Thanks so much for joining the club, Unapologetic Sunflower and Dedenne1! Adding you both to the OP now. I have to agree with both of you, both Aura Sphere AND Power Up Punch are the best moves Lucario knows physically and special attack wise.

Also, since more than enough people have responded to the POTW, I'll be updating a post soon and the OP with a new POTW as well as a new topic to discuss! Stay tuned! :)

It's time for a new Pokemon Of The Week!

~Fighting type POTW~

hFSjg1A.png

Hawlucha

Although its body is small, its proficient fighting skills enable it to keep up with big bruisers like Machamp and Hariyama. With its wings, it controls its position in the air. It likes to attack from above, a maneuver that is difficult to defend against. So here it is, the Fight for the right to Fight! A Pokemon/Dojo Club POTW Entry #4, Hawlucha

1. Have you ever used it competitively or in game?

2. What do you think of the overall design of Hawlucha?

3. What do you think of Hawlucha's Fighting/Flying type combination and its signature move, Flying Press?

4. Were you surprised when Ash caught his own Hawlucha in the XY anime?

5. What do you think of its shiny form?​


Also, the new topic is..... Who is your favorite FIGHTING type gym leader in the Pokemon games, and why?

I look forward to everyone's replies! :)

I have used a Hawlucha during my Pokémon Y run! I love the design of Hawlucha, it's unique and well designed! Despite it has Electric, Psychic, Flying, Ice and Fairy-type moves as its weaknesses. Nevertheless, the type is a new and unique combination, just like its design! I was expecting this typing to be first honored by Staraptor. As for Flying Press, it has a decent BP for a novelty move. I was expecting dual type moves to be well distributed in this generation.

While not a watcher or fan of the anime, I read the updates and spoilers because of my curiosity! To be honest I was really surprised, since Ash has an another Flying-type already! And they even made it three with the introduction of Noibat.

I love its shiny form a lot! I wish I had one! {XD}

(not replying the new topic for now, so that I can help bump the club next time when I reply the topic.)

1. Have you ever used it competitively or in game?
In game before as i obtained a shiny form and wanted to try it out :D

2. What do you think of the overall design of Hawlucha?
Its pretty good they actually put some creativitity into it especially making it the first fighting and flying

3. What do you think of Hawlucha's Fighting/Flying type combination and its signature move, Flying Press?
I think its cool and fitting for a pokemon of his status

4. Were you surprised when Ash caught his own Hawlucha in the XY anime?
Nope i expected him to have a fighting type as he usually does and Hawlucha was the obv choice

5. What do you think of its shiny form?
As someone who obtained and used it i love it the colors are pretty cool as well especially how its kinda the negative of the original colors of hawlucha :)

1. Only competitively, as I don't own XY or ORAS.

2. Pretty decent, after all it's the Wrestling Pokemon.

3. It's Flying/Fighting-type seems weird, but it means Hawlucha's not weak to rocks and can check Ice-types fairly effectively. Flying Press is a decent move to use in-game but useless competitively.

4. Hmmmm... not really. Perhaps a bit because it was Ash's second flying-type mon, but it seems like the writers can't take advantage of Talonflame being both Fire- and Flying-type, which would save one slot.

5. It's meh.

So far my favorite Fighting-type Gym Leader would be Maylene. Since she broke the Fighting-type's stereotypes in so many ways: The first important female character to directly be associated with the type not to mention she has pink hair, which is special for a Fighting-type specialist. Her personality seems to be different than most of the Fighting-type users! :)

Brawly's my favorite among male Fighting-type Gym Leaders!

Thanks so much guys for all responding to the POTW! I plan on having a new one up soon. Also, I have to agree. Maylene was and is my favorite fighting-type major user to this day. Especially since I started Pokemon with Diamond. :)

Updating everyone's points now! :)

Senpai!

Username: Spoony6205 (though it will be changing to Spoonacross soon!)
Your FIGHTING type nickname: FIGHTING type Student
Your Fighting Type Club Campaign Partner (You can choose only one): Heracross
Reason for joining the Dojo (Club): Ever since the original announcement of Pokken Tournament when I first thought it would just feature Fighting-types I've started to look into Fighting-types more and appreciating them more. To be honest the designs of several Fighting-types has traditionally put me off on the whole but now there are some I'm rather fond of. Hopefully being part of this club will strengthen that and also teach me how best to utilise them in battle!
Answer to any one of the current topics: What made you love FIGHTING type Pokemon? As above, but also the fact that Heracross is part Fighting-type and it's the only Bug-type to have that combination! The Mega Lucario story in the anime also turned me into a Lucario fan, I loved how he struggled to come to terms with and control his power!

I love Marshal's design as well! Additionally, he's the one who really posed as a challenge for me. He makes me wary everytime I'm against him! :'( While there's no official leader the Elite Four in the Unova region, I would say Marshal would fit in the role of Unova Elite Four leader.

Senpai!

Hello Skyxyd, welcome to our Fighting Dojo!
Mega Lopunny is awesome! She can hit Sableye and Spiritomb directly with ease.~

~Fighting Type POTW~


EnUBnDI.png

Toxicroak


It has a poison sac at its throat. When it croaks, the stored poison is churned for greater potency. Its knuckle claws secrete a toxin so vile that even a scratch could prove to be fatal. So here it is, the Fight for the right to Fight! A Pokemon Dojo/Club POTW Entry #5, Toxicroak


1. Have you ever used it competitively or in-game?


2. What do you think of the overall design of Toxicroak?


3. What is the best move it has?


4. What did you think when Brock caught his own Croagunk (pre-evolution of Toxicroak) in the Diamond and Pearl anime? Was it funny seeing Croagunk Poison Jab Brock and dragging him away repeatedly throughout the anime each time Brock tries to ask out a girl?


5. What do you think of its shiny form?

I look forward to everyone's replies! :)
