• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    The developers pretty much never retcon things other than movepool, and even movepools they tend to leave alone. Dragon's also pretty clearly a late addition, so it plausibly could have been meant to be water/dragon. But it's still water/flying and water/flying it shall remain.

    Yeah, okay, snout works for vine snake for snivy (though less so for its evolutions, I think). ... but also works for grass lizard. That works, but my point's more that I am bothered by people who insist it's a snake after I inform them of the existence of grass lizards.

    Cyndaquil's called a Fire Mouse. Doesn't make it true! Pikachu's based on a pika? It doesn't really look like it. I mean, I've heard people say that, but I think that's just because of spelling. Pretty sure 'pika' as in the animal is pronounced 'paika', too. I'd think gerbil or maybe...

    SNIVY AND ITS EVOLUTIONS ARE NOT SNAKES. They are GRASS LIZARDS. If I hear one more person argue with me on this subject, I will probably beat them to death. What Pokémon misidentifications piss you off?
