The Pyromancers: Fire-type Pokémon Club

[Wicked3DS]

A new perspective I hadn't thought of until this morning:

Making Groudon Ground/Fire would make it 4x weak to Water, giving Kyogre a HUGE advantage. There would have to be a counteracting move to balance it out if you ask me for the sake of the Land vs. Sea element to hold some weight.

 

[Hiatus]

Hm, yeah, that would make it pretty weak against Kyogre, wouldn't it? Well, to fix that, perhaps they could make Kyogre part ice-type? That way, Kyogre would be weak against most of Groudon's fire-type attacks in-return, which would balance things out, sort of. :]

Reason(s) for liking Fire-types:
I've just really liked them since the very beginning. I feel like they're feisty and powerful and would be nice companions on a cold winter's night. :P

Should we include Groudon as a Fire-type?
Legitimately, until this very moment I didn't know (or had forgotten) that Groudon wasn't Fire type as well as Ground.

Mind = blown.

But anyways, to answer the question, I feel like it should be considered a Fire type. When I think Groudon I conjure images in my head of volcanos so I feel that the Fire just needs to be there.

Welcome! Winter's night? Heck, it ranges from 10-20F around here nowadays when it's normally 30-45, so I'd have one at all times now. Definitely agree with the feisty and powerful part too.

Also it seems that the general consensus for Groudon is yes, so I'll go ahead and add it to the list.

 

[Kikaito plush]

I don't think they should add fire to Groudon's type as like other have said it would be weaker than it is now.

 

[Demon Wolf]

Even if he is weaker think of the pros its more than cons

 

[Hiatus]

I don't think they should add fire to Groudon's type as like other have said it would be weaker than it is now.

Groudon's already got quite a ton of fire attacks in its arsenal, though, like I said in my previous posts. If they do decide to add fire as one of its typing, it'd be gaining STAB in all of those, which is a definite plus. :P

Yikes, sounds chilly! I'm so glad I live somewhere that it rarely goes below 0 (32 Farenheit).
Yes, a fire pokemon would be a great companion where you live. :P


I think it would be awesome to finally get the STAB on all the fire attacks Groudon learned, if they added Fire to its typing. That's probably why I thought it was fire all along, those darned fire attacks tricked me. :P

 

[Wicked3DS]

Yeah, as much as 4x weakness would be a pain, it still would absolutely wreck house with the boost to its already great Firepower.

Also, the chilly isn't as much of a problem as the 10-15 inches of snow that we're getting today. Go, Charizard! Melt all of this stuff...bah.

 

[Hiatus]

Oh, this gives me another topic idea! To melt snow away as fast as possible, which fire-type would think do the job best? Remember, this has to be done fast, so the Pokémon needs to be strong and extremely speedy. Try not to use legendaries. :p

 

[Wicked3DS]

This is an awesome topic! I'm going with Talonflame as it is the fastest Fire-type there is, plus it can fly, giving it the best view and ability to cover a lot of ground.

Or you could just get Camerupt to use Eruption :P

 

[Hiatus]

Camerupt is actually quite slow, though, so I would imagine it to take some decent amount of time before it actually starts erupting. xD" As for Talonflame, I totally agree--it could do the job pretty well. Another would be Blaziken, because, well, it's got Speed Boost. Due to that, the more occupied it is, the faster it'll become. Within only ten minutes, it could be out-speeding many legendaries.

 

[Wicked3DS]

Camerupt may not be fast, but it would do the job in one fell swoop. And yes, Blaziken would be awesome once it got going.

By the way, does anyone know if I can remove the poll since I don't really need it anymore?

 

[Hiatus]

Ah, yeah; once it's got lava erupting, it would melt snow in an instant. It'd be causing some major havoc on its way out, though. Anyway, besides that, I think another Pokémon could be Volcarona. By using Heat Wave, all snow would be gone an a blink of an eye.

Also, you could try asking either Olli or an s-mod to remove that poll for you, Wicked. ^^"

 

[Kikaito plush]

Marcargo could melt the snow as it's body it the hottest thing on earth.

 

[BadPokemon]

But what if Groudon got a move called Evaporate? It hits water and ice type super effectively. Similar with freeze-dry.

Hi, could I join? ~(^.^)~

Name: Fairytale.

Pick two Fire-type Partner Pokémon:Arcanine and Chandelure~

Reason(s) for liking Fire-types: I've always loved fire. When I was younger, apparently I would always want to light up candles and watch the fire moving. So when I first started playing Pokemon, I was just kinda drawn to to the fire types. Not only do they look cool, most of their moves are relatively strong. So, yeah. :3

Reason(s) For liking Fire-Type Pokèmons:
Its Natural! yeah you heard it right! I always loved Fire-typed (Though Wind is the strongest element) I just Simply can't explain, Born to Burn!!

To melt snow away as fast as possible, which fire-type would think do the job best?
Mmm.... Fire Blast? Flamethrower!?

 

[Demon Wolf]

i would say a charizard he awesome or a tyflosion both got a nasty heatwave cuz of special attack and they got speed also imagine a charizard flying round the hood using heatwave or a tyflision using eruption on the sidewalk
