    Default Most interesting of the Poke-men to see in the arena

    What Pocket Monster would you enjoy the most seeing Roy or Belkar fight?

    Personally, Charizard, just because I used Pokemon Red to learn how to read.

    Some of the classic fighter types might be interesting. Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, and Machamp would certainly be in the running. Snorlax might be hilarious as people try to attack it and it stays asleep. Then someone snaps a twig and it hulk smashes everything around him.

    A Tauros or Arcanine would be cool. Maybe a Persian.

    Wobbufett with Focus Sash.

    Roy is doomed

    (For those who dont get it, Wobbufett is one of the three non-legendaries to be placed in the "uber" tier. Counter allows hit to strike back at double the power that you hit him with.Focus sash item prevents him from being oneshot, leaving him at 1 hp for a massive counter.

    Maybe a giant robotic penguin, but probably not much else.

    I wonder if Belkar gets any bonuses for throwing a Rock-Type Pokemon around...

    As for who would make a great match for the Roy and Belkar tag-team, I'd say two Jynx's! :P No in all seriousness, I think a veritable tsunami of Porygons would be an awesome match for Team Roykar!

    For funny value: Pachirisu.

    For general coolness: Slaking.

    And for ability to humiliate every gladiator in the place: Clefairy.

    Houndoom, the fluff text for it says that victims of its flames can never get rid of the pain of the burns even after it has healed. Pretty good challenge for belkar, and he'll have a mark, he'll never forget.

    I imagine that any of the ghost types would make it rather unfair against the gladiators (due to presumably being given non-magical weapons).

    Flying types would also be a challenge if they can attack out of reach.

    Depending on the materials of the weapons, steel types and maybe a few rock types will be hard to dent.

    Psychic types to use teleports and telekenetic attacks?


    Worst possible selection? Something with Perish Song. >_> Kill off all the gladiators and the entire audience in the process who heard the song? Pass.

    Not sure how effective Snorlax's sleeping technique would be in a world where they have coup de grace.

    Damn, now I'm wondering what kind of fort save snorlax would have. Think Roy could coup de grace it with a non-magical greatsword? (fort save: 10 + 2d6 + 7(str mod * 1.5) + 2 (wpn spec) x 2 (crit)). So... somewhere between a fort save of 42-62? Feel free to check my math (it's terrible)
    (10+2+7+2) x2 = 42
    (10+12+7+2) x2 = 62

    For humor value, probably something like Jigglypuff.

    For awesome value... Gyarados or Steelix probably top the list.

    Have any more awesome pictures like that?

    Machamp, Salamance, Tyranitar, Zigzagoon, Aggron, Charizard, Electrive (that new Electabuzz evolution), and Rhyperior, the evolved Rhydon.

    That would be awesome.
