The Swordsman

Well like I predicted when the other field was announced, ZEL being split up would still be saying goodbye to three persons, just them as the persona ZEL and the one body. It doesn't have to be the absolute worst outcome.We are the ray of hope beyond despair! You gotta believe things can be better, lets keep hope alive! (I need to stop playing Daganroppa) As for the field, this is now my second favorite field and actually boosts most of my team. Its going to be pain though if Titania gets it.....

The having to be 10 to own pokemon rule only exists in the anime, kids as young as being in preschool have shown to own pokemon in the games. EDIT: Sorry I was catching up and just saw your later posts. Its my fault for getting ahead of things. I always thought they were made by the professors as nothing in the dex entries implies the PC wrote them and the entries has been used in game and in the manga. (example a Hypno trying to kidnap a young girl if FRLG)

Screw the unknown! Togepi FTW!

Out of curiosity, what pokemon first comes to mind when you think of Gen 5? For me its Braviery.

I'm hoping that the new Mega Stone is a Galladite.

Thank you for the hint Ame.

Well I'm disappointed both forms of Lycanroc are pure rock, (a bad pure typing so most likely not replacing Lucario) version exclusive instead of being a day/night pokemon which it will most likely become once gen 8 comes out and Pokemon Bank is being delayed again. The only good news is that trainer customization is greatly expanded and Pokemon Amie is back in a new form.

Awesome animations as always! Can you please give us a hint of who it is Ame?

Than why would guns be invented?

Another thing Giovanni didn't leave Team Rocket to rediscover what pokemon mean to him, he left to grow stronger and was going to rejoin Team Rocket if Ethan/Lyra didn't beat him thanks to Celbi. Of course this information was in at least my case in a hard event to get for HGSS so I don't blame you for not knowing. Well there is logic in Pokemon it just isn't in the battle system. Then why doesn't criminals and teams use them? At the very least they could injure the trainer's pokemon or the trainer. Well that was in the anime, which doesn't even bother to try to be faithful to the games.

Guns don't exist in the Pokemon world, the only weapon besides the shock batons to exist is swords. pokemon mostly replaced the tools for war which is why in the short being a strong Pokemon Trainer is akin to being heavily armed, its also why Ghetisis tried to take away all of the people's pokemon. Red got off Mt. Silver to participate in the World Tournament in BW2 so he does travel and this Red has more of his canon team than Origins!Red so I doubt that it isn't the real Red. He could still represent the player here however.

We know his background but we don't know what he did between his goodbye scene in BW and his reappearance in BW2. I for one would like to see this journey and see how Rood convinced Clay to let them make Old Team Plasma in Driftveil City. As for the shorts released today the first one wasn't that great and was just a bunch of action scenes. A little context of what Red was doing would of been nice. On a side note is Generations canon to anything? At first I thought it was a extension to Orign's verse but Red's starter seems to be bulbasuar here. The second one however was great and left me wanting more but were was Looker's croagunk? I really wish these episodes were at least 10 to 15 minutes long as I feel about 4 minutes is just too short.

You got the wrong guy N is my favorite character in Pokemon. Maelstorm is the guy who hates N.

So not much new info today, I hope the UBs aren't Pokemon. Someone on Game Faqs made a interesting case for Nightruff being rock/fairy as it would give him a 4x weakness to Steel (representing silver) and the fairy type having a strong association with the moon. If this is true it would make me like Nightruff better but I'm hoping Dayruff gets the fairy typing instead.

Sorry but N is in the poster. Which IMO makes the series even better.

While I have no problem with Red either not all the protagonists are blank states Ethan, Lyra, Brendan, May, Lucas, Calem and Serena all show their personality if you don't play as them. I'm hyped for this not only is N appearing Ghetisis appears in his BW2 outfit so we might finally get to see Old Team Plasma get animated.

Are we getting a Pokemon Origins spinoff and is that N and BW2 Gheitsis I see in the poster?! Will we get an animated Old Team Plasma vs.Neo Team Plasma? Either way this is awesome! Also more Dayruff hype with it getting a signature move!

Even with the removed hair Nightruff IMO doesn't look like Knuckles and Dayruff looks more like a wolf than a fox to me.

I don't think either design is mundane or wereruff really is a Sonic rip off but I don't like its design. Whats worse is that they accuse the fans of it being furries. I might like wereruff better if its shiny gives it the color scheme of wolfruff.

I really like Day Rockruff and I hope it has a good typing and if so it might replace Lucario. If it has fairy typing I'll die of happiness.

I'm going to keep going, I may restart after I win the game though if I can somehow make eggs of my team (except for Samuott) and transfer them into the new game.

Unless its still one team. Old Team Plasma might have dropped the Plasma name for its negative connotations but still kept their dark pokemon as they still cared for them. Another possible point of evidence for this theory is Lillie who shares a similar opinion as N and is speculated to be connected to the Ather Foundation in some way.

Its not hard to deny at all as all we got for real information is a few seconds in the trailers all of this is just speculation. Also Hypno and dark type pokemon have been used by regular people, gym leaders (Hypno was once used by Sabrina in one of the games) and even the Elite 4. (the only league presence the dark type get since they don't appear in gyms) I would like Colress' return though. As counter theory what if the foundation was found by N? Taking care of abused Pokemon is something right up his alley.

Okay I finally got caught up on this We are getting the Mega Ring? Thanks Ame! I'm glad were getting it before the post game as even though I have no doubt there will be more content than most Pokemon games we would lose the chance to use it on the leader of Team Meteor. What if the person we are saying good bye to forever is ZEL because they get unfused somehow? I rather not have us die or be incapacitated but if we are please Ame give a choice of a few people. (that way we are given a chance to chose our poison with the temporary teams we would be using, also I don't want to play as Cain, sorry Cain fans.) I also would never join Team Meteor Wouldn't Pulse weather work out similar to the Shadow weather in the Gamecube's games?
