I'm glad you appreciated the joke :D

I was expecting a murder glare.

That was quite the burn.

Spoiler:

As befitting of Maxie.

Team Magma is a Ground-type team :(

I generally think of fire when I think of magma, in the same way that I expected Lava-bending to be a Fire-bending art.

Though I guess the former makes more sense to be at Ground, or at least Fire/Ground, considering magma is used to describe the earth itself. Though you would think, under those circumstances, Aqua wouldn't have any problems.

In Ruby and Sapphire, Team Magma as a whole uses exactly as many fire types as they do ground types. That would amount to some extent of burning, I'd argue.

Surprisingly I only recently found out that Groudon is Pure Ground-type. So this could indicate that Team Magma is in fact a ground based team..

And then it of course decides to become part fire in its Primal state, mucking everything up. :P

I'm in the same boat, Hoenn. Or at least, I always forget.

But the change does work for a nice bit of balancing, and it makes sense as well. After all, what is magma without fire, really? Dirt? (That said, this change does make Kyogre more of a threat, I really don't see why Aqua has trouble with Magma). Though...when you think about it, this makes a lot more sense in terms of lore. If it were just Ground, the whole "Groudon and Kyogre create Continents" deal wouldn't really make sense considering there's no real duality between Earth and water and, in a real life sense, water and ground would basically simply lead to corrosion, as opposed to Fire and Water (or Lava/Magma and Water), which actually create land.

...Though I guess if one were to argue Earthquake it could work out, but even then, no real need for duality.

Primal Groudon's divine power of ****ing sunshine does render all water attacks utterly and completely useless, though. Not so easy to sprinkle it to death any more. :P

Ironically that does mean its only practical weakness is Ground.

223203

Oh, right! That was mentioned in that one trailer. Whelp, nevermind that Kyogre bit.

223204. Today was a crazy day in American college footbaw.

 

[Ivysaur]

Surely no crazier than Faroe Islands winning an official real football match, away (their first one in 19 years), against a former European Champion.

223206. Not that crazy, but a historical bottom feeder team that has been enigmatic and mediocre this season upset a team that was in the hunt for the national title on the 8th. Plus a several other games that disrupted the national title race.

I've met 223207 swedes in my life.

 

[alisaie]

223208.

That's... actually not a lot considering where you live.

 

[Ivysaur]

I have probably met way less Spaniards than that though.

223209

 

[Pokestick good times.]

223210

This all depends on how you define "meet".

 

[Twilight-kun]

223211

By 'meet' I mean I meet them in a dark alley and take their money

hoohoohoo...

 

[Ivysaur]

Then I'm afraid I have never met anybody :(
