I have learned much from that post. Including...

- You don't get your pokemon from a professor anymore. It's just the best birthday gift ever.
- These are some slow fucking pokemon. 40 and 55 Base Speed Stats? At the final forme?
- It's fucking sad when the grass type has the best overall stats.
- We're going with Grass/Ground again?
- I like the water one more now. It should turn out to be a better version of Poliwrath.
- The Fire one is different for a starter but its probably just a slow Houndoom.
- Music hasn't changed much but need to warm up to it
- Trying to figure out what the hell that yellow thing that comes up across the Pokemon's face is [2nd video; 0:17]

I don't think those are going to be the final forms' stats. Way too slow of a speed stat to be a Final Form.

I really like how the sprites are constantly moving. Adds more realism.

It's interesting how they tend to show more angles during the pokémon fight because it adds more depth. Could I just say that the pokémon are becoming more and more weird-looking as we go on. I couldn't even tell what the others are supposed to be. And there's visibly a lack of cute pokémon lately. I like the zebra though...

blah, i hate the type-age (kind of) that they chose!  fire/dark!

but i don't remember there ever being a grass/ground!  please refresh my memory!

Cough* Big turtle with a tree on its shell cough*

Or just Torterra for short 

[Ethan Brooks (c)]

oh, wow *facepalm*  they should make it like, grass/Psychic, that'd be interesting!

EDIT:  I know it's kinda late, but I just got Pokemon HeartGold!!

my team, most likely:
Meganium
Crobat
Miltank (most likely using Donphan instead, though)!
Forretress
Octillery
Girafarig

[Mega (Tre)]

I gave pokemon a chance but my game would freeze everytime you or a npc would reach on spot.

Cool team Henry.

Cool team Henry. 

thanks, i decided to go for some type coverage, while using some pokemon not many people use (the 2nd half, people use Crobat kinda, Meganium is a lesser used starter, and Donphan I KNOW people love!)
