Can't help but wonder after seeing Hisuian Voltorb if the regular version was even around in feudal times.
What in Mew's lore ever said it is one of the most powerful pokemon to ever exist? I assume we're not counting the movies, as the powers pokemon display there can be very inconsistent from one movie to the next. As far as its dex entries go, Mew is mostly noted for learning all sorts of moves and usually going unnoticed by people.I don't think Mew is really out of the question to receive a new gimmick, although I also don't think it's a likely candidate for a Hisuian form. Sure, it already sort of has a gimmick in its movepool (as well as being one of 3 Pokemon who can use Transform), but in-game it doesn't live up to its lore description as being one of the most powerful Pokemon to ever exist. Its stats are all around mediocre and mono-Psychic went from being one of the best types in the game in Gen 1 to arguably being one of the worst.
I was expecting Hisuian Voltorb as soon the pokeballs of Hisui Region were shown.I was expecting Hisuian Voltorb to look more like an Apricorn that fell off a tree. But I still like what we’ve got.
To be fair, Kantonian Voltorb and Electrode only come in the red-and-white variety in a game with Great Balls, Ultra Balls, and Master Balls. The standard red-and-white Poké Ball is by far the most recognizable type and arguably the second most recognizable part of Pokémon after Pikachu itself.I'm not really impressed by Hisui Voltorb, it doesn't even look all that different from the original. When I first read the leak that said it was going to be Electric/Grass my first thought was they would tie it into the Apricorns somehow, like it comes in a variety of colours and then Electrode would look like the various Apricorn Balls, so I think there's a missed opportunity there.
Looks like those rumors became a bit more credible. Just need to wait and see ifis legitHisuian Dragon/Steel Goodra
Cause it is completely a wooden carving.Why are its pupils holes? That's weird.
Most likely not since the Voltorb's original dex says it came from a Pokeball Factory, meaning that specific species of Voltorb all came from the same place.Can't help but wonder after seeing Hisuian Voltorb if the regular version was even around in feudal times.
