I can't wait to see the evolution of Meowstic

 

[Citizen Insane]

With Tyrunt's ability, I hope there will be a proper Dragon "bite" attack.

I can't wait to see the evolution of Meowstic

What if Meowstic is the final evolution and we have yet to see Espurr/its first form?

Eh, people have a tendency to over-react when it comes to starters. You know, viciously attack starters they don't like and furiously defend the ones they love. Hell, I've been guilty of that too. Personally, I've never disliked a single Pokemon for being a biped or a quadruped, and too feminine or too masculine. That kind of thought process is so alien to my own that when people rant about that stuff all I can do is scratch my head and go "okay, whatever floats your boat, I guess".

I don't hate pokemon for being quadruped or biped or their masculinity and femininity either. Braixen is the sixth biped starter which I don't like but that's probably the least important of the problems I have with Braixen. And if it was a regular pokemon I wouldn't mind it's femininity either, I just don't like starters looking too masculine or feminine. People can argue about the Meganium because of its flower but it doesn't really look all that feminine IMO. Plus I haven't really defended Quilladin anywhere nor argued with people who hate it, merely mentioned I used it for my avatar to support it
And what I think about Braixen is solely my opinion and I don't mean to offend anyone with it, so people should accept it.
Middle staged starter evos always look really cool but I've been disappointed since last gen with Pignite, which I was neutral about, and now with Quilladin, which now I like and Braixen, which I hope evolves into something that can help me forget Braixen

Guys, when do they release the full list of the Pokemon in the game?
is it after the game comes out or few days before?

 

[Razmos]

Yeah, I doubt it too, but it would be quite nice, as if its stats did back it up, it would be an interesting Pokemon to use and would be able to exploit any weather condition.

Perhaps if there was a MegaCastform, you could visit an NPC in a house, or visit a certain landmark or point of interest on the Kalos Map, and you could change Castform's Ability between Sand Stream, Drizzle, Drought and Snow Warning, and cancel its previous ability so it doesn't need the ability previously to transform, it just transforms automatically instead.

I like the idea of changing it's ability. especially with the focus on Fairies in the region, which are sometimes shown to have weather changing abilities.

Would be cool if Castform became Normal/Fairy and turned into an Ice/Fairy, Fire/Fairy, Water/Fairy, Ground/Fairy with the weather. It would give Castform amazing type coverage, and it's low stats would be countered by it being a Jack of all trades type wise.

I want the pokebeach rumour to be right and meowstic has a pre evo, just like how it correctly predicted inkay evolving into malimar and pancham evolving into pangoro. I think meowstic is already awesome enough and I can imagine its pre evo being a cute little kitten, but I wouldn't mind an evo even though it may be hard to top since meowstic already looks great.

 

[Kingudora]

Yep most likely. Most likely a Rock-type version as well.

Though a sandstorm isn't actually a weather condition.

Hmmmm....that could happen....

 

[Citizen Insane]

That too. But with Rock type attacks I prefer having more special based moves. We already have Ancientpower and Power Gem, but those moves are quite uncommon and their BP are rather mediocre.

 

[Frisky]

I want to see a Ghost/Rock type pokemon that evolves by using Ancientpower

 

[PMG]

so have we discussed how we are pronouncing some names e.g

Furfrou - FurfrOH, FurfrOW, FurfrEW

Braixen - BrEYEzen, BrAYzen, BrAXEN, BrIXEN

 

[NightFire7]

I would imagine that Tyrunt will get moves such as fire fang, ice fang and thunder fang which would all get a power boost from its ability, but I hope this gen also gives it some stab biting moves such as a rock type biting move or even a dragon type biting move. I imagine that Tyrunt's final evo will have massive attack but low speed kind of like Rampardos, but I hope it actually has a little more base speed which is around 65-75 ish or even more if we are lucky so it can at least out run a few things without having to rely on something like rock polish.

 

[PMG]

Tyrunt should get a move called Stone Teeth and the unoriginal Dragon Fang - perhaps Dual Chop will be boosted

 

[Frisky]

Maybe Tyrunt will get a rock-type bite move....hmmm name it Colossal Chomp

Would be nice, but Castform doesn't change with Sandstorm, and if it does, wouldn't it just also just as well become Rock/Fairy, or Steel/Fairy?
And if you say that it should get a Form with Sandstorm, then it should get a Form for Fog too, IMO.

But since Sandstorm isn't really Weather, I don't see it happening.

 

[Razmos]

I'm hoping Tyrunt's evolution is called Tyrannomaw

T.rex was rather fast, for a big theropod. I'm hoping for a speed around 80 and attack around 145

 

[Ej190]

Think we'll get a new weather condition this gen? A fog weather that isn't as haxy or acid rain or that weather from pokemon xd, any of them could be fun.
Also, if you could get any ability as a one time use item what would it be? Like we got air balloon as a pseudo levitate.
