So are they still rock types?

>>28456847
Rock and Rock/Dark

>>28456847
Top one most likely is

I think the werewolf will be Dark/Rock

It's a shame the edgy one will be better because STAB Knock Off.

Rock/Normal or Rock/Fighting

Then Rock/Dark for the Night form.
a.k.a Mach Punch.

>>28456890
STAB knock off isnt that much of a boost, it just makes it something more than a utility move. If the midday form also gets knock off, it will probably be considered better out of a barely better typing

>>28456890
"[X] Used Mach Punch!"

>>28456962
You switch before they can use MP.

>>28456847
Probably.
Does anyone else think that they're cute?

>>28456847
Why do they have the same name? Will they have different movesets? Will you be able to switch between the two?

>>28456900
>Rock/Fighting
I sure hope so

>>28456979
doesnt matter, they still get the advantage and momentum over you. Makes him nothing but a burden unless he has some ultimate jank

wow the bipedal one looks like shit

>>28456847
If yes then they're the third (or fourth) decently designed rock types after golem and gigalith

>>28456847
I was going to get moon up until this point

>>28457124
They not version exclusive.

>>28456847
I would assume Rock/Normal and Rock/Dark. Probably each one has its own gimmick move to try and make them stand out a little.

>>28457021
Because they evolve into different forms depending on time of day

>>28457124
They're not version exclusive

>>28456847
>sundoge
>it just gets bigger
>moondoge
>actually looks visibly different and more unique

I know which one Im getting.

>>28457021
Nope you can't switch, they evolve depending on the time of day. Probably have different movesets though or the same moveset but it's wide enough to be usable for both.

>>28456940
Rock-Dark is an absurdly good STAB combination, dismissing it for its weakness is like dismissing Weavile for having many weaknesses, despite its incredible coverage and power.

>>28457028
Everyone said the same about Bisharp.

>>28456847
I'm going with Midnight Lugarugan.

Also guess what the English name is going to be.

>>28456847
Night Form is Rock/Dark

Day Form is Rock/Light

>Rock type with fur

>>28457360
2013?

>>28457028

As opposed to what? You're telling me that it if it was regular Rock it was staying in?

>>28457028
>ultimate jank

Fuck off with your shitty Smash terminology, you uninformed fool.

Do you even realize how many pokemon in OU have a 4x weakness? Do you realize that 4x weakness is hardly different than 2x? No, you dont.

>>28456847

>the ugly arms on wereruff

Reminds me of the ugly hands on the Litten evo floating around.

I'm losing hope that it's fake.. Great.

>>28457345

>>28457519
its not smash terminology you mongoloid, most OU mons are able to cover up their strong weaknesses with a decent ability, an insanely high stat, or just a simple coverage move. That's their jank. Whether or not midnight rockruff evo will have something of the sort to counter his weaknesses is still to be seen, but its nice to keep the possibility up

Rock is also widely considered one of the worst types in the game, so it would really take a lot to save him :^)

Ive been wondering. If this is all Rockruff evolves into, why was it rock type to begin with? It's not like this concept had to be a rock dog. I kind of bought into the idea that it'd be related to zcrystals somehow, maybe sniffing them out or otherwise having an affinity for them lore-wise, do maybe the evolution would expand on that. But they're just a wolf and a werewolf with no thematic reason to be rock. They look even less rock type than before. I don't really care all thst much, its just an observation. Not a criticism necessarily.

Rock/Electric?

Wouldn't that be awesome??

>Jank

So you mean, just being good. Being good=/=jank faggot.

>Rock is also widely considered one of the worst types in the game, so it would really take a lot to save him :^)

Bullshit it is. It's a bad defensive type, but a wonderful offensive type, and always has been.

>>28456962
>X being only 5 pokes, only from safari/post game trades
yeah I can live with that.

>>28457838
wat do werewolves and alchemy have to do with each other

>>28456847

They'll be rock/something

The bottom one looks like a wolf in sheep clothing. I'm hoping for a rock/fairy typing, but wouldn't be surprised with rock/dark or rock/fighting. The first one may be rock/normal.

>>28456940
how is rock/normal or rock better than rock/dark. This argument is retarded. Night form will be better by having stab on knockoff, sucker punch etc. It's a shame because night form looks like shit compared to Day version. But try to be fucking reasonable, don't say bullshit like not having stab is better than having. You're delusional and full of shit.

>>28458050
you're oversimplifying what i said. I never said that "not having stab is better than having", i said that not having stab isnt so much of a setback. Knock off is a blatantly good utility move, stab or not (of course if midday evo doesnt get knock off, then this entire argument is irrelevant)

As far as typing goes, I'd much rather have to worry only about bullet punch users. than worrying about both bullet punch and mach punch users. I highly doubt midday evo will be rock/normal, if it were going to be, i feel they would have made rockruff rock/normal instead of pure rock.

>>28458226
Night version will be better that's all. Slightly worse Tyranitar. Day version looks cool but will be restricted to fanservice because competitively will be utter shit.

>>28457405
Its bones,teeth and claws are made of rock

>>28457764

Just said I'm losing hope. I don't want it to be real.

If it's real, oh well. Just want something different. I'm sure it will grow on me like all the others eventually.

Lugargan

From lupus + gargantuan

>>28456847
Leaks were right. AGAIN

>>28458687
To be honest, Pokemon with single type weaknesses don't really care all too much about weak priority. Mach Punch is the least of something like Mega Lucario, Ferrothorn or Kangaskhan's worries.

>>28457360
>Light
You mean fairy? :^)

>>28459355
nope its gonna be normal. It's the only way to make night and day fair. Just look at the 1st totem pokemon
Either way both types will be screwed by fightitng

>it just gets bigger
Not really. Its facial structure is very different and the colors of the hair.

Day: Rock/Normal
Night: Rock/Dark

>>28456900
Fighting would be badass.

>>28459780
>both are 4x weak to fighting
nice.

>>28456847
Didn't it say that the starters and the dog shared a secret? Does it mean that the starters will have a night/day form?

Edgy one looks like shit

other one looks good

>>28457209

>it just gets bigger

Anon please visit a doctor immediately, I think your eyesight is going.

>>28458952
They'll probably look better in their models like most other gen 7 Pokemon, I'd say they did a good job in giving them a lot of personality in their models

Rock and rock/fairy

>>28456962
>thinking rockruff sun can even live a mach punch anyway
>looks frail AF t b h
Also
>what is focus sash

>>28456847
They are Cock type.

>>28456847
Top one is exactly what I wanted out of Rockruff.

>>28456847
>Rock/Fighting
>Rock/Ghost
I can dream.

>>28460215
>ghost
That's as dark as it gets m8

>>28459963
No, they said the starters have a secret as well. Not necessarily the same secret.

>>28460343
could be something alike.

>>28456847

Top: Pure Rock
Bottom: Rock/Dark
