So cool!

Water types and special attackers are great in Hoenn, so it's really no surprise that Milotic solos fairly easily.

Wow

I feel like sand is really strong in regulation H. A lot of sandstorm friendly mon are good for countering the meta. The main weakness with sandstorm right now is having to play around rain/sun. Peliper is a particular problem but can be punished hard if switched in on a rock slide. Trick room is hard to counter once it goes off but a prankster with taunt can help.

This video deserved a hundred thousant likes

Why does there need to be Better protects when protect is already so good that it’s in most Pokémon’s moveset

Call the Ghost one ''Haunting Shield'' or maybe ''Cursed Shield''

The problem is offensive synergy, because bug + almost any type is bad coverage (except maybe ghost) it requires a third "stab" like close combat to work. For what it's worth Kleavor runs this concept pretty well in lower tiers.

Why isn't tinkaton sm not super effective on Corviknight by default

Chloroblast becoming Recharge bases is so much worse than recoil

You really didn't have to lose that first game at all. Just keep spamming Draco

As king ghost said, Golisopod beats all dragons without any problem. Befits for the best pokemon of the series.

As someone who is new to VGC, I am shocked at how little coverage there is for this event.

Good stuff my dudee ❤️❤️

Just to clarify, they aren't allowing streams of Grand Challenge 1?

Cool vid but grass is weak to 5 types…

here before you go viral

I love sand teams, which there was like a Kyogre/ Groudon restricted mon that set the sand

I don’t think defeatist makes archeops useless. He still has like 140 attack and great speed, he basically has the power of a legendary so it makes sense they gave him that ability

Get Well soon bro. Also I agree fully that every Rotom form should get a separate ability

My Boi Golisopod Solos them all no question asked

Did you get the shiny online or offline? Roughly how much have you caught before getting the shiny?

Nice vid 👍

Its sad. Bug type is my favourite type. Doing playthroughs with only bug types is challenging. I don't play competitively but i still think that fairy should take normal damage from bug type. Also stat boost and good abilities would help too. I don't want bug to be top tier type, but not the worst one.

To answer the title: um, because they're bugs, and you squish them.

I think kabutops should be water/bug I think rampardos should be dragon/fighting,while rampardos was steel/ground Aurorus would be ice/fairy,i think

For me bug must not be weak to rock because you cant hit a butterfly,bees,mosquito a housefly a ladybug etc using a rock so for me if its a dual type(bug/flying)they must resist rock attacks

Finally, pelipper love! He was my first bird too!

Honestly a chunk of the bugs feel like they just fell victim to "Early Route Syndrome", where because they're available before you even have a single badge, Game Freak tries to fit them into a niche where they're good for the early game but fall off super hard soon after. I say "tries to" because a lot of the times it feels like they overcorrect, especially since some of the first gyms are Rock type, making the Bugs already hard to justify using, even after their power spike. 4 straight generations of the early bugs not even breaking 400 BST after fully evolving really did a number on the perception of the type as a whole. Gen 5 felt like they finally wanted to make some decent early bugs with Leavanny and Scolipede, which were at least a step up from the rest, even if they are available way later compared to their buggy brethren. But then they made yet another Butterfree in Gen 6 anyway, though with slightly higher stats at least. I haven't played either of the mainline Switch games myself, but Lokix feels like what I've always wanted from an early Bug type. Not the strongest thing ever, but still powerful if used right. If I were to change the game to try and buff the Bug type, there's a great video by TH-camr CammyMeleeTea that goes over adjusting the type chart for several weak types that I think has some good ideas. They suggested making Bug neutral to Fairy while resisting Fairy, having it resist Poison, removing Ghost's resistance to it, and making it so that Bug types can't be confused, similar to how Electric types can't be paralyzed. I could honestly see those type chart changes alone helping the type a bit, but I also think that Game Freak needs to stop being so afraid of the early game mons being too strong, especially as we've seen more examples of decent early game mons that don't completely take over the meta.

Always love seeing these kind of videos because even if I don't agree with the typing it's interesting to see the reasoning different people have for that kind of stuff. Love it, Fossil pokemon are some of my favorites.

Oh yeeaaah instant subscribe. I love this theory. I do have different opinions lol but I liked the video.

...Horseshoe crabs are still alive, and they're definitely not venomous

I personally love the idea of archeops being pure flying type

Honestly would've liked to see you fill in the blanks for the Galar fossils. Still, great video!

such a short video, quick to the plot, no filler. this guy truly is a dedicated speed runner

normal-rock

Because Pokémon Company and GameFreak refuse to actually give the bug type….realistic buffs. All BUGS should not supper from status results like confusion or paralyzed. Bug should do super affective damage to fairy, ground and water. Bugs in stories defeat fairy types. Bugs dig, tear and eat ground. Bugs drink water and a lot need water to survive and repopulate.

They need to limit u-turn distribution, fix the base stats, and make stealth rocks flat, or maybe even only effect levitating pokemon, but do more damage in turn. Making fairy type as good as it is only hurt. Perhaps make both bug and psychic resist fairy?

me convida kkk

Soooo Nice to See this 🐟 witch ev has it

The brains/minds of bugs cant comprehend evil deeds, ghosts, or the attack on the the psych so they should resist dark, ghost and psychic type moves. That would be a nice deserving defensive boost.

Helped Wuppa with the team! Pretty cool to see this here

Great video! I never used Mr. Mime since it was a trade only mon. Wish I had after watching your run

Thanks for using this team ! If your wondering why I have tera ghost on zom, it's because it hard counters calyrex ice and other zacians. (Trick room hard counters this team) Also I think you should include your discord in the description of videos so people without community tab can show you their teams and more video ideas for you

Nerf U-Turn, lowering its accessibility while allowing a lot of Bug Types to get it. Nerf Volcarona by some stat points. Give Bug Types a passive like naturally bypassing Reflect/LightScreen/Veil or Ignoring Entry Hazards due to bugs having an easy time getting in places they shouldn't be. Reverse the type matchup of Bug vs Fairy, Bugs Resist Fairy and deal SE damage to Fairy because a lot of fairies in common depictions use bug elements, so why wouldn't the original beat the copy. For the love of god, give bug types some kind of terrain or weather interaction like "Firefly's Domain : Grants all Bug and Fairy Types the equivalent of one stage of speed, grants Bug Types a 15% boost to all attack calculations (similar to Life Orb, but halved) while this is in effect and grants the Unaware Ability in terms of calculations to all attacks from all parties except Bug Types for the purpose of their attacks. I'm not sure if anything else can give the type's middling mons (not even the lamest ones, just average ones for the type) a niche...

Bug-type _moves_ are pretty great, but Bug-type _Pokemon_ themselves are kind of a tough sell.

It’s not bad considering that no less than three types are weak to it.

I feel like fairy resisting bug is a response to popular bug moves on non bug types. They need to make bug also resist fairy, that would atleast balancing things out giving bug a little more important defensive utility.
