Pokemon Moves That Could Have Two Types

surf should do fire and ghost damage

[@hattruck8607]

That would make it super effective against Ghost, Psychic,Ice,Bug and Grass, while being resisted by Dark,Water, Dragon and Fire and not doing any damage to Normal(and Psychic in Gen 1)

​@pettermiranda4651 that'll take ×20 damage. With any luck, that does so much damage that it actually overflows into doing nothing.

[@wail13]

This gave me the great idea that Tri-Attack should really be a three-hit move, with 30 base power and rotating between all three types. Keep it using normal type for STAB since the iconic mons for it are Porygon and, like, Dodrio.

[@yonkodude]

That would be so cool so it gets normal stab (+ adaptability) then can do super effective damage and break sash. Going by the logic id assume it also can do the calculation for status effect separately so its a 1/10 x3 instead of 2/10

[@patrickchipman8652]

7:45 Now watch them demonetize it Also when I was a kid, I was watching a friend play crystal and he encountered a spinarak and I freaked out because I thought it was shiny; turns out that crystal just decided to change the colors of a bunch of pokemon like spinarak and sneasel... I miss my purple boi...

[@MEPlaysGames]

Fortunately I think we’re in the clear, KZbin’s guidelines say that censored swearing is fine

[@robertlupa8273]

Frankly, brown Sneasel was an error caused by a leftover from its beta design from what I've heard. Spinarak however seems more like them giving it a "nighttime" color palette since it's a nocturnal Pokemon.

I remember as a kid, thinking Tri Attack was an Electric, Fire AND Ice-type attack, until I actually saw its move type after catching a Doduo.

[@obambagaming1467]

I think the 16x damage issue could be fixed by making those moves deal 4x damage at most. Some would already be great moves. They dont need to insta delete Pokemon when just selecting the move

[@brendantw]

4x is basically already a delete button, does it really matter to cap it if it's going to KO either way :/

[@yonkodude]

@@brendantwhonestly it probably does because there is very good chance of potential overflow damage which then turns the delete button into a delete 1 hp button. Capping it is definitely the right way because it would make the move useless on the things it would want to hit if it overflows.

[@brendantw]

@@yonkodude 1st off not how overflow works and second off you're way overestimating the damage

fiery wrath is G moltres's signature move, not burning jealousy. also yeah G articuno's signature move is called freezing glare.

[@lasercraft32]

I personally _like_ that they aren't... Though its strange that only Freezing Glare inflicted a status condition. It would have been so unique having a Fighting type move that gives paralysis and a Dark type move that can burn.

[@NightmareSyndrom]

In Gen 7, Spinarak was given its own signature move, Toxic Thread. A non damaging move that inflicts poison and lowers the opponent's speed.

[@robertlupa8273]

Unfortunately, it learns it in early-to-mid 50s (Spinarak)/early 60s (Ariados), which is way too late for an early game Bug to learn what's basically Poison Powder + String Shot _(with way better accuracy, but still)._

[@davidhower7095]

I always thought that Flying Press did Fighting OR Flying type damage, whichever would be more effective. Is this not true?

[@StormlordOG]

Unfortunate not lol

[@Necfreon]

@@StormlordOGthere’s actually a limit break in epic battle fantasy 3 that does the exact same thing as flying press only real difference is of course instead of doing flying and fighting damage it does earth and bomb damage and it did it before flying press was a concept I believe

Spinarak is a fraud. It’s supposed to be a spider, but it has 6 legs instead of 8.

[@Dominion_Flower]

The moves belonging to Kyurem's fusions, Ice Burn and Freeze Shock, could do both ice and fire/electric damage, respectively.

[@starterking]

Im not sure flying types would be immune to muddly water in this hypothetical. We would never know the true answer since flying press is fighting at base and nothing is immune to flying so we don't know how the secondary typing interacts with immunities, but it would be equally reasonable to assume muddy water as a water type move at base it would hit flying types bypassing immunity then adding the ground type for calculations. It would probably make muddy water more akin to thousand arrows in that regard hitting for neutral on flying types and flying electric types as what flying press does show is bug's resistance to fighting and weakness to flying is neutral.

[@stormbreaker_101]

the attempts to add swear words to make it Not Just For Kids is making me laugh so much.

[@Mngalahad]

multiple type moves can rarely be good. even types that mostly dont overlap like dark/electric would mean this dark type move cant hit ground types. it works better with freeze dry, where you can deal super effective damage on a type that normally could resist it. the combination canceling out super effective damage like flying press on rock is bad too.

[@peshomighty5051]

Yeah there is so many immunities rock and flying is the best hit all type.

[@JTripp999]

7:16 to 7:58 is the best segment in youtube history

[@completebuffoon]

Caterpie and rayquaza same video, green worm video?

[@nickdominique6015]

Some interesting move buffs I thought of while watching this video. For Smog, it would be really cool if it had the same accuracy and power, but maybe 30% chance to poison, 10% chance to lower accuracy, but ALSO had a status on the opponent kinda similar to Vivillon’s Powder. Where if the opponent uses a fire type move they combust and lose 25% health (maybe also change that to where if a fire type move is used on a smogged/powdered target they also take this damage). For Tri Attack what if instead of it being coded as all 3 types in 1 attack it was coded as a multi hit move that hit 3 times? Each hit having the chance to status. That way even if a pokemon is immune to one of the types they’ll still get hit twice by the other ones. Plus multi hit moves are fun for breaking subs, sashes, and sturdy so we could definitely use more of them, especially special attacking ones.

[@jaidyngear379]

Flying Press is available for costume Pikachu in ORAS it’s pretty useful in fights where you don’t have any fast fighting types.

[@peshomighty5051]

I also like the Pikachu Libre winkwink. Nudge nudge Horny

[@SSNNPBCC]

Caterpie video when? Thanks for reminding us about it! 🤠

[@rjba02]

Spinarak was my first shiny in pokerogue. Still haven’t beaten the game with it on the team. I tried so hard to make it work too. Perfect IVs, 4 egg moves, fed it all the vitamins it could take.

[@thefirespecialist9007]

So, im a big fan of the move Tri Attack! I find it a good option for Porygon2 and Porygon-Z, and its just Fun to use. (Togekiss and Alakazam are fun users too) Ever since it's Debut, it's been a Normal Type Move with 80 Base Power... but here is my Idea for a change: Tri Attack Type: ??? Base Power: 40 x3 Effect: This Moves deals Electric, Ice, and Fire Damage. Each Type is 40 Base Power. (Up to 120 Base Power total) Each Type takes separate Type Effectiveness when it's used against another Pokémon. There is a 30% chance to Burn (10%), Paralize (10%), or Freeze (10%). So, to explain easily: This move will do Base Power of 40, 80, or 120 based on the Opponent's typing. Some examples- Gliscor: Electric 0 Power. Fire 40 Power. Ice 160 Power. So the move would do 200 Base Damage and could only possibly Burn or Freeze. Flash Fire Heatran: Electric 40 Power. Fire 0 Power + Gives Flash Fire Boost. Ice 10 Base Power. So, 50 Base Power total. Skarmory: Ice 40 Power. Electric 80 Power. Fire 80 Power. So, 200 Base Power, and can get any of the 3 status conditions. Hisuian Zoroark: Electric 40 Power. Ice 40 Power. Fire 40 Power. So, the standard 120 Base Power. A move that shoots out 3 different Elemental beams, being Normal, honestly doesn't makes sense. Why can't Gengar be hit by a simultaneous Fire Ice and Electric shot? As much as I love Tri Attack, it should be reworked!

[@wingedbluj1674]

If I remember correctly, Flying Press does X2 damage to rock, meaning it's ignoring flying's type effectiveness in that case. I think that if Muddy Water is counted as water/ground, any stacking/conflicting type match ups are ignored for the most effective type. Meaning it would only deal water damage to flying types.

[@MEPlaysGames]

Flying Press is neutral against rock, it does take both types into consideration in that case and cancels them out

[@dongo_7880]

7:11 and dry skin parasect 32x weak to heat wave

[@Rhordric]

I think it would be funny if body press was steel fighting since the move is pretty much only used with iron defense users

[@lasercraft32]

Honestly yeah, Muddy Water should have been a ground type move. All the other moves with "mud" in the name are ground type, and there's a notable lack of special attacking ground type moves. As is Muddy Water just feels too similar to Surf.

[@alexpfeifle879]

Spinarak’s move Toxic Thread could be Poison/Bug type, though that would have no function since it does no damage 😂

[@mesplin3]

I think muddy water might be viable in this. Any moves that fit water/rock? There's no overlap between types I think.

[@apocrypha5363]

Use skill-swap to give an Alolan Sandshrew Dry Skin, then use Forest's Curse to add the Grass type to it. Then, your fire-fighting move is 64x effective!

[@LucasF25]

No, I'd like more moves like Flying Press cuz they're fun, but it absolutely can only happen with moves that share no common weaknesses, a free 4x weakness like that is BS, lol.

[@PorygonBugado]

Spinarak is a Bug/Water type

[@marverickbin]

They should just change the mecanics. Just calculate the damage as hit as one type plus the hit of other type, each half BP. As a twerk, add dual stab. Lets say a dual type 100bp move. If the pokemon has one type in common, it acts like 150, and if the dual type matches both types of pokemon, 200. Now, effectivenes: it causes the damage as 50% of one type and 50% the other. So, quad week pokemon would be like regular super effective: 100%+100%=200%. If one is neutral, and other super effective, 150%. If both neutral, 100%. If one is resisted, and the other is super effective, 25%+100% (more damage than neutral), and both resists = 25%+25%=50%, equal a songle type resist. Finally, immunity only if imune to both types (only ghost to normal/fighting), if imune to only one of the types, take samage from the other (either 25%, 50% or 100% if resist, neutral or super effective, respectively). Perfectly balanced way to reintroduce dual type moves.

[@kenthuang436]

I have an interesting idea for a damaging signature move for Polteageist called Tea Shot where it is primarily a Ghost type attack but also causes Water type damage and can also leave a Burn.

[@yourenbytemmieverse]

metronome should be an all type move. it wouldnt affect anything but i'd be cool.

[@0412010ryry]

Spinarak needs a regional form. There's enough spiders in the world it would be beyond easy.

[@brendantw]

If that's all it took for them to make a regional form then regional forms would literally be the lamest thing ever. A good regional shouldn't just be a different species. It has to be a similar idea with a new twist added on.

[@Qbe_Root]

I don't think Game Freak would make a move 4x or 0.25x effective against any one type, surely they had a lot more ideas regarding moves that bypass normal effectiveness rules, but decided that with great power comes great responsibility. (Even though you can still get 0.25x with Flying Press under Electrify or Normalize...) Also I'm afraid you're gonna need more than a few bleeped-out F-bombs to break the MFK curse, there are literal 18+ gore My Little Pony animations that got flagged as Made For Kids. And age-restricted at the same time. Make that make sense.

iirc, Flying Press is Fighting type, and it copies the Pokemon's secondary type to use. If you havk it into, say, a Dedenne, it'd be Fighting/Fairy. This also means that under the effects of Electrify, it'll be Electric/Flying, and under Normalise, Normal/Flying.

[@jordanandjohnathanpollak6536]

[@Missiletainn]

Muddy Water would just be 2x super effective against Fire and rock, because the damage calculator just checks if the move is super effective against that type, there is no levels of super effectiveness.

[@MEPlaysGames]

The game does check every multiplier. If Flying Press is affected by Electrify, it deals electric and flying damage. In that case, it deals 1/4 damage to pure electric types, not 1/2. It’s not just checking if it’s super effective or not very effective. The game takes every damage modification into account
