Judging by the amount of Pokemon threads that have popped up around here lately, there's no secret that the FAN has it's own group of Pokemaniacs. So to reduce the multiple threads, and for anyone who wants to share news, thoughts, ideas, memories, or just shoot the shit, this thread is for you. Post whatever you want, as long as it's Pokemon (and it's within forum rules, of course).

I'm a big 1st generation fan. I also have a bunch of pokemon cards was a big trader. My sister got a Charizard from a random pack of cards.

Speaking of Charizard, I still don't get why he was never part Dragon. I'm guessing they wanted Dragonite to be the sole Dragon in Generation I to make him special. And yeah, Charizard grows wings, so I can see where the Flying type addition comes from, but still. Charizard looks and acts more like a dragon than Dragonite!

It's probably because in G1, making Charizard or Gyarados a Dragon type - especially Gyarados, as he'd have essentially had no weaknesses - would have been insanely broken.

Yeah, they probably wanted to keep Dragonite as the sole Dragon in Gen I.
That, and it would require a Pokemon to have three types, and they probably want to keep that to two.

The way I see it, if he had been Fire/Dragon, Charizard would've still been weak to ice (fire didn't resist ice at the time), rock, and ground, and since the only Dragon type move in Gen 1 did set damage, he wouldn't have had perfect STAB (yet).
So he would've been manageable then, but in the later gens he would have been godlike.

I'd help, but my Wi-Fi connection is password-protected and so HeartGold and SoulSilver can't connect to it. If it were Black or White I could lend a hand.

I wish I was still as into Pokemon as I used to be, but my general attention span for it faded out around Gen III, and my all time favorite pokemon will always be Gen I's Primeape. RAGE, MOTHERf***ER!

Almost everyone that I know loves Primeape, yet, I don't see the appeal. Never did.

Thing about Mankey and Primeape, I think they're awesome and they're solid Pokemon but I don't think I've actually used one in years.
