>Fairy SE against Dark
>Dark SE against Ghost
>Ghost 1x damage against Fairy
How the FUCK is this allowed??
>>29570806
To remind you which is the worst starter
>>29570806
Because Fire cancels out Dark's Fairy weakness.
>>29570806
>implying fairy won't get weakness against ghost this gen
>>29570826
It's already confirmed that there's no type chart change
>>29570846
Source?
>>29570871
Because GF doesn't care about your autism, they simply chose what types they felt most fitting.
They already did the Psy/Dark/Fight triangle last gen anyways. The only other one that works is Rock/Fly/Fight, and I'm sure that GF is aware that people are sick of fighting type starters
>>29570899
How do I read this?
I'm assuming 4 is normal, 2 is not effective and 8 is double damage?
>>29570806
Fire=>Grass=>Water
Dark=>Ghost==Fairy
Call me when those flow charts flow in opposite cycles...
Otherwise, this is 100% a nonissue that only autists care about.
Ghost is already incredibly strong. You do realize only Normal and Dark resist it, right? Ghost pairs with almost any type perfectly.
>>29570911
Rock/Ground/Ice would be a fun one.
>muh reverse triangle!
who cares it's needlessly restrictive to say that needs to be the case
>>29571142
>Ice starter
>>29570806
Because Grass is good against Water.
>Mfw most Water types learn Ice Beam as well.
>>29570806
Incineroar isn't weak to Dark because it's part Fire.
Game Freak doesn't give a fuck about a double triangle, they just pick whatever type makes the most sense for the Pokemon.
>>29573169
>Incineroar isn't weak to Fairy because it's part Fire.
FTFY
>>29571430
>Implying that Ice isn't a good offensive type as long as you're fast
>>29571142
Grass/Rock, Fire/Ice, Water/Ground?
Or
>>29570911
I'd take a Water/Fighting starter
>>29575128
That'd be amazing, yes.
>>29570911
>The only other one that works is Rock/Fly/Fight
Grass/Ground/Poison
Fire/Steel/Rock
>>29575176
What designs would you go for?
Fire/Ice would be themed around absorbing the heat from its surroundings then releasing it for its Fire attacks
Fighting and Ground are both strong to Steel
>>29570911
Grass/Fire
Fire/Water
Water/Grass
Somebody stop me I'm a madman
Fire/fighting, grass/ground, water/steel. Yeah starters always have a 2nd type that goes in a circle. Gen 1 did too.
>>29575128
>Grass/ROCK will have a 4x advantage over fire/ice
Yeah not happening
>>29575234
The problem with those is that they use Grass and Fire, if we're talking about the standard Grass, Fire, and Water starters, they're most likely not going to use either as a subtype.
This isn't even a fucking pattern, the only time they ever did this was last gen.
>>29575353
Isn't ice quad effective on Grass/Rock?
> Primarina's Fairy is strong against Greninja's Dark
> Incineroar's Dark is strong against Delphox's Psychic
If Decidueye kept the Flying type it would also be strong against Chesnaught's secondary typing
>>29575860
ITS NOT FUCKING FAIR
WHY IS IT ALWAYS DECIDUEYE
>>29570806
Honestly, I like Ghost more than Steel or Poison.
I'll just beat faggy Popplio with Grass moves. Don't need Ghost.
>>29577676
>inb4 Primarina gets Sap Sipper as its HA
Let's be honest, we don't want Ghost type because it's 1x to fairy, but because it gives us immunity to Normal and Fighting. Too bad it doesn't exactly give us any SE's other than to Ghost.
That being said, at least this gen doesn't have an overflow of 4x weaknesses and in fact each Starter is immune to at least one type.
>>29578134
>Too bad it doesn't exactly give us any SE's other than to Ghost.
Psychic
>>29578196
Oh yeah that too.
>>29570911
COUGH. Ice/Fighting/Flying
>>29578844
>Ice/Fighting/Flying
>fire starter gets the fighting type
>>29570806
Maybe Decidueye gets thunder? Or a new ghost move that is super effective against fairy types.
Point is, it remains to be seen.
>>29578844
Ice doesn't resist Flyingsadly
>>29575157
Fire/Steel, Water/Fighting and Grass/Fairy could be a cool trio for the next generation.
Fire/Steel one could be physically oriented to differentiate it from Heatran and the Water/Fighting one could be pirate themed to act as a rival to Greninja.
