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

[Demon Kitsune Yoko Kurama]

I think this is the first time I've seen a Hydreigon figure.

There is some truth in this statement, in an issue of Nintendo Dream they named the 30 most popular Unova Pokemon according to an Official Poll.


1. Chandelure
2. Whimsicott
3. Reshiram
4. Reuniclus
5. Hydreigon
6. Serperior
7. Snivy
8. and 9. Oshawott and Joltik (tie)
10. Lilligant
11. Zekrom
12. Galvantula
13. Pansage
14. Scollipede
15. Volcarona
16. Emolga
17. and 18. Zoroark and Litwick (tie)
19. and 20. Victini and Minccino (tie)
21. and 22. Haxorus and Bisharp (tie)
23. Tympole
24. Samurott
25. Audino
26. Zorua
27. Stunfisk
28. Mienshao
29. Cofagrigus
30. Vanilluxe

However the thing to remember about this poll is it really isn't super relevant anymore since it was conducted back in May of 2011 so this list most likely was subject to some change overtime.

Scolipede, Cofagrigus and Chandelure were popular? How droll. It is sure to change now.

It seems all the "reserves" are getting new moves or a likely evolution if they can.
Speedwings: Heat Wave, Air Slash or Sky Attack?
Veggie Madien: X-Scissor
Bosstoad: Sludge Bomb? (look back at the animation for Clay's Paplitoad. I wouldn't be surprised if it was.)
Rocky Road: Evolution + Superpower/Solarbeam/Earth Power? It will probably stay the same which is okay in my opinion as it is good as it.
Krok N' Roll: Aerial Ace. YOUR MOVESET IS BASED OFF TMs! HARHAR!

Maybe the N saga
Wotter Popularus: Ice Beam.
Roasted Pork: Arm Thrust/Low Sweep
Smugsnake: ANYTHING BUT ANOTHER GRASS MOVE DAMNIT!
ScragzNRagz: Iron head or Head Smash......( Lost my hope in him getting a dark move ever since Krok N' Roll likely lost crunch for Aerial Ace)

I think this is the first time I've seen a Hydreigon figure.

We actually had a lot of Hydreigon stuff last movie when it appeared and it has been promoted along with the others dragons for some months, him/Charizard/Dragonite being the ones that appears much.

Btw Japan hates Tepig guys look at yet another figure it got, they hate him!!!!

He's still a Starter in spite of it all so they're still going to try and use him.

Point is none hates it, its not as popular as the other two, there is a big diference and they usually promote popular pokemon, it still appears in quite a few BW merch and it evolved to Pignite a long time ago.

Honestly if Tepigs line wasn't part fighting, people would probably like him more lol.

Looking at them they definetly look like figthing types, so does the Oshawott line though but yeah 3 fire figthing starters in a row is kinda overdoing it but I like the pokemon its the only one that makes sense from Tepig to Emboar.

But yeah most people would be like AWWWW no another one...

I personally am fine with it and think each starter should have two types but that's the main reason people don't like him as much.

Kinda think a Samurai should be a figthing type like I said and not lose mobility by not being able to stand like before.

Serperior could have been a poison type or something, no way a dragon type(like some people suggested back when it was revealed) because thats a huge advantage over any other starter.

Well as someone who used Serperior in Volt White, it really isn't very hard to kill even with the Dragon Typing.

[Demon Kitsune Yoko Kurama]

Yep, I was one of those people who thought it would be Grass/Dragon. xD

Doesn't help that the writers gave it a Dragon move lol.

[Street Comedy]

Serperior could've been a great poison type.

Emboar should've been part ground and Samurott should've been part fighting.

[Joltik-Kid]

Doesn't help that the writers gave it a Dragon move lol.

It's learns most of the good ones minus Draco Meteor, Dragon Dance, and Dragon Rush (Charizard sorta is the same, but has access to DD and DR)

Lol whats that a fanmade game(googles yeah it is).

The typing is still a huge advantage against the other two, Charizard is probably not a dragon type for the same reason, the dragon typing resist a lot of stuf and doesn't have that many weaknesses.

[ShinyCharyZard]

Eh, they should've made the starters have different secondary types. Probably would've made them more popular..

Serperior - Grass/Psychic
Emboar - Fire/Dark
Samurott - Water/Fighting

Those typings would've suited them all very well IMO..

Meh, Serperior still doesn't learn the moves it needs to do anything anyways so it wouldn't really matter. Charizard on the other hand would be a monster although I think it is still affected by rock types right??

[Umbilical Noose]

You mean the developers, right? Too much time in Anime I guess.

Since you are talking about games in here Charizard is not a monster. Even that Solar Power Charizard sucks.

I mean that he learns an attack to counter most of his weaknesses if I remember correctly lol.

No I mean the writers, I was referring to Trip's Serperior.

Serperior's move pool is rather limited so him being a dragon type wouldn't be too bad.

Won't work. One Ice Shard and it would be begging for mercy.

Besides Dragon Type Pokemon usually get a nice movepool even the likes of Crimgan and Altaria.
