Not with Flareon. He'll get jack as usual. It's the unwritten law of Pokemon. One of them that is. The other one is that Dragons will still be very very good.

Pokemon for iOS/Android announced. Nintendo shares triple overnight.
Calling it.

Why the fuck is charizard not fire/dragon. I never got that
IntelliHeath
As in "Heathcliff"
Sadly thing, I did thought of it too.
If Digital rumor is true, then I would assume that digital would be their "second evolution." However, it's impossible tho.

He'd be too good. We can't have a starter be that good.

Hated that idea, I want a non type true evolution for eevee, digital which is dumb btw, would not be that.
Because he wouldn't be weak to water anymore and that would ruin the starters match up for people ingame.
He's not a dragon. And it would be too powerfull for a starter. I dont think any starter is Dragon.
That's an awesome Mewtwo! (never liked the original).Are there more Pokemon redesigned to look like they are from different gens? I only know of this:
SHUT YOUR TRAP
Luigi is a loveable relatable character while Mario is an absolute heroic archtype with no personality.

Admittedly it took Blaziken a couple of generations to reach that point and it went well beyond that point.

He sure has all the characteristics of a dragon though.

Along with the why isn't Charizard part Dragon...why does a Pokemon known for eating dreams...not learn such a move naturally?

What about Empoleon
edit: wellllll I guess it's kind of balanced by not being resistant to fire

Dang, I might have to pick up B/W2. I was planning on skipping them, but I'm really feelin' the Pokehype right now.

Serperior should be a dragon type as well if CHarizard was one.
Yep. Been thinking about picking up the games again. FUUU!

Let me introduce you to our friend Garchomp. And Lucario.

Torterra is half ground as well so he can still hit it with a SE move.

Adult protagonists please. (Or at least the choice.)
I just feel like I'm on board of a ship heading for a massive storm and the captain telling us it's gonna be awesome.
I want to believe my captain, but I'm afraid and bracing myself for the impact in case he's wrong.
Woah, I dont remember typing that he's not a dragon. Weird. But yeah, he would simply be too powerful. Except if we change the whole weakness triangle for something else. Psychic Ghost and something could be cool.
Yeah true

Are you talking about Munna? They learn Dream Eater naturally. Or are you talking about Gengar? They learn Dream Eater naturally as well...

I don't care if they're kids/teens again, but I'd love for them to be customizable. Skin tone, hair style, facial features, clothes.

Generation 1 Drowzee and Hypno.
It will never happen. Customization is far more likely (especially if we're going full 3D).
IF 3d models this be, easy it should
Pokémon X Animal Crossing gooooo.
Metroid model. Start with a full team of level 60s, as a rising star challenging for the championship, only to have them stripped from you for some reason (I vote PEDs), and are forced to start again from the ground up.
This seems so logical. Hopefully 3D models and customization go hand in hand.
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Even with Dragon type when Charizard still has shitty moves and stats it'll be crap.
Compare Speed Boost Blaziken or vanilla or Iron Fist Infernape
Hypno eat dreams? What. He's known to put people to sleep, not really to eat dreams.
Boss Doggie

TWO!
It also eat dreams. Unlike Musharna though it doesn't produce smoke on the dreams it has eaten.

Should be like you just have a single level 90 and then suddenly your Pokemon falls terminally ill or something and you have to start over.
The moral is have a well-rounded team when you're playing.
Admittedly it took Blaziken a couple of generations to reach that point and it went well beyond that point.
Blaziken really got brutal in Gen V. High Jump Kick was boosted to 130 power and it gained the move then it picked up Speed Boost as an ability. It's easily the scariest starter of all time now. Don't mess with the Fire Chicken.

Damn it Nintendo, you're making me tired:

Less Hypno and more Drowzee. Most of his Pokedex entries mention eating dreams and yet he can't learn it naturally.
And Charizard may have not so great stats but like most dragons, his would get jacked up considerably so he wouldn't be a shame to the Dragon line.

RE: Older protags...
Simple, have two sets of siblings, (two males, one old, one young, same for the girls, in any combination) then give the player a choice of the four characters. One of the unselected becomes your rival, one your "Bianca" and one a mystery role in the story. And the four different routes would add more replay value to the single player campaign.

I won't believe they're using another triangle for the starters until I see it. That rumor pops up for every Pokemon generation.

I'd like to see a game where you can play as the bad guy. You know, from Team Rocket's perspective. Maybe you could try and infiltrate their lair and become one of them to learn their ways...
Maybe instead of being a random 10-year old boy, you could be part of a Pokemon espionage mission.
They'd lump you in as a new grunt, and you'd have to train your way up and gain badges to "prove your worth."
Ehh, it's a thought. Never going to happen, but I can dream.
