I still think that's just an alternate form rather than a evolution though. Looks more like a Type: Null unmasked.

That's been a theory since Type: Null was released. Well, more like they tried to replicate Arceus rather than clone itSinnoh Confirmed. CoroCoro also revealed that it is an evolution that occurs when Type: Null trusts you enough that it breaks the restraints.

As for the rest of the reveal, I'm a bit disappointed in Jangmo-o's evos. With the emphasis on it's scaled, I figured it was going to be Dragon/Steel. Oh well, Moonblast away...

I wouldn't consider Drampa major. After all, Gen V had Druddigon

Serena's going to Hoenn while Ash is (obviously) going to Alola.


I feel sorry for Greninja, such a great Pokémon is gonna be stuck in Pallet Town for the rest of it's life.

Which is disappointing since Ash-Greninja is going to be IN the games.

who knows could be another useless Druddigon or not. I really think they're rubbing fairy typing in our face by releasing a 4x fairy weakness main dragon. Honestly it could get stuck in a near bottom tier regardless of stats.

If I want a Steel Dragon, I guess I'll stick with Dialga, then.

Also, I must be the only one who doesn't care about Amourshipping and Ash-Greninja. It's probably because I don't watch the anime. I mean, it's a kids show, and Ash-Greninja was overrated.

I don't think the spoiler is necessary here. This is a discussion, thread, after all. If you don't want anything to get spoiled, don't go to a discussion thread.

Probably not. Look at hydreigon. It's UU with a niche in OU. Dragon Fighting is a cool and unique typing, personally one I'm excited for.

Hydreigon is just that good with levitate and great coverage and special movepool. I suppose you are right but i'm going in with low expectations so that mostly nice things happen.

I remember using Hydreigon in B2 and it kicking some major butt at the E4. For Jararanga, I hope it at least learns some good steel moves like iron head, iron tail, and bullet punch.

I grew up with the first setting, Johto. Even a transition to the second setting was bewildering. What on earth is a bidoof.
Okay so apparently these days it's hot and happening to show your gender.
I am MALE. WTF is cis? I am MALE. I like to belch and laugh at fart jokes.

Oh, by the way: gender and sex are the same thing. They are part of a binary system.
Transgenderism is not supported by scientific evidence.

The greatest evils of our day: islamism, liberalism, George Soros

How can you accuse me of evil? Though these deeds be unsavory, no one will argue: good shall follow from them.


The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing
