So uh, I'm going to bump this topic now that this happened:


To be honest, the only one I dislike is the fish thing.

a Normal/Dragon king of red lions and an Electric/Steel hedgehog ok

I gotta say, they are starting to be more clever on designs each time we get new pokemon.
The ideas for them are very interesting, and for once I'm glad Grubbin won't evolve into a bug/flying type.
Drampa might actually turn out well even though I'm sort of not excited that it's Normal/Dragon.
Also, I like how Bruxfish is a trigger fish, and Water/Psychic type, it's ability does seem like it could be good in competitive play, especially against spammers.
The others are pretty nice especially Tapu Koko.

I really love that pokemon at 0:38, and its evolution looks really cool. I'm really liking the design of these new pokemon (except the fish, it's ugly)

I think that not all pokemon are made to be beautifull...

Why do a lot of people think Dunsparce might evolve into Drampa?
They are barley alike in several ways, yeah I understand the wings and body color but they don't look close enough to a match.

Drampa has big wings and Dunsparce has small wings. Thus, making hard to accept that Dunsparce will evolve into Drampa. It is more acceptable if Luvdisc evolves into Alomomola.

Dragonair is totally different from Dragonite.

Because Dunsparce is awesome.

Another reason is because drampa has a normal type in it, which dunsparance has too.

I hope that some very weak pokemon, like Ledian and Ariados, get an evolution or Mega that turns them into usable things.

I have to say, I like the older games (up to BW) much better than the new games (XY and forward). I much prefer the graphics, attacks and abilities, and Pokémon movesets and designs overall, as well as map layouts and concepts. Some of the newer games are just going too far imo and differing too much from the old games the creators just seem desperate with some of the Pokémon they've come up with.

I'm currently playing Pokémon Diamond and just finished the 7th gym. I'm training a Torterra, Machoke, Luxray, Bronzong, Golduck, and a Riolu (just got it as an egg before the 6th gym and it hatched as I left the 7th). Do y'all think I'll be fine taking on the 8th gym (Electric-type) with just Torterra and its move Earthquake and Electric-type immunity, or should I train up another Ground-type Pokémon or two or mor? (If so which one(s)?)

Torterra is god.

It is one of my favourite Pokémon for sure and quite a tank, but Earthquake only has 10 PP and although it has a Power and Accuracy of 100, I'm not sure I'll make it through all of the Gym Leader's Pokémon before its PP hits 0

Are there any Dugtrios in Pokemon Diamond?

I haven't encountered any yet; maybe at Victory Road. However, I have seen Hippopotas and was looking at training a Piloswine/Mamoswine, Hippopotas/Hippodon, and/or Steelix. Any recommendations other than that?

Also, it says that to evolve a Piloswine into Mamoswine you have to teach it the move Ancientpower, which it learns at Lv. 1, and then level it up. Is there some kind of Move Tutor in Pokémon Diamond or can I catch a Swinub with Ancientpower?

You need to use a Move Tutor. You can't catch a Swinub with Ancient Power, it doesn't learn the move.

Piloswine will evolve into Mamoswine if you used Move Tutor to relearn the move Ancientpower. Same method for Yanma.

Yanma learns it at level 33.

You need to use a Move Tutor. You can't catch a Swinub with Ancient Power, it doesn't learn the move.

But by breeding, you can have a Swinub with Ancientpower by breeding. This will happen if his father is Dunsparce, Piloswine, Mamoswine, and Kecleon.

According to Bulbapedia, Yanma evolves into Yanmega when leveled up while knowing not Ancient Power. While Piloswine evolves if it is relearning the Ancientpower. So thank you Linik for correcting me.
