>>26915631
It looks like a rail gun in literally 0 ways. You know what it does have? Gigantic fucking mandibles dominating half of its bodymass.
>>26915655
It's based on both, but the reveal trailer made sure to focus on it using Zap Cannon, not a biting move.

It totally looks JUST like it, you guys! How can you not see it? Definitely based off of a railgun, I can't stop thinking about anime for two consecutive seconds but I'm sure that has nothing to do with this. What are pincers? I don't get it, can we talk about anime again?
>>26915771
Pokémon is literally Japanese, anime is Japanese, I'm sorry this is so hard for you to understand.

Holy shit you are obsessively autistic. You can't stop thinking about anime for one minute, can you? You can't even look at a fucking bug without thinking about anime. I bet you thought Metagross would be a special attacker because anime has giant lazer robots. Not everything has to be stuck to your narrow anime trends you fucking retard.

>>26915699
>>26915771
>this faggot posting the only damn railgun that doesnt use the two prong design
>>26915863
It can't possibly be both.
Pokémon has NEVER tried to tie multiple inspirations together to make a Pokémon.
>>26915873
It's not one person, and its also not "the only railgun". All railgun gave this design, it's a real railgun.
>>26915699
Anon, if you could look inside that barrel, you'd see two parallel rails (the namesake of the device) across which a bar to be shot is placed. Current is run through this circuit, and the high changing amperage leads to a strong magnetic force that ejects the bar from the gun.
Why would a Pokémon that has obvious /m/ inspiration ever have a railgun? This idea is beyond me.
Oh, and I browse 4chan and hate anime by the way.
>>26915511
>no guard
>this thing looks like it learns zap cannon
Pinsir is totally a railgun too, right guys? Heracross is clearly passed off of a stun baton so he'll probably be special too. Also don't forget Metagross is TOTALLY based off of fundamental because I can't imagine anything that's not anime related, so he'll probably have lasers and be special too.
>>26915847

>>26915911
It uses Zap Cannon in the reveal trailer.
Pretty cool, would love No Guard.
>>26915916

I'm sorry you're such a fucking retard, anon-kun.

Gengar line doesn't almost exclusively learn physical moves for the majority of its life, right guys?

>>26915813
In the ANIME, you do realize metagross CAN shoot lasers, right?
I really hope you're being ironic over being this salty over anime.
>>26915941
It literally uses Zap Cannon in the reveal trailer.
>>26915936
>still posts the real life circular cannon design
Face it weeb
>>26915937
Just ignore the rest then, that's fine. Keep pretending like you made a point.
>>26915949
Sure it can, but it's also not a special attacker and also not based off of gundam. Thanks for missing the point entirely.
>>26915960
So you've just given up on arguing, good.
Fuck off with your shitty Strong Jaw meme.

Hey look, Game Freak cares about a Konami IP more than that shitty company themselves do.

>>26915953
I know. Are you so retarded that you really don't get even this simple of a point? Gengar is all about special attack, but through almost all of its leveling it learns mostly physical moves. It's still not a physical attacker. This guy learns zap canon but so what, that doesn't indicate anything. It can still be physical.
>>26915960
>Resorting to pointless greentext

>Stag Beetle
For what purpose?
>>26915972
Yes, Ledian is also /m/.
Non-/m/fags don't belong in bug discussion.
>>26915962
Your point was that Metagross couldn't do that shit at all.
It's based on gundam due to fusing with it's smaller parts to become stronger, a common as hell trait in gundam n general, the pokedex sets the final nail in the coffin.
Even Power Rangers did the combine shit.
Stop being so overly salty and fuck off with your damage control, you sperg.
>>26915982
I literally just spelled out the point for you in that post, how are you this fucking stupid? No wonder you think it's a railgun.
>>26915983
>>26915903
i dont see why a /m/ inspired design wouldnt have a railgun, plenty of mecha use them.

>>26915538
>Implying it won't be special attacked focused
It's a railgun beetle. Gotta make sure it can use Zap Cannon effectively
>>26916032
I'm not even a /co/ person, but I'm able to seperate anime from reality, and have rational thought without going back to anime constantly.
>>26916041
>reality
Pokémon isn't reality.
Pokémon has plenty of anime influences.
Pokémon is Japanese.
Anime is Japanese.
I'm sorry you're incapable of putting two and two together, but your retardation had gotten out of hand.
>>26916041
>seperate anime from reality
but pokemon is fiction which is largely an anime, using a fictional inspired two prong railgun, basically the rail without the protective casing, makes sense.
>>26916023
>nothing else to put on the table aside from saying you like anime as if it were an insult
Sorry for rekting you.
its a railgun niggas
its Japanese law that beetles are required to be /m/ as fuck
>>26916057
This argument is i herently flawed. Pokemon fake, but based off of things in reality. Pikachu is the electric mouse and is based off of a mouse, not off of Mickey.
>>26916041
You're the one being unable to separate a fictional railgun design present in most sci-fi fiction and being adopted into yet another fictional work from reality, while also completely ignoring the fact that this is still how a railgun looks like and works internally.
>>26916090
No, stop projecting your insecurities on me. I'm not saying anime is bad, I'm saying constantly thinking about anime and being unable to conceive ideas that don't originate in anime and willfully ignoring reality in favor of anime is bad.

It's primarily influenced by a very common design in fictional railguns but I can see why someone might think it's based off of electrician's pliers.
>>26916146
It can be based off of both, no idea why so many retards can't grasp that.
>>26916126
can we please?
This board couldn't be more cancerous
>>26916180

>>26916158
Because it looks nothing like a railgun. It can be two things, but railgun clearly isn't one of them.
>>26916196

Just anime hate.

You can't read? You're the one saying it's impossible that it's based off of a railgun.
>>26916141
Beetles in Japanese media are usually /m/ inspired in some way. Did you not know this?
>>26916223
>can't think about any non-anime concepts.
that sort of railgun is not unique to anime at all.
>>26916239
Yes, it is impossible for it to be based off a railgun. No, this has nothing to do with anime hate. How is this difficult for you?
>>26916236
Here you go, retarded fence-sitter with nothing to contribute.
>>26916248
>>26916236
Here's your (you) we all deserve some
>>26916256
It isn't impossible, insects are often associated with /m/ and mechs often have railguns.
How hard is this for you?
you guys realize the guy who says it can't possibly be a railgun is just trolling right?
it's also possible that he's samefagging posts disagreeing with him to simulate an argument

It's not impossible to have a railgun based beetelmon, this is not one though. There is a clear concept with the jaws and clear moves it's meant to use with that. Zap canon isn't even railgun themed, it's just a special move.

>>26916333
>anyone who disagrees with me is trolling or retarded
Opinion discarded.
>>26916367
I thought maybe there was at least one person in the railgun camp that was capable of listening to a legitimate point and presenting a counterpoint, but it's clear that that's not true. I'm done here you clearly aren't trying anymore, you probably don't even believe your own stance.
>>26916378
Can you not read, autist? I said you weren't trolling. I know you're being genuine, and this is causing a great deal of fremdschämen on my part.

Consider this: why was it such a big deal to you in the first place? Why did you take it as your moral duty to try to convince someone that this cartoon bug couldn't possibly be based on the concept of a rail gun because muh real life rail guns look more like canons? Why are you so obsessed with such a minor, inconsequential thing?
>>26916415
>trolling or retarded
I know you didn't say as trolling, can you literally not read? The irony of you calling me autistic while getting something so simple so wrong is thick.
>>26916445
How about the same question back to you, Mr Superiority Complex.
>>26916446
I didn't say retarded either, I said autistic.
>The irony of you calling me autistic while getting something so simple so wrong is thick
That isn't what irony or autism means. You should probably kill yourself.

He's right though, you are autistic
>>26916459

So the question still stands, Mr. Autistic Holy War.

Like the shape of real life rail guns? Clearly I'm just as autistic as you for using words correctly.

No, that is still wrong.
>like obsessing about anime railguns
I have not made a single post ITT in favor of it being related to railguns. You however have had a meltdown over others suggesting such, autist.
>>26916589
A meltdown? I disagree. No side of this was any more invested than the other, and the railgun side definitely devolved into pointless name-calling and boogeymanning first, definitely the meltdown side. Also I want to point out yet again that I wasn't he only one on the pincer side, I wasn't even the first.

>A meltdown? I disagree
You aren't in a position to know.
>and the railgun side definitely devolved into pointless name-calling and boogeymanning first
That has nothing to do with autism, and is in fact due to everyone recognizing that you were on the spectrum and deciding not to argue with you.
>Also I want to point out yet again that I wasn't he only one on the pincer side
Which I already acknowledged in my first post, and is in fact irrelevant.
This will be my last reply to you, so take this time to reflect and ask your mom to take you to get tested, it will make life much easier for you if you know.
>>26916798
Okay m8, what's autistic then, just not thinking it's a railgun? If all those posting tendencies aren't a sign, then you also got nothing on me.
>>26915511
Hopefully a brand new ability.
>>26916127
Nigger, do you even know what a rail gun is? The barrel is just used to prevent interference, the internals of it would look what everyone else is posting.
Naturally the barreled form is the optimized form, but that doesn't prevent the other variations from being rail guns.

Yes. 100% Paralysis 120 BP Stab Zap Cannon would be broken af famalamadingdong, given Vikavolt doesn't have trash stats. Then again, Talonflame's stats are horrific anyways :^)
>>26922752
Machamp can do the same with confusion and it's just barely UU with more than decent stats, especially compared to what an early route bug might have. I just hope it's fast enough for scarf purposes
>>26922752
It'd be fine. Not broken. Just having a really strong move isn't enough to make a pokemon good. It's actually probably pretty low on the list. Even with decent stats for an early game mon.
>>26915511
tfw its swarm
>>26922780
Confusion and Paralysis aren't even comparable. A 100% chance to confuse is a bonus, but it's an inconsistent and gimmicky status while Paralysis cripples basically anything that doesn't have guts.

Will still probably be too slow to use it against offense, and fatter teams usually don't care much for paralysis and usually carry cleric support. I fail to see how it could be able to do much, no matter how good it sounds on paper.
I'd probably still use it in AG for shenanigans.

>>26924379
This thing is 85-95 speed minimum.
