Well, it could be since there were no other metal pokemon in Kanto the decided to not name magnimite secound type.

That would make sense...except that in Red/Blue magnimite doesn't act like it's a half steel type (ie. no resistence to normal type attacks, etc).

It....decided to be nice and let them have normal hits?

This week's question: How does fire pokemon store fire in them (without burning themselves and metling, and etc)?

Post by **Neo Zanther** » Wed Apr 11, 2007 9:44 am

Easy, same way Dragons do. They have a flame sac that's fire resistant inside of them. They store gas in it and then have something ignite the gas to cause fire. They have thick walls in thier throts (sp I know) so that it doesn't cause them to burn on the inside. And for being warm to the touch, that's just their nature :)

I'll agree with Neo.

Immediately after they hatch, all fire Pokemon are dragged down to hell and infused with demons. Then the aliens come and...

I admit I'm having way too much fun with this.

radiation affected all ancesters of all fire pokemon causing them to breathe fire each time they eat alot of habeneros and the reaction became a normal process minus the peppers as the fire pokemon developed.

So what about normal pokemon that can learn flamethrower. You saying they also have this fire pouch?

THEY'RE ALL ATTACKED BY DEMON ALIENS FROM HELL TOO! *Spasm* *Mayonnaise'd*

This week's question; Why doesn't splash deal damage/why did they create that move?

Post by **King of Katamari** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 3:09 pm

Maybehaps (ooh, new word) it was a test move?

Post by **Silver** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 3:46 pm

So that if you bought a Magikarp from the guy in the Pokemon Center by Mt. Moon it would be a complete rip-off and you'd feel stupid.

Er, I mean...

THE ALIENS PUT A CURSE ON HIM! Now Magikarp everywhere are doomed to be completely worthless until they reach a high enough level to over power the alien magic and learn Tackle!

Yes, Aliens have magic! Shut up!

It's quite simple, really. So that, even if you do get tackle (or use absorb alot with hoppips, who also get it), after running out of PP for tackle (or absorb), it still has to flop around for 20 turns doing nothing before it can actually hurt their opponents again with struggle.

well,splash does deal 5 damage in PMD1,but, I think they made it to annoy the players and be evil at the same time. when G/S/C came out,they felt bad and added attacks(they didn't want people to challenge them and beat them with a Gyarados).
