>>18564201 Cthulhu also has wings and long, clawed arms and legs, though. And I'm not sure if the entity is in the public domain, so Game Freak might have to be careful about using its likeness. There are several other races related to the Old Ones with more squid-like characteristics and ambiguous coloration. The header image of the Wikipedia page that other anon linked to shows a creature whose color scheme is very similar to Malamar's.
There's also those flashing lights on Malamar's body, which could easily have a powerful hypnotic effect if you're looking for other ways to justify Hypnosquid's psychedelic psyche suppression powers.

As I said before, because they put Unova on Netflix I'm watching it and I'm at like episode 29. So far it's actually pretty damn good. Even the filler is good (i.e. Litwick mansion) Team Rocket is actually competent and that makes them exciting to have on screen. My only complaint is that Ash sucks, but that's a given.
So when, why, and how does it all go to shit?
No one can give me answers. I'm going to watch it regardless.

>>18564387 I was going to answer your question before the last thread got deleted.
I personally
enjoyed it but I can easily see why it's so hated. If you made it until episode 29 you have a pretty good idea of what you're going to get, so you probably will not hate the rest of the series that much.
The big problem is that a lot of the potential it has never goes anywhere. The writers clearly wanted to reinvent things for BW but they went way too far and got in over their heads.
Team Rocket's a perfect example. They were so overkilled in DP that something had to change, so they decided to try using the reputation Team Rocket apparently had in Kanto before meeting Ash for the first time. Then they took the idea so far that they ended up turning Team Rocket into the exact opposite of what they were in DP, to the other extreme entirely. It's worth mentioning, though, that Episode N does actually do a decent mixture, where they're sort of like their DP selves in fillers but take Team Plasma seriously.
Ultimately what does in BW imo is that the whole series falls into the same problem Team Rocket had in DP: status quo overkill. Nothing feels that different at the end, nothing ever really changes.
I thought it had some good ideas though. With how XY is going, I want to see it take another go at things like Team Rocket being more threatening, which is something they've already done really, doing jobs for Giovanni, the Battle Clubs and Don Tournaments, and Ash getting more than 6 pokemon. XY has the pace to do the ideas right this time.

>>18564510 Yes! One thing I'm loving about Unova is that Ash is actually catching shit. This needs to happen every season, but so far in kalos we're up to what 20 episodes? And he only has 2 new fucking pokemon.

You'll change your mind on that after you realize that every single non-starter/bird Pokemon he catches goes about 20 episodes between their appearances. We see Palpitoad THREE times in the entire fucking series.
Anonymous
>>18564387 You really wanna know when it goes to shit?
Every episode after the Litwick one and before the Nimbasa arc is either pointless filler (bad ones at that) or a history episode about Iris. You'll eventually make it to the Club Battle arc which is Bullshit: The Tournament. After that you'll get to the episodes where Meowth joins the cast and I advise you to skip each of them. The Nimbasa arc only has one good section and that's the first two episodes which are dedicated to the Subway Masters. After that, it's "Watch Ash do stupid shit: The Experience". It gets so bad that he uses an inexperienced Oshawott to a OP Darmanitan and forgets that Emolga is part flying to which he gets his Palpitoad OHKO'd and he actually thought Palpitoad was gonna sweep Elesa. He proceeds to run in and out if the gym to exchange Pokemon.
After that it's fillers again, but there is an enjoyable episode where Cilan and Chili bond. There is also an episode where Iris bonds with a Deino only for the writers to troll the audience by having its trainer come at the last sec, and he's actually the same trainer Morrison fought in the Hoenn League.
After those episodes there's a two parter about the Kamis but it's not worth watching because almost the entire hour is filled with stock footage and Iris glorification. There'll be an enjoyable battle against Clay only to be completely ruined by almost all of the next episodes being pointless filler. Ash gets Krokorok in one of them and both him and Cilan face off against Skyla only to get completely buttblasted until DEM evolution. Even Pikachu gets its ass kicked, by a Swanna of all things.
Next comes the Clubsplosion which is a OHKO Fest until the later rounds.Episodes after that are pretty shitty "development" episodes consisting of Tepig evolving, Ash meeting and battling Hachiku, and a bunch of shitty episodes about Cilan and Iris.
After that, Season 2 starts, and if you really care about your life, don't fucking watch Season 2

>>18564533 Don't get your hopes up, a lot of those pokemon go nowhere. It's because they gave him the three starters imo, took up way too much space on his team and he only ever really rotates the last two slots. Krookodile ends up being bad ass though.
The writers clearly picked up some ideas for how to better use Team Rocket in XY, I'd just like to see them get more focus instead of randomly popping up as brief obstacles like they've been. I'm glad a lot of the random humor bullshit is gone and they're not in every episode, and if the Malamar episode's anything to go by, they probably will be taking Team Flare better than they took Team Galactic.

I hope you watch the rest of Unova just to find out how wrong you are. The writers treated Ash's Unova Pokemon so wrong it's fucking ridiculous, to the point where Palpitoad appears 5 times, Unfezant is completely shafted for Charizard, Leavanny doesn't appear until the League, Boldore has no personality and only appears during gym battles, and Ash gets the worse stomping of his life by Roxie, Cameron, and Trip

>>18564596 imo, if you make it through Season 1 and aren't ready to smash your monitor, you'll probably make it through at least the first part of Season 2 alright. The Junior Cup arc will annoy you but there's a pretty great Team Rocket arc right after it.
Just skip the League, you already know how it ends and it's not worth it.
Watch Episode N, skip Decolora Adventures except for the Alexa episode and the last two.
Anonymous
>>18564620 I watched the league and raged I'll admit. I'm autistic enough to watch this filler shit because Ash was my hero as a child. I'm curious to see how the writers murder him in the Unova arc. I just was surprised that EP 1-29 is pretty good, but it's obvious they make it shit.

>>18564620 Early Episode N is just "good" for the intriguing buildup. The finale is monitor-smashingly anticlimactic, killing the entire point.

He gets several turnaround victories from last minute evolutions, needs six Pokemon to beat three in a blatant B2W2 ad, and gets curbstomped horribly to rush the end of Trip's story. None of it's quite as bad as the League, though, and his fight with Brycen is legitimately good.

>>18564702 Problem is that other times it's built up across 3 years, and the arc itself is usually pretty cool even if the finale was bleh.
This time we get all the buildup across two months worth of straight episodes only for it to crash and burn at the end. All the time we were watching it, we knew WHEN the arc would end. It was more like a movie where the first half was intriguing and the second half was total bullshit. Just doesn't work.

>>18564730 Season 2, the B2W2 "adaptation", is split into 3 parts covering Ash's post-badge quest adventures.
Part is is just "season 2", 24 episodes of Dawn returning, another tournament, a Team Rocket arc that's actually breddy gud and the league.
Part 2 is "Season 2: Episode N", 13 episodes of "all the stuff from B2W2 we didn't cover yet", mostly centered around Team Plasma. (N, despite being in the title, really does dick all and could've easily been written out entirely)
Part 3 is "Season 2: Decolora Adventure", 20 episodes of Ash and friends traveling back to Kanto, stopping by a bunch of islands for random adventures along the way. Like 3 of these episodes have something relevant happening, the others are just "adventure of the day that will ever be brought up again".
It's all a massive exercise in how to NOT do a series finale.
Anonymous
>>18564766 The fact that BW and B2W2 have incredibly incompatible villain plots would've led to the writers having to cobble together something halfassed halfway through the arc, so it'd definitely still have been shitty.

Anonymous
>>18564884 Definitely. They specifically said "we'll air them later" a bunch of places, and most likely they WERE planning on doing that up to the point they were told that BW wouldn't be getting a third version, but actual sequels that were going to need anime promotion.
Since that would fuck with the Plasma plot they HADN'T started, they decided to just can those episodes.

>>18564960 They're at least aware of the possibility of X2Y2 games now, and probably playing it safe.
>>18564979 Do note that with DP, the Galaxy arc was plodding forward at an extreemely slow pace for two years before it picked up the pace. This was pretty clearly because they were treading water waiting for Platinum to see how that game would revamp the villain arc.
Anonymous
Anonymous
>>18564984 ...You're right, and now that I think about it, before Platinum was known at least to them, all of Galactic's material was anime-exclusive.
It leads me to conclude J was used as a stand-in villain until they could be used, and on that, I'm willing to guess that we'll probably be seeing Malamar or other placeholders instead of Flare proper until we get news on the next games.

Just a funny bit of trivia: The Iris special will air on March 27, which happens to be the birthday of Aoi Yuuki (Iris' VA, and also the VA for pic related). I wonder if that was intentional or not.

>>18567450 It's the Doraemon formula:
Main character for the audience to self-insert with, the girl he has a crush on, a fat kid with attitude and a snooty, kinda whimpy kid.
It's the go-to formula Japanese writers use when they want a character lineup that's easy to understand no matter how many earlier episodes you've missed.

But yeah, it's just the generic character lineup all Japanese know and understand, so it's the perfect go-to design when you want to make sure things are spelled out for the audience. It's like wondering why generic superheroes wear spandex and capes because you haven't heard of Superman, really.
Pokemon used the formula for the filler kids in an episode too, albeit without the girl
