Maelstrom

Happy Birthday! I shall visit the stripclub today in your honor and not because we were going to anyways! ;P

Rumor- Ame is troll.

Curse you, entry hazards!!!! But it does check all the counter-swapping that used the plague battles. How much did you pump up your urgamosu?

Flying ground... is immune to elec, right? flying ground>flying elec despite these guys making no sense. elemental genies from nowhere.

Emoland. By coincidence it is completely devoid of personality as well. Hmm...

Rules are for people who can't be trusted to do the right thing without them... wait, yeah, rules are for Reborn.

mudkip i wouldn't even touch. duh.

Duru?

yeah... i've little exp with DnD. i read one book about classes and stuff and.... yeah my friends did and i played more Brawl. Sorry.

ok, hydra. sure. tiamat though? don't think so... And cerberus is a dog, but yeah, i see what you mean, but still no. =D

First two, awesome. Other two... I'd sell off.

yeah... I wish those could be erased from history... anyways... That 3 headed dragon? Well, see king gidorah and the legendary Orochimaru, multiple headed dragons of legends and stuff. The only thing we have that's multiheaded is the chimera, and absol is not that particular depiction of the same beast. Now there's also emonga, the momonga. clever, right? >.> first time i heard of this flying squirrel thing was on a yugioh card. yep.... erase from history... /wish

yep. I think I may have put that on a torkoal in my all torkoal team. xD However he seems too slow and vulnerable to most of the guys who sit around and boost up. *looks at vaporeon, and loads of dragons with surf/waterfall/Earthquake* Just saying, it'd be nice to switch and reset their stats before they can hit with 'em. Gengar maybe...

What is Ziz? Might it not be referencing that aztez or mayan snake god? called uh... quetzlquatl. yeah, that's it.

What pokemon learn that poison move that cancels out stat changes besides Shandera?? My initial less-than-pro build for shandera was Overheat then that move. >.< Is there anyone that learns it and can make better use of it?

Curious... how many times have you killed a ditto after it has copied a set-up sweeper? Sure you might switch in something resistant to whatever scarfed move it's using (immune, if lucky). Then it still hits you pretty hard since it's set up, if not KOing outright anyways. That or it switches out to copy some other pokemon that may happen to know something it itself is weak to, or high flinch probability.

Got a lot of close battles with me doing something stupid or not paying attention than I do massive wins. But this one... had me sitting here scratching my head. Maybe he couldn't read the names in english or something? something wierd in the EV's??? I dunno. [color="red"]tldr vvv : Blastoise takes out 4 pokemon in a row.

Does sudowoodo look like any tree you've ever seen? Wobbufet? wobbu...wtf Pineco is pineco... but wtf is forretress. Gligar? Heracross and pinsir... cuz they have these beetles and we don't, and they're apparently fun to bet on. swinub- what kind of pig looks like that? And then they have those mole-pigs in Gurren-Laggan that look the same. BlaziChicken- ??? Shiftry- is not evil pinocchio. It has something to do with something called a tengu, i believe. tl;dr (didn't research)

I dunno about gyarados being the leviathan. Not big enough. Maybe kyogre is though. Certainly a big whale looking thing. I think the leviathan is biblical, and most people think they refer to whales. I see. well, now that you mention it, golduck does look somewhat similar to depictions of kappa, though i've also seen/read in places that they they're turtle like, with turtle shells on their backs. and that water basin on their head (golduck's jewel?). Kingdra is definitely asian in origin. Cuz us westerners don't look at a sea horse and think "dragon." They used to see 'em in the water and with their S-shaped bodies, they thought they were baby sea dragons or something. Octillery certainly fits anime depictions of octopi.

Ice beam ftw. Edit: [color="blue"]Blastoise = surprise legendary/uber killer.

Wobbufet comes in. encores mirror coat. mirror coat battle, toxic kills wobuffet, leftovers heals blastoise to full. Palkia comes in. 0.0 Spatial rend meets mirror coat, palkia is out 87% health.

I've just been thinking about how so many of the pokemon have strong asian backgrounds that we might not even notice at first glance. And that these new gen5 pokemon are even more asian-centric than in the past. In the first generation, we actually had a lot of general, non-asian centric pokemon. still, there are some things that have more significance or make more sense if you know about japanese culture. like magikarp. karp are a good luck symbol. And gyarados itself looks like the infamous chinese dragon parade things with all the sections with people under 'em. Asian dragons are generally legless or just very serpentine in shape (dratini, dragonaire, milotic). More western dragons of course are more like Charizard and Dragonite (think puff the magic dragon). And meowth. It looks like the gold/black/white cats statues of good luck, even down to the paw pose and coin on its head. Ninetails is a fire fox. Why it's fire and legendary somehow and the fact that i has nine tails is all from japanese folklore. And arcanine being 'legendary' is certainly not western in origin as far as I understand it. Farfetch'd has to be asian in some way i don't understand, the way it uses a leek like a sword and has big bushy brows. Hypno/drowzee are tapirs and psychic and related to dreams, as is the new psychic tapir thing, which leads me to conclude it has some japanese background I'm unaware of. seaking and goldeen are colorful display fish similar to asain species of goldfish. and there are others I just don't understand where their concept came from. Golduck/psyduck. Slowbro lickitung chansey jynx snorlax Anyways, that's just the first gen. I'll leave it to you guys to help point out the references in the other gens (shedinja, ). So yeah Discuss: Subtle/not so subtle references to something in asian culture Which pokemon seem more influenced by the west or other places. (zapdos and the native american legend of the thunderbird, desukan, arbok, donphan, etc) What would be some 'american' or western oriented pokemon if they were to make some? (ex. armadillo pokemon)

Titania. Is a frosty bitch. And I mean that in a good way.
