SwSh Uniform number

[Shib]

I really like Falinks - I was surprised that it (they?) weren't bug or steel type. It's a really interesting concept of a Pokémon but lol any multiple monsters as one Pokémon (like Kangaskhan) it does raise some question about how Pokéballs work etc.

I also like that it looks like it was inspired by Roman soldiers given the historic link with England. However if they do a region inspired by Italy and Falinks isn't included I'll be annoyed

 

[Esserise]

What is Falinks supposed to be? Honestly, it does not look like a pokemon to me. What do you people think about Falinks?

Why the uniform number thread for this question?

Anyway, it's based on Roman military formations. It's name is a pun on a phalanx (although that's a Greek formation, but their look is definitely more Roman).

Sorry. I'll fix it.

013 for the number I'm partial to (I dunno if I'd say if it's my favourite) and that I've been using part of my screen name for numerous years now (I didn't put it in my screen name here because no one here knows me as "13" like somewhere else). I forgot how I figured out that the number doesn't have to be three digits (maybe just from the "accept" button or whatever), but I added the 0 because I felt it was more "normal" for sport uniform numbers? (Which I proved myself wrong with an image search just now.) The padding doesn't bother me though.

I went with 151 because it's the number of my favourite pokemon.

 

[Team Gaara]

Went with 030 as a reference to a FE Cipher Card

 

[Knightwolf09]

Went 351. 3 and 5 are my lucky numbers, and the goroawase is Sugoi, or amazing/awesome

 

[NMLewis]

Is it possible to be refused to have a number accepted because another CPU got it first?

I realised that Leon had the same number after the fact. I'm just like, "Well, I'm better, and I'm gonna be replacing you ultimately, sooooo... it makes sense."
So no, you can have their numbers.

Do the numbers also show up in online battles? (I haven't attempted yet since I'm a casual player, and therefore would lose easily)

I think 492 can be read as fox (fokusu), if you don't mind.
Just realized that Opal's 910 is read as kyuto which means cute, so I think english word can be used too if it fits.

Omg really? I chose 492 cause it's my birthday, nice to know it's accidental japanese haha

Yeah, AFAIK, in goroawase, the number can be read as english (wan, tsu, suri, fo, etc.), and can be arranged into English words (At least that's the case for Opal and Bede, as their uniform number says cute and clever, respectively.)

 

[Sakuraa]

My favorite number, 9. I also really wanted to use a single digit number since everyone else in the game uses three.

 

[PkmnTrainerV]

If I had the games it’d be either 11 for my birthday, or 2 for being my lucky number.

 

[Karamazov]

I don't have the game, but I'm in a Pokemon RP with a trainer who's doing several League Challenges. His number is 96 (kuro - "black"), because his signature Pokemon is Noivern.

 

[toastghost]

I'm gonna go with 446.

if you guys know me, you know why.

 

[prog rocker]

[Contrainer]

666 because I had nothing better. My birthday is 4 digits.
