Bugs are supposed to be weak, the types are unbalanced on purpose. Look at the dragon type, little to no weakness other than ice. Super strong attacks and great abilities. Bugs suck balls. Not that I hate them, but only 2 out of like 70 bugs are in OU, most are NU.

Bugs really shouldn't suck. Not just because bugs across the world cause millions of death each year (Well mosquito's account for most of those but whatever) but being super effective on Grass, Psychic and Dark you would think would have it's benefits. Not that Psychic (except Ubers) and Grass are that good or frequent to begin with but...an Uber Bug would destroy!!
 
I need strong bugs ( #><) ... and beside scizor and heracross being strong, there's yanmega :its strong i think:
 
I think there are only 3 bugs OU Scizor,Heracross, and Ninjask. I mean look at all the crappy bugs we have. (Shedinja,Parasect, etc) More than 50% of the bugs are 4x's weak to SR so they need better typing's for them.
 
^Forretress is OU as well.
 
I hope for more Dragons 2 like Ice/Dragon lol Bug/Dragon would help Bugs out
 
I`ve completely forgot about Sharpedo and it`s pre-evolution ^^`

Btw, did someone noticed that all of the 1st gen grass pokemon are not useful (except Venusaur)?

Yeah, I also had Dragon/Ice in mind, but forgot it xD
Lol, an levitating Electric pokemon without a 2nd type would have no weakness.

Anyways, I would like to see some more Ghost and Dragon types.
I also hope for new Rock types, which have no 4x weakness.

Those types would be weird :
Dragon/Fighting
Dragon/Grass
Fire/Dragon
Electric/Dragon

Those would be strong/cool :
Psychic/Dark - 4x Bug weakness only, a high sp.def would be great
Ice/Dragon - 2x Dragon, 2x Steel, 2x Rock, 2x Fighting weakness, a high defense would be great
Poison/Steel - 4x Ground weakness, 2x Fire weakness
Grass/Fire (sounds weird) - 2x Rock, 2x Fly and 2x Toxic weakness, a high def would be great

Here are other type suggestion :
Water/Ghost (too many weaknesses)
Psychic/Ghost (very weak, 4x Dark and 4x Ghost weakness >.<)

im confused... sorry, but what's the meaning of OU and SR? :embarrass:
 
OU means Overused. There are some pokemon defined as overused because of their stats and because many people use them. Here you`ll find a list of all overused pokemon : *smogon.com link removed*

And SR means Stealth Rock.
 
I really cant wait for Pokemon Sunday today. Hopefully we'll see a new Pokemon, and not just more about Zorua and Zoroark. Though I can see them just officially releasing them, saying some powers of them, and that's it. Maybe a new trailer for the new movie, but that's asking for a lot.
 
@Kotone: Oh yeah, that is AWESOME. I really love Zorua's colours, they're so dark and evil. But I'm surprised they've already made plushies for them!

Yes, but psychic/dark are both fast and powerful, so their weakness to bug is barely a weakness at all.
 
Btw, which pokemon do you except to see?

I think that the 5th gen will bring Chatots evolution, because the same thing happened with Murkrow and Roselia. Oh yeah, and a evolution of Delibird would be nice too :)

yanmegas ok at best. its a BL
 
Yo creo que la quinta generacion será bastante imnovadora, tal como dijeron los funcionarios de Nintendo. Los dos Pokemon que ellos han mostrado me sorprendieron mucho, y creo que si todos los que harán son igual de buenos, será un excelente catalogo de Pokemon

I think the fifth generation will be quite imnovadora as Nintendo officials said. The two Pokemon that they have shown me very surprised, and I think if all those who are just as good will, will be an excellent catalog of Pokemon.
 
If they add evolutions the ones I think need it most are:
pinsir
luvdisc
mawile
pachirisu
dunsparce
keckleon
