No. 441: Chatot

I think is says a lot about the recent quality of Pokes that I was actually looking forward to Chatot.


Who is a Normal/Flying, and hatehatehate, but besides that, he isn't too bad. His head is a musical note, which is awesome. And he's a parrot, which is new.

Plus, he has a neat gimmick. You use the microphone to record a sound bite, and then Chatot uses Chatter, which makes that sound. So you can do damage by having it scream obscenities at the opposing Pokemon. It takes advantage of the DS microphone, something not many things do. Hey, did you know in Japan, the Famicon (their version of the NES) had a microphone in the controller? Yeah, you could shout at the shopkeeper in Kid Icarus to give you a discount, and sometimes he would. He'd also sometimes get mad and double his prices, so yeah.

So Chatot - pretty alright. Interesting, even if it sucks in any sort of actual use. But at least it isn't a shit-covered diaper-pooping baby.


Overall: 7/10

  2. ...i need to try this. the possibilities are endless.

    "consume your own penis you ugly freak!"
    "my teeth are itching!!"
    "help, i think my vagina is trying to take over the whitehouse!"

    unless there's a ridiculously small time limit when recording...

  3. Yeah there is. You might be able to make the 2nd one in, but not the other 2. A friend of mine barely was able to get in "John's a faggot" without running out of time.
