yea i know, and following on from what you said it'll be the first time, pikachu, zubat, abra, geodude and magikarp has not been in the regional pokedex

that really does suck

That doesn't suck one bit. Those Pokemon suck. I'm glad to see Zubat, Tentacool, Geodude and Magikarp go. They're known for being the 4 spam Pokes. Zubat and Geodude are just about the only thing you see in caves, and when surfing, all you find are Magikarp and Tentacool. And I don't care about Pikachu, Abra, Geodude and all the others.

I like it.

Zubat, Magikarp, and abra are amazing, Pikachu and geodude are terrible though, Im gonna hate having to play through the game with nothing but those repulsive generation 5 pokemon (zekrom and tsutaja, and that large bird thing, thats all I like).

On a News note: The high link function works via local wireless, and when you join a high link room, everything will become shades of gray. While in the High link, you will be able to walk around with your friend in most areas of Isshu.

we're expecting mass news coming at the end of ths week into next week so be prepared

on an off-topic note, the pokedex and routes make it seem more like GEN 1

also, sorry for double posting

in the high link there are a variety of missions for you to partake in to help or hinder your friends

How in the world can they be amazing?! Yeah, Abra is pretty good. But Zubat and Magikarp are some of the Pokemon I hate most (besides Infernape, of course. I can't hate anything more than that), because of how much the games spam them.

if only GEN 5 pokemon are gonna be in the regional pokedex, they better have at least 130 pokemon

Iirc, they said the new national dex total amount would be 650. Which means 157 new Pokes. (I'm not positive, though.)

actually GEN 1 had 151 pokemon, then i think continuing from my last post GEN 5 should have 130-150 pokemon, maybe more

I wasn't talking about gen 1.

I meant that iirc, someone said that the national dex would have 650 Pokemon in it, including 5th gen. And since 4th gen stopped at 493, 650 - 493 = 157
Meaning there are 157 new Pokemon in 5th gen, assuming there are gonna be 650 Pokes in the national dex

yea, but i'm saying, who was it that said that there would be 650, because that could be unconfirmed

also (off-topic - what does iirc mean, because if it an abrieviation.........)

I don't remember who said it.

And IIRC = If I Remember Correctly

A mod has to make this official!!!! :p

You're not a mod, so you don't have the authority to do that!

I, Lugia, am now making this topic OFFICIALLY official.

[/joke]

Anyway, what do you think we'll be getting in CoroCoro?

minimoose made this officially official lol

well, last month they mentioned something called a "master document" which means we could get a good deal of info on the new games

^Ah yes, that sounds interesting.

*waits impatiently for leaks*

yea, we could get them as early as this weekend, though we don't want like the first person to find out to post all info though - lol

there is a new attack for victini - "complete burn" - details are unknown at this time

Hrm, maybe that's like a fire-type Toxic?

probably, that info was found within a flyer at mcdonalds in japan about the liberty ticket event

Yeah, we'll likely get more when CoroCoro leaks. (Which could be as soon as tomorrow.)

and the corocoro this month wi[[ contain a master document which means a [ot of news coming, and i (and others) don't want the first person to find out to post a[[ the info, but i think it'[[ come in waves, a [itt[e bit of info at a time

Yeah, that's how it normally occurs.

* Darumakka (ダルマッカ) is a Fire-type and the supposed pre-evolution of Hihidaruma.
* Another new Pokemon revealed but not pictured is Basurao (バスラオ), which knows Aqua Jet and Uproar.
* Shikijika (the previously revealed deer) is a Normal / Grass-type and has Chlorophyll as its ability. Its appearance changes according to the seasons: in the spring it is pink (like the Ken Sugimori artwork), in the summer it is green, in the fall it is orange, and winter's color is unknown.
* Growth (an attack in GEN 1) now seems to raise Special Attack and Attack by one stage.
