you wouldn't have foiled their plan to do so... MULTIPLE TIMES! The encounters on the Sevi-Islands in FireRed/LeafGreen are a different division of Team Rocket... they weren't in contact with the Boss or the rest... and so they didn't want to believe that Team Rocket was dismantled... The Johto encounters, were purely to bring Giovanni back as their boss! They continued the research and experiments in hope that their Boss would return, to lead them again! Team Rocket is the deepest of all of the other Teams... who are mostly just selfish, power-hungry fanatics...

we had this thread before (or at least similar): For me, the Teams got progressively worse: 1. Team Rocket + Goals were simple - money and power. and they weren't hypocrites or fanatics about it. (even though it somehow made no sense with with Pokemon running around EVERYWHERE - but that's what the mafia does... they beat you, and break your legs if you don't pay) 2. Team Aqua/Magma + Goals with somewhat understandable/reasonable goals (extending land/sea for living space) - Only saw one side... they didn't think about the drawbacks 3. Team Galactic - Goals were to create a new universe under their rule / after their imagination... they (read: Cyrus) was just a power-hungry maniac. 4. Team Plasma + Goals were liberate Pokemon - yay - they were total hypocrites about it... when they wanted to liberate Pokemon, why are they 'enslaving' them themselves? - Ghetsis was, again, just a power-hungry fanatic (+ N was the only one who was NOT a hypocrite in regards of those goals) 5. Team Flare + Create a new world... - ... by destroying the old one and like 99% of the worlds population (on the 'chosen ones' of Team Flare should survive) - Power-hungry fanatic - C'mon... those outfits are ridiculous! (and they thought they were fabulous...)

Malamar has a double weakness against Bug. So a strong Bug Move should work. get Heracross / Pinsir / Joltik(Galvantula) in the Forest. As for grinding - Route 1 Bouffalants!

110 already? how many will there be in the end? 150 like the original? I'd like to see all the mons - the hype is real! I need all the Eeveelutions!

edit: I knew I'm gonna get rekt by a mod for this... but I realized too late, when I was already In bed (likely the reason why I couldn't sleep...) well, that happens when your hatred for a Pokemon is so big, that you black out about the rules... On the bright side - Mods that actually DO their job! YAY! and now I'll behave, I promise

well... it is! - in some way... Judgements Type is the type of the Plate being held by the Pokemon! If you want to use Judgement against Arceus with Nature Power - give your Pokemon a Fighting Plate, that will turn Judgement into a Fighting move, which is Super effective against "Normal" Arceus

so... ummm... is Destiny Bond considered a curse? and if so... does "after each turn" after both Pokemon attacked or after both attacked? If it's the first... well you can still cheese it with Destiny Bond either way: we can Judgement Arceus with Nature Power

ehhhhhhh... arguably... There is a Pokemon Centre at Mt.Silver... and if we consider the Anime - a Pokemon Centre is more than just a Pokemon Hospital - it's a resting place for trainers with (assuming) free beds and food for traveling trainers. Considering this: he might have occassionly went down to the Pokemon Centre, got his Pokemon patched up and make use of their services...

When I read Crocodile Hunter It reminded me of "Steve Irvin - The Crocodile Hunter" he had his own Zoo in Australia, which is now lead by his wife and Daughter since he died (I believe...) That's kinda a tribute to him A Crocodile-Type Pokemon as his Sgnature would make it complete...

In regards of the crocodile hunter... Gym-Leader Name: Irvine Gender: Male Occupation: Pokemon Researcher / Caretaker Type: Normal (In hope there will be a few Normal-Dual Types for variety) Gym: A research Facility, that resembles a Zoo OR the local "Safari Zone" (If it exists) Looks: Irvine has short dark-blonde hair and wears white / beige shirt and shorts. Personality: Careful and energetic. Always amazed of Pokemon behavior. "(Isn't / Wasn't) that AMAZING!?!" - his catch phrase.

In regards of species: (Note: I never visit the RP Forum, and therefore have no idea about Graterras and the region) Snowleopard early game Ice-Type, maybe Ice/Normal, with only one evolution - in the likings of Poochyena/Migthyena; Purrloin/Liepard; Rattata/Raticate etc. (evolving at level 20 - 24) A fast physical attacker. names could be: Snopup -> Snopard ------------------------ Dingo a normal type dog-like, most likely early-game... maybe make it normal/ground? ------------------------ Emu A Ground/Flying OR Fighting/Flying Type - since emus are unable to fly, and are pretty agressive (and it would fit the australian theme) I don't know if you'll bring in gender differences (like with Meowstic), but if so: Male Emus are way more agressive than Females... they could get different stat distribution upon evolving - the male more attack power; the females more defensive. I haven't come up with names yet... --------------------------- Australian Collar Lizard (to look it up here is the scientific term: Chlamydosaurus kingii) a fast Dark Type, since it's main source of defense is Intimidation (would also be it's ability), biting and mainly: running maybe name it: Colazard (or something) -------------------------- for possible Fossil-Pokemon: Megalania an giant Goana (dragon-lizard) - therefore I'd say Rock/Dragon or Ground/Dragon typing Diprodoton essentially a giant Wombat... a Rock/Ground typing maybe? (both are extinct animals with former australian habitat) I may work a bit more on these (abilities, moves, stats)... but I'm terribly at drawing, and never tried spriting... so don't expect anything like that... just helping with brainstorming here

You know... a Level 100 Dragonite using HYPER BEAM on a Level 1 Pidgey... Pidgey faints... ... it should have been UTTERLY DESTROYED, DESINTIGRATED... Pokemon would rule the world... if they would use their attacks against human civilisation... (like in the 'past' of the Arceus Movie... just a barren wasteland...) specifically in the game: How can Ace-Trainers or other Trainers be on the victory road with ONE(!) Pokemon, which has a lower level than the last gym-leader (and on top of that, being weak to that gym's type!)? The Gym-Leader would have utterly destroyed them! They wouldn't even be allowed on the victory road, because they could never get hold of that last badge! Why is the "Mafia" (read: Evil Organization) so friggin POLITE?!?!? "Oh no... I lost the Pokemon battle against this child... I better go out of the way / better disassamble my whole organization! Oh an here - Take my Money!" Why is my Pokemon unable to use that move (HM) outside of battle, without a certain badge... It can use it in battle just fine... but nooooo there must be an enemy Pokemon nearby to use that or what?? why do I need 'ROCK SMASH' when my Pokemon knows... like any other move that is stronger? I mean... Hyper Beam is one of the strongest attacks... but it can't destroy a simple rock?? (yeah... I hate that move...) Why is normal bottled water more effective in healing wounds than scientifically engineered Pokemon medicine? HOW do TMs/HMs work?? according to item-images they are discs... "Here hold that disc for a moment... Great! now you know move X!" Why can Alakazam with an IQ of ~5000 only remember 4 moves?

ummmm... well... because it says so: but yeah... another Fire/Fighting... I'm just tired of it... after three consecutive generations... why not something like Fire/Fairy (if it's supposed to be a Rabbit! Edit: and yeah: Fennekin = Fennec = species of fox = foxes are a family of canines = Dog Cyndaquil = Firemouse (according to Pokedex) = Rat Charmander (or rather Charizard) = Dragon Torchic line = Cock / Chicken Chimchar line = Monkey Tepig Line = Pig you could assume Ponyta could be the Horse Zodiak... even though it is not a starter

The first thing that came to mind upon seeing the starters: YOU BROKE THE RULE FOR THE FIRE STARTERS! (a bit of nerd-rage on my side ) since all official fire-starters are based on the chinese zodiak-signs... and Kangaroo is not one of them and: YAY for new Eeveelutions! (there should be a few concepts floating arround here in the create your own pokemon thread) and for the love of the almighty Mew, Helix and Arceus combined... please(!!!) don't let the Kangaroo be Fire/Fighting... it is a pretty obvious choice... but... COME ON!

WHAT? you have to buy 3000 diamonds to get 20 diamonds each day? You have to pay around 30€/$ for that?? THEN(!) they could have made it just a retail game to buy... seriuosly... and what do you need 20 diamonds for when you got 3000??? Balloons are: 2x 20 = 40 2x 30 = 60 2x 50 = 100 2x 70 = 140 2x 90 =180 1x 100 that equals to 620D WHAT DO YOU NEED the other 2380 Diamonds for? (the help-items like Pokemon house are relatively cheap... and most are buiable with coins)

sweet. I see the "additional type damages" for Fire - Water - Grass - Psychic a nodge to the 4 colours: Red - Blue - Green - Purple and with that the 4 Gems: Ruby - Sapphire - Emerald - Amethyst soooo... is this a hint to the original owners of the gems or the types of the elite four? to much speculating and reaching out for every possibility

Just finished "Mark of the Ninja" - great, beautiful game! occasionally playing: Pokemon Shuffle Pokemon Rumble World Heroes of the Storm Hearthstone FTL - Faster Than Light "Big" Game: Since I just finished "Mark of the Ninja" I have to look for a new big game to play... until May 19th - then it's all Witcher 3 - Wild Hunt!
