Pokemon Grey?
I was searching around on the web and found some rumors that the third installment of Generation 5 would be Pokemon Grey, and that Kyurem will be the centre of the storyline, as opposed to Reshiram or Zekrom. I think that this would be great for the B&W series, as it would kind of cap it off, just as Crystal, Emerald and Platinum did before for their respective series'.
Unfortunately, this is only just a rumour and rumours most of the time consist of made up information. The discussion of the third installment to Gen 5 has been thriving on the discussion boards of forums, so I'm not sure of the credibility of the statements being made. We'll just have to wait and see won't we....

Dragon Pokemon?
Dragon Pokemon have been present throughout the entire Pokemon series, and have sustained a reputation to be overly strong, and overall better than 'average' Pokemon. I personally think that they are the strongest type of Pokemon, as they can learn a very wide variety of attacks, and their high stats may allow them to strike even at Pokemon that they are weak to with a diverse moveset. For example, Salamence.
Salamence is an incredibly fast Pokemon with a very high attack, and could easily land a damaging attack on a Pokemon with a type advantage over it. For example if a Salamence was battling an ice Pokemon. As Salamence can learn powerful moves such as flamethrower etc., it will be able to land effective and damaging hits on the ice Pokemon, as long as the ice Pokemon doesn't have a chance to attack.
There have been a pseudo-legendary Dragon Pokemon introduced into almost every Pokemon series so far, bar the Gold, Silver and Crystal series, where Tyranitar, a psuedo-legendary dark/ground was introduced instead. Although you could argue that Kingdra, was this series' pseudo-legendary dragon. The pseudo legendary dragon Pokemon are:
What is your favourite pseudo-legendary? I think that Dragonite takes the cake, original and just awesome. However Hydreigon is bordering on my favourite. Whoever thought there would be a dark, three-headed Dragon Pokemon? Let me know what your favourite Pseudo-legendary is, and why. I'm planning on writing about pseudo-legendaries more in future posts (not just dragon ones), so stay tuned.

Pokemon Black and White
The latest installments in the Pokemon series are the two games Pokemon Black and White. In my opinion they are a minor step upwards in terms of graphics, with the lowering of the camera view, but a major step up in terms of battling and gameplay. The speed of battles increased, allowing me to progress through training and battling quicker, which I thought was a nifty little improvement. The real time seasons was also a major aesthetic improvement in my eyes, however the biggest improvement was the return to an 'original' themed Pokemon game. This was featured through many different aspects of the actual game, mainly the routes being reset to route 1, and the restriction placed upon players, of only being able to obtain Unova region Pokemon up until post-Elite 4. Personally, this forced me to experiment with the new Pokemon, and create a dynamic list by getting to know the new Pokemon and their types etc.
My main 'peeve' with Pokemon B & W, is that the Pokemon look RIDICULOUS, aside from a select few, which have some actual merit. Some of the outrageous 'creations' that the Game Freak designers produced actually caused me to burst out in laughter and wonder whether the designers had some inkling of creativeness left in their brains. Some of these Pokemon bordered on complete absurdity. Take a look at this Pokemon,
I actually don't understand this Pokemon. When I first saw it and it's pre-evolution Woobat I immediately saw it as a failed attempt to recreate a bat-like pokemon similar to the formidable Golbat and Zubat. Although Swoobat does live up to the incredibly annoying reputation of it's 1st Gen counterpart Golbat. ;)
What about this one. Once again a horrible attempt at recreating a 1st Gen superior, pure fighting type similar to Machamp. When I see this I don't see an awesome fighting Pokemon. I see an absurd deformed bear shaped Pokemon. Oh, with an ugly red clown nose and a dong on it's head. So you're telling me everyone of these ridiculous creatures carries massive concrete pillars around?
I literally cried when I saw this. C'mon Game Freak, you created a fricken ice cream Pokemon. What a joke, I cannot believe that this is seen as a legitimate Pokemon.
Although I harshly criticize some of these horrid designs, I think that several Pokemon look incredibly awesome. Including the two main legendaries, Reshiram and Zekrom. I am incredibly fond of dragon Pokemon, so I was very impressed with the three-headed dark dragon, Hydreigon and the axe-head Pokemon, Haxorus. Another surprisingly awesome looking Pokemon is Scolipede, which puts a whole new, 'dangerous' or 'intimidating' spin on Bug Pokemon.
The awesome gameplay, and the original theme of Pokemon Black and White are definite winners. What brings these games down are ridiculous designs that don't constitute the original elements of an actual 'Pokemon'.

Pikachu :D
Hey guys, talk to me about Pikachu!
I have a level 81 Pikachu which I have E.V. trained to maximize her special attack and speed, and the results so far have been incredible. She boasts an incredibly high speed, and an almost equally high spec. attack.
Because of this I'm able to land an incredibly damaging attack on most pokemon before they can do anything :). I'm actually very proud of my Pikachu, as it one of my most finely E.V. trained pokemon. Adding to it's incredible spec. attack is it's hold item; a light ball. Which effectively doubles its spec attack and attack. The result is an incredibly dangerous Pikachu!
I don't know about you, but I think Pikachu is one of the best electric pokemon in the game. Primarily, what I want for an electric pokemon is speed, and special attack. Speed, to enable the pokemon to land damaging attacks by attacking first; and special attack, as most strong electric attacks are special.
Name the strongest electric pokemon in your opinion, and why. Personally, I love Pikachu.

Pokemon Yellow: Mystery and adventure never to be recreated
I've always thought that pokemon yellow was the most insanely awesome, and hardest pokemon game to date. No matter how many new, graphically stunning 3-d games that boast fancy designs and new attacks that Game Freak throws out at us, I still long to revisit one of the most original games in the whole pokemon series. I deeply regret throwing my good old Gameboy Colour in the bin a couple of years ago, probably one of the biggest mistakes of my life.. ;)
Not one pokemon series after Gen I and Gen II has evoked such a sense of mystery and adventure as Pokemon Yellow did, and I'm sure that any fellow Pokemon gamer would agree. I still remember the first steps into the wild grass on route 1, and the feeling that an epic adventure was about to begin when progressing through the grass. The whole idea of undergoing a grand adventure with a cute yellow creature called Pikachu following your every step was unheard of, especially in the RPG gaming category. I think that the sense of adventure and mystery created by the Red, Blue and Yellow games is something that can never be recreated.
Although Pokemon Yellow was not aesthetically beautiful comparative to the latest installment in the Pokemon series, I think the gameplay elements were what reeled in the millions of Pokemon fans that still stay loyal to the series today. The challenging nature of Yellow was what reeled me in, as well as the fact that I had been given the opportunity to raise and fight with up to six 'creatures' that I could teach awesomely powerful moves such as hyper beam. Compared to every other game in the series, Pokemon Yellow is on a higher level in terms of difficulty as well. The gym leaders in my opinion were much tougher in Yellow than in Gold, Silver or Crystal, in terms of leveling and general pokemon. Battling legendaries was such an adrenaline and excitement rush, and the thrill brought on by catching them was unexplainable! Although legendaries are present in every single pokemon game, the fact that these were the first, and to put it simply, 'ultimate pokemon' was purely awesome. Mewtwo had that 'unstoppable' aura that isn't present in the latter games, as typing and such as enabled ultimate pokemon such as Mewtwo to have weaknesses. :(
Apart from the fact that I find Pokemon Yellow simply incredible, I still very much enjoy playing the latter games, such as Emerald, Fire Red, Platinum, Heart Gold and finally Pokemon Black. Emerald and Fire Red from the 3rd Gen brought in my possibly my favorite pokemon ever, Rayquaza, and also added many elements to the game that improved it greatly. The 4th Gen games Platinum and Heart Gold (My favorite out of Gen 4) were another incredible improvement to the series, my particular favorite in Platinum is that you don't have to actually catch every pokemon, as you only have to 'see' them to record their data. This took a lot of hassle out of the game and allowed me to almost complete it in a lesser time frame. It unfortunately sacrificed the principle objective of the original pokemon series. 'Gotta Catch 'Em All!'. Heart Gold is undoubtedly my favorite, because it combines the original Gen II series with the graphically superior 4th Gen series. I thought that was incredible, even though it was publicly seen as a filler between new pokemon series. I'll go on about Pokemon Heart Gold in a future post.. ;)
That's all I can be bothered writing about for now!
Btw...Did you know that you can somewhat legitimately obtain a Mew in Pokemon Yellow :P
First Post!
Hey everyone! :D
I'm Slowpoke Tail and this is my blog about Everything Pokemon!
A little about me:
Firstly I'm 16 years old, from Australia, and I've been on the Pokemon bandwagon ever since I first played Pokemon Yellow around 11 years ago. I've played a Pokemon game from every series that's come out so far. Personally Heart Gold has been my absolute favorite!
This blog is just a place where I will discuss anything about Pokemon, from favorites to pokemon movesets and ideal teams to the different generations. Whatever you guys comment about I will write about. I will post another article soon most likely comparing the older generations with the newer in terms of gameplay, awesomeness and other minor stuff such as attacks and graphics. Hopefully you guys will enjoy it!
