The day we get a proper answer to how tall the grass is, is the day we truly find out the sexuality and the gender of Him from the PowerPuff Girls.
It's also capable of hiding full size dinosaurs.

I imagine Suicune would use it's powers over the aurora to conceal itself with light…or not. Either way.
As for Entei, who needs to hide when you can just sleep-walk straight through buildings?
And yet Eusine still wasted his life being unable to find them…
…Minimize.
<img src="http://verydemotivational.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/demotivational-posters-how-the-hell.jpg" alt="" width="492" height="454" />
They're an electric tiger, a burning lion whose roars set off volcanoes, and a leopard who is the embodiment of pure water.
They fight crime.
I'd guess about as tall as the grass in that Super Effective strip.
And the day we truly find out the sexuality and the gender of Him is the day Kotick finally decides to stop ripping people off.
"Okay, the woods are burning down. It's either nothing or Entei…. Meh, probably nothing."
Is probably how trainers manage to not see a pokemon that size.
Can any of them learn minimize? 'Cos if not, you're just gonna look stupid.
Which is also the day Valve learns how to count to three.
And when Shenmue and Dark Cloud 3 get made.
And Xenosaga 4.
And the day M. Legends 3 gets released.
In fact, it'd be a lot of things. So you get the idea.
Clever girl…
Clearly that Zubat's a jetpack in disguise.
oh and before i forget…

They hide in the grass the same way that pokemon hide in caves, i.e. hell if I know.
A hyup.
Pokemon.
Breaking logic since our childhood.
The grass is so tall that I need to use Cut twice to clear the field.
*Stares at National Park in G/S/C*
A very select few Pokemon can learn Minimize… these three are not among them.

This is Halolz. We quote only in lol. :P Of course I got to say whenever I see this scene or I think of the Sniper from TF2 I'm reminded of the other.
Thats nothing, Onix can appear out of no were in caves!
I dunno. Perhaps, similarly, we should ask "Why can't we encounter these creatures outside of the tall grass? Do they bare similarities to vampires and other undead and are weakened by sunlight? But then again, what of the games that implement the Real Time Clock feature, such as Crystal and Diamond/Pearl? Even at night, you can only encounter these creatures in the tall grass. So perhaps, we come to consider that the tall grass is the source of life for these creatures? Perhaps being outside of the tall grass is dangerous to their health. Perhaps, after being out of the grass for too long, the life force of Pokemon is drained? Surviving out of tall grass for extended periods of time is impossible for them. Maybe they're not hiding. Maybe they're restricted to tall grass due to some unnatural need for its sustenance. Maybe, by catching Pokemon, we're actually dooming them to a slow and painful death, keeping them out of the tall grass they need to survive!"
Or…
Or we could just say it's because the game designers will it. =|
Latios and Latias do they same thing, are almost the same size, and they FLOAT.
fucking running legendaries
Zubat couldn't learn Fly until Generation IV. Clearly, this Zubat has migrated from Sinnoh.
The day Square Enix decides to make games instead of interactive films again.
The day Sucker Punch works on Sly Cooper again.
The day a Duke Nukem game is made in less than 10 years.
The day non-Title Defense Glass Joe is difficult.
Easy. Glue.
Well, the people working on Sly 4 have Sucker Punch's blessing. That's gotta be the next best thing.
*Videogames

Fixed.
Dammit.
The day Rob Liefeld learns proper human anatomy
The day Japan stops hoarding the good games from the US
The day a Sonic game is done right
The day utter crap stops showing up on the front page of DeviantArt
Wouldn't it be easier to put them all in pokeballs?
Critical Quit: Your first one: Deus Ex: Human Revolutions
Maybe its because animals in general that stand out in the open get eaten by predators and Darwin was right.
Unless the insides of pokeballs are lined with the same life-giving essence as tall grass?
Yes. And I am very happy about its being made in the first place, and I'm going to go ahead and be optimistic about Sanzaru.
I've never played that game.
Knee high grass? Oh, come on! It's got to be at least… waist height!
It's. Awesome.
Why the hell has there not been a raptor pokemon yet? We got T-Rex, Pterodactyl, and that stupid thing that hits stuff with its head. RAPTOR WANT
Use a terrifying roar.
Run away like a girl.
My desktop PC is broken and I can't afford it for console anyway.
The only answer I can think of is that Raptors are such a nasty thing and they're side-by-side with some of the more ruthless killers of the prehistoric era. Granted the T-Rex and Pterodactyl aren't snuggly-bunnies but when people think of raw killing machines -- thanks to Jurassic Park -- they think the Raptors (No one remembers the goat leg scene!).
This is a problem given the fact Poke`mon don't die. They faint and lets be honest they really push an stretch that pretty damn far to the point of being a moot point anyway since Poke`mon clearly *can't* heal on their own. They need Pokecenters.
Also: [obligatory: Free Healthcare but lemonade is 100 yin, WTF!]
I call them legendary gerbils and be done with it.
OBJECTION! Square Enix only published it. The true dev is Eidos Montreal.
Waist high fence of infinite progress blocking.
I will give up the right to plus one for a month if I could just get this to the top of the page…
Well, some pokemon can learn recover and soft-boiled and such.
Also, it's only free for pokemon, not people.
1st: No idea who that is.
2nd: Learn Japanese and import.
3rd: Sonic Generations looks promising.
4th: It only shows the most recent stuff, not the best.
There is actually a jet pack attached to Squirtle that you can't see behind the zubat
Maybe it's not "I'm hiding in grass.", but "The grass is head height and you can't see through it."
Still, anything that Square Enix has had a hold of recently has been like poison to a company.
1st: http://www.progressiveboink.com/archive/robliefel…
2nd: Possibly
3rd: We've been saying that about every last sonic game in development
4th: No, it displays pics that were nominated by people.
For some reason when I see this:

Raikou gets extrasensory?
Clearly the butterfree is just as bad at following the rules of physics…
don't ask questions you don't want answers to…
You can easily see the bulbasaur holding on to the butterfree with vines.

nodirtyjokesnodirtyjokesnodirtyjokes
feeble sapling of apparently great strength
It's not a matter of how he grips it… it's a matter of WEIGHT RATIOS! A 70 lb Butterfree cannot carry a 15 lb Bulbasa- Wait, what?
HOW THE FUCK DOES A BUG WEIGH 70 lbs!?!
Lies… it MUST be duct tape
because, the bug is a fat loser with no life and can go die in a hole and…..
wow…
im evil
1st: I've seen a hell of a lot worse.
2nd: Get some culture, damnit.
3rd: We at least know this one has some solid gameplay planned.
4th: Front page is newest stuff by default, but Daily Deviations are nominated.

1st: The dude makes a lot of money out of crap drawings.
2nd: I have other priorities
3rd: Yeah. The 2D part. But the demo does not consist of a single 3D level.
4th: No, you can have it display the most popular OR the newest.
I know right? When I first saw her, I'm like "Should be blue and a diamond shaped…it's a shiny inbred Suicune!!!"
Then I whipped out my ultraballs. She got away…
how is it strapped on then?
Well then,
I fart in your general direction. your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries

and, this is why I use this: http://memberfiles.freewebs.com/66/60/51676066/ph…

And I wasted my life standing on a mountain…
wait, what am I saying
MOUNTAINS ARE AWESOME!!!
Can Gligarman come?

SINCE WHEN!?!
It's really a mix, in my opinion. Raikou is unabashedly a tiger. Those canines (punny!) are distinctive to large cats. Entei definitely has some lion elements, such as the mane and parts of it's "mask" resembling fangs, but its shaggy coat is more characteristic of certain dog breeds. Suicune has a dog-like build.
So in the end, we have a cat, a dog, and hybrid of the two. What a compromise!
no one was terrified though thus all is well…
<img src="http://api.ning.com/files/tPDiT9Azgx-T*gLCkyWXL2c5HIWDWxy*QLetMPsdAd1c-sO2t6DH0s5xy*k6pMu7pmOExuYl5zZfPOYw8qI57MyhQYpI1X9C/charmander_doesn_t_give_a_fuck..jpg">
Entei's 'Dex entry mentions volcanoes erupting when it barks, so I'm more inclined to think it's a dog.
The majority of it's 'Dex entries states that it roars, something only big cats can do. My theory of Entei being a Cat-Dog holds true!
Actually, if Bulbapedia is anything to go by, the legendary trio are based on certain real world legendary creatures as well as being an agglomeration of various other animals, particularly canines and felines.
Legendary Pokemon based on real world legends? We need to go deeper.
my favorite part of that comic is definitely entei's eyes in the first panel
Only if he brings Captain Unova.
I think that the Pokemon hiding in the waist high grass is logical… We just have very tall 10 yr olds.
Well you have to include how to handle this problem:
<img src="http://www.vgcats.com/super/images/100225.gif">
Stand on mountain.
LIFE VINDICATED.
Fun Fact: In HG/SS, any Pokemon following you can prompt the script "____ looked off in the distance and barked" when talked to.
…in Japan?

Really? Cause this was my reaction when I saw that rare and majestic deer thing. <img src="http://www.gifbin.com/bin/25yuswsw28295.gif">
Giraffes can't talk… Girafarig apparently does in the show and can bark in game… This is why pokemon need to exist for real.
Since they ruined pokemon! :D
I only heard about this on Pokememes. Did not know whether to believe it. Here is a link. http://pokememes.memebase.com/2011/09/13/pokmon-w…
It… makes perfect sense…. ;~;
1st: So do a lot of people.
2nd: I suppose.
3rd: There's a demo? Tell me where NAO!
4th: I said "by default".
No personal offense is intended by any of this, BTW.
Just saying, cause some people get all butt-hurt over this stuff.
UNOVA PAWNCH!
It's glued on. Pokemon technology isn't perfect.
Sonic Colors was great if you ask me.
Screw you, Police?
If the tall grass has anything to do with the United States, it's the sinking economy. Getting harder to fuel those gas-powered lawnmowers.
Green used Cut!
Its super… gory…
they dont die/heal only in the kid safe anime…
I saw an arbok surviving getting cut in half, and magmars getting frozen and destroyed in the manga
well, he is made of rocks, maybe he does a Terminator entrance…
These pokemon attack a different part of the fence everyday. They're checking for weaknesses.
I'm looking for Sarah Conner…
Yet nobody ever actually buys lemonade for themselves, only for their pokemon =/
Entei is the largest of teh three and is smaller than a real life male lion.
Minivan my arse.
Entei grows to be 6' 11". A lion grows to be a little more than 4'. I think Entei does become the size of a minivan.
Entei: 2.1m and 198kg
Lion: 2.5m and 250kg*
Minivan: 4.6m and some couple of thousand kg I'd guess
Unless you expect me to believe the given height of all pokemon is strictly vertical (but then Yanmega makes an idiot of you; I'm reasonably certain the height characteristic measures its body length) and that vertical height is the only relevant factor when determining the 'size' of something.
But if you continue to assert that point, then I guess Entei is roughly the same vertical height as a minivan. You know assuming it stands fully upright and makes no effort to hide in the grass whatsoever.
*High range admittedly
Measurements given in metric because better/what game freak actually uses
Y'know, the first time I saw Giovanni crush those Magmar, it shook me. I was 16 years old, had seen plenty of gore elsewhere before, but by god, it SHOOK me. Pokémon weren't supposed to die, they might get harmed grievously, but they didn't ever die. Until the manga. I have to be honest though, seeing that, I knew this manga would forever, no matter what, hold more respect with me than the anime ever EVER could hope to achieve.

Actually, just returned from Bulbapedia; It was just another one of the brainless schemes of Team Rocket. He never got fired or thrown out.
