If they actually go about making a 'god of the multiverse' or some other self-topping thing like that, then I think a shark will have been jumped. I completely agree about having PokéGods of more narrowly defined things like illusion, maybe the stars, and some other things. But if they keep trying to top themselves with relative strength of Pokémon, it's going to turn into DBZ.

Yoshi. "WE GO FOR GOD!"
I always thought there couldn't be a fifth gen thanks to Arceus (or Mew, if you wanna look at it that way (Arceus >>>> Mew :3)). If I recall correctly, they didn't really refer to Arceus as "god," even though we all know they pretty much did. What if they don't mean to top god in the fifth gen? I mean, I'm really hoping they make some unique-not-unique legendaries. Ever see a bug-legendary that isn't Arceus? I want one of those. Last edited by Buizel456; May 14, 2010 at 07:00:37 PM.

Who says we have to have Gods of Gods? We could have more minor legendaries. For example, Celebi isn't the god of anything, it just time travels and makes forests grow. We could just have legendaries with great powers, but don't rule over one specific theme (time, space, nightmares, what-have-you.)

I'd like to see more diversified typings of legendaries like Fight, Poison, and Bug. I'd also like to see new dual typings that haven't been made yet; something like Water/Ghost maybe?
Oh yeah, one more point: I'd like to see legendaries that can be used for competitive battles. |

How can they make a legendary pokemon more powerful than the god pokemon itself? 5th gen has to be the hardest to pull off and hopefully the last because isnt 493 enough? Sure pokemon shouldn't die but, what ideas will they have? A hamburger pokemon? Next thing you know they start with ice cream or Mario or even human beings. I'm think a pokemon more powerful then god has to be a pokemon of all universes'. A pokemon that is the all of all and not an over sized cookie.

They can simply create more legendaries that are weaker than Arceus, but are still strong. I have noticed a lot of people saying that it doesn't make sense to create a legendary Pokémon in the 5th generation that is weaker than Arceus (in other forums). I fail to see what's so 'hard' or 'weird' to do that; it perfectly makes sense for me. Here's something to think about: When Mew (and possibly Mewtwo) was first introduced to us, we used to think that it was the ancestor of all Pokémon (and indirectly, the 'god' of Pokémon, somewhat). I, or rather we, found it very normal to have weaker legendaries released in the later generation - the 2nd generation, back then. Therefore, I don't see why people are making a big fuss about Arceus' existence, and the need of toppling it by releasing a more 'omnipotent' legendary. I mean, I am not able to identify any progressive link between the legendaries of the older generations and the legendaries of the newer generations. The creation of a new region can be interpreted practically as discovering a new land inhabited by new species of Pokémon. These new species include legendaries that are unique and not known nor seen to man before. Arceus remains the god, and the equation remains the same in this case. I hope I clarified myself as much as possible. Last edited by Shadow; February 4, 2010 at 10:18:31 AM. |

To clarify some points of my own:
My "Gods of Gods statement is something of a reference to Marvel, where even heaven, hell, and related powers are dwarfed by superheroes and supervillians. I was using it as a phrase that meant that God won't be the stopping point for Pokemon. As for "better than Arceus", that simply referred to the people who said, "How can you top God?" It's just an example I used. In the next generation, I highly doubt that a legend will be created to top Arceus. But it is still a possibility I'd like to entertain. There you go, hopefully my statements seem a bit clearer. -posted using the DSi Browser- |

I want a water+fire type legendary, specifically, usable of course, and with ok moves, but not too cheap.
Besides that, I'd like to see a ground,water,bug, and especially flying type legendary, I know some are already legends, but we need them combined in with another type. The only thing that I don't want to see in legendarys is psychic type. We have enough of those. |

2) Is 493 enough? Isn't 151 enough? No, i'm sure Gamefreak will surpass our thoughts as to how many Pokemon there can be. Will there be similarities as time passes(see Rattata -> Bidoof)? Yes, there very much will be. But i'm sure that there'll still be room to fit on our Pokedexes...until maybe 10th Gen...That'll be pushing it. 3 "even human beings" May I introduce you to Jynx, the Human-Shape Pokemon? |

Yes, I just hope they don't lose it with this idea. Imagine. A hippie pokemon named peace well they already kinda did it with Alakazam. But, sooner or later they're going to put lucky from the lucky charms commercial to where you have to chase him down. More mashmellow power! Sorry, they already have a so called Zuora and Zozorark in 5th gen so they're just fine but, if 5th gen would be the last one that would be fine by me. They would be making to many spin-offs. But,... someday... they... will get to become so greedy that they...make...(gulp)... A TERRIBLE POKEMON GAME AND BIGGEST FAILURE EVER CREATED AND EVEN WORSE THAN POKEMON RANCH AND THE BIGGEST INSULT TO POKEMON FANS. SO BAD THAT WE WILL NEVER PLAY A SINGLE POKEMON GAME AFTER THAT AND WILL THROW ALL THAT POKEMON MERCHINDISE OUT THE STREET AND LET ALL THOSE DREAMS KILLED BY A CAR/TRUCK/TRAIN TO END IT!!!...(sigh)...and then you'll pretty much forget pokemon after that and never play or hear it ever again. And to end it call the air force to kill anybody with a pokemon game. Sorry, I just lost it. Now then, yes the 5th gen game should be awesome.

No resistances, no super effective hits, only neutral hits. I for one like the idea. I would say it would make a decent defensive pokemon, Although if something like that were made it would have to have good defensive and special defensive stats otherwie spiritomb would still outclass it with its ability to nullify psychic, normal, and fighting.

I like the idea of Life/Death
I want a like, REALLY REALLY hardcore psychic/death type or something LOL That has a story behind it.. like it was actually KILLED a long time ago because it was so evil, and then brought back accidentally by magic or something. high SP ATK & ATK YES PLEASE >< And then the opposite.. something that was created to fight it, like a GOOD(light) machine or something.. Really high SP DEF & DEF PLEASE <3 |

That`s basically what Pokemon XD`s shadow Pokemon were in a nutshell. They did have types, but were resistant to everything, and only other shadow moves would do regular damage. The PP of Shadow moves was infinite, and would also be super-effective against any other regular Pokemon.

Yeah, Shadow Pokemon were pretty overpowered in Pokemon XD. In Colosseum, they only had one more, Shadow Rush, which made them boring to use. They had resistance to every regular attack, and super-effective hits on any regular Pokemon, with limitless PP. But the thing that made them for fun to use in Pokemon XD was that there were various new moves added. There was a move called Shadow Sky which had a "Hail" effect on all non-Shadow Pokemon, Shadow variants of Flamethrower, Ice Beam, and Thunderbolt for Shadow Moltres, Articuno, and Zapdos, and a Shadow variant of Lugia`s AeroBlast to name a few. I imagine they gave the shadow Pokemon so much resistance to motivate players to use shadow Pokemon of their own against them, since doing so was the only (good) way to purify them. I personally would enjoy seeing another installment in the shadow Pokemon series, they worked well as RPGs, and with new Pokemon like Giratina, Lucario, and Darkrai, they could be expanded on a fair bit. |

There are still a lot of different cultures and myths that Nintendo can pull from. To me it just seems like most pokemon are based of far eastern cultures... Ninetails, Arcanine, etc. I really wanna see some serious creativity though. There is so much potential for awesomeness! I really wanna see some Russian elements and perhaps even Celtic, and Nordic influences!
I really wanna see some feathers though... and new fossils... i thought they were kinda lackluster in Pearl, and Diamond. Feather Fossil Spine Fossil Fang Fossil Tusk Fossil Razor Fossil the list goes on... |
#54

Perhaps this is jsut my own warped fanon, but my impression is that Arceus is creation, which is life in a nutshell. Giratina is destruction, AKA death.
I'd love to seem some legends with types that have never been done before. I actually created my own Fakemon Fighting type Great One, in fact. There is potential for any number of lesser Great Ones to be created. |

I think that a bug type Great One would be a good addition to the ranks. Something based off of a butterfly or something.

Or it counts, just not to you LoPun. ;P
But I seriously don't believe that the Fifth generations legendary Pokemon have to be better than God. Even though Arceus is supposed to be the God of all Pokemon. So Generation V of legendary Pokemon will certainly be interesting to see. As long as they aren't completely uncreative and aren't lame, I don't have a problem with whatever types they may be. |

Ok a little off topic here, but a few suggestions to Pokemon creators. Pokemon will end sooner or later. Its inevitable. But it the time its here I would LOVE to see new types and a Badger Pokemon. Oh and a Dolphin perhaps? And I think that arceus was released too early. My legendary suggestion? A Rock and Lighting type. Sounds obserd but hey, what about the movie arceus that was released? Also maybe a Fire-Rock Legend. Or Fighting-Dark! But the rock legends would have special moves as the Fighting-Dark would have the slight advantage. Perhaps Lighting Rain for one, and Asteroid Fall for the other? I would love this! Listen to me geniuses of the Pokemon world! People want a good rock type Legend!

Actually, now that I think about it if all else fails they'll probably just make redundant types. Think about it: You can nitpick the exact details of what Moltres and Entei command, but from a broader spectrum they're both basically the element of fire.

But that's just one thing about it. It really had no story behind it. Same with Moltres. And from what you said, you could say Cresselia, Azelf, Uxie and Mespirit are all the same because they are Psychic and levitate. |

Keep in mind that over 500 Pokemon were made for RBGY, and obviously a good amount of them were scrapped to pave way for 151. They keep making mounds upon mounds of Pokemon for each new gen, and in the end 100-200 of them make it.

Late to the topic and most likely already said, but I find the theme in Pokémon Black and White to be hinting at the idea of an almost ying-yang scenario, which isn't far fetched considering the region this game hails from. Therfore Gamefreak is stepping away from the 'hierarchy' of legendaries, and focusing more into the depth of balance.
Personally, I think they have already introduced the legendary (Zoroark), or whatever pokémon Black version focuses on. Now most people now would say 'but it evolves'. However, my interpretation is that evolution doesn't mean it cannot be a legendary. Originally, we thought legendaries could not breed, but we have seen otherwise with Rotom and Manaphy (though Phione isn't Manaphy, it's still offspring). |

Making a Pokemon stronger than Arceus would be ridiculous. Arceus is so over-powered it's not even funny. He has a base state of 720 while the Pokemon underneath him has 680. That's a pretty big gap. They should fill the gap and just keep Arceus as is.

Adding another 720 base stat would be weird, and on par with God it would also feel really awkward. Best they don't and just add more 680s. I'm personally hoping for more classical physicals like rock, fighting, poison and bug. We don't have any bugs in legends. Maybe among the event pokemon at least?

Or, we could be seeing the rise of a Pokemon 'triforce' per-se. Arceus created the worlds, Mew 'created' the Pokemon, and maybe the next gen we will see the emergence of something that has 'created' the willpower or something like that. I kid, I kid, or do I... ... ...
Whatever, I'm out. -Pichu |
