I think Sneasel and Weavile would make great terf mons. So many great traits and they have an air of discernment.

every single female-only species is a

the whole "which fictional creatura from a kids game franchise is a radfem" discussion is getting a little stale. i've always liked to think that they're mentally retarded except the psychics and a few legendaries like ray and arceus. terf pokes implies there are troons in the pokemon world which i will never accept as canon no matter what.

Speaking of legends, I was reading up about Sanqua and it annoys me that even bulbapedia says she has a "striking resemblance to Karen AND Clair" when she doesn't look like Clair, that's just speculation based on a quest where text only says she has "weird clothes and a cape" in her house. Might as well be a hint at Lance (who is the champion of the elite 4 Karen is in)

>>387235 I feel like she has a small group of fans. I suppose I should be happy that she didn't get the Rika treatment. I was so excited to see Sanqua! Dont really see the Clair resemblance either.

I don't think Irida was intentionally made to look like May either tbh. It's mostly just the similar color choices. When they make references they make them pretty obvious because they do want you to notice it. Tbh I don't really like Iridas designs purely because they made her noodle limb skinny, even just looking at these two next to each other is weird - May is supposed to be 10-12ish and looks bigger than Iridia who is at least in her late teens, if not older. At least assuming she's meant to match Adaman which is the impression I got, and not that she was a literal kid.

No. 388156
>>388109This
>>388121Pokemon knows how to do furbait. Quaquaval is not furbait kek it's just poor concept realization. IMO they jammed too many different bird elements onto one bird. The mix of peacock/duck/whatever lobed foot bird they ripped for those red monstrosities resulted in an overdesigned mess to begin with and then adding in the carnival animations further muddied the waters. I don't really see an element of attempting to appeal to furfags in that though when they know what works historically in that regard and Quaquaval is nothing close to that.

but new snap is definitely a nice game with a decent amount of content. it takes quite a while if you wnat to finish the dex. it's good if you want a really chill and relaxing game where you just ibserve pokemon in their natural habitats and whatch hiw they react when you interact with them. it doesn't have a deep story or anything but there's a lot of possibilities since you can influence the pokémons' actions, make them interact with each other etc.

>>388502yeah i'm not criticizing the style evolution so much (sugimori's new style is polished and more unique, the old style is just nostalgic to me) as the common critique of everyone being overdesigned. the characters of gen 1 and 2 are memorable without having insane clothes and hair. not every random side character has to have "main character" levels of design. hell a lot of them have more crap on their clothes and hair than the protags do.
also this is a pet peeve of mine but i hate when non-adult characters are gym leaders or elite four members. you're telling me this child runs their own gym? where are their parents? do they go to school? i mean yeah obviously your protag isn't going to school in every game and basically wandering around being a pokemon hobo but why should i have any respect for a gym leader or elite 4 member who's my age or younger? these characters were all adults in previous games because they were supposed to be mentors. you were supposed to learn things from them. they aren't leaders just for being "the best" (falkner being one exception but he basically shows you what the gym of a nepo baby looks like and shouldn't be emulated.)

I generally like the newer designs, especially Alola and Galar for having a consistent theme yet making characters destinct from each other. However Paldea for some reason doesn't do it for me at all.
>also this is a pet peeve of mine but i hate when non-adult characters are gym leaders or elite four members. you're telling me this child runs their own gym? where are their parents? do they go to school? I hate it when they're clearly less than 10 like Poppy (especially since it's franchise lore that 10 year olds start a journey), but other than that my pet peeve is when real life adults insist kids in a magical world where adventuring has been established from the get go still insist they have to go to school (no offense anon, I just find it bizarre that's always where the line is drawn).

I very highly doubt they're meant to be legal adults, I'd bet 16 at most since that's the age Hilda and Hilbert are in BW2 (you only play as them at age 14 in BW) and Emma in XY is 16 too. I think the highest confirmed age you can play as is "around 15" in legends arceus.

>>388840>dead momNo anon, it's his dad who is dead!
I actually played both scarlet and violet and scarlet just hits SO much harder because it's his mom who is cold and distant (and then dead). Having a distant dad is like "too bad, nothing new" but when it's his mom it seems actually depressing. Idk if I'm just being sexist by thinking the mom is the one who should be more loving and caring tho kek

a bit OT, but most pitbulls are perfectly sweet, I know several vets who confirm that pittie mixes are nearly always wrongly registered, and most of the rescued/adopted dogs (which is a lot of their clientele) have obivous pitbull in them. The owner comes in like "this is my silver lab mix" and they all look at each other like "mmhm sure it's a lab, definitely"

Me and my friends used to watch him (and other pokemon focused channels) and I fell off because he said something so blatantly wrong that I couldn't ignore it, and not a comment in sight pointed it out. I left one myself but it got drowned in the other comments. Since then I started listening more carefully and noticed he made mistakes all the time and no one ever fact-checked it, so I stopped watching him… mentioned it to my friends one day and they all went "oh me too, he lied about this and that"

>>389625>most dragon types are way overratedI'm the dragon autist in my friend group and I still don't like most dragon types in pokemon, because they're just not "real" dragons. Charizard is one of a few pokemon that is a dragon, and it's not even a dragon type (except the mega which is in one gen and got tacked on like 20 years after it was made). Gyarados is imo one of the best designed pokemon dragons (eastern, obviously) and it doesn't even get a dragon type mega form!
I love pokemon as much as your next autist but they've done dragons so dirty.

He's very active in local anime conventions, in particular pokemon fandoms (unfortunately for us…) he's infamous online for changing his legal name to his favorite yuri ship. Why? Because he's obsessed with lesbian porn, in particular yuri, he's been running a yuri review blog for years. He cites yuri as a reason he realized he's trans. He's been called out online for making young girls feel uncomfortable (naturally, since he's a straight man). He likes dressing like butch lesbians in particular, and since he looks 100% male you couldn't even tell he's a troon most of the time, he got the chop and boob implants like a month ago tho. He is also an autist with ADHD and has alluded to having addiction problems. Great combo huh?
In case any other nonas are nordic and going to conventions here, please beware of this guy. He WILL be there, and he's creepy as fuck. For balance I would like nonas to post your favorite pokemon cosplays so we can get cleansed from seeing this guys poor version of it.

>>391015Ever since the shitty new games, I've been thinking of a perfect Pokemon game. Trying to think up a way to "shake up the system", make the games fun and playable again, while also fixing some (imo) horrid mistakes.
So here's my perfect game:
>Gym and Elite Four system based on colors, not elements>Gyms use pokemon that are of the same color group, i.e. red gym leader would use Electrode, Delphox, Octillery, etc.>Start from purple/violet gym and go through ROYGBIV. Elite Four uses black, white, and two other colors that are somehow appealing but I'm too lazy to look up atm>Shiny Pokemon are fair game to use in gym teams and Elite Four teams, too>Champion uses a team of various shiny Pokemon, pre-determined randomization of colors picked at the beginning of the game (so you can't soft reset for a diff. team just before you fight them).>No Gen 8+ pokemon (hated them)>SHINY COLOR REDESIGNS, for all the ugly/lazy shinies like Chansey, Mismagius, Gengar, Garchomp, Togekiss, etc. No. 391082

>>391021Having gym leaders not be type specialists is boring imo. I'd prefer if they had 1 type but had a few pokemon not of that type but that have moves, mega, or tera form etc etc so they still fit in - they used to do this and I miss it. To me it makes sense that if you're the fire type leader you'd want to also master fire type moves in non-fire type pokemon to prove how your type really is the best. Gyarados with flamethrower for example It also serves as more of a challenge while showing players that gyarados can be taught a move like that.
Alternatively I think they could be specialists in other ways that make sense (imo colors are too arbitrary) like have a bird pokemon only gym regardless of their type, only pokemon that live under water, robot-like pokemon with an electric type thrown in to power them and so on.
Colors are fun, but they're more suited for a side thing that's not gym leaders imo.

I hate that the AI entries likely won't be publicly addressed by TPC and they will just silently not pick those suspected entries due to the backlash for the next round. Granted, my understanding is that they would have been filtered by the later rounds since they require line art and unshaded colouring alongside the finished submission. At least some actual nice art got picked, too. I hope any of the Feraligatr pieces go on.

I miss the Mystery Dungeon series so much. I've always preferred it over the main games, both for the story and because the world always felt so fun and vibrant. I love how it gave a lot of personality to the Pokemon themselves, and focused more on them than the human characters. I really hope the series isn't dead, but considering how rare non-mobile spin-off games have become, I'm not optimistic…

>>394510I'm surprised bulbapedia doesn't seem to even mention the design obviously being based on the cheese string mascot when it's so obvious and memes where made on day 1 of it being seen.
I'm tinfoiling a tiny bit as I don't think they've said who designed it, but I fully think it was James Turner as I know he drew fanart of it early on so he's clearly attracted to it and it's very much his style. The question is did he rip off the design without telling the rest of game freak so they didn't know it wasn't an original design? It seems odd to me that they'd make a (somewhat) big deal out of the 1000th pokemon when it's a heavily derivative unoriginal design.
And again, why the fuck is bulbapedia pretending the rip off design isn't related to the cheese guy? It's like they're embarrassed to admit the resemblance and that all pokemon aren't totally original

I will forever hate Charizard for stealing the spotlight away from Dragapult. Dragapult should have been Leon's ace Pokemon instead just like how the ace Pokemon of previous champions (and Ghetsis) were the pseudo-legendaries of their respective regions. In Diantha's case, her ace is Gardevoir because no Gen 6 Pokemon were given mega evolution fsr. But in SWSH, Gen 8 Pokemon were able to Giganamax too, so they could have definitely given Dragapult a G-max form. But no, that wasn't possible because Charizard just HAD to be shilled to the death once again.
I don't like G-maxing all that much, but Dragapult is one Pokemon that really should have gotten one. Its stealth bomber design inspiration is just begging for a G-max form.

I like that some of them had claws/fangs, even the cute ones. I like that some of them were based on Japanese mythology (which no American kid in the 90s knew about). I loved that they all had unique silhouettes that weren't just "blob with 4 legs coming out of it". And the whole "genetics/artificial creation" theme of gen 1 was fucking awesome. The Bulbasaur line pulled that off so well. The fact that there were cool fossilized Pokemon you could bring back to life was every kid's dream. They felt more "real", as odd as that sounds. Like they had weight to them, like they could move around and exist as actual, living creatures. The new designs lack that more and more with each new generation.

>>395188I like the story when it's lore and worldbuilding, like the journal entries in the ship in Hoenn, or the old man in Alola who wants you to find his old friends who used to battle together. Small interactions with npcs and lore are great. I love the world building and the legends in Sinnoh and how everyone's always talking about the mysteries. I hated the story in Unova, especially the original Black and White, but I loved the little details and conversations the characters have with each other, and the growth we seem them have when we meet up again. It's like Animal Crossing in that sense where there's writing, but not plot.
I like exploring. I like the regions and the unique locations you can visit and the stories that are told from the environments.
I like the pokemon! I love raising them, collecting them, seeing what other characters are doing with them, minigames, etc. I like collecting items. I really just like exploring with my team the most. I liked in the early games how the people were in tandem with the pokemon, the pokemon felt like their own characters. A full, exciting world full of beautiful things to see and things to do is my favorite. As such, I fucking hated Paldea, and its hideous, empty world, and emphasis on human characters, and the pokemon just feel like character ornaments, except for the sad doggo and ugly bike dragon.

Do you nonas have pokemon OCs?
Mini vent, me and my friends make them all the time, but one of them always use her same 10-15ish pokemon over and over (and 9 of those are the eevee line) for literally every trainer and it gets so repetitive to hear about it… they also all have similar sounding names and the same kind of fashion style. I just literally cannot tell any of her OCs apart at all. The rest of us have talked about it but we're afraid to tell her that since she's just having fun. But it's really like a child drawing (she doesn't draw them though) the same thing over and over and every time you have to say "wow that's so nice dear" or she starts to cry. It's been years. And she expects full attention and comments on all her OCs too. Like half of us are on the spectrum and we don't do that, so we can't just blame it on that kek

I know this is fucking random, but over the last 20 years I've heard so many kids say something alone the lines of
>"My fave pokemon is ditto! Because it can transform into ALL pokemon, so I get all of them!"
>"If I could only have one pokemon for real it would be ditto so it can transform into the rest"
And it's now a full on pet peeve for me, because they don't even like ditto! They just want it as a "gotcha" the same way people say they'd ask the 3-wish genie for infinite wishes. A transformed ditto is also not the same as a charizard - it's still just a ditto. And guess what, it can only copy what it sees so if your friends don't have your favorite pokemon it still can't transform into them.

>>395127>>395130Sorry for the reply to old posts, but do you have any recommendations for fangames? I think SuMo is when I realized the magic had died for me with the main games. I still go back to old games, and I absolutely adore them, so I don't think I outgrew the franchise or anything. I'd prefer if they had pixel graphics, as few fan-mons as possible (personal preference, but I can overlook it if you think the game is really good), and a good sense of humor or story (just like fun dialogue, likable characters, that sort of thing; the story doesn't have to be an epic scale). I really like the actual world of Pokemon and the experience of finding all kinds of fun little details and NPCs, so anything that kind of replicates the experience of Gens 1-5 especially would be very nice. Sorry if this is super non-specific kek.

Right now I'm more upset that all the hair options for the player and trainer classes in SV are so fucking boring and basic when the gym leaders and team star get to have wild anime hair, at least make it consistent within the region… even worse is that after the DLC we found out team stars hair was fake, they just chose to style that way.

Why is the Pokédex that includes all Pokémon called the "National" Pokédex?
No. 398279
>>398214I disagree. I think the paint splatter and overall look of Mina is more whimsical and thus more fairy like, while Ilima's whole thing is a "straight-A student normie". I don't think they were swapped at all, just that they made cute little references to each other on purpose.
Not an attack on you nona, but idk why pokemon fans are so obsessed with the idea that nothing in pokemon is thought out or planned and things just randomly gets swapped around last minute with no changes in designs to reflect it. If they had made Mina the normal type trainer and given her green paint specifically to reflect that she has a normal type smeargle, then WHY would they decide to ditch that whole concept last minute and not even do the bare minimum of changing the green to any other color?
Are you saying their locations are swapped so the popular social school prince lives out in the middle of nowhere, and the "wandering artist" who wants to be alone is stuck in a school?
Or would the types just be swapped so the first trial is the newest most exciting fairy type (introduced just 1 gen prior) despite it being (and Ilima living) around the earliest routes where the regions basic normal types live? And the last island trial is the most boring basic normal type?
It just seems way more likely to me that they'd go "hey wouldn't it be cute if she had green paint like a smeargle since she's a painter? Maybe she even knows Ilima since he's the normal type expert"

>>397805I'm not the AYRT but I download pokemon pink, I chose jigglypuff as my starter, do you know if she gets any fairy type moves? She's at lv 23 rn and her movepool is still the shitty one from red/blue. It seems kinda pointless if they didnt' add moves for the new types, like how I'm gonna get stab lol

>>398839My first was a Barboach I caught in DP, at the lake there's at left of Eterna City.
His story is kinda funny, I realy wanted a Milotic but didnt know about Feebas (I had no internet connection at the time), so I tried to catch and train every fish pokemon avaible to see which one evolved into it & when it was Barboach's turn, the one I fished was shiny!
I had no idea shiny pokemon existed, so I almost turned off my console thinking it was a glitch, but luckly the sparkles made me reconsider kek
I got so dissapointed when I evolved him and found out Whiscash only had darker colors instead of being golden though… (But I still love him)
>>399144You were so luckly to find AND catch that Abra! Teleport 'mons are a pain in the ass unless you're prepared.
I'm curious about the two Buneary, were these hunts or pure luck? Her evo line are my favorite pokemon, I always try to get a shiny of her on every game.

Dawn has a Pachirisu, Iris has an Emolga, Bonnie has a Dedenne, Sophocles has a Togedemaru, James and Marnie have Morpeko, and Nemona has a Pawmot.
Not sure if Marill and Mimikyu count, but Tracy and James have them.

The only "sexy" thing about her is wearing shorts and thigh high socks. Even in the same game Nessa is just wearing a sports bikini, Melony is a milf with curves and while I don't agree people itt call Marnie "lolibait" for wearing a cute pink dress.

toxic self but failing because we can still see it under the kawaii facade she puts on

>>401441ayrt thank you nona! I think they usually put a lot of effort into character design even if it's not clear from the story. At least the newer characters, I think the old ones are more staight forward. For example Lt Surge from gen 1 is pretty much just a tough army guy. He's cool though, and it works!
By gen 6 we have designs like Wulfric, he is the embodiment of a walrus with his fat and facial hair that looks like tusks. His love for cold and ice type makes it so he doesn't even need to wear his jacket in the freezing cold. He wears his jacket around his throat like to mimic a cape, to show just how confident he is, and to create a triangular shape so he looks like an iceberg. He's just an old fat guy, but they still manage to make him look cool and have personality imo.
