Would these have been good types for the Galar starters' final evolutions?
>>
>>59040923
Cute. I’m living
Still think they’re the ugliest starters to date. Like all three have trash final Evo designs
>>
>>59040923
>hurr yellow so electric
>hurr brown so rock
No.
>>
>>59040923
Every single one of them /ghost. All reduced to corpses and skeletons because that's the only thing theyre good for.
>>
>>59040929
>hurr brown so rock
Anon doesn't realise rillaboom is based on rock music, kek
>>
>>59040923
These are amazing types, why haven't we seen these yet?

wow no, that is Gen 3

Gorilla-brained

Gens 4 and 7 have the best final starter evolutions

Anon doesn’t realize Pokemon aren’t designed around dogshit puns kek

>>59041009
Gen 3 has:
a bald lizard
a human chicken
an ugly abomination

Because GF are cowards
>>
>>59040959
Fire also hits Ice for 2x, so it was really bad
>>
>>59040923
Cinderace basically has over 10 types, I think he's fine without a 2nd type
>>
>>59041022
Hoenn fags annoy me but even I don’t think the gen 3 starters are the worst. 8 2 and 9 take the cake

What a retarded type triangle

>Anon doesn’t realize Pokemon aren’t designed around dogshit puns kek
They kind of are. Farfetch’d is just based on a Japanese idiom, Pidove is designed around the idea that pigeon and the English loanword heart and pronounced the same in Japanese, Jynx’s ice typing in tandem with its design is a reference to the Japanese localization of an older (western) film, Exeggutor is a “dragon tree”, Flygon is an antlion (called sand dragon in JP), etc.

The English word “rock” (as in, stone,) has been used in place of the Japanese word in Pokemon before, and the music itself is just called rock over there too. It’s fairly likely we’ll get a rock music-based rock Pokemon at some point, since the series loves its dumb puns.
>>
>>59041153
Exactly. Pokemon have always used puns in their names and or designs.
>>
>>59041153
> They kind of are
No, they aren’t.
>b-buh farfetch’d
works as a design regardless of whether or not you know the pun
>b-buh pidove
works as a design regardless of whether or not you know the pun
>jynx
this is a fanfic you made up
>Exeggutor
dragons have long necks and tails, you fucking retard
>flygon
works as a design regardless of whether or not you know the pun
>>
>>59041167
You’re a bitter Betty and I don’t like it
>>
>>59041167
Exactly. Making Rillaboom rock type when it has nothing to do with rocks is fucking retarded.

Keep coping and seething, anon.

Its wood is hard as rock

There is also petrified wood.

Let anons work at gamefreak, we'll set this franchise forward

>dragons have long necks and tails you fucking retard
>NOOOOOOOO NOT LIKE THAT IT DOESN'T COUNT
>>
>>59041292
Yes anon. That’s a Pokemon that looks like a dragon. You don’t need to know some dumbfuck pun for the design to make sense.
>>
>>59041175
It’s called “rock type” not “hard type” dumbfuck.
>>
>>59041116
He's arguably the best user of Libero/Protean now after the nerf in singles (at least until Mega Greninja)
>>
>>59040923
rock resists poison dipshit

>>59041341
Bet you feel real stupid now, anon.

Still better than this monstrosity

Dark resists ghost, and those types were just used in the paldea starters

I would never look at a palm tree with legs and think "That's a dragon."
Does this look like a dragon to you?
>>
>>59041464
Yes it does
>>
>>59040943
if the joke doesnt work in Japanese, it does not get put into the game.
"Dub jokes" have always been a retarded suggestion made by even bigger retards.
>>
>>59041511
Because rock music is a purely western thing? You sound incredibly retarded
>>
>>59041547
Rock for the rock music works, yes.
But maybe you inbred retard should look up what the Rock type is called in Japanese.
Since Japanese does not call the Rock type Rock type, your pun does not work anymore.
Hilarious that you are too retarded to understand this, without someone having to properly spell it out for you.
>>
>>59041553
Rock type is called the hard type
>>
>>59041553
Fucking retard

Man I was CONVINCED that Scorbunny was going to be Fire/Electric and Sobble Water/Ghost.
Grookey was a bit harder to place, could have gone Grass/Rock, Grass/Dark, or Grass/Fighting.
Imagine my surprise that NONE of the starters were dual-typed, a mistake they had not made since Gen 2.
>>
>>59041736
Galar starters are so mid, very forgettable too.
>>
>>59040923
Why everything needs a secondary type.
Water is great, works perfectly by itself.
Fire also became pretty good after fairy.
Grass is the only shitty one and still Rillaboom ended up the only meta one so it didn't matter
>>
>>59040923
Why would the rabbit be electric? That's dumb.
>>
>>59040959
>>59041087
water is SE against rock...
>>
>>59041153
Also Toedscruel only existing because "tree jellyfish" is their word for woodear mushrooms IIRC.
