Next Pokemon Thread VI: Unova Evolution/Capture/Release Speculation Arena

[pokemonsquared]

Actually I would argue gen 3 was a paradigm shift as a whole. All gen 5 really bought to the table was a new region and pokemon and items, which are standard for all generations

[Umbilical Noose]

I agree with you except on the choices of Flying types Ash could have gotten in Unova.

I think that Archeops would have been better for Ash than either Sigilyph or Braviary. Thats because Sigilyph's design in odd (not in a bad way though), and the animators would have had problems making it show facial expressions.

Braviary would have been a dull choice like you said because it is too similar to Staraptor in terms of fighting style, though it does has moves like Rock Slide, Rock Tomb and Shadow Claw which makes it different from Staraptor, but i doubt the writers/animators would have given it those moves if they had made Ash catch Braviary.

Archeops would have been a good choice, because it would have given Ash his first fossil pokemon, his 2nd overall Rock type. Also its movepool is quite good and have many choices (can use 8 types of moves [without considering tutor moves] which are usable without any problem in the anime) and is quite powerful and at the same time can become quite weak as well if its ability is used in the anime.

An Archeops with the following move choices would have been good for Ash (anime-wise),

- Quick Attack
- Wing Attack/Aerial Ace
- Ancientpower/Head Smash
- Dragonbreath/Dragon Pulse/Focus Blast

Archeops would have been a nice choice too. But I suppose most people didn't get the point when I said Ash should have got Skarmory, Altaria, Hochkrow and Sigilyph. They are all flying types but they also carry types that Ash usually doesn't catch. If they had went that way then Ash would have got Pokemon of each type till now.

Btw, Sigilyph could work just like Roggenrola\Boldore.

I personally am rooting for Steel Wing or Heat Wave. U-Turn would also be a neat move for it.

I hope not... Chansey and Marshtomp fit Brock well, and they're two of my favorite Pokemon of his.

[ShinyCharyZard]

What Pokémon does Brock have access to now anyway?

Steelix, Geodude, Crobat, Forretress, Ludicolo, Marshtomp, Sudowoodo, Croagunk and Chansey?

I doubt Geodude will ever evolve, so that leaves Marshtomp, Croagunk and Chansey. Honestly I think that when he eventually appears, his only change will be Blissey. I always felt he should've evolved Happiny a little earlier and then quickly evolved Chansey afterwards, to show off his breeding skills and the happiness of his Pokémon. So if he returns with Blissey and a few of the older members, then that'd be good.

Croagunk, Blissey, Steelix and Marshtomp seems like a likely group for him to return with.. doubt it'll be a full team, even though I would like him to also tag on Crobat and enter a tournament.

[Rovian]

Didn't Brock give Onix/Steelix, Geodude, and Crobat to his brother?

At least one of the spots in Brock's party has been taken by a rock-type. He had Onix and Geodude in Kanto and Johto, Bonsly in Hoenn, and Sudowoodo in Sinnoh. If he returns, he would probably have Sudowoodo with him.

[pokemonsquared]

OMG any competitive battler could symphathize with me but whenever I see a blissey I want to punch it in the face.

[crawdauntpro]

I can see Brock leaving any Rock and Ground types at the Gym for Forrest to use for battles. Therefore I can see him with Chansey/Blissey, Croagunk/Toxicroak, Crobat, Ludicolo and Forretress.

[AceDetective]

Didn't Brock give Onix/Steelix, Geodude, and Crobat to his brother?.

He leaves pokemon at the gym, where there used by his brother, but there still Brocks pokemon

[Rovian]

For Onix, Geodude, and Crobat, didn't Brock say something like "they're yours now..." to his brother? Maybe that was only in the dub.

[FlyAsADunsparce]

For Onix, Geodude, and Crobat, didn't Brock say something like "they're yours now..." to his brother? Maybe that was only in the dub.

They're still in the family though. Anyone can use it really, but I guess they still belong to Brock. Just like how his mother used Ludicolo and how the Cerulean sisters can all use Seel and the other water types. I mean for Brock to leave his pokémon at the gym and forbid his brother to use them would be even weirder.

Anyway if Brock is ever showing up again I could see him with Croagunk, Blissey (if Chansey evolves), Forretress and Steelix/Sudowoodo.

It's younger Sister Chancey is a lot more evil nowadays then itself

You say he'll leave any Rock and Ground types, yet you think he'll bring Marshtomp with him, despite it being a Ground type

Woops, my bad, EDITED...

[Joltik-Kid]

Woops, my bad, EDITED...

No problem XD It was a pretty good laugh. I don't blame you though, Marshtomp always came off as just a Water type

[crawdauntpro]

My thoughts exactly, just had a memory blank, can't believe I didn't do my homework on that one though... LOL

[Vanille Fantasy]

Yet you give no examples to back up your point.

-One of the major selling points of the gen was that it was a fresh start for pokemon
-New region completely seperate from the last four
-156 new pokemon with zero connections to any from the last four gens
-A deeper, more philosophical story that was actually morally gray
-3 rivals
-Older characters
-Revamped the League
-Revamped the TM/HM system
-Revamped EXP system

[ShinyCharyZard]

I will be watching the RAW episode later this evening to clarify exactly what was said, but for now I'm pretty sure he didn't say they now belonged to Forrest.

If anything, its a shared ownership. The only thing completely under Forrest's control is the Gym itself.

After losing the ability to go on serebii for a while. I'm back. Now it's ranting time. CURSE U WRITERS WHY U GIVE KROOKODILE AERIAL ACE!. HIS MOVE-SET WAS PERFECT . Though on a brighter note it may mean unfezant will showcase another move.

How much do you want to bet the writers wrote out Crunch for Krookodile so that Scraggy could evolve and learn it?
