>>52877231Theme teams are fucking kino...when they're intended to be themed, Flint's team was an awful mishmash of Pokemon still tied to the typing of Fire, giving us dumb shit like Sunny Day Steelix. The literal only reason his team even had that """theme"""" is because there were no fucking Fire Pokemon in DP Sinnoh and in every subsequent fight with him, those being in PT and BDSP rematches, he has a generic full fire team, so even the games shit on your argument.
So his theme is shit and poorly executed, and he drops it the split second he isn't restricted by a dogshit regional dex, almost like GF only went for this "theme" out of desperation because they realized they put a Fire boss in a region with no Fire Pokemon, rather than wanting to do the interesting idea of giving up on typing and focusing on themes.
Iris' team is S tier because it's full of dragon-like Pokemon that also don't get swept by a guy with Ice Beam, you're full of shit, these two teams are not the same because one was intended and the other was a last resort. Kill yourself.
