Three types, there's also sound themed ones like the Exploud line and Meloetta.

Walking charges things in Pokémon, the VS Seeker, the PokeWalker, etc.

Exeggcute's been here since day one, a singular Pokémon having multiple discreet bodies has just always been an option. Rillaboom's drum is part of its body, it just grows it the same as it does anything else. The flat parts literally bend around to connect to its back when attached. It's a...

Hyper Fang is more the first category than the third. Nothing that learned it is in SwSh. And it was planned to be in BDSP at one point, it has an animation. To be fair, it did shake up the types, pre-dexit the only Ghosts who could hack it in the high tiers were Gengar and Eviolite Dusclops...

Natural Cure announces itself because of the Pokéball UI elements that show if a Pokémon has a status or not in the actual games. Regenerator does not show itself like that nor do the Light Clay or weather rocks.

They've sort of done that a bit, it's had Stored Power since Gen 5 and SV gave it Trailblaze and Alluring Voice.

I mean, it's got Flamethrower/Overheat. When Hidden Power existed it ran HP Ice (in addition to one of the Fire moves), and there's a reason most Electric types don't get Special Ice moves. The only ones that do are already Ice (Rotom Frost and Arctozolt) or Water (Chinchou line) and Iron...

666 is also Vivillon's dex number.

It's a reference to Genetic Apex, the first Pocket set.

It doesn't matter how close it is, unless it is literally exactly an actual Pokémon design there is no legal grounds for suing for infringement on aesthetics.

I mean, Raichu X will only get better as more Pokemon that can take advantage of Electric Terrain get added, and probably won't get unseated as the main Electric Terrain setter until Tapu Koko gets added. Unless gen 10 introduces a new one that gets added first anyway.

Assuming whatever item it's running isn't boosting its Attack, 252+ Atk Ursaluna Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 76+ Def Scovillain-Mega: 135-160 (40.4 - 47.9%) -- guaranteed 3HKO Had to use the regular calculator so the damage is slightly off (For context Facade came out to: 252+ Atk Ursaluna Facade...

It's been a while but the answer to why there are two when everything learns Protect struck me the other day. Detect was infinitely available from the department store, Protect was single use unless you had a second Gameboy and a gen 1 game to trade Nidorans from.

Parting Shot into an ally also has other benefits if the ally has Defiant or Competitive or Contrary.

I think Bulbasaur line are supposed to be Frog Seed (Fg.SD/Bulbasaur), Frog Grass (Fg.GR/Ivysaur), and Frog Flower (Fg.FL/Venusaur)?
