What Pokemon is Tom?

[Darknight2433]

I love Psiduck. That's definitely going to be on the short list once I make a poll.
I might do Farfetch'd if Jaz lets me borrow her giant leek. I don't feel like a farfetch'd though.
I think I'd call myself Tomgepi if I cosplay'd Togepi.
As far as the Bidoof....well I'd rather be a Bibarel.


Snorlax is a bit to much of a "fatguy pokemon". I mean I'm comfortable with my tummy but he's a little too much. Blastoise is awesome but I feel I should be taller for a famous one like that. I'm fine with the others though, I'm not going to try and pass myself off as a Vulpix or Hitmonchan.

Oh, and MISSINGNO is RIGHT OUT! 

LET'S FORGET ABOUT MY IDEA >:

[TomtheFanboy]

Oh skip all this Pokemon stuff, and go as an anatomically correct Tanuki!

I have considered doing a tanuki from Pom Poko, with optional combat balls for after hours.

[jaybug]

That was the only Ghibli film I had to stop watching. It was right after the part where the one tanuki says to the others that the rug they are all standing upon was made from his testicles.

lol oof

O SLAP! I totally EDO'd your suggestion of Drowzee.

As neurotic as my other posts make me seem I actually like Drowzee. He's kind of a spiteful kind of lazy rather than a big dumb guy.

my vote is still for blastoise.
he is a big guy, but he is a beast, and he is far from lazy.

plus you then get squirtle squad to back you up, and there is nothing cooler than that amirite?

[TomtheFanboy]

Yes Blastoise is awesome and I would love to have some manner of functioning cannons, but he's too big. Not around, but up, he's a big pokemon. And unlike Snorlax he actually is meant to be a bigger version of another pokemon (and no, don't bring Munchlax into this). Blastoise is at the other end of the spectrum I guess, the one I'm too small for. I'd want somebody at least 5'10" cosplaying somebody like him.

I've been told that my personality distracts people but I'm only 5'6". According to the charts for my DOB I'm at the very bottom of average. It doesn't come up much because I don't let it get to me but I do consider my height as well as my weight when choosing costumes. It's not as embarrassing but it is something that can make your costume look better when you're in a group.
(And before you start throwing numbers girls, you're not a guy so you're supposed to be shorter. No whining unless you're 5'0" or less.)

hey tom, just for the record, you are taller than blastoise.

*rages about his office firewall blocking the picture*
OK, cool. I thought he was like, Charizard size.

...Charizard is still bigger than a human right? I'm not completely off base right?

blastoise is 5'3"
charizard is 5'7"

[TomtheFanboy]

OK, so my mental image was right, it just had kids in the picture instead of adults.
Which makes sense.
Because it's Pokemon.

Anyway, the height thing is still relative. I'm still holding out until the end of the week for more input before I make the thread with a poll in it.

Look I'm not going to stop all this and cosplay Blastoise just because you love Blastoise and have a Blastoise sleeping bag, pillow case, pillow plushy, licensed plushy, normal/foil/misprint playing card, toothbrush, super ball, giant superball, flip flop sandals, baby shoes, T-shirt, T-shirt with Charizard, T-shirt with squirtle squad, baseball cap, plushie cap, 3 different squirt guns, imported fruitsnacks, lolipop, cookies, ramune bottle, misprint ramune bottle, bootleg vhs tape, licensed dvd, 50 piece puzzle, bathtime toy, wristwatch, or baby onesie.
And no, not even if you have the Blastoise Kitchen Fun Catsup and Mustard dispenser!

i'm not actually that big of a fan of blastoise, i just like pokemon in general.
you could say that i was a pokemon fanboy of sorts..

i just think you would be good as blastoise. i mean, you can't go wrong with 2 super soakers sticking out of your shoulders amirite?

[Konan-ChanX3]

I have considered doing a tanuki from Pom Poko, with optional combat balls for after hours.

I second this. As well as Bibarel.

XD

Well I could probably make a Bibarel costume that could be converted to tanuki after hours. Ooh, and maybe even a Tanuki Suit Mario! So many possibilities for one brown fur suit!

Oh my Jenova.. Tanuki suit mario would be win. would you add the attack balls for after hours fun? >>

[xcthulhux]

this has gotten so off topic.

so, how about them water types eh?

blastoise, slowking, bibarel


hey tom, how about ludicolo?

[Konan-ChanX3]

We're not off-topic.

My votes:
Tanuki Mario
Bibarel
Bidoof
and... Feebas.

[xcthulhux]

Tanuki Mario=not pokemon.

anyway, bibarel is not a bad idea, but i still think blastoise is the best bet.

[TomtheFanboy]

Actually as the OP (orgy pornstar) I say that it is on topic because the end goal is to help me decide on a cosplay. If I can use a bidoof or bibarel cosplay for other things than this sways me in their favor. If other people express amusement over those possibilities then that too helps.

Don't be bitter just because nobody else is on the blastoise wagon with you.

[superjaz]

you know it would be awesome if you went as a south park version of  a Pokemon

[TomtheFanboy]

YOU ARE DISQUALIFIED

[Seluecos]

Someone mentioned Snorlax, I'm doing Snorlax ^^

[xcthulhux]

Thats why im voting blastoise!

btw tom, im not bitter, i just don't think its on topic

[TomtheFanboy]

so there's yet ANOTHER snorlax. 3 total. YEah, I'm less enthused about munchlax now. I have a feeling that people will get us confused.

I wonder if you used cosplay.com and google and some other sites if you could find cosplayers of EVERY pokemon.
Well, the ones in the first games at least.

[Kisitiene]

You might. XP
But if you can't decide on a Pokemon, we got Digimon for ya. It's not until 2011 but we will welcome you with open arms and we might do some summer meets.

you won't.
i have only found one other gengar cosplayer, and that took a lot of work.

[kylite]

MR MIME!

[TomtheFanboy]

Digimon? No! What.... why would....
*sigh*

[xcthulhux]

Digimon? No! What.... why would....
*sigh*

this.

[kylite]

mr mime is a pokemon. hangs out with ash's mom alot

[xcthulhux]

mr mime is a pokemon. hangs out with ash's mom alot

yeah, we were referring to another post.

mr. mime would be a weird one for tom, but i think that he may be too tall for mr. mime, as he is like in the 3"

[TomtheFanboy]

So here's the final count.....of the ones I have considered.

Bidoof/Bibarel/Tanuki ------ Konan-Chan, Kistiene, danayoki, jaybug
Drowzee------ CatchxMe, oslapedo
Togepi------- cthulhu, soundy
psiduck------ jaybug, superjaz,
Slowking----- Roddy Manic, nightlotus
Munchlax----- NARUNIK, Allykat
MissingN0---- Kogaryu
blastoise---- cthulhu
Farfetch'd--- jaybug

We have a pretty clear leader but I will go with the vote once I make the poll.

[AllyKat]

Hey... c'mon... what about something like Hitmonlee? Thats a good pokemon!

You could also make an AWESOME GOLEM

OR a really cool Dragonite....

Before you go blasting off with blastoise or others... consider these options too!

PICS:







~Allykat

[TomtheFanboy]

Too late AllyKat

[AllyKat]

oh...ok... lol

Disregard the previous post then... hehe!

Whatever you choose Tom, will be amazing I'm sure!

~Allykat

[TomtheFanboy]

Thanks, but what I mean is I'm already writing up the finalist poll. I'm going to present all the options so that everybody can vote. Then once that thread dies down I'll have it locked and the one with the most votes will be the winner.
And that's who I'll cosplay.

This thread was mostly here because I don't know that many Pokemon I wanted to make sure to pick one that nobody else would be doing.
