Pokemon!

[Senna-Umbreon]

WELL I AM HAPPY

So in Pokemon Black I'm derping around on the GTS.. And I see a lvl 1 female Shiny Absol. And the person wants a.. lvl 60+ Accelgor? HELL YES A REASONABLE OFFER!! I zoom off to find an Accelgor.. I find no lvl 60+ ones I can get, but there IS a lvl 53 that's up for a lvl 60+ Amoongus. Yet ANOTHER reasonable trade. I go off to find one.. I can only find a lvl 52 one, though. But it's up for a Simisear! I have one! (Though I will kinda miss Lily.. I had her on my team for quite a while. Aw well..) So I get the Amoongus, make a crazy dash to get her to lvl 60, go trade her for the Accelgor.. Make a mad dash to get HER to lvl 60... And.... Trade her for the Absol.

I NOW HAVE A FEMALE SHINY ABSOL. IT MAKES ME HAPPY. EVEN IF SHE ALREADY HAS A NAME WHICH MEANS IT CAN'T BE A DELORA. IT'S STILL A SHINY ABSOL. THAT HAS SUPER LUCK. OH GOD THIS IS AMAZING.

The Absol's name is Daichi, by the way~

Update: STILL looking for female DW Poliwag....why do they hate me so....

Pokemon of the week:

This week is ROTOM WEEK!

Each day a new form of Rotom will be reviewed (formerly, you'd lump all the alternate forms in one review as they were exactly the same aside from signature move. 5th gen replaced their Ghost type with the one that matches the move now)

Today's Rotom form: Normal Rotom: ((Acceptable stats, good movepool, and a Unique type combo are some plusses. Platinum gave him the alternate forms that had the same type combo but better stats and a powerful move, which made the normal form pretty pointless. Now, Rotom has his niche as the only Electric/Ghost again. http://www.serebii.net/potw-bw/479.shtml ))

[Lupis]

I might be getting a 3DS for my birthday, which means I'll finally get a new Pokemon game! Wewt!

[Azunara]

Lupis. Get Soul Silver. Yes. Yes. It's my favorite. Forget Black and White, SS is THE BEST.

Plus, you get Johto AND Kanto stuff. It's like two games in one! Plus, EEVEES. *bounces around, obviously excited about SS*

[rubybeam]

turns out that whoever voiced dawns bunery in the sub version of pokemon recently died, of course im only effected by the fact that she voiced a different character from one of my favorite animes, Keroro gunshou (Though it said stg.frog so I think its the dub version)

[Magnakilro]

Update: Poliwag...why must you hate me so?


Rotom of the day (Yesterday): Mower ((third most popular form. Gains Leaf Storm as signature move. Electric/Grass type. http://serebii.net/potw-bw/479mow.shtml))

Rotom of the day (Today): Heater: Considered the best of the forms. Sheds its 4x Ground weakness with Levitate. Gains Overheat. Electric/Fire type. http://serebii.net/potw-bw/479heat.shtml

[rubybeam]

wasn't poliwag the one that hated you on the pokemon meme to?

[Magnakilro]

nah...Poliwrath was apparently a bedtime pokemon

[rubybeam]

oh dear heck now Im sensing thomestuck trolls relationships with magna and the poliwrath. me and my dirty mind~

also you really dont want me to explain it

[Magnakilro]

Update: Crying...raging...about a certain tadpole.

Rotom of the day (Wednesday): Fan ((One of the worst of the bunch. Signature move not all that great, ability is useless....yeah. http://serebii.net/potw-bw/479fan.shtml))

Rotom of the day (Today): Fridge ((Tied with Fan as the worst. Got Blizzard as signature move. Gets amazing neutral coverage with its STABS..Ice and Electric....but can't really make good use of that trait due to Blizzard's inaccuracy outside Hail))

Im just going to post various theorys about the pokemon world here for the heck of it.

First of all, sense in the pokerp we know deoxys is a male, or is he?.
I'm assuming because legendarys are gods they can change their gender to whatever they prefer, hence why their genderless, and why deoxys was able to breed with delora, because he choose a male form (Of course this is my theory and im not saying its that way)

Secondly, theres ALOT of hybrids. I'm thinking either
A. Arceus allowed true pokemon lovers to be able to breed with each other, even in they cant and make offspring with parts their parents have
B. Theres actually a legendary hidden somewhere thats allows true lovers to make this possible

Also why is fossil pokemon always rock type?
I'm thinking that to help remake their bodies they just copy the rock that the fossils found in (Notice that the fossil's always surrounded by rock?), and use it for the pokemons flesh

[Senna-Umbreon]

Okay, I just noticed something odd in my games.. I seem to gravitate towards the male Legendaries in my games. There's three Legendaries that kinda prove this.

Latios: I have Ruby, SoulSilver and Emerald. In both Ruby and SoulSilver, Latios is the Lati that is naturally found, and in Emerald, I ended up choosing Latios out of the Latis.

Groudon: (What? It looks male to me!) Again, I have Ruby and SoulSilver, which Groudon is the exclusive of. And in Emerald? It's the only of its trio that I caught. Why? ... I accidentally killed Kyogre and couldn't even get to Rayquaza XD

And.. Reshiram: This one is obvious. .. To me, that is. As I've mentioned before.. Due to Yin and Yang, Reshiram, while feminine looking.. Is male. And I have Pokemon Black.


... And then there's the fact that my four favourite Legendary characters that I have are all male. WHAT IS WITH ME AND MALE LEGENDARIES. AGHHHHHHHHHHHHH *Flails*

[rubybeam]

you know groundon could always be just a really macho female.....

[Senna-Umbreon]

Very true, but I've just always seen it as male for some reason XD;;

[Slapperfish]

(deleted)

[rubybeam]

thats a good theory, im still going to stick with my stone flesh one though

EDIT: Senna I blame magna for his male groundon in WoD!

I've read that most legendaries are not technically "Gods", but rather extremely powerful, rarely found pokemon. Granted, there are a few that are exceptions, such as Arceus and those fellows, but as far as I'm aware, legendary pokemon are just that, legends. Sure they exist, but most of the myths about them aren't necessarily true. Case in point, the legendary birds. It's been shown in the anime that there are multiple Lugias, as well as the three birds. There is also likely multiple Suicune and Raikou, and possibly Entai, but it's possible it's the same ones in the several movies/episodes showing them.

The reason they are genderless in game is so people cannot breed and make many of the most powerful pokemon in the games legally.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Eh, my thoughts on Legendaries is that..

They can breed, hence there can be more of them, but there's always the.. Erm, "main" individual of the species. Like.. The Groudon from WoD. I imagine there being at least a few more of the species in the world, but that one was the main one, hence why a new little baby Groudon was born after he died. The main individual of a species is the one that keeps whatever the particular species keeps in balance, well.. In balance. Or they're the particular ones from the myths about their species. Like.. For example, Raikou. There's obviously more than one, at least in the RP we have on the forums, but there's one particular one who was the Raikou from the myths.. The one that died when the Brass Tower in Ecruteak burned down. (In my canon, my Beast trio are those particular beasts. Not because I wanted them to be oh-so-special.. It's just, the way they came into existence as characters, they were those beasts, and it just kinda stuck. I kinda like that they're the Beasts from the myths. It makes them interesting characters to have.)

As for all the breeding stuff.. I just throw egg groups and all that crap out the window. Whoo for couples that make no sense! And whoo for awesome hybrids!

(Hope my ramble about Legendaries made sense.. My opinion on them is kinda confusing >.<;;)
