I guess we're all just waiting for the CoroCoro leaks. I haven't ever followed CoroCoro before, so... is it a bimonthly thing, but it's usually leaked 5 days early? Every month on the 15th? |

I'm just asking what Frillish's monster basis has to do with these things. Because if it isn't related to spirits or possession, then I guess that is an example of GF just going based on superficial traits like spookiness. |

IDEA:
What if, this gen, we were to start somewhere new? In BW2, we started in an actual town for once. What if we started in an apartment building of a big city at the center of the region? That would be interesting.

Shockwave, everyone knows that a good hero starts off with humble origin in a southern hodunk town, unless you're the characters in BW2 who start off in a progressive area that's already got every ammenity under the sun. Even then, you live in the only two-story house at the southeast end of town. Still, I wouldn't count out the possibility of a topographical change in your starting location. It depends partly on what lies around Route 3 as shown in that commercial. |

maybe 16yo?It IS a cool idea, let's say they live with their parents IN the apartment, and not that the main characters PAY RENT to live in the apartment :p

idk, I just consider haunted and possessed to both mean that something is being controlled by an outside spirit. And you can infer that applies to a lot of pokemon. For example, why would a bunch of spirits take the shape of a balloon by themselves? Drifloon is probably a balloon possessed by those spirits. So you're saying Frillish is based on a spirit? Ok, now it makes sense. It's just that you were referring to its basis as a monster before. So like I said, it seems like every ghost type is based on a spirit(s) or a possessed object. |

And from what I've come to understand, the ghosts that become Drifloon are kidnappers and potential pedophiles. IMO, they'd want to turn into something a child would want to hold. ![]() The ghosts actually do a good job at playing to the fears of children. "Oh, I can't leave my toys alone!

I think if you started out in a big city it would kind of ruin the spectacle of actually getting to a big city because you're already there.
I can't have been the only one to have been impressed by Sky Arrow Bridge and Castelia city when I got there for the first time |

Gengar is likely not a dark type solely because it was created before the dark types introduction, most pokemon are infact given types based on the monster they're designed based on, in most of the cases where a given animal is neutral they might add a bit of flaire by giving it a type that would not seem to match ie Pikachu. Things are sometimes done for the purposes of the meta, moody was given only to pokemon that were not commonly used such as bibarel and glalie, and it was also given an abuser in smeargle, Scizor getting bullet punch was also done seemingly only to raise its usage and make things more balanced. In the same respect certain types are given to balance a pokemon without regard for if that type works on the conception, being the hollow of the pokemon nincada shedinja is more of a possessed husk not a ghost, its typing should be bug dark but that is far harder to stop than bug ghost losing the ghost and dark weakness only to be replaced by the rare bug type that I don't believe anyone viably used back in 3rd gen.

Well, dearest Narutard. By the looks of it, the story isn't over. If we're going to come at each other like fourth graders (which you seem more comfortable with), then I'd tell you to go back to your bullshit Youtube channel and stay there like the little retard vblogger without a cause that you are. But I'll fight to stay above saying much worse things that would warrant a warning as long as you keep from making useless statements such as ones that suggest that random crap shoved up my ass is means for me acting like a bitch.
I know Bronzong isn't a ghost type, but he makes for a great example of Pokemon's relationships to haunted objects and the paranormal. He's based on an old story about a brass bell that was cursed by a selfish woman. Bronzong and Golurk, however, cannot be compared. Golurk is not a "living suit of armor". Nobody ever wore clay as armor. Golurk and Claydol aren't "posessed", because they were given their own life by different supernatural means. The clay that makes a Claydol was given life by a mysterious laser, but that's not a haunting. Golurk was brought to life by an ancient civilization, whether they used loose souls to animate it or not is up for debate. And those definitions of "haunted" and "posessed" exist because haunted lunchboxes are as much of a thing as haunted mansions. It's inconsiderate to not think ones wording of something experiencing a paranormal encounter carefully. To remain gramatically traditional, one wouldn't say "wow now", but rather "woah now" when expressing a desire to slow something down brought on by a shocking event. Also: Quote:

Now, if you don't want to be called out on, then just stop making those douche remarks. Design-wise, he's a suit of armor, regardless of if he's made of clay. And if they previously didn't have life, then they were possessed by life, even if it was never in a different vessel. To be gramatically traditional, "well" is followed by a comma, not a period. This is a forum though, nobody cares. EDIT: Nevermind, you fixed that and added another douche remark. This can serve as a different example: "It's inconsiderate to not think ones wording of something experiencing a paranormal encounter carefully". I think you're missing a word or two there. We agree on the actual point of this ghost argument. So let's not continue that. And the personal argument can stop too as soon as you're ready. I don't think anyone else really cares here how valuable you find my posts to be. |

We all know how Dragons dominate the OU metagame, and that is why some people don't want Gen6 to bring any more Dragons, and I kind of agree. However, I would like for weaker dragons to be available, so that RU, UU and NU could have some to play with other than Dragon pre-evos. Right now, only two fully-evolved dragons reside in the lower tiers, Druddigon and Altaria. It would be nice to have something like this:
yup, i know it's a digimonDrake Dragon/Normal

Zyrefredric, that's...freaking beautiful. It kind of reminds me of how digimon can evolve into something of a completely different attribute if they meet special requirements through training(i blame your use of theever-precocious Demiveemon), but it's a killer idea.

If you're so egotistical that you have to feel like you already knew everything 100% the same way that you do now, then that's fine. I'm just saying I agree about the basis for all ghost types as things currently stand. |

A golem is any anthropomorphic being brought to life my inanimate matter, and are monsters from way back in the biblical times. Robots are animated due to a power source and are still mostly a product of science fiction. Did you think it was a suit of armor? a robot? Mechs are armored, but they aren't always "suits" of armor, if that's the connection you meant to make. Before you make incorrect statements probably brought on by the misuse of the phrase "golem" in another continuity, take a look at the clues that already exist in this franchise first. cough cough, the evloved form of Graveler, hack cough cough.

Wouldn't this be a bit OP for those tiers though? I DO LOVE this idea however very original....just not sure how it would fit without being unbalanced.

It is inspired by Eevee! The difference is, there is no way to control the evolution, as it is determined solely by IV's. I can only imagine how frustrating it is trying to complete all forms in-game. That's a lot of Drake-catching!

@shockwave527 below, don't worry, I'm well aware of that..^^ It's just a wish/hope though. I'm sure you're right when you say we WILL be getting powerful OU dragons instead of weak NU/UU/RU ones.
