Insert satire about earlier thread events here. Cue people getting offended over anything.

Ice-type Hyper Beam/Giga Impact anyone?
Ew, no. Those moves are still total shit because you still have to recharge the next turn.

Fairy/Ghost is only resisted by Litleo (as far as we know).
Dark resists Ghost so Houndoom, Bisharp, and Drapion resist it, too.

Rock/ Dragon: it looks alright, but why can that be a dragon but not charizard
Because gamefreak logic
No, this time Game Freak actually used logic. In gen 1 there were no damage-dealing Dragon moves. making it Fire/Dragon makes it unfairly stronger than the other starters and even loses its Water weakness. There also were no abilities so no Levitate and Game Freak wanted Charizard to use its wings.

Oh boy... did this guy really need one? I know with Fairy-types and all Dragon-types are taking a hit this generation, but still... I could never see Garchomp loosing that much competitive ground. This just makes him even more a monster!
Why not? They already game Lucario and Blaziken Megas and Megaken even gets Speed Boost.

The Ice-type Normalize ruins it for me, though. Look were Delcatty got.
To be fair the brontosaurus's ability only changes Normal moves to Ice moves, not to mention how horrid Delcatty's stats are.
I honestly could not give two shits about Fennekin's evo being bipedal, but I still don't like the design. It's pretty awkward looking. The combination of the skinny legs, shoulder pads, elongated nose, flared fur skirt, and thicker thighs isn't nearly as elegant as I expected Fennekin to become and is all around awkward. The witch concept is cool, though and the broom tail is neat. I hope its final stage is some kind of sorcerer/wizard for males and some elegant witch/sorceress for females. Chespin's evo is goofy, but so was Chespin. It's alright, but I don't like the long nose and it kind of looks like Chespin devolved. I still have hopes that it will have some badass armadillo knight evo. Middle stages are usually the worst in the line (except Quilava) and I might like them more once I see Chespin and Fennekin's evos in gameplay. Froakie's evo is pimping and I can totally see it becoming some sort of assassin.
I really like Froakie's evo, the T-rex, and the new mega Mewtwo (even the feet). I think Megachomp's head and axe hands are cooler than regular Garchomp, but the extra spikes are unnecessary. The poodle is alright and its ability certainly gives it potential to kick ass and take names.
Espurr/Meowstic (I refuse to call it Meowstick. I'm pretty sure the name is a pun on meow and mystic and the leaker just did't notice this) and the brontosaurus don't really look like Pokemon to me. The brontosaurus's eyes are weird and the plainness of its body looks almost like a fakemon to me. I would call the cats fakemon, too but they really look like they belong in some non-Pokemon anime or cartoon. They definitely remind me of something, but I don't know what.
