Nintendo aren't remaking the same pokemon, Pig, rooster and monkey are animals from the chinese new year

Hmm...

Then I guess the next one will be a Fire/Fighting rat, or a Fire/Fighting ox, or a Fire/Fighting tiger, or a Fire/Fighting horse, or how about a FIRE/FIGHTING SHEEP?!

Package it in whatever Chinese New Year animal you want, the last three Fire starters are ALL THE SAME FIRE/FIGHTING THING!!

Plus, I don't think that a "Chinese New Year" with the Fire starters theory works. True Charizard would work as the dragon alongside Emboar (pig), Blaziken (rooster), and Infernape (monkey), but what about Typhlosion? Last time I checked, there was no volcanic porcupine in the Chinese Zodiac. So unless they're planning on creating a new fire dragon starter (essentially remaking Charizard!) this theory makes no sense!

And unless you can come up with an explanation for the penguin, gecko, alligator, mudskipper, turtles, sea lion, dinosaur, and parasitic plant on Venusaur's back, don't even TRY to argue that Serperior is the snake!

Plus, what I meant by there being no more originality with the Pokemon is how they created a new Pokemon that is really just an old Pokemon in a different form! Plus, DO THEY HAVE TO CREATE A NEW PIKACHU STAND IN FOR EVERY SINGLE GAME?! First Pichu! Then Plusle and Minun! THEN THE SQUIRREL!! And FINALLY the FLYING SQUIRREL!!!

IT'S ALL THE SAME THING!

But when I look at Darksilvania's work, I see originality! I see things I haven't seen before! True there is a scarecrow, a bear, a three-headed dragon, etc. But the way he's constructed them; the way DS gives them their OWN life...

THAT IS WHAT IS MISSING FROM THE POKEMON GAMES!

I looked up on wikipedia and there is four elements Fire, Steel, Water and Grass so they might have another typing instead, but yeah I understand what you mean, I feel the same way, I noticed a lack of original ideas when Gen 5 was released.

I know, right?

I'm just hoping that if/when they make a new Pokemon game with new starters they do something unique with the fire starter. A fire/bug type! A fire/steel type! Or even a fire/electric type!

That being said, PKMN Black and White are NOT bad games! I'm loving the White version, and I'm having so much fun, I argue that it is just as good a game as Skyrim and Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. I just wish that they'd get some new ideas, and Darksilvania here HAS a lot of new ideas.



Hey! Sorry I blew up like that on you, man! It's just when I think about how there hasn't been a really original fire starter since Typhlosion, it makes me so angry.

I just want to see something as epic as that fire/grass scarecrow!

That was amazing, if Nintendo actually did that though I just think it would cause controversy though. Grass/ Fire is interesting makes think of hold load of ideas, Tiki-Torch, Jack-o-Lantern,(Maybe Grass/Dark or Grass/Ghost)

How would a grass/fire scarecrow cause controversy? What's so taboo about it?

if it was a starter it would, and modern society would find some sort of excuse.

Simple solution: Don't use the fire/grass type as a starter.

Unless the other starters are grass/water and water/fire that is.

Besides, said that the scarecrow would be cool in a Pokemon game , but I didn't say it should be a starter, and DS didn't create it as a starter.

As for modern society finding some problem with it: Modern society is so paranoid and defensive, they probably think that Darth Vader is a racist image just because his armor is black, and Link from "Zelda" is a terrorist just for carrying bombs around!

BTW: I'm exaggerating - a bit.

I don't see anything wrong/controversial with a fire/grass scarecrow. If someone does think there is something dirty about it, then that's their problem, not the Pokemon's. The only insensitive Pokemon I've ever seen was Jinx, and I was ignorant to it until I read the article of "banned Pokemon".

Don't worry about it. The only thing I want to worry about with Pokemon is the possibility of a fourth fire/fighting starter. If that happens, I'll probably scream so loud they'll hear me from across the Atlantic.

Oh right, and yeah ANOTHER FIRE/FIGHTING starter, don't think anyone will be happy.

I know right? That is the whole reason why I said they're running out of original ideas!

Hmm...

Actually, now that I think about it, a set of grass/fire, fire/water, and water/grass would be really interesting for starters. (So long as they don't do any more monkeys or turtles!)

What do you think?
