Wait... you didn't know Pidgeot was Normal type? It's more or less tradition by this point that all the bird Pokemon you can catch early in the various games, like Pidgey, Taillow and Starly, are Normal/Flying.

[@wozaow]

he’s a tcg player, where all those birds are just seen as flying

[@KaleidosXXI]

@@wozaow Flying isn't even in the TCG to begin with, it got combined with Normal to make the Colorless type. There's a niche fanterm to call Colorless that are weak to Lightning "Bird type" but that's not commonly used or even consistent with all of the Colorless bird Pokemon.

Jack: do you think bill was the first furry Chucky Cheese: Am i joke to you?

[@donovan802]

Who else was caught completely off guard by the obituary part? That was so sudden.

[@achingjack]

did you know: there are like, two pokemon that are pure flying type. 99% of pokemon birds, if they don't have another dualtype like skarmory or hawlucha, are normal/flying dualtype. it drives me absolutely crazy

[@patbilek692]

Technically there are 3: tornadus, rookidee, and corvisquire. 4 if you count Arceus with a sky plate. But yeah it's ridiculous

[@BaconNuke]

@@patbilek692 And since Arceus was an exclusive event that probably not many did back in the day, that means it took until Gen 5 to get one.. and it was a legendary... so it wasn't even easily gotten so pretty much Gen 8 is when we got Rookidee to be a commonly found pure type... which is insane that it took 8 gens for them to be like "maybe we should make this actually usable in normal play"

It helps them more than it hurts them though. STAB normal is great to have.

Just pump all your stat points into dex lmao

[@SilverZephyrFalcon]

For the drink TMs: Each different drink you give the girl gives you a different TM. In the originals, these were Ice Beam and a couple others I forget. In the remakes they replaced them with Light Screen, Reflect, and another status move, since I guess they thought they were too powerful to give out at this point.

[@goodsamaritangaming1997]

The guide says Fire and Rock are super effective against poison. Well, it was partially right. Fire is super effective against grass/poison types like Bulbasaur or Oddish.

[@BaconNuke]

Rock resists poison so I guess it was just.. assuming.. like I did as a kid, that anything that resists would be super effective when you attack

[@goodsamaritangaming1997]

@@BaconNuke Either that, or they are basing it off of Geodude or Onix being part ground-type. You're probably more right than I am. Either they thought the same as any new player or they forgot that Levitate exists from gen 3 onward.

[@KaleidosXXI]

@@BaconNuke They could just be referring to using a resisted type instead of exploiting a weakness, which is honestly pretty solid advice.
