Fire-Type Club v.2.5!
 
Fire-Type Club v2.5!

Welcome to the Fire-Type Club (version 2.5)! Since the owner of the last Fire-Type Club was inactive and a bunch of people were joining, I decided it was probably best simply to make a new one!

So here we are. As always, there are a few rules in addition to the usual Groups and PC ones. You shouldn't be disrespectful to your fellow members, no matter how heated a debate. You must not stray too far from the overall topic of Fire Pokémon and it is preferred if you stick to the topic currently being discussed. Anyone is allowed to make a change in topic, as long as the new topic will promote discussion. And everyone should post regularly! No slacking, guys!

Everybody who joins is eligible to choose ONE partner Pokémon! Your partner must be at least partially a Fire-Type and a list of all of them can be found here. You also have the privilege of being listed with your partner under the not very exciting member list that is further down the page! Woohoo!

Alright! Now that you've taken a look at the rules and all, you're probably wanting to join, aren't you? If you wanna join up, you gotta tell me three things and might wanna tell me another:

Your Name:
Your Partner Pokémon:
Why You Like Fire-Types:
Anything Else:

Have fun!

Rocket Grunt Cali September 3rd, 2011 7:17 PM

Your Name: Cali
Your Partner Pokémon: Vulpix
Why You Like Fire-Types: I'm all about offense, and Fire types tend to have fantastic Attack stats. A lot of them movepools that can accomodate wide variety of types (Poison, Ground, Psychic...), which makes them very versatile. And Vulpix, Flareon, Growlithe, Cyndaquil, Torchic, and Torkoal are adorable. ^_^
Anything Else: If I ever manage to get through a normal run of every Gen, I might go back and do an ultimate monotype challenge with just Fire types because I love these guys so much!


Aquacorde September 3rd, 2011 7:27 PM

Hi Cali~ An ultimate monotype, huh? Sounds fun, I hope you do end up doing it! And ofc reporting back to us on how it's going. ^_^

I forgot a topic, oh dear. D: Well, I'll steal one from the last club. Which generation do you think had the best fire-types?

Waking_Dreamer September 3rd, 2011 7:49 PM

Your Name: Waking_Dreamer
Your Partner Pokémon: Charizard
Why You Like Fire-Types: Fire is all about power and passion! Just like the element of Fire itself, it seems most fire pokemon are set up to live for the moment with intensity - in an all or nothing style!
Anything Else: In pretty much any game or fictional world I have had a great fascination with the fire element and its no different with pokemon. I am a little sad however that in the meta-game a lot of the strong fire pokemon are in the NU and UU tier. The new game mechanics and moves make fire pokemon generally unusable in competitive play except for a select few of fire pokemon particularly the fire/fighting combo - not much else.

okjoek September 3rd, 2011 8:08 PM

Your Name:okjoek
Your Partner Pokémon: torchic
Why You Like Fire-Types:Very powerful moves.Overlooked fact: Fire blast is the most accurate of the 120 base power attacks while others like focus blast, thunder and blizzard are 70 fire blast as 85 accuracy. Overheat is nice too. While a sun is up you not only get a bonus to fire moves but a quick solar beam too. Bye bye pesky water types.

Anything Else: I'l let you know when I think of something.


Faolan September 3rd, 2011 8:14 PM

Your Name:Faolan
Your Partner Pokémon:Arcanine
Why You Like Fire-Types:I love Fire types because they have a great designs.
Anything Else:I'M A BANNANA

Rocket Grunt Cali September 4th, 2011 1:21 PM

I just totally deleted my game of Blue by mistake, so what better time than to start my monotype challenge? :D I'll keep you guys updated ^_^

Aquacorde September 4th, 2011 1:52 PM

Hey, welcome all new members! I've got you all in the first post, hurrah~ Would you all like to tell me Which generation do you think had the best fire-types?

Awesome, Cali! I expect regular updates~ Or at least a link to where you're logging this. Are you doing it in the challenge forum here?

alisaie September 4th, 2011 3:42 PM

Your Name:BinaryPeaches
Your Partner Pokémon: Quilava kthnksbye. <3 i would totally choose litwick but I have that as a partner in the ghost fanclub derp :P
Why You Like Fire-Types: I love basically every type, and fire has it's good point and bad points that I like about them.
Anything Else: If I was able to have two partners I would ttly have Volcarona, but that's okay. |D

Which Generation do you think had the best fire-types?
To be quite honest I'm not too sure. I think I guess I'll choose the first generation because Vulpix, Growlithe, Charmander, Ponyta, and Flareon. All of its generations have it's fire types though... except sinnoh. Other than the starter there was really only magmortar and heatran, which honestly isn't much. :/

Rocket Grunt Cali September 4th, 2011 3:52 PM

Anna: Yeah, I'm doing it in the Challenge forum ^^ Right now I'm having some issues with my emulator so getting started's kind of slow going (and by slow going I mean I've had to listen to Oak forgetting his grandson's name like eight times) but I'm getting there!

Anything Else:

Avishka September 6th, 2011 6:14 AM

i wanna join

Your Name : Avishka
Your Partner Pokémon: Charizard
Why You Like Fire-Types: because they have powerful moves

Which Generation do you think had the best fire-types?
i think gen 1 has the best fire type pokemon.

Aquacorde September 6th, 2011 2:15 PM

Welcome, everyone~ Seems like Gen I is well-liked in terms of fire Pokémon, but I'd have to say I like Gen III best. There weren't a lot of them, but I really, really liked the ones that were introduced. :3

So let's move on to a new topic~ What Pokémon really makes you appreciate fire-types? Which is the fire Pokémon that you hold in highest regard, and why do you think it's so special?

The Last One September 6th, 2011 2:27 PM

Which Generation do you think had the best fire-types?
Gen 2

What Pokémon really makes you appreciate fire-types?
that would be the Gen 1, 2, 3, & 4 starters...

Rocket Grunt Cali September 6th, 2011 2:30 PM

What Pokémon really makes you appreciate fire-types?

When I was a wee lass of seven, my first ever Pokemon was a Charmander, and I lovingly raised it all the way up to Charizard, which I proceeded to destroy EVERYTHING I fought with, even Water types (something I am unreasonably nervous about even trying nowadays *coughmonotyperuncough*). Even when I was little and didn't care a BIT about stats, I knew that that thing was a powerhouse. Mix that with Fire types like Growlithe (squee!) and Vulpix (double squee!), and you've got an instant Poke-pyro on your hands! Charizard's no longer my favorite Fire type (that honor goes to Vulpix, obviously), but I love it dearly for being the one that started it all.

Faolan September 6th, 2011 6:26 PM

Which Generation do you think had the best fire-types?
The Second Generation.
What Pokémon really makes you appreciate fire-types?
Well, Houndoom. Mainly because it's the best Combination of types. Dark/Fire.

Avishka September 7th, 2011 4:32 AM

What Pokémon really makes you appreciate fire-types?
that would be Charizard and Chimchar

Charicific September 7th, 2011 9:06 AM

I was looking for this :)
Please sort me out:

Name: Charicific

Partner: Infernape Please!

Why I like Them?
Hehe, they are beastly, they are overpowered and they have cool personality, I mean have you seen Charizard and Infernape?! Fire Types have this Unique Design and Personality! I LOVE THEM X)

Anything Else? Well, allow me to clarify I didn't choose Charizard because he and Infernape tie to #1 Pokemon for me, I chose Infernape however since not much choose him :/

Generation with Best Fire Types: Well, Gen IV didn't have much, Gen V in overall wasn't perfect, so I will stick with Gen I.

Which PkMn makes me Appreciate Fire Types: The answer lies in My avatar Picture. Charizard and Infernape. While I was an "Old School" watcher, Charizard was my favorite Pokemon and my First ever. I realized later that my choice was right after seeing him turn into the strongest pkmn I've seen in the Anime. Almost the same with Infernape, except, I didn't think I will love Infernape as much as Charizard......I was wrong....Now Infernape ties with Charizard with number 1 and seeing the Outrageous Blaze was something I will never ignore...That Pokemon is amazing, in terms of design and total power...makes me proud of my decision ;( I feel Proud ;( .....


One more thing: My Avatar SUMMARIZES Everything I said!

=(^.^)= September 13th, 2011 9:28 PM

Your Name: =(^.^)= or Paws, I don't mind either :3

Your Partner Pokémon: Flareon, please. I was surprised no one had taken it yet >.>

Why You Like Fire-Types:
They tend to be adorable as well as powerful <3 Plus I hate the cold and love the heat and summer, so they're perfect to me~

Anything Else:
  • Which Generation do you think had the best Fire-types?
Well, I love the first generation the best. Flareon, Charizard, Growlithe, Arcanine, Magmar, Charmander, Charmeleon, Vulpix, Ninetails, they were all so good :3

  • What pokemon really makes you appreciate Fire-types?
It depends on the aspect of fire types that I'm appreciating. If it's their power, then I'd go with something like Charizard, whose flames can melt boulders, or Volcarona, who threatened to wipe out half my team as I tried to catch it on White.

However, if I'm admiring the beauty/adorableness of the fire types, I'd go with Flareon, Vulpix, or Ninetails. They all look very snuggily and perfect to hug on a crisp winter day. x3

PokemonFan5230 September 14th, 2011 9:16 PM

Your Name: PokemonFan, but feel free to call me Hill.

Your Partner Pokémon: Pansear

Why You Like Fire-Types: I started liking Fire Types when I got Colosseum and got the trading cards. I quickly appreciated the strength of Fire, and next thing I know I turn out to worship fire, as one of my top 3 even on other games, I worship fire's power.

Anything Else: For the answer to Which Generation had best Fire-Types I would have to say Johto.

For the answer to what pokemon really makes me appreciate Fire-Types:

Charizard of course, he was among my favorite pokemon, I used him in nearly all my Colosseum battles, and relied on him the most. I also like Chimchar and Pansear from fire, mostly because I like monkeys.:D

ohHeyVaporeon. September 14th, 2011 9:33 PM

Your Name: Just call me... Tommy Joey.

Your Partner Pokémon: Flareon.

Why You Like Fire-Types: Fire-type Pokemon have a certain... Mystery to them. They are strong, but they are loyal. I've always really liked them.

Anything Else: For the answer to Which Generation had best Fire- I don't know that I can answer that. It's always been a close thing to me, and I'm not sure that I can pick just one generation.

For the answer to what pokemon really makes me appreciate Fire-Types:

Flareon, or Ninetales. Both have a certain unique quality to them, and that's what actually made me fall in love with them in the first place. I'm not shy to admit it... I have at least two or three teams of both.

Tetra September 17th, 2011 1:06 AM

Name: Mark
Your Partner Pokémon: Heatran, :3
Why You Like Fire-Types: Some fire types are cute! However most of them have got a good attack stat, and I love the designs!
Anything Else: Heatran is my fav Fire Type. :P;

Hikamaru September 20th, 2011 9:56 PM

Your Name: Hikari10
Your Partner Pokemon: Chimchar
Why You Like Fire Types: Fire-type Pokemon have very diverse movepools with most able to use SolarBeam. Also, Fire Pokemon are great physical sweepers and some of my fave Pokemon are of the Fire-type; Chimchar line, Cyndaquil line, Tepig line, Litwick line, Reshiram.
Anything Else: Since Pearl, I now tend to use a Fire-type on my main teams to remind me of Ash in the anime. I chose Cyndaquil in SoulSilver as a homage to Dawn's Cyndaquil from the anime.

Blazing Flare September 28th, 2011 11:01 PM

Name: Blazing Flare

Partner: Blaziken

Why Fire:
Well for one, out of the elements of nature I think fire is the coolest,
and that was translated well to the pokemon universe, in my opinion; a lot of the designs and moves (even the animations)
are a well made blend of cool and powerful, and that sits well with me.

Anything Else:
Certainly, fire types have very basic weaknesses to consider, but that, in ways, is a good thing, if weaknesses are
well defined, they can be counteracted, and fire types are versatile enough to dish out high damage and finish the job in a variety of scenarios.

Generation with Best Fire Types: Despite liking Blaziken, Hoenn has a very bad selection of fire types in my opinion.
I could never get to like Torkoal (although its mighty, I'll admit), Camerupt (looks silly, the circles make it look like a bus),
and Macargo (again, doesn't have the badass / cool look fire types usually carry.

So I'll wager that the best selection for fire types is probably in gens I and II,
discounting starters (they were always awesome to me).

Which PkMn makes me Appreciate Fire Types:

I think again, the answer is Blaziken here.Granted, Charizard is a cool dragon
and Typlosion is a super aggro wolverine ready for action, but, dunno, fire-fighting just sounds right as a dual type,
and the only other that gets closer to Blaziken in coolness is Infernape (sorry Emboar, you're cool, but not as much!, still like ya though).
As a final note, I like Flareon, Rapidash and Ninetales too of course, even if they tend a little to the cute side, they aren't sicknengly so
like Blissey and the like.

Blazing Flare October 18th, 2011 9:04 PM

Would be nice if the club was more active, where is everyone?
