Amg, grass+fighting is my favourite typing, resistance to rock+ground combo is sex :3 I hope they are all OU material, we'll see what else the new generation brings.

Please, Virizion is cool (although not particularly good)

Based purely on typing, Grass+Fighting actually seems to be the best. Fire+Psychic isn't going to be pretty when it's weak to Stealth Rock on the way in and weak to Pursuit on the way out.

Oh yeah, also I forget who was interested, but:
The new newbie game just got posted in the Mafia subforum, and LoL mafia will probably be starting in a couple months, so if you were interested in learning and want to play in newbies before the big leagues, now's your chance!

DONT DO IT. Next thing you know you'll spend an hour pouring through filters trying to find ways to make accusations without seeming like a bad guy. Jk, it's fun, even though I'm bad. I was gonna take a break but I couldn't pass up playing with Monte. Voting to lynch him day 1 npnp.

TheYango do you play Pokemon competitively? Because your knowledge on Pokemon astounds me. (I mean that in the nicest, sincerest way possible)

I used to be somewhat into it a LONG while back, not in any capacity recently.

Blame Moonbear for getting me on the X/Y hype train recently.

is x/y even out yet?

It feels like they just released b/w 2 a couple months ago.

Then again, I didn't play it so how would I know..

IMO I'm actually unhyped for X/Y from those videos. Black 2 was interesting for awhile but I got bored of leveling and X/Y seem identical aside from being pretty 3d, having "mega evolutions", and three new starters, all of which have zero effect on how fun or how fresh the game would be for me.

I will say though that Breloom was a favorite of mine back in the day.

A week from Saturday.

The only thing I don't like about Grass/Fighting is that I'm going to get the event Torchic, so if I go my previous starter combo of Torchic/Squirtle/Chespin, I'll have 2 Fighting starters and that'll feel strange. Torchic/Bulbasaur/Froakie gives Fire/Fighting, Grass/Poison, and Water/Dark, which is a more even spread but I'm unsure of how strong each is.

Now I'm just going to want to get both X and Y ;;_;;

Is this the first time Dark has been matched on a starter?

I briefly stole my little brother's White 2 and enjoyed it a lot. It was the first Pokemon game I'd played in a while. The formula hasn't changed at all, and I think that's why I like it - nostalgic enough while still looking pretty and being a fun game. That's probably why I'm most psyched for X.

Yep, this is the first Dark starter. The first Psychic as well.

I'd love to have a Bug type starter. Bug is the coolest type, way more cool than Dark or Dragon or whatever.
Actually Fairy is the coolest type. But bug is the 2nd coolest. Bug/Fairy pokemon anyone? :3

I'm betting Steel/Fairy will be a dope-as-shit Typing.

Note that I mostly just THINK it's cool and have done no analysis about it.

Steel/Fairy seems somewhat redundant. The main thing about Steel is resistance to Dragon, but Fairy is immune to Dragon already. It's like, overkill.

Water is a good type, especially with the addition of Boiling Water (eng. name?), they don't have any good physical moves though (Waterfall lol) and they are very much so not cool. Good, but not cool.

False, a Frog Ninja looks awesome.

I kinda wish I knew more about taking advantage of different types and their strengths and weaknesses, but I never put the time in the figure it out. =(

Water not cool? Scip I thought you were a decent folk. I am sad. Water has an abundance of annoying, uncool Pokemon that are just Surf fodder, but they have more than their share of cool ones.

Name me 1 cool water pokemon without mentioning Gyarados.
Okay, Suicune is kinda cool but he's a legendary so he only half-counts.

Frog Ninja, please. Pirates have been proven to be 176% better ever since Piratebay has been created.
