This is the XD Shadow Pokémon opinions page. If you were looking for the Colosseum opinions, click here. NOTE: I am NOT trying to rip off MAGNEDETH's list of Pokémon Green sprites. These are my full honest opinions and it only takes inspiration from the pages.

THIS PAGE IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION. ALL OPINIONS YOU SEE HERE ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE UNTIL THE PAGE IS FINISHED.

This is for the list of XD Pokémon. See page 1 for Colosseum Pokémon.

Shadow Pokémon

Pokémon Menu Model Opinion Good for a future sequel?/Extra Notes
Teddiursa     As I said on the previous page, Ursaring is a good Pokémon to have. So far, this is a pretty good start for the list. Definitely.
Ledyba     And here's where things go downhill. Ledyba and Ledian are both terrible Pokémon. Bad stats, bad looks, bad moves and bad names. Seriously, who do they hire to decide which Pokémon should be in it? Monkeys? Come on Genius, you can do better than this. No, I've had enough of Ladybug Pokémon.
Poochyena     Here's where things get a little better for XD. Poochyena and Mightyena are both pretty decent Pokémon in my opinion. I don't see anything wrong with it. Let's hope XD stays this way from now on. Mightyena should have a shot.
Houndour     Like with Houndoom in Colosseum, Houndour's a good Pokémon to have. Nothing wrong here. Seems fine to me.
Spheal     Spheal has always been one of my favorites. It's especially good once it evolves. Don't see anything wrong here either. Sealeo or Walrein deserves a chance.
Baltoy     Baltoy and Claydol have always been odd to me. Don't get me wrong, they have good stats and all, but I don't prefer to use Baltoy. Either is fine I guess.
Mareep     Mareep, Flaaffy and Ampharos are all good Pokémon to have, and with recent advances in evolution, you can get a super Ampharos that has GORGEOUS HAIR. A sequel would be meaningless without a shadow Ampharos.
Gulpin     Gulpin and Swalot are more examples of strange Pokémon that have good stats. Again, I don't tend to use them, but I'm sure some players may find a use for them. Again, either is fine.
Seedot     Seedot is a pretty good Pokémon, especially when it gets to its final form. Nothing wrong here. Nuzleaf would be good.
Spinarak     And things get bad again. Spinarak and Ariados are good in stats, but beyond that, terrible. Again, I can make a better Shadow Pokémon with Jynx.
Numel     Numel and its evolution both are great in stats, but like Miltank in Colosseum, Camerupt's a party pooper, especially Dakim's Camperupt. It always took out Entei with its explosive bowel movements whenever I'd try to catch it. I don't use either because of that reason. Camerupt should have a chance, no matter how much of a pooper it is.
Carvanha     While Carvanha and Sharpedo have two of the best designs in Generation III, their stats disturb me big time, with very low Defense and Sp. Defense. Sorry Carvanha, but you weren't fit for duty. No, there are plenty of other fish in the sea.
Shroomish     I do like Shroomish and Breloom very much, but I think Shroomish is just too cute to be a Shadow Pokémon. I think they should've went with Breloom on this one. They should do Breloom instead of Shroomish. What's next? Shadow Teletubbies? Oh wait. That's even more terrifying.
Delcatty     I'm not particularly a fan of Skitty and Delcatty, but Delcatty was great for Lovrina, as Delcatty matched up with Lovrina's stereotypical teenage girl attitude "purrfectly". No. Delcatty only worked once. I don't think it'll work again.
Voltorb     What's the point in judging this one? It won't even last long enough to begin with. It would be interesting to see a Shadow Electrode actually......until it Explodes.
Makuhita     Oh look our chubby buddy is back! I'll just say what I said in the previous article. He's lacking in speed, but great to have in your party regardless. Yes, it'd make perfect sense trust me.
