>>47015316So, I'm assuming Dragon will finally be a starter type then? It would be balanced out by Blastoise's Steel typing, and maybe Venusaur changes to Fairy? Dartrix switched it up and surprised people afterall. Even so, Poison at least hits for neutral damage.
Design wise I can see what Game Freak meant by going back to more "simpler" designs, as Venusaur kinda invokes Torterra; the original is better of course, Charizard is just a basic Euro dragon, and Blastoise is some kinda Turtle/Bear with water canons on its back.
We've had so many drakes already so it may be hard for the basic Charizard to stand out. If anything, the water canon (where the fuck did they even come from?) evo will be this Gen's Greninja, Smash entry, show shill, etc...
