Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

If Sylveon's type doesn't get revealed then knowing Xerneas and Yveteal's types will be enough to hold me over till the day of release.

You mean till July, right? The movie will be at by then anyway. It would be pretty stupid for GF to wit any longer, especially if it's a new type.

And actually, the way I've recently realized it is that E3 will be the best opportunity for them to give us a new type, since it includes the Q and A session. And that may be the reason it's there in the first place, so people can learn everything about the new type, how it would work, retyping existing Pokemon, etc.

But I know I shouldn't get my hopes up......

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

Also, if we could get the starters' evolutions--at the least their first one--that'd be just peachy.
Nah, starter evos are usually released a lot later.
And actually, I prefer that they not show them yet, just so that people will like the one's they've already chosen more, which could psychologically cause them to become attached with the one they choose, and hence, if the evo of the one they chose looks not so good, they'll still pick their original choice.
I think that makes sense......?
Regardless of whether i'm attached to it or not, If Fennekin's final evo has 4-legs it will be sitting in the PC box for the rest of the game.

This is becoming off topic, but.....
WHY?
I can't even imagine how it would look standing up, the only way I can it would look ridiculous. And I think the only reason they would make it stand up is if they wanted to make it Fighting type......

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

I don't see the problem in wanting Fennekin's evolution to be bipedal, it is just his wish. Personally I would like to see a quadrupedal Fire-type starter, we never had one, besides Typhlosion, but it stands on its hind legs 99% of the time. Also, not every bipedal Pokémon is of the Fighting-type... That is just silly. But in the end, I don't really care, I am most likely choosing Chespin or Froakie :p

If Its a fire starter then it's ALWAYS bipedal because it's a fighting type.

If that happens, Fennekin will never leave my active team ever.

As for the Fighting remark . . . Tepig is the only one who starts out on four legs but ends up on two. Chimchar and Torchic were bipedal to begin with.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

I feel like that this month's CoroCoro will be the biggest issue, it's right before the 16th movie comes out, and it's likely to reveal Sylveon's type, as well as a number of new Pokemon, some new concepts and features of the games, the Professor and Rival, and possibly either the villain team or the first Gym Leader, but all I want to see are things that will make us more excited for the games.

A bipedal fighting type canine Pokemon, why does that sound so familiar, like a certain Fighting/Steel Pokemon from Gen 4 we're all familiar with...

Personally, I would rather have Fennekin be quadruped all three stages, even if it's Fire/Fighting, the Musketeer Quartet proved that quadruped Fighting types can work. Honestly, I think a bipedal fighting type Fennekin would look nothing more than a re-textured and retyped Lucario.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

Rumors say, "it [Fairy-type] is weak to Poison and Steel, immune to Dragon, super effective against Dragon, Dark, and Fighting, and Fire and Psychic-type Pokemon take half damage from it."

So yeah.

Okay, but that's not the part I don't get. I don't get how that makes Pokesense.

Honestly? A lot of the type chart doesn't make sense, and only make "Pokesense" because it's been like that for so long we've all just accepted it. Why is bug good against dark, flying against fighting? Why do water and electric resist steel? What's up with bug and fighting's mutual resistance, and why is ghost weak to itself? The type chart can have as many arbitrary relations as Gamefreak wants it, as long as it makes for an interesting and not completely unbalanced mechanic.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

E3...CoroCoro...Masuda appearing on Smash...it's a pretty exciting upcoming week!

I feel like this might just be the big rain cloud of reveals bursting above our heads and finally quenching our thirst from the long, tortuous news drought.

Sorry for the artsy metaphor I'm just so excited

Next week is set to be very exciting. Between CoroCoro & E3 we're sure to get a shower of new details. Hopefully we'll get information on Sylveon, Xerneas & Yveltal's types.

I love that too. I also love to see the regional rodent. It can not be Zigzagoon. I hope not. I love the raccoon, but also think that in GSC, Rattata and Sentret was in the same area, and hopefully, it be the same with Zigzagoon and the new rodent.

Or Helioptile, after all, it is Electric/Normal.

Right, forgot about it... It will take me some time to get accustomed to the new gen, like I had to do with Generation 5.

After 5 gen of rodents, I do not think they will skip this gen.
