Anacybele Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) Yeah, I guess it was just really bad luck. On another note, I now have gotten over 100 different Pokemon and my 100th was a critical capture. ^^ Edited November 30, 2013 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pull My Devil Trigger Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I was so happy when I saw Tackle with 100 acc, I lost battles because it missed before. And it missed a lot ;_; I almost removed Hi Jump Kick from my Hawlucha because he was missing it too much at first, and he was starting to get behind my other poke since he would always die :c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasori Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Poor Bugs. Gamefreak really tried hard to make bugs awesome the last generation and now they got an extra type that resists them. I don't mind steel losing two of its resistances at all. I always disliked going up against steel types past gen because they resisted a little bit too much in my opinion. Ice could use some more love as well. They got freeze dry, but other then that there hasn't been done anything with them at all this gen aside from making hail more crappy.

Pull My Devil Trigger Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 The only type that needs buffing is Grass, all the other suck anyway Poor Bugs.

The thing I didn't like about Steel losing resistances was that it was exactly two types that Metagross's other type is weak to, and honestly, if Steel resists Psychic, why won't it resist Ghost and Dark too? And Meteor Mash getting nerfed too. why you do this to the pokaymanz I like GF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to explain to me how bugs were awesome last gen. And ice definitely needs some love. And while the nerf to steel's defenses is great I'm butthurt cause it gave Metagross and Bronzong 2 more weaknesses funnily enought, the two best bugs (scizor and volcarona) like the fairy introduction. (I still don't get how someone thought it was a good idea to create Mega Scizor. He's definitely not a pokemon that needed a Mega boost IMO. Same can be said for some other Megas) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djing Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Give Ice a Flying, Water and Ghost resist and everything would be awesome. (Those three types can be associated with the cold) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasori Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 You'll have to explain to me how bugs were awesome last gen. Well what I meant to say was that generation 5 showed a little more love to bugs then the other generations did. In previous gens many bug types where kind of bad or crutch pokemon aside from a few exception like Scizor, Heracross and a few others. Meanwhile gen 5 introduced a lot of bug types and while I can't say much about how viable those mons are in competitive play, I can say that they are statistically better then most bugs received earlier. Accelgor, Leavanny, Scolipede, Excavalier, Galvantula and Volcarona are all pretty decent/good and all where released in gen 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) I guess I can see that. Yes, the gen 5 Bugs were good, but overall, GF seems to completely forget them. Gen 1: lets ignore it. Gen 1 is basically "Alakazam tried to dominate the game but failed in front of Tauros" anyway Gen 2: For a generation that is known as "The gen where terrible pokemon resides in", they made Heracross Gen 3: Heracross gets 900.000 amount of buff to the point that it is banned from tournaments Gen 4: Bug gets one of the best move in the game. Heracross gets CC and proceed to dominate DP. Scizor gets Bullet Punch and proceed to dominate the usage stats ever since. Yanmega is made Gen 5: Scizor get the partner he was asking for since Gen 4.... and ends up dominating the usage list. GF made tons of new bug, one of which is still OU despite being 4x SR weak(lolcharizardwho) Gen 6: One of the reason why Fairy might not be as broken as Water type: They lose to Scizor. The early game bug is not shitty(although, to be fair, this gen's early game trash are not shitty at all). Scolipede gained Speed Boost, and 3 Bugs get a Mega Evo(and only Heracross Mega is terrible anyway) If anything, Its less "GF forgot Bugs" and more "Bug of the month stole the spotlight from everyone", and this month the bug happen to be Scizor. Now, if only I can say the same for Ice types beside like Mamo and Cloyster Edited December 1, 2013 by Eradicator Boner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwall Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Gen 1: lets ignore it. Gen 1 is basically "Alakazam tried to dominate the game but failed in front of Tauros" anyway Alakazam usually beats Tauros one-on-one if you use Thunder Wave. Gen 3: Heracross gets 900.000 amount of buff to the point that it is banned from tournaments I've never actually seen Heracross banned from Gen 3 OU tournaments...

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Tauros is still more "common", but its a meta with like 15 pokemon, so eh, my bad Also SD Heracross is banned in Japan, according to a smogon user Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pull My Devil Trigger Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Man, that's a lot. You better start releasing some things or you can give me any decent shit you don't want and release the crap I give you When the Pokébank is out, you should have a lot more boxes. You'll also have to pay for it, but that's a minor detail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Shit man yeah that's a lot The paying is understandable because servers are expensive to maintain so I forgive them for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pull My Devil Trigger Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 And it's not that much, $4,99/year So if you're using it a lot, it's worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
