I mean, the fire typing I get. Alola's filled to the brim with grass types. It'd make sense that they'd drop their ground typing in favor fire to better survive. But Ghost? Where's the did that come from?
(And don't you fucking bring up the 'Cubone wears the skull of its dead mother' argument. That shit is a legend started by some scientist fuck who went, "Huh. I wonder why that thing is wearing a skull. Welp, must be the head of its dead mother, hurr durr durr!" And he put that shit into the Pokédex and tricked millions of trainers.)
The website says it got fire/ghost typing to ward off its natural predator, which the site doesn't specify, on Alola. People came up with a pretty good theory that it was Bewear, who just wants to hug lonely cubone.
The pokedex actually says the predator is Mandibuzz, which doesn't make sense at all.

That only applies to that one Marowak in KANTO.
What is Game Freak's endgame with giving types passive buffs, like Electric's ability to avoid Paralysis? Gen VI seemed to really add a lot of these, and VII gave one more to the list. They've only improved as the games have gone on, starting with the obvious "no similar status" on Fire and Ice types. Are they eventually going to give all types something like this?
So far we have in Gen VII:
>Fire types cannot be burned through any means
>Electric types cannot be paralyzed through any means
>Grass types cannot be hit by "spore" or "powder" moves (so natural Safety Goggles/Overcoat)
>Ice types cannot be frozen through any means
>Poison types cannot be poisoned (except via Corrosion) and they soak up Toxic Spikes
>Flying types are immune to every entry hazard introduced so far, except sneaky pebbles. They also don't receive passive buffs from Terrain unless grounded since they are naturally "airborne"
>Ghost types cannot be trapped through moves like Fire Spin, Mean Look, etc. and abilities like Arena Trap
>Dark types ignore the priority boost from Prankster and make the move fail outright
>Steel types are immune to the poison status (except through Corrosion)
What else could we see in the future? So far, these types have nothing:
>Normal
>Water
>Fighting
>Ground
>Bug
>Rock
>Dragon
>Fairy
>>30777429
Water or dragon might lose being burned.
Ground might lose paralysis via body slam and the like.
Rock won't be damaged by sneaky pebbles.
>>30777632
>dragon losing the ability to be burned
fuck no
>>30777632
>Water or dragon might lose being burned.
please no
>Fairy is now weak to Normal
>Water is now weak to Poison
>Ice now resists Grass
>Rock now resists Dragon
>Fairy is no longer immune to Dragon, it only resists it
How much better is the meta?
>fairy is now weak to normal
No

Let's dedicate a thread to shit taste shall we?
Post your tastes nobody can agree with.
>>30777224
I Think Salazzle is stupid furbait.
>>30777224
alolan golem is garbage trash
lillie is overrated and only just passable and takes too much screentime away from better characters
bw story needed better execution, not the worst though that would probably be xy
ash-greninja is garbage the concept is stupid and it has no reason to exist other than selling twice the greninja merchi find palossand's refresh animations adorable
Is Fairy the worst thing to ever happen to the series?
>>30776995
I'm consistently on the fence about this.
A part of me likes that they added a new type and that it helped to balance out Dragons and differentiate types like Dark and Bug from Ghost and Grass a bit more. It also gave a reason for offensive Steel and Poison moves.
On the other hand, the type conceptually doesn't really have a theme beyond "cute and pink." Why are the Marill and Ralts lines Fairy types, but Gothita or Pikachu not?
It also sort of steps on the toes of a lot of Psychic and Normal Pokemon, and muddies the waters of those types quite a bit. Prior to Gen 6, those were sort of your "catch all" types and now it seems to be Fairy. They bleed together way too much as typings, imo.
Also, Fairy is very centralizing. Does it really need to be immune to Dragon? That alone makes it kind of too powerful. It also is a very tough type to take down defensively. Being weak to Poison and Steel is awesome, but those types don't have the best coverage and there's only a handful of mons that can use them effectively within a moveslot without feeling like it's a wasted spot.
I also didn't like having to teach Steel and Poison moves to my Pokemon or carry those types on my team in SM. I do like both types quite a bit, but it sort of screwed with my Karenfag sensibilities when I had to start packing moves like Poison Jab and Flash Cannon or running Togedemaru/Scizor to make it through the main campaign with all those Fairies running around.
They just need to give it another weakness and make it just resist Dragon, IMO. Maybe make it weak to Normal? That could be interesting.
>>30776995
No, it made poison/steel a reasonable attacking type and opened the gates for more pokemon concepts
Sick of new legs being slapped with paychic

That's not how breeding works.
Does anyone with Moon have a spare Celesteela they'd be willing to trade for a Kartana? Not concerned with Nature or IVs, just want to have a complete set.
IGN: Jeremy
Offering Lvl 60 Kartana
"I want to complete my Pokédex."
Trade kartana for pheromosa and buzzwole for celesteela, it's only fair.
>>30777144
>it's only fair.
no
Anyone have porygon 2 and/or porygon z? Those are the only two pokemon I need to complete the dex, I just need them registered I'm not trying to make a living dex. I've got all the other trade evolution pokemon if you need them

Current Yellow team. A bit generic in some places sure but that will change. It may pain me to do it but I might swap out Pikachu. Simply because I'm on an emulator and there is no way to evolve it.
