It's a sword. Even with those immunities and resistances, I think he'd be more offensive than defensive stats-wise. Then again, offensively, Ghost/Steel is decent at best.

Hey y'all /vp/oreon friends, just now I got to know about the new Soulcaliburmon, and immediately got into /vp/ because I knew every thread would be about it, and let me say that in every new gen, when new Pokemons are being revealed little by little, I usually don't go all "10/10, will train!" in every one I like (and I still don't know which starter will I choose until I know how their final evolved forms are), I usually don't decide what Pokemons I like the most untill I see all of them, but for this one here, is an obligatory "99/10, will train" for me.

The reasons are: It's a ghost type, my favorite type, plus I'm a ghost trainer and tried every ghost Pokemon in competitive play.

It's a freaking sword, which I find amazing... it does not only appeal to my inner 15 year old, but I really like fantasy swords and weapons.

it's typing combination makes it awesome, and here like everybody else is hopping it does have levitate (chances though, are that it's gonna have at least hyper cutter and possibly other new ability).

Now for the first time I'm hyped for a new Pokemon of the new gen.

Why would a Gallade want to wield a self-unsheathing sword-pokemon when he has TWO blades which he can unsheathe at will?

Let us hope that this new pokemon gets a decent movepool and a nice knightly evo. Otherwise it may as well be a mediocre combatant and a permanent guest at "what should be done to fix this pokemon?" threads.

I think I like it, I'm all for Gamefreak putting out unusual typings.

I know I'm going to get flac for saying this, but it doesn't "look" like a Pokemon. It makes the series premise of loving and caring for your Pokemon kind of awkward when you've got things like possessed swords running around. Though you could probably say the same thing about first gen designs like Magnemite or Voltorb.

>>12886995
He said typing this good you fucking idiot. Water Ground types, Scizor, Forretress and Ferrothorn each have a 4X weakness. Slaking gets hit for neutral damage by basically everything.

The sword gets hit neutrally by 4 types, has either one or two 2X weakness and then resists or is immune to everything else.

If it has good stats it'll be ridiculous.

You'll notice that all of those have extremely crippling weaknesses.

A few pokemon like rotom, espeon, latios, and sometimes sashgar on HO teams use hidden power fire, though not all the time. Magnezone uses hp fire for steels as well, and venusaur uses hp fire because of the sun boost.

That is obviously a major troll. But for the fucks who will believe this, let's have a quick japanese lesson.

There are three "alphabets" in japanese, if you will. Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji. SOMETIMES there is a fourth, known as Romaji, which is the latin alphabet.

What we're focused on is Katakana, which Gardevoir's name comes from. Katakana is the one that the japanese use to spell foreign words without using Romaji. Now let's break this shit down, shall we?

First of all, vowels. There are five. A, I, U, E, and O. The pronunciation of them NEVER EVER CHANGES, unlike in english.

>A
Ah

>I
E

>U
Oooh

>E
eh

>O
O

サーナイト
>サ + ー
The first character is Sa, and the second character used makes you prolong the pronunciation of the a in Sa. So it's pronounced Saa. The equivilent for the english 'Sir'.

>ナ
This is the symbol for Na. So right now, we have Saa/Sir and Na.

>イ
Katakana for the japanese I. So now it should start to sound like Saa Na I, which souns like N-aye. So Aye, like what a fucking pirate would say. And put the N in front and you get Nigh.

>ト
Japanese for 'to'. Not 'to' as in "I'm going TO the market." but like what homer simpson says, if you were to replace the D in D'oh with a T, making T'oh.

So now we have saanaito. We've established that Saa is supposed to mean 'Sir' and now if we smash the na, i, and to together, what do we get? Naito, or Knight. Sirknight.

>>12883282

>>
>>12888269
You can't seriously be this dense.
First, that's katakana, not kanji. Katakana is frequently used for foreign words transcribed into Japanese. Because Japanese doesn't have the spelling for some sounds, you can translate it several ways.
サ = sa
ー = long vowel, in this context it's a
ナ = na
イ = i
ト = to
So yes, the most literal English transcription would be "Saanaito." But, here's the thing. Because you can't write "sir" or "knight" in Japanese while maintaining the same spelling, you have to take alternatives. Sir, for example, can be spelled saa or siru. You'll find the same thing with similar sounds. Naito is, of course, knight or night. Given Pokemon frequently borrows English or other languages for even the JP names (just look at gen 1 names for an example, particularly the Eeveelutions), it's PROBABLY meant to be Sirknight.

>>
>>12888571
You'll never see an English word written in katakana written with the katakana according to how it's spelled, but always how it's pronounced. So it will never be "siru" but always "saa".
