What if Pokémon had an Earth Type?
What if Pokemon didn’t have Rock and Ground type, but just an Earth type?

#Pokemon
oh hey look at all those cool new products as part of the MandJTV holiday drop https://mandjtvmerch.com/ 👀
I’m here and I hate drowzee
Edit: video is so good you added Wolfey
I would buy them it If i wasn’t broke 😭
Tell AirUp to come to Brazil so I can buy it
I’d love to see a video of “What if Flying and Bird were separate types?”
If this could be a series, definitely would be interesting to combine psychic and fairy into a magic type
agreed, blow this up
Agreed!!!
Also ghost and dark combining into evil type that would also be cool
True, that would be great
Petition signed, I like this
Also: Diamonds are considered the hardest mineral, not for their durability, but for how difficult it is to scratch them. That’s what Hardness means in terms of mineral stats.
See, I’m a fan of both Michael and Wolfe, for different reasons, and obviously because they’re vastly different content creators, and tend to focus on different aspects of the franchise and fandom.
So to see them collaborate is literally something I never dreamt of, but it’s now become something I wished I dreamt of. Seriously hoping that we get to see more of these collaborations, because honestly, I feel like collab videos like these are easily the best representation of the fandom as a whole.
I LOVE that you mention that grass type should just be just the plant type, because actually in Spain’s Spanish it is categorised as such in the type chart, which always made more sense to me than calling it: “tipo hierba” (grass type in Spanish)
Ngl I always thought it was weird how not only they chose a specific plant to name the type after and not calling it just just the plant type. Makes it seem like every Pokémon in the type is just based off of grass lol
Same for in Colombia. Tipo planta is much better than hierba/pasto. Sadly, we still have steel “acero” instead of metal (same writing in both languages)
@DiamondDraws Yeah, that’s my problem exactly. Maybe it made sense in gen 1 when most grass types where actually based off on types of grass and flowers (and fungi for some reason) but now that we also have Pokémon based on trees, fruits and even leaves and paper, it should just be called the plant type.
tipo hierba technically would be weed type, but yeah planta sounds better than pasto
Same for France – In French, Grass Type becomes Type Plante
I feel like Flying should be split between itself and Wind. Then you can have a more physical-based Flying for winged or bird-like Pokemon (Crobat, Dodrio, Tropius) and attacks (Drill Peck, Wing Attack) and the more special-based Wind for those that don’t FLY per se but instead manipulate air for mobility (Drifblim, Tornadus, Hoppip) and attacks (Air Cutter, Hurricane)
Tornadus would become a Wind/Flying type.
Elements have always been varied between different games and shows. I like how unique Pokémon types are, even if some names don’t make sense (steel).
How are they different apart from pokemon?
@Magan Hassan Wdym?
@Regeor your 1st sentence I wanted you to elaborate further with examples 🤷♂️
@Magan Hassan Like sometimes there’s a lightning element, wind element, nature, energy, light, magic, tech or earth. Pokémon has got a unique collection of Types.
In the TCG, Grass is Plant and Steel is Metal, so it would make sense for those to be the official names because they make more sense than Grass and Steel
Devision of rocks and ground in pokemon is what I really like. Because they are both so different even if they come from earth. Same with Ice and Water.
I honestly think you could do a further split with gemstones, rock is weak against steel but diamonds are treated as part of the type and steel has no impact on them
I get that
@TheBTNah that would just create more chaos. And there aren’t enough “gem” type candidates to justify it’s beieng a type. And on the top of that: rock would loose a ton of special moves.
@TheBT If you’re going purely by composition, steel should also be considered a rock or ground, since its from where they come from.
@Vívio CA2 Nah, Steel has gone through a non natural process to be created.
I personally think it will be cooler if both Giovanni and Brock were earth type leaders, it would both invoke the feeling of coming full circle and it would also show you how far you came since defeating Brock
I like that. It could be used within the anime or storylines outside of the games too.m
Like facing the ultimate rematch
Personally, I’ve always disliked the idea of merging types like Rock/Ground or Water/Ice together. True their base components are the same, but the exact themings are always different. Water represents the oceans, rain, and…well, water. Ice represents glaciers, the frozen tundra, and the chilling wind of winter. Likewise for Rock and Ground; ground may essentially just be eroded rocks, but ground essentially _is_ earth. It is the ground beneath your feet, the sand of the desert (which I should say it’s weird that Sandstorm is a Rock-Type move, when moves like Sand Tomb are Ground-type), and the mud of mirelands and quagmire. Rock is mountains, caves, the stone that comprises human tools. Rock is solid and unmoving, while ground is where seeds are sown. It just feels wrong to attempt to combine them and their themes
then you would like the idea of splitting flying type
