I didn't really care about Dawn, but her Pachirisu sure was something.

Just make Stealth Rock give Spikes +1. Meta-game solved.I really wish there was a type that could remove Stealth Rock[....]
XY animation is pretty insane for a long running weekly anime. It's honestly might be up there as one of the best animated anime currently running, which is insane for a show that's be going continuously for over 100 episodesXY has good animation, but IMO it lacks a certain energy sometimes---not as bad as Best Wishes, but a lot of episodes of XY are fairly dull and only saved because they look nice and feel comfortable to watch. Honestly, that's how I'd describe XY for the most part, "comfort food".
Re-watching Diamond and Pearl (muh god Ash vs. Paul!) and while it's kind of ugly, there's more energy in it especially when it comes to Team Rocket. Better humor too.

I thought bees and wasps are sorta relatedIt's ironic how Beedrill is a wasp but has bee- in its name while Vespiqueen is a bee but has Vesp-(from Vespa - wasp).
Silly not accurate names!

Oh of course, it's just a thing to point out for fun.
where do u get all of this information?
I wish we have insect dynasty warriors
Well EDF is basically that but probably not in the way you wanted it to be.
Yeah, I want to play as Wasp Caocao or Kabuto Lu Bu.
The difference between them is somewhat arbitrary on a taxonomic level. A wasp is basically any Hymenopteran that isn't an ant, bee, or sawfly. Ants have their own family and sawflies have their own clade too, but bees are paraphyletic.I thought bees and wasps are sorta related
They're not just dicks, they're also real life xenomorphs.
Damn. That's amazing right there. A real life pokemon battle! I saw tackle, bite, confusion, and ... Giga drain?The difference between them is somewhat arbitrary on a taxonomic level.

I'll admit Bulbapedia seems to fuck up my computer a lot of the time.
There were no legal legendaries for VGC2014 outside the legendary bird trio.It's always fun to tell people who say that only legendaries can be competitive that Pachirisu won worlds and see their jaws drop.
I'd say each individual entry on average takes me about three hours to complete, as I like to be fairly thorough.

to assume XY Ash is like his past incarnations is a horrible mistake in of itself
you just proved my point that each series treats Ash differentlyWhy when Black and White has shown us exactly how far backwards they can take Ash at a whim? Considering it was the last major anime season before X/Y started.

"Differently" right.... I'll leave it at this. No point in arguing something we will most likely have very differing views on and this being a Pokedex thread.

A lot of people seem to miss that the reason Pachirisu was even within spitting distance of Words was because of the heavily restricted list of Pokemon allowed.
various wikis have design info and name info of mons as well as their anime appearances

I do a pretty decent amount of research for each Pokemon.
When it comes to what Pokemon are inspired by, Bulbapedia has a few suggestions though I use them as a springboard and try and do further research as opposed to taking everything at face value, and I'd say depending on the Pokemon I spend a good amount of time browsing around the net to find fun little facts about their basis. It's also my main source for learnsets, Dex entries, and other data, though I'll admit Bulbapedia seems to fuck up my computer a lot of the time.
I'm not a big competitive player, so Smogon is immensely helpful on the competitive side. That's probably my weakest area though since I don't have much experience there, whereas everything else is based on first-hand experiences. I was also into the Pokemon fandom a lot in the past, so I have a good feel for how certain Pokemon and games were received.
I can proudly say for the anime section, though Bulbapedia helps me refresh my memory, I've seen basically every episode except for the second part of Best Wishes (which I'm watching right now) and the newest couple of episodes, so a lot of that is actually very personal for me and many of the main Pokemon I fondly remember. Though there's so many episodes I need a refresher for some of the more obscure Pokemon.
I'd say each individual entry on average takes me about three hours to complete, as I like to be fairly thorough. Some are easier than others---the Legendary entries you'll notice are quite lengthy and take a bit longer---but I try and put a decent amount of thought into each one, even those who may not really deserve that. I feel I've done a good job on giving every species a fair amount of love, and I try to think of one positive for each. On the other hand, I also try and remember to point out flaws in some of my dear favorites to keep it fair.
So it really was a once in a life time event.
That kind of makes it cooler.
How on Earth do you find Excadrill boring? It's a mole that transforms into a drill. And it's 2 feet tall. That's adorable!I can't even imagine Mega Excadrill. It's already such an exaggerated design. Isn't Excadrill one of the reasons Mega Pokemon exist in the first place? Somehow it manages to be ridiculous and boring and still way better than the other mole Pokemon.
Floatzel is notoriously popular among the Germans for reasons unknown.
