<p><p><p><p><p><p>I still think Froakie will be specially based, due to bubbles, hence differentiating itself from Toxicroak. It ought to be faster than it too. It will be more balanced out than usual Pokemon of that kind... like the elemental monkeys, who are super boring. Froakie wants Acid Armor or something... which makes it invisible. Imagine that it learns Double Team or something naturally, Agility, anything speed based... but now that I look at it, Infernape had almost low defences (76/71/71), but still survived stuff when un-STABBed, which was annoying. And it's not even THAT low. I'm imaginging Froakie has something similar, but probably less in Attack. Something a bit like Samurott's perhaps... except those attack stats could shift to speed or something, and more changes in its defences, HP and other stats provided as irrelevant.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Just wait. Fighters > metagame.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>"Step father"... hm, that might be why. And yes, that's ridiculous. People from the outside who stole your things and starts threatening you and all? This stuff runs deeper than I have thought.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I don't particularly have good relations with some of my family members either, and it is painful because they are indeed biological family, and I have little idea how to communicate with them... and I see some as selfish. My mother, although good-intentioned, is domineering and doesn't even realise it. It makes developing men like me have a hard time developing traits that I need, and makes my father lazier and lazier because he doesn't know what to do. It's such dire times really... and from what I see, it has become the norms, particularly in the western society of modern times.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I know they love me and all... but it's very hard right now. I've grown cold... somewhat.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>So I've managed to get up to level 60s in Black version, caught Tornadus and Kyurem, beat Cynthia with just Reshiram... all I have left to do is to fight the League the 2nd time, beat all the lines in Battle Subways that I can, explore Undella Bay (which I don't want to), collect all TMs (which requires Battle Subway), collect all Pokemon (never ever), and recruit people from White Forest to convince them why Black City is better (I WILL NEVER DO THIS IT IS SACRILEGE!!!!!)</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I need some White Pokemon, like Thundurus to get a Landorus... and some other things.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Most of the time, Water Pokemon turn out with balanced stats (which means low speed and medium high everything else). I see this thing as high Special Attack, like Empoleon, due to its concentration on Bubbles. I'm unsure about its defences: Samurott's defences are balanced, but aren't actually as high as its predecessors due to its speed being raised than normal (although Blastoise and Feraligatr still outspeed it). I'm afraid its defences MIGHT be akin to Starmie's (who gets KOd from uninvested Tyranitar's Crunch... seriously) or Floatzel's... or worse... Sharpedo's. At least it isn't going to be Deoxys, who even makes Sharpedo proud of its defences.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I see high defences for Grass guy, which unfortunately won't work too well with any of its typing, Fire guy seems speed/Special Attack guy. Polarisation. I like this. It had better not learn Leech Seed by breeding like a certain starter dinosaur <img src="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/unsure.png" alt=":/" srcset="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/unsure@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" /></p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Torterra is actually probably the best Pokemon to use in-game, much like how Blastoise is the best in RGB but isn't competitively as apt as the other two in those games. Torterra learns a whole bunch of moves most Grass Pokemon need to breed to get, such as Leech Seed, Crunch, Synthesis, Wood Hammer, Leaf Storm... and the coveted Earthquake as soon as it evolves! Infernape is stuck with a wimpy Flame Wheel and must wait tons of levels until it gets Flare Blitz, and even that isn't so great in-game due to recoil and stuff (I had trouble using Arcanine due to its tendency to recoil).</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>It's going to be Grass/Fighting, Fire/Fighting and Water/Fighting. We all know this. Stop denying the Fighting subtype. We also know it's super effective against Fairy and will be changed to affect Ghost types as well. And all Fighting Pokemon will receive an automatic + 6 speed when fighting against their type disadvantage.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Ick. Sorry it seems like you've experienced a mouthful. What do you do these days when families being broken are the norms rather than the exception? It's more than enough proof to see that we are at the end times... only because this kind of stuff is on a global scale, and not isolated to a society doomed to fall, like the Roman Empire. Too bad many of us feel like we were born in the wrong time period, but it should be dealt with. </p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I also do like Germany, except for their open embracing of "higher education", which is one of the primary component of modern society. Their military, particularly Prussia due to their history with the Teutonic Knights, is inspiring. France embraced secularism first though, which makes me mourn for its old pinnacle of culture even more than I should. They were the most powerful of Europe... until 1870 where Prussia creamed France and established the German Empire.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>They did try the triangle of having the starters being advantageous towards each other, except it ended up miserably where the other two can destroy Empoleon, while Empoleon's natural moves were horrible, and Infernape just trumped the other two ONLY by perfectly aligned stats and incredible movepool. Empoleon can learn Ice Beam, but it relies on TM to beat Torterra. Otherwise Torterra wins. The three are the best starters that the generations had to offer, however. Swampert and Feraligatr arguably trumps over Empoleon however, and DW Venusaur trumps Torterra now, but yeah. They had competitive in mind then, but seriously... I think just LOOKING at their stats you can tell who offers the most. Seriously, one look is all. They clearly didn't test the balance out enough.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>You know, a rumour did say "oops I meant Water becomes Dark and Grass becomes Fighting"...</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Ick, that means Water will COMPLETELY lose out to Grass. And Fire will COMPLETELY lose out to Water... that is, unless Fire becomes Fighting, which I KNOW you will absolutely love. We already have Sharpedo and Crawdaunt (and also Cacturne and Shiftry). Mmm... I want it to be Grass/Fire, Fire/Water, Water/Grass... and you know how confusing that will be. Joking about last part: never should that EVER happen.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I have intense hatred for American imperialism... that's why. It shows in me, and I shouldn't be political about it, but man. I mean, I'd be okay if they kept their own "awesome culture" to themselves instead of imposing it on the rest of the world. You know, democracy being gold standard, etc? Living in Korea made me rather sick of it. So yeah, if that shows a lot, whoops. But that's how I am. And I'm too francophilic. Idk why.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Eh? I'm confused. I don't think I was disrespecting your opinion or anything. Did I act high and mighty or something? Again, very confused. I know I'm stubborn, it's a natural part of me and I refuse to let go of ideas that are usually firmly established in my mind. Conclusive? Define that, because I can come to conclusions, and I say that's conclusive.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Honestly though, sometimes it's best off not to be completely open minded. That just means you haven't found an identity for yourself.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Though I like their art style and some other stuff about it, I have slight reservations. I do like it generally, as the combination of slice-of-life and magical moments makes nothing short of awe inspiring.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Take that cat bus to Korea: just wait by the forest while raining with your friendly neighbour. It will get there.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>The guy in the shop even says the whole place is ran by greed... >_<</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I hate this place: I want out!</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Personally, Grass/Fighting has been used just a few times, just like Water/Fighting, on one regular Pokemon and one legendary. The one regular Pokemon happens to be very overpowered, so unless Chespin gains something better than Technician in Hidden Ability, a better movepool, a 100% accurate sleep move, etc, there's little to no chance Chespin would gain much advantage in the fan based metagame, unfortunately. It can still be a fan favourite, but what happens if it becomes a Dark type Black Knight Pokemon? That'd be kind of scary, considering a protagonist Pokemon becoming Dark typed... yikes.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>No, I don't care if it's not entirely French. In fact, I never said it was. Just like how Unova isn't entirely New York. You don't think I know that? Where would you find a panda in France asides from a zoo? In spite of that, it bugs me still. I like Plasma due to story and their Knight-like infrastructure.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>So I'm a bad influence to you. Okay <img src="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/wacko.png" alt=":S" srcset="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/wacko@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" /></p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I like their animation too: I'm just not a fan of the animation stuff nowadays that the whole franchise of it turns me off, but animation and innocent style they have... I do like. Yes.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Come to South Korea and I'll show you the definition of monotony. And I thought North Korea was communist... maybe I'm wrong.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Just realised I'm playing Black version............... and so I have Black City, not White Forest. I'm the other type: I don't like cities. Sometimes beautiful, but Black City is the perfect stereotypical representation of city folks. ACK. Okay, I hope to get White 2 sometime soon just so I can get the better Opelucid City and a natural area. And what's trolling? White version (White 1, not 2) has all these wild Pokemon you cannot get in Black. <img src="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/unsure.png" alt=":/" srcset="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/unsure@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" /></p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I understand, and I do agree Fire should be the offensive typing... I mean out of the three typing, it's obvious Fire should be the most dangerous one. Like Water would hurt when in high pressure and trees are lethal when they crash on you, but it's situational, you see: Fire always kills... and goes out when not fed by oxygen.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Yeah, I know you would like Team Flare. They just... ick on me because it doesn't seem French but more American or something. But I can't expect any less from people with modernistic styles with abstract meanings of little to no value. But yeah, I should see how they turn out. But yes, DPP... first to integrate personalities and all for their Gym Leaders, actually. It failed miserably for me... and even Lance was more personable than they were... but that's because Lance the infiltrator was cool. Cynthia is just "oh you're a trainer... cool"... and ended up being the champion... of feminism. Heh. DP and its American geek culture: what could you do?</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I love trains, particularly 1800s style. Studio Ghibli makes almost anything look nice. I used to watch many old Korean dramas and it's always about departure and going away and the guy headed off to war on a train while the girl waves goodbye kind of stuff. I'm a sucker for those... I love trains. But modern day trains aren't as charming. What a crying shame. If I had the power to, I'd definitely commission making things look nice and actually practical. I don't care what your excuse is, modern society, dull rectangular buildings and easy-to-stack anything don't make attractive living styles!</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I have other pictures, but I'm too lazy to upload.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Yeah, a bit of sarcasm, as the 111 was a reference to Empoleon and his Special Attack stat that never seems to be surpassed but it's only 2 above Charizard and Typhlosion and 1 over Blaziken's (which has too much attack). Infernape doesn't have anything over 108, actually. Sceptile, as I pointed out, has 120 Speed, Emboar has 123 (lol 123) Attack. Notice how they're so biased with Fire types being powerful... and they're all very powerful. Ugh. Swampert has highest BST of starters, but they're a bit lopsided. They cannot overpower starters after all but they can to a certain minor dragon because they can.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I know: it was a comment to Fairy being neutral to itself: I wouldn't think it'd be SE against itself anyways.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Team Flare is silly. End of story. They tried the dialogue stuff in DP to make Gym Leaders have personality, but miraculously the game ended up more boring than any other game. We all know Ash is their boss though.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I wouldn't think Fairy would be SE against itself. Please be weak to something other than Steel and Poison... please?</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I saw a German demo and Mega Mewtwo used Spukball (Shadow Ball/Spook Ball), not Donnerblitz (Thunderbolt), vs Dragonite. Shadow Ball is such a weak move (80 BP) without STAB, and even with STAB it can have issues. That Shadow Ball did so weak damage... but Psystrike put a stopped to Dragonite.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Unfortunately nothing to do in Anville Town... I wonder what it is based off. If that was in real life New York, I'd spend all my time in place like that. Unfortunately, the trainyards there are dirty. A picture I took... for example</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I like trains. A lot.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I like samurais better than ninjas. I do like frogs, but I'm so unsure about ninja frogs. I would not mind a shogun frog though... I have a feeling it will be a fast water, but Floatzel/Starmie are probably still faster because they never give anything over 111 to starters... except Sceptile and his unusual 120 speed.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>The fruity-tooty villains make me mad. The Poke-amie effects also make me question the viability of the metagame. I don't think I like random Focus Sash and Evasion mode all over the game. It'd be nice in-game, but in competitive, that makes a lot of things luck based. Don't even get me started on the critical hits... oh dear Lord. I'm imagining everyone throwing a random move and it will always land a critical on me or something. And paralysis healing... ick.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Some demo person confirms Fairy is neutral to Grass, Water, Normal, and even Fairy itself. But interestingly, a video with Fairy Wind targetting Exeggutor (Grass/Psychic) did NEUTRAL, meaning Psychic is neutral to Fairy now. Puts a stopper to the rumour where it says Fairy is NVE vs Fire and Psychic. The Fire part is true, but Psychic now isn't. Interesting, but somewhat unfortunate. Hopefully it means Ghost and Ice can resist it though.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Also random theory going around... again JUST A THEORY:</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Chespin... European knight? AWESOME. Don't make Froakie Japanese again (Samurott was Japanese) .____.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>If true, they're doing the same Unova recycling with Grass being European, Fire being Chinese and Water being Japanese. Japanese my mortal enemy!</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p></div></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p></div></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Because Power Anklet helps transfer speed IV to offspring 50% of the time: let it hold it while breeding.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Let it hold Power... whichever one raises speed EV gain and keep breeding it until you get a Drilbur with some nice Speed stat with Jolly or Adamant nature (preferably Jolly, but Adamant is fine), and with Sand Rush (not Sand Power). If you EV train something with high Attack and max Speed, you have a beast in your hands.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Yeah, I'll just leave it at that. BW series did disappoint me in the beginning... and it still kind of does.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I do need somebody fast, as my fastest is a Jolly natured Krookodile, and I would like an electric, but I already have Reshiram: I beat the game. Heh.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Team so far: Reshiram, Krookodile, Vanilluxe, Chandelure, Lilligant, Samurott... I may get other Pokemon eventually, but right now, it seems Unova exclusive.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I actually didn't buy that much X items: I only did for the beginning for that crazy STAB Take Down Herdier and Watchog... and Burgh and his Leavanny troubles (he messed me up because WHIRLIPEDE who kept poisoning my Dewott was first... and using Fury Cutter on that is unwise.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I just like Anville Town for its quietness and stuff. And trains. Too bad I can't fly there <img src="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/unsure.png" alt=":/" srcset="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/unsure@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" /></p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Post game stuff... like the East half of Unova, the level 70 + Pokemon league, National Dex, etc...</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Wow that Drilbur and its IVs. It must be bred for better Drilburs with better nature... that speed is savory.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Just finished Black part 1: now onto extras.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Because Ice Cream wins.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>I reset for Cobalion three times... the first two times... I fainted it by accident with a single Surf from Samurott (crazy I know!) and the second time with Chandelure's Flame Burst. Whoops. Third time it only took one Dusk Ball + Lilligant's sleep. This game's boring: B2W2 made that part better. I do know that sentiment of "rinse and repeat" that's boring and tiresome... but what can you do? Meh.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Archen can't Fly. Are you serious??</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Krookodile, Chandelure, Lilligant, Vanillish, Samurott, Fly mule. Who to get for sixth Pokemon? I'm certainly lacking an Electric Pokemon, but then again I never cared for one.</p></p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p><p>Seven gym badges. Just one more and then the League.
