I disagree with Talon.

Spoiler: show
I think seeing N with the White Pokemon meant more to me then seeing him with the black one. He was sort of the "good guy" out of the bad guys. He wasn't a bad person, and despite his evil affiliation he was still a good guy. Seeing him with the white legendary felt appropriate.


Fav legends:
1- Mewtwo
2- Ho-oh
3- uhhh.. none? I like Latias kind of :/
4- Heatran is cool
5- I like Kyurem. Then again, it's the only legend I've found. >.>;

I really liked Reshiram when I first saw the pair revealed, and still prefer it. T'was why I got black even though I liked White's exclusives a lot more (except Cottonee). That being said:

Kanto: Articuno - first legendary and Pokemon I ever saw, on the playground at my daycare when I was like 7 or 8 years old on an older kid's Gameboy. Didn't get the game myself until a year later when I lived in California.

Johto: Lugia - I wanted Silver purely because of him, and worked well because my little brother wanted Gold for a similar reason. Suicune is a very close second.

Hoenn: Eh...Latios, but I don't really feel as strongly about it. Wasn't particularly inspired by any of them this time around.

Sinnoh: Similar to the above, but I guess I'd have to say Shaymin. Had no idea how to get it, and once I found out how I wouldn't be able to, joined Yahoo! Answers and tried to get somebody to trade me a hacked one or help me out (though no one did).

Unova: Not quite sure, would have initially said Reshiram, though I kind of like Virizion too. Haven't developed a bias yet.

Spoiler Alert: Although Mewtwo is my all time favorite legend of all time, Articuno was the first legend I've ever seen, and was my first love.

I have to agree with this, since I hadn't seen Reshiram until that scene, and so had no idea what it looked like. It was a lot more moving/meaningful a scene for the reasons you said.

Also, Zekrom looks weird when using DragonBreath. Don't believe me? Watch where Zekrom's DragonBreath comes from. Its model is so large, the centre of attack comes out in a "weird" place.

Haha I said the same thing about Hydragion yesterday and flamethrower.

In what way were Latios and Latias dragons, too, I wonder?
Paradise Birds.
Don't know what they have to do with Dragons, though. Then again, same with Hydregion.

An ENORMOUS insect abdomen for a tail! What is up with that? I know I said it looks cool, 'cause it does , but wtf!? It looks like what belongs on a hornet, not a dragon! And if it is going to be on a dragon, then why wouldn't it be on the Dragon/Bug dragon? How is this clearly hornet-shaped body part a dynamo for electricity?
It's a generator.

Yes, I realize that. -_-; (Somebody should look up the word "dynamo." ) What I'm discussing in that post isn't function but form: it's an insectoid design attached to an otherwise non-insect-looking, non-insect-typed creature and that's frankly ridiculous. Generators are usually cylindrical in shape, not conical; and Zekrom's tail is undeniably similar to a wasp's/hornet's abdomen. (See? Here's a typical generator and here's a typical wasp!)

They tried to marry a typical dragon tail (Conical) and a dynamo. If you think it looks like an insect abdomen, okay then.

A typical dragon tail is not a cone and lol @ you for trying to force that argument. If you're going to sit there and tell me that earthworms, fingers, monkey tails, alligator tails, and Deoxys's arms are all examples of cones, I'm going to sit here and tell you to go back to basic geometry.

Oooooooor you could just say, "Okay, I admit: a conical tail doesn't exactly scream 'dragon,' does it? "

(For actual classic dragon tails, try here, here, here, or any number of the dragons here.)

See picture in sig for my reaction.


It is an elongated cone. Unless you want to try and convince me it's a circle...?

Zekrom is so badass.


In terms of legendaries through the generations I'd say
Gen 1: Mewtwo
Gen 2: Ho-Oh
Gen 3: Rayquaza and the Regis
Gen 4: Darkrai
Gen 5: Zekrom, honorable mention to Thundurus.
