    I really hope it doesn't evolve... since to me, it's just Aipom all over again - just this time without an evolution. Same for Hihidaruma.
    Hiyappu, Baoppu & Yanappu Discussion (new water/fire type monkey)
    Err.. Hihidaruma evolves from^

    also I'm hoping for Yanappu to evolve into Grass/Fighting, but Acrobat seems to point to Grass/Flying, which would also be cool considering its not a bird XD
     

    Ho-Oh

    used Sacred Fire!

    I mean Hihidaruma evolving INTO something. Wasn't that confirmed fake anyway? /can't keep track of what's real and what isn't.

    Aaand flying seems unlikely, to me at least. Grass/normal I'm betting on.

    The picture above you is fake but Darumakka is actually real.

    What does acrobats have to do with an actually flying? Nothing.

    In fact, it's people that do acrobatics in real life and do we fly? No. We just jump really far, can have really great balance, and are very versatile. Hence, acrobatics.

    Acrobatics =/= flying

    @mistadude I know its fake but I couldn't find a picture of Darumakka anywhere else
    @Surmonter One of its moves, possibly its signature move is Acrobat, which is CONFIRMED to be a flying type move.

    1. No it hasn't. Serebii and every other site lists it as "??" because the type is unknown. It being a flying type is rumor.
    2. That wasn't what I was even trying to say. I wasn't saying Acrobat wasn't a flying type move. I would actually be surprised if it was Flying. I was saying it wont be a Grass/Flying type when/if it evolves.

    Ponyta knows Bounce. Rapidash isn't a Flying type.

  • it looks very unoriginal, like a cross between chimchar and turtwig/torterra, no? ... not saying I instantly don't like it, but...

    The only thing it has in common with Chimchar is that it's a monkey. So you might as well say it also looks like (insert all the other monkey Pokemon.) The only thing it has in common with Turtwig is something related to plants on it's body, which most grass types do. :/

    Acrobat could be:
    - Flying
    - Poison
    - Bug
    - Fire
    - Ice

    It makes more sense for Acrobat to be Flying.

    More reason why it's not a Chimchar knock-off. :3

    - Flying

    - Bug
    - Fire
    - Ice

    It makes more sense for Acrobat to be Flying.
    I don't get what you're trying to say? I said that Acrobat could be flying, and it makes sense for it to be. But it could be something else.

    Are you just agreeing with me and adding more detail? :/

    It could be Fighting or Normal too.
    But Flying makes more sense since Yanappu is flinging itself into the air and across the field to attack.
    Then again, great physical exertion = Fighting. /shrug

    Actually, the reason it can only be Flying, Ice, Bug, Poison, or Fire is because it was used against Tsutaja in a battle and was Super-effective.

    Out of those, it's safe to assume it's Flying.

    Oh right, good call. I was wondering why the types were so awkward in the list... /didn't see the Acrobat video yet

    You guys have sharp eyes. ;D
