interesting idea- yet i must say you guys do realise that they have already made every single new pokemon in black & white??

They are: a) producing
b) promoting
c) translating into english right now

I rather like the idea of that. Not sure what they'd look like though. Being fish 'n' all.[/color]

A solid NO. is a counterpart to , I don't want that pair to be messed up.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
THE GAMES AREN'T DONE AND NOTHING IS SETTLED UPON UNTIL THEY'RE RELEASED.
AND TRANSLATING INTO ENGLISH?
IMPOSSIBLE. THAT CLEARLY DOESN'T BEGIN UNTIL TWO MONTHS BEFORE THE US RELEASE.

HOW SILLY OF YOU TO THINK THEY DO ALL THIS IN ADVANCE.

No actually, I think they do make the games in advance. Like a LONG TIME in advance. Like, they were producing D/P/P before Emerald came out.

In the defense of anyone who didn't detect sarcasm in this or any thread on the forum (namely the admittedly confusing conversations going on in the GEN V NEWS thread), it is understandably harder to detect than when talking with someone in person obviously because you can't pick up all the signs, such as tone of voice and visual cues

But seriously.
If they want to have a Pokemon evolve five different ways based on those hidden stats,
they should create another one.

Sorry...Fatlax?

You mean like a new Eevee?

No. Snorlax doesn't need an evolution. I think it would ruin him.

You mean like a new ?

Haha, kinda. Or a new

I was basically saying that should only evolve with Beauty because that his thing.
And if they want to have any pokemon evolve by the other contest stats, it shouldn't be any of the already-existing Pokemon.

That said, I have a very uneasy feeling that since Isshu is suppose to be so far away, that we are possibly going to be getting a Hoenn type re-birth with possibly 158 new pokemon (To bring us up to 651) with VERY LITTLE overlap of old pokemon in the game (Think the region dex will probably have like 200 pokes in it). Most likely the only rehashes will probably be old Hoenn pokemon that weren't easy to catch in the last two DS games.

{spinda} I think there needs to be a Spinda evolution of some sort. Then I'll have a good excuse to use one on my team...

I think this is a mistake.

However, I could see 3 things helping Spinda out:
a) A "thick club"-style pokemon-specific item. Perhaps the "Spinda-Belt", found on wild spinda?, doubles? each of it's stats. Then it'd ALMOST be servicable!!! (and it would make thief a much more impotant move).
b) A "Spinda-signature move" - something that has to do with it's spots!!! I don't know, but you know?
c) A Spinda-pal move, where another pokemon can learn a move (perhaps by leveling up after a double battle with a Spinda), something like "Spinda-Throw", which has to do with having a Spinda in your party.
Options:
1. You "throw" Spinda at the opponent, and it does damage equal to your guy's attack and spinda's attack? (sort of like a "beat up" variant, but high power!!! like 80-100 base power, fails if Spinda's not in your party or if it's out in a dual battle, and hit's twice one for your guy, one for the spinda?
2. Spinda-Summons - In single-battles, your other pokemon uses this move and the first Spinda in your party shows up, ready to battle as if it was a double-battle. Unique, but given how sucky Spinda is!!!
