Dual-types are cringe

mono type starters are cringe

>Pokemon is sharing two types
>STAB isn’t weaker than monotypes
Why is this allowed?

To make CHARIZARD stronger

>>58018217
>Starters shouldn’t be monotype
Why?

>>58018233
Because no monotype starter are significantly less likely to be respected than dual type starters.

Dual types are more fun

>>58018220
because if it was weaker that would be lame and gay and you're a faggot for thinking otherwise.

Fire/fighting is extremely underrated and barely any examples, but it's still the best type and most fun to play hands down

bait post let the thread die

>>58018275
Bumping just because you said this

>>58018258
Nah, its lame and gay that monotypes lack an offensive disadvantage

Yeah, pokémon went to shit when dual types started appearing in the pokédex

>>58019061
A second type could mean more or less defensive advantages though. Pure grass is better defensively than Grass/Ice or /Bug.

Technically speaking, wouldn't making only the primary typing have STAB fix this problem? It would require some switching up especially with normal flying types, but then offensively they would be equal and defensively it's a double edged sword that at least keeps all Pokémon feel unique from one another.

>>58019205
Then wouldn't that just make a secondary typing more of a hinderance for most types? Dragon types would gain almost nothing from having a secondary type, having an Ice secondary typing gives you a bunch more weakness for a single resistance, etc...

>>58019205
Do the exact opposite of this and make it so mono types have boost of around 20% to coverage moves

>>58018217
Fpbp. Boring piles of trash that only have one STAB option and stay the exact same as when they started.

Eruption spammer

>Exact same

>>58019695
>Cyndaquil: fire monotype
>Typhlosion: STILL a fire monotype
Must suck not being able to think

>>58019716
Not everything needs a second type
In-game, why would you need a starter pokemon not for their main type?

If Typhosion has a dual type game freak would respect it enough not to write rape libel against it
