Ive already made a topic here but hey i got some questions ive been coming up with for all the clubs so......
New topic! What real life bugs would you like to see made into bug type pokemon? Ill answer later i got some pokemon research to do! |
What real life bugs would you like to see made into bug type pokemon?
As long as we stray away from butterflies, then I'm fine with whatever. I'd like a firefly pokemon though! I'm not really sure how far they'd stray from the original insect but they could make it a bug/fairy and debut the typing. As far as evolutions go, they could probaby create a moth with a blue or yellowish glow? My only concern is that its first stage form turns into another Navi from Zelda though. :( A praying mantis wouldn't be bad either. There'd be two typing routes to follow, some great stats and it'd be a unique addition to the world of bugs. Throw in a faint hint of inspiration from Kung Fu Panda and you're all set to go. :] |

I think volbeat is a firefly but I think we need a better one :p maybe even bug and fire? haha haha that is a concern ive seen a great moth pokemon that's blue and ice and bug its super cool! Prayin mantis hmm we have one don't we or do we not? I think I remember one I don't think leavanny is a prayin mantis wait is it scyther? I cant get a clear image in my head haha. you know theres bee caterpillars butterflies pillbugs spiders dragonflies but theres a lot more they could make is there a cricket one? |
What real life bugs would you like to see made into bug type pokemon?
Something fused with a Dragon. I think less spiders and butterflies for sure. The first thing that comes to mind for me would be a praying mantis that would be like a Fighting-type. I imagine it to be something like Scyther (which is supposed to be like a mantis) combined with Gallade. We don't have any other than Heracross and I think it could be a lot more of a fighter look than a bug if you ask me. |
Welcome to new members!
On the topic, I think a shield-bug would be awesome. It might be the defensive bug-steel we're looking for! |
Ugh, I let this fall a bit dead over the past few days. New topic plz:
What type would you like to see paired with Bug-type? Keep in mind this doesn't mean that you can't say a type that's been done before. Water. Surskit doesn't really do anything since it's not a final evolution, so I think they could come up with something cool to fix that. Bug-type would nullify Water's weakness to Grass as well as give them a nice STAB to combat them with as well. I also would like to see a Bug/Dark-type as well. |
Name: Cream
Pick two Bug-type Partner Pokémon: BEEDRILL and Ledian Reason(s) for liking Bug-types: I find them adorable and cool! There's such a variety of bug types and they're all super interesting in their own way. Somehow, they comfort me. Answer to current topic: Which bug types do you feel are the absolute best when it comes to competitive play and which ones are great but need better movesets? Hmmm, probably Scizor? I've always had a pretty good time when using him competitively. I wish that my favorite bug, Beedrill, was better competitively. However, that might change because of his new mega! |
^M-Beedrill is the perfect glass cannon. Really really frail but very scary physical offensive prowess.
Too bad, def and spdef and even HP makes it really hard to be used. |
What type would you like to see paired with Bug-type?
Ice/Bug. I think it's one of the few types that haven/t been done yet? I'd like to also point out that if there are fire/bug types, then the former should work as well. I've even looked up a few ideas and some of them were pretty good! For example, someone proposed an ordinary bug type that branched off into two evolutions when exposed to 'extreme temperatures'. I'm guessing that's if the pokemon levels in a snowy or volcano area - it'll then evolve into either a bug/fire or a bug/ice. It was really clever, haha. A bug/dark or bug/dragon would be great too! We need more powerful bug types and one of the two would be perfect. I think the latter could look pretty cool as well. For the other ones that haven't been done, bug/fairy is also something that I could see happening in the near future. Bug/normal's a tad boring though since well... bugs are already pretty normal creatures. :p And yeah, I think water/bug could use an extra pokemon or two. Surksit wasn't too memorable of an addition, not to mention that its evolution changes typing anyway. At M-Beedrill, I haven't been keeping up with the competitive side of things. What sort of moves can it use and how good is it compared to other megas? |
What type would you like to see paired with Bug-type?
If we're talking what hasn't been already done, I would be up for seeing a Bug/Psychic-type. A lot of the early game bugs learn Psychic-type attacks early on (like Butterfree and Dustox), and there's Venomoth (which Sabrina uses in the Kanto games), so why don't we have an actual Psychic moth? Since we've gotten several facades for it we should get a real deal. |
On the topic, Dragon would be one type.
I thought Haxorus would be part bug when I saw it but I guess GF didn't want to go that path. |
What type would you like to see paired with Bug-type?
I know we already have a combination of bug-fire in Volcarona, but I feel it would be rather sweet if they were to introduce another! Since we lack legendary bug-type Pokémon (only one I'm able to think of right now is Genesect, which has been sort of underrated for a while), I believe it'd be great if this were turned into one. Bug and fire is a very unique combination, at least in my eyes; if you ask me, it's perfectly suitable for legendaries. Most legendary Pokémon seem to focus on special side of offenses, but I'd like to see this one turn to be more strong physically. Aside from that, I'm also hoping to see some bug-ghost Pokémon in future. Like Volcarona, we already have Shedinja, but it's pretty... unnoticed, unfortunately, so introducing another Pokémon with this typing would help, if you ask me. It'd be interesting to see how they take it! |
What real life bugs would you like to see made into bug type pokemon?
I'd quite like more centipede/millipede ones. Maybe a few more spiders? Oh! Or a snail! I love snails! =D What type would you like to see paired with Bug-type? I'd like to see maybe bug/ghost more. In terms of stuff that hasn't been put with bug type before, I'm a huge fan of the idea of mixing bug either ice or fairy. Hell, if they do another butterfly or moth one again they can always do bug/fairy and base it off this cute little guy. http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9ovurbb5G1rpxjywo1_1280.jpg |

I don't know how I skipped Dragon since I've wanted one of those since Gen IV when I got back into Pokémon "full time," but it's on the top of my list. Maybe subconsciously I just didn't want to say the same thing I always do :P
Is it me or does Vivillon give off a Bug/Fairy kind of vibe? |
Sort of but you can't really eliminate any other of its typings. Bug / Flying is a staple for butterfly pokemon and while I do get where you're coming from, it wouldn't make sense otherwise. While fairies can fly, they don't necessarily have the ability to soar up in the sky as most of them are land creatures. If anything, it could be a fairy/flying but then you'd have the problem of it not being an insect anymore. So yeah, while it's a nice idea - I don't actually think it'd happen. :(
And actually, Haxorus could be the first bug/dragon! I think its got potential with the fangs and insect-like body. :D |
I rather have it bug and fairy lol we do have a lot of bug and flying but both fit it! It'd be so much cooler with fairy bug though but its powerful how it is. It also learns fairy type moves so ya haha. I kinda hope it gets a mega... Along with butterfree hehe
|
It will stay Bug/Flying, that much I know, I was really just pointing out the design. Also I doubt the 6th gens will get megas until at least Gen VII, and I think that won't be for a little while yet.
|
That is rather true, if Beedrill got a Mega then Butterfree and Vivillon might be due for one in the not so distant future.
But a question is, since Vivillon has so many forms, what would it take the form of if it did get a Mega Evolution? |

I'm gonna roll the ball on the Pokémon of the week here. If you're familiar with my other clubs, you know what this is. If you're not, this is what it is:
Spoiler:
Ariados! Black/White Pokédex: It attaches silk to its prey and sets it free. Later, it tracks the silk to the prey and its friends. Man, what a sneaky little spider that is. I like Ariados. It's not a whole lot powerful, but it's really cool to me and it learns at least some good moves. It's not a typical Bug-type that will bombard you with status conditions (save for Poison obviously), but it likes to trap you in as a spider would. I actually haven't used one (at least since the G/S/C days, that would've been the only time), but I think I may when I start up HeartGold soon just to see what it's like. |
Wouldn't say little.... that is not something id use to describe him.... uhhhhh
omg if I saw that thing coming towards me in the pokemon world id scream and run scream and run just not risking nothing that thing is scary haaha I like ariados let me think umm koga has one on the hgss elite 4 and its annoying haha its not really a status effecting bug ur right hes more of x scissor attacker haha but this is pretty much the spider pokemon for me along with galvantula these two will scare u out of your mind both are more attackers and ive used galvantula but sadly haven't used ariados which I one day likely will haha. Does everyone else see ariados mainly in johto? that's where his home region is but I feel like that's where u will likely see and view him and I think hes the bug of johto haha atleast in my smart brain he is :P |
I'm a big Ariados fan, to be honest.
In my eyes, its design seems to be rather creative. The Ariados does have simplicity added here and there, but it's not too simple; to cover blank spots, it's got stripes surrounded in its body. Plus, its colors seem to match each other very well, which are yellow, purple, black, and dark pink. If Pokémon had existed in real life and we were to Ariados up-front, I'm sure not many of us would have trouble identifying it as poison-type, which it partially is, if I'm not mistaken! As far as battling goes, its stats seem to be decent, but I believe there are still some room for improvements (particularly in Attack, Speed, and perhaps Special Defense). Though, I'm sure they will be able to fix this if they plan on giving Ariados an evolution at some point in future, or even some mega-form (personally, I prefer former, but I believe either would do). |
Even though I hate spiders in real life, I'm actually okay with this one. Its bite could probably be deadly if left untreated but could you imagine how well it'd stand up against enemies? For example, a bird tries to swoop down for an easy kill but then gets stuck in Ariados' sticky web. That's what makes it cool in a way - it can scare or trick even the toughest of enemies. Ariados: 1 Birds: 0
Bug of Johto? I wouldn't say so necessarily but I guess it'd be more common than a Heracross, haha. Also I like Galavantula better but Ariados isn't bad either. It's definitely a rather forgotten bug type amongst others though. :( But yeah, who can forget Spinarak? Those eyes. :D |
