We don't fucking know if we don't know what its relationships are with other types

I'm severely disappointed in this fandom. Nevertheless, Zygarde would be Slime/Dragon in its lesser forms, and replace Slime with Ground up in the chain.

Reminds me I had a weird dream last night about Pokémon Z being revealed and Zygarde got 4 new formes. They were fucking weird, and one of them looked like a green Stantler with 4 oblong horns.

Just make Fairy resistant to Dragon instead of immune, it was stupid as hell anyways. Dragon should resist Rock as well, just like Fighting does.

playing along, in order for it to work as Fairy was supposed to it needs to balance out existing type discrepencies, so:

weak to:

>Ice
ice needs a niche again as a more premier offensive type and it makes sense, slimes will solidify in cold.

>Poison
would now make Poison strong on 3 types so it would have a decent chance for getting coverage slotting.

>Bug, Psychic

resistant to:

>Fire, Water, Ground, Fighting

resisted by:

>Rock, Grass, Poison, Dragon

strong against:

>Fairy, Dark, Ghost

move retypes include: Sludge bomb, sludge wave, Gastric Acid, Muddy Water, Mud bomb, Acid Armor...

thinking about it, dunno if it holds together as a type.

A lot of this would actually work, but being weak to Bug and Psychic, and super effective against Fairy, Dark and Ghost just doesn't make sense. The rest does though, so even if it doesn't fix absolutely everything, it still does a lot of good.

How is this a meme? There wasn't any gap years between Gen 5 and Gen 6 and only a single gap year between Gen 6 and Gen 7.

Yes. So Gen8 will release 2018 or 2019

Not him. Gen 8 is in 2018. NOT 2019. Which is the exact opposite of what you said. Fuck off.

No it is not. I said either 0 or 1 gap year. If Gen8 is 2019, then there'd have been 1 gap year. So it fits perfectly within what I said.

Also, nice pulling out of your ass. We have no way of determining whether it's going to be 2018 or 2019.

I guess job listings, the recent Nintendo investor call, and Reggie literally saying its in 2018 has no relevance at all, huh? Learn to lurk more Gapfag.

Oh yeah? How about actually providing a source to that claim. Or are you referring to the "lol we hire some Maya workers" and the jap dude saying "oh you'll hear a tad bit more about it in a year" as an official release date announcement? If you actually have any concrete proof of the shit you're saying then I'll gladly eat my words, but otherwise fuck off.
