...they seriously named him Citron?

I'm gonna wait before booing the new mons. Some may surprise me.
I cannot speak for the other person who did some booing, but I was specifically speaking about yesterday's release of four of five new ones. There are many from the earlier releases since January that I like.

It appears that the new mewtwo form is a 'speed' form, similar to Deoxys-S, and not an evolution.

the above link mentions something about different cloths the characters can have. my response would normally be 'I don't give a rats butt'. In this case however, I think i'd switch the clothing just so I wouldn't have to see them in what they are currently in.

Am I the only one who thinks Pangoro looks and sounds like an absolute BAMF? I haven't been this excited for a new Pokemon in a long time. Come to think of it, I remember going "oh, this is kinda neat", but not "Holy crap, this guy looks awesome!" I get the feeling he'll end up becoming one of my favorites.

Now, Gamefreak, can we get some Heracross love?

I have a feeling they are avoiding addnig evolutions (pre or post) to old mon. They've since stopped adding them as of Gen 5, and before that only Gen 2 and 4 had new evolutions, with 2-4 introducing a handful of Preevluions. Gen 2 only had new evolutions for new types (Scizor and Steelix), and baby mon to introduce breeding (and are all utterly forgettable). This is just my opinion, but I think Gamefreak has realized that Prevolutions are not wanted. More evolutions, however, are up in the air. I'd much rather some subpar single stagers get an evolution than something that is at least somewhat good, like Heracross and Pinsir.

I don't think pre-evolutions are bad so long as they're used on the right Pokemon. Magby, Elekid, and Smoochum were decent pre-evs for me since they took really had to get or powerful Pokemon like Snorlax, Magmar, and Sudowoodo and gave them a more viable means to acquire them. I would LOVE to see a pre-evo of Scyther and Lapras and even one for Heracross now that I've seen how tough that mo'fo can be since my last SS run.

Pichu was a waste of a pre-evo but at least it was cute. I wish they'd stop adding evolutions that just RUIN the line like Rhyperior and Magmortar (who turned an already nasty-looking line into something utterly repulsive)
