Whimsicott

It looks like some sort of sheep/ram thing, except it's a grass type. Pretty cute, I think I'd like this pokemon. It's abilities are interesting. It either treats its non damaging moves like quick attack or it can ignore Reflect/Light Screen/Safeguard. I love me some status whores when they're on my side, but it looks like it suffers from the "Evolved with stone, can't learn **** anymore" syndrome. Not as badly but still. I sure hope your pre evolution learns a bunch of status moves, otherwise this is quite a waste. You know you're in good shape when you make a pyro trainer such as myself interested in getting you.


Snorlax

Oh Snorlax, how I loved you in the anime. How I can't stand trying to capture you in the game. How I really didn't like anyone using your Curse move set because it was overused. Anyway it seems that this pokemon has lost some of its fame. It is no longer the heaviest Pokemon there is. Slaking existing doesn't help you out either. Blissey also took away your meat shield job. Learning Slack Off helps but people still found the pike spore more useful. That's a shame, because you shouldn't be left out of so many teams. The only thing you've done wrong is have Munchlax come into existence(and which one among of us can claim perfection?). Other than that, a solid first gen Pokemon. Hopefully no one will ever out eat you. You deserve to be the best at ONE thing after all. (All of your abilities are well suited by the way.)


Houndour

I love this Pokemon, but I can't help but compare it to Growlithe. Both are dogs, both are fire type, both will mess you up if you're on their turf at the wrong time. You're a heck of a lot less popular though it seems. Perhaps because you aren't owned by 95% of Jennies in the Pokeworld. Considering Jenny isn't a very good officer, this is perplexing. The only other problem is that you can't seem to take a hit, at all. This cuts down on your intimidation factor. Speaking of which, why don't you get this? Flash Fire is nice, but why don't you get Intimidate? You evolve into a damn hell hound for goodness sake, no other canine is more scary than that. Glass cannon or otherwise, something with "doom" in it's name isn't something to mess with. Early Bird is somewhat of a waste. If you're put to sleep, chances are you aren't going to survive long enough to wake up once you start getting hit. Even if you were, you're nocturnal. Nocturnals can't be early birds because they're sleeping when the early birds are getting up. Despite your oddities, you're still superior to your pure fire counterpart, so don't worry, even if you'd probably lose to it in a one on one fight.

Lairon

You're one of the many "Unappealing when you first evolve, awesome when you evolve again" Pokemon, joining the ranks of Charmeleon, Pupitar, and Bagon. You're also quite annoying to fight. You're either using Iron Defense to ensure the opponent has to send in a special attacker, using Protect like a little ***** to waste time, or using Roar to prevent capture, or to spread xp around preventing a level up. I hate to say this, but I'm just not very found of you Larion. That's ok though, because you're are ****ing awesome once you evolve. Hell I'm going to be training a shiny Aron soon so I'll be giving you some love along the way regardless. I'll also give you some credit for having the Heavy Metal hidden ability. You look like a Pokemon that's into that kind of music. Grow strong Larion, and one day you'll be able to make badass locomotion noises in that music of yours!

Leafeon

You're an Eeveelution so you're pretty nice by default. Problem is... you're just not appealing. You're impossible to get without trading unless the trainer is playing D/P/Pt (unless you can do so in B/W as well), you suffer from a poor move pool, and your name isn't too interesting. Hell, you can't even claim hold of the "Game Freak hates you" trophy as Flareon has that firmly in its paws until he can (legally) learn Flare Blitz. Worst of all, your counterpart (Glaceon) out shines you in just about every way. You're a bit of a mix between Flareon and Umbreon. I'll let you decide if that's a good thing or not. Seriously though, tell Game Freak to spice you up. You were born from one of the most interesting pokemon there, let's continue that interest. Also your shiny form sucks.

Sawsbuck

Ok so you're normal grass? I guess because you didn't have enough weaknesses as a grass type? You're pretty neat though, changing forms during the weather. Sadly, this also lands you firmly in gimmick/novelty zone. Just ask some Johto Pokemon how that went for them. Still you're pretty impressive looking, and that normal typing helps you have a movepool worth a damn. A lot of grass types would love to have a paralysis move with 100% accuracy. A shame that your different colors don't seem to do anything on the battlefield. On the other hand, knowing the metagamers, this would mean you would be whored out during one season and ignored during the others so maybe you made the right choice there. I won't expect you to be stomping legendaries anytime soon, but please PLEASE don't suck once I start training you.

Froslass

Once upon a time, there was an ice type I didn't care about much at all. Then one day female snorunts evolved into you if exposed to a Dawn stone. Then I fell in love. You're based off a Yuki-onna which is to say you're supposed to be a snow spirit. You're supposed to appear to lost men during a snow storm, this usually ends with said man dead. While this fits your typing, this also means you may or may not be a stone cold *****. It's hard to tell. You're quite appealing regardless, and your abilities suit you well. Snow Cloak for your ability to blend in with the snow, and Cursed Body when you're feeling less than kind. Stat wise, you seem to be mostly a somewhat fast pokemon with no other amazing stats. Apparently you took 10 from your defensive stats and put them into speed. You have the same base stat total as Glalie, yet you are so much better than it can ever be. Feel proud, for you are one of the Pokemon who laughs at those who claim Game Freak "ran out of ideas".



Espeon

Oh man, ever since I laid eyes upon you I loved you. You hit like Alakazam, but can actually take a hit. Not a STRONG hit, but you can usually be counted on to take some damage. Sadly you usually got tossed aside for Zam because your movepool isn't good and you can't heal yourself too well. You seem a lot more interesting though. You're based off mostly a nekomata but also some other types of cat like creatures. Anyway you're one of the Pokemon who introduced both the happiness system(ignoring Pokemon Yellow because it didn't actually DO anything) and the day/night thing. You worked two new things into one and ended up not sucking, great work! You and your counterpart Umbreon are easily my favorite Eeveelutions.

Oddish

I like you Oddish. You always seem happily content even though you're a poor little Pokemon in a world where Grass/Poison has always meant bad news. It makes me sad so many things want to pick on you! Stat wise you're nothing noteworthy, but you're just too adorable without being useless (I'm looking at you Pikachu clones). You're based off a mandrake, which makes me wonder why so many things want to eat you if they could die from it. Still, you're probably too busy off in your own little world to worry about these things when they're not happening. All of your evolutions are pretty nice, though I wonder what inspires Belossom? I have no complaints, but I've always wondered where that came from. Also this.


Ariados

Oh.... well... I'm not too sure what to say about this Pokemon. It's a spider, which wasn't in the first game. It also has a somewhat creepy Pokedex entry for D/P/Pt. A pretty cool design, and a pretty cool cry as well. It seems awfully slow though with a base speed of only 40, yet the Pokealathon gives it a 4 in speed. This confuses me. Anyway, this thing has an interesting move pool, too bad it doesn't really have the stats to use them very well. That's all I can think of, sorry. Ariados is just one of those Pokemon. It isn't "bad", it isn't "good", it's just there. Choose it if you feel like it.

Tropius

Ok I know I give Hoenn a lot of flak, but you're pretty neat. You're a grassy Brontosaurus with giant leaf wings with fruit growing on your neck. Anyone calling you unoriginal are prime candidates to pleasure you in disturbing and illegal ways I won't go into. It's a shame you're mainly an HM slave, even if you can't do too much else, you're too unique to be reduced to such a role. You're also a kind Pokemon since you let hungry kids and Pokemon eat the fruit off your neck. Must be nice having an food supply so close to you, though I imagine the bug Pokemon won't leave you alone. Fun Fact: Venusaur is the exact same size as you. Somehow.


Mismagius

You evolve from one of my favorite Pokemon of all time, why did it take so long for me to warm up to you? Stubbornness perhaps. Anyway, you seem to behave mostly the same, minus the "absorbs fear" part. You're more "witchly" then "banshiee....ly?" that is to say you act a little bit less of a ghost now, not a bad thing by default. You still have trouble proving yourself when it comes to over ghosts though. At least you're better off than Banette, kind of. You have a bit of a goofy smile under that "hat" of yours, so at least you're approachable. As you look into the distance, pondering if you'll ever top that damn Gengar, fearing that you may never on occasion, remember to tell yourself "At least I invented Perish Trapping".

Well Misdreavus did ,but you evolved from it so same thing.

Galvantula

Another spider, and you evolved from that adorable Joltik. You look pretty cool, and you have an unique typing. It seems like electric types wanted to become more exciting in your generation. Besides the bug part though, is there anything that sets you apart from all the other electric types? You have some nice speed, nice attacking stats, and meh defense. Just like any other generic electri-wait, you get compoundeyes? You're telling me that your Thunder is 100% accurate? Unless Emolaga steps up its game, you've got a guaranteed spot on my team once I visit Unova. Seriously, your ability is awesome. Your only real rival is Butterfree, and when was the last time Butterfree was raining down the vengeance of the heavens?




I'm serious, electric spider is awesome.

Arcanine

One of the most beloved Pokemon there is, and for good reason. You look amazing in virtually every game you're in, as well as the few anime episodes. The Pokedex has you listed as a "legendary" pokemon even though you aren't in a literal sense. It's funny though, even though you're known for your "speed" you aren't really super fast. I mean base 95 speed isn't bad, but it doesn't scream "oh my gosh, this outspeeds everything" either. You WERE one of the first to have Extremespeed though.(Which makes me wonder why Rapidash doesn't get it but I'm not here to talk about it yet) You may in fact be a wish fulfilment for people who don't have dogs, because honestly who wouldn't want you for a pet/ride? Cat people probably.

Teddiursa

You're adorable, just plain adorable. Like a baby cub, one can't help but want to hug it. Just like a baby cub, of course, doing so is quite dangerous. While no one (to my knowledge) has been mauled by capturing you, you turn into something that can maul quite a few things if they let you. You're not the fastest, but you can also take a hit and dish one out quite well. Or to be accurate, you evolve into something that does. My only issue is that you don't seem to want to play often. In G/S/C you were only around during the morning. Back in the day, this meant one had to get up between 6 am and 9:59 am (I don't quite remember but the time was quite short). In the remake you're only found during the endgame portion. You're forgiven though since you've at least started to stick around during more reasonable hours, and you have nice abilities.


Cacturne

A good friend of mine likes you, though I personally don't see it. Oh but let me be fair! You're pretty cool looking, and a cactus is rather unique. Let me just say this in the nicest way possible, you're rather disturbing. Your blood is sand somehow, you feed off creatures that has become exhausted from the daytime walk in the desert, and that perma smile on you just looks....uncanny. Still, it all seems to suit you well so I won't begrudge you. You're another slow pokemon who isn't during the pokealthon, so what's up with that? My only other concern is that you're a cactus, yet no pokemon is harmed in battle for making physical contact with you. Why?

Luxray

As a four legged electric type, you have it rough. Jolteon and Raikou are enough competition as it is, but then Manteric had to step in as well. So you have three pokemon you have to be better at than something. Sadly, you have chosen the physical route. Your "strongest" attack is Thunder Fang, making you like Flareon somewhat. Good news is that you've got a better move in Gen 5, bad news is that it's a recoil move. Still, you look pretty damn awesome while having awesome pre-evolutions as well. That's not an easy task these days. Overall you're pretty neat, as long as no one tries to make you their replacement Jolteon. You're trying to do something different than it, somewhat like Ampharos.

Dewott

Oh my, you're an...unique looking Pokemon. I'm digging the "pants" you've got on, very stylish. I think you might be the strongest of the mid evolutions, that Razor Shell attack looks way too strong for something before it even hits level 20. Your whole move set looks nice actually. I'm not sure what else to say. Maybe we'll spend some time together if I don't decide on Tepig. Oh! I will say you're the first water type starter to ever tempt me from straying from the fire path, so that's something. Hmm.. I just realized that you have higher sp.attack, so you're a reverse Totodile(or Croconaw in this case).

Thank you GenesisSaga =)


Suicune

Oh Suicune, what fun we had together! I remember the first time playing Pokemon Crystal, and it was amazing. You really made the "extra edition" stand out. You expanded the story on you and your other two brothers, as well as Ho-oh. You also gave legendary pokemon their own theme song!
You also opted not to run in Crystal, instead you would have a wonderful duel with the player once they proved themselves. You truly are a legendary Pokemon! If I have any complaints about you, it's that you don't seem to live up to the whole "north wind" thing. You learn what, one or two air moves? Three if you count the event move Air Slash. You do have that "flowing hair" thing going for you at least. Stay awesome, Suicune.


Delibird

At first, I thought you were a neat Pokemon but ultimately a novelty Pokemon. You have this Santa thing going for you, which is awesome, and you're the only one to naturally learn Present. You can even learn Fly despite the fact that you're a penguin! Thing is though, you don't seem to DO all that much in battle. Your highest attacking stat has a base of 65, and you learn very little on you own. Then I saw your reign as King Delibird thanks to Silver_Ermine. At first I saw you struggle against a mere Natu, and it was bad. Later, I saw you take down things much stronger than you, and it was good. I was cheering you on. So what do I think of you now? Well.... yeah you're still a novelty Pokemon, sorry. You're one worth using though, and not just on December.


Mewtwo

I bet you wish Gen 1 was the only one. Back then, you were a god. Now you're not quite that anymore. In gen two, dark and steel types were introduced to give you trouble (even though both are weak to Submission), and your special got split so you no longer take as good as you give(and you give so much). Later on you've had to deal with more and more legendaries, some of them surpassing you in raw damage. Still though, not all is lost. You're still very dangerous, you still look impressive, and your popularity isn't going to die anytime soon. The mighty may have fallen, but that doesn't mean you still can't kick the ass of any doubters.

Beedrill

I.... don't know about you Beedrill. How has life been treating you these days? More and more early bug pokemon appear each gen, and you keep being less and less on top. Though were you ever picked over Butterfree more? Sure you're scary, most bees are, but then we got Combee and its evolution. Your Twinneedle was the only attack that could poison the poison and steel types, but that got "fixed" in gen three. You seem to be another one of those Pokemon that are "just there", if only because everyone else took away all the things you used to to. Do you even get to call "chasing Ash and company through every other forest" yours anymore?

Looks like I'm on page two now(Yes I know "lol 10 post per page")! Also sorry this is late... I crashed and woke up a hell of a lot later than expected.



Swampert

I find Quagsire to be more charming than you, but you are the first truly "good" water starter technically. Blastoise isn't "bad", and Feraligatr couldn't do much until gen four. Water/Ground is a pretty good type combination when grass isn't in play. You've got some pretty nice stats, nothing outright terrible except maybe your sp.attack. Like the starter before your gen that made your primary type a bit pointless, but luckily you still get Earthquake. Even better you get physical water moves now! The only problem is that you came in when water types decided to become locust. Hell Whiscash has the same typing as you so can't even claim you're "totally unique" in your generation. Still, out of all the water types I grown sick of seeing, you were one of the ones I never got tired out (Because I always pick the fire starter anyway).

Growlithe

You're such a lovable Pokemon! Friendly, loyal, and evolve into something badass. Even if you didn't, you're willing to kick ass for your trainer if you have to. Your Japanese name appears to be "Gardie" which is quite fitting(if it's supposed to mean "guard"). It's no wonder you're favored as a pet! Giving a small child a fire breathing puppy raises would normally raise some concerns, but this is Pokemon after all. You're a bit annoying to catch, what with your tendency to use Roar. Something Vulpix likes to do as well. Speaking of which, you two don't seem to ever want to play together. If you're in one game, Vulpix isn't. There might be an exception in Yellow. The only thing I don't get about you is how and why you suddenly started learning Reversal by level up.

Ho-Oh

You're quite the special pokemon. You were the first legendary Pokemon seen, as well as the first 2nd gen Pokemon seen in the 1st season. Like Lugia you have "control" over a legendary trio, but you apparently also have the rare ability to revive the fallen. Doesn't that make you a god of some sort? That said, you seem to cameo a lot more than actually star in things. You have Gold/Heart Gold but that's about it. You fly above Ash ever now and then to motivate him, and that's it. No movie or anything. There was also Pokemon Colosseum but even then you show up for roughly 10 seconds. For the player to see you again they have to go through the annoying Mt.Battle. You didn't even get on the cover for some ****ing reason! I mean sure the legendary trio of Johto, but what the **** was Groudon and Kyorge doing there?! You need to start lighting some asses up Ho-Oh, you deserve better than this!

Groudon

Another legendary that gets a bum rap, except it gets worse. Besides some minor cameos(half of which were fakes), you only got two anime episodes in your honor. Except the fight vs Kyorge was a terrible mess that was just too terrible to be considered a real fight. Hell all the stock footage of Hyper Beams....ughh. Well at least you have Pokemon Ruby, making you one of the first two legendary pokemon the player HAS to deal with. You're pretty intimidating, not only with your appearance, but with the whole world being fried if no one had stopped you. With that said, it seems you're terribly outmatched against Kyorge. I guess that makes some sense considering the majority of the Earth is water. Come to think of it, Rayquaza also gets taken out by Kyorge easily and it's supposed to govern over you two. Such an awkward little circle you three make... At least you have the most badass name! (Don of the land)

Gen four had a lot of legendary Pokemon, but you're one of the more impressive looking. Fire/Steel also ended up being a pretty damn awesome type combination. Three weaknesses(one of them being a quad weakness) two immunities(one if you don't have Flash Fire) and a staggering TEN resistances(four of them being quad resistance)! You have the stats to take hits as well, and dish them out. You even have a nifty signature move in Magma Storm which seems to be a Fire Blast that trades a bit of accuracy and burn potential(I think) for trapping + damage for several turns. You're the only legendary that can be either male or female though like with the Lati siblings this serves you little purpose with your inability to breed. Still, when someone badmouths gen four stating "They've run out of ideas!" or "The legends in this game sucks!" you can proudly step in and roar "LOL no".

Victini

When I first saw you over on Bulbapedia, I think I had a pyrogasm*! You look pretty sweet, much more appealing than most "Mew clones"(aka a small event legendary with 100 base in every stat). Just looking at you puts me in the mood to battle! You also learn some amazing attacks. Searing Shot which does a lot of damage without a downside(excluding pp) and V-create which has 180 Power to it! It lowers speed and both defense(as well as damage allies if they're on the field), making this show the true intensity of fire, a powerful destructive force! I have no idea how useful you actually are in battle, and I missed the first chance to get you on April 10th. Hopefully I'll get to see you one day once I get a gen 5 game, you look way too fun to pass up!

Volcarona

I've always wanted an amusing fire type combination, and while you are not Fire/Water, Fire/Bug is quite the unique type. You're one of the Pokemon that introduces an unfortunate theme of taking forever to evolve. I mean 59, seriously? That's longer than Dragonite, and you aren't a pseudo-legendary! You do learn some interesting moves though. Quiver Dance(which should of been kept as Butterfly Dance but whatever) is a superior Dragon Dance(funny isn't it?), as well as Fiery Dance which has a 50% chance of raising your Sp.attack. Too bad you learn that at level 100. Overall I'm not too certain about you. You're a moth with a bit of a "flowery" look to you. You don't look too appealing, and you seem a lot like those "post-elite four" types than a Pokemon I'd want in my main party(I've never had a Pokemon get to 59 pre-E4). Still, you seem rather powerful. Hopefully there won't be too many rocks around. You would of been terrible one gen earlier.


Reshiram

Well I plan on getting Pokemon Black so I may as well get to know you better. You're the type people wanted Charizard to be, though a dragon as a starter would be broken in so many ways. I gotta say though, you don't look much like either type. Those wings make you look like a flying type and those patches of fur...I'm not sure what's up with that. Those spiral things around your neck and tail make you look a bit of a steel type. Your attacks are pretty nice though. Fusion Flare being pretty powerful, though powers up alongside your counterpart. That makes you a bit like Plusle and Minun, except good which means you really aren't lik them at all. I'm also a fan of Blue Flare, because fire is supposed to be blue when it's very very hot right(Someone correct me on this if necessary)? Finally, you're the only fire type not weak to water, and can laugh at Flash Fire. Overall you're pretty cool, if a bit odd.



*An overwhelming amount of joy over Fire Pokemon getting something amazing.

Stunfisk

I um... I'm at a loss for words. You're quite confusing. You look like water type, but you're neither. You're part electric, but a damn slow one as well. You also can be taught unexpected things such as Sludge Bomb and Pain Split. My biggest question however is, What do you do? Your stats and movepool don't seem to indicate anything obvious. Unova has some odd pokemon, and you're one of the top ones in that regard. I'm sorry, I just don't know what to say. All of this could easily be summed up in one word. "What".


Psyduck


You have my condolences, for I know how unpleasant constant headaches can be. I don't have your type of headache of course... Anyway, you seem like a fairly relaxed Pokemon when the headache isn't at its max. Did you find out a way to remain calm under normal situations, or maybe you head is in the clouds to prevent some of the pain... If there's one thing I really don't get about you(and Golduck), it's your abilities. Cloud Nine and Damp, where did those come from? Especially in the case of Cloud Nine, being able to nullify the weather like that. Perhaps you know more then you're letting on.

Quagsire

Who else but Quagsire? ...Well Swampert, but you rocked out Water/Ground first! You're also much more appealing. You, like many others, seem to always have a "relaxed" look on your face. Others would call it a dumb look, but I think that's a little unfair. Honestly, my only issue with you is that you seem to like learning special moves when your physical attack is superior, and even then you have the decency to learn Earthquake, and at a fairly early level too! Once gen four kicked in, Waterfall/Dive gave you the physical water you needed. Of course in the end you're more of a tankish pokemon, shame your sp.def isn't good at all. Finally, your name means you're the lord of water infused earth. All water/ground types must bow before you! Couldn't have happened to a better Pokemon.


Masquerain

Alright, we need to talk. First of all, you're not scary. You're just odd looking. Intimidate just doesn't suit you too well. Second, and this is most important, WHY THE HELL ARE YOU BUG/FLYING?! Seriously, we have enough of that type already. Only a few of them are good in a fight, and you're not one of them. The worst thing about it is that Surskit was a damn unique pokemon. Water/Bug was quite interesting, why couldn't you have stayed that way? Water/Bug with levitate would of made you far more appealing. As it stands, you do nothing the others haven't done before. Well ok to be fair, you can give rock/ground types a surprise with water/ice attacks. With your mediocre speed however, the incoming Rock Slide will likely strike first. Really should of stayed Water/Bug I'm sorry.


Hippowdon


So um... while both of your current abilities suits you, don't you think you should get Intimidate? I know my first thoughts when I saw you at the elite four were "Holy Crap!". It was for good reason, you're a damn good ground type. You can take hits, you can hit hard, and you look pretty neat too. Tell Bertha that Fissure is for lamers though, because it is. One neat thing about you is that you somewhat introduced gender differences between Pokemon (Yes the Nidos did it first, but you're a part as well). One thing that freaks me out though, there's sand leaking out your back? ...Seriously, the **** don't you have Intimidate? Freaking Gengar looks less scary, and I know what it can do!
