Vespiquen. Not really, my favorite insect is the Stag Beetle. I do love Vikavolt though.

No, it's my second favorite after Steel.
>Who's your favorite Bug-type specialist?
They are all kinda shit to me. Maybe Viola because she is cute, or Burgh because i like artist trainers.

No but i might in the future.

>What's your favorite Bug-type? Does it correspond with what your favorite real-world bug is?
Volcarona my beloved. Honestly it does correspond to my favorite bugs, I love moths, they’re just too cute.
Honorable mention to Wormadam, she’s another favorite of mine that doesn’t get enough love. Technically she’s also a moth!
>Is Bug your favorite type?
In terms of how many pokemon of that type I like it’s really up there, maybe second to Grass.
>Who's your favorite Bug-type specialist?
I’ve always been partial to Aaron. He showed me that some Bug types are actually pretty good.
>Ever do a monobug run? Or build a monobug team?
I haven’t, but I could see it being fun in FRLG. There’s a neat variety in that gen, with Scyther and Pinsir being your main attackers, Butterfree, Parasect, and Venomoth providing status support, and Beedrill being moral support lol
>Will we ever get a Bug-type starter?
I feel it’s unlikely for as long as early game bugs are a thing. It’d be cool though.

Soon.

If they ever do a Bug starter I really hope it's a Water/Bug beetle.

Based thread.
>What's your favorite Bug-type? Does it correspond with what your favorite real-world bug is?
This cutie. Not sure what my favorite IRL bug is, but bees are cool, and Ribombee is a beefly (not a real bee), so it's close enough.
>Is Bug your favorite type?
Possibly. Got a lot of great designs.
>Who's your favorite Bug-type specialist?
I guess Guzma.
>Ever do a monobug run? Or build a monobug team?
I use monobug in Showdown. Araquanid, Ribombee, Volcarona, Heracross, Scizor, Ferrothorn.
>Will we ever get a Bug-type starter?
That would be cool, but redundant since they always include bugs in early routes.

>Favorite bug
hard to say. I'd say Venomoth though maybe Ninjask/Shedinja. Always been a huge fan of Venomoth and even have accounts and stuff that are 15+ years old named after it. Favorite IRL bug is either Moths or Dragonflies.
>Is your bug your favorite type
really close between bug or grass.
>Favorite bug specialist
Honestly don't have one.
>Mono bug run
Not in a mainline Pokemon game. Only ever done mono Poison there. I've done mono bug for fan games.
>bug starter
No, unless it's bug grass

also question for you guys. Do you think Ninjask has a mouth? I know Nincada has one. Someone once told me that its mouth is under the "mask"

Armaldo! I am kinda sad that he isn't mentioned very much in Bug threads. I don't really know what my favorite IRL bug is, and I am not sure that Anomalocaris were bugs.
>Is Bug your favorite type?
Not really.
>Who's your favorite Bug-type specialist?
Maybe Aaron. Bonus points for Drapion which is my favorite Poison type.
>Ever do a monobug run? Or build a monobug team?
I haven't done a monotype run yet. Maybe I will.
>Will we ever get a Bug-type starter?
Maybe. But I feel that the Grass starter is most likely to get it, and Grass/Bug doesn't look like a great dual type.

>What's your favorite Bug-type? Does it correspond with what your favorite real-world bug is?
While I think bug types really hit their stride in later gens, I have to go with my childhood favorite Heracross. I haven't put a lot of thought into my favorite species of bugs but rhinocaurus beetles are pretty cool and considering Kabbu is also my favorite from Bug Fables, I suppose I am drawn to beetles.
>Is Bug your favorite type?
Absolutely, the type simply doesn't miss. Love the underdog status that has kind of seen a turnaround in recent years. When I filled out my favorites chart, bug was the most recurring type overall.
>Who's your favorite Bug-type specialist?
Guzma, of course. He really embodied the type in a way I don't think we'll ever see again. Big fan of Burgh too, his sprite animation from BW2 lives rent-free in my head to this day.
>Ever do a monobug run? Or build a monobug team?
I haven't, but I've thought about it. Feel like it would be pretty rough at the start with all the first and second stages but really come together in the end.
>Will we ever get a Bug-type starter?
I highly doubt it, but would love it and would very likely become my favorite starter by default.

>>58380072
>>What's your favorite Bug-type? Does it correspond with what your favorite real-world bug is?
Shuckle is my favorite bug-type and favorite mon overall. My favorite bug in real life is spiders, though.
>>Is Bug your favorite type?
It honestly might be. Most types are hit or miss for me, but Bug hits pretty consistently.
>>Who's your favorite Bug-type specialist?
Ya boi Guzma
>>Ever do a monobug run? Or build a monobug team?
I played mono-Bug in monotype last gen, but I never got a lot of wins.
>>Will we ever get a Bug-type starter?
We can only hope, but I doubt it. A bug-type starter is more of a bone than I think GF is willing to throw the type.
