I'm not joking. It fucking looks like an electric/dark type.

>It fucking looks like an electric/dark type.

And? There's nothing about its concept to suggest it would be Evil-type.

Haxorus looked sort of like a Bug/Dragon when first seen in a trailer for BW

But once you got a better look at it, definitely should have been Dragon/Steel. I assume GF was too scared of the potential of a Dragon/Steel nigh-psuedo

Probably, that's why Hydreigon was RE-designed Dragon/Dark, they were afraid Dragon/Steel would be too strong back then. Here's hoping M-Haxorus if we ever get one is Dragon/Steel.

>So because I can make a sword from wood aegislash should be a fucking grass type?

What kind of logic is that? Aegislash is explicitly a sword made from metal, which is why it's a Steel type. Haxorus' tusks aren't made of metal, which is why it ISN'T a Steel type.

You're saying just because its tusks resemble axes it should be a Steel type, because most axes are made of metal. That's like saying any Pokemon that has any feature that resembles a weapon should be Steel type, just because most weapons are made of metal.
>>
>>27401129
That's fucking reaching at best. The thing literally secretes poison, it should be poison type.

Why aren't Remoraid and Clauncher Water/Steel?
>>
>>27401137
They could have just as fucking easily said its tusks were metal if it was a steel type. It just isn't so they didn't. They could put "metal" before "tusks" in EVERY dex entry and you wouldn't notice a fucking difference.

Why do you defend it being pure dragon so hard? It would fit as a steel type, and dragon/steel is good typing. It'd make Haxorus unique. As is he's just a generic ass outrage machine.
>>
>>27401177
IT LITERALLY SECRETES POISON. Moonlight isn't even a dark type attack, that doesn't fucking make it a dark type.

That doesn't fucking matter, that's a game mechanic. The dex entry still says it secretes poison NATURALLY.

Plus, you straight up IGNORED that Moonlight isn't a dark attack when that was your entire argument. Checkmate.
>>
>>27401129
Which doesn't mean shit as far as Dark is concerned. We literally just got a Moon Legendary for Pokemon MOON and it's not a Dark type.

A) That isn't a reason to make it a Steel type.
B) You could literally make the exact same argument for Blastoise.

>They could have just as fucking easily said its cannons were metal if it was a steel type. It just isn't so they didn't. They could put "metal" before "cannons" in EVERY dex entry and you wouldn't notice a fucking difference.

I defend Haxorus being pure Dragon because nothing about it indicates it's a Steel type. You just think it should be because your simple brain sees something reminiscent of an ax and automatically assumes it should be made of metal, despite the dex entry clearly saying those are its tusks, which means they're made of bone.

given how angry it looks and it's coloration (black fur, red eyes) i wouldn't be against the dark typing. it would at least help differentiate it from other electric types. some people are really into this idea, some people are really against it, i'm relatively neutral.

>>
>>27401238

>Plus, you straight up IGNORED that Moonlight isn't a dark attack when that was your entire argument.

When did I make the argument that Moonlight is a dark attack? I argued that Umbreon has a connection to the Night/Moon, it evolves at night and is affected by the Moon's radiation. Clearly Game Freak disagrees that that has no relationship to Dark as a type, because they made it Dark-type.

Wimpod's pokedex also talks about it secreting poisonous fluid, but it's Bug/Water.
>>
>>27401260

Yes, and? There's nothing to suggest Luxray is evil or ruthless towards others.
>>
>>27401305
It doesn't matter if they COULD be made of metal, the point is that they AREN'T. It doesn't say "metal tusks", it says "tusks" which means they're made of bone. Which means the entire argument of "it has axes, it should be a Steel type" falls totally flat.
>>
>>27401360
You DENSE mother fucker. My argument is that they COULD say they are metal and it would make JUST as much sense. It would literally fit perfect as a steel type, it already looks the part.
>>
>>27401408
Which is why it's just another Blastoise. They could add one word to change it but they didn't, so you're just whining about something they could do but won't, because it's been almost six years.

>>27401440
blastoise does have metal elements but i don't know how they would justify a steel typing. the problem is that the steel canons shoot water. it doesn't have any other steel on it's body so it would seem odd to give it any steel type moves other than maybe status moves? i guess it already has flash cannon by level.

they could easily have said that haxorus tusks and armor were metal and then given it a shit load of steel moves. it would have been easily believable.

i think you're stuck on what the pokedex entries say and anon is implying that they would change the pokedex entry to make it steel.

also i never really got the psychic part of the line - on slowking maybe yes, because that red orb thing in its crown might imply that it has psychic powers or some shit, but what resembles psychic on the other two? and what about them is the water part? the shellder biting them? slowpoke could literally be a normal type and noone would bat an eye
