Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
Eagerly awaiting the next chapter of TQFTL, ILCOE version. Also, a toast to all those who fail at submitting error report forms! :'D I love this site.
The "shi" in Reshiram (like "shi" is in general in Japanese) is pronounced pretty much like "she".
Oh my gosh! I am so sorry for the double post! But, I meant the names never meant much to me anyway. I usually nicknamed my Pokemon whatever the heck I want.
Well, I kind of like the starter names. I'll live with it. I never did care much for the names, but Snivy? It makes Pokemon sound like a kids show. "Hey kids, are you ready to see Snivy the [insert animal here]!
"Ye-es!!!1one1!!!1o31one!!!"
But, I am wondering one thing. Is the I in Reshiram's name a long I or a short I? Or, did they just leave it up to me to start a flame war over which is better.
Rankurusu (the blob) is in White. I say so because you seem to be implying that Gochizeru (Gaga) is better than Rankurusu, so you should get White. Since White has Rankurusu, that is nonsensical.
If, however, you were saying Rankurusu > Gochizeru, then I agree.
GET WHITE. Would you rather have Lady Gaga, or a squishy green cell-blob? :3
Hey i know a name that will make everyone happy!Porkabue!Pokabu+Pork+Barbecue.Do u like it?
Mapped out as in the system of reigns and day dedications - I've yet to actually distribute the Pokémon across the days, but that's just manual work.
Wait, what? You've already got it mapped out? That's pretty amazing - how long did it take you?
Porygonrulz, the current Zodiac is the fourth-generation Zodiac. There will be a fifth-generation one that has already been mapped out, but most likely won't be put up until the games come out in English.
@Ferb: No way, man; Zekrom has nothing on Reshiram.
Hey, Arceus spammy.
Butterfree,you should include info about Genesect(an ancient bug Pokemon that was robotized by Team Plasma)in the Zodiac's story.
Get White, it has Zekrom, which is cooler
By the way, I'm trying to decide if I should get White or Black…. Black has Reshiram, which is fluffy, but the White Forest looks like more fun than the Black City…. how does that Hi-link thing work, anyway?
The same place "Isshu" came from: a wordplay on unity. Very possibly also has to do with "nova", meaning "new", or an abbreviation of "United States of America", what with the region's real-world counterpart.
The names are DECENT, and I use the term lightly… I agree that Smugleaf and Ottamaru would be better.
It's the region name I have a problem with. UNOVA? Where did that come from?
*ressurects*
Tepig is cool.
Snivy is cool.
Oshawott is awesome!
I think Tepig's next evolutions should gradually get warmer, such as Tepig>>Warmine>>Hotoinka.
Snivy… so… "Sn"…
Oshawott! I absolutely ADORE double letters. And also, it just sounds cool. <3 Oshawott.
I never said that I'd never get used to them - indeed, I realized from the beginning that I will eventually get used to them. But, that doesn't change how much I dislike them now.
But, you are right. It's not important, and I need to move on.
Talking about the things I do like about the new games…
Several of the Pokemon are just really cool. My top five of this generation are Daikenki, Rankurusu, Kirikizan, and Tsunbeaa, Zeburaika, all of which, save the last two, will also go onto my list of all time favorites.
The season mechanic was a good idea - I really like the idea that, when I save my game and come back to it a long time afterward, it won't be the same. I was disappointed at the lack of real time seasons (I blame Animal Crossing!), but, still, it's nice to have seasons nonetheless.
Team Plasma seems more… realistic and farsighted than the previous teams (excluding Team Rocket). While the other teams were trying to (essentially) physically remodel the world into their ideal version of it, Team Plasma is trying to change social / societal ideas about Pokemon, which, in my opinion, is much more interesting.
Also, the games represent a true reboot of the series, something both the Hoenn and Sinnoh games tried (and failed) to do. The Hoenn and Sinnoh games retained some old Pokemon (such as Zubat) in much the same roles as before. In these, all the Pokemon are new, so (this is, of course, an assumption on my part) the games have a very new feel to them.
Of, course, there is likely much more than the stuff listed. I have yet to play the games.
The name Snivy sounds kind of unpleasant, but I think it'll grow on me. Tepig and Oshawott sound odd to me because the word tepid has always made me think of water, and because I live in Ontario and think of Oshawa as a city, not as a Pokémon.
