Konnor97 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) Oh my, Hoopa and Volcanion have a sickening yellow shiny; Diancie's looks really good though. And Hoopa seems to be in some sort of inanimate pose, so maybe it has a neutral and battle form like Xerneas?

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I use 4 Legendary on my team. Kyurem B, Landorus-I, Latios, and Terrakion Yet for some reason they tend to become death fodder except for Kyu-B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruity Insanity Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I only used Latios and Latias regularly. I have a thing against using Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, etc. on Showdown. Because normally, in-game, I wouldn't be able to use them online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheon Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 The only legendaries I've used have been Heatran, Terrakion, and Victini. I personally steer clear of Ubers since I'm not a fan of that metagame. I try to stay away from legendaries in general, but sometimes I need that specific moveset or typing, or something that's good at scarfing.

Anacybele Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Keldeo and Reshiram are the only legendaries I've actually used as team members. Xerneas doesn't count because it was only for one battle. The other two I used for multiple battles and I still have Keldeo in my party to use every now and then. I just love him too much. :3 On another note, I've gotten 300 different Pokemon now! Though it's partly due to all the ones I transferred using the bank. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interest Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Speaking of legendaries, I've been trying to raise my Shaymin and Manaphy. So much speeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Lightning Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I never bothered using legendaries outside of occasional in-game teams, but now that I'm playing competitively in OU, I have seen that a lot of them are super useful. I probably won't use more than one or two in a team, but so far they seem to be meshing very well in my mono-region teams; I've picked one legendary for each team from its respective region, and its nice to have that legendary representative that fits in with the rest of the team with some role. Only exception is my Kalos team, since Xerneas and Yveltal are Ubers and I'd rather not use Zygarde, but hopefully they'll release more legendaries soon that I can play around with... I think my overall favorite legendaries are the Lati twins, with Lugia a close second (second movie bias ftw XD). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuxSpes Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I've never really used legendaries in competitive battling. I used some uber teams in PBR against the AI opponents, but never in PvP. Now that pokebank is out and that I'm getting more familiar with showdown, I may try using non-ubers legendaries more often. It's just a shame than most of my favorite legendaries are banned(like the creation trio, Ho-oh and Lugia). (second movie bias ftw XD). I was so hyped about that movie when it came out(and the main theme/lugia's song/end credits stuck in my head for a long while) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djing Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Heatran and Landorus (thank you Alfred Kamon) are my two token legendaries. I actually really like the Kami trio now. They all have their own unique animations to differentiate themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Lightning Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I was so hyped about that movie when it came out(and the main theme/lugia's song/end credits stuck in my head for a long while) "Disturb not the harmony of Fire, Ice, and Lightning, lest these Titans wreak destruction upon the world in which they clash. Though the Water's Great Guardian shall arise to quell the fighting, alone its song will fail, and thus the earth shall turn to ash. O Chosen One...into thine hands bring together all three. Their treasures combined tame the Beast of the Sea. From the trio of islands ancient spheres shall you take. For between Life and Death, all the difference you make. Climb to the shrine to right what is wrong, and the world will be healed by the Guardian's song." ...I can't believe I still remember all of that, but yeah, that was and still is my favorite pokemon movie growing up. I really miss it a lot. I'm still probably not going to use it, but is Zygarde useful in the metagame for anything atm? I feel like if anything needs a form change, it's this thing...

Icon of Sin Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) It's a decent phazer with Coil and Dragon Tail I guess. There's also Dragon Dance and Extremespeed if you're into that. Togekiss shits on it pretty badly unless it has a Rock move. Edited February 11, 2014 by Woodshooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) Oh, I loved Pokemon the Movie 2000: The Power of One as well! But because Keldeo's movie is part of what made me love him, it's my all time favorite movie in the series. lol But The Power of One is definitely second, along with Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. ^^ The Rise of Darkrai is also really awesome, Darkrai's depth in it was just amazing. How it befriended Alice's grandmother and such. Just damn. Also, Tonio x Alice ftw. ^^ I prefer Ho-Oh over Lugia by a long shot though. I just really love the pretty rainbow fire bird and I find Lugia's design to be rather boring. I'm disappointed Ho-Oh never got a movie or even much of a role in the anime at all. :( But I do love that song Lugia has in The Power of One! It's beautiful! But I don't know if I like it more than Oracion, the melody used in The Rise of Darkrai that had a similar purpose. Both are amazing!

Breezy Kanzaki Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Pokemon 2000 was amazing on topic of movies. Though 4ever will always be ky favorite. Quint, do polls on favorite Pokemon movies XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Pokemon movies aren't exactly related to X and Y lol. Not yet anyway. :P But I'll be more than happy to make a thread for them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't remember thoughBut Lugia's just the best of them, I wanted to cry when I saw the birds being owned, specially Articuno ;~; Maybe when Cocoon of whatever gets out I dunno. edit Ana ruined it amirite Edited February 11, 2014 by Quintessence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG you quoted that from memory? XD I think Zygarde is still used in comp from time to time as a bulkier, less offense oriented version of Garchomp. But if definitely needs a second form/whatever to be up to par with Xerneas and Yveltal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quint, do polls on favorite Pokemon movies XD I would strongly agree that these two were awesome, though for me it's reversed. I liked 2000 more. However, 4 was very close because the ending was stupidly clever. Another one I would also like to add is Heroes...well sort of...

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) Zygarde problem is the fact that while there is no pokemon that completely outclass it in 1 - 1 "same with worse stats" kind, it has too many competitor who happen to be OU's best pokemon while doing an excellent job on that front Dragonite, Garchomp, and Landorus T beats it in its own game. The only niche it really have is the coil set that kills stall with hazzard on the field Its kinda like Donphan if Donphan did not suck Edited February 11, 2014 by JSND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interest Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 So apparently those leaked legendaries aren't fake after all. Well...one of them anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ema Skye Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Stealth Rock resistance is a pretty viable niche for it too, especially when compared to Dragonite. Coil set is still better though. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Lightning Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Yay! Its real! I hope more come out soon, we really need more Kalos Legends when you compare them to other regions (though I suppose Kalos is just smaller overall when it comes to new pokemon). I'm just baffled that there has been no in-game mention of them at all; at least in other regions, there have been mentions of event pokemon by npcs even when you don't have them.

Not at all imo, we'll get 6 (Gen I had 5) after all. In addition Sinnoh and Unova just had too many legendaries (Hoenn to a lesser extent). 3-5 is a fine number.

Well, if we don't get anymore Legendaries after this, I'd like them to keep releasing new megas at least; I can think of so many pokemon that could use one (read: all of them that don't have one yet).
