Zuzie posted:Its a bit odd how entire orders (like scorpions) or even an entire class (such as the case with Corsola) may only be represented by a single Pokémon while other times, a single species may be represented by several families (like all the Pokémon based on the domestic cat). get this: they can make more pokemon in the future

Tyranitar is a good Pokemon despite its four times weakness to a common, powerful type because he is super versatile and is explicitly designed to look like a kaiju

I'm pretty sure Eevee is supposed to be a fox. And the rest are canid-like barring Vaporeon and his hosed up tail.

All the Eevee forms are vaguely canid creatures with traits of other animals. Being difficult to link to any one animal in particular is likely deliberate.

Calaveron posted:Why is flareon considered a bad thing Its a really slow Physical Fire type that had a really bad movepool till Gen V. It still sucks because its a really slow fire type, but its sort of a meme because Jolteon, Sylveon and Vaporeon are v. good and Espeon/Umbreon/Leafeon have niches. Also no one cares about Glaceon.

First-timer philosophical question: since I am a big baby newb, I have Exp. Share turned on and my team (Farfetch'd, Lucario, Pyroar, Steelix, Lapras, Chesnaught) is pretty solidly in the mid-upper-40s range (just past Lumiose City Gym) and hasn't had much trouble with just about anything to this point. I feel like I might be missing out on The Real Pokemon Experience by just sticking with them, but anything I encounter or catch is a good 10 levels behind and hard to justify swapping in without a big type advantage over the upcoming gym. Am I playing the game wrong?

You're going to be stupidly over leveled if you leave the Exp. Share on all game. The point of it is to help the new things you encounter catch up to your team, but if you'd just like to stick with your six guys for the rest of the game, I'd recommend turning the Exp. Share off.

If you want just those six guys, turn the Exp Share off. If you leave the Exp Share on, then rotate some new guys in, they'll catch up easy. It doesn't really matter what you pick, if you like the look of it, use it!

On topic of dumb hats, as much as I like Mismagius, his Gen 6 model looks completely diffrent to me that he did in the sprites, and that sucks.

Got my brother a 3DS and Omega Ruby for a going-to-college gift. We've been having fun trading version exclusives and spamming O-Powers at each other. He even hooked me up with an Abra, which I was having trouble catching. Meanwhile, I'm only a Latios and a Groudon away from encountering everything in the Hoenn dex! Do you get the reward for capturing them all or just seeing them all?

They should've used the flying models ONLY for Sky Battles, and the Pokemon Amie standing models for regular battles. Except for Archeops, he should keep on flapping.
