All the best octopodes shoot fire and ice.
Dark is pretty well balanced I feel. The only things I would change are removing fairy's bug resistance, buff ice a bit defensively, and nerf water a bit defensively.

We live in a glorious age where a boxing yeti crab exists.

Lots of the new designs kinda look a bit like stuff out of Dragon Quest, which isn't a criticism I really dig all the new critters.

How would you nerf water? Add a weakness or remove a resistance?

Personally, I'd be interested in adding a poison resistance.


And for Ice, I'd like to remove the Rock weakness and add resistance to Ground and Water. It wouldn't make it great, but certainly more usable.

I think it's because they're designed with the 3D model in mind rather than just a strong portrait so they're solidly built and appealing from multiple angles

Yeah, the move to 3D really killed a lot of the stylistic sprites of the old games (Xatu, Sigilyph come immediately to mind).

Though it also breathed new life into a lot of mons.

They weren't killed by the move to 3D, they were killed because of the incredibly stupid idea that was Sky Battles.

I agree, the only pokemon that were affected were those that could fly

but they looked really bad for a terrible idea of a gimmick battle

I wonder if it's fixed... :q:

My disdain for you all knows no bounds.
Z-moves do get affected by type immunities and are still gone for the battle if that happens. Oddly enough the start of the Z-move animation still plays. Z moves are also coded as only having 1 PP, so Protect/Detect blocking them will probably still waste them. Probably not gonna be the game changer Megas were.

Islands might have their own dexes this time around.

There was a screenshot of Skarmory still flying, so I doubt it.

I've always felt it should be the other way around and Water should be weak to Poison.

i think the pomparunt -> hyezuka line (dark to dark/fighting) is one of my personal favorites



(i chose the female sprites for the 2nd and 3rd forms cuz their pompadours are cuter)

I don't have low self-esteem. I have low esteem for everyone else.
I could never get into Pokemon Uranium because the new designed Pokemon were so completely poo poo/Neopets territory.

Sage on the other hand has the best unofficial Pokemon roster that a good chunk of the artwork and designs could be official. I love the chupacabra so much.
It seems to take place in a desert region? Or South America? (I'm seeing a lot of Mexican and Mayan mythology sprinkled in a lot of the designs)

Making water weak to poison would probably be how I do it too. It seems like the best option.

South American. It probably has a little of everything region wise. You start out in a snow area.

That does explain all the early Ice types.

Shame that Sage has so many good looking mons, I will never get around to playing it but it looks neat.

also of note is that the sage pokedex has neither fairy types or megas, mainly because it was pretty much compiled before fairy came out and the devs don't want to set back development just to try and shoehorn in every new thing that happens in the meanwhile. from what i understand it's being worked on for sure, but it's a slow process.
