Okay so... Slowpoke becomes a Slowbro when a Shellder attaches to its tail. So far so good. Then, if the Shellder attaches to its head, it becomes a Slowking. Allright, I can buy that.
But... What the actual fuck is that thing?

So, watching more of the anime and can't help thinking that I should make a MST3K show about each episode.
Anyhow, one of the episodes had an old man having a battle with Clemont and Clemont was close to winning, and so the old man said he would use "his super move" and then everyone else is like "OH NO A MOVE THAT COULD HURT THE POKEMON" and as he tried to tell his Pokémon to use the move, his back gave out and he fell to the floor.
For some reason everyone gave a sigh of relief and Ash said "Oooooh, they meant he would hurt himself, not the pokemon" like it was better than he got hurt instead of the Pokémon that could most likely handle it.
RE: Pokemon Thread! - retrolinkx - 08-14-2014
If anyone of you have ever seen the episode Forest Grumps there is a scene in which Ash, Misty, Brock, James, Jessie and Meowth are hanging onto a bridge for dear life. Ash is at the top, with everyone else holding on to him, and it was shown that he can hold onto the bridge with one hand while several people are holding onto him.
If you assume the average persons weight is around 106 pounds for a man, and a 100 pounds for a woman, Ash was technically being pulled down by 412 pounds or around 30 stone and held onto the bridge with one hand for a few seconds.
Ash may be the strongest ten year old in the world of Pokémon.

Its the Slowbro coming to realization that something bit it and is hanging on.

Here's ash holding a Larvitar. Larvitar weighs 158.7 lbs. or 72.0 kg

Here's Ash with a Hippopotas on his head. Hippopotas weighs 109.1 lbs. or 49.5 kg
So yeah, Ash is the strongest ten year old in the world of Pokemon and he proves this many times.

Yep, just watched a Pokémon episode where a Pokémon was smart enough to hypnotize several dozen Pokemon and people and create a super weapon to try and take over the world but was foiled by Ash and Friends plus Team Rocket.
These are actually pretty good episodes.

I kind of want to do an online double battle with an illumise and volbeat at the head. The Illumise being female and named Marilyn, the Volbeat being male and named Monroe.

Ahh excuse me, Pokemon Company. In episode XY019 we see Malamar hypnotise people and command them yet(!) according to the game they put you to sleep, they don't command someone/Pokemon. This directly conflicts with the game's Pokedex information . I mean, *snort snort*, are we supposed to believe that this is some sort of *snort* "magic Malamar" or something?

Boy I sure hope somebody got fired for that blunder.
RE: Pokemon Thread! - Psychospacecow - 08-16-2014
It sure is easier to level up in the new Pokemon. I've got to wonder though. Can I get the old exp. share as well?

So, there's some way to focus it on one pokemon then?
