I've always imagined his signature move tying back to the Robin Hood motif by stealing the stat boosts from the attacked target.

>>27909666
There is no rock moves with priority and Talonflame have a ability giving it priority on every flying move, this is not the same as rowlett3 being another tropius with aecen more shitty ability

A 4x weakness to a type that a lot of offensive pokemon carry for coverage

having a 4x weakness does not hinder all pokemon
breloom,Tyranitar,Gliscor,Garchomp,mega Zard Y and Talonflame all work fine even with there weaknesses

Ability=move set>typing

>>27909666
Wow anon. It's almost like rock type moves are harder to come by than ice type, with no priority

Now count the number of pokemon here who have a 4x weakness to common offensive type like ice or fighting. A 4x weakness has never prevented a pokemon to be good.
>>
>>27909784
>breloom
Has acces to spore and grass/fighting is better than grass flying
>Tyranitar
Has an amazing ability and free assault vest
>Gliscor
Ground flying>>>>> Grass flying
>Garchomp
Dragon ground>>>>>>>> grass flying, and it has great stats
mega Zard Y and Talonflame> their ability alone makes them amazing, sniper isn't even that good
>>
>>27909784
>Ability=move set>typing
Don't forget stat, Weavile is one of the only good ice type because of his speed.
>>
>>27909704
Anon you're forgetting something. serene grace
>>
>>27909784
That's where the problem is, each of these mon's have a gimmick i.e. Toxic heal, sun for water types, focus sash/spore

Garchomp has 600 bst

RootHoot also just has a lot of weakness to a lot of common types

Ability and stats make or break a mon nig, typing is usually only ever an afterthought.

I wouldn't be surprised if they added a rock-type priority move this gen just for talonflame.

Can only hope it has a way to break steel.
>>
>>27909998
Shaymin sky is a way to do it right
but i don't think it would be that good if it didn't have serene grace or seed flare

if you take away most of the attack def and spdef stats i can see it being close to rowlett

Being pure grass has been the kiss of death for many potentially viable mons, grass flying is even worse.

>grass/fighting is better than grass flying
Not really if we only talk about stab because we don't know robinhoot moovepool, grass flying give you a great neutral coverage and is only resisted by some steel type and some electric type.Meanwhile grass/fighting struggle against flying type and poison type, but is super effectif against steel.
Defensively Grass/fighting has more resistance, 6 notably the rock and dark one, but also one more weakness. Meanwhile grass/flying only has 3 resistances, one of them being a double resistance to grass but also an immunity to ground type. The type is also not weak to psychic and fairy, but has a weakness to rock.
So I wouldn't say that one type is better than another. If Robinhoot doesn't have disgusting speed, he could be a good pokemon. There was a time when Jumpluff was a good pokemon.
>>
>>27910068
Thousand arrows.

>>27910477
Stop this shitposting.
>>
Why do people forget that in viability terms the top 5 starters include two grass types. Also what's to stop it getting Gale Wings or an entirely new ability as its HA
>>
>>27910506
it's steel
resisted by steel = shit.

nevermind grass/flying is better in all other cases.
>>
>>27909528
>brings in Scizor
You stand on no ground with that argument, anon.

I do hope that he got an ability/move which boosts arrow attacks when you're on fire or someone uses a fire attack on you

Because of flaming arrows

>>27910506
>There was a time when Jumpluff was a good pokemon
fucking when?
>>
>>27910782
That'd be shit. Please no.
Maybe adding a burn effect to arrow moves, or making arrow moves be simultaneously the normal typing and fire.

It's Z Version and Gen 6.5 over again.
>>
>>27910718
A lot of steel type have a second type that make them neutral against either flying or grass though

>>27910785
Gen IV/V weather war, chlorophyll jumpluff could outspeed the rest of the meta in the sun, that and because it could learn sleep powder and sword dance made it able to easily set up for a stab flying gems boosted acrobatics and easily clean up team.

You're a retard, Scizor is the most used OU pokemon and Diance is everywhere even though it gets OHKO'd by Scizor everytime.

Typing doesn't mean shit, what makes a pokemon usable are stats, ability and movepool.

>>27910963
Someone fucking gets it. A pokemon can have a type like Rock/Steel, but if it's moveset, ability and stats are top tier or just really good, then it will succeed.
>>
>>27911144
rock/steel would be unironically great on something that was incredibly fast, as rock/steel still has a niggerton of things it can switch in on, but switching in on things is again only useful if its fast and can check things. Rock would help the checking part of this equation as rock is GOAT offensively.

If the owl for some reason actually gets thousand arrows its going to be UU at the worst, probably BL because UU hates birds.
>>
what's with this thousand arrows meme? the animation is literally firing out zygarde's hexagons.

best owl can hope for outside of massive pandering and special snowflake ability is either tinted lens flying moves or fighting coverage like focus blast/jump kick. i'm optimistic game freak won't fuck it massively though. also lol at all the retards pointing out

>b-but ice shard!

fucking switch out ya dingus
