Daily Pokemon Discussions

Again, I never played the third generation, so I can't give much feedback. Although it's dumb that its signature move is special, whilst its attack is higher. o_O
I don't understand. Treecko doesn't have a signature move, and its ATK is 45 (whereas SpA is 65). Unless you're referring to Leaf Blade (which Treecko does not learn), in which case Sceptile's SpA is still 105 vs. 85.
 
I read the entirety of this thread.

I was going to post last midnight, before those in a close time zone woke up to see the new Pokémon of the day, but the server was too busy. I am nocturnal. I had to wait until now to post, while the server was down. Please do not have another Pokémon of the day, until twenty-four hours after this post.

Tomorrow's Pokémon-of-the-day is a double feature: Latias and Latios. I will give someone else the honor of posting a gorgeous picture or two.

Latios is male, blue and white, and has a red triangle on his chest. Latias is female, red and white, and has a blue triangle on her underside. Latios and Latias have different hair styles. Latios is bigger than Latias. These two have identical numerical statistics, except that Latios has very slightly higher offense, while Latias has insignificantly higher defense.

Latias and Latios are fat, psychic dragons with thick, long necks, airplane-like wings, and feathery rears. The "Latis" have no legs. Sometimes, they have arms; sometimes they don't.

Latias and Latios are so cute, beautiful and protective. I want to hug, squeeze, kiss, and love them. <3<3<3<3
 
Psychic bird/dragon jet plane whatevers. Are they supposed to be the guardian deities of a city? I know there are younger legendaries, but still...

I suspect there are people who ship them as lovers. Well, anything can happen on the Internet, but this is still a bit creepy.
 
Pictures.

Jet planes. Never used them, don't care much about them, but they're pretty so yay?

Also new day, new Pokemon. And since today's Valentine's Day, how about Luvdisc?

*obligatory comment about how Luvdisc should evolve into Alomomola*

Luvdisc is pretty bad in basically every way. It has bad stats, a bland typing, a boring design, and has its main use (providing Heart Scales) revoked after one Gen.
 
Hey I still use Luvdisc to farm heart scales! >:(

Latias and Latios are the best ever, some of my favorite legendaries. Particularly Latios, who is just amazing.

Nobody is posting in this decelerating thread that has been extremely popular, so I am initiating.

When you wake up, the Pokémon-of-the-day is Golem. Somebody please tell me how to post an image, without making a link.

Golem is a big, explosive boulder with stubby head, hands, and feet. It looks like it would be very hard for him to balance while standing. If he rolls, how do his limbs respond to the rolling?

Golem evolves from Graveler by being traded. Graveler evolves from Geodude by level. Players are expressing frustration over Pokémon who evolve by trade. Do you wish you lived next to other Pokémon fans?
 
If you just want a sprite use [sprite=GAME]POKEMON[/sprite]. The Game codes are RS, E, DP, Pt, HGSS, and BW. For example Golem's Black/White sprite would be [sprite=bw]golem[/sprite] and its Platinum sprite would be [sprite=pt]golem[/sprite]. There's a more detailed sprite tutorial somewhere with item codes and stuff, but I can't seem to find it.

Go to veekun, look up the Pokemon, scroll down to "Flavour," click on "detailed flavor page covering all versions" , then right-click on the sprite/artwork you want and click "Copy image URL". Then type [img]*paste url here*[/img]. For example if I did that for Espeon's conquest art, I'd type in [img]http://veekun.com/dex/media/pokemon/conquest/196.png[/img], which would become

Golem. I always trade with my sister for trade evolutions, so it's not really a problem for me.

Golem had its moment of glory back in gen 1 when more specialised Rocks and Grounds were yet to exist, but even then, it had stiff competition from Rhydon -- which I find to be a far more interesting Pokémon.

It's not much to look at, and it's difficult to use. So I guess Golem is pretty down there, all things considered.
 
Some sort of tortoise that has no scales because it's also a boulder. Looks a bit smoother than Graveler. I am better acquainted with the pre-evos.

I think he can retract his head and limbs.

Those Rock/Ground types got tougher with the new version of the Sturdy ability.
 
The fact that Golem has an animal-like head and limbs always made it look weird next to its pre-evos. Other than that, I never really use Rock-types, so yeah.
