10 REALLY Bad Dual Typed Pokemon

Give Fire/Ground type Water Absorb as an Ability, and watch it wreck havoc

[@WeebGuru6]

Most definitely

Fire/Ground is bad unless your name is Primal Groudon and you can just evaporate water attacks

[@matthewkuscienko4616]

It also helps a ton that it has amazing stats and a wide movepool to work with

[@mesplin3]

Fire/ground is not a bad type combination.

[@asmodeus58XX]

Honestly, other than Grass, in my opinion, Fire is best left monotype. It's really good as it is, with access to Solar Beam and Sunny Day/Drought/Power Herb to pull a reverse Uno card against any Water types that aren't prepared to face the sun.

[@jbz4788]

Before watching I'm going to guess: Magcargo and Camerupt will be on the list.

[@JamesDunmore99]

😂😂😂 Exactly what I thought

[@basdemanaz]

Well camerupt was on the display for this video

[@ivanbluecool]

Dual type. You either help each other or hurt one another

[@garg4531]

Oh so true

[@pussmagic1541]

True. Same for if they introduce tri-type combos eventually, if the Pokemon Company wants to go in that direction, which I actually hope it happens, especially that will give Charizard some justice by giving it the Dragon-Type alongside with its pre-exisiting Fire/Flying-Type.

[@TKnHappyNess]

Surprising that Magcargo isn't here because that's one of the first who come to mind. 2 4x weaknesses to commonly used types in Ground and Water

[@strikerstratos]

And fire/rock dual typing is worse than fire/ground dual typing.

Duel type, yes it does.

[@attilaszanto2275]

At least when Delibird became a cyborg, it got banned from OU pretty fast.

[@joltx9909]

Swanna is actually pretty decent for most playthroughs. just like the elemental monkeys, it got neat attacks and speed that can serve you right until the end, while its HP and defeneses suffice

[@furby9284]

Swanna is one of my favorite Pokémon. So I use it often on playthroughs when it’s available. It’s served me very well. It’s just not a competitive powerhouse. But maybe that doesn’t matter. It’s my friend and we make it to Hall of Fame together :)

[@TRNatalie48]

I've been using one in Pokemon Y and it's been amazing. Plus if you're playing one of the games requiring HM moves, you can put both Surf and Fly on it and knock two essential (and actually good) HMs in one Pokemon.

[@valiantchris6456]

If your Pokémon's dual type makes it quad~weak but the Mon is hella slow, that is a recipe for disaster. Camerupt, both forms of Avalugg, Wo-Chien, Calyrex~Base, Okidogi, Tapu Bulu, I could go on.

[@crazychristopher1989]

Vanilla Avalugg from Pokémon X and Y is pure Ice. It's only the Hisuian variant from Legends Arceus that has a double typing.

[@jonathanbowers8964]

To be fair, Swampert isn't exactly a speed demon with a middling speed of 60, but it has strong enough defenses to still be viable in a playthrough. You need either high speed or decent bulk to overcome a 4X weakness.

[@et34t34fdf]

​@@crazychristopher1989normal avalugg might actually live a hit, so not completely unviable defensively. Adding rock typing must have been some kind of sick joke by gamefreak, no amount of defenses could ever make that typing good.

[@pokeperson1000]

Look, I don’t care that it is objectively inferior to Roost, what do you *_mean_* Vespiquen lost Heal Order!?

[@WeebGuru6]

Pokémon like aggron & rhyperior would be so good if it didn’t have the rock typing if it had the ground type

[@rockowlgamer631]

Yeah I feel like Aggron would've been better off as pure Steel.

[@pussmagic1541]

Or even better combine the Rock and Ground-Type and turn it into the Earth-Type. These Pokemon would be improved significantly, same for those like Carbink, Diancie (even though the first two have one of the better Rock-Type combinations being Rock/Fairy-Type), Carracosta, Aurous and Crustle.

[@dse763]

Rock/Ground may be shit defensively but good luck trying to resist STAB StoneQuake !

[@garg4531]

I don’t really do competitive so this was a very interesting watch for me, and hope I get to see more like it in the future!

[@LuigiTheMetal64]

At times I do things competitively. That is because I know Nature includes preferred flavors. Mints have no effect on the preferred flavors. At least that way the Pokémon can hold different Kinomi.

[@heroofthevoir7041]

What's funny is you mention Swanna. and yet in my copy of Black 2. it's my star player.

[@Camus1025]

Aggron is my favorite Pokémon, and i was fully expecting it on the list. Slow, low Special Def, and a type combo that results double weaknesses to both Fighting and Ground, which badly undermines its good physical bulk.

[@DawnLong-s3k]

Mystic Umbreon clearly stated that he is ONLY mentioning Pokémon who are available in the current generation. Aggron, unfortunately, is NOT in Gen 9

[@suiway]

Yaaaa even though rocky arcanine has a great ability, I sometimes choose the original arcanine just so that it's less likely to go comatose from being hit by a single speck of mud.

[@atomicpunk2360]

It’s either Magcargo or Delibird at number one I’m guessing. Haven’t watched the vid yet lol Edit: how did Magcargo not make the list?!?

[@nazeersadek6705]

9:00 dear lord!! Swanna needs an evolution nothing can save this Pokémon

bro didn't even elaborate on Camerupt or Noctowl like they're so bad that knowing they're bad it's all you need, like not even proof needed like with the others 😭

What website did you use at 10:10

[@zeldafan1315]

[@yeahyeahwowman8099]

Magcargo needs Storm Drain as its ability. Immunity to water, maybe give it a fire type attack uneffected by rain. I don't know, call it lava bubble. This would give Magcargo a cool niche of being a Fire/Rock type that can function in the rain.

[@roxannwinslow6730]

[@isidorodaviddoro1920]

Steel/rock Pokemon are terrible due to their many weaknesses and bad offensive prowess. Rock/ground is another terrible typing, basically almost anything that is combined with rock becomes bad except maybe grass or bug

[@pussmagic1541]

Rock/Fairy-Type and Rock/Flying-Type are the only other Rock-Type combos that are at least better than the rest. At this rate, they should just combo them with the Ground-Type and make them the Earth-Type. And also, be sure to let Carbink and Diancie join the party even though they're based on gemstones.

[@herculeanwarrior1541]

Man, it really hursts to see a majority of this list consisting of my some favorite pokemon

Problem with noctowl is it mediocre special attack and defense,like it's extrmely hard to set up calm mind against phisical attackers and even if you do he is way too slow to use air slash or psychic

[@christopherballero866]

How could you not at least have a dishonorable mention for hisuian growlithe line 4x weak to ground and water or shadow rider calyrex or dawn wings necrozma which both have 4x weakness to dark and ghost type

Calyrex shadow rider is one of the strongest pokemon of all time tho. And H arcanine isnt that bad, its better in vgc.

[@pussmagic1541]

Hoopa Confined as well with 4x weakness to Ghost and Dark-Types, which makes no sense whatsoever. Psychic should have been immune to Ghost-Types like back in Gen 1 and Ghost and Dark-Types should be able to resist each other.

[@DawnLong-s3k]

Carbink should be a dishonorable mention. It's in ZU. Sure, it has good bulk with 150 Def and Sp. Def, but every other stat is just 50. Also, it's meant to be to be a support mon, but most of its moves are attacks.

[@goGothitaLOL]

Just because it has a 4x weakness, doesn’t automatically make it bad (Dragonite/Salamence, Scizor, and Bisharp/Kingambit, and to an lesser extent Magnezone), you could go much worse than these dual-typings, plus Bug/Steel only has 1 weakness Can’t say the same for Rock/Steel and Fire/Ground tho (especially the latter)
