But Grass is weak against poison hence the example being fire/poison.

Yeah the secondary type triangle the starters have these past gens have been getting super repetitive, they really need to shake up what types they’ve been using next Gen. Personally I think they could lean into a doubly effective option, where the starter type triangle just goes in one...

Speaking of earth power, why in gods name isn’t it the grass type equivalent to ice beam on water types? Like I can get not giving it to all grass types just to not make things so homogeneous in the type, but like surely more then 12 grass types, 3 of which are part ground or rock btw, should...

Speaking of the origin forms, I wanna vent about Origin form Dialga. I hate this thing, I think it looks awful, it looks like they took Dialga cool chest plate and have choke on it. And the coloring of all cobalt blue with a random gradient with its legs and tail tips make this thing just look...

Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if it was done just to place more emphasis on using TRs as the source of a majority of the actually good moves, and when they got to that point they didn’t really care much about the TMs and where to place them relative to the gameplay so you end up with a lot...

I agree fully, if you make the new starters have Megas that could mean up to 6 starter Mons that are getting shafted by a lack of Mega. But making the Kalos starters get the mega, while having there be new regional variants for the final stages helps give Kalos Mons the attention they needed

Honestly the biggest twist of this entire direct wasn’t how Pokémon Z is now a thing, but the fact that it’s coming out in 2025. Which honestly, thank god, the games needed a breather for more development, or at least a few extra months. edit: I guess to give proper thoughts, I’m excited...

Honestly I do believe Hoenns location for Fly is perfectly fine, as mentioned the first half of Hoenn is very open the further in the game you go, so despite the treak being far it’s never to unbearable. Especially because of the shortcuts you’d have access to as you play through the game, like...

It’s honestly made team building on a current replay of X a bit of a drag trying to stick with only new Mons and Mons that I haven’t used in a previous Y playthrough. Like there’s four rock types, two of which are mutually exclusive fossils, three ghosts, two of which share the exact same types...

Man I just want the exp share to have a toggle. We got this right a decade ago with XY and later SUMO? Just do that, then at least you could interact with a lot of the games content like raids, auto battle and even regular trainer battles without worrying about over leveling instead of taking...

Also it just makes less sense, like in a Watsonian perspective the world of pokemon some places near towns and city would reasonably be farther from dangerous stronger pokemon. Take a look at Legends, Jubilife village is right next to much calmer groves and flatlands likely because its one of...

On the one hand, I do agree, Psychic honestly needs more buffs in general. But I'd hesitate to buff the type itself because of the potential for things that could change in unexpected ways. For example Tapu Lele was really hard hitting with its psychic terrain boosted psychics, and removing it's...

Zen Mode is an amazing content creator, i've always found it way funner to make balance changes that made reasonable sense from a lore, design and gameplay perspective and Zen is an excellent example of that type of content. I'd highly recommend his content as well

I feel like something they could stand to do to help psychic types is via better moves. We’ve been using Zen headbutt/Psychic/psyshock for so long that we could reasonably do so like what Fighting has had happen comparing gen 1 to 3 or even 4. Stuff like a Fire Blast equivalent, or the...

Not surprising, the anime loves to play fast and loose with the size of mons. Personally I love it for that, makes giant mons like the weather trio and wailord feel even larger while relatively smaller mons like Salamence or Charizard feel like proper monsters that you could use as a ridable mount.

The real reason Caitlin wasn't allowed to fight in gen 4 was never her psychic abilities going out of control, it was her mad sailor mouth:psysly:

Til that was a thing, man that really changes a lot of possible options.

There was a brief discussion on the availability of Mons in Gen 4 in the unpopular opinions thread, and I want to bring up an old comment I made on this like a year ago that would fit better here. And that’s just how insanely front loaded the most common choices of Mons were and how all of the...

I certainly wouldn’t mind the Mons that are built for doubles if they did way more of what indigo disk did. It’s still a little boggling how despite being the focus of competitive battling, it took them like 20 years to make another game/dlc that actually focuses on doubles; instead of making...

I’m fine with it for ORAS/USUM, I think it was handled pretty alright there, plus depending on how you look at it every save file and cartridge was a universe in of itself. What happens if one legendary was awoken, what if the other, what if both. But with SV I find it super freaking boring...
