Yes I hate Rocks...I love the fire and ice types and Rocks made things like Articuno and Charizard NEED spin support :(

Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Pokemon Black & White, aka Gen 5. Coming to Japan in Fall 2010.

I never understood why Curse is ???-type. The only reason I can think because instead of STAB based on type it does totally different things based on type. Otherwise, I think ??? is only a placeholder for any crazy glitches crazy hackers might make.
A lot of people designate one team slot to only one thing: getting rocks up. That's all that Pokemon does. Doesn't that say a little about SR?
I know it must be because of its ability, but they should have had them in the wild anyways. Imagine catching a Pokemon only for it to turn out to be Zoura/Zoroark instead.
I mean I think they change back after you weaken them.
Then half of another pokemon's job is to get it off the field. Either by spinning a non ghost or in 'Top's case getting in Foresight first if needed.
Would be cool. It'd be nice to see Tsutarja becoming Grass/Fighting. Take advantage of the fact that it's a snake with limbs...
I also really hope for Grass/Electric. Only makes sense because of FF Quetzalcoatl which I'd bet money is what Tsutarja's going to become, and I don't want it to be Grass/Flying...
Dark/Steel Tank pokemon would be awesome. Dark since war is bad mmmkay.
Anyone want to see a Mr Mime get a next evolution? They did it for Magmar and Electabuzz, I want to see Mime get used more often! I mean who doesn't want to see a massive sized Mime smash a Salamence and win?
Mr Mime just looks like a rape clown... he freaks me out.
I feel the same way-- I always wondered why Dark/Steel hasn't been paired yet, since I always imagine the two as a pair, being introduced at the same time. 4x fighting weakness sorta blows... but it'd be interesting!
haha no doubt, but wouldn't it be pro for him to be able to actually rape, rather than just look like it? xD!
I'd personally love to see him be able to absord Psychic attacks, like Electivire does with electric :P
If we're going with that idea then you'd need to get a Jynx evo, Scyther prevo, Pinsir evo/prevo, and tauros evo/prevo to complete that listing from 122-128.
Lapras and Aero could use evos and/or prevos too to go along with Rowan saying that only legendaries are so good that they don't need to evolve.
^ This.
In my humble opinion, Obscure, weird-looking pokemon like Jynx, Mr. Mime, and Exploud (among others) should never have been made.
Wait, who are you talking about here?
Forgot who suggested it, but I would love to see a Fire/Bug fire ant Pokemon, that would be awesome.
Hey guys. McLuvdisc here with some predicted evolutions for the new Pokemon:
Gear:
Munna:
Shimama:
Meguroko:
In all seriousness though - why are we talking about theoretical evolutions and type combos when so much actual information has just been revealed? For example, no one seems to care about Munna's new move Telekinesis, which "lifts the opponent in the air". What does this mean? Is being "lifted" a new pseudo-status? Will it change the target's ability to Levitate, similar to how Worry Seed changes it to Insomnia? I'd love to hear everybody's opinions on this.
Another thing that's puzzling me is the prospect of the third game (a la Yellow, Crystal, etc.) and what the cover Legendary in that would be. For the past two generations, the third game has always focused on a Pokemon that fits in with the initial duo. Rayquaza, the master of the sky, forms a trio with Groudon (land) and Kyogre (sea). Similarly, Giratina, as the "Renegade" Pokemon, represented a rebellion against the ordered structure of space and time formed by Palkia and Dialga (this is most obvious in his Distortion World, where the laws of time and space are completely broken). But if Reshiram is supposed to be Yang and Zekrom is Ying, what else fits in with those? Yin and Yang are polar opposites in everything, so its hard to see how a trio could be made out of them. Maybe we'll get a "neutral" Pokemon...but that just sounds boring.
Thoughts?

Thoughts?That was a guy called Martijn who made some (probably false) statements to Pokebeach.
Yeah, I mean I am a big fan of the originals and find them to be one of the best made. So I would love to see the originals have some new material, new evolutions and such.
Never say such blasphemy! Jynx and Mime don't want you either! :P
Because Ice Beam is pro.
I wasn't talking about anyone on here, if that's what you're asking. Fire/Bug would be a cool type combination, but it gets raped by SR (which I think should be capped at 25%, anyway).
A while back someone suggested a Mr. Mime evo that was named Sr. Mime and I first read it as Sir Mime. It could be a mime in a suit of armor and be Psychic/Steel. Its type combination and Filter would make it a great wall.
We can get a Mr Mime evo if it gets a new attack called Free Candy. It deals Psychic damage and causes Attract. Only works on females too.
Yin and Yang are polar opposites in everything, so its hard to see how a trio could be made out of them. Maybe we'll get a "neutral" Pokemon...but that just sounds boring.
There's a thing called Taijitu, which translates to "diagram of the supreme ultimate." Taijitu is the actual symbol for Yin and Yang and represents interacting parts. The translation makes it seem like a possible contender for 3rd legendary.
