Dawn's New Pokemon

[Dragon Master]

I don't know if anyone has seen it but Dawn has got a new addition to her team, the little Fire Pokemon and Johto starter, Cyndaquil.

You guys think that was a good choice as Dawn's Fire type?

 

[Cybersai]

Yes and no. Yes because Sinnoh has virtually no fire types.

No because its gotten somewhat annoying to see the writers give old starters to the new female characters.

I can't even tell the difference between Ash and Dawn's Cyndaquil personality wise, they're practically the same.

 

[Piplup]

No because

Because you're a crazy hater

its gotten somewhat annoying to see the writers give old starters to the new female characters.

What the Johto is "annoying" in that? not to mention you talk as if that's the 32532523 time it happens... it only happened before with May... Dawn is the second to do this

I can't even tell the difference between Ash and Dawn's Cyndaquil personality wise, they're practically the same.

It's really sad if you're serious
They're VERY different
Ash's Cyndaquil was cute and nice and it also had its fire problems
Dawn's Cyndaquil is rude and not friendly at all and has no problem to battle even right after it hatched... it also likes to burn Dawn's hair

 

[Cybersai]

Its the third time they've done it, if you count by starter.

The writers did a better job differentiating the personality of May's Kanto starters than Dawn's Cynda compared to Ash's.

 

[Piplup]

Not really, Ash and Dawn's Cynda are very different as I explained
You just insist to continue with your crazy hate...

 

[Cybersai]

Its pretty similar overall, the only difference is this Cynda doesn't have trouble getting its flames lit. Ash's Cynda did act rather sleepy/cute as well.

If Ash and Dawn ever put their two Cyndaquil side by side, they'd look exactly the same. May's Bulbasaur was female and had a heart, and the Squirtle was tiny. The Cyndaquil has no distinguishing features as of yet anyway.

 

[LightningKimba]

The Cyndaquil has no distinguishing features as of yet anyway.

... Other than the fact that it acts like a child, while Ash's Cyndaquil was more or less timid?

 

[Piplup]

Its pretty similar overall, the only difference is this Cynda doesn't have trouble getting its flames lit.

It's not, their personalities are completely different

Ash's Cynda did act rather sleepy/cute as well.

This is only right for Ash's Cynda
Dawn's Cynda is rude, not friendly, likes to burn Dawn's hair
That's nothing like Ash's

If Ash and Dawn ever put their two Cyndaquil side by side, they'd look exactly the same.

They're the same kind of Pokémon
They aren't really supposed to look different

May's Bulbasaur was female and had a heart, and the Squirtle was tiny. The Cyndaquil has no distinguishing features as of yet anyway.

If they'll be shown together I guess maybe they'll make Ash's bigger
It doesn't really matters and you're exaggerating like you always do
Just calm down and enjoy the show

 

[Cybersai]

This is only right for Ash's Cynda
Dawn's Cynda is rude, not friendly,

That's only toward Piplup, who was acting like a jerk toward it. Cyndaquil doesn't seem like it acts rude to any of Ash/Dawn's other Pokemon.

If they'll be shown together I guess maybe they'll make Ash's bigger

I kinda like Dawn's Cynda so far, but I knew with a Pokemon that has "slits" for eyes, they couldn't differentiate its personality as much.

Look at Kazu's Totodile, now that Pokemon is completely different than Ash's. A Totodile that isn't happy and doesn't dance? Now that's a different personality.

 

[Piplup]

That's only toward Piplup,

That's the only Poké it really got to interact with so far
Burning Dawn's hair might also be a sign of its rudeness - Ash's Cynda would never do something like that to Ash

who was acting like a jerk toward it.

That's not right at all
Pip tried (and MORE THAN ONCE) to be nice and become friends with it but the Cynda acted REALLY rude and ugly to poor Pip
It's only THEN that Pip began to "hate" it... but it was clearly Cynda to blame here as it started this whole thing when it could simply be nice instead
(not like I complain or something, I like the fact Dawn's Cynda acts this way and it's more interesting than the usual YAY HAPPY WE'RE FRIENDS)

Cyndaquil doesn't seem like it acts rude to any of Ash/Dawn's other Pokemon.

As I said it didn't reall interact with any of them yet but Pip alone is enough proof to its rudeness

I kinda like Dawn's Cynda so far, but I knew with a Pokemon that has "slits" for eyes, they couldn't differentiate its personality as much.

But they did, you just don't want to admit this

Look at Kazu's Totodile, now that Pokemon is completely different than Ash's. A Totodile that isn't happy and doesn't dance? Now that's a different personality.

It wasn't happy? maybe only in that scene where it didn't like the food Kazu gave it
Other than that I don't remember that it was especially sad/not happy

 

[Cybersai]

The only Pokemon Cynda has a problem with was Piplup, but Piplup got really angry with it in the episode. If in future eps Cynda is shown to have no problem with the others, then its only with Piplup.

 

[Piplup]

That doesn't change the fact Cynda has absolutely no reason to act this way to a poor Poké who only tried to be nice and friendly with it
It says something about this Cynda' personality and you can't deny this

 

[Poke_Gal]

Is there a debate about a Pokemon who hasn't even been in two full episodes yet?

Personality doesn't show right away, so it it really fair to say this and that?

 

[Piplup]

What's the problem? I don't complain about Cynda, I like the fact it's personality is like that
And these two eps are enough to know this is part of Cynda's personality
Sure we might find out more about it in the future but it IS its personality

Try to rewatch the beginning of that ep again, Piplup tried to be nice but went the wrong way about it. You could tell Cynda was ticked off at Piplup, not because it likes to fight or be rude, etc.

 

[Piplup]

Cynda was ticked off at Piplup

But WHY?!
Pip only tried to be nice...

 

[pokemon_master2]

But WHY?!
Pip only tried to be nice...

Nice? and i thought that it was mean..

 

[Aladar]

I'm glad I guessed right wchich starter Dawn will receive... and I hope this means that Ash will use Totodile again...and evolve it...

In short:

I told 'ya so!

Although that would be awesome, i don't think Ash will get back his Totodile and evolve it although i would love to see a Feraligatr on Ash's Team, it aint going to happen. He has got Buizel.

 

[Cybersai]

I wonder if Dawn's Cyndaquil will be used at the Grand Festival at all. It has no contest experience, but if its excluded, it'd be over 50+ eps until it would be used in whatever contest comes next.
