Smogon's First "Create a Pokemon": Poll 7, part 2 - Page 2

Deucalion2 · Dec 29th, 2007, 8:05:11 AM

Same as Calciphoce. Soy Monk's looks like a digimon. I like DougJustDug's, but it pales in comparison to Cyzir's, and justsomechick's.

Odinwolf · Dec 29th, 2007, 8:37:09 AM

Cyzir and Soy's characters don't look like pokemon at all. They are drawn well, but shouldn't our pokemon look like a pokemon if its going to represent our board? This isn't Dragon Ball Z or Alien vs. Predator. It's Pokemon. Comon guys.

Deucalion2 · Dec 29th, 2007, 8:41:09 AM

Mind you, an Alien versus Predator pokemon would kick butt.

blue jolteon · Dec 29th, 2007, 9:35:10 AM

JSC and Doug, they look the most pokemon-like

Bogmire · Dec 29th, 2007, 12:19:22 PM

I only voted for 1 (the first one), because I don't like the other 3 at all. Just some chick's doesn't really reflect the pokemon's 121 base speed. it looks slow to me. I can't see it outrunning a teleporting psychic type like alakazam. lol I'm not even sure where I'm going with this. but just some chicks would've been my second choice.

Hyra · Dec 29th, 2007, 12:36:57 PM

wow, what is with all the detail =/= Pokemon?

Imagine the Ice Crystals on Cyzir's as feathers, tada, not any more complicated then Ho-oh or Fearow. Or lets look at Tentacruel and its multitude of feathers. Or maybe Tangrowth. And Soy-Monk's is just as detailed as Tyranitar or Rhyperior.

Yeah, detail is uncommon, but not unheard of in Pokemon.

Agreeing with this post. So I voted JSC and Doug.

Urza · Dec 29th, 2007, 4:25:38 PM

seconded 1 & 3.

i like just some chicks. but it does not fit the stat distribution or discussed movepool for this pokemon. cyzir visheen's can be chilled out for spriting, and soy monks is the next best. just some chicks looks like it's meant for support. a bug version of lopunny.

KoA · Dec 29th, 2007, 4:57:24 PM

1 and 2 had my vote. It was a shame that my KoA bug didn't live to the second round, but that's life.

Those two were my favorites aside from my own because I'm a conceited asshole. :P

TUskate · Dec 29th, 2007, 5:01:44 PM

the only reason i don't like cyzir's is it reminds me way to much of scizor

X-Trader · Dec 29th, 2007, 5:11:42 PM

3 only! It rox hardcore-style

dijin · Dec 29th, 2007, 5:40:44 PM

I voted Cyzir again.

Cooper · Dec 29th, 2007, 5:57:36 PM

So the only reason you guys aren't voting for Soy is because it's detailed? Weirdos. Remember these are the drawings, like Ken Sugimoris. We haven't even gone down to sprite form yet.

Zenigame · Dec 29th, 2007, 5:59:03 PM

1 and 3

eric the espeon · Dec 30th, 2007, 11:04:37 AM

1 & 3

xBLUEx · Dec 30th, 2007, 11:19:46 AM

CyzirVisheens' is kick-ass! that thing looks amazing!

Rhykune · Dec 30th, 2007, 1:10:34 PM

I don't think SoyMonk's has enough Bug or Ice in it. I would vote for it if it fit it's typing.

TaiwaneseDude · Dec 30th, 2007, 1:39:01 PM

^ I agree.

Voted Cyzir and Doug again. Love just some chick's though but it doesn't seem "agressive" enough. :(

Does Azelf look aggressive to you? Because it's one of the most powerful sweepers in the metagame.

Hey, look, it's my opinion. No need to ask me to justify it. This is all a matter of opinion, and personally, I don't think just some chick's image looks aggressive enough.

Azelf.. is a "legendary." So whatever, by knowing that, I already assume that it's going to be a powerful Pokemon.

Just because I don't agree with you doesn't mean you should accuse me for my OWN opinion. Jeez. Just some chick is at 2nd place anyway. *waves*

Calm down, you're acting like you're being attacked, which you're not. And I actually agree with him. A pokemon doesn't have to look aggressive to be a beast.

Edit: I think Togekiss is adorable, yet we must all agree, he is a beast. Again, don't match power with appearance.

Superbro · Dec 30th, 2007, 10:32:54 PM

i voted the last two. The first one only looks cool because its attacking. The second one looks way too happy

Gothic Togekiss · Dec 30th, 2007, 11:19:54 PM

^ Kinda agree with SuperBros there despite the fact I voted for #1

Hyra · Dec 30th, 2007, 11:26:12 PM

well, its time for JSC and Cyzir to duel it out.

also, I don't get why most people who voted for Soy Monk also voted for Cyzir's. That's not helping Soy Monk win. Same thing with those who prefer Just Doug's. It just seems counterintuitive.

Heh, the way I read the question it sounded like it, but alright. ^_^

Haha, good then. I don't necessarily think that an ice/bug Pokemon that's supposed to have "close combat" and "megahorn," since everyone's talking about it should.. look like that. It just doesn't fit right in my mind. That's all I'm saying, because to me, it doesn't look agressive enough.
