those are jobber types

They use the most autistic types for the pokemon with the most autistic fans. The types in your image are for normal people.
>>
>>58189097
Eternatus could have been the one but...

Calyrex was tecnically a cover legend?

But it loses grass

He says like the series wasn't created by a bug autist

Just waiting on the day we get a rock/ground mascot legendary
>>
>>58189106
You could count Ogerpon if going main DLC legends. Terapogos could've been Rock
>>
>>58189121
>created by a bug autist
And he still doesn't feel the need to do anything special for the type. Imagine how bad this series would be if a dragon or firefag created it.
>>
>>58189097
Bug is too weak and Poison is too villainous
>>
I've been expecting a bug box legendary since gen 4
it'll happen eventually
>>
>>58189155
The grim reaper and Satan aren't villainous?
>>
>>58189097
Legendary snakemon that sets Acid Rain upon entry which gives a 50% power bonus to Poison type attacks and makes them super effective against Water, Ground and Steel types when!?
>>
>>58190211
instead of acid rain, make it a noxious cloud. To even challenge the pokemon to catch it in-game you need to wear a hazmat suit.
>>
>>58189102
Anon poison and bug are EASILY the most autistic types alongside fairy
normalfag types would be fire electric and water

Yes????
>>
>>58190296
oh yeah Dragon is another ultra-normie type I forgot
>>
>>58190271
Fairy is a normalfag type. It’s literally designed for mass appeal (Pokemon has been a cutesy franchise since Gen 2) and to have powerful matchups.
>>
>>58189097
I like Grass, Bug and Poison type
>>
They didn't make a bad poison type design until garbodor (which I personally even don't mind but whatever) and until gen 8 with stuff like eternatus and toxel, and gen 9 with stuff like varoom, iron moth, okidogi, and munkidori. Even then shroodle and grafaiai are some of my favorite designs so poison is still the single best type aesthetically imo. I've thought this ever since I first started playing the games.
>>
>>58189097
What is the mascot for Normal type, if mascots of DLC do not count?
>>
>>58189106
The box cover of Calyrex is without steed, so Grass/Psychic type.
>>
>>58189169
the grim reaper isn't, satan is

It's understandable you don't count Calyrex since it's dlc and not base game.
>>
>>58190733
solgaleo, fire/normal.
>>
>>58189097
Sorry kiddo, but Fairy needed 2 box legendaries both of which were insanely busted for their time and even today.
We can't have some mystical forest god using plant magic be a box legendary, or some giant rock god, or any of that crap.
Hopefully Gen 10 introduces the 3rd Fairy box art legendary and its just a giant goldfish and is pure Fairy too.
>>
>>58190733
Arceus

Grass and poison could easily receive one, maybe if we get a generation about fixing nature's ruined by pollution and one legendary is grass/fairy and the other is poison/steel.

Bug and rock seems fudged though, rock missed it's chance with groudon and Bug lol
>>
>>58191091
>and one legendary is grass/fairy and the other is poison/steel.
seems strange to make the pollution one have such an advantage

>Bug and rock seems fudged though, rock missed it's chance with groudon and Bug lol
rock could easily do for a fossil mon legendary, and bug should have been the swarm rep. Imagine if zygarde was bug-type. Wait that's so stupid, them making fairy resist bug was already dumb but why WAS zygarde dragon anyway, making it weak to xerneas? If bug hit fairy SE and it was bug/ground it would have been an effectively new type combo (nincada lmao) and had an advantage (well sorta) on both box legendaries. And it would have been a swarm. Gamefreak is so dumb.
>>
>>58191091
>Bug and rock seems fudged though
bug = Arachne
rock = Medusa
I'll take my check in the mail

Eh, probably only grass then. But we always had imbalanced legendaries, eg xerneas vs yveltal.

Gen 11 (or 12) will be inspired by Brazil and will have ecologic themes once again. The box legendaries are pretty much decided. One good and the other evil. The good guy will be Dragon/Grass and the evil one will be Fairy/Poison.

Also, they will have a Gen 8 remake/expansion one day with Eternatus being the cover legendary.

This is actual information I know. Gen 10 they are keeping a secret, gen 11 is probably Brazil (focus on Rio, Sao Paulo and the Amazon Forest), gen 12 is probably Germany (with a bit of Switzerland and Netherlands according to what I saw).
>>
>>58191219
it honestly would be fine if they had an ability that turned things on its head somewhat, like their ability made them specifically target the other types. Wouldn't be crazy considering what box legendaries can do now. Something like:
>[nature legendary ability]: The Pokemon is immune to the first Steel and Poison move used against it in battle.
and give it an ability that lets it refresh its ability, probably its signature move. 2 immunities wouldn't even be that crazy (on top of dragon).
>[pollution legendary ability]: If the Pokemon uses a move that the opponent is immune to, increase Attack and Special Attack [or whatever]
so that it's a dangerous game fighting the two, where the nature mon would want to keep using the grass or fairy move in order to keep its immunities but that powers up the pollution mon making it even more dangerous. Which kind of matches how pollution works in real life, so, I dunno I'm kind of convincing myself of it, honestly. It seems like fun.

True fan

>>58189097
As a big fan of bugs, I regret to inform you that there will always be a very scarce amount of bug and/or poison-type legendaries. Pokémon is designed to be a franchise intended to be as profitable as possible, and the vast majority of the world find bugs and venomous creatures to be terrifying on a pathological level. A lot of franchises in general try to minimize the amount of bugs and snakes utilized because sensitivity training usually involves learning to be conscious of common phobias, with bugs, snakes and spiders being at the top of that.

Fun Fact: Not a single bug-type Pokémon that even vaguely resembles an arachnid has 8 limbs. The only bug-types that have 8 limbs are Venipede and Crustle.

I don't think that'll stop japan from making a kamen rider legendary in gen 12 or whatever

Is there a single legendary uglier than this thing?

Yo momma's butt

Because pokémon is stale and creatively bankrupt and afraid to take any amount of risk

Making bug bad is actually shit game design and no you cannot justify it with your corporate cocksucking

No legendary
Got a completely uncalled for extra weaknesses when Fairy was released
Isn't the best at countering anything meaningful
Being double effective against grass dark, dark psychic, and psychic grass is meaningless because there are like only 2 good mons in all those dual types.
>>
>>58194055
Also highest number of weaknesses, including many of the best types.

i'm surprised there really aren't that many defensive bug types. resistances to both EQ and CC are nothing to scoff at though flying also does that
>>
>>58193901
I care
>>
>>58194151
stealth rock was what made that uninteresting to approach for several gens, though volcarona always used its bulk to swap into the then-overtuned fighting types at the time. Now with heavy duty boots it might be more viable. Also there was forretress in gens 2 and 3.
>>
>>58194151
>>58194242
also if I were to want one made, it'd easily be an anthill. How have we not gotten a puny ant that evolves into a bug/ground anthill yet?
>>
>>58189155
>Bug is too weak
Yeah, I'm sure a Bug/Steel legendary would be too weak.

Kek sure
>>
>>58189097
Would a bot fly legendary even work for the masses merch wise?
>>
I think Rock or Grass could get one ventually, I think bug or poison could only work as a secondary typing.
>>
>>58194548
a pollution legendary is absolutely gonna happen soon
>>
>>58189097
Because those are shitty, weak, filler types.
