What, no Goomy?

Spoiler

Yeah, sorry for the image dump, but I just can't get over how stupid cute this evolutionary line is.

Mod Edit: Please use spoilers for large images. Thank you.

Why is everyone so excited about this generations butterfree?
I don't get it.

 

[Story]

Good picks, though I got pretty excited when I saw this Pokemon.

We got a Luchadore pokemon, I did not see that coming.

Also keys...

 

[JoJo]

What, no Goomy?

Ha, this was exactly what I was going to say, I caught one yesterday and within five minutes fell in love with it's stupidly cute little face. I'm just hoping the final evo looks okay in-game since the only official pics I could find were awful quality screenshots.

Also, where's the love for Honedge and his evo's OP? The sword-swinging animation makes them so cool to use in battle!

 

[JonB]

I tried to pick a few that hadn't been splashed all over the net yet. Obviously Goomy and A LUCHADORE FALCON OMG are awesome, but, you know, tryin' hard to get a bit of variety out there.

 

[IllumInaTIma]

Yay! Flabebe! She's probably my favourite new gen Pokemon! She's so adorable, floating on her little flower. And then she evolves and uses that flower as an umbrella! And then she evolves again and becomes an Opera singer!

 

[funksobeefy]

oh yeah butterfly pokemon!

I don't get it.

Because it has the stats and movepool to be usable for the entire game, and even in PVP. Also, people quite like the designs. it has 18(?) different wing patterns depending on country of origin.

String Shot, Psybeam, AND Sleep Spores. I died and went to heaven.

 

[The Diabolical Biz]

I got X and I also have a bitchin' Tyrantrum. Lil dude goes ham.

Aside from that, I'm really diggin' Clawitzer. I have a thing for the huge awesome OTT Pokémon.

And have you seen Mega-Aggron?! It was one of my favourites before, but now...holy shit.

Spoiler

Looks like it came straight out of Pacific Rim...

You haven't seen the half of it. He gets Quiver dance (boosts special stats and speed) and Hurricaine (very powerful flying special attack, which combines very well with compoundeyes for accuracy). Not to mention the combination of sleep powder + compundeyes followed by a quiver dance setup into a bug buzz (strong bug special attack) / hurricane sweep.

He may not be the most used 'mon but he certainty packs a punch.

Dark Psychic Pokemon no attack against him has 0.5 damage. It's all 1, one 2 (fairy) and one 4 (bug).

also one 0 (psychic) its messes with minds but its mind can not be messed with, having sand thrown in its eyes improves its accuracy and covering in webbing only makes it faster, Everything you know is wrong and Malamar will let you know that via a bowl of asswhoop. Yea malamar has quickly become my new fav pokemon.

 

[saxman234]

Hmmm, not the best list. Goomy is obviously everyone's favorite new pokemon. Gen 6 has so many fantastic pokemon designs. I was at first disappointed that there is only around 70 new pokemon, but most of them are great.

 

[ResonanceSD]

Chesnaught, because even Pokemon is targeting the Fratboy demographic.

 

[Another]

Aegislash is best new pokemon. That stance change stuff it gets and the moves Sacred Sword and King's Shield? Plus its Ghost/Steel? That thing just wrecks.

 

[Buizel91]

No love for Noivern here?

Spoiler

It's a half Bat half Dragon with speakers for ears...as soon as i get this guy he is in my team for good!

We got a Luchadore pokemon, I did not see that coming.

I name mine El Loco Polo! He's my new favorite!
