We have enough Fairies shoved up in our face as it is. :I
> shoved up our faces
> Fairies tied for smallest type with Ghost
huh

And they are explicitely based on Pixies/fairies. How can they not be Fairy?!

Sylveon, Xerneas, Gardevoir, repeated talk about Fairies and how they're new and super-effective against Dragon and how you should love them, a Fairy-type Gym, like 30 retypings, 4/23 (12/69, approximately 17%) of the new Pokemon being Fairy-type, several mentions of AZ's Pokemon being Fairy-type, a Trainer Class, maybe even two, that specialize in Fairies...

And Giovanni isn't exactly the epitome of heroism

We have dark type e4 tho ;-;

Ah yes... Karen and Grimsley. One is often quoted in one of the greatest dividing arguments of this fanbase, and the other is honestly really forgetable.

It got over-hyped. Steel and Dark only retyped where it made sense, and there was all of one reference to either being a new Type.

Fairy? Lololol, we'll just slap the type on half of every move.
Dark is the Evil-type in Japanese. That's the reason why there are no Dark gyms. They are aligned with the player.

So? Ghost-type is called Ghost-type in Japan, and yet every Trainer in Ghost-type Gyms is (hopefully) alive and well.

And Yveltal sides with the player in Y in spite of being Dark/Evil-type.

And Sidney from Hoenn was a Dark type E4 trainer! Hoenn needs a remake badly! Because everyone keeps forgetting he exists~

Grimsley was overrated. As someone who likes men in suits, I still don't find Grimsley appealing.

I like Sidney though.

I've never played Hoenn. I don't remember all the Hoenn Gym Leaders as quickly as the other regions.

That is a matter of perspective. :>

Anyway, 3 moves were retyped. And they all made sense given the theme of Fairy moves. Charm and Sweet Kiss can be compared to Baby-Doll Eyes. Moonlight to Moonblast.

If you are bemoaning that many of the introduced moves were Fairy, would you rather Fairies have like 6 moves in all?

He's bald. Blegh.

Just wait for the updated Sugimori artwork! He'll look fabulous then!

I LOVE Grimsley. He is my favorite Unova E4 member.

Hoenn was pretty boring in terms of Gym Leaders imo.

Shauntal was my favorite, though I like Marshall too.

The Hoenn leaders could've been good, it's just they weren't really involved. Sort of typical "here's your badge, kbai". (Which is my biggest complaint with the leaders this gen)

But of course a remake would fix that.

I think Gen V nailed that. Perfect amount of screen time for each.
