That's just obtuse. If you're going to change something so fundamental, REALLY FUCKING SHAKE THINGS UP

All pokemon are now Type Percentages.

Charizard: 60% Fire, 30% Flying, 10% Dragon
Flygon: 50% Dragon, 25% Ground, 25% Flying
Gengar: 10% Poison, 90% Ghost, <1% Flying (negliginle percent as a formality, does not count in calculations, only to get rid of fucking Levitate)
Azumarill: 90% Water, 10% Fairy

and so forth. Instead of something being "weaker than the other same thing" now they can have distinction by being different type percentages.

It is, but it's completely arbitrary (but consistent across generations for mons)

That's needlessly complicated for a children's game.

You guys did a good job at making OP's suggestion sound pretty good.

As is everything else in the mechanics of Pokemon.

Most things like stab, ev's (until super training), anything IVs, almost anything isnt even explicitly explained. Just touched upon. This could be the same way. Pokemon are __% this type. Etc. No big deal. Tons of "children's" japanese games are much more complicated than simple percentages.

>>24772162
I don't understand. I think my idea was cool

>>24772203
Yep. Pretty much.

Because it usually dictates what the Pokemon looks like. Best example is Sableye who's Dark/Ghost and Spiritomb who's Ghost/Dark. Sableye isn't ethereal, but Spiritomb is. It even applies to Mystery Dungeon, where ghost types can phase through walls, but Sableye can't.

Always wanted this. Levitate is such a waste of ability. There's too many pokemons that have levitating sprites but aren't immuned to ground type moves like Magnemite line.

Wow, that's a completely awful idea and I'm glad you don't make games.

Get rid of the last part about monotypes.

Still trash? And why not just "it's different so it's bad".

Not trash guy here, but my idea is better than your idea. but changing up type combos or calculations
deserves to be looked at in general

>>24773149
Thank you

>>24773286
Kill yourself

>>24773332
It was just an example. Fine, flygon is now 20% bug.
