There are two kinds of Pokemon Trainers

I'll probably have Greninja and Skrelp, so it's to much...

I don't understand why people like it so much more than Binacle. It is an interesting progression and concept to be sure, but I still find it pretty ugly. To each his own, I suppose.

My team will consist of six Barbaracle, each with a different moveset for different situations. With it, I shall plow through the Pokemon League and fight my way to the Elite Four, mercilessly crushing them on my way to the champion, whose very head I will shatter with a six-way head-punch. There, registered in the hall of fame, shall be my prized Bara Barbaracles.

Well Binacle wasn't just ugly.
It was the worst fucking thing ever.
It was so many things we didn't like.
Shit design in general.
Fucking retarded looking face.
Two heads, and a name that implied its evolution would just grow a third.
But it didn't.
It grew into THIS.
So, yeah, if this is a standalone I imagine it wouldn't get the attention its getting, but that interesting progression makes all the difference.

Quoted By:

>>14226381
This is a common misconception, x4 weaknesses are NOT necessarily bad. They're only bad if they don't come with resists to compensate for it, or come with a lot of shitty x2 weaknesses as well. For example, Dragon/Flying has AMAZING resists to make up for the x4 ice weakness, x4 grass, fighting, fire, water, and a ground immunity. Water/Flying removes a grass weakness and gives a ground immunity and very useful resists in exchange for doubling the electric weakness and giving a rock weakness, which is is a good tradeoff for an offensive pokemon like Gyarados.

It's better to have one or two x4 weaknesses than 4 or 5 x2 weaknesses because an x2 weakness to a high tier OU offensive pokemon's moves will usually result in taking OHKO/2HKO anyways.
