No. 494: Victini

oh wow, it has been entirely too long, you guys.


The 5th Generation kicks off with a bang, as Victini explodes into an unprecedented 0th spot on the Regional Pokedex. I don't know why they did this, like to hide it even more than putting it at the end? but whatever.

Fire / Psychic is a pretty neat combo, and if Victini wasn't a legendary that I refuse to use on principle, I would totally put it in my team. The dude's flashing peace-and-love signs like he's Vash the Stampede, he has a giant Viewtiful V on his head, cute lil' fangs, and another V in the form of tail-wings.

The whole design manages to evoke a rabbit, yet also a little angel imp, and also carry a consistent theme. The theme is having Vs all over the place, in case you couldn't tell. But whether that is meant to evoke victory, peace, the roman numeral 5, the 22nd letter of the alphabet, or one of the more dubious imageboards around, that it up to you.


Overall: 10/10

  1. What I liked about Victini is that you could get it really early in the game at level 15 (if you got the ticket through mystery gift) so it could grow as one of your team.
