This.

Maybe the only reason I like them so much is because they were so shit before.

Other than that, Giratina. And I like all the Deoxys formes.

samefag: the pokemon is awfull. Gamefreak should erase them from the main games by making them only catchable as therian form from now on, with the reveal glass being a findable key item thats really hard to find

I think I like pretty much every Pokemon that changes formes so far. My favorite, however, has always been Deoxys, the original forme changer.

Normal Deoxys has always been a favorite of mine. In terms of alternate formes though, Defense forme was always cool, in my opinion.

My alternate forme so far. I think Platinum's how story and the distortion world help me like it even more.

I'm personally not that keen on the Kami trio alternate forms. The samefag forms were terrible and, even though they are an improvement, the Therian forms aren't much better. Although my opinion may be warped since I'm tired of seeing every OU team on Pokemon Showdown with at least one Kami Trio or Pony legendary.

There was a short mention that that the Therian forms are their true forms the ones depicted in legends. Incarnate forms are simply what humans perceive them as, further implied by the item used to get the Therian's.

Other than that the Kami trio are truly the utter laziest legendaries Gamefreak have ever inserted into the series for the utter lack of background or explanation for their presences. Hell Landorus is the only celebrated one the other two may as well not exist.

I was indifferent to Deoxys until this form came out. It's absolutely beautiful; let me tell you why.

Essentially Deoxys looks like a cross between a cheesy classical alien (helmet, green shit, etc). His other forms are cool, too, but they're literally JUST GETS SPIKIER and JUST GETS FATTER. With the Speed form you can see how he has not only shed most of his armour, he's also dropped two of his four arms, and the remaining two still display his motif. It reminds me of Orbital Frames, which by their very nature are fast as fuck.

Shame it's the worst competitively.

Anyway, why is it that GF can't decide if they're called "forms" or "formes"?

Is it just me or are the 5th gen sprites for Deoxys extremely lazy. Really a shame to see them all just standing there in basically the same pose, and normal forme Deoxys just looking even more like a less-sharp Deoxys-A.

If this guy actually changes Mewtwo's stats and performs differently than regular Mewtwo does then it could end up being my favorite forme.

If it's just a sprite swap like Keldeo-R it can fuck right off and die.

Most of the pre-gen V sprites are literally just Platinum's sprites but animated. Which is a real shame because the HGSS team massively improved on a lot of them and they never got used.

HGSS only improved on the Johtodex pokemon sprites.

Everything else was stuck with their old sprites. BTW, I'm glad they ditched sprites. It's obvious they were getting to the point where regular updates to those sprites was impossible.

Especially now that they were animated. There are pokemon who are still stuck with their DPPt sprites.

There's a difference between Form and Forme.
The former is just aesthetic. The latter actually rearranges stats.

Deoxys has always been my favorite since I saw him at the end of the FR/LG strategy guide. I think it's the reason I started watching NGE, because I looked him up online and a few times people said NGE was his inspiration.

Actually Tornadus and Thundurus also have their own lore

Tornadus and Thundurus zapped away old bushes that could cause Fires, and brought rain clouds to feed the soil and the plants. Landorus's tail could revive any dead soil and also acted as their master

Tornadus and Thundurus however decided to go rogue (As show by their Ability Prankster) and start spreading chaos all over Unova.

Landorus banished them and got worshipped by people as result

Well, Deoxys's defense form looks a little like Zeruel and it's color scheme kind of borrows from Sahaquiel.
If you have a better idea where it's inspiration came from tell me.
