roqi Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) I was thinking about that but Vultures are not Russia themed, maybe some Bear like Ursaring but Ursaring is Gen 2 That's true. But Mandibuzz is Braviary's counterpart. And with vultures being culturally coded as so ~evil and vile~, it would fit that the USSR would be personified as one. I can actually imagine some Cold War propaganda poster showing an American eagle locked in deadly combat with a Soviet vulture. xD Edited March 23, 2015 by roqi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said VULTURES are culturally typified as evil and vile-- and the USSR, in the times of the Cold War, was as well. I never even said anything about Russia.

I did not misread you at all, Russia was part of the USSR, even more the USSR "began/formed" in my country also it was "assigned" the evil and vile "role" by some other countries, in our eyes it was not evil nor vile, i'm not offending your country so (again) do not offend mine. This is getting off topic (and personal) so it should end here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixl Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Anyway, I was not aware that the Russian mascot was also an eagle. Which is cool! If only we could have two variations of the Braviary Shiny...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we could change the "normal" sprite but i don't know if people would like that Maybe, just maybe, make a separate male and female sprite? Otherwise i don't think this is a good idea.

This is getting off topic (and personal) so it should end here. Well, if you equate the USSR with modern Russia, that's your choice -- I never spoke about the latter, I merely made a joke about Cold War propaganda. Anyway, as a Polish person whose family was forced out of their home because Polish territory was annexed by the USSR, I could be offended by you saying the USSR was not evil and vile.

If that's what you want let's continue this totally not pertinent to the topic argument (started by you) here...actually no i'm more mature than that let's just continue in private, i'll write you.

If that's what you want let's continue this totally not pertinent to the topic argument (started by you) here...actually no i'm more mature than that let's just continue in private, i'll write you. Let me repeat what I said in the PM response: I don't actually want to argue with you because you're free to have your opinion. But when you accuse somebody of something in public, you can't silence them from defending themselves by then saying it's off-topic. You could have either PMed me to begin with, or reported me and let a moderator deal with it. But you made this public, so I responded in kind. To be fair. Braviary screams Murica. Red White and Blue. Released in Unova (which is supposedly based on some part of New York or something) It is the most MURICAN of all Pokemon. It also has gold because America is rich. This any better? Perfect. I want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further discussion of such within this thread will result in warnings being handed out. If you're dead set on discussing the matter, do it through PM. ~Jericho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roqi Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Hell yea let's just make more shinies. Two versions of snowy Kyurem: The first one uses default shiny Kyurem ice's colors, the second's blue icey colors were nabbed off off Vanillish. I honestly dunno which is better, what do y'all think?

Meruem Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 some more virizions Hmm well if you want to make "summer" why not try some light green for the upper mantle (and sand yellow for face/lower part) with the horns and feet gray...maybe the horns can also be the color of "setting sun" (so orange with red) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roqi Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I like the first one, pink and green ftw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meruem Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I like the first one, pink and green ftw. i wouldnt mind it too much only if it wasnt so damn close to the original shiny... also, green isnt a very common "autumn color" :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty, that's what matters. Oh, and I like the middle Terrakion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaunt Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I like the "red" one but it's a little too similar to the original shiny...wait i think i have another idea: why not try green for the lower part (except the face) and sky blue for the upper?
