do you still remember vaporeon?

that in terms of human companionship, Flareon is objectively the most huggable Pokemon? While their maximum temperature is likely too much for most, they are capable of controlling it, so they can set themselves to the perfect temperature for you. Along with that, they have a lot of fluff, making them undeniably incredibly soft to touch. But that's not all, they have a very respectable special defense stat of 110, which means that they are likely very calm and resistant to emotional damage. Because of this, if you have a bad day, you can vent to it while hugging it, and it won't mind. It can make itself even more endearing with moves like Charm and Baby Doll Eyes, ensuring that you never have a prolonged bout of depression ever again.

This is so wholesome, especially in contrast. I love it!

[-] [email protected] 36 points 1 week ago

My secret to remember then is to have children.

[-] [email protected] 58 points 1 week ago

Yes, but after naming my first child Bulbasaur and my second one Venusaur, I'm not sure I can sire enough children to fill in the first 150, let alone the full roster...

With enough women, it's possible.

Yes, but after naming my first child Bulbasaur and my second one Venusaur, I'm not sure I can sire enough children to fill in the first 150, let alone the full roster...

Plus you already forgot Ivysaur!

I still have an easier time remembering all the original pokemon than I do the periodic table of elements.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

There's antimony, arsenic, aluminum, selenium, And hydrogen, and oxygen, and nitrogen, and rhenium...

I noticed while making this list that Lickitung was incorrectly spelled "LIKITUNG" on the third day.

Edit: Also, for Nidoran♂ vs Nidoran♀ you have to look at the picture to distinguish since they just say "Nidoran" but they do say it twice!

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

There's 150 or more to see, to be the pokemon master that's my destiny

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

That's pretty good! But... that's only 147. :-)

Nidoran♀, and Nidoran♂ are separate and you're missing Nidorina, Nidoqueen, and also Rhydon.

Some other corrections:

  • Pigeotto -> Pidgeotto
  • Ninetails -> Ninetales
  • Diglit -> Diglett
  • Primape -> Primeape
  • Duouo -> Doduo
  • Cloysyer -> Cloyster
  • Ghastly -> Gastly
  • Electrabuzz -> Electabuzz
  • Gyrados -> Gyarados
  • Omantyte -> Omanyte
  • Arodactyl -> Aerodactyl

(Yes, I looked it up. No, I have no life. :p)

Cheers!

i can remember all of them from when i was a kid, but that number has since tripled. if i was a kid now i don't think i would be able to learn all of them in the first place!

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

Triple isn't that bad. I knew 151 and then the main ones from the next few games (and didn't learn all the names, I don't remember any of the middle evolutions) but there are 1025 now

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

It's a shame they didn't clue into the regional variants sooner. I love all the different Meowths. Would have been cool if each new game was remixes of existing pokemon.

Instead of the increasingly humanoid and spikey looking digimon they've been coming up with.

Bulbasaur - Onion turtle

Geodude - Punchy rock

Meowth - That cat with the long-ass arms

Dear Mr. President:

There are too many Pokemon. Please eliminate 500. I am not a crackpot.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago

Electrode, Diglett, Nidoran, Mankey. Venusaur, Rattata, Fearow, Pidgey.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

Seaking, Jolteon, Dragonite, Gastly
Ponyta, Vaporeon, Poliwrath, Butterfree

[-] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago

If I need to say the names of the pokemons I'll forget something like Tangela, but if I see the image of the pokémon I can remember the name. Things get fuzzy at the same time that I stop watching the anime.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

I can still remember the gen 1 starting pokemon, anyway.

Let's see, there's Squirdis, Barbarasoar, uh... Chortle? Oh no

It's the companys fault for looking at the 151 and saying, what if we replaced all this with random bullshit? I miss the og pokemon. I tried playing newer games but damn, it's pure chaos.

[-] [email protected] 59 points 1 week ago

ah yes
the original 151
with such treasures of creative genius as purple rat
another rat
and my personal favorite
some eggs

I've heard it argued that Jynx was a parody of Harajuku fashion, which really only kicks the racism down one more step

Literally two Pokeballs with eyes, one is just flipped upside down. Peak design.

Don't worry trainer, you can always get back together in a big ol' group of all your friends and between everyone we'll be able to figure out all their names. :)

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

A big group of friends? What kind of fucking fantasy land are you living in?

I get fuzzy on anything after Black/White. Hisuian and Alolan regionals would probably be my saving grace after that, I never found the will to finish Sword and have had 0 interest in Scarlet/Violet.
