i think it would be kinda cool if zekrom is dragon/electric.it would charge his "night generator" thing.Water Pokémon Master said:Discuss!
night_zekrom said:I don't think nintendo will do ANOTHER weather generation... after they came out with ruby saphire and emerald, which included hail, castform, groudon, kyogre and rayquayza...
swimfastray said:Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza weren't actually weather related.
swimfastray said:I've been doing some research on dragons and I found out that dragons in Oriental myth all have powers over water and weather, being able to cause massive waves or turn into water spouts and tornadoes. Also, there are four Dragon Kings in Chinese mythology that inhabit and protect the four seas that surround China in the four cardinal directions. With this, I have concieved that there may be FOUR legendary dragon pokemon!!! One that represents each cardinal direction (North, South, East, West). Theres no telling, but maybe the enhanced re-release for the fifth generation may include two games instead of just one! Wouldn't that be something?
That said, I think I have a good guess as to the types of at least Zekrom and Reshiram. Shokotan says Zekrom is Electric, so we'll go with that for now. Now Reshiram, I believe, appears to embody fluffy cirrus clouds, and it also has blue eyes. Therefore, Reshiram could be attributed to a clear sunny day, making it Normal type or Fire type, or Reshiram could be attributed to snowfall and blizzards and be Ice type! The other two dragons could be Water type, symbolizing rain, and one of the types Reshiram is not.
Then you have:
West Zekrom (Drg/Ele) = Thunderstorms
East Reshiram (Drg/Nrm) = Clear Skies
North ___rom/ram (Drg/Ice) = Snow, Blizzards
South ___rom/ram (Drg/Wtr) = Rain, Rainstorms
Whattaya say??
Redneck said:I beg your pardon? Did you forget the whole ordeal with torrential rains and unending drought?
And Rayquaza's ability to suppress any and all weather conditions?
Yes, they were the respective domains of land/sea/sky, but regardless, like previously mentioned, there was a lot of emphasis on weather, with the introduction of the weather institute, the attack Weather Ball, Castform, amongst other things.
Again, speculation is fun, but we need to wait it out until things are officially unveiled instead of creating our own ideas and attacking others' thoughts on what the generation "should" or will be.
Setosama said:I'm gonna go on a limb here as well and predict that Reshiram is going to represent Heaven while Zekrom represents heck.
Reshiram has a variety of Angelic Qualities about it, much like how Zekrom seems somewhat demonic. I mean, they've done Land, Sea, and Sky... They've done Time, Space, and Different Dimensions... Heaven and heck are the only way to go in my opinion. Third member (if there is INDEED another Dragon Trio) would probably present "Purgatory". (Mascot for Grey Version! lol)
Light Type would be AWESOME!!! Not quiet sure how it would WORK though... Super Effective against Dark and Ghost? Maybe immune to Dark and resistant to Fire and Electric (because they PROVIDE light)... Possibly also not very effective against Grass (by reason of absorbs light for photosynthesis)... Neutral to everything else... Could be VERY interesting.
thats exactly what i thought!El Pokémaster said:But shouldn't we remember that Zekrom is mascot for White, and vice versa? Maybe it's made that way to confuse us and Reshiram is the "evil" one.
This could be possible but if the red eyes represents fire and the blue represent electricity AND zekrom is supposed to be the electric type then it doesn't add up. If zekrom i the possible dragon/electric type and has the red eyes then which is he...fire or electric. Do you see what i meanaaroncsmall2 said:According to Serebii the host of Pokemon Sunday said she loves electric types and with that would love to voice Zekrom. This post was then removed from her blog minutes afterward.
(several paraghraphs later)
If you are thinking that their colors do not match their potential typing, Reshiram has red highlights and Zekrom has blue highlights. I also noticed Zekrom has red and yellow eyes (fire) while Reshiram has blue eyes (electricity), to balance out the colors for the whole yin-yang thing they've got going on.

An underworld does not also require a 'heaven' to exist.The Flaming Ho-oh said:Well, we already know there is a pokemon underworld (remember that episode with the girl in DPP when she tried to lure Ash to the underworld and Dusknoir saved them) So It would make sense for a heaven to exist.
swimfastray said:Absolutely not Twilight. No one wants to associate Pokemon with stupid vampires. I think if the legendaries were about the time of day they easily could have named the games Pokemon Dawn and Dusk, therefore I find it unlikely that the games are associated with time of day.
I stick wholeheartedly to the weather idea, where Zekrom creates storms and Reshiram clears the sky.
x598 deserves a round of applause for actually reading up and knowing what he is talking about!
I had a feeling that she didn't actually say it. To me this is simply taking words out of context and making your own conclusion. She doesn't actually say Zekrom is electric type. Also I think it could of been mistranslated. People said it was taken down minutes after it was put up, so the people who saw it, only saw it for a couple of seconds. Maybe they saw the words "electric" and "Zekrom" and thought Zekrom is an electric type. There is just too many "ifs" to saying that this is true, but we'll find out soon enough.aaroncsmall2 said:According to Serebii the host of Pokemon Sunday said she loves electric types and with that would love to voice Zekrom.

Example: Hades.
The Flaming Ho-oh said:...in a part of hades there is a place for the heroes and do-gooders where they lead happy (dead) lives partying and having a good time.
But, unlike Heaven/H*ll, there is no warring between the different parts. They are all simply destinations for the dead. That's it.The Flaming Ho-oh said:Yes, but in a part of hades there is a place for the heroes and do-gooders where they lead happy (dead) lives partying and having a good time.
Olympus is the abode of the gods, not an afterlife. The dead do not go to Olympus, and Olympus does not war against Hades.swimfastray said:Olympus! Just wanted to throw that in there. . .
