Wow Rotom have five different versions of it in Platinum now, but how come they didn't do any entertainment system and why home appliance? I want my Wii Rotom or at least a DS one.:P

I liked Pokemon better when there was just 100 of them. Then again, I was 7 and things were just so much easier at that age.

pokemon design wise yes.

Gameplay wise no.

Alot was added in ruby/sapphire and diamond/pearl when it comes to the battle system.

Natures, the physical/special split, EV's IV's and a bunch of stuff

No, it does make sense, and there's actually attacks like "Overheat" that Rotom can use depending on what household appliance he is.

Nintendo isn't "running out of ideas." Maybe they thought they were being creative. Once I know everything about the different types, I'll judge if it was a stupid move or not.

Nope, it definitely got better. Play Crystal/Silver/Gold and compare it to Diamond/Pearl. Even if you like the former better than the latter, you'll still admit that they are both pretty much the same quality, seeing as not a whole lot has been changed.

[QUOTE="MoldOnHold"]Ugh it was only a matter of time....Shinobishyguy

you guys do know what a poltergeist is right?

Y'know a ghost that possesses objects such as kitchen appliances...well thats what Rotom is.

It makes sense once you think about it like that. He is a ghost type after all.

Why does he have to possess kitchen appliances? :?

To make the world of Pokemon more interesting? :?

You make it sound like it's stupid. It's cool. In the world of Pokemon, you have all these crazy creatures that do their own little interest things. Imagine being in the Pokemon world and discussing the myth of "a Pokemon that possesses parts of your kitchen!" as a little kid. It's just a nice little tale.

They are sort of like animals with all the crazy stuff they do, except cooler.

Those days are over.

At the end of the fourth generation, there were 493 Pokemon. With these five new ones added, I guess there's 498 now. I can't wait for the fifth generation, because you just know it's going to be awesome.

i honestly dont see pokemon going on after platinum. hell, they already have arceus in diamond and pearl, which is supposed to be the god of pokemon. theres really nothing else left on the chain of power. i guess they could create another 100 subcreatures, but it would be pointless.

Really I think its kind of cool, Rotom is a poltergeist Pokemon and lives in a haunted mansion, and is said to posses certain household objects... so it seems fitting to me. Its not that they are running out of ideas, they are just using Rotoms backstory to form his new evolutions.

Agreed, they should start changing Pokemon games for the better by implementing new ideas, not just bringing new usless pokemon.

I liked a few new ones but most were just useless, and like there are still hundreds that ive never even heard of that they introduced in previous games but just never used really, focus on all of them instead of just the new i say

I think they really started running out of ideas for Pokemon as soon as the third generation started. You know, the whole robot-lookalikes and all.

They seem to be doing both pretty well. Personally, I think that some of the fourth gen Pokemon were actually pretty good. They're being more imaginative, like the first gen, instead of just basing them off animals like the second and third gens.

VendettaRed07

Here's a list of my all time favorites (all also fairly powerful, so they are useful). It has Pokemon from every single gen, not just one.

Starmie (first gen)

Crowbat (Second Gen)

Raichu (First Gen)

Breloom (Third Gen)

Tentecruel (First Gen)

Rampardos (Fourth Gen)

Sure, you could argue that half of them are first gen, but on the other hand, it shows that they are all still quite imaginative. Just look at Rampardos. All his stats are sub-par, except for his attack which is one of the highest stats in the entire game. How does that not lend itself to strategic use. Trust me, they are not running out of imagination.

Maybe this will be an indication to Nintendo that they can't just add new pokemon to make it a new pokemon game. Perhaps they will... change the gameplay! :o

Special Physical no longer split between the types, now the individual moves.

Ball opening animations customizable.

Any outdoor trainer re-challengable.

Not sure how many, but I know that the move-pool is now vastly larger.

Tweaked the berry-growth system.

Added new hold-items.

Added more than two opponents to double battles.

Re-instated timed events.

Changed the way the bike works.

Added the underground.

More legendaries and side-stories than ever before.

Elite 4 now actually hard. (And in platinum, you can rechallenge them about twenty levels higher.)

Trust me, there have been a lot of changes.

Except Magnamite, Voltorb, etc. were ****fied as electrics, and their ****was clearly meant to be robotic, unlike the robotic looking monstrosities that span every ****( ithink) and look like they came from a 'Little Timmy's dragon drawings' sketchbook.

As you can see in my avatar, I liked the first and second Gen, it felt so open to explore everywhere, and you have to actually find a legendary in caves, unlike the 3rd and 4th generation, where the plot is exactly the same: "An evil organizaiton is wanting to awaken a legendary, the legendary goes amok and you can only catch it" give us a new story and useful types, then I'll be happy :(

But it was the beginning of the game, it was either rushed out or never thought about. Nintendo/GameFreak now notices this and they are putting more "Mewtwos" there.

Hey, I'm not some sort of computer, I can't just run them all past my minds eye one by one. :?I need some sort of prompt to jog my memory. In the meantime I'll be looking at a list of fourth gen, picking out the ones that I think look robotic.

Yeah right. Their are only two pokemon comparable to Mewtwo, and that is Deoxys and Arceus, both nearly impossible to obtain, one of which is truly broken stat-wise. The fact remains that Ubers of Mewtwos caliber are rare. There are a huge pile of legendaries that aren't even on the Uber list.

I'm not about to do it again for three, but I just scanned through pictures of every fourth gen pokemon, and I didn't see any particularly inorganic ones, barring of course Dialga and Palkia.
