Ah yes, the dragon trainer.

>>58290522
Agatha is a poison type specialist

You're a fucking Flying-type specialist and a hack and you know it
>>58290616Lance using Arcanine in Stadium was kino.
>>58290522>not a single johtimmy pokemo
It's kind of funny we only really get thematic teams for the elite four when there are actual limitations(though lance is still monotype funny enough). Original Flint really should be the standard but Platinum couldn't even keep him that way.
>>58290522For all intensive purposes, Gyarados, Aerodactyl, and especially Charizard are basically Dragons. What's inexcusable is 3 Dragonite when Altaria, Flygon, Salamence, and Garchomp are RIGHT THERE for him to add to his team.
>>58290635Fuck before you guys cuss me out, I forgot Kingdra so I'm mentioning it now, although it's kinda Claire's ace.
>>58290635He does actually use those in his rematch fight. Which is more of an issue with how GF handles remakes. Does make me wonder if there would ever be an idea of actually remaking the gens so that you can backport pokemon, mechanics, and story elements from later gens in ways that would make sense. Probably not since it would require a lot of work to look at the regions and actually think about what changes would work and what would be overreach. Like Gen 1 alone would need to take into account pokemon that are in kanto in Gen 2, the connections to Gen 3 that FRLG set up, and even mega evolutions if you want to go that route and it could balloon to the point it goes too far.
>>58290634Hoenn's Elite Four was laughed out of the building for all the repeats. There SHOULDN'T be limitations for trainer specialists, just do a different fucking type or balance the dex
>>58290668>or balance the dexReally I'm not sure how this was ever an issue, like I gotta wonder how far they got into Sinnoh before they realized the region had two fire types including the starter and they just never decided to correct that despite also choosing to make an elite four member a fire trainer, and have that one specifically show up in the story. There's a lot of layers of mismanagement there.
>NOOOOOOOOOOOO [TYPE] SPECIALIST IS ONLY AND ONLY ALLOWED TO HAVE [TYPE] POKEMON IN THEIR PARTY!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOO AAAAAIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I'M GOING INSAAAAAAANEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>58290522Not his fault Johto doesn't have any dragons due to shit region design
>>58290747But anon, Lance is a type specialist, it's just not dragon.
>>58290522CHARIZARD
>>58290748>dratini line and kingdrait has literally every dragon available at the time
>>58290616Gyarados is a dragon by classification like arbok
>>58290634Agatha was also monotype, poison in her case>>58290635the phrase is "for all intents and purposes"
>>58290522The only thing saving this retard from easy and utter humiliation is Sneaky Pebbles only being available in Kanto
>>58290522>>58290565>>58290661
>>58290634>Original Flint really should be the standardNo
>>58290661>HGSS has poor team composi-AAAACCKKKK
>>58290661Game Freak always makes a step forward and two back, I was disappointed by how they handled that shitty Altaria kit and how a Flygon or Kingdra would have been better, then they also fucked up his Dragonite in the rematch, 5 PP Draco Meteor making it a sitting duck for the rest of the match, GF staff doesn't seem to play their own games when at least most of Battle Tower late mon kits are somewhat threatening.Same shit happened with Steven rematch in ORAS, and none his E4 took advantage from their mega evolution passives either. A fucking Carbink and Archeops...
>>58290522>>58290661Lance is really a flying type trainer, and Agatha is really a poison type trainer.
>>58290616You forgot feraligatr
>>58290616>Lance, a champion>using utter shitmons like Arbok and SeadraAnon...
>>58290634>Original Flint really should be the standardSunny Day Fire Punch Lopunny and Fire Fang Sunny Day Steelix are absolute cringe and you should be ashamed for unironically thinking this
>>58290522Worked
>Flying type train-ACK!
E4 teams should be thematic, or at least dual-typed. How the fuck are you considered one of the strongest in the region if your whole team dies to surf or thunderbolt spam?
>>58290565Aerodactyl isn't a dragon at all!>>58290747Yeah, that's right, faggot.>>58291514>Agatha, an Elite Four>using an utter shitmon like Arbok
>>58291719>>Agatha, an Elite FourSo, not a champion. Thought I wouldn't notice you trying to move the goalposts?
>>58291594Because you are capable of making a monotype team that steamrolls most opponents despite the shared weakness.
