Possible the new OU? Since people online in the competive play have always a held item on their pokemon. Magic Room has the possibility to slow specific teams down.

 

Even when I don't play competitive I have some sort of hold item.

 

Yeah, you lose Banded or Specs kills, you can't outspeed with Scarf. The problem is that your team shouldn't need items to function, since Magic Room is a field effect.

 

Atm' date=' I'm thinking Kibago or Ononokusu is the pseudo-legend of the game. But, we could have a Hoenn repeat and have 2 pseudo-legends.

 

Looking at Ononokusu, it's definitely a Bug-type (derp). It could be pure, but I'm thinking Dragon, Rock or Steel for it's sub-type.

 

For the starters, Tsutaja's final is pure or Dragon, Mijimaro's is pure or Ice, and Pokabu's is pure or idk. Maybe Poison or Ground? It's hard to tell.

 

I'm really hoping for a Dark/Dragon. 2 of the most popular types and they still haven't done it. ;-;

 

And they need to hurry up with the Hoenn evos considering the Hoenn remakes are the next games in line...

Mijumaru could be Water/Normal, which I was everyone at Smogon is wanting for two awesome physical STABs. Seriously, Piplup looks like it could be Water or Water/Ice or anything, but you didn't realize it'd be Steel until after it evolved.

Woogaru sounds better, Wargle sounds like what it would say if you strangled it:/ Doesn't anyone else dislike it though?? It looks like it's wearing blue pants...

 

Magic Room definitely isn't for building a team around, I can only see it slowing down Choice Pokemon and Life Orb users who would otherwise rely on the boosts to get the kills it can.

 

Rock/Dragon would be cool for Kibago.

It's actually one of my favorites. Kibago is my favorite, Ononokusu, then Woogaru, Zekrom, everything else. The gothic thingy is my least favorite.

On the topic of starters...

 

Charizard' date=' Feraligatr, Blaziken, Empoleon

 

8)

[/quote']

 

Charizard and Blaziken are awesome, Feraligatr is outclassed by Gyarados and Empoleon is worthless in-game, because it had the worst moveset possible, since most of its attacks that it learns via leveling up don't match with its Stats at all and is worthless end of the game because the game becomes trigger happy with Earth based attack.

 

Let's talk about Venusaur,Swampert and Torterra instead.

Emp is still a great OU pokemon. The one I use in OU can take a T-Bolt and live so that is something.

 

Ven: Great in UU

Swamp: Just great

Tor: It's ok. I use one in my NU team

 

I don't have an earthly idea what the final starter evos type will be. I hope there's a Fire/Grass' date=' it was just something I wanted for awhile. We already have Water/Grass, so why not Fire/Grass?

[/quote']

Fire/Grass is a type I've wanted for some time too. Both types cover most of the others weakness so only Rock (>_>), Flying, and Poison would be left. The best art is it hits a lot of basic types for 2x damage. I've also seen the perfect fakemon for the type

pkmn___Jackoware_by_Narsilion.png

 

I would so use that pokemon.

 

Also I want a Lanturn evo.

 

And on the topic of the Dragons, since it's common for most to end up with a 4x Ice weakness I think the odds of the grass starter ending up as a dragon are decent. Kibago is also likely to end up with a type that makes him 4x weak to Ice. And no, I don't want this, but it is the most likely outcome.

@ Luvdisc' date=' Sharpedo, Sableye, Mawile, Torkoal, Crawdaunt

 

No, hell no, a thousand times [b']no[/b].

 

You ever hear of an opinion? If not, you should probably look it up.

 

I want for there to be evos of those Pokemon. Besides, Sharpedo and Crawdaunt evos would be awesome.

 

Luvdisc, Sableye and Mawile suck. A lot. They need evos. :/

Maybe they were intended to suck? Also, WonderEye is pretty decent.

Pachirisu better get an evo too.

 

Pachirisu evo would be coo. Giant' date=' badass squirrel thingy. I'm more concerned about Hoenn evos though. Cause like, Hoenn remakes n shiz.

 

[s']alzo guiz wuldn it b coo iph saleemence got n evo o em jee[/s]

 

Tbqh, I kinda want to see a 4 line evo. Ralts line doesn't count since it's an alternate evo.

I have a quick question for you guys. I'm going to use one of the Eeveelutions (either Jolteon or Vaporeon) in FireRed' date=' but how long after getting Eevee should I evolve it? Should I wait a few levels or do it right after getting it? Thanks.

[/quote']

 

I always wounder when to evolve an Eevee, i do it straight away but you should ignore me and wait for someone that knows better.

In Firered? Straight away. IMO, Vaporeon is the best choice.

 

Raichu and Zapdos are much better options for an Electric type.

I agree with Eury 100% on this one. Raichu is a great game play Electric type.

Eevee doesn't learn any notable moves during its level-up process that any of the Eeveelutions can use, so always evolve it right away. Just double-check my statement using Serebii.

 

Raichu and Zapdos are much better options for an Electric type.

 

Zapdos is a legend, and most generally don't use legends in-game.

Jolteon is faster and has higher SpA than Raichu, has better stats everywhere except Attack (not like Raichu is using Attack without the Phys/Spec split), and Volt Absorb > Static.

 

Jolteon is easily the best non-legend Electric-type in the game, no exceptions. Or at least in FRLG.

 

Also, Vaporeon doesn't provide much use in-game, since using wallish teams don't help. I don't mind you using bulky Pokemon, but in-game is more offensively oriented when you just want to faint shit and get through the game.

I'm pretty sure both are NU, but I actually like Glaceon a lot better. I see a lot more use out of an Ice STAB than a Grass STAB, and it's fairly bulky on both sides of the spectrum, despite a shitty Base HP.

 

Also, Glaceon's sprite is kick-ass. =)

Zap a legendary and Raichu is crap. Jolt is one of the best electric types. Their is a reason Rai is NU and Jolt OU.

 

Also, I'd rather use a Pikachu then Raichu simply because it is much cooler.

 

I'm still using Vaporeon 'cause I never actually used it. I can breed with a Ditto and get multiple Eevees. Which Eeveelution is better' date=' Leafeon or Glaceon?

[/quote']

Their about even IMO, so it's a matter of taste.

The funny thing is Leaf is UU while Glac is NU. Giving a lot of defense to a pure Ice type isn't the best with weakness to Rock, Fire, Fighting, and Steel all of which can make fast work it if.

I'm not saying it should be used as a wall, I'm saying that it's bulky enough to take some hits, even one or two super-effective hits.

 

In in-game play, I see Glaceon working more than Leafeon, although I've never experimented with the latter.

 

When did Leafeon become UU? o_O
