It's supposed to be based on the Journey to the West pig character I forget the name of, it's thematic with Infernape. Should've been a Grass type or something though. That way a Water starter could've been the other character

Game Freak fucked up hard

unnecessary. Pigs dig for truffles. They're already a "ground type" animal.

Decidueye is Grass/Ghost likely because of the stilt owl, which is a native-Hawaiian bird that is now extinct.

Another argument why it should be Fire/Ground instead of Fire/Fighting.

We have so many other Pokémon that are based on extinct animals, and yet NONE of those are Ghost type. This is simply not a valid argument from GameFreak's side.

It's valid enough if you aren't autistic about it. Game Freak does weird shit with their Pokemon all the time. Recently a lot of aquatic animals are no longer sporting the Water type like Eelektross, Stunfisk and Malamar

I think the only problem with Decidueye's Ghost typing is it simply doesn't invoke a spooky feeling because the green is too saturated. If it looked more like an autumn Pokemon, it would be amazing

Emboar, Samurott and Serperior could've been Fire/Dark, Water/Fighting and Grass/Psychic respectively, with a few moves changed. Get a double type triangle in Gen 5.

Empoleon should have been Water/Ice.

First, it's a freaking penguin, known for mostly inhabiting extremely cold areas. Second, it breaks the apparent theme (intended or not) which allowed all Sinnoh starters to have an edge against their superior.

Grass/Ground --> Fire/Fighting --> Water/STEEL? (Two weaknesses from Torterra).

I hope it's retconned one day. Probably won't, but this typing triggers me the most.

>>29523731

Agreed. If they hadn't abused that typing, it would have been great.

That smug snake wants to dominate and humiliate its opponents, not just harm. And its atrophied limbs could coincide with reliance on psychic power.

Why Psychic Serperior? I don't think "He's smug and can't use hands" is reason enough.

Why Dark Emboar? Aside from the Black coloring, is there anything that suggests it is mischiveous or something? Just asking.

Fighting Samurott makes sense.

If that was what they were honestly going for then they should have made Magikarp evolve at Level 50 or something to justify it turning into a Water/Dragon

Though saying that, in Gen I, a Water/Dragon would literally have no weaknesses since the only other Dragon move was Dragon Rage that always did a smooth 40 damage. Gyarados being a Water/Flying might have literally been done because of balance. Though the rest of the games balance was fucked still
