For a long time one of my favorite things about the older Pokémon titles - "older" meaning "Generations I and II, and also III, sort of" - has been their old-school charm. The limited graphics and music, while technically inferior to later titles, have both a quaint, nostalgic quality to them...

Why these two? Because they're both (arguably) based on performers. Conkeldurr's (possibly) your archetypical carnie strong-man; Mr. Mime's your archetypical, uh, mime...
Some of the coolest Pokémon (like Salamence, Lucario, or some other Pokémon that people find cool) are among the best. But this isn't always the case; oftentimes a Pokémon with an interesting origin or a good design will have poor stats, poor stat distribution, or a limited movepool, thus...
Posting Etiquette
A good forum is nothing without good posters, and good posters, as you might expect, make good posts. But how does one go about making good posts? There’s no definitive answer to that question, but there are ways of making your posts better.
I) Check your Spelling and...
Of all the moves introduced in Gen IV, Stealth Rock arguably had the largest impact. Its introduction changed the way Pokémon was played in many ways; it's now nearly impossible to find a competitive player who doesn't use it, and previously useful Pokémon like Ho-Oh and Charizard were taken...
Is that Final Fantasy VII game any good? I didn't think it would be very good, because it looks really different from the older Final Fantasy games, but a lot of my friends have it and they say it's really fun. Who here played it?
Why these two? Well, for starters, they're both Flying types that become available fairly early in the games (depending on which game you're playing). They were both released in Generations that came after their preevolutions. And they both redeemed fairly terrible evolution families when it...
There's a certain Social group I would like to join. However, the "Join Group" button is absent from its page, and I cannot find any other method of joining. Is this an error? Does this mean no one else can join the group? Do I need to contact the person maintaining the group in order to join?

Why these two? Because they're arguably the two Pokémon with the most controversy attached. One could be a racist stereotype; the other gave kids seizures. Which one's better design wise? Which one has the more useful family? Which one is more "problematic", so to speak? Does Jynx need an...
We've already seen Ash and Red, but how does Ash pair up against Red's less-celebrated successor?
I'm personally gonna have to go with Ethan on this one. I really don't care about him that much, but Ash is still pretty damn derpy.
Title says it all. Who do you think the dumbest NPC is in the series? My vote goes to the hiker who insists on battling you in the rain when 2/3 of his team is Rock/Ground.
Everyone knows about the infamous shift from Gen II to Gen III, which voided virtually everything in the first two Generations. How did this affect you?
So...
Let's pretend for a minute that a Pokémon MMO was to be made. A real one, developed by a real company and published by Nintendo. What I'd like to know is what people would like to see from this hypothetical game. Should it take place in a preexisting region or in a new one? What kind of...
It seems like nobody remembers the Wireless Adapter that came with every copy of FRLG. Which leads me to suspect that it ranks as one of the most unused/unloved peripherals ever. Does anyone else share this opinion, or am I jumping to conclusions here?
