I hate the tail coming off the head and its fingers/toes

Really? I find them like every time.

Apparently it's like 5% but in the 30+ times I've gone through Viridian Forest, even with all the training I've done before Brock, that was probably the third one I've ever seen.


I've never been legitimately terrified of a level 16 Raticate before today. I didn't expect it and was sure it was going to pull a Hyper Fang and kill one of my already weakened party members. Nuzlocke instills some serious fear in otherwise completely calm situations. Still going strong with Ivysaur, Rattata, Geodude, NidoranF, and Pidgey. No casualties yet.

>not using level 16 Metapod

But I botched getting a Metapod.

just got a crit and KOd the Metapod that would've been my Viridian Forest Pokemon.

Also the new Mewtwo form has been canonically referred to as "Awakened Mewtwo" or "Post-Awakened Form" by the Japanese website, so you can call it that. Or Mewthree, or whatever you want, really. Doesn't matter.

I totally didn't notice that there was a little Eevee-related bit at the end of the Japanese movie trailer either, which features Sylveon (whom Meowth seems to be quite taken by) and the other Eeveelutions. It's got an interesting screen towards the end:



Whatever that symbol is behind Sylveon is likely what type it is, but it's pretty vague along with Espeon and Umbreon, so it could be a new type or just a really weird representation of an existing type like the aforementioned Psychic and Dark symbols. It might also be totally unrelated and they just chose something that wouldn't give away what type it is.

Wings.
I'm calling it now: Sylveon flies.
How? It uses its... things... as a... propeller.

Yeah.

Yeah.

wrong. it's a normal type.

it's like a blissey or some stuff

[Masterlegodude]

Eevee is a normal type but has a heart emblem, what does that mean?

[Khorde]

love type confirmed

[Masterlegodude]

Also, the colors and the shape makes me think of a more saturated coat collar Zero's outfit from Code Geass


What is it supposed to represent anyway?

[Joltarn]

wrong. it's a normal type.

it's like a blissey or some stuff

"hey guys wouldnt it be cool if eevee just stayed normal type when it evolved"

[Joltarn]

but it's already brown and normal so why'd it turn pink

[Flamecannon]

man how many eeveelutions does it take to get to the center of the normal type evolution?

ye one, nye two, nh three, hu four, ah five, ln six, hoo haa seven, and uh ei---

the world may never know
anyway i'm pretty sure it's going to be flying, just because if game freak were to design a direct evolution from eevee it'd probably stay more close to the actual eevee design. it has those tail thingies on its head and i'd associate those with scarves n' such that flow in the wind.

[Regulith]

First Nuzlocke casualty. I foolishly sent my Raticate Doug into battle against a Machop because for some unholy reason I thought Fighting being super effective against Normal wasn't implemented in Gen 1. Machop got a critical Low Kick. RIP Doug, him and his Hyper Fang were a treasured part of the team.
