Haven't been here a lot recently, so has it been realized

Not only did they do the typing wrong, but they also put the wrong number of each in the game; Two Buzzwole, Four Pheromosa. Four Kartana, Two Celesteela. Why the FUCK did they do this? Doing UB04 for UB04 is fucking impossible for Sun players.

Imagine if they did swap how much they would be shit

>>30700758
lmao gf what u been smokin bruh

No, the mess-up was not making Xurkitree electric/grass.

>Celesteela
>based on the Kaguya myth
>flies to the moon
>is a flying type

>Kartana
>literally origami
>origami is made from paper
>paper is made from trees
>is a grass type

You're just uneducated.

>>30700698
It was intentional probably cause of this>>30700766

and also there's that "not what you expected" effect

>>30700698
>>30700766
Oddly, the movepools reflect this "wrong" typing with Air Slash on Celesteela and Leaf Blade on Kartana

Celesteela flies through her rockets, and Kartana is paper, which come from trees, hence the grass type. And what part of Celesteel makes you think grass? The bamboo arms? Fuck off with your dragon type Charizard

>>30700758
So why not trade a UB 2 for the mother's UB 4 or the reverse

How would the Meta change if Celesteela got the correct type?

Would Ferrothorn be obsolete?

You're fucking retarded. Celesteela is flying because she's a rocket, Kartana is grass because it's an origami. The typings are the right ones

>>30700758
youre supposed to do 2 for 4 you baka

>>30700698
their typings are intentional jokes
>unlike ub02, theyre mismatched
>the movesets
>they both look like they could be the others typing or even steel/grass
not saying it was executed well, but its fully intentional that their typings are fucked up

>>30700801
Mice are nocturnal so I'm sure Pikachu is a Dark type.

>>30700698
>20ft Rocket ship is steel
>Paper origami is grass
Seems fine to me familam.

>>30700698
I never understood why everyone though Celesteela would be grass type. Because of superficial resemblance to bamboo? Well, it's not supposed to be bamboo so please end the fucking meme.

>>30700849
Dark has nothing to do with being nocturnal.

Dig that hole deeper.

>>30700849
Mice are mammals retard.

>>30700849
Dark is evil, not night

>>30700884
good point, Pikachu should be Ground type because mice dig their tunnels

>>30700879
30 ft actually

>a piece of paper
>not grass
>a rocket
>not flying
Stop this meme

>>30700814
Kartana knows Air Slash too stupid. It's literally one of the first moves on it when you first encounter it

>>30700801

It can also be intepreted the other way

>Celesteela
>based on the legend of Princess Kaguya
>found sleeping in bamboo
>Bamboo is actually grass
>learns a lot of Grass Type moves
>is not a grass type

>Kartana
>resembles traditional Shinto wedding origami
>Shinto wedding origami resembles butterflies
>butterflies are capable of flight
>Kartana constantly levitates
>not flying type

While either way works, from a mechanic standpoint, it's better to give the glass cannon the 4x weakness and the stall princess no 4x weaknesses.

>>30700887
lmao this nigga

>>30700698
-Kartana combines the elements of 'paper' with 'katana'
-Paper is made out of fibres of pulp derived from wood and grass.
-A Katana is a japanese blade, often made out of steel.

-Celesteela combines 'rocket propulsion' and 'celestial bodies'
-SHE'S A FUCKING SPACESHIP YOU DIMWIT

Seems legit.

>>30700758
Remember when Sunfags were gloating about their exclusives

It makes perfect sense that the thing made of paper would be x4 weak to fire.

>>30700935
Your way works, but takes a lot more gymnastics

Sorry but that sword made of paper made of trees reference is too obvious.

>ctrl+f 'shuttle'

Did everyone in this thread have a collective aneurysm and forget what a space shuttle is called?

Sun still has the best exclusives.

The UBs in both are all good, though.

>>30701886
what about grass made of grass

>>30703250
Celesteela is a plain spaceship that fires shit.
Her jap name is Tekkaguya even, aka gunfire + Kaguya.

>just want a careful celesteela
>All I get are kids trading me the dumbest shit and idiots trading pheremosas for buzzwole instead of Kartana

>>30703299
yeah,
spaceship = steel
bamboo = grass
-> Steel/Grass

Katana = steel
Paper = flying (it literally is flying in the games)
-> Steel/Flying


Still, as >>30701019
>>30700935
said, much better decision mechanics-wise to have Celesteela as Steel/Flying

So of the Ultra Beasts, the motifs are:

Nihilego- Metroid+Meth

Buzzwole- Mosquito, but with guy traits. Muscles+Blood.

Pheromosa- Cockroach, but with girl traits. Skeleton.

Xurkitree- Christmas lights and artificial tree

Kartana- Artifact spirit made of paper.

Celesteela- Kayuga + Rocket

Guzzlord- Black hole + Krampus

?

>>30703433
>Kartana is flying therefore it's flying instead of being grass despite its design making sense with grass
>Celesteela is flying but the typing is grass because I say so

You win, think whatever you want. I'd have better success in teaching a wall to speak german than dealing with you autists.

>>30700922

They're alien tropes:
>Brain parasites
>Bug people
>Cybernetic lifeforms like Transformers
>Aliens that look human like Princess Kaguya
>2D lifeforms like Flatland or the Mooninites
>Cosmic horrors

>>30704247
>>Cybernetic lifeforms like Transformers
Huh?
Looks more like electrical cords than transformer.

>>30704160
you're getting something mixed up here, dude.
Celesteela is propulsing, not flying. Kartana is a "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee" origami that is flying like Jumpluff and Gligar, for instance. Gliding is contained in GF's idea of flying, because it involves wind and air currents. Propulsion is not "flying" in the same sense that Golurk is Ground/Ghost and not Flying.
And in which world is paper closer to Grass than actual grass?
In your autismo world, that's where.

The current types work for both of them, but the switched constellation would make even more sense, although it would be worse for the game.
Also, it's just logical that Paper really hates Fire.

>>30704084
Nihilego is vanity, self-absorbedness and immortality

>>30704247
>30 foot human

I'm okay with this

>>30704388
Nihilego is none of that. Is lacks the ability to act outside of attaching to host and powering it up so that it will defend Nihilego out of its own self-preservation.

>>30704388
Oh, so that would explain why Jigglypuff is flying type. Thanks for clearing that up!

>>30703433
You.... are you retarded?
It's not bamboo, they're rockets.
Steel/Fire still makes more sense than Steel/Grass

And paper = flying?? What, like a leaf in the wind?? PAPER COMES FROM GRASS YOU IDIOT. What is wrong with your brain? Jesus fucking christ

This better be bait, cause if you're not about to say you were only pretending to be retarded, I'll get so fucking triggered.

>Sex and the city
How do I go back to the Sex in the City reality?

Why are Shelmet and Dwebble bug types while Drapion and Kingler aren't?

Why complain about the in-universe logic of alien typings? They're supposed to feel somewhat off, but they're not completely off to the point that they feel random.

I can understand complaining about some of the UB types from a meta standpoint: Xurkitree's is boring and Guzzlord's is terrible.

>>30704530
nihilist + ego
it stands for being hollowed out by one's self-absorbedness
Lusamine made it pretty clear with the dialogue written for 7-year-olds to understand

>>30704553
Leech Seed and paper planes

>>30704646
What else would Xurk be?

>>30704718
Electric/Grass or Electric/Steel

>>30704718
Electric/Grass?

>>30704358
That was just an example of cybernetic lifeforms.

Why does everyone understand that Celesteela is a Kaguya reference, but nobody gets that Kartana is a Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi reference?

>>30704879
Because the Kaguya myth is much more popular and well known. It even got a Ghibli movie.

>>30704879
So you should name your Kartana Lawnmower?

>>30704879
makes it even weirder that they gave it the Grass type, then. As a grass cutter it should at least be effective against the bamboo

>>30704976
>Doesn't beat itself nor Celesteela because Grass is fucking shit
This is Lurantis v. bug-type all over again

Guzzlord - your mom

Everything else is correct

>Doing UB04 for UB04 is fucking impossible for Sun players.
what?
i may be slow, but even with context clues this sentence makes no sense.

>>30705165
Market value

Buzzwole - Pheromosa
Pheromosa - Buzzwole
Celesteela - Buzzwole
Kartana - a hearthy laugh

>>30704879
Kusanagi-no-who?

The Moon Princess is a thing in China too. Of course it's more popular.

>>30705165
Kartana has less trade value than Celesteela (4 Kartana per save file vs 2 Celesteela) and lots of people don't do their research and traded their extra Buzzwole for a Pheromosa.

>>30705165
The person is upset rarity in-game and catch rates has Buzzwole(UB-02) = Celesteela (UB-04) instead of Buzzwole = Pheromosa (UB-02) despite their codename numbers.

>>30705165
UB04 is a different ultrabeast in Sun than it is in Moon. Anon is saying that trading a Kartana for a Celesteela is impossible.

What's your point?

>>30704645
>Kingler
Excuse me

>>30705681
my point is that arbitrary exceptions don't mean anything.
Chimecho is an oddball and bears no significance when debating what types Pokémon look like.

>>30706033
A Pocket Monster based on a crab with a hard shell and segmented limbs.

>>30706102
You literally just said crab. Why would it be a bug - crustaceans are different from arthropods

>>30700826
too logical

>>30706355
uh.... crustaceans are arthropods

>>30706355
Crustaceans are arthropods. The other point was that Dwebble is also a crab motif, and is a bug-type.

>>30701006
Design-wise Sun has overall best UBs

Buzzwole>>>>>>>>>>>>>shit>Pheromosa
Celesteela>Kartana

>Bug-type
>Only like 7 of them are even actual bugs

>>30706571
"Bug" Type really actually means "arthropod", but I guess that's a bit long

>>30706530
Yeah I love epic redditbugbro!!
le dyel xD DAB

>>30706355
Insects are more closely related to crustaceans than arachnids and myriapods.

>>30706756
strictly speaking, if you want to use the term "crustaceans" in an evolutionary sense, insects ARE (derived) crustaceans.

>>30704084
Xurkitree = Circuitry

>>30700698
It's flying because it's a rocket.

It's grass because it's paper. Which is from trees.

Nice autism though, here's a (You)

>>30700758
Same to (You)

>>30706475
>>30706480
>>30706756
Meant to say insect, not arthropod. But the point being, crabs are more closely associated with water, aren't they?
