What's your favorite pokemon?

[MagmarFire]

Does Technician give attacks like that the same multiplier as a STAB bonus? If so, if you cube three over two...that's twenty-seven over eight. Basically a 3.375 damage multiplier per punch? Double that (for the two hits) and you get a whopping 6.75 damage multiplier, meaning a revised base stat of 304.25 for the entire attack?

...

Whoa.

Y'know, playing a game from the start again made me realize how much I love Geodude. He's a bruiser right at the beginning, same with Onyx. Love those two.

[The Glamour Nazi]

The funny thing is that i am probably one of the few people that understood you magmarfire...

[DarkZelda]

Imma going old school, but Articuno and Clefable are mine.
I rasied a Clefairy level 10 to Clefable level 83 (+Moonstone) and annialated Elite Four with it and its attacks Pound, Metronome, Strength, and Blizzard.
Hahaha Pokemon Red baby.

[DW]

Articuno was DEFINITELY my favorite bird. Entei was my favorite legendary dog...

[The Glamour Nazi]

I liked blue. Even though there is no difference. My favorite legendaries are, Raikou, Articuno, and Mew. So kawaii...

[Zelda Veteran]

Yeah, STAB also applies, I forgot to add that to the equation.
Ambipom = Beastly.

[Pale Dim]

Typhlosion, Moltres, Suicune, Rayquaza, Metagross, and Kyogre all the way! However...give me a Typhlosion anyday. I love Typhlosions. :D

Math


Spammage aside, you know how if a pokemon does a move the same type as it s own, it gets a multiplier of 1.5? (for ex: squirtle + water gun, water gun= 40. 40 x 1.5 = 60 damage). Does that apply to normal pokemon + normal moves, too? It's normal, so it has no type, but it's the same un-type, so it has to be, but it can't...

I used to absolutely adore Pikachu back when Pokemon cards and the show were all the rage at school, but after actually playing a few of the games... I don't know. I really like Charizard since I have such fond memories of raising him from a Charmander and then beating the crap out of any opponent that dared challenge me, but then my copy of "Blue" erased itself and my progress.

Lolololololol I could so quote you if I wanted to but I'm not gonna XDDDD

Hmm...Idk, probably Dragonite. And Sandshrew/Sandslash.
I liked all the pokemon a lot, my bro, I think, got me interested in Pokemon (and school, of course. People were trading cards left and right all over the place. The bus, the playground, wow XDDD)
I think Jigglypuff was my favorite Pokemon back then. (I can sorta do Jigg's voice too XDD)

I would assume so.

Normal is a type.  It's just not a very remarkable type.

That would be the STAB ("same-type attack bonus"). ;) And yes, it applies to Normal-types, too.

That link is win, by the way. :P

[Gamefreak]

You have no idea how much I want to try that next time I take my ACT.

[MagmarFire]

Try what, now, Gamefreak? Was it the math, by any chance?

[cacturnerules]

remarkable

*facepalm*


That word. Ring any bells from the hoenn pokemon anime? It sure brought pain back to my heart.
