I do think it would be nice to have at least one girl warrior, sine women are now able to become troops.
now seriously what the fuck
since when are there women pokémon? okay, i know there are male/female pokémon but women
humanising pokémon to a further extent? i think that's going against pokémon's original design template. oh i forgot machop/machoke/machamp, jinx and other humanoid pokémon
the warriors thing bothers me. pokémon, in the context of the games, are warriors, or at least they are when they serve their trainers. so to me, creating "warrior" pokémon is not a good idea. maybe pokémon who have specifically been bred for combat could work.
warrior is quite vague when put into the context of paper scissors stone, since it doesn't evoke the game as much as if you were to use fingers/hands. besides i think you're jumping from one thing to another too quickly, and that game does not make me think of war, even if it's a competition of some kind.
what's interesting is that the game is referred to as "bird stone water" in malaysia.
there's also a five weapon derivative including lizard (and spock).
also this, a species of lizard using a rock paper scissors pattern for mating.
i'm tempted to make three reptilian legendaries: one with an orange throat, one with a blue one, one with a yellow one- orange beats blue, blue beats yellow, and yellow beats orange = rock defeats scissors, scissors defeats paper, paper defeats rock.
might want to take that in count for creating the pokémon.
basically, what i'm reproaching to some of the members posting here is their lack of thought and research when it comes to creating new pokémon. so please do me a favour and do some work to back up what you're saying before pitching any suggestions. thank you.
