Gosh, that thing's ugly! I am gradually losing faith in these games.

It's kinda cute, but it just doesn't strike me as a Pokemon.

A lot of the new pokemon from the third generation and onward don't really strike me as pokemon. They resemble some of the cracked up cheese that I draw when I'm bored.

Mayhaps the developers were going through my sketchbook for ideas...

Quick Edit: Since when does the filter replace s*** for cheese? Har.

No news about the games but i feel like it's worth to share.

According to the Pokémon Company, Pokémon Black and White broke the record for fastest selling Pokémon game. The game broke the 1.05 million pre-order mark making it the fastest pre-ordered DS game in history. 1.5 million pre-orders are expected by the game's release on September 18.

It needs another 1.0 Million to beat MW2's record. (Although I think MW2's record included all consoles.. which isn't fair.)

Go beat MW2 B/W!

No offense, but that thing's ugly. I don't want it to exist, simply for the reason that I'd hate something that ugly on the box of a Pokemon GS game.

Also, Black and White come on next month Lemon.

I WANT TO BELIEVE

I actually just like the idea of Pokemon: Jade. It has a nice ring to it.

Yipes! Already? Looking forward to seeing the complete list of the new pokemon/moves/places/dicks that this installment has. Will I rage? Will I be amazed? Oh I can hardly wait.

I'd guess mostly rage. From what I've seen, there aren't many good Pokemon. As for me, I'm gonna try to stay as spoiler-free as possible until the US version comes out. Which will be very, very tough. icon_razz.gif

I think I like enough of them for a 6 pokemon party, at least. Particularly the deer and the new rock-type, and there's enough psychic types to go around... too many, in fact. Thank God, no more geodudes and zubats, though.

I really wish they'd base more off of ancient religions. The Chinese fire ape thing looks awesome. A flying snake based of Quetzalcoatl would be sweet, a Shiva based one would be great, etc.

While creating things that look like rejects from Sunday Morning cartoons is barely tolerable (at most), I think the best Pokemon are those based off of a mixture of real life animals and ancient lore.

That reminds me of the thing from that animé movie Princess Monoke.

I'd love to see an Ifrit, Leviathan, and Asura based Pokémon. They'd certainly be powerful.

Now that I think about it, the series already has a ton of nods to Final Fantasy...

Why are people complaining about the pokemon looking ugly? Have you SEEN the Gen 1 pokemon sprites? Generation 1 has horrible pokemon design, the only reason we like them is nostalgia.

IPB Image "u mad?"

Yeah, Gen V has pretty bad pokemon, but so did Gen I.
