[VOTE] Gyarados vs Crystal Onix

[~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~]

Gyarados for me since I'm more familiar with it as well as it can KO Onix very easily by using Dragon Dance followed by Waterfall


:t354:TG

I didint say "RED" Gyarados. I just meant a normal gyarados. But if a Red Gyarados would fight agains a Crystal Onix, the red gyarados would win. Since red gyarados use's fire moves aswell as water. Crystal onix is made out of Rock and Ice I believe. Fire + Ice is K.O. For sure. But Id say a Crystal Onix is stronger agains a normal gyarados because the Crystal onix use's the same water moves as Gyarados and it has a bigger DEF. Hard body, hard to penetrate.

The only difference between a (shiny) red Gyarados and a normal Gyarados is the appearance. Normal Gyarados can use fire moves too. Even so in the anime (Misty's Gyarados). If a red Gyarados wins, then a normal Gyarados wins too.

 

[Professor W.]

Crystal Onix, because he's hard, giving him resistance.

Damn, people, get yo knowledge before you vote.

Crystal Onix was shown in the anime to be resistant to normal type moves, though weak to fire (basically a steel type).

So unless Gyarados knows Flamethrower/Fireblast (which it rarely does) then Onix has the advantage.

Hyper beam isn't much of a worry for a rock type like Onix. Plus, if the Crystal Onix is something like a Steel type, like I suggested earlier, then both Hyper Beam and Dragon-type moves would be not very effective.

Last time I checked Gyarados was able to learn EARTHQUAKE, that's supereffective be it steel-type, rock-type, or whatever. (unless that Onix suddenly turned into a flying-type poke by equipping a Crystalous Orb or something along the lines of that) Also, water is still neutral to steel, as are it to ice, so it would still do normal damage by using Waterfall.
Heck, if you suggest that it's Steel/Ground just like its evo, Steelix, I don't see the problem at all.

Still Gyarados >>>>>>> any Onix

 

[Destinyfate]

Well To me there almost a tie because Gyrados is a water type and Crystal Onix is a Ground Type But Even though ground onix has more resistance so no tie

 

[Tudj]

I think that Gyarados, because of its strong moveset, but I think it is so close that the thing that would decide it is the moves.

 

[derozio]

Cruystal onyx-> Anime only character. We don't know whether its a steel, rock, ice type.
Gyrados-> Its a pretty powerful pokemon + we know its moves.

NOTE: I will be calling crystal onyx as CO from now on. It really bothers me >_<!

So if a gyrados battles an ice type CO, then it can use flamethrower to damage it. If it battles a rock type CO then it will defeat it with its water techniques. If its a steel type CO then it can defeat it either by flamethrower or using EQ.

On the other hand, CO doesn't seem to have anything up its sleeve. We don't know anything about its moveset.(I guess its the same as any Onyx.) W/E it really can't stand a chance against a gyrados.

So Gyrados PWNS Crystal onyx! XD :P

 

[Eliminator Jr.]

Since red gyarados use's fire moves aswell as water.

As far as I know the Red Gyarados has the same moveset as the regular Gyarados. As for the actual argument, I guess it'd depend on what type of crystal the Onix actually was. Like if it was diamond or something then of course it would win, but if it was made out of something brittle and it could shatter easily I'd say the Gyarados would win. I haven't seen the episode because I don't watch the anime series, but yeah there are too many unknown factors in regards to the Crystal Onix to make a proper decision.

 

[NiKaNoRoU]

I can't compare a normal with an AnimE Pokemon just because the AnimE battle system is different (ever wondered how electric moves can hit ground type Pokemon?)
So I'll have to get two aspects:
AnimE aspect: Crystal ONIX
Because: It's cool, rare, probably better than your average GYARADOS and it could evovle to a Crystal STEELIX o.O

Game Aspect: GYARADOS
Because: it's opponment is a non-existing Pokemon.

That means I shouldn't vote either of them.

But because theories and blabbering is bad, I vote for Crystal ONIX, just because I chose so.

 

[MisoCrazyCup]

To Pokemon League Champion.

Did he say red Gyrados? ;o

 

[Universal]

I'll go for gyrrados..Has some good movies..And with all that attack and speed x.x

 

[Bonzai-Cat]

wouldn't crystal Onix win against Gyrados because he is resistant to water attacks plus has rock moves that Gyrados would be weak against?

 

[Robert Conley]

Crystal Onix is either Steel or Ice(it was week to Fire attacks), most likely Ice because it appeared during the Orange Islands storyline before Steel was added as a type. Hope this helps your guy's debate.

 

[Poison Pokemon Rule]

Crystal Onix better looking and if you evolve it then it would beat Gyarados even quicker.

 

[Tyros]

Gyarados used Earthquake!
It's super effective!

If Crystal Onix was a steel type, anyway.

If not...

Gyarados used Earthquake!
Gyarados' massive Attack Stat f--k'd up the crazy-strange Onix anyway!

GG!
