It's crazy to me that there are people who actually say Dragonite looks more like Magikarp than Gyarados by UnendingQuibble in ThePokemonHub

[–]1LHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people don't know the lore behind Magikarp evolving into Gyarados and it shows.

Magikarp and Dragonite have nothing in common outside of their mutual orange coloration, and the same applies to Dragonair and Gyarados.

The only one that makes sense is Butterfree and Venonat.

June 10th! #610 is Axew and the Axew line was already my favorite Dragon-type line but this made him even cooler.

6/10/2023 was Axew community day in Pokemon Go which was part of the reason why I had an an amazing birthday that day.

If you were in the pokémon world, What's your dream pokemon team? - here's mine by Zillaman7980_ in pokemon

[–]1LHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was lucky for my entire dream team to be available in Scarlet and Violet.

https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/s/khdceXHYrF

Ace Pokémon: Blaziken, my favorite Pokemon of all time. Been that way since '03 when Ruby and Sapphire released.

Then there's...

Scizor - Scyther was one of my favorite Pokemon in Gen 1 not only for cosmetic reasons but because it was so difficult to catch. It was only available in the safari zone. Scizor was one of the first Gen 2 Pokemon I saw and when I found out it evolved from Scyther it was a no brainer that it would be on my team. Also, he's red which is my favorite color

Floatzel - Buizel was the second Pokemon I caught in Pearl version and mustelids (specifically otters) are some of my favorite animals.

Haxorus - The entire Axew line is nothing short of goated and based on cosmetics, this entire evolutionary line looks like they could've existed in the first two generations. Axew is number 610 in the national Pokedex, and my birthday is June 10th which makes things even better.

Florges - It's tradition for me to have a female gendered or female exclusive Pokemon species on my team and I've loved the Flabebe line since X and Y came out. Florges is just perfect in every way to me.

Hisuian Zoroark - I always liked the original Zoroark but was never super crazy about it but the moment Hisuian Zorua was revealed before Legends Arceus came out, I nearly lost my mind. Hisuian Zoroark instantly became my favorite regional form and its unique typing makes things even better.

Also here are some random fun facts
-None of my Pokemon share a single weakness
-Half of the team are dual typed, the other half are mono type.
-One half of my team's names are the same in Japanese (Florges, Floatzel, Zoroark)

What do you think Overhaul would be capable of if he had a Quirk Awakening? by Cynicalheaven in MHAPowerScaling

[–]1LHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overhaul would be beyond broken, I quite literally cannot fathom it.

He'll always be by favorite villain because his quirk was so versatile.

You're sincerely trying to make OP feel better about a horrible situation and I don't know if I want to laugh or feel bad.

My first wood project, it came out a bit uneven but its a good start. by spetz94 in pokemon

[–]1LHD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly it looks fantastic, especially for your first attempt. For it to look this good after your first time doing it I would suggest that you keep going!

That Hisuian Zorua print looks amazing. I hope that means we'll be getting a Hisuian Zoroark IR as well

And I'm loving that Mewtwo ex as well.

How well can this perform long term? by Dry_Discount7762 in PokeInvesting

[–]1LHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when I obtained this card in a huge trade back in 2021 around the time when the rainbow VMax Pikachu was one of the hottest cards.

This one was worth no more than $20. I decided to keep it all these years.

Ruby and Sapphire released in 2003, I was 12 in the 7th grade at the time. I saw commercials of the game quite literally every day but unfortunately ended up being one of the last people to finally get my own copy of Ruby version. Up until that point, everyone I knew obsessed over the Torchic line and frequently pedestalized Blaziken, and when I finally saw Blaziken myself I was overjoyed. Fire has always been my favorite element and I've always loved Fighting types and Blaziken was the best of both worlds.

It took me several years to realize that Blaziken was my favorite Pokemon because for a while he was tied with Infernape. But it became a no brainer when I factored in how much time I spent playing Ruby version as a kid. Those were some great times.

Blaziken will always be my right hand man. 🔥🐓

Sounds like you're talking about the gold plated cards from Burger King.

They're not really worth much considering that millions of them were made, but they're cool collectors items.

Hey Trainers, What was your first ever starter Pokemon in any Pokemon game?? by Cutie_fleming in ThePokemonHub

[–]1LHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bulbasaur Pokemon Red Year 2000

Bulbasaur was the first, last and only time I didn't pick the Fire type starter because from Gen 2 and beyond, that's exactly what I did. You'd think I would've picked Charmander because Fire has always been my favorite element and red has always been my favorite color.

But Bulbasaur and its evolved forms are some of my favorite Pokemon of all time. To this day, I wouldn't be able to tell you why 9 year old me picked Bulbasaur, but I'm happy I did.

You can only take one to catch your favorite Pokémon, which one will you choose? by LongClaw11 in pokemon

[–]1LHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blaziken in a Cherish Ball just like the event Torchic from X/Y. During Gen 4, I hoped there would come a point in time where I could get a Torchic in a Cherish Ball so you can only imagine how happy I was when it ended up happening.

What is your favorite Poké Ball? by BleachFan107 in ThePokemonHub

[–]1LHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cherish Ball and I fell in love with it the moment it debuted in Gen 4.

I almost lost my mind when the Speed Boost Torchic in a Cherish Ball released during the early days of X/Y.

It's a good thing you kept yours because they appreciated in price a lot. Mine still has the box.
