neither are centipedes

>>27897380
No.
I don't know, stag beetles maybe?
>>
I would love a spider type were there enough Pokemon to justify it. I'm hoping for a new arachnid in Sun/Moon. A spider could make for an amazing legendary too.

>Arachnid type
>Super Effective towards bugs only
>Has every other weakness Bug has

Don't think it'll work, unless you want to give the type all of the weird traits real Spiders have, like that one probably-Aussir spider that can catch birds and snakes or that one Spider that can breath underwater.
>>
>>27897380
yes there are.
there are insects that hunt the biggest of arachnids even.
i don't know if there is a pokemon based on these bad bitches yet.
>>
>>27897523

As soon as mushroom Pokémon stop being Grass-type.

As it stands the bug type is based on just common vernacular. You see a spider, you call it a bug. Most people assume fungi are plants until told otherwise. It's best to not take this stuff seriously.
>>
Shitty idea but could be balanced.

SE against:
>Bug (Spiders for the most part eat bugs not the opposite, I know there are exceptions but whoop-de-doo aren't you a picky cunt)
>Psychic (Fear of spiders)
>Flying (Spiderwebs are made to hinder and trap flyers)

>NVE against:
>Grass (Spiders don't eat plants, for the most part you nerd faggot)
>Rock (rocks resist spiders, I know from experience)
>Steel (A classic)

Weak to:
>Rock (rocks squish spiders)
>Fighting (punching or stomping them is easy, and yes, it's different from Bug because insects are usually scuttly and shit like that while spiders stay still for the most part)
>Fire (They burn like a crisp)

Resistant to:
>Poison (Spiders often are venomous so it makes sense for them to resist it)
>Dark (Spiders see in the dark or something, I don't know I'm not a spider researcher)
>Bug (Obviously)
>Flying (Whatcha gonna do, fly to the spider and then what? You get caught in the web, bitch)

Basically a slightly altered Bug type.
>>
>>27898293
I want this. Also add samurott.
>>
>>27898293
Crustacean type

SE against:
>Water (Crabs eat fishes and shit)
>Ground (They also dig and shit)

NVE againt:
>Fire (They don't want to get burnt)
>Flying (Can't clamp easily those bumbling flying fuckers with your short ass limbs)

Weak to:
>Fire (They get cooked by it)
>Steel (Metal is harder than their crunchy shell)
>Fighting (A strong fist can crack them)

Resistant to:
>Water (duh)
>Normal (Their shells are hard, normally)
>Ground (They dig and shit, they aren't afraid of a little dirt)

>>27898612
Fungi type

SE against:
>Normal (Mushrooms grow on things and even on you if you aren't careful)
>Ghost (Mushrooms live off dead matter)
>Ground (And they commonly grow on all sort of soil)

NVE against:
>Grass (They just coexist)
>Fire (Ever grown mushrooms on a fire? Think again)
>Steel (Can't grow reliably on Steel)
>Bug (meh)

Weak to:
>Fire (Fire cooks mushrooms)
>Bug (Bugs eat mushrooms, I guess)
>Fairy (Pixies and Smurfs live in mushrooms, they carve the fucking shit out of them)
>Psychic (Knowledgeable people can tell poisonous mushrooms apart)

Resistant to:
>Grass (They just coexist)
>Water (They like damp places)
>Ground (They like growing in dirt)
>Poison (They are often poisonous themselves)
>Electricity (Can't zap a mushroom)

>>
>>27898067
>Tortoises
>Turtles

>>
>>27898191
Chesnaught would be a Chestnut type
>>
>>27898191
chestnaught is a mix between some kind of mammal and a chestnut, not a turtle, you imbecile.
>>
>>27897535
i want a tarantula hawk pokemon
>>
>>27897755
in laymans terms, maybe.
formally speaking, a bug is an insect of the order hemiptera
arachnids are not insects though.
