jesus fucking christ, i hate this board
Ampharos became a Dragon because of a pun, too.
Sun/Moon are obviously assigning types more freely. /vp/ just needs to calm down
>>29503473
Don't worry about them OP, they're just faggots who got BTFO when they found the water starter they were going to pick turned into shit.
Denialfags got blown the fuck out so they have to finds new things to complain about.
>>29503473
Why do think that the same people say those things you dumbfuck?
>>29503473
>>29503548
What puns?
>>29503548
I for one like types being more open ended. It gives the chances for more unique type combos when GF doesn't have to stick to "all fire types are red in hue and on fire" or "ghost types have to be spoopy spirits" etc
>>29503473
>pun
Nice strawman you fucking retard.
Exeggutor has plenty of reptilian features to justify its dragon type. Alolan is basically an exaggerated brontosaurus with two legs.

there were some spelling mistakes in the original post, wanted to fix those
>>29504217
>long neck
Ah yes, the giraffe is a fine example of a reptile.
>rough skin
wut
>multiple heads evoke a hydra
They're more evocative of a Hindu god.
>>29504256
too bad. deal with your fucking spelling mistakes you dyslexic gecko bitch
>>29503548

Say that to all the mono-type shitmons like Tsaarena, Lurantis and Crabrawler

It's shown to have an insanely diverse movepool. And it evolves into an ice type
>>29504363
>it's a defensive ice type
>>29504384
Offensive based, actually
>>29504281
>cherrypicking
Yes the long in combination with his other features gives a saurian look. Its bark skin is comparable to rough reptilian skin. It's a fine and logical interpretation of a draconic plant, more on the plant than dragon side compared to something like sceptile.
Now tell me where the fuck you see ghost in decidueye's design.
>>29504489
>bark skin
Wouldn't it be more comparable to a dog then?
> not a stretch at all
10/10 pun
>>29504489
let me guess, you're a zodiac fag too? or a baliofag as well?
>>29504592
Zodiacfag here and even I can tell that this guy is reaching way too hard just so he can be upset about Decidueye
>>29503473
>Dude Kingdra is just a dragon because of a pun, not a stretch at all
>Dude, Flygon is just a dragon because of a pun, not a stretch at all
not to mention other non-dragon dragons like Garchomp

Hydreigon

Tyrantrum

The only dragons that are actually dragons are the Dragonite line and Salamence

>>29504648
>Implying dragons are birds
>>29504751
Now that's a cloud that dragons if I've ever seen one
>>29504693
there's a turtle dragon?
>>29504785
Yes ?
>>29503473
They're just mad that it doesn't have a x4 Weakness to Ice like we thought it did.
>>29504806
I guess I missed that it was a dragon, I thought it was pure fire. I actually like it more now. At first I thought it was just a shitty torkoal clone.
>>29504751
Birds are LITERALLY reptiles.
>>29504806
>We call it, the TURTONATOR
>>29504840
It uses Dragon Pulse in the trailer nigga you blind?
>>29504592
No, but epic deflection bro.
>>29504849don't let a christian hear you say that
>>29504648
Fuck u western dragons
It's a jap game
The only thing close to a dragon is rayquaza
>>29504849
Birds are descended from suborder Theropoda, which had reptilian traits, but were warm-blooded and had fast metabolisms.
>>29503473
What about the Anons who only think ONE of those things? I mean, at least A-Exeggcutor is based on a dragon tree, and if you stretch and squint for a bit, it kinda looks like a dragon with its long neck and tail? I donno. All Decidueye has is its lore reason, which my brain will not let me accept no matter how hard I try, because it seems like it'd make sense for a Ghost/Rock fossil Pokemon or something. I mean, GF could've at least given it more ghost-like visual cues or something. Perhaps it'll be able to phase out or levitate or something in the anime. I'm not too fussed over it though; I'd use in a playthrough.
>>29504928
What about Drampa?
>>29503473
dragon/fairy pokemon that's literally just a realistic drawing of a dog when?
>>29503473
I've seen a lot of people asking for Noctowl to be part Ghost, because owls are creepy night not-birds meme. And now we got a Ghost owl, everyone is a fucking douchbag with cum in its mouth.
>>29504489
its a palm tree. it;s even got coconuts. its not a fucking dragon tree
>>29504091
>>29504228
Every grass starter is based off an extinct animal. Why aren't they all ghost?
They're pokemon fans, what do you expect?
>>29504806
>WHY IS THIS FIRE BREATHING REPTILE A DRAGON

It's just mad luchalittenfags because they wanted their homosex tiger to take the spotlight. Same people who kept spamming "lul >x4 weak to Ice" meme prior to the reveal
