That sounds pretty sweet, although then GF would have to introduce ANOTHER time travel-mon (unless team plasma has their own time machine).
Yeah, we have the Time Travel Pokemon and the Ruler of Time. I think we need the "Time Paradox" Pokemon.
Maybe some douchebag Pokemon that went back in time and killed his grandfather before he met his grandma. Now he's a distorted cluster that shouldn't exist.
(I hope nobody takes me seriously)
They want to free pokemon from Trainers, Dragnoite went "Lapras" and they are paying respect and remembering what they are fighting for.
As I sound in a past post.
i love you and i hope more people get that reference.
Well, I'm not sure, but they are knights, right? And in the Middle Age, the knights "used" to catch and kill dragons. Maybe they are dragon slayers and are showing to their grunts what happened to the last dragon that they saw. Just a theory.
Sounds good to me. Even if it is related to the story, I figure it will happen relatively early in the game and have little meaning to the goal of Team Plasma like the museum incident in RSE or the Valley Windworks in DPPt. (Although, Team Galactic did use the energy from there to make the Red Chain, or so says the anime.) For all we know, the Plasma Boss could just be raving about how the fossil Pokemon is awesome and they are awesome and awesome people deserve awesome Pokemon.
Cyndaquil is an echidna. It's really the only one of its line that I'm certain about (Quilava's fire spines are placed like a porcupine's but it's elongated like a weasel, Typhlosion is really too generic to guess what it's supposed to be). But the point is that its Pokedex entry calls it as a "Fire Mouse" which IMO lends the Zodiac theory some credence, just kinda stretched a bit. A plain old firey mouse would have been boring in my opinion anyway. If anything, being given a direction as far as designs go is nice.
It's interesting to note that I believe there was an alpha Fire starter design that was essentially a firey Pikachu, i.e. a fire mouse.
What do you mean "went Lapras"? ?___?
Hmmm why is there Dragonite bones? many Dragonite are extinct (nuuu my favorite dragon D: D:) in the Isshu Region, and Team Plasma are all like "GRR RAGE".
Sounds like MissingNo to me.
O NOEZ! Horn harvesting drove Dragonite to extinction!Oh wow, I am totally seeing the Dragonite resemblance now. That is awesome.
(I apologise for the horrible sketching)
But really, would it be that shocking? GF did go all "green energy" on us Gen 4. They might be continuing their save the earth campaign.
Holy crap please stop this ;_;
I doubt a video game company, which teaches children to enslave monsters, would have a secret agenda to force everyone into going green. The only green Gamefreak knows of is money. This storyline has me interested, though. Finally in a Pokemon game it's not just some nutjobs who have no (apparent) idea of what would happen when their plan unfolds. Team Plasma actually has a valid reason for their motives. Team Plasma would've probably helped us fight Team Magma and Team Aqua because they were going to create a world in which habitats would be destroyed and many species lost.
your avatar tell otherwise. they also appear to care about clean air and trees and stuff.
wally situation and how the clean air fixed that.
most starting cities are said to have clean air and got a significant amount of trees.
all NPCs around the game piss you off saying: omfg you came from that little town? i heard the air there is clean!

And the pro-enviro market is cash grab. Tell everyone that their bottles are gonna give them cancer, and suddenly everyone's buying steel bottles for $30 a pop and buying water filters instead of bottled water (Those aren't cheap).
On-topic: Where did that pic even come from?? This game needs to come out already, so we can stomp these rumors down... And I can finally see that Miju3 is fake (PLEASEGOD).
Precisely. Gamefreak can feed on the trendy stuff like "recycle" and "go green". If they really want to impress me, make N a vegan.
Yes, I was referring to the trendy stuff like Valley Windworks and the totally unnecessary personal windmills in New Bark Town. I'm not saying GF has a secret agenda, but they do stick little things like that in there for what I guess are PR purposes.
Orrrr flavor?
New Bark Town: Where the WINDS of New Beginning BLOW
New Bark town got proper winds in HGSS
The wind panes vains whatever mesh with it. It's not like WE USE WINDMILLS TO SAVE ELECTRICITY *more you know*
Virtually all of the graphical additions were unnecessary, but they added a lot of flavor to the locals.
I think the windmills are a nice visually pleasing element. They give personality to the area. This can be said for any town with additions like this. I wouldn't say it's necessarily for promoting going green; just look are Oreburgh, it's a coal mine.
It even had a giant pile of ore run-off.
And the Fuego Ironworks is, like, right behind Floaroma town.
Like the others have said; it's for flavor. It gives each location a unique quality, and they become identifiable. I doubt it's for PR purposes, simply because it really wouldn't help them. I mean, it's not like environmental agencies are going to give this game a thumbs-up just because they throw in tidbits about the environment; it's just how human society operates. It's one of the things people talk about, and I'd actually find it a bit weird if they didn't mention it in the games.
