Pokémon VG Megathread
sir dooble:
I love the mini-France map, it's so cute.
I like the looks of Brittany and it's castle, aswell as the Channel Islands. :3
Suppose I shouldn't be overly surprised they don't include beaches on Normandy though. :P
And Helioptile is a cool name.
I'm going to guess that the name is either a combination of Helicopter and Reptile, judging from the floppy rotor like ears, or more likely Helios and Reptile, with Helios being the Greek god of the Sun, in reference to it's Electric typing and making light from electricity.
(I'm not too sure on the Helicopter idea really, but sometimes Game Freak pull out unusual things for their Pokemon)
Wynd_Fox:
It's also slightly like hoplites which were Greek spear men.
So that's not gonna be at all related, I'm sure. :v

Could be. We haven't seen any of it's evolutions if it has any.
A classical/ancient Greece themed Pokemon family would be pretty cool.

It's shaped like europe
That peninsula is Iberia. I think. I don't have France's shape memorized so you may be right.
