Are you from gen 1-7? Because you're essential IsForMe

civic harness
#

And this channel still exist?

lament tundra
#

There are more new pokemon to discuss. Meloetta, Cresselia and Bruxish are coming.

civic harness
#

This channel was made to defend your favorite pokemon, shout when one premieres, and then party or lament depending on the surprise

#

But all that is over (I think) and well, I see that there are more memes than anything else, as well as discussions about the Pokemon that didnt get the IF and their gens

#

Very nice place

stuck bane
#

It will at least stay until meloetta/cresselia/bruxish are added, maybe a few days after the update since people will probably be asking, and maybe more if they decide to give more drips of new Pokémon each month or so

civic harness
#

Anyway, it was fun while it lasted

#

KAJAJJA

uneven geyser
#

All I could ask is just get the rest of gen 3 in

proud lion
#

Once the update releases and they confirm no new mons will be added for a while, will the channel be archived?

#

I hope they atleast Archive it

white meadow

nah they are def still announcing more ofc!

You’re four levels lower not you

Also, we should add the unova weather trio

I will admit I was wrong. Congrats.

#playthrough-talk this is not the channel for stuff like that

#

ok :((

prime dust
#

this channel is to talk about new mons yet to be added, or future mons that might get added

frail lynx
#

oh

#

sorry :((

sinful finch

What about the uvona Trio?

#

I want them in the game

Oh man. Now you are talking the low tiers. That one is hard to push for

Also in a way you come here and discuss what would be good to add not only as regular runs but also showdown competitive

# atomic pawn "b-but luvdisc has potential"

The current list of reasons is only water type with heart stamp, and fusion names like Mr. Disc and Luv Jr., those are the 2 freebies, I’m just asking you to match what I bring to the table

uneven geyser
#

Yeah I think I meant the rest of hoen’s appealing Pokemon

You just need to find 2 more reasons

See? So we shouldn’t add the entirety of hoenn, most is fine, but people gotta watch what they say else it comes true

i still want round boi tho

#

Design wise they're basically 3/4 for the price of 6 🥹

uneven geyser
#

In response to this list I just circled what I hope makes the cut, I agreed with food poisoning, don’t need them

Emolga with arbok or seviper getting in too could make a tobi kadachi parody

I'm upset we're never getting weed cat into the game, such a waste of a perfectly good weed cat

prime dust
#

then learn how to code in rpg maker xp, learn the custom code Frogman made the IF, then do one of the following:

  • remake the game from scratch with the above using V21 or higher of Pokemon Essentials
  • use the game as is as a base, find a way to upgrade the V18 PE we are running on to V21+
  • use the game as is as a base, find a way to downgrade V21+ PE to V18

I’m okay not having G9, made me sad the franchise pulled a cyberpunk 2077

prime dust
#

you'd be surprised how many people aren't joking about wanting gen 8 and 9...then i tell them that...they vanish into the fabric of the void

uneven geyser
#

I’ll ignore gen 8 too then

glass patio
#

@tight plume were u joking

stuck bane
#

I just say “see pins”

glass patio
#

i just

uneven geyser
#

I looked at the roster for 8 and 9, and think, yeah no need, but I still like grimmsnarl and toxtricity and some g9 but yeah 1-7 is enough

stuck bane
#

Yeah, there’s another thing too, barring regional forms which probably won’t happen, the Gen 8 roster especially is pretty bland, there’s a handful of good things from that Gen but it won’t be worth all the time it takes to get them in anyways

uneven geyser
#

Yeah especially how disappointing the G8 fossils were

glass patio
#

bro gen 8 i dont like much i kinda like appletun tho
and gen 9 idk i like clodsire but thats a regional and we alr got quagsire which can be used for clod fusions so idk maybe dipplin/hydrapple funny candy apples

uneven geyser
#

I’m just glad tyrantrum made the cut

tight plume

#

Gens 8 and 9 would make good additions overall

uneven geyser
#

I can live without my chonky boy, (the fire croc)

prime dust
#

meh

fresh salmon
#

I mean, most of those rosters are a bit filler, but the standouts do make good additions

uneven geyser
#

Nah

fresh salmon
#

And in the end not the entire gen 8/9 dex would make it in

glass patio
#

i’m also not a fan of gen 8-9 starters

#

from gen 8 ig i’d pick sobble because gun not much else

prime dust
#

gen 8 starters are just bleh, gen 9...the only thing i like is the pepper croc

uneven geyser
#

Yeah compared to previous gens they’re not as good

fresh salmon
#

9 would make good fusions, 8 well, Inteleon has potential but that's it

tight plume
#

I mean I like the sprigatito line, gen 8 and 9 just have the weakest roster overall

uneven geyser
#

I wished rillaboom was more Kong than drummer

fresh salmon
#

It's not that all gens are like that

glass patio
fresh salmon
#

Gen 5 is also a mix between banger designs and gen 1 2.0

glass patio
#

true

#

i still like it tho

fresh salmon
#

same

uneven geyser
#

I still like gothitelle despite it’s just goth gardevoir

uneven geyser
#

I’m hoping some new additions give fusion results for a velociraptor

tight plume
#

as long as we eventually get popplio and snivy, all my favourite 3 starters of the 3 types will be in the game

uneven geyser
#

Don’t know why arbok and golem make an ankylosaurus but I’m not complaining

glass patio
tight plume
#

I like rowlet, buuut I like snivy more than rowlet

glass patio
#

i mean serperior is cool but smh smh

tight plume
#

if there was a pokemon game where the starters were snivy, popplio, and cyndaquil, then I could not choose and I would just die within the first 10 seconds

glass patio
#

if there was a pokemon game where the starters were rowlet, oshawott and cyndaquil, then i could not choose and i would just die within the first 10 seconds
oh nvm that game alr exists
but i prefer the regular forms over the hisuian ones smh

#

literally those r my 3 fav starters lol

tight plume
#

I like hisuian typhlosion, chill vibes

glass patio
#

idk from hisui i’d just pick oshawott

glass patio
tight plume
#

I'm biased towards fire types
popplio, rowlet, snivy, piplup and sprigatito are the exceptions

mortal gate
#

Look, I'm just asking for a second (non-sequel) game to have Snivy as an option 😭

#

Though Hisui Typhlosion was really pretty

glass patio
#

meh it’s weird

tight plume
#

IF should replaced charmander, bulbasaur and squirtle with tepig, snivy and oshawott, that's my opinion

glass patio
tight plume
#

(even if they aren't lore-wise supposed to be in the game, shhhhutup)

glass patio
#

meh fair i’d like to start with oshawott katten_dabben

fresh salmon

#

legends kyurem katten_dabben

tight plume
#

then I'd have a reason to pick the grass type, I don't like bulbasaur very much

the og dragon katten_dabben

I feel that Snivy/Litten/Totodile would make a solid selection

unova remakes for gen 10 fr

mortal gate

I'd still likely buy an play it, lord knows I'm heavy invested in pokemon at this point (every single game, including non-main series (love me some PMD)). I just hope the next entry in the main franchise reignites the spark a bit more. PIF has been holding me over ❤️

#spriter-general message
This video in sproter genreal is why we don’t need gen 9

fresh salmon
#

Grookey/Torchic/Froakie would be the trio if the gen is just one more as the previous in starter trio

tight plume
#

what would your guys' nightmare starter pick be, mine would probably be chimchar, chikorita, quaxly

gray vine
#

what does this mean

glass patio
fresh salmon
glass patio
#

like idk legends arceus alr used up my top 3 fav starters

mortal gate
#

Chespin, Litten, Sobble/Froakie

tight plume
#

I don't mean legends, I just mean generally, if a game had 3 starters, what starters would make you shut off the game and never touch it again

gray vine
#

none

mortal gate
#

If a game had those, I'd literally never be able to pick one. All of them make me want to not play the game :😂

tight plume
#

so you're telling me you don't have starters that you just don't like at all?

gray vine
#

i like the starters even if usually wouldnt pick em, if you dont like the starter, just dont use it

glass patio
fresh salmon
#

If the Legends esque game is set on Unova the Pokemon trio I'd see most probably is Grookey/Torchic/Popplio

tight plume
#

or at least make you catch a rattata so you can box your starter

fresh salmon
#

Are Rowlet, Cyndaquil and Oshawott from Sinnoh?

mortal gate
#

Oshawott is unova

tbh if Chikorita ends up being the grass starter I wouldn't mind at all if the Meganium form is decent in battle

but im gonna evolve my mons and delphox is uggo

fresh salmon

I mean...Delphox is still definitely better than 🤢 Incineroar

prime dust

#

Or w/e the heck Tepig evolves into

I feel that if Fennekin progressed to more Ninetales-esque mon it would be different

mortal gate
#

Agreed! I wish more mons that started on 4 legs would end on 4 legs.

#

i didn't mind emboar

tight plume
#

sobble, grookey, and litten would also be pretty bad
tepig, chespin, and froakie I don't like either

Emboar is cool

Unova starters are underrated

glass patio

false, I love snivy

Serperior my beloved

fresh salmon
#

I like both snivy and oshawott

#

Emboar looks like a new Digimon designers idea of fakemon 😓. Same for Incineroar

Eh, emboar has more personality

I usually dont mind the humanoid starters, but quaxly, incineroar, and delphox suck

tight plume
#

I don't like the spicy toothpaste

mortal gate
#

Quaquavel is okay, purely because the feathers that appear when it attacks. But like...Quaxly feels like someone tried to cash in on the "queer theater kid glow up" trope, but had no idea what they were doing.

wanton cliff
#

Primarina is cool

glass patio
wanton cliff
#

I think infernape is overrated

mortal gate
#

All the new starters are just okay imo. Skeledirge I like because at least it looks like an animal, and not just another anthro.

I loved Oshawott's line until I saw how tall Samurott is. I love short kings but like...damn.

glass patio
wanton cliff
#

Meowscarada is the best anthro starter imo

glass patio
#

sinnoh has a great trio

tight plume
#

sprigatito is the only gen 9 starter that evolves into something that doesn't look offensive to my eyes, meowscarada is cool even if furrybait

wanton cliff
mortal gate
#

What I'd give to see a mega form for Meowscarada

fresh salmon
#

tbh Inteleon is not that bad either, I like the concept, it just didn't execute that well

wanton cliff
#

Cats are sneaky animals

tight plume
mortal gate
#

AGREE

wanton cliff
#

Why did they have to make delphic bad

tight plume
#

plus terastallize is by far the WORST gimmick in the series, literally shiny + hat

fresh salmon
wanton cliff
#

Braxien is the peak of that line

fresh salmon
#

I didn't include Z-moves because I understand that's a gimmick exclusive to the alola games

wanton cliff
glass patio
fresh salmon
#

I miss the days where Kangaskhan and Mawile were playable

wanton cliff
#

Terapagos is also my child, so

fresh salmon
#

tbh Tera pokemon shouldn't have gotten the hats, just the crystal texture

wanton cliff
#

Yeah

mortal gate
#

The newest gimmicks aren't about implementing things that are interesting to players, their about cost and production time reductions. Making a few new sprites for gigantimax wasn't much. Adding moves that all had the same animations for all types was easy and streamlined things. Terra forms are effectively a layer added to each sprite, and likely don't take much either. None of them give "special forms", they just give a new gloss / coat of paint over an existing Pokemon.

tight plume
#

I wish pokemon cared more about quality than quantity

mortal gate
#

Agreed.

wanton cliff
#

They dont need new form for a gimmick to work, they just need to have interesting gameplay, and terra does that

tight plume
#

arceus was the only recent pokemon game that I liked a lot

wanton cliff
#

Not every gimmck should just be, its mega, but we called it something else

tight plume
mortal gate
#

I wish one of the next games would be something set in an old continent - just a new story. Give us a couple new mons that have been discovered in the area, and a really well fleshed out gimmick (cough, mega evolution returning, cough) and a solid story. We have visited enough places for now. Work towards fleshing out the world and maybe a penultimate "all continents" game of some kind one day.

I know I'm on hopeium posting this lol, but I've Pokemon taught me how to read and I've always wanted something like this 😅

tight plume
#

I personally just wish gamefreak still cared

wanton cliff
#

I just want then to learn more into the cosmic horror angle with the story

mortal gate
#

Maybe we need an "Obsidian" style company to get rights to make a game? Like Obsidian did with Bethesda.

I'd put my vote towards Spike / Chunsoft, as they've done an amazing job with the PMD games.

wanton cliff
#

Necrozma is my second favourite legendary bc it's one of the few recent ones that actually feels, legendary

It and terapagos

I want more aliens

we have a few alien mons tbh

#

So if we're getting a Unova remake, do you think it'll be just B/W, or will it be B/w/B2/W2

fresh salmon
mortal gate
#

I would kill for a pokemon game to look like Octopath

wanton cliff
#

I would kill for one to have style

fresh salmon
glass patio
mortal gate
#

Or a seperate game altogether

fresh salmon
wanton cliff
#

Personally, my fakemon region is a b/w style soft reboot, with only new pokemon, and pokemon that get new forms/ evos

fresh salmon
#

But tbh if ILCA gets to make BW, the most safe prediction is that they'll make a faithful BW remake with the Entralink having the BW2 dex mons as wild mons being encounterable in the main game before the postgame

#

Which would be even worse than BDSP, since BW1's purpose is that only Unova mons are used and bringing that from BW2 would kill that

#

While also killing all BW2 adds as a game

Hesitant agreement. Mankey and Primeape were really good, though.

Monkes aren't the best but my boi is perfect the way it is. Before we only had Primeape

wanton cliff
#

Anihlape is the only one I like

mortal gate
#

I'm not the biggest chimchar / infernape fan, but then again it just looks like Sun Wukong as a pokemon. I knew we'd get a version of that eventually, I just didn't expect it to have Hades from Hercules hair as well 😕

And orangutan pokemon sounds good on paper and the execution is kinda eh

wanton cliff
#

Yeah

silent acorn
mortal gate
#

I'm a huge fan of Asian fantasy and literature. JttW has a huge cultural impact on art over there, so depictions of Wukong are pretty standard. Infernape is, unfortunately, Pokemon's spin on Sun Wukong. They just took his staff..and all connections to his lore..Ugh. So many cool things could've been done for a SWK in pokemon. Instead they burned it on a starter that they've since abandoned.

silent acorn

Thats what I'm saying. He should've had a staff.

I think a fire type tube worm mon would be cool tbh

I just want more animal pokemon. Snakes, cats that stay on 4 legs, etc etc

A tube worm is an animal

there should be more parasitoid pokemon

there’s many pokemon that i think would be cool if they got added like oshawott but if they just added minior that’d be enough for me

Still I like lopunny more. Has more style

I ran diggersby in my team a lot more than Loppuny

#

the utility is so much more

silent acorn
#

Well let me keep working on my Gen 3 list for points

#

I put walrein at a 1 mostly because like the slots used on spheal and sealeo aren't really worth it. Walrein is where the price is at. And I mean on the context of community vote because of the constraint of slots for every batch

#

Alright grumpig is like second hand goods tier. What to do with it.

stuck bane
#

Diggersby tho, C tier at least for the meme alone

silent acorn
#

Hmmm up is like s, then a, orange is like b and yellow C I think

#

Alright points for the chungus... Hmmm

#

Well it does have huge power as hidden, does get a few nice utility moves. Gives one ground type, and another normal which, eh fine. Has some moves super fang and such... I am feeling maybe a... 1 or 2.
Its not horrible to deserve a 0, even though i think it's hideous, but I like bunnies. So I think it's workable even if not perfect

#

combine two ugly fudgers and you get something decent.

#

looks fine so I think spriters could get creative.

#

volcanion would be kinda fire tho

and kinda water

Explain to me why on Iwattas tomb that thing has Solar Power as a HA?

#

Dry skin is ridiculously good for mixing with a fire type tho.

Helio = Sun 🙂

#

water absorb but you take more damage from fire

inland jewel
#

electric/fire type with water immunity

white meadow
#

and heals in rain ig

inland jewel
#

stab thunder in rain

silent acorn
#

I mean that only tells me that Solar Power is pretty bad in general.

silent acorn
white meadow
#

i mean stab thunder in rain is pretty reductive, it's not like other mons can't do that

#

also lanturn has water absorb too

inland jewel
#

but with dry skin he gets water immunity and he wont have to worry to much about fire types

#

lanturn gets more milage out of volt though

weak trellis
#

late but gen 5 weather war mon that showed up before nerfs were rolled out

white meadow
#

wym, dry skin would make you worry about fire types more

inland jewel
#

not in rain though, which is what this scenario is

#

Heliolisk fusion in rain, gets stab thunder that can't miss, can go against water types that can't attack him with STAB or Rain boost, and won't have to worry about fire types so Dryskin's downside is mitigated

zinc prairie
#

that's the problem with Heliolisk, putting it in Sun kills off 2 of its moves (Thunder is 50 acc in Sun, Surf that is meant for Grounds is gone), Rain with Dry Skin on a mon that is paper thin is AYO a mon that needs weather for it to have an ability and can't carry its own weight is sort of dead in the water; in a casual PIF playthrough you're almost always taking the other fusion' piece's ability unless you're dedicating another teamslot to weather

inland jewel
#

the simple solution is just don't use that fusion when sun is out

#

alternatively fuse it with a mon that won't be as punished if it was in the sun

#

electric/fire with water immunity and can still utilize sun is still a thing

white meadow
#

it would be so funny if fusions could have two abilities

inland jewel
silent acorn
#

So I raised Heliliosk behind Meowstic I still don't like the design

#

revised tier

zinc prairie
#

you'd want Solar Power as a Fire type in Sun more for POWER

silent acorn
#

Alternatively you could get Electric/Rock. That way you resist water even in rain and also resist fire it would also resist steel types

hushed mantle
inland jewel
#

Heliolisk will be a head pokemon, which the head is electric since the primary type is Electric

elfin goblet
#

i still want spheal and espurr in

zinc prairie
silent acorn
#

ground still a pain? when has it not been one?

#

This is still very reliable and quite a troll on rain imagine that. Because even if the foe uses thunder on you it isn't gonna do much

#

Still this very close to one of the best typying in the game

inland jewel
silent acorn
#

Let me test a theorem

This right here. Is the ultimate troll move. Not only do you resist but you also hit back agaisnt those

i feel like a move that isn't just parabolic to damage others

#

but yee, idea was to make use of its advantages in rain but also some answers to if it gets caught in the sun

silent acorn
#

This one is the stall combo

#

Granted get rain going and you can replace parabolic with Thunder along with sleep talk for buffing

inland jewel
#

there are multiple good sets for it

silent acorn
#

It doesn't look it but being able to use moves asleep prevents you from getting paralyzed and poisoned

#

Also burn only debuffs atk and you can get rid of it by sleeping

#

Main idea is, go in, buff once with quiver dance, do it again if you can, rest, sleep talk, use thunder

#

And then you can sweep. By then your speed is enough to get rid of newcomers into the field

#

Agaisnt special attackers the quiver dance will cover for you, skill swapping would be one weakness. Trick room could also mess you up

I don’t do PVP and don’t really understand most of the terms, but this hypothetical heilolisk fusion sounds terrifying

Belly drum unburden with the sitrus berry is probably the play? But STAB drain punch probably allows that to be a bit more flexible if you’re feeling risky.

Bruh Samugly is a funny dude, but I think the flinch strats should be left to the serene grace users who get 60%+ flinch chances, not to mention having 2 water type moves makes you hard countered by ghost fused with anything resisting/immune to water, which is a lot considering how popular ghost types are compared to every other type

This however seems disgusting, super fang for half hp, doubled power stab brine if super fang works, and then surf and air slash if you run into a ghost type

Total type counts for Pokemon in the game (Updated as of Cresselia announcement)

Grass - 19 (+3)
Fire - 18 (+1)
Water - 34 (+3)
Ice - 11 (+4)
Bug - 18 (+1)
Flying - 26 (+5)

Ghost - 14 (+6)
Fighting - 12 (+4)
Psychic - 23 (+5)
Dark - 13 (+3)
Dragon - 16* (+6)
Fairy - 12

A few things i should note about how caffeine counted it:

  • Only final evolutions count. If a line has multiple final evolutions, they're counted seperately. If a line loses a typing when it evolves, it still counts (e.g. Scyther, Onix)
  • If a mon doesn't transfer its typing during fusion, it doesn't count (e.g. Dragonite's flying type, Legendary bird's flying type, all Normal/Flying type's Normal typing)
  • *Dragon types despite being in the double digits is highly inflated by multiple legendaries, all of which are only available post game. Not counting legendaries, there are only 7 dragon types.
  • The numbers in brackets are what will be added to the count with the new mons
  • Counted the 4 Oricorio typings as only 1 Flying type
  • Counted Necrozma as 1 psychic type since the form has the same typing

# next flare Total type counts for Pokemon in the game (Updated as of Cresselia announcement)...

Few things:

With the new system of fusion, the legendary birds now transfer flying type if they’re the body of the fusion. Iirc, this affects other stuff like charizard now transferring flying, and I can verify this as I had a goldeen/gyarados in a nuzlocke that was water flying instead of pure water

The dragon type point is moot because while yes, most of the dragons are legendaries, it’s also the one with the least number left to pick up with 6-7 lines iirc, we do not need more dragon types super badly

It’s got colors, but what does it bring design wise? The fangs and tail? I just don’t see it, I think most people will just make “Pokémon but with seviper’s color palette” since that’s what I’ve seen so far

#

If be much more interested in Zangoose between the two since the claws are sick and it gets a unique ability

white meadow
stuck bane
#

is it on the server?

white meadow
#

Some sick some bad ones

stuck bane
#

ok thats cool I'll admit, but it still has most of the same issue, thats just scolipede with seviper's tail and colors. although to be fair you can't really have a unique design from just snake, but look at this:

#

that entire rockruff line has the same issue, and the trubbish ones, and the slurpuff one, granted all the three below them are unique and creative, but I think seviper is being too overhyped for offering so little, its good if more of the bottom 3 fusions are made, otherwise...

There are just a few mons that will have mostly shit designes
For example Marshadowheehee

hello popkern
i still feel dumb from yesterday katten_dabben

white meadow
#

Y what happend

stuck bane
# white meadow Yeah but its pretty much the Rockruff or meloetta situation again Either its sic...

first of all, I refuse to read something so horribly formatted, what is this supposed to be a poem?

secondly, gothitelle sylveon absolutely has potential, its got the side disks, sylveon could wear the gothitelle dress, not to mention it would be sick anyways since both pokemon have ribbons that can be fused together

not to say seviper is bad, I think seviper is a fine choice, it's just that people are saying it's an S tier when it so clearly isn't. it has potential, but there's only so much you can do with a head and a tail, serperior at least has regal designs and leaf arms and frills, seviper doesn't have those so its good, but not S tier

normal ghost and dark ghost i alr knew those

#

but i didnt know bug steel

stuck bane
#

where is it, its got the tail design and fangs, beyond that I don't see how its different from any other snake mon

glass patio
stuck bane
#

yes it has a cool pattern with the black and red and yellow scales, but thats a color palette, not the design itself

#

wait a minute

#

these things protrude out, IS SEVIPER A FUCKING CATERPILLAR

what is bro yapping about Painless

stuck bane
#

then what are they? spikes that just so happen to be touching the ground?

#

seviper is just a funny snek why do u care so much popkern

stuck bane
#

I don't hate seviper, I just never noticed this until just now

glass patio
#

i mean yea ig it doesn’t bring much headempty

white meadow
stuck bane
#

I thinks its clearly supposed to be scales, and not metal, are the purple parts supposed to be scars? and yeah I suppose we're in agreement on leg nubs then

sevinja is a cool name tho

#

i mean we alr got sneks in if
like uhm
arbok ig

#

and uhhhh
is rayquaza a snek

#

what makes a snek?

stuck bane
#

but lastly none of the current seviper sprites are treating the gold scales as armor, they are treating them like scales, so I dont think the "seviper would bring armor fusions" has much weight to it either, I don't think anybody sees seviper like a poison/steel type

stuck bane
# glass patio and uhhhh is rayquaza a snek

rayquaza is like the snake from the bible, where legs were taken away, but arceus was doing the one move he has in smash and only his back two legs were lost and then he learned how to be like one of those kites that looks like a net and then learned to fly, true story

uhhhhhh
very true

that’s how arceus made the pokemon world

#

yeah there a few with solid fusion and idc if malamar isn,t in if even though it can have good fusions or refs

white meadow
#

Malamar is for fusions belowe Seviper
Cuz I feel like the fusions end up ass most of the time

marble meadow
#

yeah my other two picks are liligant and escavalier

#

but eh what do i know

#

but what,s your opinions about ludicollo

stuck bane
white meadow
#

Hey
I love Malamar I used one
But as I know the server we get more quality sprites would be from Seviper than Malamar

stuck bane
#

I just don't see what quality sprites seviper brings, about half of what I've seen has been creative or interesting, meanwhile malamar is above most unova mons, and that's saying alot considering I'm unova man

hushed mantle
#

Imo one of the only good points of bringing seviper is that it also brings zangoose

marble meadow
#

i want his afro in the game or him as a costum

#

also i gonna do a mirro.b run if ludicollo get,s added

#

also i need to check what other mons he had

stuck bane
marble meadow
#

nice i keep that a mind for my future run also ludicollo would be funny for if for silly fusions or just give every mon a sombrero

stuck bane
#

I think lilligant is better as a grass type own tempo user, and we really don't need more water types, and adding ludicolo means another potential 3 slots for getting its counterpart shiftry in, although I won't deny ludicolo is popular and has design potential for sure

marble meadow
#

i see at least i got enough ghost types

#

i like ghost types ghost are my number 1 2nd dark and 3rd place psychic

#

but now i wait and see maybe those mons who get in will give me ideas for some runs

#

that,s reminds me i need to start my sharpedo run

and also this

#

so uhm

#

yea popkern

stuck bane
# white meadow you have some Malamar examples

While it’s true there aren’t many malamar examples, this one still gives a good idea of what the spriter was trying to go for. And not to mention, examples aren’t really needed for obvious design potential: meloetta had almost no musical instrument fusions before the results of the raffle, but we knew it was gonna bring musical instrument fusions anyways because obviously it was going to, malamar is the same situation: it gives squid fusions because obviously it does, upside down fusions because obviously it does, it absolutely could make fusions of some of the deep sea leviathans from subnautica, and it obviously would bring a whole rainbow of colors and potential from the squid it’s based on and all its Pokédex entries talking about the patterns being hypnotizing:

white meadow
#

I would never see Torterra in that

glass patio
stuck bane
#

Listen I know the spriter gave up on it like partway through but you obviously see what they were going for

#

Either way, that’s still a lot more than sevipers patterns, tail, fangs, and nub legs as total reasons

white meadow
#

I could make a Seviper too thats just plants, rock and water

glass patio
#

i like malamar for making upside down stuff
i mean we have voltorb and electrode but malamar is more than a ball

white meadow
#

That Spin hitmon thing

glass patio
#

daxa made an upside down dunsparce with electrode btw lmao

white meadow
#

Nice

glass patio
#

ecrapsnud

#

they also made Fancy

glass patio
white meadow
#

Yeah it would be cool but fusion wise worse than Seviper imo

stuck bane
#

I still feel like malamar fills a big hole in potential that the others can't. voltorb is just a ball, and hitmontop is more for spinning top fusions, so malamar really doesn't have much competition in that area. Meanwhile seviper has to contend with ekans, arbok, and a myriad of other snake like mons like onix, gyarados, milotic, dratini, dragonair, etc

glass patio
#

i’d rather malamar popkern
not that seviper would be bad tho stare

#

can we just have peace between malamar and seviper popkern

white meadow
#

why do they even got beef with each other anyway

stuck bane
#

both have good odds anyways, malamar with the obvious design potential with contrary and topsy-turvy, and seviper made like 8th place or something in the spriter vote, both have decent odds of getting

glass patio
#

there you go now they’re both united as one

wait no malamar wins because psychic super effective against poison katten_dabben

stuck bane
#

you can dislike malamar, people have dislikes all the time, saying every fusion malamar will bring will be ass is way too much, in fact I'm gonna keep that so I can show it to him again after malamar is added

white meadow
#

I never said I dislike it
And I didnt say all will be bad
I said that most would be ass
It easyer to make quality stuff with seviper imo
Just thinking of the fucked shading from the upside down fusion
The non dynamic poses
Or the just recolors with a upside down mon

#

y'know, thats fair, I misunderstood you, seviper does bring more fusions since it's an easier design, same boat as simple stuff like castform, so in that regard seviper is above malamar in terms of fusions

white meadow
#

Game play wise Malamar always wins tho

white meadow
stuck bane
#

malamar does have more than just mechanics, but I see where you're coming from

white meadow
#

Also to the Seviper part
We dont have a mon that adds long Fangs
I see that as a bonus point

stuck bane
#

wait really?

white meadow
#

Only other mon I can think of is Walrain

#

But both are not in PIF

stuck bane
#

yeah I'm skimming through... I don't really see anything that screams "vampire fang fusions" which could be another point in sevipers favor (excluding stuff like mamoswine because obviously thats different)

white meadow
#

Tusks are tooth too but its diffrent

#

Would be like saying Moose antlers and goat horns are the same

#

guys we don't have a whatever the fuck is masquerain is so we should totally add it!

#

I mean if we want wing pattern Vivillion works better

stuck bane
#

yep, plenty of pokemon with fangs, but none really besides seviper and walrein can say "I have fangs the size of my head"

white meadow
#

Also thinking of snake types having a Viper is cool
We have a Kobra
Serpent dragons
Snake mimics
And there are so many interesting Vipers

  • Body wise we can treat its tail like Aegislash lines sword
