Defend this.
>>695185512Scolipede sexo
>>695185512Bugs are cool.
they're so shit but scissor and heracross are cool
The reason it's the worst type is because they made too many cool Bug Pokemon so they had to make them shitty in order to prevent everyone from using them>Bee warrior with giant dual spears>Crab that literally has its life sucked out of it and turned into a zombie by a parasite mushroom>Mantis reptile with giant scythes (which evolves into a cool mecha version with pincer claws)>Motherfucking Shuckle>Giant rhino beetle that suplexes shit>Literally a haunted rotting corpse of shedded skin>Giant horse centipede that curls up into a ball and steamrolls stuff like a giant rollie pollie>Hermit crab with a giant landmass on his back that he picks up and throws at shit>Electric tarantula>Flaming tiger lily sun moth>A literal fucking railgun beetle>Giant mecha isopod>Straight up just a tokusatsu ninjaSo many good ones
>>695185512Our HEROES...and Ledian
>>695185512>>695185740thispokemon is one of the only franchises to have plappable bugs
>>695186414Bug Fables and Hollow Knight exist
I still maintain that bug should resist fairy and 2x to fairy since cute and majestic creatures always get grossed out by bugs. Pokemon needs more Fairy hate.
>always though the Bug Pokemon were cool but they usually weren't viable aside from meme strats>now there's a lot of decent Bug Pokemon but all of their designs are fucking trash
>>695185512Smash barely represents Bug Pokémon, Kleavor would be a cool addition from Legends Arceus specifically https://youtu.be/eYY0cz67fiw
>>695186696fairy was just made to shit on dragon cause dragon was #1, but now fairy is #1 and there's not enough checks and balances to knock it off the top spot>>695186725I also find this to be a moderate grievance.
>>695186875Fairy was a mistake and I'm tired of every retarded autist adding it to every rom hack. If I want Fairy then I'll play gen 6 and on. It doesn't need to be in FUCKING everything.
>>695185512SIR YES SIR!
>>695186725heracross, volcarona, scizor, and lokix are all strong and cool special mention to araquanid as well
>>695185512scizor, heracross and scyther look really cool, so it gets a pass
>>695186725All the decent bugs look good though.
>>695185512Fifth gen onward they got good.
>>695185512>bug legendariesNeat.I was thinking that it's surprising that there's not a 'Japanese Hornet'-esque one, but then I realised that's pretty much fucking Beedrill.
>>695185512Why? There are plenty of good bug types. Maybe the bug types YOU want to be good just aren't, but there is a litany of excellent choices. Pheromosa is insane all around, Forretress is a premier hazard setter, scizor is an absurdly bulky sweeper, shedinja completely counters one of the most meta-relevant legendaries in pokemon history (kyogre), ribombee is the fastest sticky web setter that exists. Durant unfortunately was only good in gen 8 but he leveraged thr Dmax gimmick better than almost anyone. Like damn.
>>695185512I have a better one for you.Defend playing pokemon as a man.
>>695188665I don't play Pokemon, I just fap to the monsters.
>>695186696>cute and majestic creatures always get grossed out by bugsYour aim is correct, but the arguments you provide are the wrong ones.
>>695186835kleavor was a fantastic concept turned into an absolutely terrible designits arms and midsection are so thin that it doesn't look like it can support its own weight>muh smash roster autism>muh representationfuck off
>>695189304The foreshortening on the official art will always bug the shit out of me.
>>695185512You really mean to tell me that after several decades, their best attempt at a scorpion is Skorupi/Drapion?Literally one of the most coolest and most unique insects ever and the best they can do is that ugly thing.How easy would it be to make something fun like a cannon-tailed bug/steel tank, or a traditional poison/bug but with a higher emphasis on defense and attack
>>695189304I mean, when you look at real bugs shit is fucking crazy.
>>695190085Well, no, there's also these guys. Though they're a mix of a bat, a scorpion and a scorpionfly.
>>695190172Pass,they're too absurd to look like a scorpion, as is Drapion
>>695190198I did say they're a mix of three animals put together.
>>695190172>based on a scorpion >not a bug type>or even a poison type>but a ground type of all thingsI mean it was more viable for it, but I struggle to see the logic.
>>695185512Kings and queens.
>>695185512Best type in the game. Has an actual theme, weaknesses and strengths. And the pokemon usually look like real creatures instead of plushies
>>695191025Even stranger is that it's only in the Bug egg group so it can only mate with Bug types.
>>695190198Skorupi looks fucking awesome. Drapion shouldn't exist.
>>695185512Ariados is a cutie and I wish we got more spidermons, Spidops is dogshit and I'm mixed on araquanid. Galvantula is great though.As for fixing the type just give them actual BSTs and 90% of the problems go away. The fact that there have been successful bug mons show that the type isn't inherently unsalvagable, it's that mons with <400 BST literally can't compete against 600 BST mons. Anything, not just bugs, below the 500 mark is going to struggle without some cheeky gimmick, and below 450 it's practically impossible.And I guess reverse the bug/fairy interaction.
>>695191337>Spidops is dogshit
>>695191650>dude cumfeet lmao
>>695185512Bugs are my favourite type. I added golisopod to my collection recently :)
>>695191890Fat ass spider
>>695185512More of a Poison guy but Bug's probably my number two. They go hand in hand a lot, anyway.
>>695185740this but female
>>695192084Big fat abdomens
>>695193979They have ruined me
>>695185512sex with a pheromosa who is at minimum twice my height
sex with pheromosa, butterfree, and mega beedrill
yanmega and masqerain are my favesrate my taste
all the best bug pokemon aren't bug type.
>>695195638>compshitwho fucking cares, comp is for fags>design wisethen you just have shit taste
>>695189304>>695189427I hate this fucking faggt so much. Scyther and scizors "weapons" are seamlessly integrated into theyre bodies in a way that looks natural then this faggot just has literal fucking axes for hands. So fucking lazy and ugly. I mean its not like scizor has literal scissors for hands ffs
Bug is the type for quirky faggots and zoomes to latch onto. No one thinks garbage like Leavanny or Ledian looks cool. No one wants to fuck them. Zoomoids are trying to hard to be wacky.
>>695195940So trvke sister
>>695195638Thats just gliscor and also phermosa and genesect exist
>>695195940There's been bugspergs from the beginning but try harder to fit in newfag.
>>695195638that's because shit rock made anything weak to rock inherently bad
>>695185512Volcarona is the best pokemon ever and I am ready to die on this hill.
>>695185512Okay>Use Protect
>>695185512They are a type specifically designed to show babbies how evolution mechanic works early, also scizor
>>695195940Leavanny is okay but I definitely think Ledian looks cool and absolutely want to fuck it.
>>695185512Bugs is a blanket ter. Pillbugs are crustaceans. Smails are Molluscs. Centipedes aren't even insects. The only retard who doesn't really belong there are the hermit crabs.
