Looks cool. Can't believe this is the first lion Pokémon created.

Yo.

ed: fuck!

 

[Tan]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what is happening? Was this intentional or...?

Also not sure how I feel. I thought litleo was boring. Pyroar looks... like a circus animal?

 

[Schadenfreude]

Don't forget Manectric.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Yo.

Luxray was kinda shitty though.

 

[Blue-kun]

Not sure what it is, I like the design better viewed from the side, but the front picture feels kinda weird. The kanji for fire detail is pretty neat, but there's something bugging me, and I can't quite point what it is. Maybe the really... plastic-y colors? Don't know.

Anyhow, if one decides to go mono-Fire team, he's well served. Between Fennekin, Charizard, the promotional Torchic and now this guy, you definitely won't be missing Fire-Types, lol.

 

[-Horizon-]

Well I for one didn't even remember Manectric until it was brought up. Gen 3 just seems so long ago and the pokemon itself is just blah.

 

[Delio]

You take that BACK! Luxray was a beast in D/P ;_;

 

[Ultimadrago]

Luxray is still superior large cat/lynx/lion pokemon

Agreed. The kanji fire mane was a neat idea though.

Luxray was kinda shitty though.

Unfortunate, yes.

 

[Niraj]

Yo.

Luxray should've been Electric/Dark. He's so damn cool.

Pyroar looks pretty solid

 

[Village]

You don't talk shit about Luxray the shadow.

 

[Busaiku]

You know what the worst thing about Luxray is?
Pokemon Conquest.

I think it's because in the front facing shot it got caught kind of in mid animation? It looks kind of derpy because its head is tilted up and its mouth is open. I don't know it could just be me, but it still looks really cool

 

[Hero of Legend]

I always considered Entei to be a lion, and Raikou a tiger. Suicune... a wolf I guess?

 

[Lord_Byron28]

Yo.

Isn't that line supposed to be a Lynx?

 

[Delio]

I always considered it a Cheetah.

They're all gerbils. Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

 

[survivor]

Luxray was kinda shitty though.

No!

 

[Antiwhippy]

Seriously though, I didn't even know that luxray was supposed to be a lion till someone told me on the internet. He looks nothing like one.

His design always screamed overdesigned to me.

 

[qq more]

Why do people call them gerbils? Is it some Pokemon in-joke or something?

 

[pariah164]

Luxray is OP in whatever game has him in it. He becomes my main Electric user.

 

[Village]

Dunno about suicunne

but entei and raiku have big puffy checks and mean over bite.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Heh.

Pyroar feels more of a Lion King lion while Luxray feels more of an Emperor Leo/Kimba lion.

Don't forget Manectric.

Manectric is a wolf raijuu.

I think its some internet joke. I just like bringing it up now because someone brought it up a while back when we were talking about the 3 of them.

 

[papercamm]

Manectric is a wolf raijuu.

Always reminded me of a jackal.

 

[BoSox06DH]

I stand corrected on the lion Pokemon situation, but Pyroar definitely screams badass lion compared to Luxray .(Btw, I do like the design of Luxray.)

 

[Aaron Strife]

On the gamefaqs forums there were arguments about whether they were cats or dogs, so the consensus became that they were gerbils

I love you Internet.

 

[hemtae]

This is almost what I needed after the Chespin evolution

 

[Unicorn]

Mane isn't very good. But dear lord he looks infinitely better than the pre-evo. That thing was a train-wreck that made Bidoof look like a South Korean beauty pageant contestant.

 

[MasterSheen]

I knew Litleo would get a great evo.

+1 for Luxray appreciation.

 

[Neiteio]

I hope the English site updates soon with Pyroar, Orotto (or whatever his JPN name is), and all of the Coro Coro stuff.

Plus a bag of chips. And some dip.

Hummus? I'd be down for some hummus and Espurr.

 

[crimsonspider89]

Luxray isn't a lion. It is a lynx.

Suicine looked like a panther to me.

 

[blitzwolf215]

Suicune is based off a Qilin, a sort of Chinese unicorn.

 

[kittens]

Decided to break my media blackout and indulge myself. Pyroar looks stupid. Don't care, still hyped.

 

[Avixph]

Suicune is based off a Qilin, a sort of Chinese unicorn.

I don't think so.

 

[hupla]

Cant wait for the fanart of Shiba/Kaoru Takeru with this dude.




What im saying is someone draw fanart of that.

 

[javac]

So do places like IGN already have access to stuff like this so far in advance? Hmmm didn't think they would with something like Pokemon. Dem leaks.

 

[Banjotanooki]

So..uh....how did it leak?

This is from an official release they must have received early. We'll probably get it soon, maybe in the release we'll get tomorrow.

 

[Kyuur]

Horrible design. :/

Ah that makes sense! Thanks Exciting times are ahead!

 

[MrCookiepants]

Oh my God. This gen is amazing. How the hell am I gonna pick only 6?

Beware Romulans bearing gifts

 

[TWILT]

Looks pretty nice. Pyroar is a badass name.

 

[Scoot2005]

Looks pretty wild. Come the fuck on October.

 

[zroid]

Beware Romulans bearing gifts

awwww yeeeeeaeeaaah

 

[Neiteio]

Man, can you imagine how fucked the world would be if there were fire-breathing lions.

We'd be fuuuuuuuuucked.
