The alchemy symbol for lead looks nothing like the one in that post. It looks more like the Arabic numeral 4.

Okay, but Dhelmise. I get that the kelp is the Pokemon, but introducing it at the same time as Decidueye isn't fair to either of them, especially with the key similarities in their signature moves. What about water/ghost with the same ability? Or ghost/steel with a different ability?

Oh NOOO! Regarding the ability to choose what to do with freshly caught Pokemon, I like that it means that heal balls finally have a purpose, besides design. They were such a did concept.

Rotom didn't have those forms in Diamond/Pearl, they only exist in Platinum, and can't be traded back.

Obviously. I'm just saying that the second time he was featured was flimsy at best. Basically an excuse to release the faraway Island event and nothing more.

I don't know if the lucario movie counts. Mew is ultimately incidental to the plot. I've said more than once that a more accurate title would be "Lucario and the Mystery of this Weird Stone Tree."

I'm mostly excited to see Pokemon in real, proper HD. Videos with the HD lineless models are pretty. That and the likely return of walking Pokemon sounds great!

Pigs wallow in mud, mud has water, there you go? That and it was introduced in gen V, and so was scald? That's my only guesses.

Moreover, there apparently is data for a 3rd lycanrock somewhere.

Okay, so here's how I've put the pieces together. It's purely my interpretation, and not intended to be perceived as hard fact, merely speculation.

I only use the legendaries I really, truly love, that is, the ones who I like on every level (design, stats, story, etc.). Nebby is on my team. I don't regret using my Lunala whatsoever.

I think your suppositions are right on the nose. Lusamine dressed Lillie like nihilego, and possibly styles herself after pheromosa, and the "resemblance" between Gladion and Buzzwole is entirely coincidental. Same with supposed connections with Xurkitree, Guzzlord, Guzma, and Hala. I hope...

Mareanie in general is just a stellar, adorable-in-an-evil-way Pokemon, but the fact that it sneaks up on injured Corsola when they call for help is just creepy and beautiful. More Pokemon should show up as predators in SOS battles, it just kills me. Very true to biology. If you yell out for...

The fact that this thread is pure gold goes a long way to showing that characters were solidly center-stage this gen. People in other threads have been complaining about a weak plot, and certainly the number of cutscenes was almost obscene, but they gave the characters a breath of life that past...

@Matleo you seem to want every Pokemon to be able to do everything. get where you're coming from, but part of a pokemon's individuality, beyond design, is the niche they fill in battle. If primarina could be a mixed attacker with bug type draining moves, then it wouldn't really be primarina...
