TimTim Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Many trainers often assume any mons with four times weaknesses to something are trashes, however i disagree(get that?), with adequate supports, these mons can be a formiable threat. So, i would like to know if there are any 4 times weaknesses mons that make it into your favourite list. These are my favourite 4x weaknesses mons: Volcarona Aurorus Vivillon Rhydon Shiftry Ferroseed each for different reasons whether they have great supporting or setting up, or that they have a great aesthetic in designs and the inspiration behind their design.

Arkhi Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 4x weakness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMoonIceCream Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 4x weakness? Is that the GG background? I like using whimsicott, it's very useful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dead account Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Torterra is a pretty good pokemon in Reborn and Rejuvenation because of its bulk and the fact that it gets Earthquake via level up, which makes Torterra invaluable for dealing with or taking advantage of a number of fields. Ferrothorn is a pretty good physical wall that gets Iron Barbs as an ability. Abomasnow... I honestly don't really know why I like this one. I guess it was because this pokemon was pretty unique at the time and I have a fondness for unique typings. Salamence - this will always be my favourite dragon. Don't care what anyone says. Magnezone is another one I'm not too sure about. I just like it. Aggron is just bloody badass. Yanmega is one of the few Bug types I genuinely like. I'm not sure I've mentioned all my favourites, but here you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mde2001 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I love Whimsicott. It is super cute and really helpful. Other than that Altaria is great at well. I like lots of 4x weakness mons actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drymus Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I like Heracross, Forretress, and Charizard. Just cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xiri Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Aurorus and Altaria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RasenShot Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I find the lack of a Gyarados mention disturbing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacobliterator Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Volcarona, Forretress, Probopass, Yanmega and the almighty Scizor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caradius Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Weavile and Garchomp. Edited October 30, 2015 by Caradius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimvader42 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Well I don't personally think you're supposed to bring your mon against its x4 weakness in battle, so they are as fine as any other. Except talonflame. Anyways, volcarona and the bug/flying ones (scyther, vivillon, etc.) are mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Volcarona is my favorite, and I also like Scrafty, Heracross, Hydreigon and quite a few others. And what about theoretical mons with unseen type combos which have new x4 weaknesses? For one, I'd like to see a Poison/Fire mon (Smogon's CAP has one I believe) or a Fairy/Ice one (which would be a mon similar to Froslass or Jynx... maybe a Mega of one of them?)

wytch_doctr Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Volcarona is one of my fave mons, recently. Heracross was a long time favorite cause it's just pure power. and RAWRCHOMP <3 Honorable mentions: Aurorus, Charizard, Yanmega and Weavile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narckarth Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 these are my favourites and "reasons" why Talonflame- Your too slow Volcarona- Dance like nobody is watching Charizard- char is hard Aggron- mecha godzilla Aurorus- ooooh pretty Bisharp- checkmate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumble Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Aurorus is cool and all, but Weavile is my favorite Pokemon~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimvader42 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 And what about theoretical mons with unseen type combos which have new x4 weaknesses? All the unseen type combos with a (or multiple) x4 weaknesses are: normal/dark (x4 weak to fighting) normal/ice (x4 weak to fighting) normal/rock (x4 weak to fighting) normal/steel (x4 weak to fighting) fire/ice (x4 weak to rock) fire/poison (x4 weak to ground) electric/poison (x4 weak to ground) electric/rock (x4 weak to ground) ice/bug (x4 weak to fire and rock) ice/steel (x4 weak to fighting and fire) ice/fairy (x4 weak to steel) fighting/dragon (x4 weak to fairy) poison/rock (x4 weak to ground) poison/steel (x4 weak to ground) And despite hoopa exists, ghost/psychic (x4 weak to ghost and dark) That's all of them, I think. All of them are very intriguing. I always wondered what a steel/ice could be like. Also, I just remembered Toxicroak is x4 times weak to psychic, and is also one of my fav fighting types, so yet another one for my list. Hydreigon and scrafty too, you poor fairy-allergic things, I love you two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zx_rider Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Swarpert, Dragonite and Salamence obviously xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AeroWraith Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Gliscor- my go to defensive wall Tyranitar- is a beast Bisharp- Awesome sweeper, also love defiant Volcarona- One of my favorite bugs Heracross- same reason for Volcarona Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bessi Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 the almighty gyarados!!!! it can own even its weakness!!! ps:aside of the beast,ferrothorn and scizor are very good.only fire is a threat to them(ferrothorn can live even to a powerful fighting move) and they have a ton of resistances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Parasect looks at this topic and raises a 5x weakness to Fire. On the real though: Scizor, Gyarados, Bisharp, VilevilevileWeavile, Ferrothorn, Celebi... There's actually a lot of great pokémons with 4x weakness. Neat~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZEL Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Gotta say Gastrodon, and in the same vein, Swampert, Quagsire and Seismitoad. I just love having a water type that doesn't get screwed over by electric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheep Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Heracross and Tyranitar for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suyoi Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Parasect! I used Parasect in my SS run through, and even with its 5x weakness to fire and 4x weakness to flying, it still put in work. Never really used one prior to that on a dedicated team rotation. Only exception was when I trained one for my Pokemon Stadium. Gave it dig so it could actually tank the Surfing Pikachu.
