Your Favorite Pokemon.................

[fruckert]

Agreed.
I like very few 4th genners, and like, 2 5th lines.

Seriously, guys.
Big raptor mantis with scythes for arms.
What's not to love?

Scyther is pretty awesome, and scizor was my fave in pokemon gold. So bad *** with swords dance and double team.

But honestly, Kabutops and scyther design-wise are so similar. Scythes for arms, raptor stance, except ones a shellfish the other a mantis. If I'm not mistaken they both could learn specific HM moves in gen 1. Kabutops has always been able to surf, but wasn't scyther able to use fly in gen 1? Or am I completely wrong about that

I think the design went WAY downhill after 3rd gen. In my opinion 4th gen and on just look god awful.

Honestly there are waaaaaay too many pokemon that I like. But in the end I guess you never forget your first. Charizard. His name was Pyro, I got him to level 98, I even used the GBA Transfer Pak and had him rampage through Pokemon Stadium. Charizard, final word in awesomness!

Samantha, on the other hand, turned out pretty hot.

Yeah what that comic says. Younglins that play pokemon today don't go all "man the pokés in red and blue were much better than these!" they are growing up with the new generations. We simply don't like them because they aren't "our generation".

First 2 gens also had some really badass looking pokes as well as japanese madness and fabulous kawaii.

[drenrin2120]

I get the whole, we were kids during gen 1, 2 and 3 thing, but even objectively, the designs have gone down hill atleast a bit. Ice cream cone pokemon? For real? REALLY?

[Archem]

I've always felt that the designs for each generation have been fine. Since Gen. III, they seem to be a little more "tough guy", but they're in no way bad. I won't say every single one is great (every generation has its stinkers), but I actually do enjoy most of the new Pokémon.

Yes, even the goddamn ice cream cone. Kiss my ***.

[fruckert]

I don't like how humanoid they've gotten.
Makes keeping them as pets inside tiny balls and making them fight eachother seem more wrong.

[Archem]

If Machop/Machoke/Machamp hadn't conditioned me to not be bothered by that, I might feel the same.

Also, Mr. Mime. Possibly others, I'm not being thorough.

[A Forgotten Legend]

Jynx?

[fruckert]

Jynx has other problems, dude.

[Archem]

And yet, some of you will still hold fast with your arguments against new generations' designs...

[A Forgotten Legend]

I like a lot of the gen 5 pokemon.

[Prpl_Mage]

Ice cream cone pokemon? For real? REALLY?

Designed by the only non-japanese designer on the crew apparently.

Yeah we got the machop family (machamp even got speedos), abra, jynx, mr.mime and the hitmons.
In the second generation we even started capturing babies and made them fight.

Just curious, which humanoid are you thinkinh about in later generations beside gardevoir, the goth, sawk and throh?

I remember people having issues with the third gens designs. But now some years later they've started to like them instead. WIll probably be the same with Gen 4 and 5. Just wait for gen 7 and 8 and you'll make shrines of those.
