Thread: Zekrom vs. Reshiram

STAB Outrage > NonSTAB Earthquake for SE damage.

And Reshiram was "confirmed" to be more Specially oriented when they officially revealed em (there were bars of varying heights next to the pictures of both). Zekrom was Physical.

Really people? If you're going to make a VS thread, at least make one for Pokemon who we know more about than their name and typing.

If I have to answer this, I'll say Reshiram.

Zekrom. By the looks of it, Sp. Atk and Speed will be its best stats and like what Ryuu said, it looks like it can learn Water moves.

... How do you predict a battle between two Pokémon only known of their typing?

Well, if this is a "Who is better?" kind of thing, I perfer Reshiram over Zekrom.

Water moves are near useless in this battle. Reshiram is part Dragon, which resists Water. Fire is weak to Water. Reshiram is neutral to Water. You might as well be using Shadow Ball. Conversely, a STAB Draco Meteor or STAB Outrage, which Reshiram is weak to would hit a lot harder.

Still, I guess it depends on who's faster. Whomever can unleash their stronger Dragon type move first is more likely to win.

But we don't know shit about these guys other than their types and appearance. Jesus can't you guys wait until the games come out to make VS threads about them?

There's no way I can give a battle-based comparison, considering how little we know about them.

But my personal preference goes to Reshiram; the main reason I'm preordering Black rather than White.

According to my username, I like Reshiram better.

This one is just silly. We don't even know their movepools or stats. So....I like them both.

Reshiram looks really ugly and exaggerated to me. I don't like a single thing about it except it's typing.

At least Zekrom looks badass and doesn't have so much crap on him.

Reshiram.
Maybe it's just because I like that Pokemon, though. o3o

We know this for sure:

Confirmed by Famitsu: Reshiram's Special Attack raises when it uses a fire move. Its signature attack is "Gouka" which has 100 Power and 80 Accuracy. Zekrom's Attack raises when it uses an electric move. Its signature attack is "Zuzarai" which has a Power of 100 and an Accuracy of 80.

If Reshiram's Special attack raises every time it uses a Fire attack, that means it is Special Attacker, doesn't it? Opposite with Zekrom, raising its Attack.

Actually, I think that Reshiram would win.

Well, this is new to me. I'm guessing this is because of their Abilities.

Zekrom? I took one look at that guy and I thought, "What was Japan thinking? I've kinda gotten used to him, but:


RESHIRAM ROCKS YOUR FUZZY SOCKS.

Reshiram :D
