That was the most screentime Ho-Oh has ever gotten in any form of anime, wasn't it?

Since platinum they pretty much tackle with this problem. Most of gym leader's mon has better than average type coverage.

In Kalos unless you pick Squirtle or Bulbasaur you're gonna have a bad time.

Missed opportunity of the century.

Take a look at the rosters of Colo/XD villains.
They're full of pseudo legends and legendaries.

For as great as HGSS was, it hardly fixed GSC's problems.

>>28993908
I'd be disappointed, but Aqua got grimer for water pollution and magma got koffing for land/ we couldn't use trubbish pollution. They could've at least given the admins side water/ ground lines though.

>>28994538
>implying
you can pick up an Eevee and a Water Stone before the Rock type gym, and there's a bunch of Ground and Fighting types around Ambrette

>>28994538
Except it's one of the easiest regions yet.

I'm pretty sure he only carries tackle, harden, and bide.
Just growl until he does one damage and use ember every turn that bide isn't active.

Thank you, BW2 and XY.

The team I had when I beat the third gym was the team i had when i beat the elite four

>>28993908
Magma still got screwed, as there's still not enough Fire types to choose from in Hoenn. All that teasing of Houndoom in the anime and Adventures is for nothing it seems.

Aqua however has no excuse on why they didn't get more water types in Water:the region

>>28994077
lewd

>>28994077
Fire type E4 member in Diamond & Pearl.

His team:
Infernape
Rapidash
Steelix
Lopunny
Drifblim

>>28998682
> camerupt is part ground
> literally 0 magma grunts use sandshrew or trapinch
why tho?

>>28998874
That example is notorious
Why couldn't they have just added more fire types before the E4? They had 3 other generations to pull from. They fixed it for Platinum but still holy shit.

>>28998874
>>28998916
Hoenn is also guilty of this but at least Flannery is an early gym leader. But then, nobody in Hoenn uses someone from the vulpix line. Ever.

>>28993884
All 2 of them

>>28994399
No but don't you get it? More Pokemon means more challenge, every time, no matter the team.

>>28994128
>the theme of evil team is posion

>>28998682
Magma is s ground based team. Not fire.

>Not even fucking misdreavus

>>28999358
Uh no. A trainer with one adequately levelled Pokémon, items, a good moveset and AI will be more challenging than a team of under levelled shitmon.

>>28993744
That's why Cipher is one of the best villainous team if not the best.

>>28998682
>Fire
TM used mainly ground types because of Groudon. They also used Baltoys in Emerald.
