Pokemon that represents the SUN weak to fire. Wow.
You circled the wrong thing.
We've got like a zillion psychic legendaries.
>>26567005
Also, the Pokemon that represents the moon is quad weak to dark.
>>26566971
It's a sentient space shuttle
>>26567018
>Sun Legendary
>Weak to Fire
He circled the right thing desu
>>26567035
Damn you're right I didn't even think of that what the fuck.
>>26567035
As well as ghost
>>26567045
>the sun is made of fire
You's a stupid-ass nigga.
Because pyroar is the true solgaleo
>>26567079
good thing it has multiscale!
>>26567005
>>26567035
What if that was intentional? Like they have some kind of alternate form or some other business?
>>26567005
>implying they didn't change the type effectiveness
>>26567123
I guess that could be, but as it stands atm it's stupid.
It's okay guys, Solrock and Lunastone's mega evo will make up for these two
Please tell me there is more to its ability, like removing its Fire weakness...
>>26566971
Well, better type competitively. Fire is weak to fucking everything, water and rock are used by everyone.
Still, they did choose some strange types for these legendaries.
Also, why the fuck do they need to be psychic? Ghost and Steel would have been better.
What if it's a man-made thing
Where were you when the moon bros were right all along? Sun idiots on suicide watch! BTFO
>>26567410
Anon, Water doesn't exist in Ubers.
>>26567088
the sun is made of hot
fire is also made of hot
the sun is made of fire
>>26566971
What if it has a second where it sheds its armor?
>>26567583
*second form
>>26567476
No, it's steel like sentient Pokemon steel, not robotic. The only manmade Pokemon so far seems to be Porygon and Magearna.
>>26567576
>american education system
>>26567545
>MOON POKEMON
>4X WEAK TO DARK
Honestly, what the fuck
>>26567576
You need oxygen for fire. Do you think the sun has fucking oxygen?
>>26566971
Light in Pokemon always seemed to be more related to steel than to fire.
See Flash Cannon for example. I think there are more light-based attacks that are Fairy, Psychic or Steel type than light-based Fire attacks.
>>26567776
The sun produces a lot of oxygen though.
Spaceships are made of metals.
>The sun is a star.
>Stars are as hard as Steel
>2 Fire Lion Pokemon already existing, one already a legend.
>>26567716
Which is funny, because its ability decreases that weakness. Oh, what typing was your sun legendary? Psychic/steel? Get recked by moongiest beam. Good day to be a moon bro. "I am vengence, I am the night, I am Lunna!"
>>26567776
The sun doesn't need oxygen. Not everything needs oxygen. Just look at insects, they don't need to breathe.
lol
I mean...what if full metal body makes fire attacks do normal damage or buff fire and steel attack?
Idk just trying to rationalize this.
Why are you fucks sperging over Solgaleo's typing and no Lunala?
Solgaleo's typing while unusal is at least pretty solid (although poor on the offensive side), Lunala is so shitty I predict it will drop to OU on day 1.
>>26567716
4x weak to ghost AND dark
How do you fuck up a legendary this bad holy shit
Solgaleo should have been fire/electric and Lunaala should have been dark/fairy. Bullshit.
>>26567801
But steel is solid how the fuck it is light?
>>26568141
>Flash Cannon
>Mirror Shot
>something to do with Chinese beliefs
>metal is reflective
>>26568075
Lol, I predict that Lunna will rock OU on day one. Not so good typing wise, but a multiscale like ability, with an attack that has a moldbreaker like effect. Yeah, we know it hurts sun idiot, let it out.
>>26568141
It reflects light, I assume.
Though I always thought it was a japanese cultural thing, something about associating certain things with each other. Kinda like why Lucario is steel because aura is steel or something.
>Implying
You were shitposting it was going to be Fire
The fact that it wasn't is a great surprise
Literally Florges 2.0
Morons will think it's a fire type and keep using water and rock attacks
Dont know about you but I like the type throw offs
Give us more
>>26568039
Full Metal Body is confirmed to be a Clear Body clone.
>>26566971
>mfw Liger Zero became a pokemon
>mfw its the best thing to happen to the franchise
>>26568231
Don't forget when people tried to use Fighting type attacks on Aegislash
>>26568075
Lunala will fuck OU's shit up. If M-Metagross can't get to uber, Solgaleo might not either.
>>26566971
fuck off it's third type if obviously fire
>>26567088
Can the Sun get Burned?
Is the Sun weak against Fire?
>Pyroar cucked Solgaleo out of its Fire typing
It was never states that they embodied the sun and moon
They are the box legends for sun and moon
They were probably made to be weak to fire and dark on purpose
We need more plot first
>devours the sun >weak to fire
>>26568449
>Since ancient times, Solgaleo has been honored as an emissary of the sun. It is referred to with reverence as “the beast that devours the sun.
>>26568532
>devours sun
>weak to fire
>>26568176
Jesus christ that projecting
Alright Moonfag, name one (1) viable Pokemon with two x4 weaknesses currently in OU, or even better, Ubers. I'll be waiting.
>>26568075
Because steel defensive nerf and psychic going down the shitter every gen. Also
>sun pokemon
>not fire type
>>26568557
>>26568532
maybe it's a reference to his synchro form or something
>implying synchro won't be a thing
>>26567005
>Dragon types weak to dragon
>Ghost types weak to ghost
These new gens amirite
>>26568570
Volcarona?
>>26568570
not him but we no longer have x4 weakness because ever since gen 5 supereffective moves only hit for 1.5 now
>>26568607
Steel/Psychic took a hit with the nerf but it's still relatively viable and has a solid set of resistances. Mega Metagross is doing good, so is Jirachi.
Meanwhile Psychic/Ghost is Ice/Rock tier of bad. Just look where Hoopa-C is right now to see how it actually plays out.
>>26568658
my bugifu desu fampai
>>26568658
Two x4 weaknesses. Think shit like Aggron and Aurorus.
>>26568668
here is your (You)
>>26566971
>M-Metagross has higher stats than box legends
>ability gives it life orb without the damage
>gets priority, signature attack, coverage options, just enough SpA to go mixed with Grass Knot, boosting move in Agility that most box legends don't get
>still an OU shitter
I dont even give a shit that its not fire type
BUT WHY THE HELL IS IT STEEL TYPE
>>26568716
I misread, sorry. I'm half-awake at this point and will probably go sleep here in a bit.
>>26568716
But it's true
x4 weakness stopped being a thing after gen 4
>>26568570
Weavile
>>26568753
It has only one x4 weakness (Fighting).
>>26568753
>weavile
>viable
kek
>>26568802
I'm gonna assume you're not clinically retarded and are confusing the critical hit nerf with SE damage.
Because crits now do 1.5 times damage, as opposed to 2X.
>>26568141
Metallic unions in atoms form very reflective, metallic, material, because of the constant release and travel of delocalized electrons throughout the material; these make metals be very sensible to electricity, conducting it with ease, and also very reflective. Could it be that Steel special attacks are based on this, in one way or another, the concentration of electronic/photonic metallic energy?
>>26568920
mfw it's fucking A rank in OU viability
>>26569099
noone argued that anon
>>26569099
What the fuck are you even talking about?
https://youtu.be/UBhTRIQJOTk
>inb4 pokeaim
They actually calculated how strong sunsteel strike was to Salamence and confirmed that this thing was gonna have around ~170 attack and really good HP.
>>26569281
That is absurd, do people not use fighting type moves/mons in a fighting type meta?
WE HAVE NOW ANOTHER METAGROSS. I can't believe it.
>>26567925
Yes they do you baka. They just breathe differently
>>26566971
THE SUN IS MADE UP OF ALL SORTS OF METALS.
YOU ALL ARE IMBECILES BWAHAHA
>>26569340
Not anymore with Fairies and Bravest Bird running wild
>the SUN lion doesn't come with Drought
>the EARTH behemoth dinosaur does and even fucking evaporates water in its primal form
ayy
>>26569340
>fighting type meta
Nigga this isn't Gen 5
>>26569332
their calculation is absolutely halfassed though.

- GameFreak
>>26568570
It is good you bring this up again, because see multiscale. Means first attack won't do 4x anything at all. And I can name plunty of OU pokemon who do the same. Again, sun BTFO.
>>26566971
where were you when pokemon became DA tier
>>26567005
>pretty much all the Sinnoh legends are weak to themselves
>the completely tilted dichotomy of Groupon and Kyogre
>Zapdos was weak to electric in gen1
This isn't exactly a new concept.
>>26566971
Well it's a Zoid, obviously it's gonna have steel type.
>>26570046
In 2007, when I was playing Diamond.
>most of those fucking evolutions of older Pokemon
holy fuck make it stop
>>26567925
are pokemon fans this level of stupidity? Jesus.
>>26567005
>>26567035
>running out of ideas
and the funniest part is that you nintoddlers will keep buying these soulless garbage games
>>26570195
the pain is eternal and continuous
>>26570248
He's half right at least. The sun doesn't need oxegyn because it's not burning in the traditional sense, it's just really really hot.
>just look at insects
He is pretty fucking stupid though.
>>26566971
Not Fire/Grass
Fuck you Game Freak abd your "we must make everything a fairy now" mentality.
>>26570405
No pokemon revealed so far are fairy type, and why the fuck would a sun legend be grass?
>>26570462
STAB Solarbeam
But then again they didn't packed it with Drought so that becomes fucking shit too.
>>26570307
>nintoddlers
>soulless garbage
Holy shit at least fucking TRY with your bait faggot
Why are pokemon fans such idiots? Do they really thing the Sun is made of fire? Do they really, really think Fire and Heat are the same thing? Don't they know the basics of thermodynamics? They teach that in high school.
>>26570498
That is the vaguest, most grasping at straws reason I have seen in this entire thread.
>212 HP
damn...that's a lot
>>26567153
Psychic resisting fire wouldn't make sense at all.
>>26570551
>>26570551
Most like Heat Wave and Lava Plume are fire type moves. Fire is basically just heat type.
It's Heliolisk all over again.
>>26570551
Fire is easily the best representation of the sun out of the available types.
But no they always have to randomly slap steel on every legendary.
>>26566971
Why wasn't it just called Soleo?
>>26570603
Probably some reference to its alchemy origins, or to a galleon.
>>26566971
this is fine as long as it has a new ability related to gobbling fire attacks
>>26570638
>watch trailer
>full metal body
>probably literally clear body but renamed
welp im a fucking idiot, fuck this then
>2 never before seen skills!
>It's literally Clear Body and Multiscale
Did they forgot those existed? Bad typings and shit abilities and being ubers...
>>26570094
>pretty much all the Sinnoh legends are weak to themselves
Steel resists Dragon anon.
>>26570524
not baiting I stopped playing these shit games after gen 5
Remember when the game with WHITE had a BLACK color legendary?
Good times
>>26568141
Compton effect
>>26567630
And Mewtwo, Genesect, Ditto, and Klink
>>26570946
The reverse color representations were intentional for plot reasons. Thats why in the sequels you receive the dragon that N owned alongside being the dragon Kyurem fuses with.
>>26570307
>shit talks pokemon
>in pokemon board
Looks like summer
>>26570671
Wow look at that. Not all the Sinnoh legends are weak to themselves. It's crazy how that happened, it's like I already said that. It's like I just said that pretty much all of them were weak to themselves. Its almost like I didn't say all of them were weak to themselves. It's wild how words work, right? It's crazy how letters strung together have certain meanings that you can understand if you read them. Its weird how that works.
The sun actually has more to do with metals than fire
Psychic for both is probably some orbiting bullshit
>>26571065
>Psychic for both is probably some orbiting bullshit
Psychic has always been the 'cosmic' type. Starmie, Solrock/Lunatone, Jirachi, Deoxys ect., think Newtypes from Mobile Suit Gundam.
>>26571013
>Klink
>Man-made
I don't see anything wrong though
It's normal that a devourer isn't necessarily the same element or better yet weak
Darkness wants to swallow light, but that's because they are weak to light
Segeleo wants to devour the sun to gain it's power, doesn't mean he's the same type, that's just what he does
Lunala's typing makes sense.
>Shadow Claw
>Shadow Ball
>Shadow Sneak
>Night Shade
Darkness/shadows in Pokemon have always been associated more with the Ghost-type than the Dark-type, which is more about cheap fighting tactics.
>>26571047
nah I came from /v/ after I heard the game was out
>>26571314
Cancer.
>>26570462
Magearna
>>26571472
Ah right, so one. That's still not "everything must be fairy" mentality at all.
>>26571539
I wasnt the guy that said that. I just saw your post and replied with Magearna.
Also want to add that that makes it two Steel legends, as well as Psychic
>>26566971
>Literally metagross

Is 2/8 legends most? Or 2/12 if you count the events.

Ice and Steel for example are weak to fire because fire would melt it. The sun is made out of plasma what can literally do the same thing.

What if Solgaleo and Lunala have burst/primal forms where they turn Fire/Psychic and Ghost/Fairy
>>26571314
/v/ is even worse than Reddit. I wouldn't wish that shitty board on my worst enemy.
>>26573966
The main thing that the sun and fire have in common is hydrogen and helium
The sun is a nuclear fusion of the two that doesn't require oxygen, while fire is a chemical reaction between the two that needs oxygen.
So the sun isn't literally a ball of fire, but is it really different enough that anyone should give a shit?
On one side the debate you have legitimately uneducated people, and on the other side you have overly literal autists
