Pretty sure the official site confirmed it was a water special move. Hopefully Sparkling Aria turns out better than in sounds since Primarina is the best starter with the best name (They're all good)

Serebii claims it's water type, yeah.

This is the description for Incineroar on Serebii:


i already loved it beforehand but god. this is. so good. He's basically Kumatetsu from The Boy and The Beast.

Alright, I'm 100% on board with Incineroar now.

Also they revealed one of the Legendary ?Prevos? with 0 fanfare or anything beyond its design. That was weird as hell.

If it weren't leaked that he was a legendary pre-evo then it'd be fine revealing him like this.

I mean yes but once you beat the old npcs, they can join you in a double battle. What's not to love about that?

Doubles could be good if it was more prevalent.

Like in Colosseum/XD it was great. When like 3% of battles are double in the game its absolutely awful/

Hmmm.... with the water starter being part Fairy... are they going to make Ghost type hit super effective on Fairy types now...? It would make it a double type triangle for the starters, and they like doing that

Fairy needs a SLIGHT nerf. Nothing as drastic as making it as bad as Ice but weak to Ghost makes it easier to take down.

Yeah I'd say it's dead leaves and sniper theme. Hard to see and hit rather than literally incorporeal.

Ghost is kinda nuts as an attacking type already. It's basically as good as Dragon except even better because if you pair it with Fighting it hits Dark and Normal too.

It would be better if you had Fairy weak to Bug instead of resistant to it.

Bug should not be resisted by 7 types, what the poo poo?

Yeah but Ghost type distribution is not great, and if it's against a special wall it's not so tough.

Unless it's Gengar. Then you pray.

Ghost also has the issue of having gently caress-all for physical moves.

Considering your choices are

Lick- poo poo
Astonish- poo poo
Shadow Sneak- Ghost type Quick Attack
Shadow Punch- Ghost type Feint Attack
Shadow Claw- Ghost type Slash
Phantom Force- Ghost type Fly

Physical ghosts are kinda screwed on that front. I gotta hope Rowlett and Mimikyu are special attackers.
