Fixing every single solo type starter pokemon by giving them a secondary dual type that makes sense!
#pokemon - Ігри
Dragon deez nuh..... I love it! Good work on this one bro! I agree with most of these that you pick. It does make sense making meganium a psychic type. Can't wait for future things like this. Love the new style too
thank you thank you!
Bro feraligator can be water-ice
You said you wouldn't do fairy for meganium as fairy was gen 6 what about steel gen 2
steel is so much closer than fairy so with the logic of proximity i feel like it fits lol but tru tru, lets make blastoise part bug type 👍
Mega blastoise should have been Steel I agree with you
@@XatumiI mean....not a starter but Clefairy was Gen 1 and became Fairy later on.
@@matthewroberts198 This. I was kinda confused when he brought up the fairy problem when he just did Blastoise in the same way
Steel while a fitting type for blastoise I agree, cannot work, since then blastoise is now neutral to grass instead of weak. The only reason it works in gen 4 for empoleon is because torterra gains the ground type which still makes torterra good against empoleon, to change blastoise, you’d also have to change venusaur as well, loved the vid btw
At the very least, *Mega* Blastoise should’ve been Water-Steel.
Charizard X’s partial Dragon typing neutralizes its former Water weakness, and Mega Venusaur’s ability Thick Fat cancels out its Fire weakness. Water-Steel Mega Blastoise would then take neutral damage from Grass.
Oh well, maybe it’s something they can use for a Mega Blastoise X whenever they get to Gen 6 remakes.
Cant believe people are asking for xy remakes lol
@@marciaquispe4472overall it's one of the only Pokemon games that needs to be revisited to really close off a page in the franchise, you could say we still haven't seen the original dragon but overall Gen 6 has so many cutted areas and is in a dire need of a better story.
@@asafesseidonsapphire the thing is, its just weird lol. i want it but like getting a 2d game remake into 3d is normal, but when you think about a not too old 3d game getting remade... yeah.
@@marciaquispe4472we’re gonna get em anyways lmao
Thick fat also halves vensaurs ice damage to only neutral
Dragon type for starters isn't really balanced tho, considering that starters should teach about type triangle and if type triangle breaks, it also breaks the entire reason why starters are grass, fire and water
Yea, it would make it a no brainer to take totodile
I think if you make their weakness have a secondary type to get around it it'd be OK. Like Grass/Dragon is gonna be smushed if Fire type is part Ice, and it'd still fear Fire/Bug, Fire/Poison and Fire/Fairy. Fire/Dragon would fear Water/Ground, Water/Rock and Water/Fairy
It's Water/Dragon which is really broken because Grass would need to be Fairy or Ice, and no-one wants a Grass/Ice starter until they fix its defensive issues
Actually I think that would allow him to make Meganium fairy type to keep the triangle
@@tko-bx4bd what about dragon type Serperior and Sceptile tho?
@@redjirachi1 nop bro every starter is must be effective and weak too main anouther starter type what if you rival is have water dragon starteryou are pure grass is break a balance
Lot's of great ideas!
If generational typing weren't an issue, I absolutely would have made Meganium a Grass/Fairy type as well! But if we're ignoring that fact that Blastoise is Water/Steel when Steel was introduced in Gen 2, then why not Gass/Fairy for Meganium?
I actually thought Serperior should be Grass/Psychic. Psychic types often have a majestic vibe, while also appearing a bit snooty or "superior" to others. It's very much the vibe of Serperior.
Cool video idea! Here’s what I think the new types should be, based on what makes sense thematically:
Blastoise- Water/Steel
Meganium- Grass/Fairy (or Grass/Dragon)
Typhlosion- Fire/Normal
Feraligatr- Water/Dark (or Water/Dragon)
Sceptile- Grass/Dragon
Serperior- Grass/Dragon
Samurott- Water/Fighting
Rillaboom- Grass/Normal
Cinderace- Fire/Fighting
Inteleon- Water/Dark
Lots of Grass/Dragons but it fits their theming too well compared to other types, what with them being reptilian. This is obviously not balanced though. I don’t know if we’ll ever see any Dragon type starter in the future, and if we do, it will be a departure from series norms which would be cool
Blastoise, well sure it has canons, so steel works.
Meganium... Grass/psychic. Fairy type did not exist before gen6 and well.. it learns a lot of psychic moves and manipulates feelings with the scent... Dragon type doesn't really work cause well it's not a dragon and doesn't really fit dragon type.
Typhlosion.. Yeah fire normal would work ig. Kinda like pyroar.
Feraligatr.. Water/dark definitely. Dragon type doesn't work cause again, it's an alligator, and doesn't really have anything to do with how dragon type is.
Sceptile... maybe. but won't it be a bit too op to add dragon type?
Serperior.. well... maybe. Maybe. but again would be too strong.
Samurott... Hm, why not?
Rillaboom, yeah.
Cinderace.. taht works too ig.
Inteleon, well.. is a spy.. so maybe? but then we'd have like three water dark types...
And no. About dragon fitting grass starters.. Just because it is a reptile it does not make it a dragon. That's why Charizard is part flying type. because it's not a dragon, it is a dragon looking, fire breathing salamander/lizard. It doesn't really have anything inherently draconic besides the look.
Same goes with grass types. I mean. Altaria is part dragon, but it's not a dragon at all, it's a fluffin bird. Just because something looks like it should be some type, doesn't mean it is that type.. nor if it has some type, doesn't mean it IS that type.
Like.. if it looks reptilian it should be dragon type doesn't really work... If you want to go with it, make all snake pokemon part dragon. I mean.. they are reptiles, right?
@@enoraltheoutcast Yeah, I agree actually. If it was an option, I wouldn’t actually add a secondary typing for them; however, if I had to choose a secondary typing, them being reptilian makes them more fitting for dragon types than the other types imo. Kinda like Cyclizar. Idk what other type would fit Serperior, and Sceptile’s mega is literally a Dragon type. You make some good points
@@beanburrito4405 Mega evolution is temporary , it won’t last forever, also Ampharos gets a dragon type in his mega , shouldn’t he be a part dragon type too?
Dragon type sceptile would be so valid because it already has a cool design, iconic pre evolutions, and it’s viable in a play through. But it’s lack of a cool second type makes it the 3rd best option in the generation with THE BEST starters
The whole rule to not give some of the starters the Fairy type because it was introduced in Gen 6 after the Pokémon's first appearance doesn't really make sense since you gave Blastoise the Steel type. The Steel type was introduced in Gen 2 so when Blastoise was first made, there was no idea to give him a dual typing that simply didn't exist. I say just give the Fairy Type to whoever, just like you did with the Steel Type.
true but proximity, steel is closer to gen 1 than fairy is to gen 2 or 4
@@Xatumi Yea but we've already seen Pokémon from other gens receive the Fairy type way after they were released, including Gen 1.
@@Johan_4587 i see what you're saying in that regard i guess it makes sense. I was thinking more so in line with firered/leafgreen remakes have steel in them. Lets go pika and eevee have fairy in them, but neither gen 2 or their remakes have fairy in them. This was my logic, but your point is also valid.
@@Xatumi I see what you mean, that makes sense. The only thing is that the Fairy Type was added to Gen 1 Pokémon before Let’s Go came out so that part doesn’t line up quite as well. And it seems like we’ll get a Johto remake soon based on some leakers information and rumors. Either way it’s a valid set of rules to use for the current year.
@@Johan_4587 a johto remake, oh yes please!
Honestly Septile has so many hint of being a dragon type (appearance, moves, egg group) that it being a Dragon type with his Mega was a pretty obvious thing to do
I think Feraligatr being part Dark would.make more sense since gen 2 was when they introduced the type
Only issue is that this change makes Grass/Fighting just as common as Fire/Fighting.
Chenaught, H-Decidueye, and now Rillaboom.
I'd have gone Grass/Dark, because while Meowscarada has it, Rillaboom does learn Knock Off by levelup.
I feel less people would complain about it if there were a good amount of non-starters that are Fire/Fighting
Grass/normal would be better imo, as normal is the default type of sound based moves and, you know, rillaboom is a drummer.
Inteleon can become invisible... But he simply isn't a ghost😂. The dark type for an assassin is perfect
Pokemon fans when they see a reptilian starter: My good sir, have you ever considered being a dragon?
Serperior gives off dark type vibes to me more than dragon. Being snooty and arrogant makes it a great candidate for it
Psychic type on Meganium actually makes sense since it's the "Herb" pokemon and herbs often are used for "magic" psychic things
spicy i like it
I always thought that Feraligatr was Water/Dark for some reason. Maybe it was all the rom hacks I played
Guys… unova starters being a mix of the cycle in secondary typing interaction of gen 6 starters
Grass psychic (illusion snake)
Water fighting (honorable samurai counter part to ronin hisuian)
Fire dark (the pig friend with dirty ancient martial arts that is homies to SUNWUKON the inspiration to INFERNAPE?) come on people
"That's so repetitive"
Also Him: *Turns all his grass types into grass/dragon*
oh man wait till you see the next video dropping 😂
I'll always advocate for a Grass-Normal Rilaboom. It'd make his Boomburst and Uproar stronger, leaning more into a sound-based pokémon (the dude carries a drum all the time, and gigantamax into a full drumset, so... yeah).
I'm glad someone considers Dragon as a secondary typing for Feraligatr. In fact, if only the Johto Starters got Mega Evolutions, I could definitely see Mega Feraligatr as dual Water and Dragon as not only does its regular form look fairly dragon-like and that it can learn Dragon Dance, but it would complete the trifecta with Mega Charizard X and Mega Sceptile, and Charmander, Totodile and Treecko are basically like the definitive bipedal reptilian starters of their respected regions. I even considered Fairy as a second typing for Mega Meganium, though Psychic could also work, and I am torn between Steel or Ground as a secondary type for Mega Typhlosion. Wish Game Freak would have done just that, because for some reason, the Johto Pokemon are the most criminally underrepresented Pokemon throughout the series.
I'm glad someone else finally gets it! I'm tired of everyone suggesting fighting type for Feraligatr because it doesn't fit its mischievous and violent personality. In pokemon, fighting types are supposed to represent and stand for justice and chivalry. Feraligatr is not that at all. It's the only Johto starter with a canonical body count in the pokedex. Feraligatr is a bloodthirsty, violent beast, hence why I don't think the fighting type fits it. Like yeah, guy is ripped af, especially the Crystal sprite, but people gotta understand that muscles don't always equal fighting type.
Which, yeah, would make dark a lot more fitting, and probably the best option for it, because it better fits its character design. It also wouldn't mess up the starter trio balance by quad resisting fire and not being weak to grass anymore. So dark is a good choice. Stab on bite and crunch, and it could learn other dark type moves. Not to mention an immunity to the psychic type. It would gain a lot more weaknesses (grass, electric, fighting, bug, and fairy), but it'd still be decent. Like, look at Tyranitar. It also has a fuck load of weaknesses and it's still a menace and a threat.
But Dragon would've also been great for either a mega evolution or a regional form/variant or something because it definitely looks the part. Especially because it's true that Feraligatr would complete the elemental type trifecta with Charizard and Sceptile; of lizard-y, reptile starters who can learn dragon moves, and have very similar designs at base. Bipedal, clawed hands, thick tails, fangs (in the case of Charizard and Feraligatr at least), strong legs, similarly shaped snouts, and a little round in the middle. All 3 of them follow that same design recipe, coupled with the more monstrous, kaiju looks, so it makes sense that they'd be a trio, justifying Feraligatr's Dragon typing, since the other two got it in their megas.
All in all, dark is good for base form Feraligatr, Dragon would be perfect for a regional variant. Fighting makes no sense. So yeah.
@@evawhite1144 While I see where you're coming from with Feraligatr having Dark as a secondary typing, I am more on the Dragon camp as I find that Dark would be a bit redundant as we have a good number of dual Water and Dark type Pokemon, including Mega Gyarados, Carvanha and Sharpedo, Crawdaunt, Hisuian Samurott, and Greninja, whereas with Water and Dragon types, we have only a handful which includes Kingdra, Dracovish and Tatsugiri, not counting Palkia since it's a legendary, so to me, Feraligatr having a Dragon type would be more fitting, not just to go with Charizard and Sceptile as an elemental reptile trio, especially for a Mega evolution, but to a balance out the dual Water types as we don't see much Water and Dragon typing, plus with its good stats and ability to learn Dragon moves, it would give Kingdra a run for its money. Not to mention that there's already a dual Dark type crocodilian in Krookodile, and Skeledirge shows that not all crocodiles are Dark types since it is dual Fire and Ghost. On the other hand, Feraligatr could have a second Mega evolution where it is Water and Dark, just as Charizard has two Megas, with X being dual Fire and Dragon and Y being Fire and Flying.
"My dad and ghost types" got me laughing
A Starter should NEVER lose it's weakness to the other starter he was already weak to. Nor gain a weakness against a starter he was resistent to.
Empoleon begs to differ
@@Noseihtam266 I know what I said. Thats why I emphacized the word "never".
@@OrdemDoGravetoSo are u saying u have an issue with Empoleon existing.
@@devilrider39000000😂
I like Water/Flying for Intellion. Sure it seems odd, but it does glide, and learns some good flying moves like Air Slash, Air Cutter, Acrobatics and also helps in the proposed Matchup vs Rillaboom with its Fighting typing
makes sense i like it!
It breaks the type triangle.
yeah bro intellion is base on fying lzard is make sene but is break the triangle
And 4x weak to electric and now weak to rock. Brilliant 👏
This presents the same issue as making Blastoise a Water/Steel type. It makes the primary type that's supposed to be good at it neutral, and the secondary type resisted(immune in the case of Blastoise).
"unless you're Glaceon or Umbreon fan"
Bro called out 80% of Eevee fans
The gen 2 starters need more recognition, in general
POV pokemon fans when a Pokemon is monotype
Ya damn right
Giving Normal to Cinderace then fighting to rilaboom AND ghost to Inteleon seems like a HUGE nerf for the bunny. I personally would've make it a Fire/Rock since it kicks fire boosted rock and probably give inteleon a flying type so that we get the reverse triangle rock->flying->fighting->Rock
This was an awesome video. I have always felt that some starters were missing secondary types that would fit well with them. I would like to see more videos of adding secondary types to Pokémon that you feel they need it.
Honestly that’s a great idea! Gonna add it to the list
@@Xatumi Thank you I’m looking foward to those videos of adding secondary types to Pokémon that you feel they need it.
6:26 “that’s so repetitive, I’m not gamefreak.” He says in the same life time of saying that samurott should be part fighting when emboar is also part fighting.
true
my thoughts:
Blastoise- Water/Steel
Meganium- Grass/Fairy
Typhlosion- Fire/Ground
Feraligatr- Water/Fighting
Sceptile- Grass/Dragon
Serperior- Grass/Dragon
Samurott- Water/Fighting
Rillaboom- Grass/Fighting
Cinderace- Fire/Normal
Inteleon- Water/Dark
The only issue that stands out is your choice for the Galar starters.
Rillaboom now has super effective attacks on Cinderace, a Pokémon that is used to deal with Rillaboom.
Already grabbed my pitchfork. Cinderace being Normal type feels like quite the stretch.
Honestly, Samurott would have been a "top G" if ti was bipedal like it's previous forms.
It can stand on 2
Absolutely agree. Dewott is my favorite design of the 3 and I was so hopeful to see something cool for the final stage.
tbh i think the only reason samurott isnt part fighting type is emboar. both of those guys seem like such obvious fighting types that idk what else they would. be though
The problem with Water/Steel Blastoise is that Steel resists Grass, so Venusaur would have nothing to hit Blastoise with.
Water/Dragon is bad for Meganium, because Dragon resists Grass (Which means Meganium needs to be part Fairy instead of Psychic). Water/Fighting for Feraligatr also works by the way, since it has brass knuckles on its arms.
thats pretty solid honestly, good points
Gatr doesn't have brass knuckles 😂
@@devilrider39000000 Look at the patterns on his arms. Clearly brass knuckles inspired.
@@nickdentoom1173 Those are just scales
This thumbnails simply just going to be the reality of this Pokemon for me in a week
5:18 but Emboar (the other Gen 5 starter) is already part Fighting, you can’t have 2 starters in the same Gen that are part Fighting
you're right ill give serperior fighting as well
0:18 the let him cool had me in tears and it’s just the beginning of the video, well done 😭 ahhahaha
“It looks like a snekkkk”
Here’s my choices for all the mono starters’ possible secondary typings:
*Blastoise* - Steel. If not, maybe rock. But it gets a decent amount of fighting type moves.
*Meganium* - Fairy or Psychic, maybe dragon.
*Typhlosion* - Ground or rock. I think rock fits better, but fire/rock is a bad defensive typing, so I don’t want to do that to this line.
*Feraligatr* - Fighting, Dragon, or Dark could all work here and I’d be happy with any of them.
*Sceptile* - give it Dragon like it’s Mega. Honestly though, it gets access to a ton of Fighting type moves, so that would also work.
*Serperior* - Dragon, Poison, or maaaaybe dark.
*Samurott* - Bug (for that Megahorn STAB) or Fighting, as a counter to its new Dark variant.
*Rillaboom* - Ground, maybe rock or normal? They gave it a normal Tera type for the 7 star raids, so 🤷♂️
*Cinderace* - Electric. I don’t want another fire/fighting starter, but it could also work.
*Inteleon* - Bug or Dark, maybe Ice. Ghost or Poison miiiight work but idk, I don’t see those ones really working.
solid!
Also Cinderaces second signature move is normal type so Pyro ball for fire and Court change for normal, makes sense surprised you didn't use that as an argument
May as well make all the gen 5 starters part fighting type at this point. That would be the ultimate troll after the two fighting/fire types in the preceding gens.
Dragon makes sense for Feraligator and some of the others because back then any large reptile was considered a Dragon.
6:31
THIS is the one you wanted to give the fighting type to.
lol
Flareon with stab facade is nice
Raichu being fairy makes sense cause azumarill is so it works with raichu
Giving Typhlosion the ground type hurts so much for the type trio and your rival taking the 4x super effective water type
I've ALWAYS thought Cinderace should be Fire/Normal. Totally agree there. And Feraligaror Water/Dragon or Dark.
I couldn’t see it.
I was glad they didn’t do fire fighting again but to me personally the normal type means just that, normal.
Meowth is just a cat - normal
Tauros is just a bull - normal
Lechonk is just a pig - normal
By adding an elemental type to anything already negates it’s normalcy especially in Cinderace’s case where it was a rabbit with fire powers who turned into a rabbit farmer(?) with fire powers and finally a full fledged futbol/soccer player wearing a rabbit costume who also happens to have fire powers.
@@Gameboy_Graci thematically moves like mega kick and headbutt fit Cinderace and the normal type would give it stab. Also, it starts as a normal bunny, evolves into a sporty kid in dark leggings, a windbreaker and headband. Then finishes as a pro sports player. All very human (normal) like themes. I think Seaking could also benefit from adding the normal type
@@macsyn4558 for the STAB definitely I’m with you.
I do think the dual normal typing could work on birds and fish Pokémon because they are in fact just birds and fish (lol) plus added STAB as you stated before.
Excellent point!
Cinderace really out here earning its spot as the worst starter.
Blasphemy
personally think dark type fits base typhlosion more, considering its dex entries on not only its literally explosive, easily set off rage, and that it uses heat shimmers to sneak attack foes, but also it haveing honey badger inspiration could very easily lean towards dark as well considering how nasty those critters can also be
Think also if you change the Hidden abilities would make them better aswell, like in Rad Red Maganium has Triage or can give Typhlosion Drought
My opinion has always been that a starter trio should either all be mono type or all be duel type. I get so mad when they mix and match
No base starter can have dragon type imo because it breaks the weakness circle. IMO an essential part of starters is that fire is weak to water, water to grass and grass to fire.
1:17 this wouldn't be true anymore if blastoise becomes a steel type
6:17 That joke made me subscribe 😂
I think Samurott should be Water Steel, Emboar already has Fighting and its armor and blades are a big part of it.
I'd love to see more type fixing/improving videos. One such trio that literally *NOBODY* talks about are the Lake Trio - they're all Mono Psychic-types, and trios usually have that one type to set them apart.
Azelf is Fighting/Psychic because it's Offense-based, Mesprit is Fairy/Psychic or Normal/Psychic as it's more Balance-based, and Uxie is Steel-Psychic because it's Defense-based. And just give them moves of those respective types so they got more STAB material to work with.
Honestly great idea, adding it to the list!
@@Xatumi Like, I can understand the Lati Duo being the same type because their stats are opposite, but with a whole Trio sharing a type, it feels like a waste to me. A shame, too, because they've got such cool designs.
Samurott as steel/water was right there 😂
Grass Ground makes more sense than anything for Rillaboom. Gorillas are ground based apes and Rillaboom learns a good amount of Ground moves. Unfortunately the only Rock moves it knows is Rock n Roll.
lol rock and roll
I wouldn't give Intelion the ghost type only because I think as a chameleon it makes sense for it to make itself invisible, it doesn't need to be a ghost type thing. At least that's what I think😅 I don't know what other type I would give it though.
As for the other starters: beautiful.
I specially need those Feraligatr, Typhlosion, and Samurott double typings.
here's a little bit of my thoughts here :P including just a couple that I think should be changed
Blastoise: Water/Steel
Charizard: I'd change to Fire/Dragon
Meganium: Grass/Fairy
Feraligatr: Water/Dragon
Typhlosion: Fire/Ground
Sceptile: Grass/Dragon
Samurott: Water/Fighting
Sceptile: Grass/Fighting
(this makes the whole trio part fighting)
Delphox: I'd change to Fire/Fairy
Galar trio: Either give all 3 of em Normal or leave all 3 mono types. As much as I like dual types, sometimes Pokemon only need a single type. I like for starter trios to either all be mono or all be dual so the options are all still balanced out. So for the gens where 1 or 2 were mono, I'd give them secondary types. Gen 2 and 8 are the only ones to all be mono, but in the case of the Johto starters, I think the secondary types are a little needed, or at the very least much appreciated. With the Galar trio, I don't think it's needed. So if arguing for the sake of EVERY starter being dual type, I think they should simply all be Normal. Otherwise, I like them as mono types.
Eeveelutions: 1000% agree on all being dual Normal. Imagine playing through a game with all Eeveelutions and pulling up to that Ghost gym LMAO
Raichu: also 1000% agree on Fairy. Ever since the fairy type was introduced I wished Pikachu and Raichu were part fairy. They definitely look fairy-like, and are part of the Fairy egg group as well. Moves like Dazzling Gleam, Draining Kiss, and Disarming Voice, I think would fit well.
Making one of the 'type trio members a dragon (or the Fairy Delphox) seems to break the balance by a lot.
For Delphox, it means the fire type (which already is highly powerful against all of Grass's weaknesses) also can beat the Grass and Water's Fighting and Dark types.
Fire Dragon is OP as is.
Water Dragon has only one real non-dragon weakness, being maybe Ice, and eventually Fairy.
Grass Dragon, strangely, is most balanced because of Grass's 5 weaknesses.
A Trio of Fighting Types for Unova could fit, but how about a Fight-Rock-Fly triangle? Rock for Samurott, Fly for Serperior.
Kanto’s excuses are that ONLY the Dratini line was Dragon type in that Generation and Steel type wasn’t invented yet
I’d be down to let the idea of a Grass/Psychic Meganium cook
right!
I think feraligatr and serperior are fine without the dragon type because they both do great in competitive
Rillaboom thematically should be normal type because sound moves are mostly normal type.
These are quality. I like it!
Onto the next one...
Glad you like them! I have so much more!
It's awesome seeing all the different ideas people can have. Looking forward to checking out the Field Effects video, and all your other ideas come to life.
Such great content and fun delivery.
8:43 At the very least nobody would use them against fighting types to begin with since they have 0 coverage right?
truu
Meganium in Radical Red where it’s grass fairy was one of my favorite Pokémon in that game. They also gave it the ability Triage (priority to healing moves including giga drain)
Meganium may make the game harder but I don’t care. Because it’s my favorite johto starter
“My dad and ghost types”
Dope video though
Blastoise probably has more metal on its body than some mons with the Steel typing. I mean, the cannons... that's probably more than Lucario, yes?
facts!
Charizard fans seeing Sceptile and Feraligatr get the dragon typing(They love feraligatr and sceptile as well)
I believe Inteleon should have the Psychic type! 🔮
interesting
@@Xatumi Can you please re-heart my comment, I edited it, thank you!
Meganium would be much better to be Grass/Fairy than Grass/Psychic type. U-Turn is used a lot in comp play.
Inteleon already learns shadow ball. It's a special attacker.
I was thinking Typholsion might be a good dark candidate
i like sceptile as a mono grass type...what sucks about him its his movepool and the fact that he is a special attacker. Maybe ground could work for him, but yeah, change his sp attack stats with its attack stat and give him a better ability like technician.
I always thought Typhlosion should be fire electric. Why? Thermoelectric. Volcanos produce a ton of electricity when they erupt, which Typhlosion seems to be referencing more so than the volcano itself, but that’s just me.
B4 anyone makes the "not everything needs to have a 2nd type" argument, just know that we've had fire/water/grass trio for more than 25 yrs & dual types r the only way that GF shakes up & have smth different for our starting buddies to dish out aside from their usual primary type. So don't even try to come up w that ok.
7:17 ok...well damn 😅
Agree! Gave starters final evolution a mono-type is very disappointed and basic. Think about it, Gamefreak already give mono-type from Gen 2 and Gen 8 isn't best idea for Pokémon Company. What if Game freak hire fans for making the best idea for the starters would make their design gain popularity. Fans should share idea for Game freak and Pokémon Company bring their design to share in a group.
Inteleon should've been Water/Ghost dex say, It has many hidden capabilities, such as fingertips that can shoot water and a membrane on its back that it can use to glide through the air.
Dragon type will be too OP for the starters.
The problem with making every starter dual type however, is that it makes the starters feel less special, especially since you can only do so much with a typing.
Like, i am personally growing sick of a dual type fighting starters (No matter the combination) and Dark is heading that way really fast as well.
Which means Inteleon can be Water/Flying as well, due to the membrane.
Yeah adding the steel type to Blastoise would make the defense stronger but it will be become weak to ground type moves
I can see most of them having those secondary types, however, I think that Serperior should be part Poison Type, Samurott as part Steel or Ice, and Inteleon as either Poison or Dark.
Serperior is literally based off of one of the only non-venomous snakes.
@@alphadroid_131 if, then Psychic type was also another idea I had for it.
@@alphadroid_131 That and grass/poison is the least original type combination in the history of Pokemon.
Bro really called Sceptile a loser
with my whole chest
I've been wanting a water/steel Blastoise ever since gen 2. Also fire/normal Cinderace is a bold pick I like it.
Thank you thank you
Feraligatr with Sheer Force, Life Orb, Crunch and Dark Tera is actually hilarious how hard he hits.
Ok time to give my opinion again:
Meganium: making it a grass/fairy type would be better rather than grass/psyquic. Sure both are 4x weak to a type, but if you do it part psyquic, it would be 4x weak to the most common bug attack: U-Turn. While grass/fairy sure it'll be 4x weak to poison but poison attacks are very rare to see.
Typhlosion: I mean it kinda makes sense.
Feraligatr: absolutely yes.
Sceptile: sure. Its mega is part dragon anyway.
Serperior: I think making it part poison makes more sense.
Samurott: while I agree to be part fighting we already have Emboar so idk.
Rillaboom: it kinda makes sense I guess.
Cinderace: I guess there's no other option.
Inteleon: like I said in the other video, ghosts type pokémon are dead pokémon and Inteleon is not dead so I think giving it the dark type makes more sense.
Raichu: just no.
The Eeveelutions: N O.
Damn you’re the first person to not like the eevee change
@@XatumiI see where you were going with part normal but I think it defeats the purpose of Eveelutions in the first place. You use a stone to evolve them. By giving them part Normal, you defeat the point of giving them the stone
New Legends Trio: Water/Steel Blastoise, Grass/Fairy Septile, & Fire/Physic Cinderace
Pardon me, these guys are all perfect as they are and don't need a second type stapled on for the sake of HAVING a second type!
To be a bit more serious and less hyperbolic, I legitimately don't think any of these guys need second types. I think Game Freak carefully thought them out and concluded that monotype worked the best for these thematically. And I'd have to agree in all cases. (I'm assuming this video is just a thought experiment and you don't actually take these AS seriously as the video's tone implies.) But because I think this is an interesting topic, I'm gonna deconstruct my thoughts on each.
Blastoise: It needs the Steel-type because...it knows three Steel moves? Heck, Iron Tail isn't even relevant to Blastoise's theme and it only gets Gyro Ball by TM. I do think Steel Blastoise might be cool (assuming Game Freak wasn't afraid of ticking off purist fans by retyping it), but I think it's a bit overblown here.
Meganium: ...Okay, Grass/Psychic is a bit of a stretch for it, but I honestly have a soft spot for that combo in general. I'm a bit torn on it gameplay-wise, though--as you acknowledge, Meganium is meant to be defensive, and Grass/Psychic has more weaknesses AND more resistances than mono-Grass, and I'm not sure which would outweigh the other. (And in what world is Meganium bland; it's cute and sweet and a friend!)
Typhlosion: ... ... ...Eh, sure, Fire/Ground works. Don't think it NEEDS it, but it's probably the most justifiable AND interesting change on the list.
Feraligatr: I think this is proof of how Fighting, Dark, and Dragon are (aside from Normal) the types most prone to misuse if you get too lax with the type qualifications. I don't like Feraligatr, but it's not because it's mono-Water; mono-Water is perfect for it.
Sceptile: Mega Sceptile's precedent is enough that I wouldn't argue this one even if I thought it was a terrible idea.
Serperior: I'll say yes ONLY because Contrary Draco Meteor would be hilarious.
Samurott: Fighting works alright for it, but then you remember Keldeo exists and realize Gen 5 would have two sword-based quadrupedal Water/Fighting Pokemon with unicorn horns.
Rillaboom: What on Earth does Fighting have to do with drumming?
Cinderace: Another one I'm agreeing with for the funny.
Inteleon: I like Water/Ghost Inteleon in a superficial way, but for my taste, the supernatural aspect of Ghost clashes too much with how Inteleon's invisibility is supposed to be part of an allusion to spy/secret agent fiction.
Raichu: Honestly, this one is rivaled only by Feraligatr in terms of a "SOMETHING needed to go here so we weren't skipping anything" feel.
Eeveelutions: ...I legitimately can't decide if this is a terrible or an amazing idea.
Great video! Tho I think it's weird you wouldn't give Meganium the Fairy type on the basis that Fairy didn't exist until later gens, but you still gave Blastoise the Steel type. Steel was only added in gen 2.
Rillaboom He got the fighting type only because of the sound type Does not exist yet
6:03
Rillaboom
Super Saiyan Drummer
Rock Drummer
Rock Type.
USE YOUR INTELLECT.
how i would fix them (there are quite a few that i think i agree with you about):
blastoise: steel type is good
meganium: this is a dinosaur. it is a dragon type
typhlosion: it is a supersized rodent. it is normal type
feraligatr: it is evil, give it dark type
sceptile: mega is dragon, so it is dragon
serperior: it is based off of nobility, either fairy or dark (depending on your interpretation of the nobility)
samurott: it is an otter samurai, either normal (otter) or fighting (samurai)
rilaboom: fighting works, but imo electric, since that is closest to sound, and it is a drummer
cinderace: electric since flash, or normal, depending on rilaboom secondary
inteleon: secret agent means dark or ghost
I made a perfect type triangle for the galar starters Here's the triangle fire fighting cinderace water flying intellion and grass rock rilaboom
hear me out, Typhlosion being electric type. it fits because volcano eruptions can create clouds and lightning.
or poison, lava has poisonous gas and atributes.
Gives me azula from avatar vibes. I approve
@@Xatumi if you get fairy type to meganium, it would also fit the theme of weakness, don't you think?
Grass/Fairy, Fire/Poison, Water/Dragon
I have always thought my boys Charizard, Feraligatr, Sceptile and Serperior HAD TO BE DRAGON TYPE ASWELL. I mean, those starters were my picks in their respective games because they're dragon/reptile/dinosaur inspired! Aren't those pokemon in the same egg group? The dragon egg group?? Give 'em already the secondary dragon type gamefreak!!
-A dragon (reptiles in general) enthusiast.
Edit: You said you wouldn't give Meganium the fairy type, because it's a second gen pokemon. But when fairy type was introduced, lots of pokemon from previous gens got the fairy type aswell. Aren't for example, Snubbull and Granbull fairy types? 2nd gen pokemon. There's no reason to not give Meganium (or any starter from 1st to 5th gens) the fairy type, if it makes sense. I also like the odea of giving fairy type to Raichu. Aren't other Pikachu clones fairy type? Why not giving it to the whole Pichu line too? I think Pichu fits the fairy typing too.
Meganium is the best starter by far! Don't even try to sell me on typlosion.
0:43 you do know that with another typing comes a whole other list of weaknesses, right? Make it a steel type? Now it loses to a fast fighting or ground type. Good job 👏
Heres my opinions.
GEN 1:
Blastoise - Steel (we have empoleon at home) 🔥🔥🔥🔥
GEN 2:
Meganium - Rock (because its like a dinosaur)
Typloshion - Dark or Ground
Feraligatr - Fighting
GEN 3:
Sceptile - Dark (Not Dragon because it would be too OP)
GEN 4:
None.
Gen 5:
Samurott - Rock (because of shells)
Serperior - Dragon (I gave this to Serperior because it like a Serpent. Sceptile is a reptile but should not give it Dragon tbh)
GEN 6:
None
GEN 7:
None
GEN 8:
Rillaboom - Normal (Its a fun type)
Cinderace - Electric (a fun type again)
Inteleon - Fighting (we have Poliwrath and Keldeo but I want another one)
GEN 9:
None
Meganium as a psychic type, I don't think it does much to it for a defensive mon. I'd give rock, steel or even dragon, but steel would be awesome for a defensive pokemon with screens, leech seed and so on!
Mr stake is amazing
Or a better ability, atleast something like thick fat
I should note that the Steel Type wasn’t introduced when Blastoise was
It did seem like a somewhat missed opportunity on not giving the Galar starters a second typing. Given Rillaboom is a pretty large bruiser, Inteleon is good at appearing/disappearing in a flash, and Cinderace is the speedy one of the trio.
