Why is this Trio not allowed in Kanto?
>>56859686leafeon is a sinnohian mutation and not allowed in the PVRE Kanto region
Leafeon would be better than Venusaur
>>56859686There's nothing stopping you from trading a Leafeon over to HGSS and using it in Kanto.
I don't have a Chappy with just the three of those :(
Don't even have them in pairs
>>56859686it would be nice to have a game where I can use leafeon>couldn't use it in DP>couldn't use it in BW2
>>56861981pla let you have one before the tutorial Is over if You play your cards properly.
>>56859686The same reason Espeon and Umbreon arnt in Ka to even though they are just frienship evos. TRUMP!
>>56861981platinum and sm
>>56861981Platinum, but her moveset is poo
>>56859692this, she doesn't have the traditional kanto collar
Kantonians has such a superiority complex that they refuse to acknowledge pokemon outside of KantoThey don't even let you have a Umbreon or Espeon, when it's perfectly legal to be friends with your eevee on the other side of Mt. Moon
>>56859686I've often wondered why they made the eeveelutions Fire, Electric and Water, and the Birds Fire Electric and Ice. I wonder if they were leftovers from when they were experimenting with type triangles.
>>56859686It was always weird how Leafeon didn't evolve with a Leaf Stone. I'm glad they finally fixed it.
>>56861981Platinum is reasonable if you don't mind a little backtracking, or catchup grinding if you wait until you get Fly, in PLA it's pretty easy to get one, and in ss/sv you can easily get both an eevee and the leaf stone it (now) evolves with
fluff
>>56861981I remember using one in Ultra Sun since the moss rock is on the grass trial and that is like the halfway point of the second island
>>56863781It goes back further than that. In the Blue source code under source/Temp/common.dmg there's lines of code indicating that there were once Fire/Ice/Thunder stats instead of Special, but who knows when it development that was considered and the birds/eeveelutions are late enough additions that the stats were probably removed by that point even if they were on their mind from shit like FF/DQ.
>>56859686Jolteon should have been in Gen 2
eeveelutions without collars are not canon
>56862799>her >56862832>she
Just let it be Jolteon. My autism flares up every time I see them use Leafeon over it when Rivals need to fill their team with the obligatory "Other Pokemon to counter the WaterFireGrass trinity".Might as well teach them the Pledge Moves or the Diaper Beam variants.
>>56864994>Jolteon and Umbreon pairing would be more popularcool
>>56866059WTF I like Sylveon's design now??
>>56866595the real "light" and dark bros
>>56864153>>56866059Should have been like this. I'm not an artist, sue me later.
>>56863799They were really pushing weird ass evolution gimmicks back then>durrh first you need to catch this dumb fish that can only be found in six very specific tiles in the entire game and those tiles change positions every time you submit a new catchphrase to the reporters so you probably put some dumb shit like "I CAME TO RALTS" so anyway after that you need to max out this fucker's beauty stats, good luck figuring it out
>>56866059EspeonGlaceonVaporeonSylveonAre all Biological Female FelinesUmbreonJolteonLeafeonFlareonAre all Biological Male Doggies
>>56859686i unironically like Leafeon better than Jolteon.
>>56863781>>56864210It is the common jrpg elemental triad.
>>56859686>Vaporeon and Flareon not allowed in KantoQRD?
>>56869122They were barred after getting a bit steamy in public.
I guess it is a bit weird? A Leafeon wasn't thought of until Beta GS, and not finalized until Gen 4. The Leaf Stone was always there, but only now replaces the Mossy Rock in current games.
>>56861981inject
>>56863799>>56866749They were afraid of autists getting mad at them retconning evvolutions and screaming, "BUT I HAD LEAF STONES IN RED/BLUE AND COULDN'T USE THEM ON EEVEE! WHY COME?!" so they made up new bullshit methods or items that didn't exist in the previous games to answer the question.Same with like Snorlax/Sudowoodo having to hold an incense while being bred to produce Munchlax/Bonsly eggs.
>>56861428Tf is a Chappy
This is!
>>56859692>>56862832>"leafeon is a sinnohian mutation">Leafeon was meant to appear in Gold and Silver
>>56880492johto is connected to sinnoh tho
>>56867205Umbreon and espeon are peak eeveelution cat foxes.
>>56859686Pure grass? In my polluted Kanto?
>>56880492>>Leafeon was meant to appear in Gold and Silveryeah but it didnt since the leaks arent canon so it's a sinnohian mutation
>>56860490No it would still be inferior due to single typing vs grass/poison. Same deal with Meganium being straight up inferior to Venu.
>>56899412It wouldn't be weak to Psychic, which was the main thing to worry about
>>56859686Kanto is in all of us.
>>56859686Requesting a mossy neck-nape on Leafon, so that he'd fit better alongside the other OG Eeveelutons.
>>56902813
>>56860490Venusaur still clears
>>56859686You can use them in HGSS
>>56859686No one will pick bulbasaur even more
>>56908212you have to trade for leafeon in hgss
>>56861981One of Dray's ROM hacks.
>>56864002Leafeon's movepool in Pt is fucking atrocious. You only get Razor Leaf and Giga Drain off of base 65 Sp. Atk to work with until level 71 where it finally gets Leaf Blade, at which point the game is fucking over. If they had made the Seed Bomb move tutor accessible before the postgame it would've been A-OK, but alas GameFreak is retarded and gay.
Leafeon would be OP
>>56859686maybe it's because i was like 5 then but jolteon was the most popular evolution back in gen 1 days
>>56950723No, it really was one of the best Electrics, with only Zapdos and maybe Surfing Raichu able to rival it. And Electric was really necessary back then, because of how many Water threats there were, and how much better paralysis was, and of course the way Special and Speed worked.
