Kill yourselves, please.
>>28777352
Gyarados is Water/Flying you dummie.
Ground Dark and Dragon.
It's a freaking Sauropod, why did it dodge the freaking dragon typing. And an Alligator without stab crunch...Fucking ridiculous.
Seriously people that want stab dragon on Feraligator don't realize his HA only works on Dragon Rush and Dragon breath, stab crunch is superior if you ever want this thing to be a great offensive Pokemon, outrage while strong locks you on a move and d meteor is a mixed bag.
Seriously only Meganium makes good use of Dragon here with its moveset and base stats.
>>28777037

>>28777459
Does Feraligatr even get a fighting move boosted by sheer force? It only get Focus blast, superpower and brick break if I recall.
Giving it a fighting type movepool without upgrades on its moveset would be incredibly stupid, it can't use its secondary stab! It's not worse than Flareon not getting Flare blitz, but it's still bad.
>>28777352
Only Mega Gyardos has Water/Dark, anon. You don't complain about Sharpedo being like Gyarados too, don't you anon?

>>28776978
For Typhlosion, the answer is obvious. Fire/Ground. It has eruption and I think it's supposed to have a theme with volcanoes. Plus Fire/Ground is too good of a typing to be wasted on Camerupt.
Meganium is Grass/Fairy because it has a brighter, more coloful look to it. 4x weakness to poison won't matter since poison is still a shit offensive type and won't be seen outside of stab.
Feraligatr is Water/Dark to make good use of that stab Crunch.
>>28777549
Why on earth people want to give fighting to Feraligatr? Sheer force focus blast? Stab Superpower?
Those are basically the only decent moves it gets.
Think of Altaria being fairy dragon on mega, both stabs are stupidly redundant. It like having a fairy that resist water fire and electric but is weak to poison and steel. It can't fucking use dragon moves outside of Draco Meteor as its fairy moves are just superior.
This is what you get with water fighting Feraligatr, a pokemon that hits Ferrothorn and air Ballon Empoleon a bit harder.

Leave'em as is. If they get Megas:
Fire/Ground (Join the volcano club with Numel and Camerupt)
Water/Dragon (Seems like every Mega-Starter trio is getting a dragon type, may as well give a water/dragon to fill out Sceptile and Charizard's grass/fire)
Grass/Fairy (Fairy typing might be able to help fix Meganium, a 4X weakness hopefully won't be too much of a hindrance)
>>28777649
Cuz he looks like a brawler and that's what I was basing my decision on. He looks more like a fighting type than anything else, other than water.
Fire/Dark
Water/Steel
Grass/Fairy
Typhlosion because why not. Ferlaigatr I would imagine him with steel armor on him look at the pads already on him. Then Meganium because of the antennas and it just feels right.
>>28777696
Tell me how does Feraligatr improves ingame with a fighting type?
It now resist Bugsy fury cuter and Miltank rollout.
Fucking great, face it, in competitive it sucks concept wise, ingame it manages to suck even harder.
But seriously you little retard, tell me how you make use of altaria Dragon stabs in VGC, tell me what do you win with Altaria Dragon stabs in game? This thing gets EQ and Fireblast to hit what resist fairy hard already.
So tell me how is that an Smogon thing? Or are you retarded enough to not understand how types work?

not sure why people want dark or fighting for feraligatr
>>28777965

cause it learns Crunch and Bite they are Dark Moves. I think it can learn Dark Pulse too.

so? Dark secondary type fits rather well for Gatr.
>>28777962
He said Better not worse, how does fighting make a pokemon with sheer force and only 3 fighting type moves better, the only one that gets sheer force boost is focus blast.
You just gave it a defensive typing vs bug dark and rock while giving him a weakness to fairy flying and psychic.
Dark Fire is interesting though, it's great neutral coverage for ingame, although ground goes ridiculously great with fire on a fast pokemon dark is no slouch either.

Fine, water/dragon or dragon like everyone else said
And about typhlosion I dont know how many types beside dark/ground you can put on a mole/bear hybrid with a volcano on his back
>>28778169
Ups mean to say dark or dragon
>>28777915
Shit, dude, you're serious about this, ain'tcha? Awright, let me explain.
Ingame pokémon is not about being as powerful as possible. That's not just impractical, it's pointless. It's about being powerful _enough_ - and being powerful enough is pretty damn easy. If a mon is made weaker by its typing, or if it gets some redundant STABs, the game isn't going to be significantly affected - usually. You'd have to make a really good argument as to why one mon's typing is really important to a particular game.
Nobody is basing their decisions on what makes a mon more or less powerful. They're basing them off of what the mons look and act like. I don't think Feraligatr looks like a fighting-type, but the other anon does, and so he suggested that it could be water/fighting.
When I said ">>>/smogon/," what I mean is that you're being a smogonfag.
>>28778025
> He said Better not worse,
First up, learn some grammar. Second, no, the OP did not even imply that we have to make the mons better. Get some reading comprehension skills.
>>28776978
Typhlosion: Fire/Normal as it has alot of normal moves so give it a reasonable stab
Feraligator: Water/Fighting as Feraligator Seems to be one hell of a brawler so it makes enough sense
Meganium: Grass/Dragon because it gives decent enough resistances i guess
>>28777946
Lol what a fucking faggot, i bet you like darkrai too
>>28776978
Typhlosion - Fire/Ground. Volcano theme.
Feraligatr - Water/Fighting. Strongman theme.
Meganium - Grass/Psychic. Aroma therapy theme.
>>28777040
If you want them to continue to be useless (expect Feraligatr of course).
>>28778249
Speaking objectively water fighting is terrible for current Feraligatr, as without movepool expansions he is fucked with only a defensive typing to use.
Speaking for headcanon flavor wise, hey let's give Meganium grass ice, because fuck yeah! It's a strong offensive typing and it could get ice beam and Blizzard!!!
Realistically speaking, even mons ingame can be fucked up royaly by their typing. Slow ice types, slow fire ground and fire rock, frail bugs without enough offensive fire power, defensive rock ground and grass ice can make for shity Pokémon, heck Exeggutor with grass psychic fell HARD from grace on gen 3,lets never forget how hard his fall from its status as best grass type was.
Water Fighting isn't terrible, Poliwrath is really fucking good, but this doesn't really translate to Feraligatr, I also forgot about focus punch and Dynamic punch BTW.
Sheer force focus blast and dynamic punch FTW!
Dragon or Dark are competent enough typings, they don't overlap with water and you get accessible moves to abuse ingame with a decent set of neutralities.
>>28776978
None. They're the only pure type starters. They're fine as is.
>>28778417
Dude, I'm currently using a Sandslash in LeafGreen, in which it doesn't learn any ground-type attacks by level up. I'm enjoying the fuck out of it. I'm sure nobody will complain if a water/fighting 'mon only gets a few fighting-type attacks. Alternatively, we can imagine that we're expanding the mons' movepools at the same time as we change their typing. It's not much of a stretch at all.
Also,
> unironically using all those exclamation points and "FTW"
2010 called. They want you back.
>>28777378
But muh fairies
make him Water/Poison and give him Poison Fang and Poison Jab for the hilarity of it
>>28777649
Because Water/Dark is boring as fuck. He has decent bulk and I'd personally not want Dark to ruin that. Making him Fighting is a bit different, gives him a fairly unique typing, and helps him out somewhat coverage-wise since he already carries Superpower most of the time.
>>28778001

My little 10 year old brother made a crude drawing of what mega johto starters would be. Typhlosion, would be fire/dark, feraligtr would be water/ice, and magamium was grass/dragon. I thought his idea was pretty cool, I especially like how he made feraligatr, he replaced his dorsal fins with icicles.

What about abilities for megas?
Typhlosion - Aftermath or something explodey
Feraligatr - Use all the mega stat boosts on defence and then give it huge power. Weeeeeshhhh
Meganium - Magic bounce and boosted defences. Make it a big old superwall.

I really don't understand this. What about Feraligatr hints at it even being a fighting type? It's almost always about biting. Last time I checked, biting is not acceptable on most martial arts. Sure it learns a few fighting moves but really, even Pinsir learns a lot more and it's not part-fighting. Strongman theme? Swampert already tried that and failed.

I always liked that they were all pure type. I'd give them Megas that expand on this somehow. Ability that triples STAB in exchange for .75 multiplier to non-STAB, perhaps?
