I don't mind Crustle not being Water because it doesn't learn Crabhammer. Why not just make Crabrawler Water type so he gets STAB on Crabhammer? Crabhammer is ONLY for Water, crab-like Pokemon.
I know after seeing the other thread you thought this would be a sick chance for some (you)s but for the sake of the board please stop
Crabs are not insects you stupid idiot.
crabhammer is for crabs. doesn't matter if it's water or not.
>but muuh stab..!
just shut the fuck up
>>28227071
>water type move
>Doing this again
>Crabrawler is based on a crab that doesn't live in water
>Bringing Doduo up only weakens your argument because by your logic it shouldn't be flying type
>2/3 of the "crabs" who learn Crabhammer aren't based off of crabs
>It's not unusual for distribution of a move to grow between gens and Crabrawler not being water type has nothing to do with why or why not it should get Crabhammer
>>28227157
It completely misses out on STAB for a good move because "Coconut crabs can't swim." Don't you think Crabrawler would benefit from being Water type? Because anyone with competitive knowledge will agree that gaining the WATER type for STAB on Crabhammer is completely worth it. What it's based off of does not affect the type.
I don't care if coconut crabs can't swim, it should be water because it gets a move ONLY given to Water type, Crab-like Pokemon. (Which includes Clawitzer and Crawdaunt)

I sincerely hope you or someone you love gets cancer.
>>28227307
And I hope you have a nice life, friend. I'm glad our conflicting opinions don't make me hate you.
>>28227283
The answer is obvious: Crabhammer is not specifically for Water, Crab-like Pokemon, it's for whatever Game Freak thinks it should be for.
>>28227157
Kingler isn't even a crab, it is is a king """crab""".
>>28226586
This has officially passed through not being funny and looped back around to being funny again.
>>28227283
And this clear disagreement between you and Game Freak is clearly worth making 10+ threads to talk about it.
/vp/ is not your blog, turboautist.
>>28227410
I was thinking the same thing
IF SOMETHING DOESN'T GET STAB ON A MOVE THAT MOVE IS USELESS
That's you, OP. That's what you sound like.
>>28227410
>funny pokemon are illegal in hawaii
>OP posts le funny pokemon
>>28227283
What if it doesn't learn Crabhammer?
Will you shut the fuck up?
>>28227283
Well why should you decide how pokemon are typed? Who died and made you Poke-King? Imagine if crab hammer is the only water type move it gets. Great, so now it gets all the weaknesses of water which covers none of the weaknesses fighting for STAB on a whole whopping 1 move.
>>28227433
It does, and that is the problem. Why not just make it Water type if you're going to give it a move specifically for Water type, crab-like Pokemon?
>>28227461
Why aren't you having an autistic rant about how Crawdaunt learns Crabhammer?
It isn't a fucking crab
>>28227461
What if Crabrawler is a fighting/water type in the larva-based prevo and turns into the pure fighting Crabrawler when it becomes a man (crab)?
>>28227470
Don't bother, he's since shifted the goalposts to "crab-LIKE" after being completely and utterly blown the fuck out.
>>28227461
Translation: Pokemon should only learn moves of the same type as themselves.
>>28227461
The answer is obvious: Crabhammer is not specifically for Water, Crab-like Pokemon, it's for whatever Game Freak thinks it should be for.
>>28227494
>I'm not listening: the reply
(you)
>>28227498
Have fun firing off no STAB Crabhammers just because you think gamefreak is perfect in everything they do.
>>28227486
I'm not even going to say it again.
>>28227521
Lot's of Pokemon I use have non-stab moves in their sets, I'm sure i won't notice
>>28227521
>Chastise someone for missing the point
>Restate the exact same point in the same post he accused you of making
lol
>>28227521
Shouldn't it be Rock-type so it can take advantage of its access to Stone Edge?
>>28227521
Hilarious
>>28226586
>coverage is bad
yeah okay kid
HAHAHAHA LOOK GUIZE
LOOK AT MY EPIC MEME SKILLZ XD
AREN'T I SOOOOOO FUNNEH!!!
>>28227558
Yeah, that's right. Crabrawler should be Ground type, since it's probably going to get Earthquake.
In fact, most of the physical attackers in the game should be Ground type.
>>28227521
Okay. Non-stab ice beams kill shit juuust fine. I'm sure a move with even more BP won't struggle too badly.
Wonder if Iron Fist will boost it.
>>28227521
>"Are you saying that pokemon should only learn moves the same type as themselves?"
>"No! That's stupid, also only water types should learn this water type move."
I don't even need to strawman. That's literally what you just said.
>>28227583
A 120BP physical Water-type move would be damn good even without STAB.
>>28227617
Sorry, it's BP is only 100 it would be 130+ WITH STAB. Depressing huh?
>>28227579
This. Ground-type is fucking amazing. Plus Stealth Rock does fucking nothing to it that way.
>>28227616
ONLY CRAB-LIKE WATER TYPES should learn CRABhammer.
Kingler doesn't get FUCKING STAB on Hammer Arm
He's a fucking hammer WHY ISN'T HE PART FIGHTING TYPE
>>28227660
100 BP move without STAB? You mean the same BP as stone edge and with 10% better accuracy?
Oh no how terrible.
>>28227660
Read the comment chain you fucking blind retard.
>>28227681
The answer is obvious: Crabhammer is not specifically for Water, Crab-like Pokemon, it's for whatever Game Freak thinks it should be for.
>>28227686
Because it doesn't actually knoe martial arts, just swings its arm wildly in a way that is similar.
Why doesn't Ponyta get Crabhammer
I mean it's a fucking crab why doesn't it learn it
>>28227752
It has no hammers to crab with.
Why doesn't Nidoran get Splash (Hop in Japanese, learned by other rabbit pokemon)
I mean it's a fucking bunny
why doesn't it learn it
>>28227752
Only HORSE-LIKE FIRE TYPES should learn HORSEhammer
Only BUTTERFLY-LIKE BUG TYPES should learn BUTTERFLYhammer
>>28227826
Those are its teeth
>>28227283
If it bothers you so much just open your double battles with soak.
>>28227871
But Liligant isn't a butterfly and learns Quiver Dance since it was introduced. That is silly.
