To make Eevee evolve into a ghost type, you take the evolution stone and just bash it over the head until it stops moving.

Um POS, I think Pokemon is trying to NOT encourage animal abuse but I could be wrong after all it is cockfighting (literally if you consider Blaziken).
....*inserts awkward silence*...

Cue the dancing penis!

What might also be neat is giving Poison type a legendary. Since they are the only type without one.

A non-exhaustive list of typings and their representatives:
Normal: Arceus (technically, he could be other types plates, but normal is default). Gigagigas is another if you want a more stable option.
Fire: Several, starting with Moltres and ending with Reshiram.
Water: Kyogre, Suicune and Palkia immediately pops to mind.
Electric: Several, starting with Zapdos and ending with Zekrom.
Grass: Celebi and Shaymin immediately pops to mind.
Ice: A couple including Articuno and Kyurem, who will be more prominent next game.
Ground: Groudon and Landorus comes to mind.
Rock: Terrakion
Steel: Jirachi and Cobalion comes to mind.
Fighting: The entire Musketeer group.
Psychic: Who could forget Mewtwo/Mew among several others?
Flying: Several, the most famous probably being the elemental birds of Red/Blue and the two mascots of Gold/Silver. Props goes to Tornadus for being the only pure flying type as well.
Bug: Genesect at least.
Dark: Darkrai
Ghost: Giratina.
Dragon: The Cosmic Trio and the Tao Trio.

As you can see, every other type has at least one representative, although Poison doesn't have one. Would be neat if that changed for the next one as well.

So, my friends and I are doing some weird HG/SS challenge thing. I don't know the name, but basically it goes...

release/box your starter as soon as possible.The first 6 pokeymans you catch are your team. You must have all six slots full by the 5th badge, and your starter released before getting your first.

my Idea so far is to grab a Geodude or pidgey right from the start and adopt it as my starter. spam the game corner and safari zone to get some of my favorites, and grab an evee to evolve into whatever type I need to balance out my team.

Any standout advice for this?

It'll go right into storage then

So, they revealed some new things about the supporting cast, including character redesigns.

I have to admit, Bianca actually looks cute in glasses.

And Cheren is now a gym leader. N is still missing. And Bianca is Prof. Juniper's assistant.

More information is found here. Spoilers beyond link.

An early, Normal-Type Gym leader, at that. Hurm...

You think that's something...try this trailer.

Makes me sad. Sad to know that the real anime doesn't have animation quite that good, or a protagonist that isn't Ash.

But yeah, that was great. I could watch that fight scene over and over again, or just stare at that spinning Magneton.

In in-game news, I'm building a team around Slaking. Seriously. It involves Cofagrigus, an Eject Button, and Pursuit. Now, I'm just building teammates to support him against the stuff that he has trouble with.
