I think it's safe to assume that there will be a grass, water, and fire starter, at least those will be the types of their first forms.

It would be cool if they made a new trio for starters, such as psychic, dark, and fighting, or something like that

shadow gamer
07-02-2006, 02:14 PM
I'll think keep the old format. Besides, Psychic can't touch Dark at all. An acceptable one would be Flying; Fighting; Rock.

Cherimu looks pretty cute - I never would have thought of a cherry-based Pokemon. And Diaruga and Parukia look like they could be Legendaries, if their classifications as Time Ruling Pokemon and Space Ruling Pokemon are anything to go by.

New rumor from serebii says starters could be fighting/dark/pshychic. What do you guys think of that? I for one prefer grass/fire/water.

07-17-2006, 08:19 AM
Cant be, Phsycic pwns fighting, but doesnt effect dark. They wouldnt make a starter be much harder to beat.

neo daudulas man

once again, dark beats pschic, and then fighting beats dark, so its completly fair.

once again, dark beats pschic, and then fighting beats dark, so its completly fair.

well the argument id that since dark is immune to pszchic, it makes it unfair. It might also be hard for newbs to undersannd the triangle, f/g/w is simple and understandable. What sucks is that since i would pick the dark starter if this is confirmed is that i'd get pwned by every early bug type and all the bug catchers.

i asked this question before, if the time/space ruler people are legendaries, shouldn't there be a third to complete the traditional "trio?" because otherwise it seems like groudon/kyogre and lugia/ho-oh instead of "legendary" birds/dogs/braile-faced monsters.

and if they are like kyogre and groudon, im assuming the legendary "trio" are yet to be unveiled.

en_ryu
07-21-2006, 10:43 PM

That doesn't matter really. I mean, fighting/dark/psychic is a good starter three because they work the other way too. Dark isn't very effective against fighting, fighting isn't very effective against psychic and psychic doesn't affect dark at all. It pretty much replaces the 4 times resistance Charizard had against Venusaur's grass moves.

If you click the above link, you'll see pictures of two new Pokemon, Rozureido and Korobooshi. There's a possibility that Rozureido is an evolved form of Roselia. Korobooshi? I don't know. Its body shape is reminiscent of Volbeat and Illumise, but I don't want to assume anything . . .

by the time D/P come out in the u.s (probably around feb. 2007, unless they really, and i mean really push for a holiday release) the normal DS's price will have probably gone down to $80 or $90. That's former isn't much more than a next gen game

torchamp

so they may keep the water-grass-fire triangle after all

hmm, this is certainly an interesting development. Perhaps they will go along with initial speculation and just be dual typed with F/D/P. This might be in response to the fact that the new attack split has drawn so much feedback (both positive and negative, but mostly negative) that GF decided to wait before messing with another solid game mechanic that's been around since the start of the series. Don't get me wrong, I'd be happy with a dark starter, but I am quite fond of the G/F/W triangle

08-05-2006, 10:56 PM
I was hoping the starters were going to be Dark/Fighting/Psychic, but I'm still glad they're the old types. The grass is a turtle? Odd. The ape is really ugly,IMO. At least, I'm sure its evolved forms will be cool looking. The penguin is the best of the 3,IMO. I hope it ends up as a Water/Ice, since afterall, it is a penguin.

I do hope the kangaroo,triceratops and dark cat are at least in the game. They looked really cool, especially the kangaroo.

I can't wait until all the new Pokemon are revealed. :cool:

when the penguin evolves do you think it will go Water/Ice and what about the Monkey and Turtle do you think they will get sub types when they evolve?

IF they become dual types, the tortoise will probably be either poison (like the vast majority of grass types) or it will be part ground.

The flaming ape, I am thinking either normal or fighting. Normal would be really nice if it got rid of the water weakness.

Yeah, those are going to be the fossils, all things considered. Nice to have something that isn't a bug or plant or a shellfish.

Turns out there has a been a change in the first gym leader, at least in name. Apparently gives the Coal Badge, so he is probably fire, which would be rather odd considering how in all of the games you really never got a water type that early... except for the starter -_-

Meh, screw it, My Poo-Flinger will STILL hand this dude his carboniferous rear end!

Yeah, those are going to be the fossils, all things considered. Nice to have something that isn't a bug or plant or a shellfish.

It'll be a ground gym, not a fire one.

Yeah, but there's one little thing. It's a ground gym.

If we do get Buizeru early game, it's good for the ground gym, but we can get a flying early anyways.

I don't think it is fire for some reasons -
1~ The Japanese drug dealer blue skY said it's ground.
2~ We already had fire in 2/3 Gym's generation and ground only once.
3~ An elemental of the starters will likely never be on the first Gym.

For Gyms I would say:

1- Ground
2- Poison
3- Grass
4- Insect
5- Ice
6- Ghost
7- Steel
8- Dark

What we got twice is very unlikely to hit us trice, so let's take out
Fire, Fighting, Water, Electricity, Flying, Psychic, Rock, Normal.
Dark sounds like a last Gym because we never had it before, and also because it sounds like a powerful type.

We got revealed some Grass Pokemons, so maybe we can expect a Grass gym with those new Pokemons?
Also we can expect a Minomucchi and a Korobooshi in the Insect gym.

Dorapion might be in the Poison Gym, or more likely in the Dark gym with Weavile.

I chose poison as second without really any back-up.
We had it only once so it is likely to be again..
Grass as third sounds likely, though I don't think it will have Rozueirdo
at such low levels.
Insect for 4th also lacks back-up, since we saw only one new insect and he looks like a wimp [no offense, mino].
The rest doesn't have any new Pokemon we have seen yet,
[Except Weavile] and I already explained the Dark gym.

[Bottom left]
But you can't really see well..

Blue Sea Dragoon
09-13-2006, 03:09 PM
Yeah, I can see Futaba town, the lake where you witness the legendary Pokemon and Kurogane City.

Also, there are three main lakes in Shinou. One's on the bottom left, the other is on the bottom right and the other is on the center of the top. If you look closely, they seem to form a triangle. Could the 4th generation legendary trio be located near the lakes?

09-13-2006, 03:13 PM
Hmm.. that would look like, one being some Plant, one some Icy thing and one a Mountain rock Pokemon?
It seems like there aren't any Surf-only areas on that map.
[Maybe that island on the left?]
I wonder, can't you cross those mountains, will you have to make all the long way up from the snow?
Maybe you will get a new TM later to dig trough the mountains?

I hope not. It would make the game longer. Besides, once you get Fly that's all you'll need to travel back to the towns.

Maybe you will get fly later? I'm pretty sure you WILL have to make the whole way trough the snow to go to the other side, then you will get Fly.

Also, is it me or I see some crosses on the right side of the mountains, 3 white crosses one under the other? Maybe a pokemon cemetary again..
Ghost gym please? :p

The blonde dude is one of your rivals.

It looks like you find the briefcase with the starters with your rival and after you pick your starters you get attack by Mukkurus. And then you give the briefcase with the remaining starter to Prof. Nanakamado. If it's like that, it would be cool.

Anyways. I think the underground will be inside the mountain range.

Perhaps they are. And guess what- Serebii has movesets for the starters!!!

http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/pokemon.shtml

BTW, since naetoru learns it, Leaf Storm is supposedly like Overheat, with a base power of 140, 5PP, and after each use SpA falls. Finally, a strong grass-type move!

Finnaly? And what is Frenzy Plant? And isn't Solar Beam strong?

frenzy plant is a special hyber beam. hyper beam is bad on pretty much everything but a cb'ing slaking. Solarbeam needs to have sunny day with it to work well, that's half your moveset taken up already. For naetouro (sp?) i'm thinking crunch, leech seed, curse, and leafstorm (it'll be the only special attack in this moveset) @ white herb/leftovers. As long as it has decent attack and defence he should make for a good starter

What are you talking about? Seriously it's a pain seeing a older guy than you [me] talk like that.
I'm talking about the fact that he was refering to the power itself [the NUMBER, which is 140 for Overeath, 150 for Frenzy Plant and 100 for Solar Beam] and then you suddenly say 'if [someone] has decent attack he can be an improved Venausaur.

Now, please tell me the connection between that fact and between the guy you are talking about that will be a 'improved venausaur' if he has decent stats?

I think I'm going with the Monkey. I mean a monkey! How creative! All the starters are creative! But my friend say's the monkey's weak. I think I'll still get it.
