New topic for discussion-

Which Pokemon do you think should or shouldn't be Psychic type?

Butterfree definitely should be Psychic type in my mind. So should Psyduck and Golduck. They learn tonnes of Psychic moves and seem to be somewhat built around it, so surely they should have the typing too! D: As for one which shouldn't be, I'd go with Solrok too. That should definitely be Fire/Rock in my mind. Plus with the Levitate to escape the x4 Ground weakness, I don't think anyone will complain!

Wob should've been Normal type. It has a happy go lucky baby form, has huge HP but low attacking stats and looks like a balloon. All of these can be reasons for a Normal typing.

And I've wanted Golduck to be part Psychic ever since RBY! Its counterpart Slowbro was so much better with the dual typing and Psychic typing seemed so cool back then. It enraged me to no end thinking how Golduck, whose was one of my favorites design-wise, wasn't part Psychic even though it could learn Psychic moves (some even through level up) and evolved from a Pokemon that had "Psy" in its name.

As for one which shouldn't be, I'd go with Solrok too. That should definitely be Fire/Rock in my mind. Plus with the Levitate to escape the x4 Ground weakness, I don't think anyone will complain!

No one except for the Solrock trainers who'd get swept by a Luvdisk's Water moves :D.

Anyways, I think that Gothita line should be dark type instead of psychic type. They just strike me like they should be dark...possibly a dual dark/psychic for the last evo. though

This is the reason why I really think Golduck should be part-psychic type. Look, it can learn Psych Up. It evolves from Psyduck. It can learn Psychic. And it is known for a cool temper, high IQ, and a mind-bending qualities. Why is it not psychic type, but the rock duo (Sol and Luna) can be considered, seeing as they are just floating rocks, that resembles the cosmos.

Name- Sector Revenge
Starter- Aurora the Latias
Reason for joining- Psychic Pokemon is up there as one of my favorite typings (with Fire and Dragon possibly). It would be a fool of me to not join! :) Plus, they are awesome! Having to ability to do things with your mind? Who wouldn't want that!


★ Which is the strongest Psychic type Pokemon?
This is by far, Mewtwo. No questions asked.

★ Which Psychic type legendary is the best?
The best? Mewtwo would be the best since his movepool is very wide.

★ Which is the best looking/most useful Psychic type move?
Psystrike from Mewtwo is my favorite move, and the most used is by the move named itself..Psychic.

★ Who's the best Psychic type Gym Leader?
I've always loved Sabrina, especially her new looks in the 4th Generation gaming.

★ Which Psychic type has the best shiny sprite?
380.png
475.png


★ Which Psychic type just needs a new sprite/design?
Lunatone and Solrock definitely. I think they are just bore Pokemon all around

★ *Which Pokemon should or shouldn't be Psychic type?

I just want to mention, we don't have a Ghost/Psychic type?? Why don't we?
May be shocking to those but...I definitely think Gallade should just be a Fighting type.

Well, Gallade could be just a fighting type, but the whole Ralts family is Psychic type, so you should just keep them Psychic type.

Why? i think Gallade is pretty awesome being part Psychic. I mean, he could accomplish a lot more.
I guess so, due to its entire family. (Family doesn't really necessary mean you have to have that specific typing though)

Does anyone even use Psychic attacks with Gallade?

Sorry for not being here for 2 days, guys! I'd been really busy :(. I'd like to draw your attention to the new event I planned. Check out the OP for more information. Oh, and welcome to the club, Sector Revenge. It's been a while since we had a chat, hasn't it?

Sayan, did you see my new 2 userbars?

Yes, I saw them. Not a single pixel of this thread goes unnoticed by me. But please bear with me for a little while, I'm thinking a nice way to add all of them to the OP without making it look cluttered.


Don't you think the text in that userbar is a bit too messed up? You should use some other tool, userbarmaker.com really messes up the text.

Sorry, it was the first userbar I had ever made! I think I'll go custom from here-on out. Anyways, here's a picture of the PoTW! (Or not...my computer is being extremely glitchy right now...my mouse doesn't work. Only my keyboard.)

I do. My Gallade has a Psycho Cut on him. Too bad he is a Psychic type who possessed the curse of having a greater attack. However, like Metagross, he makes it up for several other stronger unSTAB attacks.

anyway, this is my entry for the event.

Type: Psychic/ Ghost
Species: Composition Pokemon
Abilities: Mold Breaker/ Magic Guard
Pokedex Entry:
Black: Known to be a playful spirit, Cantao is said to lure weary travelers to their death with its fine melody.
White: Cantao is said to be a playful spirit. Sometimes, the tune it plays drives nearby people to dance.

Image:

Spoiler:


I will try to post a clearer picture sooner or later.

EDIT: Here is a much clearer picture! I have edited it a little to make Cantao a little more... ghost-like.

Spoiler:

I want to enter the event too!
Name: Cosmotent(etymology: Cosmo, and Omnipotent)
Type: Psychic/Electricity
Species: Galactic Energy Pokemon
Abilities: Guts / Own Tempo
PokeDex Entries:
Diamond: COSMOTENT was formed when leftover energy concentrated itself into a being. It has a high mental power, and is made of pure energy.

Pearl: Formed in space, COSMOTENT has strong mental power and is made of pure energy.

Platinum: COSMOTENT is a rare creature from outer space that was created when leftover energy concentrated itself into a living being.

Black: Formed in space out of raw energy, COSMOTENT has high mental power and is full of mysterious power.

White: It was at first thought to be a legendary pokemon when astronomers first discovered it, then a large group of them were discovered in an empty part of outer space.

Image:
My computer is super glitchy...I most a image of it soon. But, take this small description for now due to them all being formed of leftover energy, they look different. Like Spinda's spots, Cosmotent can change slightly in appearance. Mainly, they're body parts are random. They can be missing a right arm, a left arm, a left leg, or a right leg. The missing part kind of has a stub where it should be. Also, the eyes change position on the face like Spinda's spots. Overall, it has a greyish, whitish body with a hint of a kind of salmon-orange color outlining it.

darkpokeball: Interesting idea. I'd like to see the different forms of Cosmotent. :)

limanya: hey, why not? Also... Not to sound know-it-all, but your dex entries does not sound like dex entry. or maybe it's just me.

I'd like to see more of those telephatic gems. :)

Thanks! But, I'm a terrible artist. If you're willing to deal with preschool-like drawings, then I might post a pic.But, Cosmotent really only has two forms: Male and Female. The rest are like Spinda's spots...not new forms for every pattern, but rather normal. There are only two variables: Which limb is a stub and where the eyes are placed. Maybe the stub limb can create a different form, I guess.

I haven't been active much so here I go with the event:
Name: Psylora
Type: Psychic/Grass
Species: Mother Pokemon
Abilities: Leaf Guard/Magic Guard DW: Healer
Pokedex:
Black: Extremely protective, if her child is in any way threatened, Psylora will ferociously guard it like a Kangaskhan.
White: With her magical touch, Psylora can bring back trees, flowers, and even small animals back to life.

Psylora can only be female. I had a male counterpart, but I can only enter one. About her design, I'm thinking along the lines of a lion fighting with special attack while the male counterpart has a mane and fights with physical attack. I most likely won't make an image because I don't have the time. Maybe I'll draw something in art class...
