>>58710361>iron moth if it was good
Good because of its typing, or in spite?
>>58710361Gundam Double X if she is Pokemon
>>58713705yes
>>58713705Volc’s good mostly in spite of its typing, but it’s not the worst typing ever.Bug/Fire is surprisingly decent offensively, and things like being neutral to Ground are nice, but the sneaky pebbles are literally right thereChanging Volcarona’s type in any way or increasing it’s BST even slightly make it busted beyond belief. GF actually did a really good job balancing Volcarona
>>58713821no matter what powercreep's gonna lead to tons of busted shit happening anywaysVolcarona getting a regional form wouldn't really hurtAlso its paradoxes aren't as strong competitively but that's mostly because they don't get victory/quiver dance respectively, even though it'd be really fun to see them have thoseHell I'd settle for just Dragon Dance for Slither Wing
might as well post the exactly two other images of unofficial volcaronas with other typeshere's what'd be a much better use of the first non-legendary fire/grass "slot" (for lack of a better term)
and here's a very important pure flying bird mothi sure do hope it's not a prisoner behind a 1/8 chance of even being obtainable in its home fangamea chance that cannot be save scummed or have its results revealed until over a third of the way into said very long game
and just for fun here's an aggron/volcarona fusion because kaijumons are cool and fusing multiple kaijumons is of course double cool
and here is some forbidden knowledge
>>58713890They did and fail with Frosmoth shit BST.No way they are making another moth with same type combo, Normal/Flying birds have different designs but a moth is a moth, white and blue hairy butterfly with snowflakes and shit. A special Bug/Ghost using Will o Wisp themed fire or spooky ghost plasma would be a more reasonable take, or some special Bug/Dark.
>>58714064we have 3 normal type domestic cat lines (meowth, skitty, glameow)
>>58713912I always did wonder why Larvesta and Haxorus look so much like Arceus and Giratina
>>58714064even beyond frosmoth's shit stats, it still has the bigger issue of literally every single move in its entire movepool being resisted by steelyou could copy-paste volcarona's statline onto it and it would still be garbage
mega when
>>58718720tootsies all nice and warm
>>58713769Iron Moth really should've had twin satellite cannons now that you mention it.

>>58721445Security's a real nigga
>>58725606now that i think about it, it'd be pretty cool if there were volcarona variants based on other types of stars
Regional Volcarona, but instead of the sun it resembles the moonCould even have it be a new Mon evolved from a regional Larvesta, call it Volcaluna
>>58728597maybe it could be the first fire/fairy typefire because the moon's light comes frkm sunlight reflecting off itfairy because that type's associated with the moon (moonblast, moonlight, the cleffa line, etc)
>>58729048In that case it could be a convergent mon (or whatever the proper name for ones like wiglett and toedscool is) to explain why something that looks like a moth isn't bug
>>58721579>immediately think of Godzilla and Mothra>start wondering if there is anything with Hydreigon to complete the set with King GhidorahThere it is
>>58729276flygon is very obviously based on a type of bug but isn't bug typedjust like how noctowl isn't a bird but is flying type anyways
>>58710365Cute lil' moth frien
>>58713705would say it's in spite of its typing because that statspread + Q.Dance is godly, but Fire Bug is a suspiciously good offensive type that covers a LOT of bases, namely shitstomping Steel types not named Heatran. HP Ground rounds up the coverage to almost boltbeam-tier.
>>58713900I really like this design. The colors go so well together and feels regal to me.
>>58730538>HP GroundHidden Power is gone...
>>58710361Ruinining a perfect design with that future dogshit gimmick, TPC should be nuked
>>58728597>lunar volcanoDo you realize how retarded it is? The moon has always been associated with cold, not heat, dumbo.
>>58737341Not from games actually worth playing
>>58737511name 5 volcanos on the sun
>>58719726so soft and fluffy
>>58737341Give it Scorching Sands as coverage since that seems to be really common coverage for fire types to getAnd because Volcarona's associated with deserts to a degree; if a lot of mons without any connection to sand at all get Scorching Sands as coverage then so should Volcarona
>>58737511Then make it ice type. Or to avoid copying Frosmoth, make it water type. The moon is closely associated with water too.
Give solar power
i want to hug a volcarona
Give victory dance
>>58737504At least it wasn't ruined by a disappointing mega form.
>>58746755it must be hard being this constantly miserable
>>58747946looks ready for an intense gaming session
>>58713705The only good thing bugs have going for them is STAB u-turn, something which Volcarona can't take advantage of>but quiver dancenot exclusive to bugs
>>58749458that idea i've seen floating around /vp/ where bugs would be buffed to be immune to hazards in general due to their general reflexes and small size would probably do a lot to make them more worth consideringalso the implications of volcarona with a normal item and built in boots are horrifyingly awesome
>>58710522so pretty!
Is Volcarona the most legendary non-legendary pokemon ever? It has a cool temple dedicated to it and all of its entries are about being some myth worthy being.
>>58726184both magnificent and frightening at the same time
>>58749510Hazards are non-existent in VGC so this won't even be a buff in GF's mind
>>58753802>implying GF balances for either type of battle in the first placelol, lmao
>>58755490Perfect fit!
>>58758978gorged himself on berries again huh
>>58713890I dream of quiver dance on iron moth
>>58710361Honestly the best bug Pokemon of them all.
>>58749510Cute!
>>58721260Group hug time!
>>58712769Give dragon dance
>>58729329>noctowl isn’t a birdYou sure about that one?
>>58717773The way they have been designing the most recent Megas. I hope he never gets one. I don’t want a perfect design ruined into ugly, mega trash.
>Paradox Pokemon are built to surpass the original>Volcarona gets both kinds>Both are worse then it.Can't top perfection.
>>58764720I mean no shit Volcarona was defined by having a really good setup moveThe main reason its paradox forms are worse is because they don't have great setup movesNot even dragon dance/calm mindGive them victory/quiver dance (for slither wing/iron moth respectively) and then you'll get stronger paradoxesBut hey it's still better to have paradoxes that are still decent/good even if they don't meet the same standard as the original than to have shitmon paradoxes
>>58764673nothing in that attempts to claim that noctowl is a birdalso noctowl is brown, not white
>>58764673>implying owls are birds
>>58713912the world isn't ready for such truths...
borrowed from the catalog
up
i always associate slither wing with faputa, especially since area zero is basically just the abyss
>>58770425lol I'd be a little freaked out too if one decided to land on my head
