Huh. So Poison -> Fairy? That's a pretty big change for poison's offensive ability.

Is that why they are adding Fairy types?

Because I know adding steel and Dark types was ENTIRELY based upon balancing out psychic and normal types.

Pretty much, though it was more about balancing dragon types. The Poison type edit was a secondary goal.

It also gives another check to the fighting types that ruled the 5th generation, and Fire gets another resist. (It was one of the types most defensively screwed by the omnipresence of stealth rock.)

Poor fire type. Maybe Charizard might pop out of NU now.

And yeah, EVERYONE AND HIS DOG used fighting types, especially in UU where I played.
I don't think I ever saw a team without either a Mienshao, a Heracross or a Machamp.

To be fair, Charizard is one of the top special attackers in NU and sees decent, if somewhat unwarranted, use in other tiers because his Solar Powered Fire Blast is the most powerful neutral hit in the game in the sun. Also it made top 10 in Tier Shift for at least a couple months, where sun teams are silly common. (The Smogon metagame where under-OU pokemon get +5 to each base stat for each tier they are below OU.) Charizard with 124 base SpA and 115 speed gets a little silly.

Oh, of course. That's where Snorlax came in handy - if it could stand up to a Choice Band V-Create from Victini, it can stand up to a Solar Powered Fire Blast. Probably.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Note it's mane is a kanji

The same one that some of the Fire Blast animations use. Presumably 'Fire'.

EDIT: It means 'Big', but it represents the 'Daimonji' festival.

Well, to be fair, with its head in the way and the tilt of its mane, it's hard to say if it's 大 (big) or a stylized 火 (fire).  So it could have been either.

"Grass types now immune to spore and powder moves." Hope you like Hypnosis. :3
"Electric types cannot be paralyzed."  Period. ^_^
"Ghost types cannot be affected by moves that prevent Pokemon from fleeing in battle."  Wait, does that include abilities like Shadow Tag and Magnet Pull? O.o

Oh, and the names for the second-evos are Quilladin (Chespin), Braixen (Fennekin), and Frogadier (Froakie).

Why does Braixen have a broom for a tail.
