Yay! Starter mid-evo reveals!!!
Dartrix...you're breaking my heart, Rowlet looks cute and Dartrix looks awesome and then it evolves into the ugly archer owl with the goofy hood and wood glasses...why, GF? Why?
Torracat... Looks cool, I like it better than Litten who leaves me kinda meh.
Brionne...D'awww you look dorky, the classic "awkward phase" some middle evos have before it can become the glamourous mermaid. I LOVE her description!
Only I have no clue where the name comes from "Brionne"...does anybody know details?
Why poor us? Brionne shows development towards the mermaid, just like I wanted...
Thank you for clearing this up. I am a huge fan of Green Arrow, but the original Robin Hood mythos should not be forgotten.
The Robin Hood mythos is a glorious conglomeration of different traditions Robin Hood as we know him today is a mixture of the well-known outlaw (who
wasn't a nice guy in the earliest versions and was killed by his sister who was a nun irrc) a Fairy-like character associated with May celebrations (probably the same source for Robin Goodfellow in the Midsummer Night's Dream) and a popular character from French Shepherd plays. Maid Marian was originally also associated with May celebrations, but independent of Robin (she was the original May Queen) And it it wasn't until the Shepherd Robin got a lover named Marian that the two may celebrations were associated with one another. When the three Robins were merged into one character over time Maid Marian simply went along and ended up as the outlaw's girlfriend.
The Arthurian Mythos is a similar glorious quagmire. Originally Morgan LeFay WAS an actual fairy who helped Arthur until he was baptized and then turned against him, Mordred wasn't Arthur's son in the beginning but just some random villain, Lancelot and Guinevere were first made lovers at the request of a French noblewoman who wanted a forbidden romance in the story and the Holy Grail wasn't associated with Arthur at all in the beginning and was included to give Arhtur something to do between building Camelot and getting killed.
That's the great thing about characters from folklore, they evolved so much over time
I was going to reason with you but then noticed your location and I presume you are taking this personally. Either way let me try. The thing with GA is it has developed more in those 75 years than Robin Hood can ever.
Lolwut? No, see the above and I'm a German/Irish born Australian, so I'm not taking that personally (and I doubt Inconspicuosaurus is either.)
Oliver Queen was developed more
coherently but Robin Hood draws from hundreds of years of ballads, romances (novels), plays, folk celebrations, modern novels, TV shows, movies... It might be a contradictory mess but it's a huge body of stories with a gigantic pool of characters and scenarios that is still evolving as we speak and will likely continue to do so for a long time.
Also the Japanese often love Western media, even a couple of things that are pretty obscure here, who's to say someone at Gamefreak isn't a fan of one of the various versions were Robin hood is a total fop?
Next you tell us Captain Britain is more developed than King Arthur I assume?
