Why are pic related Ground-type?
>>
Because they were murdered by poachers and are thus buried underground
>>
>>27242822
Because that's where their family is

bones come from the ground

why isn't pic related Ground-type?
>>
>>27242822
Because Bonemerang is a Ground-type move.
>>
>>27242844
but bones come from bodies
>>
>>27242861
Why isn't it Psychic type? Or Ghost?

Why Steel?
>>
>>27242822
Because they live on the ground
>>
>>27242889
Because it has steel spikes poking out of it's wrists and chest
>>
>>27242889
This

I always thought Fighting/Dragon would have made more sense than steel. Or Fighting/Dark, Fighting/Psychic, etc.

Why aren't pic related grass-types?

I don't understand Marowak's head

on Cubone the eyes make sense but on Marowak they're directly on the bone? is it even bone or is that just what their head looks like?
>>
>>27242822
Why do bones bring ground to mind?
>>
>>27242955
Because is Woman/Flower
>>
>>27242955
because muh quirky typing, GF thinking they're clever by making people ask this question

at the very least the final form should have been part grass as it is fully combined with the flowers at that point
>>
>>27242889
So you can nick it coldsteel
>>
>>27242861
Why doesn't the Aura pokemon get the ability that buffs its auras?
>>
>>27242962
every cubone found in the wild is a direct descendant of the cubone from lavender. it wore it's mother's skull and when it evolved it's head grew to fit it and fused with it. it's offspring were all born with the skull already in place. all pokedex entries refer to the original.
>>
because they did not give a fuck 20 years ago what a pokemon is or does, they only wanted to sell digital drugs to stupid children. now these kids are hooked and want their life to have meaning, so they post shitty threads like this

>why isn't pikachu electric/ normal?
>he seems pretty normal to me

>why are eggs psychic?
>why isn't it only one egg?
>why is one squished?
>does it die if one egg gets lost?

just enjoy the game

The japanese version of that scene was fucking sad since it had that scream.

Answer these, please

Psychic types are the designated awkward quirky type, so the developers can go crazy with them. Also Exeggcute are pink. Doesn't that scream Psychic to you?
>>
They're associated with bones and death, which are associated with burials, with are associated with the ground.
>>
because they're brown
>>
>>27244268
>Ground is the evil menacing dethdark spooky type
Since when
>>
>>27244226
>>27244204
>>27243115
I think they're psychic because they share a hivemind with each other.
>>
>>27242822
Because he got grounded by life.

>>
>>27242822
I thought it had something to do with bones being buried. Of course, most animals don't bury they're dead, and those don't look like human skulls. Still, I think their like grave gaurdians or grave-robber pokemon. It also makes me thing of so-called "fossil" ivory, which isn't actually fossilized, but is just elephant or mammoth tusks that are left on or slightly in the ground after the corpse rots away.
>>
>>27242962
It's a hollow.
>>
>>27243638
What bothered me about that scene was how they were able to kill it with a cattle prod when it's a Ground-type. Not to mention the fact that Pokemon regularly take harsher punishment than that. When I was a kid I always thought they murdered it with Golbat or something.

Well it can learn several dragon-type moves for a reason
>>
Maybe one day will be dragon
>>
>>27242907
By that logic Blastoise should be Water/Steel.

Fighting makes sense. Fighting/Psychic too. Fighting/Steel is just weird.

if i pull out that flower, will you die?
>>
>>27248602
that'd be pretty cool. i hope it isnt a mega though. it should just be a regular evolution. i feel like people are going crazy about megas and just forgot about all the pokemans that need regular evolutions.
>>
>>27248646
>Mega's to go even further beyond evolution.
>Regular evolutuon would be to much to manage.
>>
>>27242822
Because bones/fossils are associated with the earth and dust in Japan, which is why they're ground type and fossil pokemon are rock type.

Same reason why the new Moon legend isn't dark type, dark is the evil type in Japan, and the Moon isn't a symbol of evil or darkness there. Its a symbol of light, beauty, wisdom, and also sometimes cute rodents.
>>
>>27248628
But Blastoise should be water/steel

I hope this wasn't what you were implying

Out of all the combinations possible, why specifically Flying/Ground?
>>
>>27242889
It's not psychic because aura is supposed to be ki, which is more related to physical fighters and typically has a division between magic/ESP and ki/chi, some bullshit about internal vs external or something. It's not ghost because it's not dead or haunted, dummy.
It's steel because it has knockoff wolverine metal claws.
>>
>>27249095
I always thought it was because it was a scorpion & since they're mostly desert dwellers

But then after seeing the name as "Glide+Gargoyle" it kinda blew my mind, & while that theme really doesn't carry over to Gliscor's design (being a cross evo & all) Istill find it pretty nifty.
>>
>>27242889
I don't know man.

>>27242932
Why are these three fuckers part poison type?
>>
>>27249345
ive wondered that as well. pure ghost fits better.
>>
>>27242822
Because they are brown.
>>
>>27249375
brown people = sand people
sand = ground
>>
>>27242889
I remember seeing somebody say something on this. Basically, the chest and fist spikes are to reflect that is has "a heart and fists of steel".
Also lucario's jap name involves wordplay on orichalcum, a mythical metal.
>>
>>27242969
>ashes to ashes, dust to dust
>return to the earth
gee I wonder
>>
>>27249603
Lucario's jap name is Rukario, literally the same but adapted to Japanese pronunciation
>>
>>27249623
>Lucario may be derived from the reverse of the Japanese transliteration of orichalcum (a mythical metal) or oracle (referring to its supernatural abilities involving aura). It may also involve lupaster (a subspecies of the Canis aureus), Cairo, pharaoh, lykos (Greek for wolf), or luchar (Spanish for fight).
Just posting the info that I saw, not claiming it as 100% undeniable fact
>>
>>27249623
Lucarios's jap name is "Lucario", you retard. "Rukario" is just transcription, like "Jigarude" (Zygarde).
>>
>>27249345
Gastly is gaseous, completely consists of poison gases

>>
>>27242861
and why is it Steel despite being covered in fur and not metal?

because Steel/Fighting is more edgy.
>>
>>27249853
>that fuckin gif

my guess is cubone secretly has time travel powers.

or two mothers
