ITT memoryholed Pokemon
>>58234646lets be honest here no one actually likes Jyinx
Typhlosion after the leaks
>>58234650if you don't like the original 151 you don't have a soul
>>58234672Jynx was the least favorite when gens weren't a thing yet.
>>58234646>Gen 1>MemoryholedNo such thing
>>58234646I wonder how they would change Jynx's design if they could go back
>>58234650I like her, she's like an ice witch barnacle and a siren that's pretty neat
>>58234682
>>58234679It could have gotten an evo alongside Electabuzz and Magmar in Gen 4, but it didn't, and instead, we got Froslass, a new Pokemon based on a similar conceptGen 8 gave Mr. Mime an Ice/Psychic variant and evoMega Jynx was scrapped and now we're getting Froslass instead
Elsa
>>58234650I like her. I wish she got something new lately. Weird how Magmar and Electabuzz got more stuff, but Jynx only got a baby.
>its one stage line cousins Mr Mime, Electabuzz, and Magmar all get babies just like she did>doesn't get an evo in gen IV while Electabuzz and Magmar did>doesn't get a regional form+evo in gen VIII like Mr Mime did>even in the age of blatant waifumon bait like Meowscarada the 100% female Jynx doesn't get an evo or regional variant or even a convergent monYeah it's honestly kind of messed up. Even Porygon got evolutions despite the anime banning it.
Kadabra for a while
>>58235142>like MeowscaradaI thought you'd say Tsareena or something.
>>58235142Leaked stuff shows that Nintendo executives still sweat over how Jynx is perceived in the west. That's why all of her extra stuff has been scrapped over the years, including a planned mega evolution. They made the bitch purple and it still wasn't enough. She has literally, more than any other Pokemon, been robbed.
>>58235267Shit sucks, man. At least give her a regional variant or something.
>>58234650I felt that way until I caught one in my BD run.Now I love her. She's my favorite ice witch.
>>58234695In hindsight it would've made more sense to turn jynx into yuki onna than the hockey mask pokemon.
>>58235362Yeah, I think anyone who has ever made her part of their team can't hate this mon. She's great!
>>58234687>barnacleI think GF flip-flops whether this thing has feet somewhere or if the dress is the bottom of its bodyI prefer the latter
>>58234646Interesting typing and movepool, easily the worst design in the whole seriesNo matter how much people bitch about Crabominable and Rhyperior and Flamigo, I'd take them over this thing anywaySmoochum is a very ugly and obnoxious design too
>>58234646How would you fix her?
>>58234677Mr. Mime is uglier and creepier in my opinion. Jynx wouldn’t even be considered all that bad, just kinda weird and too humanlike, if it weren’t for the nothingburger blackface controversy>>58235142>>58235267Hell, even Porygon only got fucked over in the anime. Game wise it’s been treated very well, 2 whole evolutions AND a busted Z move that briefly made it OU viable in gen 7. Porygon2 is also a solid trick room mon in doubles to this very day.
>>58234650I like Jynx and still want it to get an evolution alongside its brethren.
>>58234646She still regularly appears as trading cards etc. despite any potential controversy, so she isn't going anywhere. I doubt she'll ever get any kind of spotlight again though, so no Megas, evolutions, regional forms, etc.
Porygon, at least in the anime
>>58234646i hate how they started giving her spikes sticking out at the side of her dress even tho originally it was obviously meant to be the back of her dress trailing behind her.
>>58235807THANK YOU
>>58234692The Groke is so fucking cool, Jynx could never
>>58235807they changed her skin in gen 2, her hair in gen 3, her eyes and hips in gen 4. she cant catch a break.
>>58235807I never understood how they misinterpreted that, seems like it should have been really obvious.
Could you imagine Jynx showing up in something like Pokemon Concierge, she'd be so out of place with the current Pokemon identity
>>58235807>>58236036Worst of all the early 3D games got it right, she was a victim of the competency crisis
>>58235526I like Rhyperior Could go without the ugly brows and hearing protection, but overall it's a good silhouette, concept, and color scheme

>>58236310LAWL
>>58235542>>58235542Jynx actually won given how bad Magmar and Electrabuzz's evos turned out
>>58236389She was already on that level they just took 3 generations to catch up
>>58236389Magmar and Electabuzz weren't anything special. The boost is needed and in Jynx's case, definitely needed. It wasn't a slouch compared to the other two but it also needed some more to it. Dry Skin is a good ability though.
>>58236350What am I looking at
>>58234672Nobody has a soul. Souls aren't real.
>>58235294Dont make me want to have sex with her
TPC and gamefreak are a bunch of pussies if you don't like a design YOU made just retcon it instead of being autistic as fuck
>>58236914Bottom: scenes from the XY animeTop: flashbacks of those scenes from JourneysThey retconned ash greninja entirely in the anime
>>58237398wtf why lmao
>>58237173Just making a new form prevents fan backlash because the original is still there
>>58234646Could they get away with just fully redesigning the original Jynx from scratch altogether? Keeping the stats, movepool, dex entires and everything; just making it look like something different entirelyDoes Jynx have enough fans to where that would piss off too many people?
>>58234646I still remember her
>>58237151She's actually shaped after the whole gyaru ecosystem (kuro/ganguro/yamanba) though
>>58234679
It caused to much of an effect to be memory holed and is intentionally ignored.There needs to be a list of the ripple effect Jynx had on this franchise.The effects still continue to this day.Who knew a design that was originally based on the original Ultraman homage Pokemon was became this.To think this Pokemon was considered an ace of many NPC trainers known for their feminine charms only to be retconned because of some conceited negress
>>58234646Thank god for that. Stupid ugly early-installment weirdness suffering shitmon.
>>58236246>hearing protectionI wonder why it has that on its head and the item that it evolves with calls itself a protector. Puzzling.
>>58240741There's enough protection on its body, it doesn't need ugly ear protection
>>58234679>black jynx>not memory holed
>>58241678this but unironically
>>58235267>She has literally, more than any other Pokemon, been robbed.Kadabra exists.The card game allows you to evolve abra straight into alakazam to avoid being sued by Uri Geller again.
>>58234650I like Jynx. it's pretty busted in gen 1 especially with traded EXP. the thing is too damn rare so I never got to use it in gen 2.
>>58241696The guy “forgave” game freak. Kadabra gets cards again
>>58241770It only took what, two decades?
>>58235535Water/Psychic typingSlightly more speed
>>58234650Even as a kid everyone hated it without knowing the cultural nono its design was. Why the fuck would anyone expect a fat lady with clear breast cups and ugly wig be even close to a well-liked design? Changing the skin color from black to purple doesn't change the fact that it's just a hideous design.
>>58234646Jynx is getting a mega in za dlc. trust the plan
