I think it's supposed to be a reference to my comic. But Xilfer, did something happen to draggy or something?

Anyway, I remember I joined because draggy told me he made this club, and I thought, hey I do like bugs. And I really liked the drawing contest, too.

Oh and welcome to the BFC Tombo I'll update the list for you straight away. Also, Xilfer I'll change it for you but try to be a little more cautious with your wording of your opinions.

Now here's a tricky little topic.

If you can remember when you joined this amazing club., how did you feel? Nervous? Did you join for the fun of it or do you really like Bug type pokemon? If you could help out the club in any way, how would you do so? What needs improving? What should change?
Um, excuse me? i wasn't being rude it's called being funny! learn to tell the difference, i wasn't insulting Draggy or anything, it's for LAUGHS! L A U G H S.
And it's only a reference to tkallab's comic.
And how was i supposed to know you were going on holiday? you never mentioned anything!
wording of opinions? what the?! i said don't look if your below twelve, if they had a spoiler tag that said 12+ or something i would have used it.

No, nothing happened, i would have told you if something did, i'm just Assuming Making a joke, besides, in the joke he's the hero saving the world from an evil gay doctor, technically it's an insult to whoever the doctor is not Draggy.
Curious sounds like N in the comic, LOL
As for the assuming command thing, that was part of the joke, it's not like i was gonna become the leader of this place or anything, leave all the handy work to Curious and Draggy, Z-ing!
Oh, and since i'm a queen bee i can make topics without approval so mine still counts.
Ontopic: I think Vibrava and Flygon are based on Dragonflies and Antlions, explains their ground type and their Dragon type, but i think they're mostly based on Dragonflies, with a bit of antlion due to typing and their pre-evolved form, but then, Adult antlions also look like Vibrava and Flygon so my assumption is:
Trapinch: Antlion Larva
Vibrava: Antlion Adult
Flygon: Dragonfly.
acctually that makes sense since Dragonfly, take away Dra and switch Gon and fly from their places, Flygon :)

I don't need to tell the difference. You can be funny but without using such words as 'hags' and such. I never said you insulted draggy nor did I think it. You might find using such words funny but to most people those words simply aren't. By wording of opinion I meant, they way you word things. Your post may be reference to the comic but still my point still applies.

By the way just saying "Don't look this isn't appropriate" lures more people to read it. Why not use other words?

And me going on holiday was sudden, I didn't have time to quickly prepare myself and post here to tell everyone.

Leeeeet's get back on the topic of bugs, shall we?

I see Flygon as a dragon and Trapinch and Vibrava as bugs. It's just that Flygon has some buglike qualities like the antennae thingies and the eye coveres, which look like compound eyes.

Youre right tkallab. But form co-owner to co-owner I just get a little frustrated sometimes..

I don't find trapich a bug type simply because I don't think it has enough bug like qualities/features to be classified as one. Vibrava on the other hand looks like a bug and it has some features/qualities of a bug.

So vibrava yes.
Trapich no.

I think Trapinch is an antlion larva, so he's definitely an insect in my book, just as much as Metapod or Burmy.

Ok, so i used a bad word, so what? i've heard loads of people mention the b word and so forth in this forum.
And F Y I I didn't mention anything about hags.... are you hallucinating? (Joke, don't fret)

Bah, when tkallab and i were chatting he found it funny, if someone didn't find it funny all the have to say is, that's not funny, and i would reply bad joke sorry, instead of all this jibber jabber.
besides, usually i'd say "i kid i kid" i must have just forgotten this time, that's all.
As for choice of wordings, it's not fair that if someone can say Bastard then i can't say gay.
and incase your wondering, no i wasn't insulting gay people, i met one once and he was quite nice! i was just referencing tkallab's comic, as mentioned before.

Agreements flushing in Trapinch is an antlion larva and Vibrava is either a Dragonfly or a Antlion Adult.
you know my google spelling correcting says that Antlion is not a real word, stupid google. even google translate sucks. LOL.

What the hell are you talking about?
Offtopic
if you mean the Trapinch Vibrava Flygon thing, it's not an argument, it's a topic, the only one i could think of.
Kicks? I am a respected member of the BFC, everyone here is my friend, i do not get kicks.

Anyway, i should be Ontopic.
Let's see, i say we start a new topic:
I think we may have already had this topic, someone tell me if we had, but:
If you could change anything on a Bug type pokemon, what would it be?

Who was that guy anyway?

Anyway, let's just drop that pointless argument. By responding to each other people just get mad.

On topic now, I would change Pineco and Forretress. I'd either make them look more like bugs or just make Pineco Grass and Forretress just Steel.

You're right...wait, he wasn't a member? i can never tell because there are so many long-lost members in this club...

I would Change Ledyba to part Fighting type, same with Ledian, they have boxing hands and they learn many fighting type moves, including Mach Punch, i don't see why they shouldn't be Fighting... it would be an interesting combination too, instead of always Bug Flying, Bug Poison, Bug Flying making it x4 weakness to Flying types, a trait wich it does not deserve.

Hi guy sorry for being absent for so long.
My internet was killing me!
I LITERALLY trew my modem through the window!!! :D

But, I'm back, for good I hope! :)
Anyway, Welcome Tombo, I'll add you right away to the list.
I'd like to thank my two awesomly awesome co-owners for keeping this place in top shape! ;)

Hmm, there seem's to be several current topcs:
@Xilfer's topic:
I think that trapinch is based on an antlion, and Vibrava on a dragonfly. How those two are connected beats me...
@another Xil's topic:
Well if I could change anything, I'd add a pair of legs to Ariados (spiders have 8 legs, duh), and two pairs to Drapion...
@Curious's topic
Well I've made this club so tehnically I can't answer it, but I love the topic nevertheless!:)

Guess Who?

Xilfer's topic: Trapinch is no where near looking like a bug, and its legs are like stumps! *laughs*
Xil's Topic 2: Agreed with draggy and ariados.
Curious.'s Topic: Yes of course! I wouldn't join the club if i didnt.

So um... what's up with this place?
Why isn't anyone here?

So a new topic to gring it up a bit:
Is there a Bug Pokemon that you haven't used yet and you think it would be worth raising?

There you are, Draggy! I was wondering where you were (now that I think about it, probably having a life).

I don't really use a lot of pokemon ingame, when I do it's usually Butterfree, Beedrill etc.

I ne'er had the patience to get a Burmy, so I never even got around to using Mothim or Wormadam.
There aren't that many strong Bug moves, I think that's the reason I don't use bugs a lot. The strongest I know X-Scissor, is pretty exclusive.

'Ello 'ello. Is it OK if I throw myself into this little conversation? Bug Catcher since good old Blue.

As for the topic, I've never really used a Drapion. It just never appealed to me. I'd rather give up the 4th Gen spot to Mothim or Vespiqueen. I have heard he's pretty good though so I might give him a god next time.

Well, you're not a member, but I think it's fine if you just participate in the conversation. You can also become a member, if you want.

I actually used a Drapion for a while in Platinum, but it was never that strong compared to Garchomp, Empoleon and Encore Raichu. A lot of bugs aren't that useful later on, especially in-game where all you need is sweepers.

Please and thank you Dragonite.

Tk- Yeah, bug Pokemon aren't exactly jaw-dropping, but they still pull their own weight quite well. I used Mothim in one of my main Wi-Fi teams back when I played Wi-Fi a lot. Worked wonders, I'm sure there were better Pokemon for what needed to be done but a lot of people see a bug Pokemon and they underestimate it so it's a give and take.

I know what you mean.
When people see Armaldo, they think "meh, one EQ and let's move on!", but you wuld be amazed what that pokemon can do!
Same goes for Yanmega. That thing can annoy the opponent so much that they give up on the match easily...

Definitely. Yanmega is a Pokemon that works wonders in a lot of situations if it has a proper move set/set up. Good luck getting a hit in before it without a move like Extreme Speed.
