>>57199646Necrozma is psychic, and he’s the opposite of light. Dark is the opposite of psychic, thus darkness is the actual light type.
>>57199646noted
>>57199646people only want him as a dark type because he's black and edgycowards. if you want to give him a secondary type, make it psychic. or fuck, even fairy. both make more sense than dark.
>>57199666nope, you got satan tripsif anything luxray should be part fire type because hell is full of fire and brimstone, which might actually be pretty cool and a big improvementthere's plenty of good physical fire types so giving it a part fire typing would let it get better use out of its 120 base attack
>>57199646>>57199647>Luxray can see through walls to spot its preys and always aims for the weak spots in its targets.Wow so darn hard to just change some dex entries to make it fit the dark(predator) type.
it doesn't work as dark, never did
>>57199646b-b-but he looks dark just like my wife's boyfriend and her son!
I don't care that it doesn't fit. Luxray is a shitmon and Dark type would make it less awful
>>57199687>need to change the dex entry to make it darkthen complaining about how it should be dark type in the first place is retarded
>>57199834Luxray being Electric/Dark isn't going to unfuck Shit Freak's ineptitude with physical Electric type Pokemon.
>>57199858turn wild charge into volt tackle and volt tackle into electric close combat so you can use it with focus sash. it's time
X-ray uses x-rays not light. lux itself is light, which also have rays.There is absolutely fucking nothing about x-rays in this Pokemon
>>57199936>There is absolutely fucking nothing about x-rays in this Pokemon>"Luxray can see through solid objects. It will instantly spot prey trying to hide behind walls, even if the walls are thick."X-ray vision
>>57199646X-Ray = health hazard = evil = dark type
>>57199943That only work in this magic way for superman.X-Rays don't work like that.He's electric type, so he probably uses electromagnetism to "see", like a shark does
>>57199687>hunting makes a pokemon dark typeRetard.
>>57199646Ok, but consider this: OP is a faggot.
>>57199646
>>57199782>b-b-but he looks dark just like my wife's boyfriend and her son!Even as a joke, this is weird to say. Get the bbc of your brain.
>>57200089that's what half the dark types are, tarder
>>57199646Röentgen is a measure of radiation exposure, not another name for X-rays.>>57199936X-rays are photons, its the same thing as light just a much higher frequency.
>>57199646>>57199647Thank you.
>>57200332Why isn't every pokemon that hunts a dark type then? You should try being less stupid and non white
Someone gets it.>>57199665Psychic would work great for a split evo.
>>57199646AgreedLuxray should be light type
>>57199647Just being a predatory animal is exactly the justification Gamefreak uses for several of its dark types, so this really isn’t an argument at all.
>>57200429>Just being a predatory animal is exactly the justification Gamefreak uses for several of its dark typesPost some
>>57199647>does not fit these descriptionsExcept that It literally does. It uses underhanded tactics (xray vision) to hunt. It makes as much sense for it to be dark as for something like Mightyena or Liepard, and Dark suits Luxray a lot more than it does Absol.It's still baffling to see autists seethe endlessly at this type change that sometimes appears in romhacks.>>57199665>>57200374Goddamn I'm glad none of you retards will ever work for gamefreak, kek.
>Tries to stop bad premonitions of the future but failsAbsol should be a psychic typeMega should be a fairy type.
Introduce Radiation type and add it to Luxray.
>>57200451>It uses underhanded tactics (xray vision) to hunt.How is that underhanded? It's using what it's naturally born with to hunt. Is it underhanded when a flying type eats a bug?
>>57200440Mightyena. It's dex entries are literally about how fiercely loyal and straight forward it is.
>>57200458>Mega should be FairyWait, it isn't?
>>57200464The first dex entry it ever received mentions its savageness.
>>57200440>Mightyena>Sneasel>Liepard>Umbreon>Scrafty>Sharpedo>Cscturne>KrookodileNone of these dark types have anything in their original dex entries that say they have hunting methods that makes them out to be more "evil" than other hunting pokemon, especially when compared to Luxray. Cope and seethe.
>>57200472>MIGHTYENA gives obvious signals when it is preparing to attack. It starts to growl deeply and then flattens its body. This POKéMON will bite savagely with its sharply pointed fangs.Idk that sounds like predatory animal behavior.
>>57200474>savage>vicious>moody and vicious>striking fear>rude>bully>stalking until things die>very violentThis is why every one of those are dark type. Stop being a retarded illiterate.
>>57200483Yeah, and? Just being a predator doesn't make things dark type. Otherwise fearow would be a dark type.
>>57200463>How is that underhanded? How is Mightyena hunting in packs and being a savage underhanded?>It's using what it's naturally born with to hunt. Is it underhanded when a flying type eats a bug?Going by this retarded logic, no pokemon should be a dark type because they are "naturally born" as dark types and simply use what they know to hunt. If you can't see the difference between a bird eating bugs and an edgy design like Luxray that uses x ray vision to hunt then you're retarded and autistic.
>>57200506>How is Mightyena hunting in packs and being a savage underhanded?It's not and no one said it is.>Going by this retarded logic, no pokemon should be a dark type because they are "naturally born" as dark types and simply use what they know to hunt.Glad you see that its retarded and that hunting has nothing to do with being dark type. You're so stupid.
>>57200491>>savageLiterally just hunts.>>viciousLiterally just hunts.>>moody and viciousLiterally just hunts.>>striking fearLiterally just hunts.>>rudeLiterally just hunts.>>bullyLiterally just hunts.>>stalking until things dieLiterally just hunts.>>very violentLiterally just hunts.Stop being an retarded illiterate.
>>57200371because they *just* hunt, and it's not part of their theme, pokemon like mightyena are dark because we think of them hyenas mostly as scavengers, not as nice pets
>>57200497Yeah that's the point. The only thing justifying mightyena is being a dark type is being a predator. otherwise all it's traits asides from being black are pretty anti-dark.
>>57200528>quoting from the pokedex makes you illiterate>no ujajaja mi fellow brown third worlder
>>57200528hunts or hunts in form of gangester packs
sex with luxray
>>57200529>>57200533You guys are actually illiterate so I will help you. >Just being a predatory animal is exactly the justification Gamefreak uses for several of its dark typesThis means that all it takes to be a dark type is being a predatory animal. However, other pokemon hunt and are not dark type, making that statement of yours completely retarded. Good luck in the future.
>>57200547>This means that all it takes to be a dark type is being a predatory animal. However, other pokemon hunt and are not dark type, making that statement of yours completely retarded. No, Im saying that it's hunting gets more focus for this species. It's yuo who can't justify why those Pokemon are dark type.
>>57200547I'm literally agreeing with you. Trying to use justify Mightyena as a dark type off the first entry but say it isn't about being predatory is silly.
>>57200555If Mightyena is a dark type, luxray can be a dark type since they clearly have similar predatory behavior.A lot of pokemon can justifiable be made into a dark type based on the same logic and that's fine.
>>57200491>just a bunch of descriptors for hunting methodsSo dark type is about hunting, gotcha.
>>57200463> It's using what it's naturally born with to huntJust like most dark types. Cacturne use their superior stamina in the desert to hunt, Weavile use their superior social brains to hunt, and so on.
>>57200566>This means that all it takes to be a dark type is being a predatory animal. However, other pokemon hunt and are not dark type, making that statement of yours completely retarded. Only because you're retarded and can't see how distinct visually and thematically dark type Pokemon are.
>>57200580What about Krokorok makes it a dark type compared to Luxray
>poochyena and mightyenaMaybe they didn't want two normal types on the same route again ir make Dark types more accessible
>>57200590>a lot of black colors>mean eyes and arm crossing>based on animal that's associated with brutalityLuxray should be dark too, it's the odd one out here
>>57200606Dark/Normal would've worked really well on Pooch and Mightyena, though I guess that would've made them even bigger shitmons
wait did I seriously just spend like 14 years thinking luxray was dual electric/dark type when its not? what the fuck? mandela moment.
do you think she would use her xray vision to look under her trainers clothes when shes in heat
>>57200748You're an unfunny tryhard retard.
>>57200779its not supposed to be funny and yes im trying to be hard
>>57200783No, you're just a pathetic and degenerate moron. Stop spamming your cancer here you worthless parasite
The Luxray dark type shit is such a tired complaint, both Redditors and 4chinners are two sides of the same crusty coin.In PMDEOT/D The Luxray clan attacks the protagonists via ambush in Amp Plains, even when they were begging them to listen. That's enough for me. Also it's more fun to use, rare type combo as well.
>>57201171This.
>>57199646This thread has some good examples on how inconsistent Dark-typing is. Sometimes things are given Dark-type because of ferocity, sometimes because they’re predatory, sometimes because they have dark colors.
I always thought part ice type would be cool, since I thought it had been shown to use it's xray vision to help find people lost in the snow
>>57201190Every child would've easily put all those categories under "dark".
>>57201260Yeah, except that sometimes those things don’t count for some reason. Gamefreak either has some other, hidden factor for why things may not be Dark-type or they just flip a coin.
>>57199646>>57199647You were supposed to pretend to hate single type pokemon to fit in with the reddit masses
>>57199646but he's black
>>57201460hating single type pokemon and thinking a dual type on a specific pokemon makes no sense is not mutually exclusive
>>57201446I'd lean more towards the "flip a coin" optionJellicent was originally just a mono Water type before it was decided to add the Ghost typing "for the sake of balance"
>>57200941this is my board. get used to it
>>57200590prison stripes and bandit / shady eyes (Zorro type characters cover their eyes with black bands with eye slits in them to conceal their identity; sunglasses are the uniform of ne'er-do-wells)
>>57201446Choose Pokemon with highest dark type potential
>>57199646>>57199647Morpeko moment.
sexray
>>57201640Basculin
>>57199646Should be Psychic type desu. Light stuff fits and x-ray vision is sorta like ESP kinda.
>>57202485No, that's retarded.
>>57199646Ignore this shitty thread, the moron who made it is a sperg who frequents the sharty and constantly shits out threads over the same fangames he's obsessed with, which are Rejuvenation and Reborn.If you see someone on /vp/ nonstop shitting out threads about the following Pokemon: Sandslash, Blaziken, Talonflame, Arcanine and Aggron.There is a high likelihood it's him, he is also the faggot constantly spamming threads like "Give Arcanine Dragon Dance". He used to shit up the /vp/ play threads up until recently before the tripfags told him to fuck off again and he goes by Musk. He also constantly starts up fights with trannies and faggots on rule 34 under the name NymphisFae, then inevitably report spams their comments if they say anything about the characters he obsesses over, he does similar things on /vp/ whenever people say anything he doesn't like.
>>57201460No one "hates single type pokemon" just because they think this one pokemon should have a second type, you genuine retard.Christ the autism itt is off the charts lmao.
>>57201490>prison stripesHoly fucking cope
>>57202488>eceleb obsesser says other people should ignore his subjectHe's not just for you to follow and support.
>>57202488>people autistic enough to seethe at Electric/Dark Luxray also browse the sharty and obsess over RebornThat really checks out honestly.
>>57202527>first post is a simple explanation of why it doesn't fit>reeeeeeWhatever you tell yourself.
>>57202547It's not really "the first post". Autists have been seething over this topic for years by now just because some romhacks change Luxray's typing to make it stand out.Not even reddit is as pathetic as you.
>>57202562Sorry, I'm not up to date with your romhack drama. Just going off how people are acting in this thread.
>>57202575>Sorry, I'm not up to date with your romhack drama.So you're basically talking out of your ass.You're so pathetic and disingenuous, lmao.
>>57199646>>57199647Cool but the only coverage it learns naturally is dark and it's mostly blackI don't care either way, but I see what people mean when they talk about it
>>57200590The bad guy/crook motif the entire line is based on.
>>57202587It's not talking out of my ass when what I posted is exactly how the thread played out. Let me guess, brown?
>luxray is blackMore proof that this board doesn't read the pokedex.
>>57202613I use my eyes nigga
>>57202592Your reasonings are really massive copes and stretches. It's honestly really pathetic.
>>57202587>>57202617>must defend bad change at all costskwab
>>57202622>must seethe and get mindbroken at fangames changes at all costskwab
>>57199646>Trace Kimba the white lion>color it black>say it's about x-ray to get away with the blatant rip offWhy Shitfreak is like this?
>>57199646X-ray and light are both just electromagnetic radiation, it's fitting for it to be a pure electric type.
>>57202654Pure Electric is so boring though. Raichu, Amoharos, Manectric, Zebstrika, Boltund... like fuck, we need some flavour. Even Helioptile's half normal typing is more interesting at this point.
>>57202720Sure, but that doesn't mean Luxray is secretly meant to be a Dark-type. It's just a dull mon people latched on to because DP had a mediocre dex, similar to Ampharos and GS
>>57204245>anti-DP out of nowhereIt still had great utility from having Intimidate, and Luxio is pretty fantastic early on.
>>57204263It's also your only Electric-type option aside from Pikachu which is useful in a region that has actually strong Gyarados
>>57199646Yes, anyone with a brain knows Luxray would be part Psychic if anything. So must we really have this thread 3 times a week?
i'm going to make luxray electric/dark in my upcoming hack just to spite you and there's nothing you can do about it faggot
