This thread is "Pokémon General". For BW2-specific news, see: >>24543

While everyone is freaking out over BW2, another secret legendary from Generation V has been revealed to the public!

http://bulbanews.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Meloetta_quietly_revealed_in_M15_poster

Meloetta (at least its default forme) will be making its debut in the Pikachu short that will air before the fifteenth movie, a la Pikachu's Vacation.

>> No. 25220
>>25219
Same, and yes, it's strictly aesthetic in the newer gens. Back in gens I and 2, I think, I'm pretty sure the cause of shiny Pokemon was a perfect IV spread, which lead to the rumor that shiny Pokemon were inherently more powerful, but nowadays, that's not true.
>> No. 25221
>>25220

Shininess was determined by iv spread in Gen II but Shiny pokemon were usually only slightly above average ev-wise at best

>>If a Pokémon's Speed, Defense, and Special IVs are 10, and its Attack IV is 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 14 or 15, it will be Shiny.
>> No. 25230
Okay guys, I need some help: I'm breeding a UU or lower team for BW2 that will be the est ever but I can't decide on which Pokemon to include. Here are the Pokemon I'm definitely going to include:

Octillery (Because he's a baller)
Mismagius (Because she's also a baller)
Galvantula (Because I spent weeks breeding the perfect one and I'll be damned if it goes to waste!)
Shedinja (To Baton Pass speed boosts to Octillery)

So that leaves me with two slots left to fill and too many potential pokemon to fill it. Pokemon I'm thinking of using to fill the remaining 2 slots:

Krookodile
Chandelure
Ludicolo
Gardevoir
Poliwrath
Drifblim
Xatu

Help me finish my team!
>> No. 25233

Ludicolo's a fucking boss.
Rain Dish + Leftovers + Leech Seed = laffo
I've switched Ludicolo into a Suicune, seeded it, and then immediately gotten frozen by an Ice Beam or Blizzard or w/e.
He stayed frozen the entire time Suicune was on the field.
Suicune was KO'd by Leech Seed long before he could KO Ludicolo.
Also Xatu's fun with Mirror Bounce.

Is there a good chart somewhere I can print off that lists Pokemon, their (pre)evos, and what it takes to get from one to the next?

I'm trying to load B/W with as many Pokemon as I can from HG, Pearl, Sapphire, and LG so I can just have *one* Pokemon game in case I actually decide to fight someone. Having a checklist that I can mark off to see if I need to do anything in Gen IV or Gen III before moving them (like a trade/held-item evolution or something) would be quite useful.

I think I'll just roll my own. I need to group disjointed relationships (Eeveelutions, babbys) as well as what is necessary to evolve or get eggs (in some cases).

At 1HP and asleep, your average legendary takes 30+ ultra balls to capture. That is the best odds you can get.

Seriously, I get that they're rare and all, but legendaries having a catch rate of fucking THREE is just utterly retarded. Most of them aren't even difficult to get down to optimal capture, and then it's just mindlessly spamming pokeballs by the dozens.
>> No. 25557
>>25553
Fun fact: Dialga and Palkia have catch rates of 30 each. Mantyke and Mantine's catch rates are 25 each. The primordial beasts of time and space are easier to catch than manta rays.

I'm honestly pretty surprised that they haven't made an antagonist similar to the villain in the second Pokemon movie yet.
IE: hunting down and catching legendary Pokemon ultimately (and unintentionally) resulting in a cataclysmic event that you have to fix
>> No. 25573
>>25572
Because that would clash with the deeply-rooted sentiment of "FUCK IT, CATCH THOSE MOFOIN LEGENDS" permeating the games. As opposed to the way the anime tends to treat legendaries as being generally more important than warrants fucking about by a nine year old dumbass.

Anime: see this Pokémon here? If you caught this Pokémon, it would END THE WORLD.
Game: catch everything you see, give no fucks as to the consequences.

>> No. 25579
>>25577
Latios and Latias don't really seem to fall under the same category of legendaries as a lot of the others. They seem to canonically be a species with multiple members (as evidenced by having sexes despite not being breedable), and presumably there's a breeding population somewhere. And I don't think any of the games have really given them a mystical backstory or anything.

All the other legendaries seem to be one-of-a-kind gods and spirits and genetic experiments, and Latios and Latias just seem to be a powerful species of dragon that's either endangered or usually live far away. Their base totals mean that they're never going to be something we find in the wild in a game, but theoretically they live in the wild somewhere.

Come to think of it, I guess technically there would be multiple Deoxys running around somewhere, too, right?
>> No. 25580
>>25579
Deoxys is a mystery. It's a freaking alien, so there's no telling how many they are, where they're from, or even what it's made of.
>> No. 25581
So in the process of capturing as many Pokemon as possible in Gen III/IV and transferring them to Black, I have created a site page (which I will post here when done) that lists all the Pokemon by National Pokédex number, except for babbys/new evos, which I put with the originals.

Going through each one individually, getting the names, placing the pictures, and marking up which III/IV games they appear in (and if they appear in B/W at all!) takes a long damn time. Been working on it for two or three weeks and just now have I completed everything up to Gen III. Gen IV should be done by the end of the week, in part because about a quarter of those are babby/evos of previous ones.

From serebii:
"For those of you in America,the Keldeo event is now running in Gamestop stores across the country, or EB Games if you're in Canada. This event gives a Level 15 Keldeo with a PP Max to Pokémon Black & White games. In Black & White, you can teach it Secret Sword if you take Cobalion, Terrakion and Virizion with it to the Moors of Icirrus, but if you wait until Black 2 & White 2 are out and trade it over, you can activate its Resolute Form by teaching this move. The event lasts until October 6th so be sure to get it while you can
As a reminder, this event runs in Europe from September 1st to October 11th, in various stores such as GAME in the UK and various other stores depending on the country. Be sure to check your local store to see if they're participating. In Australia, it runs from September 15th to October 10th in EBGames stores."


"For those of you in the UK, the stores GAME & Gamestation have announced all the stores in the country will be participating, not select ones as per previous events. These stores will all be giving away Keldeo for Black & White players from this Saturday, September 1st, until October 11th...the day before Pokémon Black 2 & White 2's release."

>> No. 25842
>>25841
The sequels don't solve many of the core issues the first two games had. They're incredibly hand-holdy, the plot is repeatedly forced down your throat with gratuitous cutscenes full of awkwardly-translated dialog, and so on...

On the other hand, at least now there's decent post-game content. And the world is MUCH bigger, there's a lot more to do..

I'm calling them an improvement, but many of the things Black/White broke still haven't been fixed.

I don't know about anyone else in this thread, but personally I'd like to see a Pokémon game that has a grand, compelling plot I'm not forced to pay attention to. But then, I like choice.

I kind of want a Pokemon game on the WiiU with multiple save slots and all the 'Mons in order and so on, but if they did it with 3-D graphics, I don't want it done with the 3-D graphics they used in some of the other games, because they look sorta...eeeeh.

I'm not sure if Touhoumon goes here or /jam/ but I've been playing it lately and I'm really enjoying it. I think it might be because I know next to nothing about Touhou so I haven't the slightest clue what most of them will learn/evolve into (excluding the more popular characters).

It's kind of why I'm excited for Gen VI. Since it's a worldwide release a lot of it might be a surprise for once.

I played through Touhoumon myself last year. It was a patched version of "Touhoumon v 1.11" that came with an expansion with the Johto pretty much tacked on to it. It was cool, but got too grindy at the end, if you ask me.

Grotto code. The Master Ball code is more or less a one time thing, if you have enough pokeballs before using it. The Grotto also gives you a hundred percent regen, but it doesn't ignore items. So chances are you'll be there for a while, considering how the goods one (Dittan, Dragonan, etcan) are only one percent.

I heard a claim today that most of the Pokémon, even today, actually stem from concept art from Gen 1. So if that's true, when people claim "they were better designed back then", they're comparing two 'mons that were actually designed at the same time...

Doubtful. The way Pokemon design works is each member of the team is responsible for like 5-10 pokes and many of the folks from the original team have been replaced by newer ones, such as James Turner.

It would explain why Gen 4 mons sucked especially hard compared to everything else, while Gen 5 was a mix of truly awesome and truly terrible designs. There was a lot of overturn between 3, 4, and 5 so even if most of your designers were crap at least they didn't stick long enough to ruin the next batch.
