Kriemhild Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Electric Fighting keeps reminding me of Electabuzz, since he was the original Thunderpuncher (Magmar should have been Fighting as well). Ghost/Psychic, Fighting/Flying, and Bug/Electric sound good though. Not sure about Steel/Dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriemhild Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Rock weakness, and considering Stealth Rock exists... Salamence and Dragonite have the same problem and they both have a 4x weakness to Ice to make matters worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salamence and Dragonite have the same problem and they both have a 4x weakness to Ice to make matters worse. Of course. Not saying that it wouldn't be good, just pointing out a weakness.

Icon of Sin Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 (edited) Hey, Swableye is ghost. Same kinda thing. Hmm... I'd lean more towards the first. Evolutions of both? Not like they're worth any note currently anyways. That Ghost/Dark thing? Yeah, though I still don't see how a ghost, who doesn't have a physical shape, should use fighting techniques. Yeah, but maybe a bit less animal are more robotic. Actually that reminded me quite a few bugs in fiction used electricity, like those damned Diablo 2 Scarabs, but even in Japanese fiction there's been a few cases, like Digimon.

The fact that the majority of them can learn fighting techniques is the strange thing. Metagross-like in that way, then. Sure. But considering how Pokemon seems to be leaning with their new ones, it's likely going to be that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriemhild Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 There should be a Ghost/Normal solely to get past the so far unresisted Ghost/Fighting offensive combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Gengar looks vaguely humanoid and has somewhat more of a physical shape, but something like Misdreavus who doesn't even have limbs is just silly. I'd make a rough sketch, but I draw worse than a 4 year old. Goddamn them and their evolutions that make cool retro monsters look like utter shit, ruining the childhood of many.

Kriemhild Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Misdreavus doesn't have fighterish moves, does she? She can't learn Shadow Punch, I'm sure about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly Focus Blast, which is Fighting type. My guess is that it's just some kind of Hadoken for Pokemon, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prompto Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 My Pokewalker went from 174 to 874 just by shaking it in my hand for about 2 minutes. :D Am I the only one who wants to punch somebody next time they say 'WE NEED A LIGHT TYPE LOL' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriemhild Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Psychic type needs some improvements, seriously. Defensively, it's one of the two types weak to Pursuit. Offensively, it's voided by Dark types. They should probably introduce more types to balance it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would want to pretty much anytime someone would suggest a new type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pokemons that would fit being Light type already have their types assigned to them. They can't change it now. Actually, that applies to any new type that might be suggested.
