More like Spearow.

[–]Raffo54 196 points197 points ago

Pidgeot doesn't learn drill peck.

[–]imakitty 43 points44 points ago

Also that isn't large enough to be a Pidgeot, perhaps he is thinking of a spearow.

[–]lazy_smurf 24 points25 points ago

you have the proportions wrong, it's standing on the lip of a crater.

[–]Knightbre 4 points5 points ago

If we only had an Asian man with a magnifying glass to clutch the bird by the neck to take a closer look.

[–]rajonmondo 0 points1 point ago

It might not be the cool sentiment to express (probably because it gets said so much) but this comment made me think about how much I miss the original 151 Pokemon. You know, back when they didn't have anthropomorphic bags of garbage as the little critters you captured.

[–]toebirdie 6 points7 points ago

Hey. Trubbish is awesome.

[–]rajonmondo -2 points-1 points ago

He's got his fans, I have to admit that. And if anyone is going to make a trash bag character appealing it's Nintendo/Gamefreak.

[–]Ragelova123 3 points4 points ago

Also, it completes the pollution triangle!

Muk = water pollution.

weezing = air pollution.

garboder = land pollution.

[–]delebird 0 points1 point ago

space pollution

[–]Ragelova123 3 points4 points ago

satepol.

Steel/poison

A wrecked satellite with an eye.

[–]dancekevindance 1 point2 points ago

Loudred = Sound pollution.

[–]Ragelova123 1 point2 points ago

Lanturn = light pollution.

[–]Unknown_Unown 2 points3 points ago

Genwunner.

[–]kbb5508 4 points5 points ago

Because the original ones were so creative. Like the magnet with eyes. Or the pile of sludge with eyes. Or the rock with arms. Each generation had its share of both awesome and stupid Pokemon, it's not just the newer ones.

[–]rajonmondo 0 points1 point ago

You seriously think a Hefty bag is comparable to a plate-covered geological monster?

I understand Muk is a pile of toxic sludge, but at least that's more indicative of man's misuse of waste products than something found in the wastebin inside your house. Might as well make a Listerine-bottle Pokemon or a cone of ice cream. Oh wait...

[–]cdankochik 6 points7 points ago

seriously, have you even played black or white?

[–]kbb5508 5 points6 points ago

plate-covered geological monster

Giving geodude a fancy name doesn't change the fact that the desgin is basically a rock with arms. I could easily use that same technique for the newer generations. For example, Vanilluxe is an chilled polycephalic confectionery creature. You're letting your bias cloud your judgement.

[–]rajonmondo -3 points-2 points ago

My embellishment of Geodude's description wasn't intended to fancy up the character itself; the point remains that at least it fits the description of a monster more than a few pieces of balled up trash in a Hefty bag.

[–]kbb5508 2 points3 points ago

That sentiment is entirely subjective. To me and many others, the design is just as lazy. And why do you keep going back to Trubbish? You seem to have picked a total of 2 Pokemon from Gen V as an argument to say they all suck. You're overexaggerating.

[–]jrgolden42 0 points1 point ago

An Ice Cream cone with more personallity than several G1 Pokemon

[–]rajonmondo -1 points0 points ago

Yeah, go on?

[–]jrgolden42 -2 points-1 points ago

It is an interesting design? I really like the goofy smile that it has? Voltorb is just a ball with angry eyes?

[–]rajonmondo 1 point2 points ago

So how does that give it more personality? Personality implies more than just design aspects, guy.

[–]TheLurkersWill 0 points1 point ago

What are grimer and muk if not anthropomorphic garbage?

[–]juxtaposition21 11 points12 points ago

Pidgeot used Whirlwind!

[–]FonsBandvsiae 1 point2 points ago

Can it be done with a TM?

[–]alec1310 -3 points-2 points ago

Came here expecting this. Was not disappointed.

[–]necrodude 9 points10 points ago

Good for you.

[–]I_canrelate -2 points-1 points ago

i came here to write that myself.. :[

[–]thedarklord187 2 points3 points ago

I came.

[–]FarmerTedd 1 point2 points ago

I saw.

[–]guustavooo -1 points0 points ago

I was shouting out loud this exactly sentence while clicking the link.

[–]Acidpussy 3 points4 points ago

And that's how Sandy started.

[–]Hjorlejf 14 points15 points ago

That's a house sparrow (Passer domesticus), more akin to Spearow?

[–]Asiansensationz 14 points15 points ago

Pidgey?

[–]Do_it_for_the_upvote 12 points13 points ago

ITT: People who take their pokemon seriously.

Really, really seriously.

[–]Not_A_Complete_Loser 6 points7 points ago

It's a game that is worth taking seriously. And anyways, at least they aren't drumming their chests and sacraficing "noobs" to appease the fps gods. xD

[–]HoneyBadgers_Forever 4 points5 points ago

lok faget i hav to pwn 69 newbz a day 2 maek mlg hapay lul

[–]Not_A_Complete_Loser 4 points5 points ago

I'm going to laugh at this... mainly because I have an asshole twelve year cousin that acts just like this... and he's completely dead serious about it.

[–]HoneyBadgers_Forever 1 point2 points ago

That nigga need jaysus.

[–]epilis 8 points9 points ago

DRILLCAT WILL KILL YOUR FAMILY

[–]Infini-Bus 3 points4 points ago

Haven't seen that one in a while.

[–]impossibru65 0 points1 point ago

AND ALL THAT YOU LOVE

[–]pdbdbomb 6 points7 points ago

Would have been cooler if Pidgeot could learn it. But I only know that because of all of my egg-move shenanigans with Skarmory.

[–]Anshin 0 points1 point ago

/r/pics man, /r/pics

This is beautiful

[–]FemFapAlt 2 points3 points ago

As some one who didn't start playing Pokemon until I was 30, it's never too late to enjoy a great game my friend.

[–]Grarr_Dexx 3 points4 points ago

Pierce the heavens with that beak of yours!

[–]Meloku171 0 points1 point ago

WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?!?!

[–]emann43 2 points3 points ago

As someone who never played Pokemon as a kid...I only vaguely understand what you're referring to.

[–]xGunfighter10x 2 points3 points ago

I whip my hair back and forth.

[–]Bejita463 1 point2 points ago

That would have been a much better title.

[–]PsiLoCyBiNTriP 0 points1 point ago

SPIKES!

[–]jim_shoe 1 point2 points ago

whatever Pokemon, it looks like a drill

[–]Pokemaniac_Ron 0 points1 point ago

Excadrill?

[–]likmbch 0 points1 point ago

That's how I feel when I get water in my nose...

[–]mapkinase 0 points1 point ago

ringo

[–]aisleofview 1 point2 points ago

Pidgeot says no.

[–]Anadoj 1 point2 points ago

Nice pic. Not sure what a pidgeot or drillpeck is, but thumbs up anyway.

[–]Phoequinox 0 points1 point ago

Must be fighting Squirtle.

[–]LawrenceM 0 points1 point ago

Spearow maybe. Not Pidgeot. This bird has some growing to do.

[–]ArgonGryphon 1 point2 points ago

Fucking House Sparrows. They're so cute, why do they have to be such massive assholes.

[–]BlazeOrangeDeer 0 points1 point ago

You spin my head right round, right round...

[–]patrik667 1 point2 points ago

I DRINK YOUR FOUNTAIN

[–]splein23 0 points1 point ago

I was actually thinking of Fang Passing Fang "Gatsuga" from Naruto

[–]Midnightatnevada 0 points1 point ago

I can't wait to see this as an X-Post on /r/Pokemon tomorrow morning.

[–]jyhwei5070 1 point2 points ago

That's clearly a sparrow (spearow) ....a House sparrow, I think...

[–]Kyle197 0 points1 point ago

It's clearly a snowy owl. Come on man, get with your birds.

[–]Freakawn 0 points1 point ago

Anyone else make a drill sound while laughing?

'Nuff said.

[–]FakePlasticShrimp 0 points1 point ago

I thought this said 'peugeot' and was going to be a thread about how they make shit cars or something. I thought i must have missed something about them being in the news recently lol...

[–]NZMenace 1 point2 points ago

Clearly a European Spearow

[–]themacmeister 0 points1 point ago

speraw use ingrish

[–]gtfo-atheist-douches 0 points1 point ago

ow my pecks!

[–]Aracks 0 points1 point ago

From an amateur photographer perspective: The bird's head is more blurred than the water meaning the birds head is moving faster than the water is splashing/falling.

[–]ootika 0 points1 point ago

Is it pronounced pih-jee-ott or pih-jit? I've had this argument for years with friends.

[–]CoyoteStark 0 points1 point ago

Don't listen to the Redditors, Pidgeot! Yours is the drill that will pierce the heavens!

[–]JonSnowTheBastid 0 points1 point ago

This earned 1600+ karma??? Wtf is funny here?

I like how you used a Pokemon reference for this heavily reposted image for the kids browsing this weekend.

[–]Sparked01 -5 points-4 points ago

repost police? anyrwhere?

[–]ACL711 -2 points-1 points ago

This is actually a wonderful photo. Did you take this?

[–]Kyle197 0 points1 point ago

No they didn't. It's an older photo.
