Lampshade in this case would be "ah yeah another sexy alien chick fresh out of sexy alien chickopolis, population: sexy alien chicks, lol"
Or something with that feeling, anyway. Probably less heavy-handed. Pointing it out as a quirk with some explanation or other such.

I mean I'm not an art critic and I haven't spent a lot of time studying your works, but while the proportions may be statistically different the general body plan of sizable breasts, thin-ish waist, the booty, and weird inhuman heads and legs remains constant.

Art style's not my thing, and also I like my women with normal heads so I don't wake up and think I'm having the nightmare from Jurassic Park 3. Sorry bruh.


Yeah I would've preferred a 100% design that was more draconic, especially wurmlike, to better fit the Nidhoggr inspiration. But I don't have anything really worth complaining about for the 100%, unlike 10%.

Ok I don't know if I mentioned this theory here, way back when, but I probably did
That Arceus was the first of a trio of legendaries representing the Trimurti from Hindu myth, with him specifically being Brahma, the creator, and then Kyurem (who at the time we expected to get a Complete Forme as well) being Vishnu, the preserver, because blah blah ideals and truth bs, and we'd have some great destructive force in Gen6 to be Shiva. But it's just occured to me that Kyurem, being a rampaging dragon that's explicitly said to kill and eat people, makes a fine Shiva, and now with 100% being revealed and raising Zygarde from Rayquaza tier to seemingly on a much higher ranking in the legendary hierarchy, its apparent nature as Primate Murder a sort of planetary white blood cell makes it an excellent candidate for Vishnu instead.

Fair enough. I guess I'm getting a bit desensitized to it, too...the Sporum does that to you. Sorry .-.

Also JSYK Zygarde Order Incarnate was based, in part, on that Four-Armed Creation Goddess from that religion I can't remember the name of, which ties her to Arceus. Arceus is tied to the creation trio...whose orbs can be found in Zygarde's chamber of Terminus Cave in X and Y. There is game-relevance ^-^

A draconic Zygarde could be interesting...

...also I just remembered the name of the hindu god I somewhat based Zygarde Order Incarnate on: Brahma .-.

And TBH it's probably more likely than my theory that the plot will be one big shout out to MLP. Not that you can really blame me thinking that, considering the names. XD

So before we get any real solid information on what is to come, I wanted to bring up the topic of what everyone wants and/or hopes for Sun and Moon. I mean, aside from it being a multi-region game, because we already went over that and established that EVERYONE would like to see that.


The first thing I hope for is a good story line and something different than the same-old "we're the evil team of evil, and we shall take over the world! bwahaha!" shtick that's been the running format forever. I mean, don't get me wrong, it was okay how it was done in Gen 4 (although I admit bias towards the first main-series games I played), and Gen 5 hit a high-point story-wise using an evil team, but by now it just really needs a change. That Gen 6 handled its evil team in a manner that was rather mediocre repeat of past teams only accentuates this. Also, while I can't really say anything bad about OR/AS as they are remakes, the fact that my least-favorite evil team got followed by my second-least favorite evil team last gen probably isn't helping my opinion on having an evil team in Gen 7.

At the least, I could be happy if we just got an evil team more like Team Rocket that, amazingly, isn't out to take over/destroy the world using the version-mascot legendary. Maybe this time the evil team is just a side-story, or just a group that really isn't evil but nonetheless end up in your way. Maybe the true "villain" of the story could be the/a legendary pokemon acting in the effect of a natural disaster, but WITHOUT the whole thing having been set off by humans; an honest-to-goodness came-from-nature natural challenge to overcome. Or here's another possibility, maybe your rival (and maybe his/her two buddies?) play the role of the human villains/evil team. Even something as simple as that and/or reducing the size of the evil team from a big organisation to a small group would be nice to see just for the fact that it isn't the same thing as before.

One last idea related to the story but not the evil team in particular, it might also be nice if there were a couple side-stories/plots that were completely optional/independent from the main storyline. Again, just to change things up a bit, but it would also give a bit more feeling of choice than just "this is the one and only storyline, thou MUST follow IT and only IT!" Heck, maybe even have the "main" storyline be separate from the league challenge entirely (I.E., if for some reason you wanted to, you could go ahead all the way to the E4 and become the champion without having to complete/follow the story towards the version legendary/whatever). Granted, I appreciate that there are certainly pros AND cons to doing that, but I merely bring it up as an idea.

tl;dr, I want to see something different in the storyline, not just the same old stupid evil teams. As to what exactly that is, I am not really that picky as long as it is something different and well-done.


The second thing I want, and just as important as the first, is that I want to see some challenging and memorable bosses. For me at least, Gen 6 didn't do that good of a job in creating boss characters that were memorable either for their design or role in the game, nor for the challenge (or lack thereof) that they posed. I'm just going to go ahead and say it that Cynthia is my favorite champion, with Blue coming in second. Both of them had some combination of being challenging and having a certain amount of storyline that makes them memorable; Blue having the better storyline, while Cynthia in my opinion was a bit more challenging, but again, I admit I have some Gen 4 bias. Steven was a fairly good and rounded champion, and while Alder in battle was maybe not as challenging as some of the others, the character made up for it. Lance is mainly memorable for, let's face it, the fact he had half a team of pseudo-legendary dragons, which could go either way as being a good or bad thing. Wallace is not a true champion and can go *CENSOREDCENSOREDCENSOREDCENSOREDCENSORED* himself, but if it wasn't for him, Diantha would probably be my least favorite/memorable of the champions depending who I settled on between her and Lance. It's not that she was a bad champion, there just wasn't anything about her that really grabbed me about her. She did her job and... that's about it. That's about it for all the Kalos gym leaders, really. Except even then, they COULD have been made a bit more challenging. When I think back to it, I really recall them more as being strong trainers (relative to the other NPCs) rather than feeling like actual bosses.

Tl;dr, gym leads and champions need to be more challenging and actually FEEL like bosses again, and like you accomplished something by beating them. Side note; difficulty settings/options to keep everyone happy would be a VERY good idea to solve this problem (as long as it isn't like the ones from B2/W2).


Lastly, I want to see some new evolutions for existing mons. While I strongly expect we'll be seeing more megas, and I will admit there are some mons that I think megas would be a good/best option for, I do still want to see some honest-to-goodness good old fashioned evolutions. I can appreciate why Gen 5 didn't have any given what it had going on, and we did at least get a new Eevelution last gen in addition to the megas, but now that we've had a little break I really do want to see some old lines get some love again. I might try to go through and list off my wishlist of evolutions and megas at some point, but as long as this post has ended up I'm going to cut it off at that for now.


So, thoughts, rants, and personal opinions? Fire away, guys!

I absolutely want an evil team, but I want an evil team on the level of Plasma; morally ambiguous, with a good storyline accompanying them, and a boss who (whether ambiguous like the rest or evil like Dennis) is so purely unlikable that you have no qualms about beating their face in, and strong enough that you have problems doing so. Also having them be a girl for once would be cool; we've had female protagonists, champions, rivals, and professors, it's time that criminal overlords got some gender diversity too.
Or they could just be Team Jurassic that would be cool too

Sidequests like the Looker quest in XY would be fantastic, I love those games and that short section of them was by far the best part.

Definitely agreed on challenging bosses, specifically as always I am a big fan of bonus bosses ala Red and Emerald Steven. That is the one thing (besides post game content) that XY majorly failed in. I can't remember half of the gym leader names and I have to really try to remember some of their faces. They just existed, that's all. Wulfric(?) in particular was the most disappointing eighth gym leader in the series by a magnitude of infinity, and he wasn't even half as forgettable as garden man or whatever the hell weirdo psychic lady was, and the only reason butterfly freak was more memorable is because her eyes held the abyssal hellpit. The Elites did much better than the gym leaders and probably would have been memorable were it not for the recurring trend of only ever seeing one of them once outside of the Pokemon league.
As far as Champions, Diantha was decent. Better than any of the Elites and with a lot less competition, given that there are iirc 23 Elites and only 10 champions.
Also I will admit only Lance is a worse champ than Wallace but Wallace is absolutely a champion what are you smoking

Specifically for Pokemon league bosses I really really REALLY want a Normal type Elite, I have for years.

I also want a proper battle frontier again. Not that I ever really used them much, but it was good to know they were there. Having just the day sisters or Super Train Bros. is just really boring and disappointing.

Some new additions to existing lines would be great.

As far as new Pokemon, I got two of my desired fossils last gen so the one thing I want is a Rock/Fighting Neanderthal please I need this. Also for the starters to continue their established trends because nothing was worse than that freaking squirrel prior to finding a way to adjust what the grass type theme was so that it fit.

1; Okay yeah, I'll give you that point that I'd be happy with another full-blown evil team IF they're Plasma-tier. And at that, not just a re-hashing of Plasma itself, I should add.

2; Yeah, the Looker quest was pretty fun (and my opinion has nothing to do with who Looker is a shout-out too, right down to the implied regeneration in OR/AS, nope). The only bad thing about it was the fact that it was really the only post-game story there was, but that isn't a fault of the story/quest itself.

3; When I think about it again, fair enough on Wallace. I will admit that Wallace was a challenging Champion and I can remember him being a heck of a fight in Emerald, though partly I blame that on the fact that, as I recall, I didn't really have the best team for facing him. I can't remember what my team was exactly, other than my starter was Blaziken and I was greatly regretting my lack of an Electric type. At any rate, on reconsidering that I would place him above Lance I guess. As far as the character goes I still really don't care that much for him. Thinking about it, maybe it's partly because he was the second Water-type boss in the game after his mentor and not counting Aqua, and that overshadowed my opinion of him because he just felt like a stronger repeat of another boss. Though technically his mentor was more a weaker copy of him if anything, but I digress.

4; If I have time before Sun and Moon are out, or even if I have to do it sometime after, I still plan to do my Normal-type team run of Kalos that I had planned for Z. I can;t believe I'm saying it, but normal types really do need more love. :D

5; Ah, yes! I forgot about that, but that's on my wishlist too. Even if they were a bit gimmicky and rarely used, at least it was something different and gave you choices other than just the battle tower variants. Specifically I really miss the battle factory. That was probably the best facility in the frontiers.


Another thing I remembered that I meant to mention is that I hope they maintain the level of accessibility that has been established for hidden abilities and IV breeding. I really don't expect to see the same mechanics as in OR/AS, but I do hope they retain the general idea and effects of it to make those thing more readily available. To be clear I don't want them to make it easier to breed/train, I just want that accessibility to the option that, while I still have to put in the work and effort to do it, it still at least can be done if I want to.

1: Well of course, there's no point in just repeating Plasma again. Unless of course it IS Plasma again, but that would be dumb, and then I'd hope it to be better than the last time they showed up. B2W2 was fantastic and probably still my favorite, but the Plasma plot was nowhere near as good as the original.

2: Looker regenerated on-screen in the XY quest though. The 11th Looker is us. Confirmed canon, Looker is a police time lord. A... crime lord? No that sounds villainous

3: Yeah, his personality is pretty lame (specifically in the games, he's much better in the manga) and it was a very poor choice for Hoenn's absurd amount of water to even affect its Pokemon league roster, but that's really all on Juan sharing the same type instead of something else that made sense. Can't fault Wallace for poor game design that doesn't even affect him directly.

4: They really do, which is surprising considering how good they are. Of the normal type gym leaders we have, more are infamously difficult than not, and the one that isn't is still quite formidable. Why we haven't seen someone make it higher with them is beyond me. Of course, there's also the opposite issue with Dark types that STILL hasn't been taken care of jfc.

5: Oh definitely. Battle Factory is the only reason I ever bothered to care about Venusaur.

6: Absolutely.

1; Haha, yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking as I was typing. On one hand yes it would be cool for Plasma to show up again, but especially since that already happened it really wouldn't make any sense. Mind you, Reformed/Good!Plasma could certainly show up again, though obviously it wouldn't be as villains (presumably...?). Actually, that would be really cool to see happen; Reformed Team Plasma all grown up, in a sense. An Order of Pokemon Knights that maybe still has the odd debatable opinion or whatever, but overall are a powerful and respected force of good. Maybe they could either be something like a mentor or a side quest for the player.

2; ...that was what feels like so long ago now, but how/why did I forget that? >.<


3; True enough, good sir.

4; Yeah, and and none of those leaders are even entirely using the possibilities of a Normal type team to its full potential.

And yes, we very much do need that Dark Type gym. I mean for goodness sakes Gen 2 had a Dragon type gym AND champion when only one line of Dragons existed. Not saying that was really a good idea, but if they were willing to do that, then there should be no reason why now, five generations after the introduction of Dark types, that there isn't a freaking Dark type gym!
