Do we really need the 2 extra Regis? They broke all the established Regi lore
>>59383277The established Regi lore is that there should be one Regi per type, as they are remains/recreations of Giants that were born from shard of Arceus's egg and beat the living shit out of him.
>>59383277And the regional Kanto birds and the Hisui mon. They just feels wrong.
>>59383287i've said it many time before, but i'll say it againregional variants were a mistake
explainb how they break established lore
>>59383399By mindbreaking manchild delusion these things were ever immutable sacrosanct creatures and weren't instead a legend trio that just didn't catch as well as some of the others, but better than others of the same.
>>59383293Many of the best new mons are regional variants because they force game freak to work with good designs.
>>59383477>take old mons but slap facial hair on them and call it a day>take old mons but change colour scheme and call it a day>best new monsKEKnot in the slightestregional variants are shitty and lazy designs that can only gain fans from nostalgia (it looks like the old mon so it's good!) and nothing else
>>59383494What pokemon do you like?
>>59383277the lore says that regigigas moved continents so it represents passage of time and regis represents ages: ice, stone, iron, dark and electric
>>59383522But there were no dragon ages why is regiedrago a thing
>>59383543No dragon age YET
>>59383543dinosaur age or medieval age
>>59383287If you are referring to Enamorus, then you are wrong. She complements the genie trio and completes the set of four auspicious beasts in Chinese mythology.
>>59383277I like how zoomers pretend regigigas wasn’t already a retarded addition
>>59383293Regional variants are the best thing the Pokemon Company has created.Megas were a mistake.
>>59383285Headcanon
>>59383277what lore did they break exactly? I'll wait.
>>59383285>himHer
>>59383642Regigigas was added so that the golems would have a master, as was the case with Beasts/Birds Trio in relation to Ho-Oh/Lugia.
>>59383718As I said, I like how zoomers pretend regigigas wasn’t already a retarded addition
>>59383277>continental drift + as old as the geological age of the earth>stone age>ice age>iron age>medieval age>modern agethey don't pose any problems with the lore
>>59383510the gen 2 mons take up a lot of my favorites, outside of gen 2PorygonRhydonStarmieMawileTropiusGastrodonWhimsicottEelektrossDruddigoni also used to be obsessed with Bellsprout, Crawdaunt, and Armaldo, but so much anymore, they're still cool designs though
>>59383285>beat the living shit out of himThat's a weird way to spell "Arceus broke apart the giants and turned them into weapons for itself"
>>59383900Its wild that in all anime content from 2009 to 2024 that the Plates are always in the shape of traditional japanese coffins. Really drives home that Arceus is just lugging around dead giant corpses.
>>59383277The extra Regis are among the first Pokémon that I'll decanonize once I become the King of Space.
>>59383918The Jewel of Life Arceus seems rather out of character with other depictions of Arceus, I can almost see a character with mysterious knowledge of Arceus strive to pacify it, only revealing at the end they have an Arc Phone, and were given instructions from it to "calm the Original One".
>>59383285>The established Regi lore is [retarded fanfiction]
>>59383918They have also retained this appearance in recent episodes of the anime. But the giants killed are not the Regis
>>59383522how do people still believe this. this shit doesn't make any sense when you think about it for more than 2 seconds
>>59383277Modern Age + Medieval Age, it's okay
>>59383992If this is recent, why does he not have the normal plate?Is the normal plate not canon in the anime for some reason? Why not?
>>59384321It is one of the 18 plates
>>59384288Then thinking is not your strong suit
>>59384336wheres the legend plate?
>>59384355>oh yeah, bro, the regis totally represent eras of technology like the stone, iron, and ice ages!>but please please just don't think about how one of these isn't even an era of technology or how it happened in the same time period as the stone age
>>59384321>there are 18 plates in the pic>there are 18 types>all 18 plates are identical
>>59384392The Legends Plate is visually distinct from the 18 other plates; it doesn't contain the energy of a type, but rather the essence of all creation. Why it's not present is unknown, but this plate is not a destroyed giant.>>59384406It is likely that the anon you are replying to made a mistake in counting the plates.
>>59383277Work for me, now give me a Poison Type from the Fallout Age
>>59384427Based.
>>59384424But wheres the legend plate?
>>59384427>Middle AgeThe Japanese literally don't have this.
>>59383784>nothing past Gen 5As he said, nostalgia
>>59383277>caring about Pokemon lore after they created Arceus despite Mew being the ancestor of all Pokemon
>>59384468Because the hebrew golems made of inert matter that protect people are japanese now?
>>59383285fpbp
>>59383285That's not the Regis lore, that's fanfiction
>>59384468There are also no wild populations of elephants and giraffes in Kansaiand still look at the fauna of Johto
>>59384484>'dex entries never once say it IS the ancestor of all pokémon>just many believe it isAnd as the pokémon games are a reflection of our real world, I'll just point out many scientist assumed you couldn't take women on expeditions to study gorillas, as they'd be dragged away and raped until Dian Fossey went and showed the entire scientific community they were a bunch of sexist shitheads (and likely projecting their own innate desires).
>>59384427In the lore, the Regis help and guide human civilizations
>>59384504>Giraffe>Doesn't know what a Kirin isGo home white boy.
>>59383285wrong
>>59383277No
>>59383293Variants were just the copout they came up with to reuse pokemon ideas after everyone got pissy at them for the gen 5 mons. We were always going to get one of the two because gamefreak runs out of ideas yet the pokedex must grow.
>>59383277Dragons and magic crystals belong to the medieval age and electricity for the modern age
>>59384933NTA, but Girafarig looks more like an Okapi to me. They belong to the giraffe-family
