    Greetings, fellow trainers! I welcome you to...

    ☼ THE FORTRESS OF FLAMES ☼
    The Fire Pokemon Fanclub

    [PokeCommunity.com] ☼ The Fortress of Flames ☼ (Fire type fanclub)



    Introduction

    Fire is another name of passion. In the Pokemon world, Fire is one of the 17 elemental types, a primarily offense-oriented type focusing on a high-risk high-return playstyle. It is fragile, like a real flame; but while it lasts, it make its presence felt and if given the opportunity, it can result in devastation. Fire can have many fascinating faces; from the charming Ninetales to the cool Arcanine; from the ever-so-cute Victini to the awe-inspiring Ho-oh. The Fortress of Flame is dedicated to these magnificent creatures.​

    Ok, you're approved. But it would've been better if you had also discussed some of the topics.

    I used to choose the Fire starters in the earlier Pokemon games. But lately I choose the Water starters. That doesn't mean I don't like the Fire ones though! But "teh pig" just doesn't do it for me.

    Usually get to those after I get approved :) You want all these answered already? Dang that's a lot for starting out haha

    Topic Discussions:
     ☼According to you, which is the strongest Fire type Pokemon?
    The strongest Fire type Pokemon is actually Reshiram in my opinion. Ho-Oh with its Sacred Fire is just insane, but the 4x Weakness to Rock is what hurts it. So Reshiram wins. But other than the great Legends, I'd have to go with Arcanine, very bulky AND is dangerous in offensive.

    ☼Which Fire type starter do you like the most?
    Charizard vs Blaziken. Charizard because he was just the coolest after the first two generation. Blaziken is just badass when introducing the Hoenn region. Of course, Charizard, just like Ho-Oh has that 4x Weakness. I prefer the looks, the tactics and the ability of Blaziken over Infernape anyday, and I absolutely do not like Emboar.

    Plus, Blaziken's Speed Boost makes it an Uber Pokemon, just dangerous!

    ☼Which Fire type legendary do you like the most?
    Reshiram. Love her look. She'd be part of my storyline Pokemon I've been writing down about. Excellent Pokemon.

    ☼Which is your favourite Fire type move?
    I'd have to go with Blue Flare. Very beautiful.

    ?Who is your favourite Fire type Gym Leader?
    Blaine! How could you not like him? In the anime, it was very fun watching Charizard vs Magmar battle after Charizard took that nap LOL

    ☼According to you, which Fire type has the best shiny sprite?
    Ninetales!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She's a beauty!
    [PokeCommunity.com] ☼ The Fortress of Flames ☼ (Fire type fanclub)


    ☼Do you think Fire types can be successfully used defensively? If yes, how?
    No not really. They will have to go all out to win. Moves such as, Rock Slide & Earthquake, can easily hurt/injure the Fire Pokemon. That's the only bad part of owning a Fire Pokemon.
     
    Name- Curious.
    Starter- Valorie the Volcarona.
    Reason for joining- Fire types are not only vicious and powerful, they can be extremely desteructive yet do so in an elegant and beautiful manner. They do have their weaknesses, but they are still powerhouses nonetheless.
    Referred by- Nobody.

    According to you, which is the strongest Firte type pokemon?
    Like many people believe, there is no one sole pokemon that the strongest. This applies t legendaries also and fire types as a type. I don't find any to be as powerful as others, disregarding their gaming stats and abilities, I find all of them still do the job in the end, but just execute such a task qicker than others.

    ☼According to you, which is the strongest Fire type Pokemon?


    ☼Which Fire type starter do you like the most?
    Definitely Volcarona or Blaziken both a beautiful pokemon, so destructive yet elegant.


    ☼Which Fire type legendary do you like the most?
    Ho-oh, reason being it was the mascot of my first even Pokemon game: Pokemon Gold on GBC.


    ☼Which is your favourite Fire type move?
    The typical Flamethrower, cliche'd yes; but very effective.
    Who is your favourite Fire type Gym Leader?
    Blaine stood out for me, because he is more of a logical person rather than a practical person, unlike Flannery and Chilli. The only thing thats irks me about him is his appearance, that bold head. ;__;
     
    Username: d4rka8isz
    Starter: Chandelure
    Reason for Joining: The first starter I choose in every generation is fire type... It's an amazing type!


    ☼According to you, which is the strongest Fire type Pokemon?
    The fully-evolved starters because they're always the strongest for me.

    ☼Which Fire type starter do you like the most?
    Definitely Torchic.

    ☼Which Fire type legendary do you like the most?
    Moltres because the rainbow turkey and redundant fire dragon don't appeal to me as much.

    ☼Which is your favourite Fire type move?
    Blaze Kick for sure. It's just because Blaziken learns it.

    ☼Who is your favourite Fire type Gym Leader?
    I would say Flint, but he's an E4 so Flannery is second.

    ☼According to you, which Fire type has the best shiny sprite?

    ☼Do you think Fire types can be successfully used defensively? If yes, how?
    They could if you're smart (I'm not). If you couldn't, what would Magcargo and Torkoal be for? Cannon fodder?

    Welcome to the club, Jayster. Your answer is right, it's Emboar.
     
    Like a Boss!

    Thought i may put my opinion across on the topic discussions:

    ☼According to you, which is the strongest Fire type Pokemon?
    To me it would be Charizard or Blaziken, Charizard has good speed and great Special attack and Blaziken has good speed and regular attack. Both are Powerhouses of their respective generations and when trained properly can be absolutely killer.

    ☼Which Fire type starter do you like the most?
    The Charmander line because Charmander was the first Pokemon i ever chose and Charizard is an epic beast

    ☼Which Fire type legendary do you like the most?
    All the fire legends didn't really appear to me, but my favourite would have to be Entei or Moltres because the first generation roamers were original how one gen was Birds and the next was land roamers

    ☼Which is your favourite Fire type move?
    I'd have to say Eruption is my favourite, In Pokemon Ruby it used to my form of training for the league and what not on Groudon. Groudon would have made a much better fire type. Just saying :P

    ☼Who is your favourite Fire type Gym Leader?
    I'd have to say Blaine because he has a backstory and seems more experienced. Although as stated before, his look is gross. -.-

    ☼According to you, which Fire type has the best shiny sprite?
    This would be the best shiny sprite *pokemonelite2000 image removed*

    ☼Do you think Fire types can be successfully used defensively? If yes, how?
    I wouldn't really know because i'm not the defensive trainer, the quicker the opponent faints, the better.
     
    Name- Avishka
    Starter- Arcanine
    Reason for joining- It is my favorite type and i always choose fire starters and fire type pokemon have powerful moves

    ☼According to you, which is the strongest Fire type Pokemon?
    The fully-evolved starters because they're always the strongest for me.
    ☼Which Fire type starter do you like the most?
    chimchar and charmander
    ☼Which Fire type legendary do you like the most?
    Reshiram and Moltres
     
    @Sayan

    I answered the question first!!! Oh well...
     
    @d4rka8isz- I'm really sorry for what had happened. You really are the 1st to answer the quiz. Your and Jayster's points have been adjusted accordingly.
     
    Good list :)

    Although it wouldn't hurt to find the right Rotom sprite

    [PokeCommunity.com] ☼ The Fortress of Flames ☼ (Fire type fanclub)


    Merry Christmas ;)
     
    @Avishka- Thanks for joining the group. I hope you have a lot of fun here :)!

    @Oops, that's what I get for using the National dex ID replacement technique to find sprites (you know what I mean)... Wait I'll fix it.

    Other than that, everything looks great now :)

    I especially love the flaming background you put up, and the introduction picture is just brilliant. Great work!

    Hint, Hint; you should answer your own questions too ;P
     
    Yeah I'm gonna do that, but actually, but right now I'm really fatigued. Well, I guess I can spare 1 answer...

    Favourite Fire Starter- Blaziken. Speed Boost Blaziken's really strong and really fast at the same time (although now that it's uber, it's kinda overshadowed). In Gen3, it was the only Fire starter with some good, strong STAB moves running off its secondary type (Charizard didn't have any strong Flying moves). It was also the 1st Fire Pokemon not weak to Rock.

    Lastly, (I must say this) it's a blazin kicking chicken! 'nuff said!
