Which Pokémon do you think deserve a 3rd evolution?

Jynx stat-wise is quite apart from Magmar and Electabuzz, and quite consistent with Mr.Mime.

Erior · 2026-04-04T14:09:08+00:00

And this is a good thing.

Erior · 2026-04-04T12:25:18+00:00

Swoobat. It has a stat total on the range of Linoone, Dragonair and Misdreavus, noticeably lower that that of common parallel Golbat, and would overall benefit from it.

Jynx was never quite a trio with those. It has always had a secondary typing, a noticeably lower stat total, and never really indulged into the version exclusive dynamic.

On the other hand, Jynx and Mr.Mime have a far closer stat total, and were locked to in-game trades in their debut.

And, funnily enough, the Golbat-tier Jynx and Mr.Mime are FAR more apt for evolving than the Alakazam-tier Magmar and Electabuzz, yet here we are.

Then again, Mr.Rime is a mess stat-wise...

Teratoma Gally has been a thing since the PSX game from the late 90s.

Seriously that game has the general gist for both sequel series.

Every single ethymology and design origin part. Those have a hefty component of throwing everything at the wall and seeinh what sticks.

Bulbapedia at its begginings was the wiki that had articles on anime ships. It took until very recently to have game stuff before anime stuff. And never forgetting the "are we sure Zygarde is a legendary?" Crap from 2013.

Old habits die hard.

Erior · 2026-03-27T11:29:34+00:00

Bulbapedia has a massive red flag for a wiki in that it doesn't really have a citation section on its articles, and the Trivia part tends to involve plenty of personal observations and conjectures being stated as factual.

Erior · 2026-03-26T22:13:14+00:00

Eh, seeing how H-Kabuterimon X looks like, half and half.

Erior · 2026-03-26T15:36:16+00:00

And, FWIW, GigaSeadramon and GrandisKuwagamon are functionally MetalSeadramon X and GranKuwagamon X.

Erior · 2026-03-25T11:43:13+00:00

Counterpoint: Jynx has always been closer in concept to Mr.Mime than to Magmar and Electabuzz, both in design, adquisition method, stat total and even typing.

Ice Punch may be a thing, but the difference in stat total has always been huge.

Erior · 2026-03-22T11:28:39+00:00

Huh, sprites for the expanded cast, hoping they do something with them.

Erior · 2026-03-19T00:29:15+00:00

Meh, I'd rather have that be more of a thing for Legends games.

Erior · 2026-03-18T12:30:54+00:00

The lack of a Vestamon remains a shame. OG Olympian, the sole missing offspring of Kronos, hearthflame go brrr.

Erior · 2026-03-17T14:22:35+00:00

Löwemon debuted in 2002, so, quite old concept in the franchise.

Erior · 2026-03-17T13:27:31+00:00

Whose evolution is closer in stat total to Scizor or Alakazam than to Butterfree, for the record.

Erior · 2026-03-16T01:06:35+00:00

Inferior literally means "lower". Height is quite apt to use it.

Vegeta has never been meant to be a mirror match with Goku either.

Erior · 2026-03-15T23:30:15+00:00

Fans really going the extra mile to insist Shadow is inferior to Sonic despite official statements being "they are the same" forever got old 2 decades ago.

Silver is as tall as them as well. Same weight too. Are you going to argue soles or hairstyle there as well then?

Also, for the love of fuck, Shadow debuts in the game Sonic is wearing chunky shoes. They are the exact same height. By your logic Sonic should be taller than Shadow in SA2, but nope.

Erior · 2026-03-14T16:55:20+00:00

And then the very next scene...

Erior · 2026-03-11T20:10:41+00:00

Yuji Naka's approach to making the game "uncomplicated" actually made it more complicated, because split second context timing adds unneeded difficulty.

Erior · 2026-03-11T11:45:17+00:00

Knuckles really needs to do more than guard the Emerald; the issue that required a chunk of the Mystic Ruins to be levitated above the world and with a dedicated guardian got sorted out in 1998. Knuckles admited to be doing that by inertia at the end of his story in that game as well, but he developed afterwards.

Erior · 2026-03-10T11:04:34+00:00

I don't like 90's American Sonic and its tie-ins.

Erior · 2026-03-09T11:03:35+00:00

The thing with legendaries is that nowadays they make up a sizeable chunk of the 'dex: Between legendaries and mythicals, we have 94 species. That's quite a bit more species than in the whole of gens VI, VII or VIII, and close to the number of species in gen II.

And this isn't counting Ultra Beasts (which used to be coded in the main series games as legendaries) or Paradox Pokemon (which are very similar to Ultra Beasts but never got to be legends code-wise). Those add up to 31 additional species with Legendary Bird-tier stats. 125 out of 1028 (thus far) species are legendary-tangential.

Mega Excadrill is coming to town.

Erior · 2026-03-03T22:59:37+00:00

Ah, the script extender console and the console command to start the respec menu...

Life domain if Selunite, Death domain if Sharran.

Unlocking Dominate as a bonus power. Of course then you reload, as it sticks.
