It might be the skintight outfits, but May & Brendan look waaaay thinner to me.

Thing is, I can easily see the rest of the starters getting their mega forms in time. ...but unless every single one gets 2, Charizard is still favored. But on the other hand, every starter getting 2 Megas would be... really over-doing it Something tells me that way in the future, when every...

Negativity time? Alright then... Never liked Charizard from a design standpoint, not as a kid, not now. Awkwardly long slender neck on top of round chubby stomach. Two tiny knobby arms dangling uselessly on the side. Add in the fact that he gets TWO mega evolutions for no conceivable reason...

The only thing that keeps me from liking Seviper is its "iconic" pose. It looks so awkward all scrunched up like that. Are there any real life snakes that frequently strike that pose? Because it looks unnaturally painful and impractical to me.

The Woobat line is utterly adorable and one of my favorites. It's just so fuzzy and happy :D. Shame that Simple Swoobat isn't as viable as I would like it would be. Also: I mean... cmon, how can you hate on something that looks THAT silly. It was never TRYING to be a cool design ok? Those...

Attract Power & Guard Swap Heal Block Copycat Any item that isn't life orb, choice stuff, leftovers, megastones etc. And pretty much any ability that's made obsolete thanks to superior alternatives.

Reading your post made me reconsider mine. I'm wondering now if I misinterpreted "immersion". What my original post is about, I realize, is more my level of investment in a game rather than immersion. Basically, I get invested in well written characters and engaging story lines. I don't think...

I'm on the same boat for Gen V. While X/Y had excellent features like 3d models and Pokemon-amie to bring your team to life, B/W is the only main series game to get me decently invested by the merit of it's storytelling alone. It's story was unusually tight and its characters were fairly...

but...but...Trubbish completes the pollution trio. Air waste - Koffing, liquid waste - Grimer, solid waste -Trubbish. And it IS adorable: Maybe I just have a soft spot for silly designs without much ambition =p. It's the designs that try to be cool and fail that I typically dislike.

I never even liked Charizard from a design standpoint =/ Awkwardly long slender neck on top of a chubby stomach. Tiny knobbly limbs that are somehow smaller than its prevolutions... Throw in the fact that it's a fan-favorite that got TWO mega evolutions and I'm really irritated. Seriously...

I pride myself in being able to ignore nostalgia when it comes to rating games despite starting Pokemon back in Gen I. Objectively speaking, I'd say Gen V was the best, more specifically BW. Storywise it had the most cohesive narrative. There were legitimate stakes and a plot that didn't come...

Yea, I'm aware of most of that. At the end of the day though, regardless of circumstance, we have a complete mess of a pokémon for all english versions of the game.

I actually really like Stunfisk because of just HOW "derpy" it is. I mean, there's no pretense with the guy. It's not a design that tried to be cool and failed, they wanted to make a silly looking pokemon and (in my opinion) they succeeded. To me, Stunfisk can not fail at something he never...

Bah! That's easy Category: Design Mr. Mime 1. You know gamefreak is running out of ideas when they decided to make a pokemon based on MIMES... owait (Sorry, I needed to take that jab at genwunners) 2. It's humanlike in the worst way. I'm glad gamefreak never touched overtly human-esque...

Well there are plenty of people that see the game as just data (which is fine obviously). I've developed a habit of playing amie for a few minutes with every newly raised team member as a bit of an initiation. GF obviously put a lot of time into this feature and it's full of fun little quirks...
