    This reminds me of something I wanted to ask...

    I have (I think) a Gameboy Advance somewhere as well as Nintendo DS. Both of them can play original gameboy games (I think) and if they can't then I might still have my original Gameboy from 89 or whenever somewhere.

    Can I use a gamelink cable or w/e to xfer pokemon from the original Red/Blue and Gold/Silver to the newest generations like Black/White? Or is xfer in those cases more complicated?

    Better yet, can I put the old Gameboy cartridges into the DS and get lucky enough to have some kind of internet/wifi ability to move them that way? Because that'd be loads more convenient than buying a cable.

    All DS's are incompatible with Gameboy and Gameboy Color games. You can only slot in Gameboy Advance games via the GBA slot in the bottom of the original DS and DS Lite. 3DS and DSi removed the GBA slot as I remember.

    You can only transfer from the 3rd generation onward in a one-way trip - 3rd transfer to 4th permanently, 4th intertransfers among DPP and HGSS, and 4th transfers permanently to 5th.

    So yeah. This isn't going to be awkward at all.

    Oh yeah, I'm definitely going with the fire fox. Well, assuming they're the real evolutions.

    They ain't, I'm afraid. There's been no announcement concerning the evolutions of the starters.

    I'm kind of glad of that, actually. As an original generation fan, I've been here since the inception of the franchise, and I deliberately didn't go for Black and White because I found the art style to be too off-putting. Some people liked it, or at least didn't mind it, and if that's you, that's fine. But not me.

    So I'm glad that's just a derivative, because it looks too much like the cluttered, overbusy B&W artstyle for my taste. I don't find any of the three particularly attractive.

    If it wasn't for the fact that it already exists, I'd call it an obvious friendship evolution, because it looks like it.

    Maybe it's an Eeveelution that's based off of the beauty stat for contests?

    I can only think that it'd be a straight up evolution that keeps it as the normal type. That doesn't exactly look like one of the other types.

    I am starting to strongly think it will be a light type.

    In this image, you see sparkles around Ninfia, and a rainbow is also in the picture. Also, only one eeveelution is being released, possibly because we already have Umbreon? There are a few other theories that I think are possible, mainly flying and an evolved normal version, but I favor the light theory.

    Introducing a light type would be strong fuckery and play havoc with the existing balance of types that works well.

    The only reason dark and steel were added was because the typing in first gen was broken. People want to see a light type addition but I can't see it happening.

    I could see light being added as a way to make poison stronger, but that's about it. Poison basically does fuck-all right now, outside Toxic and Orb combos.

    Venusaur just got super pissed off and shot a sludge bomb at you. Then it used its chlorophyll boosted speed to catch up to you as you flee, nailing you again.
