Realistically how many gens would it take for a Fire/Fighting

>>31380759
I personally would like for it to be never, not because I dont like the previous one or hate the types, but because I want more variability in the starter's second typings.

I wanna see dragon, ice, buug and electric starters.

>>31380759
there shouldn't be
with how many type combos there are fire fighting is just completely moronic
Emboar could have easily been fire/ground
but no, we gotta make a ton of fire fighting types for unknown reasons

One every other type combination has been explored

>>31380759
Give it five more gens

>>31380795

>Unknown reasons

It's a pretty popular type for kids, they don't wanna see foxes doing psychic things, they want a pokemon that can punch really hard.

>>31380759
Never again. Having three of them in a row has completely soured my opinion of the type combination.

>>31380778
Dragon is 100% not going to happen. It would make it neutral to water which would be an unfair advantage. Also going by zodiac theory dragon is already covered

>>31380841
you think being able to punch the ground so hard it triggers an earthquake isnt what the kiddies want?

>>31380795
Of all the starters, emboar is my biggest disappointment compared to what I had hoped for.

>>31380759
As for this question, only after every other unused combo is covered, and maybe even some crazy fire/fire type.

>>31380759
More gens than the franchise has left in it - talking probably about thirty so that the other types at least get two starters before fighting gets its fourth

>>31380815
>Fire/Grass

>>31380859

In concept, yeah. In the anime or other mediums? Not so much, it can look quite boring while going super fast punching everything or destroying huge boulders with one punch can be more effective for their impressionable minds.

>>31380759
Acceptable? About 30 more gens, after each other type has been used more than once.

>>31380900
>GenV
>Starters are Water/Fire Fire/Grass and Grass/Water

>>31380900
>small creature with ash on back
>medium creature with eucalyptus on back
>big creature with burning eucalyptus on back

That was hard

>>31380877
>More gens than the franchise has left in it
This.

>>31381012
Shit ! Meant GenX !

>>31381031
>Pokemon Millenial Version

>>31380900
A charcoal pokemon would be perfect fire/grass

grass/fairy
fire/steel
water/fighting

bang, you're welcome

I want to see Fire/Fighting as a type combo outside of the damn fire starter for once.

>>31380857
>Also going by zodiac theory dragon is already covered
>people still believe this meme theory

>>31380759
I want another one just so the fanbase gets triggered

I want Fire/Ice sneaky pebbles and >geodude used rock throw be damned.

>>31380857
isn't water/steel neutral to grass?

>>31382152
It also loses the fire resistance and is SE to fighting if I remember right.
Gen 4 was a strange time.

>>31382152
Yes, but it's weak to Ground.

>>31382180
>is SE to fighting
No, Fighting is super-effective against Steel, not the other way around.

>>31382203
>Yes, but it's weak to Ground.

So then just make the water starter Ice or Fairy.

>>31382203
Reading comprehension dude.

>>31380759
I hope the next set is Fire/Electric, Water/Bug and Grass/Rock.

>>31380759

It would've been acceptable as early as Gen VII, just make it SpA based so it has a niche over the other fucking 3 (mostly) physical Fire types.

>>31382387
it would have a niche over literally all fighting types

>>31382433
>what is lucario

>>31381150
>But Fighting doesn't resist Steel!
>WAH WAH WAH

>>31382477
a frail mixed attacker with mediocre speed
There is literally no bulky specially attacking fighting type pokemon.

>>31382500
Lucario says hi

>>31382216
Both of those are neutral against Fire/Dragon. It would have to be either Ground(but Swampert exists), Rock (but kind of a terrible typing) or Dragon (not happening)

>>31382242
Fire/Electric STAB would only be SE vs Water/Bug, whereas the others would have a STAB would be SE vs both remaining starters

>>31382514
lucario is not bulky

>>31382544
Right my bad, I forgot we were talking Fire/Dragon.

>Rock (but kind of a terrible typing)
>implying gamefreak cares

>>31382544
>Dragon (not happening)
But what if all THREE starters were dragons?

>>31382569
>Poliwrath
>Virizion
>Cobalion
>Keldeo

>>31382616
only keldeo works there, although you're still right, there is one other pokemon this theoretical pokemon would share his niche with.

>Water/Ice
Orcha physical attacker with average special. Low speed and good defenses. Good offensive movepool and curse.
>Grass/Bug
Stick bug speedy mixed attacker. Frail. Mostly gets STAB moves
>Fire/Rock
Support tank based off lava rock. Low stats other than defenses. Decent HP. Learns stealth rock, spikes, willowisp, shore up.

Do you rike it?

>>31380759
I'd rather they just drop the f/w/g trio.
That three of the fire starters of seven gens of games are also part fighting is an example of how hard their scraping the bottom of the barrel, and while s/m fire starter isn't part fighting, the thing is another physical mon, is based on wrestlers, and can learn most of the fighting type tms and leanrs cross chop naturally.
Let's face it, it's part dark type because otherwise it would be fighting again and GF would never hear the end of the bitching.

>>31382662
Poliwrath is either bulky Scald+Circle Throw or Specs
Virizion is semi-bulky Calm Mind
Cobalion is special utility with Volt Switch and Flash Canon and sr

>>31380815
Fire/Fairy

tBh i'll take another Fire/Fighting over Fire mono

>>31382683

The one offensive pokemon of the 3 is fast, frail, mixed, and has two 4x weaknesses as well as a multitude of regular 2x weaknesses. Not the biggest fan.
