Smogon "Create a Pokemon" Part Deux: Poll 6

Hyra · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:23:41 PM

Okay, FutureSuperStar won the last poll meaning we have our Base Stats. This is what is known so far about our Pokemon:

Typing: Ghost/Fighting
90 HP / 105 Attack / 90 Defense / 65 Sp. Attack / 110 Sp. Defense / 65 Speed
Total = 525 BST

Yeah, that's not a lot of real usable information. And this next step won't really please those ready to play a rousing game of theorymon. Before we can choose ability, move pool, or anything else that might help this Pokemon become more solidly placed in terms of competitive battling, we need to choose how it works. Basically, you are going to vote for any option below that you would like to be the design. Unfortunately, there are only ten slots in a poll, so I can only list ten of them.

All art and all info on art can be found here.

Clicky poll time. You have two days for this one.

darkie · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:25:50 PM

this is tough.

Adamant_Torterra · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:27:14 PM

KoA's banette evo ftw! We all know it needs it, and that just looks kick ass.

Hyra · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:28:47 PM

Yeah, I just realized I have three from KoA and three from TaB. Let's just say I didn't realize that until I was working on the poll. I chose the art based on its merit, some of the art I didn't realize was by the user until I was posting the poll.

Edit:
Be greedy and vote for as many as you want, I voted for six. Just don't vote for all ten, as that's pretty pointless.

andersatan · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:29:05 PM

Odd I can only see coopers pic...

Adamant_Torterra · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:31:30 PM

lol wth for some reason the percentages for the poll are wrong

jujuomi · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:32:25 PM

I love the idea of Sanglunaria's

All fighting pokemon are "human shaped" and this one is human shaped, ghostly and I can imagine this thing using shadow punch and cross chop. I don't know, but i like this one best.

MegaMewtwo · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:32:36 PM

How many do we pick?

Also, I seriously don't get why the Banette evo is a choice when it was already decided this was an original Pokemon.

Because Plusle and Minun don't evolve into Pikachu. Or the large amount of bird and fish Pokemon that are unrelated. Just because two Pokemon look similar does not mean one evolves into the other.

**Deck Knight** · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:36:34 PM

I loved DougJustDoug's explanation for the art and the design is unorthodox to say the least.

Also liked KOA's Viking and Sanglunaria's floaty Black Mage :-D

tennisace · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:37:10 PM

tough choice but DJD's mr.t ghost, KOA's marrionette and TaB's fencer are all my favs.

edit: koa's marrionette looks like it should be a weavile-esque sweeper, not a balanced tank

Gothic Togekiss · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:37:31 PM

Chose KoA mummy because it kicks ass. Would have voted also for his Viking aswell but meh lol

FFMaster · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:39:04 PM

I voted for KoA's puppet and Black Mage(yes i know the pokemon will be a phys fighter)

Goodbar · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:40:12 PM

KoA #3 and TaB #3 both nice, though I much prefer the former and really hope that one wins

trader · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:41:08 PM

Man, why is Doug just Dougs getting the most votes?It looks nothing like a pokemon i like the mummy one and the marrionate one

GengarCrysis92 · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:42:20 PM

I really have to say this: While DJD has been very helpful to this process, and while he is an amazing artist, his sprite is in no way a Pokemon. It is like a D.C./Marvel Character more so. I just do not see it as a Pokemon. Pokemon are creatures, barring the Human shaped ones, and even the Human shaped ones are far from Humans. DJD's looks exactly like a Human, bar no eyes and legs. Just pointing that out. Don't get me wrong, i like it, but not for Pokemon.

I like TaB's Boxer, KoA's Marionette and Viking the best.

It's mostly the fact that it looks soo non-pokemon and soo "badass" that people are attracted to it more than something more pokemon-ish. Same case could be said for Syclant.

**Mario With Lasers** · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:49:10 PM

The marionette one is amazing, even though it screams Bannete Evo. I will vote for the kana one, though. It's simply too amazing.

Yeah, well Syclant looked like a Pokemon. I can just picture running into it in the Snow place in D/P. I can't picture DJD's coming up in the Wild. it would be like a trainer rather than a Pokemon.

Miltonic · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:56:37 PM

i voted for the Kana one by tea and blues

it was hard deciding since most of them atleast to me dont look like pokemon at all.

Suburvia · Feb 15th, 2008, 7:58:13 PM

Voted for KoA's viking. Like it the best, and it looks like it could be a Pokemon.

I'd discuss something here, but there isn't much to discuss at this point.

BTW, congratulations, FutureSuperStar, on winning the stat spread vote.

.....You know, that's not a bad idea. I can see this Djinn guy being more in control rather then the trainer, hell it could be it's own trainer and fucking battle gym leaders with a few of his sparring buddies lol

Fishin · Feb 15th, 2008, 8:03:30 PM

Not voting yet (still trying to decide which ones I like best), but my favorite so far is easily the Kana one from Tea and Blues. Banette evo one is somewhat nice, but it needs to be saved for a Banette evo, and just from looking at this thing's stats, it clearly isn't one.

That's not what I said....<_<; I said maybe we can send it along with all the other Pokemon and say it is a TRainer that you find on the Routes. Better yet maybe a Gym Leader. Ghost or Psychic leader. Works...

Xênaz · Feb 15th, 2008, 8:30:27 PM

KoA's first Mummy one is the only one that makes me think "Pokémon".. I'd love that one to be picked.
