Same here.

Jim Carrey pokemon? This is me trying to keep on topic.

Is that Jim Carrey in... a horror movie?

[Holy Crap]

Yeah it looks different but isn't there a lot of dark types already?

23.

By the way, I didn't get time before, but for comparison, there are:
53 Psychics
33 Fires
80 Normals
25 Fightings
65 Flyings
50 Poisons
48 Grounds
37 Rocks
47 Bugs
18 Ghosts
26 Steels
19 Dragons
22 Ices
28 Electrics
55 Grasses
92 Waters

So no I think Dark does indeed need a boost to numbers, currently having the 4th leaset (and Ghost and Dragon SHOULD be rare anyway).

[Haruka]

I think that numbers are good but yes, Dark types could be raised up.

[Serza5]

*Note to self : I must research into this stuff before making a statement*

A ghost dragon? That would be quite interesting.

O rly?

Bulbapedia is amazing.

[Serza5]

A new one I meant. Ok thats not what I meant, I find it hard to remember every single pokemon there is, especially when i'm in school "revising" physics.

[Holy Crap]

Haha I understand, I personally have a near encyclopaedic knowledge of Pokemon but not everyone else does.

Giratina is pretty memorable though...

[Serza5]

I know all of the 1st gen and most of the second gen. Other than that i'm pretty forgetful.

Yeah but it has an unusual type so it's easy to forget.

[Rsandee]

I always wanted a dark and flying type bird.
Like Staraptor but with the possibility to do dark moves like dark void.

[Haruka]

I would like that more Psychic+Dark types were created, or more Psychic+Fight types.

[Serza5]

I think a fire water type would be nice.

[Holy Crap]

more Psychic+Fight types.

We already have three. I'd personallyh prefe some brand new type combinations, like Bug/Electric and Fire/Dragon.

[Haruka]

Or Dragon and Ice would be great.

How about an alternate Dragonair evolution that doesn't suck, and actually looks like it's from the same evolutionary line as Dratini and Dragonair?

[Serza5]

Yeah. it could be a water dragon.

[Holy Crap]

Dragonite doesn't suck, it's actually quite poweful.
As for the second point, it's face is actually very similar to that of Dragonairs. Truly, I see no point to your suggestion.

Yeah. it could be a water dragon.

We have enough of those... yes, two is enough.

When I said that it sucked, I wasn't referring to its strength in battle. I was referring to its stupid character design. And its face may be similar to Dragonair's, but what about the rest of it?


Dratini looks a little too small and cute, but that's fine because it's a first-stage Pokémon. Dragonair looks like a bigger, better, more elegant and more badass version of Dratini, which is pretty cool. Dragonite breaks this cycle by throwing out everything that made the Dragonair cool and replacing it with generic cartoon dragon-ness.

I suggest an alternative to Dragonite; one which looks like the bigger, stronger, more vicious/elegant/badass version of Dragonair that Dragonite should have been in the first place.

Yeah. it could be a water dragon.

We have enough of those... yes, two is enough.

I'd have to agree. Water/Dragon is a rather uninspired combination, and so is Dragonite's Dragon/Flying. I'd rather an elternate Dragonair evolution remain a pure Dragon-type, just like its pre-evolutions.

[Holy Crap]

Hm, in that case I simply disagree, I think Dragonite is actually pretty cool. Salamence on the other hand...

[Serza5]

What are the water dragons? I seem to have forgotten and is currently to lazy to look it up.

I don't mind Salamence but Dragonite is defiantly better.
