It was not so much the thick fat I was objecting to, since Kingdra and Palkia are already our one weakness Dragons, so a Dragon with thick fat wouldn't be much of a difference.

But come on, Psychic/Dark with wonderguard? Never ever going to happen. Even for an Uber it's totally mad. You might as well just get an action replay and make yourself a Wondertomb or Wondereye.

I'm surprised there isn't some floating electromagnetic Pokemon or a Poison/Dark bat, even if it's just some average cave Pokemon, sort of like Sableye.

On the subject of electric floating things, are those rocks in that cave scene cap actually floating? It'd be neat to have a similar Pokemon, like a weird floating, electric Geodude.

1. I see the picture why, but the resistances of a pure-Dragon with Thick Fat are more diverse than a Water/Dragon's.

2. For some Farfetch'd reason, I can see a Psychic/Dark dual-type as the cover legendary of the 3rd Version of Gen. V. However, it's up to Game Freak which ability it will give.

I thought Grumpig was gonna be a Psychic/dark from images before I got him.

I thought the same of Girafarig.

New stuff. I particularly like the goofy looking bandit crocodile. X3

In an interesting twist, the professor is female.

The Gears is crazy cool. And a real pigeon Pokemon, yay! Wait, did I just get excited for pigeons?
I really can't wait to see what these guys evolve into.

Female Professor.

Ironically, its Japanese name, MamePATO, contains the Spanish word "pato", which literally means "duck".

As for the Gears Pokemon, please have Levitate.

Also, I saw the scans @ Siliconera.

That zebra looks like it will be electric/dark type to me...

News Credits: 2 · Sat Jun 12, 2010 2:35 pm

Sadly it's just a pure Electric type. Maybe if it evolves!

Someone just showed me this and I guess you've all already seen it, but I thought I'd show you it anyway:

That's why I was naming him Excalibur.

A Dark/Ground type huh? Interesting.

Mon Jun 14, 2010 8:39 am

Sorry but I still hate these new Pokemon .
So ugly, THOUGH...the legendaries look quite nice, well just the one that is Black but if found in the game White(urgh).

The Grass starter's ok as well.....but why do they all need to be so ugly? They're so bad it's making me start to like Zoruark...but not much, it seems like a re-attempt at Lucario...

Mon Jun 14, 2010 11:58 am

I'm still not liking any of the starters - has anyone seen anything about their evolutions?

Also, since it didn't seem to rock the boat last time I'd like to go slightly off-topic for a moment if no one minds:
1) I see that I need to trade Haunter to get him to evolve fully into Gengar - do may people on WFC just trade a Haunter for a Haunter? Any pitfalls or scams I should lookout for?
2) I have a couple of dino-looking pokemon and kinda liked the idea of a dinosaur/dinobot theme for my team. How many are there? I know there is Tropius, Torterra (kinda), Rhyhorn , and Aerodactyl. Are there any others? Are any of them any good? (I don't play other humans, just goin' through the game).

Thanks!

Mon Jun 14, 2010 4:15 pm

Haha, as I generally only like Dino-looking ones I know a few.
Aggron(he looks awesome, but his weaknesses are horrible, I recommend breeding Head Smash onto him)
Tyranitar(he's great, 4x fighting weakness is something to look out for though)
Feraligatr(despite supposedly being a Gator he looks more Dino-ish to me)
Those are the three that come off the top of my head...

Fixed.

Nah, Agrron's got to be Grimlock, he's METAL.

Besides that I agree with ChaosLock, though Venusaur over Ivysaur, far cooler.

Here's how I did it.

Grimlock: Tyranitar
Slag: Aggron
Swoop: Aerodactyl
Sludge: Tropius

Still waiting on something to be a Snarl... Nothing makes the cut so far.

So it looks like D/P/Pt only supports older wi-fi connections. So I'll have to schedule some time to change my wireless network, since when I change it everything else in the house will drop off till I change it back.

Do you need to be online at the same time as someone to trade? Or can you do it via a mail system?
