I might get banned.There will be fights. It might get ugly.
Unova's Pokémon designs are way better than Sinnoh's!I wanted to space out Sinnoh a bit so we don't blaze through it (plus personal issues), but damn, I can't wait to get to Unova. It's gonna be interesting...
Unova has a mix of some of the best and worst Pokemon ever.
These are actual Pokemon that exist. I did not make up any of them. If you say you remember all of them, you are lying or run one of the biggest Pokemon websites on the internet.
Gen V suffers from so many Pokemon that are basically alternate reality versions of existing ones. Gen V as a whole feels like what would happen if another company made Pokemon. IT'S JUST WEIRD.
But back to Gen IV, one thing I liked about it is all the different forms and ways to evolve Pokemon. One of my favorite aspects of the games is actually catching them, so I liked how Gen IV gave you interesting ways to acquire them.

I think this is my first time seeing this PokemonThese are actual Pokemon that exist. I did not make up any of them. If you say you remember all of them, you are lying or run one of the biggest Pokemon websites on the internet.
Aside from the monkeys, Gothitelle, Musharna, Scrafty, and the Forces of Nature, Gen V is amazing. I was in awe seeing gen V and then VI after being away from the series how they still manage to put out great designs.
oh boy it's already starting isn't it?
I'm not lying and I'm not Joe. I love most of those Pokemon.Unova has a mix of some of the best and worst Pokemon ever.

Gothitelle is in that list so yes.
I fear some people might get banned during Unova >.>
Gen 5 went really weird with all the Psychic type Pokémon but they're pretty much all crap competitively.
Reuniclus and Gothitelle (With Shadow Tag) are both very solid.Gen 5 went really weird with all the Psychic type Pokémon but they're pretty much all crap competitively.
Reuniclus isn't. Sigilyph isn't. Gothitelle with Shadow Tag isn't. Musharna, well, it's okay in its tier. Beeyem is probably the worst of the lot.
I actually rather like most of them. An all Psychic run through those games would be fun! I do know that on my first run of Black I dropped Musharna. Don't know if I evolved too early and it's moves were trash or if the super slow speed killed it, but oh well.

Reuniclus is pretty great in-game; it might be slow as a snail, but it takes hits very well and dishes out some heavy damage.The problem is almost all of them have bad speed, which is why I dropped Musharna in my first playthrough of White. I tried catching Sigilyph but didn't have any luck.
Edit: By competitively I meant using them in game to Elite 4. I have no idea how good or bad any of them are competitively but I've never seen anyone use them.

You did not just defend MaractusYou did not just shit on Maractus and Jellicent.

Beheeyem suffers from evolving too late like a lot of other Unova Pokemon, but it's not garbage. It's basically a worse Reuniclus.
It's more than 7 for gen 5.I remember awhile ago counting how many non-pseudo legendaries evolved after 40 in the first 4 gens compared to gen 5 and it was something like one for the first 4 gens (I think Rhydon) and 7 for gen 5 alone.
I've seen people defend fucking Delibird. Maractus at least is fine in-game and has a fairly cute design.You did not just defend Maractus
It's more than 7 for gen 5.
Larvesta, Elgyem, Mienfoo, Rufflet, Vullaby, Pawniard, Golett, Klang, Fraxure, Vanillish, and probably a few more I'm forgetting.
It's absurd.

I will fully admit I give certain Pokémon a pass because of their Pokémon Stadium mini-games. That's why they need to make more of those!Delibird had a fun minigame in Pokemon Stadium and has a signature move. Maractus has none of that. It looks like it should be in some evolutionary line, but it's not. There's already a cactus Pokemon anyways, furthering my point of Gen V having a bunch of bizarro doppelganger Pokemon.
I saw some interview with Masuda the other day, talking about how they had 300 designs for Pokemon RB and picked the best ones. Obviously some were probably included in Gen II as well, but I really wonder how many of those original 300 actually came to fruition. It would be trippy to learn one of the Gen VI Pokemon were actually designed all the way back in the 90s.
Are you seriously arguing that Present is a point in Delibird's favor?Delibird had a fun minigame in Pokemon Stadium and has a signature move. Maractus has none of that.

I remember all of these since I replayed the best gen a lot of times. I also like all of these, except for maybe that psychic alien type monster. Far better than most of gen 4's shitty new evolutions atleast.Unova has a mix of some of the best and worst Pokemon ever.

Unova was the first region, besides Kanto, where I could name all the Pokémon (provided pictures).
I think I know all 722 now (provided pictures), but Kanto and Unova are the easiest to recall.
See, my problem with the "This Pokèmon just appears to be an alternate form of that one!" is that it completely disregards how genetic variation within Class and Order is. There are differing species of birds in real life, why not in Pokèmon?
For example, Bouffalant. Some say "It's too similar to tauros". But other than the fact that a buffalo and a bull are not the same thing, Bouffalant brings its own unique variation. Slower, more defensive, and has afro crash. It's a quaint and memorable design.
And that's the same for alot of Unova Pokèmon. I won't claim to have remembered that all of those existed (like Beheeyem or Elgyem for that matter) but the rest of those stand out because they are either a unique animal/whatever or variation of one.
I think Bouffalant would have been fine if it were more different from Tauros. It's fine if there are Pokemon based on visually similar species, but Bouffalant has the same body shape, the same type and a very similar color scheme to Tauros.
There are even Pokemon that reuse similar gimmicks (e.g. Kingler and Clawitzer having one claw much larger than the other) but nobody complains about it because otherwise they are so dissimilar to each other.
Honestly, even if Bouffalant was a Tauros evolution there would probably be people complaining that he changes so little after evolving.
The biggest thing connecting the two Pokemon is that they're three-stage fighting types who evolve by trading but it's not like Condkeldurr also has 4 arms and shit.
