Re: Revealed Gen VI Pokemon Discussion/Speculation Thread
I agreed that GF can force a new type if it's what they want. I wasn't deciding what would happen, only what I think should happen; I was giving my opinion. Or am I not allowed to do that, either?
Actually, I think Landorus can fly due to the Kami trio's mastery of the winds (hence their part-Flying type, like Sky Shaymin). I don't think there's any mon that can fly that doesn't have psychic powers, isn't part Flying and/or doesn't have the ability Levitate.
Back to Sylveon's winglessness, though. I don't think a lot of people get this, but the Flying-type is about more than just flight; it's the element of air in general too (hence attacks like Air Slash & Aeroblast). Sylveon doesn't need to fly to be Flying-typed, only to have wind-based powers.
I wasn't discussing what GF thinks of the situation, only whether or not I think there should be a new type based on the remaining potential for one. Tbh, regaring GF's wishes, I doubt that they'll ever bring a new type in again; Dark & Steel were only brought in to fix Psychic, so in lieu of some glaring flaw like that (which there isn't), I doubt they'd bring another in after all this time.
You may doubt it but that doesn't mean it can't or it won't happen. My point was that it's not up to you or any of us to decide whether new types will be introduced or not. For whatever reasons, GF may decide to create more types or not.

Sylveon looks like a flying type to me, no wings or clouds but neither has Gyarados. And the it
looks really light so. But will this be the only eeveelution, the always come with more than one, but they could just keep it as it is now.
But I am now expection a rock type if it is indeed a flying type.
Edit: I also could see normal/flying happening, thus introducing two new eeveelution types normal and flying.
File:Tennin (Japanese angel).jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Pokemon that already can fly without wings. We have categorised them as 1) Eastern Dragons that can float due to mystical powers. (like Gyarados). 2) psychic powers of levitation like Mew. 3) Legendary Pokemon that is just that powerful that they can float. (like Landorus) 4) Rocket engines. just to be more broad ability to use fly(Genesect) File:649Genesect BW anime 3.png - Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia) There is no other categories.
Now to place Sylveon in one of this category it would have to be 2) psychic powers of levitation like Mew. 3) Legendary Pokemon that is just that powerful that they can float. Finally by making thus 2 & 3 much more common they would have succeeded in opening pandora's box. Thus enable new type of flying pokemon that do not visually look able to fly.
