I'm still not impressed by Basurao.

:P Okay, then. With Rain Dance activated, water type moves get boosted by 50%. Consider that: With its base power already doubled to 160, Waterfall gets an additional 40, going up to 200. And with a splash plate/mystic water attached, it gets an additional 20% boost.

Basurao has a maximum 216-power Waterfall/Dive. Basurao.....will be delivering the pain.

Alternatively, you could go for its other ability, which doubles the power of recoil moves (meaning Double Edge gets a base power of 264 with Silk Scarf attached) but it also doubles the recoil damage, so Basurao won't be lasting very long with that approach.


...

Okay, I'll stop now. Sorry about that. Gosh, I sound like such a nerd. .____.




With that aside, I wish they had come up with the Legendary vs Legendary battle idea back in D/P. I hope that this will become a new tradition in the future games.
I wonder how it'll work out in the 3rd version, what with using the 3rd legendary and all...

I'm guessing that you capture Kyurem (Sp?), & N gets both Reshiram & Zekrom, or he gets Kyurem, who you have the ability to catch immediantly afterwards, with you not getting any.

Probably yeah.



Look what I found

ZOMG Tsutarja sounds like a bird. :blink:
Pokabu sounds like a baby elephant.
Mijumaru sounds like.......something.


My favorite, by far, is Pendoraa. It's a freaking centipede that sounds like a Hollywood monster.

@KCS: Somethin' funny, because I found out the meaning of basura. In Spanish, it means garbage, but in the Philippines, it references a gang.

In other words, Basurao can either be the Garbage Fish or the Gangster Fish. There, something that benefits both of us. :P

And, here's some more reasons to love Washibon and Wargle!

1. It's based off an American Eagle...IN AMERICA! (OK, not really)
2. It learns some cool moves, like Freefall!
3. Since I'm playing Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon (Wii) right now, I am very much reminded of the main character when I see Washibon.

I love Wargle. Unfortunately, you can't get it (or its pre-evolution) until very late in the game, which is why I'm not using it. Same with Buffalon. And the Anteater. -_-

First off, I'd just like to point out the fact that Chaobuu totally farted.
Aside from that, Buffalon's cry just makes me want it more.

Same here. Game Freak has really improved on making cries. They actually sound like animals now.



Now, if only they'd update the Generation 1 cries...

Finally! The sprites with locations on one convenient page!

@KCS: And about the Pokemon cries...seriously? I mean, I guess they're cool and all, but making them better shouldn't be such a big deal. Just because Gochirezuru or something has a freaky cry doesn't mean I'll still like it.

And NEVER will Game Freak change the cries of previous-generation Pokemon! I may not have owned older games, but I sure can understand how much people love nostalgia. By changing, for example, Charizard's cry, it will never be the same.

OK, rant over. Man, I have so much to debate with you. :lol:

Wait...if no trainer has Baruchai or Barujina in their team, how am I going to get them on my Pokedex if I have White? :blink:
And how will a player with Black be able to get Washibon on their dex if no trainer has it?


That list must be incomplete...



Ok, here's my reason for saying that they should improve the old cries.

The only reason why they made Charizard and Rhyhorn have the same cry, and Goldeen + Caterpie and vice-versa is because the Game Boy couldn't support that much memory. There really isn't any reason to keep them the same any longer.


The old cries are embarrassing for such an advanced and modern system like the DS. I don't mind if, say, Gyarados's cry retains the same pitch and tempo it had in Generation I, but it would nice to see it refined and cleaned up so it sounds more like a roar and less like the electronic static beep that it is.

You spelled trade wrong. But that's good marketing, not a flaw.


And I'd prefer they not update the cries. As ZD said, nostalgia is huge for attracted old gamers.

Let's use your Gyarados example. As it stands, no amount of 'cleaning' will make it sound like a roar. New recording will. I would absolutely HATE if I was battle a Gyarados and instead of that familiar low roar/groan and beeps, it just roared at me. How generic is that? If I want overused monster noises, I'll play a different game.

Meh, who really cares about nostalgia? In the time since Red and Blue were released, babies have been born, have learned how to walk, and are now going into high school. I've moved on since then.

Gyarados's cry was acceptable 12 years ago, but now, in the present, it no longer makes sense to have a giant dragon/fish-monster sound like it has an inflamed larynx when current audio technologies are more than capable of making something much more impressive.

Absolutely not. That doesn't even apply here, Clocky. To say to me, a person whose first ever game was Blue version, to get over myself...it's a little beyond harsh

We change the cries, we might as well just ditch the pokemon designs. I'm thinking a giant purple dragon with two heads and shoots lightning from its eyes for Gyarados. Rydon, an overweight blue man with a hat holding a tommy gun.

After all, it's been over a decade. We should let them go.

It doesn't even matter whether we debate this or not. Game Freak will never change the cries even with a gun to their head.
