The ETR 600 is a class of trains built by Alstom, and are used on the routes between Roma-Bolzano and Roma-Trieste. The train tilts, using Pendolino technology, allowing higher speeds to be maintained through corners without causing discomfort to passengers. The trains are operated by Trenitalia, originally under the Frecciargento (Silver Arrow) branding used for trains capable of travelling between 250 km/h and 285 km/h, In 2022 they were rebranded under Frecciarossa (Red Arrow) after the Frecciargento branding was retired.
The ETR 600 has also been adapted for use in China as the China Railway CRH5 Hexie. Initially 60 sets were ordered, of which nine were manufactured by Alstom and 51 by CNR Changchun Railway Vehicles. Since, another 80 sets have been created for a total of 140, operating across China’s north from Beijing to Ürümqi.

you know, I feel like gamefreak really did not need to add like 100 new pokemon per gen on average. we all got faves that are part of an archetype, mine is Pidove the gen 5 route 1 pigeon, but like most of these really are just bloat. they ofc could totally make the 1025 3d models to have every pokemon in a game, but like they put themselves in that position by making so many god damn pokemon that really just kinda do not need to exist
gen 5, banging games, but uh an entire pokedex which is just kanto redesigns sure was a choice in terms of roster bloat
“b-but we NEED new pokemon every gen to make the game fresh and new!!”, idk man I’d just iterate on my game design more rather than the novelty of 120 new silly guys, only half of which are useful. legends Arceus seemed to do pretty fine with a handul of new evolutions and regional forms
I’d spend the next few gens just doing some regional forms and evos like that, give some pokemon like Mawile an evo or two ( I know it has a mega, but a I think megas are cringe and b megas are not in the newer games). Dudunsparce came outta nowhere, they can totally do it. and also retool some stats to deal with the absurd powercreep.
Counterpoint: having a game with entirely new pokemon until you unlock the nat dex was really cool
There are now like 8 or 9 pidgeys they are just making up a bird name pun every 3 years
