Did Pyroar getting shoehorned the normal typing work to its advantage or detriment?

STAB Hyper Voice, and it's so frail anyway that the Fighting weakness hardly matters

Basically any Pokémon with a secondary Normal typing is disadvantaged by it

In exchange for a fighting weakness you get STAB from a mediocre attacking type and none of the diversity of a mono--Normal's movepool

Why do people want Normal to be combined with everything again?

Normal/Ghost would be okay

Normal and Fire stab gets good coverage.
Its poor abilities are what let it down.

Ghost immunity? I mean it’s not like you have to deal with anything other than fighting types

Normal hits everything except Rock, Steel, and Ghost for neutral damage

>STAB from a mediocre attacking type
Normal is a great stab to have, it's neutral coverage is crazy. As long as the other stab is neutral against Steel, Rock and Ghost it's solid.

In Pyroar's case, Fire hits Steel for SE and Ghost for neutral, so it only has to worry about Rock

It gave Pyroar the distinction of being the only Pokemon that can resist Ghost + Fairy coverage.

Normal is a good stab to have if you are a physical attacker, or get Boomburst.
Return is a good stab. Boomburst is an amazing stab. Hyper Voice is not a good stab.

>>37916461
Also this. Pyroar isn't good enough for its typing to matter anyways.

Normal/fighting is a good offensive combo. Hits everything except ghosts for neutral damage at least. Fighting covers the two types that resist normal, and normal hits tons of shit that might resist fighting. Give it scrappy like mega lopunny and it's just a easy "press button to do damage" pokemon

Hand over the fucking Gen 1 coverage then, it's just a matter of waiting.
Normal / Dark is quite nice offensively but it's stuck on an inaccurate and not very good 'mon.

Variety.

Having a kajillion pure fire-types with the same general stat spread and movelist leaves them redundant.

Nah Normal is very good spammable typing with very strong base power moves.
The problem is most normal types have very shitty stats because they're early game.

Advantage, STAB Hyper Voice is spammable and helps a lot against Waters. The lack of boosting moves, coverage, abilities, and raw stats are the bigger problem here.
