    Sorry to be a resident pedant but the term panther does not refer to a fixed species. In most cases it refers to mellanistic (completely black) variants of leopards and rarely, jaguars. These two, combined with the tiger, the lion and more recently (and slightly controversially) the snow leopard...

    I was merely pointing out the term seems to have originated in French but entered into English and beyond as the Green Fairy. I can't actually say this is a term I had heard of before and I find these details very interesting. I love how moves like Draining Kiss are perfect for Fairy type too...

    Regional Variants/Alolan Forms Discussion Thread

    Porting this over from the other thread where the topic of absinthe came up, which is known for its mild hallucinogenic properties and euphemistically called the 'Green Fairy' sometimes :) Alolan Sableye, Poison/Fairy: 'Instead of eating ore which was scarce in Alola, it had to look for...

    Thank you ^_^ I will go and post it in the Alolan variations. I really like the idea of Green Daze :) Jabsinthe XD cool name but referencing absinthe directly is probably a no no :P On topic, I am quite happy with the variety of fairies we've had this gen, just hoping some of them have higher...

    Not to be a pedant but Absinthe is believed to named from the greek for wormwood. 'Green Fairy' is actually a poetic title for it derived from French. A rabid venemous green pixie sounds awesome though. Omg... Alolan Sableye, Poison/Fairy: 'Instead of eating ore which was scarce in Alola...

    *see's Lightning Rod [eye twitch], why Gamefreak??* This is like Moxie Pyroar again :L (one specific usage in Entrainment passing is NOT justification). At least it has Iron Barbs and likely a decent defense based on it's appearance. *sigh* just once Gamefreak, once make a decent Pikaclone and...

    At this point given the track record of previous pika clones, it likely won't evolve. It's only real purpose is as a foil to Pikachu and aside from that I dont think it is designed with battle effectiveness in mind. Saying that Togedemaru looks like it has a better shot of actually being useable...

    The problem is though given that each of them are very different types how would it's learnset and tm compatiblity work? I'm also thinking they have different stat distributions (like the Eeveelutions) where Fire has a higher Attack, Electric has higher Speed, Psychic has higher HP and Ghost has...

    Regional Variants/Alolan Forms Discussion Thread

    This is definitely going to be one of the most interesting things about Alolan forms, in terms of evolution methods. Some, like those that evolve by level are naturally fine to stay the same, but in the case of things like elemental Stones where the type is no longer relevant to the stone, will...

    I don't mean to come across as a SJW by dredging up this post, but as someone who is of Indian descent, there is some very cringey conflation of Middle Eastern/Persian/Indian going on in this post which makes me slightly uncomfortable. I don't of cause think you are intending to, but you are...

    I just really hope we get a non Dragon pseudo legend this time. Goodra was nice as a more uorthodox pseudo but it was pure Dragon :L I'd like to see Fairy, Bug, Poison or Grass to get the honour of a pseudo legend this time around, we could really do with some pokemon with higher BSTs for...

    See, I can definitely see that, but given that none of it's other names references the morel and it really doesn't look much like it, I see it as a bit of a cringey pun, where it's named for something it really doesn't really resemble but is linked to, like Sandshrew or Patrat. I also read...

    Through some research I have found another possible inspiration for Morelull and possibly what it's evo may look like: The bright blue fungus is called Pixie's Parasol . Ironically enough this species is not luminescent like Morelull but many from the genus it belongs to(Mycena) are...

    Zygarde/Flare arc preview

    I didn't say he should be written out because he hasnt won a league yet. I must say you either get the wrong end of the stick or you seem to twist what I say. Look. All im saying is the writers should have capitalised on the 20th anniversary hype and let Ash win. With that, they could have let...

    Zygarde/Flare arc preview

    Way to miss the point of my 'rant'. I specifically said him not aging isn't an issue, its that he has no stable character growth because it is reset/stunted every time he goes to a new region essentially. If that was what they wanted to in terms of a blank slate each region why bother trying to...

    Zygarde/Flare arc preview

    Ah didn't know that. I'm sure I was able to comment on the TV Tokyo video first but no longer. I was one of the people who hadn't watched the anime in a long long time but that Ash might actually win a league after all this time piqued my interest. Then the moment came, where the writers...

    Zygarde/Flare arc preview

    The dislikes are rolling in still, 56k. They disabled comments too and the preview on the official japanese youtube they even disabled likes/dislikes it seems. They definitely know what they have done and hopefully this may herald change. The longtime fans have spoken, emphatically.

    Zygarde/Flare arc preview

    The preview video on TVtokyo's YouTube has reached 54k dislikes ( with only 1k likes) I guess the massive upset at Ash's loss last episode is still generating a lot of negativity.
