How is this nigga not a Ghost-type?
Because he can't manipulate shadows the sheer extent that Decidueye can.
>>29544999
Because he's not extinct.
>muh fossils
Not owls.
You cannot overcome my resplendent logic.
I think Psychic was just more fitting but it easily could have been. I'm sure they thought about it when they made it long ago.
They should at the very least remove its flying type.
looks like a grass type to me, owls live in trees like birds
>>29544999
>ghost
the fuck?how is he not a psychic type? psychic/flying
>>29545014
>Decidueye
what kind of retarded name is that how do you even pronounce that?
>>29544999
I agree should've been normal/flying
>>29545134
Dee-sid-you-eye
Like deciduous trees
>>29544999
it took me years to realize it's not psychic
because gamefreak loves to cuck its pokemon especially those in gen 2
what's new
Is this Owl on the alolan dex? I really want to use one for in-game shenanigans.
He was the anti-ghost. A normal type that could attack but not be attacked by ghost types in gen 2 made Morty easy.
You do know Noctowl due to typing match up could technically kick Decidueye's ass right?
>>29544999
Memes aside, this is really not an issue. He's said to be very intelligent and has a ton of psychic moves, so if he had picked up a new second typing it would have been psychic anyway.
However, this was way back in gen 2 and their normal/flying pattern for my mom's birds was still in full swing.

at last I truly see. i understand you ash
OH MY GOD I literally can be pretty obsessed with Pokémon, (like not at an autistic level to where it is all I will talk about like I'm still a unnerdy regular attractive person) so when I say I know everything about it I really do but for some reason I had forgotten Noctowl was a normal/flying type. I guess I got it confused with Xatu and thought it a psychic/flying what the fuck.
>>29545231
How do you figure? Typing aside, Decidueye almost definitely has a better movepool and BST.
He's not based no an extinct animal.
Fossil pokemon are prehistoric, that's a different kind of extinct.
Why are people on this board refuse to think for just two seconds before posting?

>>29545231
Noctowl's offense is shit, so the only thing it could do is wall it.
If grass owl is a special attacker then noctowl would shit on it. noctowl has night shade so it doesn't have to worry about it's shit offenses.
>>29545555
Its signature move is physical and it's an arrow, so there's that.
>>29545134
fucking americans
>>29545402
Those ain't it's stats
>>29545588
it's a ghost type move though
>>29545644
Those are Noctowl's yes, but you can clealy see just how terrible its offenses are. And when your most strongest offensive move that can do damage to a Grass type is not BB, but Sky Attack, then you know you fucked up somewhere.
>>29545044
I imagine it was at some point, but then I guess they realized that they had Xatu and also Lugia as Flying/Psychic in Gen 2 and Noctowl got the cut.
Really Lugia shouldn't be Psychic and Noctowl should be and could have been a counterpart to the Xatu line. Day/Night or even version exclusives.
>>29545134
How is it possible for there to be this many retards that don't know how to pronounce "deciduous"?
>>29546983
Blame the American school system
>>29547005
Hey, I'm an American Public School victim and even I knew how to pronounce that.
>>29545674
