McLuvdisc: I found that. And i didn't no that is what his name meant. Dragon / Dark also seems possible and would be pretty cool typing. It would still hold true to the larvitar and gible fusion theory as instead of dragon rock it would be dragon dark.

I disagree that fighting being broken as flying attacks may not be used but flying pokemon are prevalent to resist and ghost can come in all day.

Speaking of dragons, anyone have any ideas on what the new pseduolegend is going to be? Right now it's looking depressingly like it's going to be Ground/Dragon again.

personally, I'm hoping for something thats not Reptile/Dragon like in appearance. I love Metagross because it's appearance is based off something so vastly different from the rest of the Pseudos. a mammal would be awesome, maybe some sort of sea creature even.

Uh yeah I'd take a badass Land Shark and a dragon that actually looks like a dragon and not an obese teletubby over anything in Gen 1 any day, thanks.

Edit: Anyway back to B/W, who wants to see more "ability x boosted pokemon's y power!" abilities? I'd love something like that for dragon types, would be a good way to restore some balance if it were distributed nicely (and on an dragon eevelution with 110 SPE/130 SATK it would be amazing)

Ehh, I like Dragonite. In fact, I love all of the dragons. Using hate to justify your own isn't a very good way to express your love for newer designs.
 
After looking into dragon dark and dragon rock i realized both of these would be really interesting and cool typings. I personally and find with a dragon pseudo as long as they pull a gen 3 and have a nonconventional pseudo like metagross along side it. I think a steel grass type would be an interesting pseudo especailly along side a rock dragon.

Yeah the pseudo dragon is getting a little old. Axe head looks a little like a dragon, but I can't be sure yet.

Grass steel would be kind of interesting. A quad weak, but so many ou pokes have quad weaks anyways. A weak to fighting as well. The positive would be grasses good resesits without all the weaks.

Edit: really sorry about the double post, I figurged someone would post something before I posted a second time.
 
Also just as Meta and Mence pair well together with typing a dragon rock and grass steel would pair well bar fighting attacks of coarse

Pidgey is inspired as all get out, son. They made a hawk adorable, while still looking like it could beat your ass. And then they gave papa hawk a ballin' mullet.

Then we get a ball with wings.

... Excitement ...?

Late, but here goes. Somehow, just because it's a "hawk" that looks "adorable" doesn't change the fact that's uninspired. It's not anything... it's just a bird, not even any kinda bird, it's just a bird. That's only a little more inspired than Mamepato who is just a pigeon (didn't someone say that earlier?), thanks to the cool-looking flowing head feathers it gets later that obviously had to have some kind of inspiration. And we don't know if that happens with Mamepato either like it did with Starly and Pidgey.

Not to mention, once again, if you describe every Pokemon in every mundane detail, they all sound retarded.

Also, the smart money says Axeheadmon is Dragon/Steel. You know it to be true.

it looks more dinosaur-like, if you ask me, more along the lines of Aggron in appearance. also, based on how early it was revealed, I'm inclined to think that Ononokusu is not this gen's pseudo. I could be wrong, however, as I'm just going by past trends (or what I think the past trends are).

I still hope there is more than one Pseudo this gen. assuming Ononokusu is one of them, and seems to be a desert Pokemon, an Ocean or Forest Pokemon would be a good opposite.

@PKMN Trainer Manson: A.K. is most likely a troll, so I would just ignore him.

That was a response to something else I said to him, so I felt the need for rebuttal. Though obvious ignorance of what "uninspired" means should have made it obvious to me it's a lost cause arguing about it... so that's my fault.

I also just like saying "if you describe any Pokemon in every mundane detail, they all sound retarded." Come on, it's definitely true.
 
I'd like this Gen's Pseudo-legendary to be a typing we haven't seen before, like a fire-electric type with levitate. That would be really cool :DDD It'd have a great HP stat and volt tackle-flare blitz as well as flamethrower-thunderbolt. And being a psudo legend, it'd get stuff like Ice beam too. I see it as being a grand mixed bulky sweeper/tank kinds pokemon. SR weakness does hurt, but what can ya do, right?

Since we have a new recoil Electric move (probably so Volt Tackle can remain exclusive), it would probably get Wild Bolt, which I think is special. Being mixed though would probably let it break walls or something, especially since being a recoil move, I expect it to be powerful.
 
I'm hoping Axe-head isn't a pseudo and is just another badass poke. But I'm gonna have to go with either Dragon/Rock or Dragon/Dark for this guy. Please no more Dragon/Ground.

Btw I want to see a Dragon/Fighting. Sounds interesting.

one physical and one special recoil move would just rock! It'd be the ultimate wallbreaker!
 
When ever i think of dragon fighting i picture dragonballz. But I would be fine with that typing.

The fire electric typing doesn't really appeal to me but hey its would be new. Dragon Rock however does seem like a really cool typing especailly with sandstorm boost would be sweet.

yeah... I'd also like to see a Mawile Evo, because she'd be really usable if not for her god-awful stats

While I don't think this would stop them if they really wanted to make a Mawile evo, it's really hard to take its concept anywhere else. It is what it is, and there's not really any interesting or easy route to take an evolution. It would probably end up being another one of those same thing but bigger cases. It's not like Sableye, who has a very clear direction.

Heck, I'm still sceptical Mawaile is really based on that spirit everything says it is. Since there's no similarity except two mouths (and I guess for some reason a lot of people see Mawile as particularly feminine-- I don't, but whatever).

But its stats are babyish, It could really use that evo. It'd at least be viable in UU...

That also means it can be made into anything. Say hello to the first steel-typed special sweeper!

Mawile could become a Medusa inspired Pokemon, with multiple smaller mouths as hair. seems pretty in line with the "mouths coming from your head" concept

That could be interesting. Though I'm not sure how I feel about drawing from two totally different mythologies for the same line of Pokemon... However, I THINK the same thing Mawile is based on (futakuchi onna or something?) had prehensile hair. Stretch it a little and say the prehensile hair also has mouths on it and I think it would be believable.

Octillery is seriously out there, really.
