Assuming the leaks are correct and Pokemon traded to Sun & Moon from RBY keep their Gen 1 types, how will this affect the meta? Will Magnezone, Cleffa, Mime Jr. and Igglybuff also have different types?
>>27635550
do any of them benefit from losing their other types?
I guess Magneton for loosing double ground, but then he loses all the benefits of steel defense that make him useful in the first place
>>27635550
Magneton would he op. 4x weakness
>>27635550
it doenst amke sense that they lose their types. maybe the leaker fucked up. how do you explain having a non fairy clefairy and a normal one at the same time?
>>27635742
Kanto Forms.
It'd be cool if they used Regional Variants to explain that
Plus it'd be cook to be able to use Extreme Speed Togekiss again
>>27635550
It wouldn't affect a thing, because all of them would be inferior to their Fairy and Steel type counterparts.
>>27635550
Cleffa, Igglybuff, and Mime Jr. would not have different types because they would have to be bred and that would make them Gen 7 pokemon.

It's shit m8
>>27635742
>It makes more sense that their types change when transferred
>>27635550
The only thing this would be good for is the fucking guessing game that would take place whenever these fuckers appear.
>>27636252
Yeah, it does.
In-universe, they're always had those types. They were retconned, they didn't just randomly gain those types one day.
>>27636252
But that already happened before when you transferred a magnemite/ton from RBY to GSC

>Something that happened 15 years ago
Ok
>>27635822
>use Extreme Speed Togekiss
Why the fuck would you do that?
>>27636354
And when you transfer a Clefairy from BW to XY. That's three years ago, anon.
>>27635742
Pokemon is a multiverse
>>27636093
You know the good thing about different forms is that they could give Magnezone an entirely new 2nd type since he wasn't around for Gen 1.
>>27636330
First time seeing these leaks. Would be cool.
I'm assuming the pupper evolves differently depending on time of day.
>>27638404
>First time seeing these leaks.
People really don't seem to care, I know they probably won't be competitive but it's still nice to have new forms.
>>27638560
It's just a cute gimmick.
Only autists will get triggered. Not like Jigglypuff being normal again or Manganite being a pure electric is going to break the meta or anything
>>27636318
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>27635684
how would he be op without all those resistances
>>27635550
none of them gain anything with this, they all just become worse
>>27636358
because togekiss speed goes to the extreme
>>27639204
>none of them gain anything with this, they all just become worse
They have the honor of being the first Kanto exclusive forms.
>>27635550
>ghost clefairy
>poisonpuff
>>27639454
into the box it goes
>>27635550
I'm pretty sure that Igglybuff will kept the same type
>>27639564
>>27635550
What if they kept the old properties to their moves? I know it's unlikely but what if wrap/agility Dragonite is brought back?
>>27636358
It was always a nice priority surprise. I only battle friends so I don't need the most Smogoned team
