So Pokémon Is 15 Years Old Today

I see your point about Lopunny (even then I think it's just more that guy's artstyle - look at his website), but Kirlia and especially Mawile don't give off that vibe at all to me.
And besides, that's one image out of all them. I don't see how the past few pages had made you "hate Mawile". It's seems a little sensationalist to say that.

Sceptile gets it. Leaf blade, especially how it was animated in the anime, made the Treeko line my favoritemxgt said:

I don't know about you guys but I raised a male Gardevoir ._.
and Bug Pokemon are the coolest. I can't believe I struggled with Psychics so much, especially in the earlier games.
<3 Ninjask, Beautifly, Heracross, Scyther, etc. (ESPECIALLY Ninjask with its speed, evasion, and Fury Cutter)
I'm playing Pokemon Blue again and I'm training a Beedrill. I stomped Gary's Kadabra with 1 Twineedle. Ha.

Who cares about Mawile anyways? When we all know Torkoal is the best gen III Pokemon.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet

I especially love Karrablast and Shelmet, the new bugs who evolve by being traded for one another...it's a pretty interesting method, and I like how Karrablast robs Shelmet of his shell and, in response, who morphs into a vengeful ninja slug. And then you got a bad-ass knight beetle too.

I went to see the first two movies in the theaters. I remember the first one was HUGE, and I still kinda thing its a fun movie to watch. We all loved it and would talk about it for weeks at school, as more and more kids slowly got to see it. THE moment of the move was easily (spoilered for people who care and still don't know)
. Even tough they didn't go through with it in the end, it was still a huge "holy shit" moment.
The second movie wasn't nearly as big a deal, and I can't for the life of me remember a thing about it. Brock was still traded out for Tracy in that one right?

It had Lugia and the 3 legendary birds, and a Slowking who could speak through telepathy. Also you got an ancient Mew Pokemon card with it (and that was at least somehow tied into the plot of the movie - I remember some dude in the movie had one for some reason). Thats all I remember.
I was the first person at my school to see it. I dragged my mum with me. It was badass.

I remember buying a ticket early for an afternoon showing, and strolling past all the kiddies in line who didn't do the same. Felt so good.fisheyes said:

That first one kinda reminds me of Pulseman from the early gamefreak game on the megadrive.Watch Da Birdie said:And then Bisharp and Golurk are pretty much your anime-inspired Sentai and Giant Robot, which fits since they're right next to each other in the dex.

If you're pointing at the picture I think you are then I don't see anything wrong with it and I feel that if you do then you're looking far to hard.
Lopunny is one of the more "sexualized" Pokemon in original GF design so its understandable that people draw her as such. And theres nothing sexed up about the other to
And that artist has a ton of great pokemon art. He has drawn every past Pokemon and is now working on the 5th gen ones.

Ah, Pokemon. Started with Blue as a little kid, and never looked back. Easily my favorite long-running series. I love the sheer variety of Pokemon now; there's something for everyone, and that's my favorite thing about this series!
You can probably guess what my favorite Pokemon is.

I actually thought the Gen 3 Pokemon were the worst. 1st and 2nd will always have the better style IMO.

Haven't seen a single Pokemon I've disliked. Loved the hell out of Hoenn, too. Varied environments, my favorite (until BW) soundtrack in the series, DAT FLYGON, the sea routes, contests...

Don't get me wrong the Hoenn guys are great, I just think that out of all the generations they seem to have an art style that just doesn't appeal to me. Groudon is still one of the coolest to me.

Hands up if you created/drew your own Pokemon back then.
In elementary school, I begged my art teacher for us to spend the next few days doing that...

God I love this series. I think I take for granted sometimes just much I enjoyed these games.
Gold/Silver in particular was just mindblowing for me. It was absolutely everything I could have wanted from a Pokemon sequel. Such outstanding atmosphere for a Gameboy game too, man, I almost get misty eyed thinking about those nights spend walking around Johto, entering towns late at night with the lights turned on inside each home.

You think that's anything? Try this, when I first got the game (Christmas of the year it came out), my mother made me choose between opening it up first or the Game Boy Color first. Obviously, I picked the game and started going at it with my old veteran GBPocket. I got a decent way in, like maybe first badge and approaching the second gym leader when finally I could play it in then glorious color...
It was so massive for me to see everything in color, and then I saw the day change to night in real time. It was so paramount for my 10 year old self that I instantly restarted the entire game just to see it all from the start. :lol
Also, Blastoise and Arcanine for life. I was the only kid playing Pokemon Red rocking house with a Blastoise in elementary school. :lol

I remember making a Skunk that, now that I think about it, seemed like a mix between Mew and Toothless lol!
Now I'm thinking about dragons and remembered this pic.
