Being inspired by France, I bet there's a lot of cryptids to be based on.

I'm not a fan of the design. I love the typing, and I can only wonder what else we could get.

Could there be a Ghost/Rock coming?

>>12914749
I'm hoping we will finally get a spooky skeleton that will be found in the catacombs area (which better exist)

>>12914759
>Spiritomb

>>12914770
Isn't Spiritomb Ghost/Dark?

>>12914770
Not sure if troll

>inb4 ghost/dark/bug weather

I was hoping a ghost/steel knight for this generation. I think I'm ok with da swerd.

Now, I would love a fighting/ghost. Maybe a warrior spirit.

>>12914759
You know, we could get another Ghost/Dark for all I care. I don't mind a few repeated type combo.

>>12914743 (OP)
Ghost/Flying or Ghost/Normal would be beautiful.

>>12914816
ghost/ dark isn't cool anymore because they have weaknesses now

>>12914819
Drifblim is Ghost/Flying

>>12914819
>Ghost/Normal
I highly doubt that will ever happen

I was really pleased with the ghosts in Gen V, so I'm hoping that trend continues with VI. I'm really digging Honedge so far. Ghost/Grass or Ghost/Fighting would be neat types.

A grass/ghost is all I want, especially if it has a tribal theme like in gen /vp/

>>12914835
Also sorry for the name, forgot I had it on.

>>12914835
>gen /vp/
Leave

>>12914743 (OP)
Not what I expected for Ghost/Steel, but still not bad. Hopefully, it evolves into a suit of armor or something because making it offensively oriented would be a huge waste of potential.

Here's what we have left:

>Ghost/Fairy
>Ghost/Fighting
>Ghost/Grass
>Ghost/Normal
>Ghost/Psychic
>Ghost/Rock

I feel like the Pawniard line will have something to do with Honedge, like if you evolve Pawniard with Honedge in your party, it will evolve into a knight.

>>12914901
I'd imagine they'd make it unique somehow, since it's such a contradictory type combo.

The most interesting thing I can think of is to make it evolve from a regular Normal when leveled up with minimum happiness.

>>12915253

That doesn't make the design more appealing. Mythology has a lot of awkward bullshit, who'd like to play with a pokemon even barely resembling that Greek giants which have a shitton of limbs?

And I wasn't talking about originality. Just bad design.

Yes, a trash bag with holes in it who's cry is fart noises is much better than a sword possessed by a ghost.

The sword looks like something youd see in some shitty DA pokemon OC. Trying to justify a bad design by pointing out another bad design is fucking retarded. Trubbish has many qualities of other pokemon. The only qualities I see in honedge is: it has one eye like magmemite and it has a ribbon like chimecho. I think this is the first time I can actually say that I dont like a pokemon.

>>12915704
I'm sorry to tell you tell you this, but you have shit taste.

>>12915078
I absolutely love this concept.

It's like Bannette, who I also love.

Pokes like these make me seriously wonder what Pokemon really are, and why they share the planet with humans, and what makes them so different.

Honedge is the pokemon that really sold gen vi for me.

I'm gonna be rolling with Fennekin, (I think if the leaked evolution image is real, I like it, because I've always wanted a proper kitsune) Gogoat, Noivern, Honedge, Skrelp, and Sylveon.

A real gentleman's team.

why cant they just have a float mechanic where all pokemon that float above the ground be immune to ground attacks so they can have a useful ability with the added immunity

Because that would nerf Ground-types to oblivion?

>>12916218
They'd still be one of the most commonly SE types out there, though. So no, it wouldn't. They're already immune, just make it so that Levitate just isn't an ability.

>>12916218
not necessarily. only a handful of pokemon that arnt immune to ground would get it, and the ones that already have levitate get new more powerful abilities.

>>12916228

Not every Pokemon that levitates has the ability Levitate.

>>12916186

Calling it now, Honedge has something to do with the ingame Stonehenge. It would make sense, because otherwise the name doesn't allude to it being a ghost at all, just a sword. There is something mystical about Stonehenge, hence, Honedge.

In Japanese it's called "すてみタックル", that means something like Risky Takle.

They took Stonehenge and put it next to Carnac. So why can't other British phantoms inspire new pokemon designs? How about a banshee?

If Honedge (fucking Rubilax all the way) gets levitate ability rain teams will just get frightening.
