Chapter 111: Bug Baton Pass Tactic
In the end, Qingyu agreed to Cynthia's commission.
And the "Bug-type Pokémon tactics" she proposed, without thinking, he knew it must have something to do with Sinnoh Elite Four Aaron.
Among the nine major regions currently known, Aaron is the only Bug-type Elite Four, and most of the Bug-type Gyms in other regions also appear as the first assessment Gym.
The reason is that the Bug type is indeed weak overall.
In Qingyu's view, every type in the Pokémon world has its own distinct advantages and disadvantages.
The advantages of the Bug type are the most obvious: breeding is very labor-saving, basically training for a while can quickly evolve to the final form, and obtain good immediate combat power.
And the price of this advantage is...
Besides the Bug type itself having extremely poor hitting ability and being countered by common types, making it difficult to defend, the average base stat of Bug Pokémon is also the lowest among all types.
Evolving early is not entirely an advantage.
As for moves, the Bug type actually has many good moves such as Quiver Dance, Rage Powder, etc., which balance the problem of their insufficient strength to a certain extent.
But generally speaking, it is not Bug-type Pokémon that carry forward these moves.
For example, U-turn, which has a very high appearance rate in both single and double battles in the previous life, the spokesperson is undoubtedly the "Bug King" Landorus, followed by a certain universe's first shell-breaking Pokémon...
There are so many Pokémon that can use U-turn, but the Bug type itself has no advantage. ===== CHAPTER 113 =====
