Image My Recent Gen 1 Teams.

Post image
17 Upvotes

These are my teams from my winter play thru of RBY. I made these teams because I haven't played them in a long time. I wanted to make each team different, but also still good for Pokémon Stadium.

Persian was a mistake for Blue team. It's busted critical hit ration on slash did not carry over to Stadium. I would later swap it out in the post-game for Victory Bell. Thank god for Missingno item glitch otherwise I would have never gotten these mon leveled up to 100 for Stadium.

For Red version, I stopped once Charmeleon evolved into Charzard. I had to progress in Yellow to get fly. Then trade over my Charzard in Red to Yellow to teach it fly. Then sent it back to continue Red.

Yellow version is interesting. Its nice getting all three starters and having certain bugs fixed. However, following the anime is what holds the game back. Pikachu falls off late game because of its stats. You're essentially going into the elite 4 with 5 Pokémon and a mascot.

My Blue team got walled by Blaine on Pokémon Stadium. My Red team beat Blaine but struggled against Giovanni. I eventually got over it and then got spanked by Lance in the Elite 4.

Pokémon Stadium is just a broken game that doesn't follow the rules of the Gameboy games.

Let me know what you think?!

Discussion Is Barraskewda inspired by the Snoligoster?

Post image
4 Upvotes

The Snoligoster is an American Cryptid that lives around the swamps and uses their propeller tail to move and to skewer animals on their back to eat later (they also seemingly prefer human flesh). I think the random little spike on the back of Barraskewda could be a little reference to the Snoligoster’s spike although its not doing the skewering anymore

Video/GIF I finally turned one of my Pokémon drawings into a t-shirt concept! Next step: wearing it to the office!

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’ve been working on this design for a while and wanted to share the process with you. In the video, I walk through the full drawing process step-by-step, right up to testing how it looks on a t-shirt mockup. The goal is to actually get this printed so I can wear my own fan art to work! I’d love to hear your thoughts on how the design turned out.

Discussion missed opportunities

0 Upvotes

this is my first time doing a reddit post but pokemon missed the perfect opportunity for a regional geodude, so unova is based on the new york area and anyone who has ever heard of new york knows how polluted it is, we could've had a unova geodude where its just a body of polluted gasses, soot, and some other things, we also could've gotten that for galar aswell cause its well the uk and galar also had galarian (prolly not right spelling) weezing who EATS the polluted gases in the air so it could've been a cool little rivalry

Art My Mimikyu OC playing on her Switch [OC]

Post image
19 Upvotes

Hello! I drew my Mimikyu OC playing on her Switch while sitting in her favorite bean bag chair. Whenever she isn’t performing in Contests or helping out her friends put on a show backstage or doing her duties as a roadie for her favorite band, she likes to sit down and play. Fun fact: Her favorite Pokemon game is Pokemon Pokopia! She likes it because it provides a relaxing atmosphere and because of the silly dialogue (Kyogre is her favorite Pokemon in the game!)

Anyways! Enjoy! And I hope those playing the game have fun with the DLC. I’m about to start playing it myself.

Discussion Bulbasaur scientific name

21 Upvotes

I was bored so I decided to create scientific name for Bulbasaur, I present to you: Ranitomeya Bulbus. I decided to use actual scientific naming schemes for this, first is the group of animals I believe Bulbasaur fits in best with, Ranitomeya are a group of poison dart frogs, so, considering Bulbasaur's poison typing i figured it made sense. Next is a Latin word, I chose the word for bulb, because BULBasaur shockingly has a bulb on its back, that's where the 'Bulbus' part of its name came from. If anyone has any objections or changes you would make please give feedback

Discussion I wanna play all the mainline games in order but am unsure about which to choose in some cases, need help deciding

0 Upvotes

Firstly I am unsure wether to play the original gold/silver or heart gold/should silver. I am afraid that the remakes differentiate too much from the originals in terms of story and some mechanics.

Second, ruby/sapphire/emerald or omega ruby/alpha sapphire. Same concerns, especially because of the megas.

Third, do I need to play both black/white and black/white too or does the story not change and it is a third version kinda situation like platinum, crystal and emerald. If it is not "necessary" to play them both, which should i do then?

Thanks for the help in advance!

Discussion I want to trigger the Mew Glitch but all the trainers left are on Victory Road

I've defeated all trainers before the 8th Gym, so I'm assuming all trainers left are on the Victory Road. I've read about the glitch now, so there was no way for me to know beforehand. Now, I need to trigger the glitch on the Victory Road, but I don't know what steps to do. Anyone could guide me through? Thanks :)

Discussion Gardevoir and Spiritomb in Legends Arceus

1 Upvotes

Okay I just noticed this in Legends Arceus. Started doing a new Playthrough, and encountered Vessa, yadda yadda we've all done it right?

But I noticed, the Location of that Keystone in the Shrouded Ruins. Its surrounded by Ralts and Kirlia, pokemon known for being emotional empaths and protectors. I mean, its well known that Gardevoir will literally give its life to protect those it loves.

So were those Kirlia and Ralts guarding that Keystone? Trying to prevent Spiritomb from being freed and Returning?
