*Cough* Bronzong *Cough*I'd have to vote for STEEL TYPE as the pokemon games need more steel types like Lucario;) And also like Forretress but equal in both its' defenses so it can actually take a hit as Forretress can only take physical hits. Also it needs to have good attacks and a good purpose as forretress has only one purpose and that's to set up spikes then explode when its' done its' job.
Bleh. You have me there. But I'd still like some kinda burning wood thing over the hedgehog and chile pepper suggestions. =PThe problem is, charcoal is no longer a plant, it's just carbon.
Also Metagross, Magnezone, Scizor, Skarmory, and Jirachi. Steel has plenty.*Cough* Bronzong *Cough*
Okay, so maybe Bronzong has a pretty similar physical movepool. But, is there much more needed?
I alway imaged him being based on an elephant shrew but it seems that your hunch on Cyndaquil was right because based on Wiki and Bulbapedia, He is based on an echidna. Also Typhlosion is based on Wolverines..thought I thought it was a fat, tailless ferret.I always figured it was an ant-eater (which is what an echidna is).
I always thought that about Typhlosion too.I alway imaged him being based on an elephant shrew but now that I look him up I realized that your hunch on Cyndaquil was right and that it is based on an echidna. Also Typhlosion is based on Wolverines..though it was a tailless ferret.
There are indeed limitless possibilities for a fire type, for that matter, any type. I just cannot see what role this new fire type will be fufilling until at least the secondary type. What i can see happening is a totally new role if people put their heads together; Breaking outside the mold of Sweeper/Wall/Annoyer would be good. What i'm trying to imply is that within the Sweeper/Wall/Annoyer mold I cannot see what role this fire type will be fufilling That will Actually work and has not already been filled.I would definitely vote Grass/Fire, there's a lot you can do with that. And Aki, you seem to be implying Fire is a type that stifles creativity...why? There is a lot you can do to interpret a Fire type. Merely going "I can't see anything coming out of it" is only going to decrease morale.
i like the idea of beating bulky waters, grounds AND steels. nothing really does that right now.I cannot see what role this fire type will be fufilling That will Actually work and has not already been filled.
Instead of digging my own grave and trying to rebut that, i'm going to say i was wrong, but we should then look for a more specific role that has not been invented/fufilled.Honestly, it's impossible to get a role outside of "Sweeper", "Wall", and "Support". Why? Because those are the broadest terms possible to classify every Pokemon as, and as such there is no fourth option.
You need to get down to more specific roles in order to specify a team slot. For example: SubSeed.
An annoyer is just a sweeper that abuses either wall or support options to sweep easier, but often not as fast.
Cute, deadly... I proclaim it maultastic!What about some sort of flaming panda for Fire/Grass?
Sounds good. Though it should be able to do classic roles too, it's important to be able to fill a new or unused niche.Instead of digging my own grave and trying to rebut that, i'm going to say i was wrong, but we should then look for a more specific role that has not been invented/fufilled.
paraflinchhax with sg is not a "class" of pokemon like "sweeper/wall", it's a specific strat, even if it is "annoying". dane is correct, sweeper wall and support are the classic archetypes.Since Togekiss was invented ._.
HAHA Won just there. I say we name it PandaJustPanda.What about some sort of flaming panda for Fire/Grass?
