I don't like the thought of a new type being added. It will be (in a small way) like having to re-learn Rock Paper Scissors because you add a gun or something out of the blue.

Its going to be a great tossup in the meta because of that.

Fairy? ....Fairy? Weird.

Adding in dark and steel wasn't a huge issue.
FAIRES? really? What next witches?
I really dislike that Mewtwo evolution For once I actually want them to copy Digimon designs or whatever it is many people complain about (for the record, I like Digimon allot but I noticed people dislike it when Pokemon look like Digimon)
dat ain't your gameboy's pokemon
Of course, all this talk of types is irrelevant to anyone who plays the game properly (power-level the first three pokemon you catch until you can just steamroll every opponent)
[QUOTE=CoolCorky;40996528]Of course, all this talk of types is irrelevant to anyone who plays the game properly (power-level the first three pokemon you catch until you can just steamroll every opponent)[/QUOTE] I heard the latest games take steps to prevent that, forcing you to actually use type advantages and tactics or get wrecked by the Gym Leaders.
If Fairy type beats Dragon types, and has less weaknesses than Ice types, then the type that belongs to some of my favorite Pokemon will be near-useless.
Okay, and what will be effective against Fairy types? Huh? Huh!? [editline]11th June 2013[/editline] THIS IS VITAL INFORMATION
[QUOTE=SuperDuperScoot;40996608]Okay, and what will be effective against Fairy types? Huh? Huh!? [editline]11th June 2013[/editline] THIS IS VITAL INFORMATION[/QUOTE] According to rumours, Poison and Steel; types that needed something else to be super-effective on.
I thought this game came out last year.

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40995828]what kind of pussy dragon gets affected by faries 11/10 not buying this shit[/QUOTE]What always happens to dragons in FAIRY tales?
[QUOTE=Yahnich;40996802]steel is super effective against grass and rock though which isn't terrible, poison is rather useless because a lot of grass types are also poison type anyway if there's like 6 fairy type pokemon this gen poison type moves will remain shit[/QUOTE] Steel isn't SE against Grass. Steel is SE against Rock and Ice. But what you said about Poison types is pretty much true. If Fairy types are weak against Poison, it'll give Poison types a much needed buff. Ice could stand to use a defensive buff or two. It only resists itself and sports a Fire, Rock, Steel, and Fighting weakness.
[QUOTE=SgtWoodsy;40999574]What always happens to dragons in FAIRY tales?[/QUOTE] they get owned by anything but actual fairies
Hmm. With the Ocarina remake, this game, and the new Animal Crossing, I'm starting to feel interested in getting a 3DS.
Generation V has the worst looking Pokemon I've ever seen.
