yeah
>>59657909can't you also get Pikachu? albeit it's a bit late into the game I guess. there just weren't that many electric types at all at this point in the series, really. the only ones up to that point not available in RSE were Jolteon, Electabuzz, and Ampharos. Manectric is fine for a story playthrough if you really want an electric type.
>>59657909>free shock wave tm>free thunderbolt tmshafted>>59657923>can't you also get Pikachu? albeit it's a bit late into the game I guess.Not really, he's a little out of the way but beating Winona isn't a requirement to reach safari zone and you can set aside the rustboro-slateport surf routes to train him up on, not to mention all the upcoming surf routes plus carvanha spam in sapphire
>>59657909Can't you get Voltorb in New Mauville?
>it's a "every region needs to have perfect coverage and regional dexes" thread>combined with a thinly veiled "every gym leader needs to use Pokemon only introduced in their region" thread
>>59657909>literally can't hit marshtompAt least emerald wattson have sonic boom, quick attack and self destruct
>>59658529its nice to be able to fight water/flying without relying on a geodude or roselia
>>59657909Magneton is greatLanturn is also great but I'm not using a Pokémon I can only catch 7 badges in. Real niggas use Lanturn in GSC.
Electric types were shafted WAY harder in gen 2.>Mareep line not in Crystal>Pichu/Elekid only available as Odd Egg, which is only in Crystal before post-game and they're among the rarer Odd Egg mons>Voltorb is an ingame trade before post-game and has no STAB by level up>Jolteon is only accessible in Crystal before post-game>Most electric types can't learn Thunder Punch and don't learn anything better than Thunder Shock by level up>Have to spend a ton of time/money at the Game Corner for the Thunder TM if you want a STAB worth a damn, which means you also need another move slot for Rain Dance to make it useful >Thunder Bolt is post-game and only in Crystal
>>59658733>>Mareep line not in Crystalirrelevant because everyone had gold/silver
>>59658733>make Mareep available again>change Voltorb trade to a Pikachu>make Goldenrod tutors available after clearing Radio Tower>Add some NPC somewhere that gives you an Eeveelution stone corresponding to whatever beats Silver's starter (meaning Cyndaquil players get Jolteon)Did I fix it?
>>59657909magneton was OU in gen 3
>>59659101Um, ok? Any placements at Jump Festa?
>>59657909>>plusle and minun(worthless)that's wrong>>electrikewhat about it>electric pokemon got absolutely shafted in gen 3how so
>>59659101sir this is a campaignshitter thread
>>59657909And that's fine, don't use electric types for a gen, you're not going to dieNew regions have zero identity because their design looks more like a Mario overworld than an actual region
>>59657956post-norman feels like 90% into the game
>>59657909By what measure? Add pikachu and voltorb and you get 6 electric lines, which I think is actually more than in gen 1, gen 2, gen 4 (including Platinum), or BW. Not to mention things like Jolteon locking you out of the other eeveelutions or electabuzz being exclusive to Red. I don't think you got so many electric types until BW2.
>>59658733>Voltorb is an ingame trade before post-gameYou can also catch the ones at the Rocket Hideout in Mahogany Town.
>>59657909>the region is like half water >the type that's strong against it is restrained to not trivialize the gamegood game design
>>59658529They should have a good equitable representation.
>>59661063>every pokemon that lives in the water has to be a water type
>>59659119>that's wrongwrong
>>59661483unironically yes because you end up with subversive shit like grapploct otherwise
>>59657909Magnetic is right there it's pretty fast for Hoenn and with solid attacks
>>59661494>Nuzzle>Encore>Worthless
>>59661559>Power: 20
electric mons were never good2nd worst type next to bug, the dedicated jobbers
>>59661561>if it doesn't have 150 base power its worthless!are you 11?
>>59661858>There are no numbers between 20 and 150!Are you 10?
