I heard a rumor that Serebii himself invented Tangrowth, somewhere on these forums, maybe a quote in a signature, I don't remember.
But yea; I sure have my not-so-favorites; and I do have my favorites. Suprisingly I always gravitate toward Normal-types. I used to love fire-types; but.... three generations in a row, with fire-fighting hybrid starters, and not so many new non-legendary fire-types... made me sad so they dropped due to inactivity or something like that.
I have two RPGs myself that are near completion come November(since I'll include Pokemon Male(XY) into it)
First is Colliding Worlds, Pokemon meet real world, Pokemon take the role of "aliens"
Second is the one I am bouncing ideas off of Mon, and Poketch Academy. Debating age but Ithink 12-16 would be reasonable (12 if we ALL want to follow the age = class thing) I kinda want to have a deal here, where you can be a transfer (choose your own Pokemon) or be a Freshman (be assigned your own pokemon) and stuff I dunno.
