Eh... Wing Attack again.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Um, no. There's no possible way it could be fair. Barky's a Dark type, Twister's a Psychic type. Jiji's an Electric type, Splash is a Water type and Twister's an Electric type. The only way you wouldn't have an advantage is if Splash were to fight Barky and, well, you wouldn't stand a chance.

Well, never mind then! Opal said that Twister's a pure Flying type, (Which is strange because all other Pokemon that seem like they should be pure Flying types are part Normal...) In which case YOU'RE ON! Twister vs. Barky is the only fair match up... WING ATTACK!
...And yes, according to the Ninteno Power guide to Fire Red and Leaf Green, Psychic's not very effective on Steel. Nothing is... except of course Fire, Fighting, and Ground, which are super effective, and Water and Electric, which do normal damage. Everything else is not ver effective. And then Poison doesn't do anything at all. And as far as my battle goes, yes, Flying does normal damage to Flying.

Heh heh... I already know what Twister's evolved form will look like. I made the <a href='http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v508/ ... liotto.png' target='_blank'>sprite</a>, after all. So unless Opal's messed with it since then... I mean, uh, pay no attention to the potential spoiler-containing link I may have posted!
