Ribombee's fine, although the humanoid take isn't what I wanted from Cutiefly, I eventually realized that they probably did that because it's supposed to be....y'know....a fairy.

Cutiefly's design is quite solid though. I love the colors.

Bug isn't as bad as it could be. It could easily be weak to Electric and Ice, and Steel. I'm thankful. Plus a few bugs are actually strong.

If I could give just one pokémon a crossgen evolution, it would be Ariados.

Well, no I wouldn't, it would be Magcargo, but Ariados is a close second! It remains our quintessential spider pokémon, and I've been imagining a giant evil-looking Poison/Steel evo for the longest time.

>>31805657
Honestly I think bugs main problem isn't it's resistances but the fact that almost half the types in the game resist it's attack (7) and the ones it's super effective too are some of the less commonly used types (Grass, Psychic, Dark)

Tbqh if i was asked to try and balance bug with changes that still made sense at the least I would start with SE to ground and taking away at least one of the resistances. Maybe poison

Poison is pretty damn cool. I was playing a gen 1 rom hack a few days ago and had completely forgotten that bug and poison were weak to each other.

It's really interesting to me how many bug/steel types exist. You would think metal bugs would be a somewhat limited idea but all of them are cool.

Gen 5 really was a great period for bugs. Gen 4 was kind of meh with them, yanmega was cool and kricketune was charming but johto was where bugs really were at their best prior to unova.

I don't get the hate for golisopod, runs fine for me in monotype and UU. Amazing design and concept, definitely in my top 5 bugs.

Agreed, especially Forettress.

Golisopod is one of my absolute favorites as well, what an excellent design. I also use one and it's great. There is no real "hate" for Golisopod in the game community, the people who don't like it are the smogon mods that dislike people who discuss it outside of UU.

7 generations and we've never gotten a glorious bug eeveelution.

>wanting a type as cool as bug wasted o a dumb dog cat thing
Nah, give us more actual bugs.
>no fly
>no tick (joltik is a spider)
>no earthworm
>no flat worm
All ideas with good ideas with potential. Last thing we need is another eeveelution.
>>
Gen 2 was my favorite for bugs honestly. My team had Ariados, Scizor, Forretress, Heracross, Pinsir, and Venomoth. Shit was cool. I like being a type specialist sometimes.
>>
>>31809855
>no shuckle
It's shit.

Nah but seriously that sounds cool, considering doing a mono bug run myself but not sure what game.
>>
>>31809866
I was at a close tie between Shuckle and Forretress. I wanted mostly offensive Pokemon with one defense guy.
>>
>>31809918
Have to say, shuckle with toxic and sandstorm is a real force to be reckoned with for in game. I had one in a liquid crystal run and while it's slow to kill it never failed to get the job done. Well, at least anything not steel type.

Cool to see another charjabug fan. As cute as grubbin is and as cool as vikavolt is the absolute silliness of charjabug just kills me. I absolutely love this guy. The entire line is phenomenal but the battery bug is my favorite of the three.

The rectangle definitely won me over quickly. I prefer the more sillier pokemon myself, my all time favorite is shuckle, and seeing a battery themed bug with a rectangular body was hilarious to me. As I said,I really like the whole line but charjabug is just so bizarre I can't help but adore it.

Seeing all the fanart of it genuinely brings a smile to my face.

I distinctly remember going over to a friends house with two of our other mates. We played a 2v2, all emerald. Every single mon was either a starter or legendary, as you do at a young age.

Got my absolute shit pushed in every single battle.

Can clearly remember my mistakes (spamming Swamperts surf against kyogre and wondering why it did jack shit), despite it being 12 or so years back, and if I ever get a time machine, smacking young me over the back of the head is on my list of stuff to do.

Ever since HeartGold and SoulSilver I've run mono bug teams. I like that underdog feeling and it's an evem bigger smack in the face when you beat the elite four with them. All of my hall of fames since then display whoever my most badass bugs were at the time.

As of later games i do go for coverage though with secondary typing
Bug and electric/poison/steel/rock/fire/ghost

I like bugs but GF has some obssession with taking a huge dump on the type in general between their horrible base stat total, awkward typecharting and poor coverage, it's like some inside joke with the devs.

I mean far as Bug typing goes there is a far higher frequency of 'WHY DOES THIS THING EVEN EXIST' distributions than with most typings besides Ice because of just how abysmally low their stats are and how awful their typing is.

See, I don't like actual bugs but when it comes to pokemon, I gotta pick Durant. Especially with Hustle, that little monster destroyed most of Unova and Kalos.

If you transfer Scyther from a GBA game to a DS game while he's holding a Metal Coat, he evolves into Scizor, right? Or does it truly only work with trading?

Is that the game where you slingshot the balls out to catch the Pokemon or the one where you go into the safari zone to catch the transferred Pokemon? I've done both of those before.

I just don't remember if transfering also counts as trading.
