Huh, rumor is that Ghost no longer resists Bug in BW2
Wow this is true the official type chart was shown and nothing is marked on bug or ghost for each other.
Here's a link http://www.serebiiforums.com/showth...hread-Read-First-Post&p=14695388#post14695388
I refuse to accept they'd change the type chart to make Ghost neutral to Bug and outright ignore Water, Dragon, Ice, Poison, Psychic and Steel

If that is to be believed, Stellar (and I personally do believe it), that means that Cilian and co are no longer leaders. That info, paired with screen shots of the Shadow Triad returning, may mean that the rumours that the 1st gym leaders and the triads are the same people.
...But the Shadow Triad already existed when the triplets were Gym Leaders...

Why are you worried about its spread moves? Rain gains an extremely good user of Follow Me. Surf/Follow Me/Protect/Ice Beam seems great on rain; hell, it's probably good in general with its fantastic defenses.
Zard still sucks and Venusaur can't have Weather Ball with Chlorophyll :/
Agreeing that type chart is hopefully a typo.
You never know. According to Bianca, the triplets were the only Gym Leaders that she couldn't contact at the end. Maybe that's because they're actually the Shadow Triad.
'shudders'
I'm hoping that the shadow triad AREN'T the Striaton leaders. I don't know if that's the way it'll be though...
Also, if they are the Shadow Triad, what does that make Cilan in the anime? That's an interesting plot hole to fix.

There's actually quite a bit of evidence that the Striaton Triplets are the Shadow Triad in the manga Pokémon Adventures/Pokémon Special. Whether or not this reflects anything in the games is up for debate, however.
Really? *checks*
My Hard Cover BW Guide has Keldeo and Meloetta listed in the Pokémon Name section (as "Words you can use in the Easy Chat System"), but not Genesect. Still, that's kind of a big goof... though if I never looked at those words before, I wonder how many other people with the guide never checked before either.
Yeah in the manga Pryce is stuck in an alternate dimension, it doesn't affect the games storyline at all.
Anyway according to Bulbapedia all the berries you couldn't get will make a return in BW2. So that AgilityPetaya Empoleon and Custap Wobbuffet and etc. would be a thing again.
In the original games the manual had a type chart that said Ghost was super-effective against Psychic.
Any eight-year-old who charged into the Saffron City gym with a Haunter or Gengar discovered that 1) Ghost attacks did no damage to Psychics, despite what the manual said; however, 2) the only Ghost attack which used the standard damage formula was Lick, rendering point 1 moot; but 3) all the ghosts in Gen I were part-Poison, so they were weak to Psychic-type attacks.

Banned deucer.
Wow, still no Dark-type gym.
yet there's three dark type elite four member's. Im just surprise there's no elite four rock,grass,steel,flying,electric type members.
Actually if the whole ghost doesn't resist bug thing is true, I can see why they did it; it gives Spiritomb and Sableye a weakness. Still, it doesn't make any sense to do it now since the compatible issues, so it's probably a typo, but I can see the reasoning to do it.
He said the triplets not being Gym Leaders anymore would be a hint for them being the Shadow Triad, and I said that it doesn't make sense because we already had the Triad in BW, when the triplets were Gym Leaders. If they are the Triad now, they were the Triad in BW already. So no, it's not a hint or an evidence of anything.
Actually, if I recall correctly, the developer's intention WAS for Ghost to be SE on Psychic, but they fucked up something (lol RBY) and it did no damage instead.
Also, wanna see something really cute?
That's from a FRLG guide, if I recall correctly. They hadn't even held that new move contest yet and, coincidentally, the move chosen (DRACO METEOR) was almost the same as this Meteor Rain move.
That might be from the D/P guide, I'm not sure.
Something also from the FR/LG guide: TM10 is only mentioned once in the entire guide, in the TM list. Under "Location", it simply says "unlockable", which makes no sense. (It's actually only obtainable through 5% Pickup, so it's reasonable that it's never mentioned elsewhere in the guide.)
