Favourite Pokemon

That's it That's the death of the meme You killed it are you happy I am.

 

Ok, was just thinking... What the fuck is with Farfetch'd..... He's literally just a duck that carries a leek around....
Who came up with this concept?

 

The Japanese

 

It comes from a proverb of sorts that basically means something like "Don't expect your dinner to come walking up to you carrying its own garnishes."

because that would be too farfetched to ever happen c:

 

Oh, that's pretty neat actually.

 

Short version from Bulbapedia:
Farfetch'd may be inspired by the Japanese saying 「鴨が葱を背負って来る」, literally translating to "a duck comes bearing green onions". As a saying, it means "something surprising but convenient". The phrase can be shortened simply to 「鴨葱」.

Long version from a biologist contributor to Bulbanews

Honestly, of all the stupid designs to come out of the games, especially from Gen 6, Farfetch'd isn't that bad. It's just kinda...bland.

 

I've had a real heck of a time trying to pick my favourite Eeveelution, I'm thinking it's Either Jolteon or Glaceon, though I had an Espeon on one team I just really loved beyond words so it's hard to say which actually means the most to me.

 

Yeahey I love jolteon I want to make a kigurumi of this eeveelution.

 

.... *quickly looks up kigurumi* Oooh, that would be so cute!

 

This is freakin' adorable.

 

I like all the Eeveelutions, but I think my favs are Espeon, Umbreon, and Leafeon (in that order)

 

I liked Umbreon until I tried to use one. Hoooooleeeeeee special defense batman. Cool for metagame stuff, not great when you just want to play the solo story -_-

 

Latios and Latias will always be my perfect little babies. <3;;

 

ORAS must have blown your mind eh? IT certainly did mine :3

 

Actually, if you can believe it, I've had Omega Ruby in my possession since it first came out, and I even had it pre-ordered... And yet I still have it completely unopened! First Persona Q got in the way, and then Fantasy Life, and now Monster Hunter 4U. I keep getting distracted by other games, and thinking "Gaah, stop releasing other things I want to play more, Nintendo...!"

Alas! It will be played, and played thoroughly, the moment I can. It's my intention to blind nuzlocke the whole thing, so I'm still trying to avoid any game spoilers. Still excited for it, though xD
