    I do agree with you though, only really played Diamond and then White, some of the pokemon like the ice cream and the trash bag are pretty atrocious.

    yeah, i mean remember the good old days when we had pokemon with really inventive designs, like the cat, the monkey, the rock, the seal, the ghost, the mime, some mud, and the blackface pokemon.

    I thought yous were joking, just googled them

    Trubbish his name is ?

    I think I'll just go back and play Gold.
    It's also a bit funny, that I'd say most people commenting on this "Pokemon" thread are in their mid 20s :P , and I'd wager none under 18

    There were always a few dumb ones though, and with the amount of different pokémon, there's bound to be a few turnips (and possibly even ones that look like turnips) in the bunch. There's no chance of getting 700(ish) cool anythings. Quality will waver from time to time. As mentioned though, there are still plenty of deadly ones in the mix. Personally, I think Zebstrika is class, Durant is pretty cool too, and the little electric spider which I can't recall the name of right now is deadly. Not to mention the big guys like Stoutland, Emboar, Luxray, and lots of the dragon types.

    And on the note of most people here being mid-20's or over; it's no different than the Mario threads.

    I vaguely recall that the only halfway official estimate was 'over 50'. That, of course, could mean anything.

    I've got about 8 months to familiarize myself with the B/W 'mon, as I've only played Black, and to be honest, I couldn't name 90 percent of the new roster if they were in a lineup of one. Apparently, I've gotten old since the release of D/P/Pt, where I'd no such issues.

    Well, I've officially fallen off the wagon as far as this franchise is concerned. I got White when it was released; played it for an hour, then lost interest. Now I've gotten into it properly, spurred on by the announcement of the next generation.

    I've played seven minutes of Soul Silver, which I also got on its release day. So that'll be next (quite looking forward to the second gen nostalgia). I picked up Black 2 on sale two weeks ago, so I have that to play too.

    Some of the B/W Pokémon suck though. Pidove?! Of course, each generation has its weaker designs.
