Gardeford: /* Bug move before gen 4 */ new section

== Steel type ==

Hay, wiat. What about the Effect Spore ability? Can't ''that'' poison the steel? Posted by the '''[[User:Optimus35|<sc>Θρtιmαtum♏</sc>]][[User talk:Ph34r4ever|Talk]]|[[User:Optimus35/sig/Pikachu|Links]]''10:39 25 May 2008'''''
:If its not a posoin type move it should be able to poison steel pokemon--[[User:DCM|DCM]][[User talk:DCM|((Shut the **** up]][[Special:Contributions/DCM|Spy on My Edits))]]
::Steel type Pokémon can not be poisoned. {{unsigned|MathijsP}}

:::Actually, {{m|Twineedle}} has been known to poison {{t|Steel}}-types, at least in [[Generation II]] (although the chances it was changed for later generations is highly unlikely...). Being a {{t|Bug}}-type move, it's the only known move that can inflict poison anywhere that isn't of the {{t|Poison}}-type (which Steel is immune to), hence it can poison a Steel-type. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 18:11, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
::::The questions is if it still poisons, or if steel types are now immune. Also, Poison Point or something like that inflicts poison as an ability. I should make a multi-hit and Twineedle test team (when I get the time) to check some things that are uncertain. [[User:Gywall|Gywall]] 18:40, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

== Should correct ==

In this page in the table from gen2 onward it said that poison type deal 1/2 damage to bug type.It is wrong should we correct it?[[User:Meearaimeng|Meearaimeng]] 13:21, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
Oh I am a bit confuse dont worry about this it is nothing><.[[User:Meearaimeng|Meearaimeng]] 13:24, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

== "Generation V introduced Bug-type Pokémon with base stat totals over 500" ==

Yanmega's base stat total of 515 would like to disagree with that. [[User:Shiramu Kuromu|Shiramu Kuromu]] 23:23, 5 February 2011 (UTC)

== Defense Column ==

Shuckle, Forretress, Crustle, Durant, Escavalier, Vespiqueen, Pinsir, Scizor, Armaldo. There are '''9''' Bug-type Pokémon with a defense stat of 100 or more, and Bug-type Pokémon have higher defense than special defense '''on average''', yet the Bug-type "Defense" column consistently focuses on how low their defense stat is; in fact, their "low defense" is the only real reason given for Bugs to be defensively-flawed, which is preposterous. Well, it does talk about Bug/Flying-types' double weakness to rock, but that's only relevant to '''19%''' of all Bug-types.

I'm honestly only an intermediate-level Pokémon player, so I'm not sure if I'm missing something here, but it seems as though the "Defense" portion of the Bug-type page is seriously outdated, to the point of blatantly irrelevant information. Someone with more experience/knowledge then me really needs to ''completely rewrite this column'', and soon.

== Signal Beam not on move list ==

I went through the list of moves, and [[Signal Beam]] was not on there. [[User:Zarthga|Zarthga]] 08:42, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
:Looks like it was missed when the list was changed. Fixed now. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 09:50, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

== Psychic-types that take neutral damage from Bug-type moves are pretty rare ==

I removed the "(which are fairly common)" qualifier at the end of that part in the Offense section. Though six types resist Bug (Flying, Ghost, Fire, Steel, Poison, and Fighting), there are only a few Psychic-type Pokémon that take neutral damage from Bug-type moves: Lugia, Xatu, Sigilyph, Swoobat, Victini, Zen Mode Darmanitan, Metagross, Bronzong, Jirachi, Gallade and Medicham. Counting the pre-evolved types there are 17 total (Natu, Woobat, Beldum, Metang, Bronzor and Meditite), which is exactly ¼ of the 68 total Psychic-type Pokémon.

And of this 17, only 3-5 of them can fairly be considered common no matter what mode of play is being considered: Metagross, Bronzong, Gallade, and Medicham and Jirachi in order of relative relevance. While competitive standard play now allows Jirachi, no official Nintendo format or in-game mode has, which goes as well for Victini and especially Lugia. NFE Pokémon are by default not common, Zen Mode Darmanitan is only possible with a less-than-ideal HP percentage (especially for a slow Fire-type weak to {{m|Stealth Rock}}) and Xatu/Sigilyph/Swoobat are all rather uncommon in any mode of play.

== Problem ==
Look at here:
[[File:B2W2 type chart.png|thumb]]
X-Immunity
Triangle- Resistant
O-Super Effective

I took the scan from the Pokémon Magazine about BW2, it looks like in the new games are going to have a possible change on the type chart, I don't know if it is a typo or if it's real, but if so it would change everything: Sableye and Spiritomb would lose their so-called immunity to all the types, the bug-type would lose its status as the weakest type, i'm not sure, but if it is real we must be alert to quickly cover this entries.

PS.:Sorry for my bad english, I speak Portuguese. --[[User:Igor Castro Chucre|Igor ]] ([[User talk:Igor Castro Chucre|talk]]) 14:42, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
:We know. We're waiting for the games to come out first. It could always be a typo. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 14:45, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

== Wormadam ==

The bug type number and percentages of pokemon is kind of silly. It has variables to account for multiple forms of wormadam, which I have two problems with:
1) If wormadam's additional forms are considered separate pokemon for how many bug types there are, then they should also be considered separate pokemon for the total of pokemon there are, reducing their alternate percentage 10% even.
2) If wormadamn's additional forms are counted on some merit other than their pokedex number (in this case, I would wager it's because of type combinations) Then pokemon that have alternate forms that fit this criteria, namely Rotom, should be counted in "total pokemon", dropping the percentage further (especially if it merely becomes forms with alternate movesets).

Basically, the line with wormadam is either unnecessary, or not given enough attention. [[User:TheHateHat|TheHateHat]] ([[User talk:TheHateHat|talk]]) 21:35, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

== Overall ==
I changed the overall for the {{type|bug}} for the following reasons: HP - 3642 / 65 = 56.03 SpAtk - 3508 / 65 = 53.969 ~ 53.97 Total - 24157 / 65 = 371.646 ~ 371.65 — [[User:Reshi643|Reshi643]] ([[User talk:Reshi643|talk]]) 18:52, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

== protection ==

it isn't protected because the mods forgot to. simple as that. [[User:0danmaster0|0danmaster0]] ([[User talk:0danmaster0|talk]]) 09:22, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

== Offense ==

It still mentions Bug's weakness against '''six''' types rather than seven. [[User:EnosShayrem|Enos]][[Shaymin (Pokémon)|Shay]][[Kyurem (Pokémon)|rem]][[User_talk:EnosShayrem|Talk]] 23:33, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
:Fixed. [[User:Masatoshi|Masatoshi]][[User_talk:Masatoshi|''talk'']] 23:38, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

== Bug move before gen 4 ==

the section saying about how only [insert moves] bug moves were over 25 bp before gen 4 seems unneeded to me. That was also over half of all offensive bug moves at the time. you'd be better off saying it was hard to use them offensively at all or pointing out that there weren't a lot of moves in general.

{{types}}
The '''Bug type''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|むしタイプ|Mushi Taipu}}''' ''Insect type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Bug-type Pokémon are [[Bugsy]] of [[Azalea Town]], {{EF|Aaron}} of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], [[Burgh]] of [[Castelia City]], and [[Viola]] of [[Santalune City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Bug-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==
Bug {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are usually amongst the first Pokémon types a Trainer can find in the wild, with the exception of Pokémon Black and White. They generally [[evolution|evolve]] at very early levels compared to most other Pokémon. The type varies from strong to weak. Depending on the Bug Pokémon, they can prove to be a nuisance with stat altering moves or hard hitting attacks such as {{m|Megahorn}}, {{m|X-Scissor}}, {{m|Signal Beam}} and {{m|Bug Buzz}}. There is only one Legendary Bug-type Pokémon, {{p|Genesect}}.

===Offense===
Offensively, they are somewhat flawed. They are effective against {{t|Psychic}} and {{t|Dark}} types, which are two types common in most teams; but their strength against the very common {{t|Grass}} type is reduced by the common Grass/Poison typing.

In the [[Generation I]] games, there were only three Bug-type moves ({{m|Leech Life}}, {{m|Twineedle}}, and {{m|Pin Missile}}); none of which were very powerful. Since then, the range (and average base power) of Bug-type moves has increased. However, since seven types resist Bug-type attacks, Bug-type attacks still don't deal a lot of damage to many types. The fact that they are resisted by Poison—a popular defensive type—causes further problems (though many Poison types also have a subtype that is weak to Bug—commonly Grass—which helps alleviate this issue). Furthermore, their advantage over Psychic types is compromised by the relatively common typing of Bug/Poison types; Psychic types with Bug-resistant types; and the high speed, special attack and wide movepools that many Psychic types have.
Despite these offensive flaws, the Bug type pairs effectively with {{t|Water}} and {{t|Ice}}.

===Defense===
Defensively, Bug types are still flawed, because of their low {{stat|Defense}} and the fact that there are many that are part {{t|Flying}}, multiplying their weakness to {{t|Rock}}. In this way their resistance to {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Fighting}}, the two most effective types (in terms of number of type advantages), are of little use seeing as many Pokémon of both types can learn Rock moves.
Dual-type Bug/Flying and Bug/{{t|Poison}} Pokémon have an outstanding double resistance to {{t|Fighting}}, which can make up for their low {{stat|Defense}}. They also have a double resistance to common {{t|Grass}} moves, meaning they would take very little damage from powerful moves such as {{m|Giga Drain}}, {{m|Energy Ball}}, or {{m|Petal Dance}}.

The Bug/Steel Pokémon prove particularly effective as they only have {{t|Fire|one}} weakness (although it's a double weakness) and eight resistances (including {{t|Poison|one}} immunity).

===Contest properties===
When used in [[Contest]]s, Bug-type moves do not favor one [[Contest category]].

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 69 Bug-type Pokémon or 9.4% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 6th most common type.

==Trivia==
* Generation V introduced the most Bug-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 18, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Bug-type Pokémon, with three.
* Generation IV introduced the most Bug-type moves of any Generation, with seven, and Generations II and III introduced the fewest Bug-type moves, with three.
* Statistically, the Bug type is the weakest; among the 18 elemental types, the Bug type has the lowest average base stat total (371.57). This may be a reference to the position of bugs in nature; they are small compared with other animals, and few of them are predators.
** However, Generation IV and V introduced several Bug-type Pokémon with higher base stat totals, even over 500, including one at {{p|Genesect|600}}.
* Even though {{t|Flying}} is a common secondary type among Bug-type Pokémon, the only Bug-type Pokémon that can learn the move {{m|Fly}}, {{p|Volcarona}} and {{p|Genesect}}, are not Flying types.
* Until Platinum, several Bug-type Pokémon, {{p|Shuckle}}, {{p|Kricketot}}, {{p|Burmy}}, {{p|Wormadam}}, and {{p|Combee}}, were unable to learn any Bug-type moves. Each of them is now able to learn {{m|Bug Bite}} by level, and Wormadam can learn {{m|Signal Beam}} by [[Move Tutor]].
* {{p|Larvesta}} evolves at level 59, the highest among two-stage evolutionary lines and second-highest overall, only surpassed by {{p|Zweilous}}, which evolves at level 64.
* Until Generation IV, the only Bug moves with a power above 25 were Megahorn, Signal Beam, Silver Wind, and fury cutter, which made them extremely difficult to use offensively.
* The Flying type is one of the two types most commonly paired with the Bug type (along with Poison). However there are a number of Bug types, despite being able to fly, that are not Flying types, nor have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}. These include {{p|Beedrill}}, {{p|Venomoth}}, {{p|Heracross}}, {{p|Dustox}}, {{p|Volbeat}}, {{p|Illumise}}, and {{p|Volcarona}}.
* With the exception of {{p|Whirlipede}}, all mid-evolution Bug Pokémon are based on cocoons.
* {{m|String Shot}} is the only Bug-type status move that can miss.
* The Bug type was the most common 4× weakness in [[Generation I]], with 11 Pokémon doubly weak to it, mainly due to {{t|Poison}} type having a weakness to it at the time.
* No Pokémon gains the Bug type upon evolving that did not already have it. It shares this distinction with the {{t|Normal}} type.
** Also, the Bug type is the only type to contain an evolution line consisting of a {{p|Surskit|Pokémon}} with a unique type combination that evolves into a {{p|Masquerain|Pokémon}} that lacks one.
*The Bug type is the only non-starter type to have a variation of {{a|Overgrow}}.

As far as i could tell from the signature moves page, it counted all methods of learning the move. So since sky attack was a TM in gen 1 i dont think it was moltres signature move, since 8+ other pokemon could learn it. That also makes it not work for gen 2 because of the ability to move pokemon over.

==Trivia evolution==

Are we absolutely sure about the trivia that this exolution wouldve been impossible on any other games? There was a game called kirby tilt and tumble for the gameboy color that could tell when you were holding the game upside down. So it's conceivable that the technology for an evolution from holding the game upside down could've existed in Gen 2 if not earlier. It's fine to fine to say its unique, but make sure you know for certain before saying something is impossible

==Origin?==

Karamanero could be based off of the {{wp|Kraken}}. [[User:Dialgafan1|Dialgafan1]] ([[User talk:Dialgafan1|talk]]) 15:22, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

::I agree, although, I believe that, especially based on its dark primary typing, it also may be based on the Humboldt squid in particular, also known as the Diablo rojo, which translates to "red devil".--[[User:ShinyPatch|ShinyPatch]] ([[User talk:ShinyPatch|talk]]) 20:36, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

Especially thinking that because of it's really long tentacles. It's face also kinda of looks like a Kraken. [[User:Dialgafan1|Dialgafan1]] ([[User talk:Dialgafan1|talk]]) 00:28, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

I was thinking it might be based on (the idea of) a vampire squid. It doesn't look like an actual vampire squid, but it does sort of look like a squid that was also a vampire [[User:Vienna Waltz|Vienna Waltz]] ([[User talk:Vienna Waltz|talk]]) 12:42, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

Malamar's Dark/Psychic typing and hypnotic powers remind me of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illithid Illithids] or mindflayers from Dungeons & Dragons. They are squid-headed humanoids with often purple-blue skin; they have psionic powers and can control others to do their bidding. Illithids have a history of being adapted for Japanese video games; there is a [http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Mindflayer_(Final_Fantasy) Mindflayer enemy in Final Fantasy as well.] Of course, there's no telling what it's really based on besides just a squid. It'd be cool if we could get a designer interview discussing some of the origins of these designs like was done for some Pokémon in Generation V. [[User:Iamohjay|Iamohjay]] ([[User talk:Iamohjay|talk]]) 17:47, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

Malamar could also be a Giant Squid.[[User:Robbie|Robbie]] ([[User talk:Robbie|talk]]) 22:07, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Malamar is clearly based on the "Vampire Squid" [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vampire_squid] due to hynotic lights and its ability to turn itself inside out both key features to Malmar's design.(Malamar turning upside down instead of inside out) Also I want to note that Malamar's collar resembles an "Upturned Collar" similar to an actual vampire. The Vampire Squid's nickname is "vampire squid of Hell" hence the Dark type of Malamar. {{unsigned|ProtoTurtle}}

:I'm not really seeing a very strong resemblance to the vampire squid (and that's the translation of its scientific name, not its nickname). Vampire squid are crimson in color; Malamar has no crimson on it at all. Vampire squid have distinctive blue eyes; Malamar's eyes are yellow. Vampire squid have rounded mantles, lack two longer tentacles, their tentacles are connected by membrane that forms a netlike area around the mouth, and they generally really don't look like squid at all (in fact, they're not actually true squid, nor octopi, but the only living member of their own order); Malamar is shaped very much like most true squid species. Also, Malamar turns itself upside-down, not inside-out (although "inside-out" is a misnomer--the vampire squid merely turns its arm cloak over the rest of its body). So I think it's safe to say Malamar is not based on a vampire squid, just (real) squid in general (in fact, I'd agree more with the idea that it could be inspired by Humboldt squid, which are notoriously vicious hunters and could explain the Dark typing). [[User:Lucentas|Lucentas]] ([[User talk:Lucentas|talk]]) 03:08, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Malamar, and to some extent Inkay, could be based on the amanojaku. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanojaku] The amanojaku is supposedly the demon of contrariness, which could be connected to Malamar's upside-down body structure and its Ability Contrary, as well as its signature move, Topsy-Turvy.

I think the "mar" in it's name can be a reference to the word "Mar",that means "Sea" in Spanish and Portuguese. - ''[[User:Ishlishl|Ishlishl]]''

== -MAL ==

Clearly the MAL in Malamar can more easily be related to such words as Malignant, Maleficent, Malicious. So many words, it seems quite silly to just leave the bulbapedia entry at "a combination of mal and calamari". Pedestrian, no? At the very least specify that "mal" is indeed a prefix followed by something like "from the Latin Malus, meaning bad". I mean do we really need to link what Mal stands for when it can be easily described? Calamari, ok, not everyone may know what that is. However, I have yet to see another pokemon page link to a prefix...{{unsigned|Milotic1209}}

'''Aegislash''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ギルガルド''' ''Girugarudo'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Ghost}} Pokémon.

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Doublade}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Dusk Stone}}. It is the final form of {{p|Honedge}}.

Aegislash has the ability to change forms during battle based on the moves it is using.

==Biology==
Aegislash's body is comprised of a golden sword with the blade pointing downwards. The edge of the blade is white and somewhat serrated near the tip. Its single eye, which is purple with a white, linear pupil, sits where the blade meets the hilt, where it is surrounded by black coloration. The handle is thick at its base, tapers as it progresses to the end, and is striated. Two cloth-like arms emerge from the sides of the hilt. Each arm is primarily black and ends in lavender, transitioned by a slight whorl between the two colors. It carries an ornate shield in at least one of its arms.

Aegislash is capable of {{a|Stance Change|changing its stance}} in the middle of battle, depending on what moves it uses. It carries out offensive moves in its '''Blade Forme''', in which it carries its shield in its left arm and exposes its blade, which it uses to slash its opponents. Defensive moves are performed in its '''Shield Forme''', in which it holds its shield up in front of its blade, with both of its arms crossed behind the shield.

It is said to be able to detect the innate qualities of leadership; legend has it that whoever Aegislash recognizes as a worthy leader is destined to become king. Indeed, this Pokémon has attended and served generations of kings. It is also known to use its spectral power to manipulate people and Pokémon alike. Aegislash is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|King's Shield}}.

*Aegislash, along with its {{p|Honedge|evolutionary}} {{p|Doublade|relatives}}, were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].<ref>[http://hitoshiariga.deviantart.com/art/Pocket-Monsters-XY-413536751 Pocket Monsters XY by HitoshiAriga on deviantART]</ref>

===Origin===
Aegislash appears to be based on a possessed sword and shield. Its disposition to sense an owner's potential as leaders and kings, seems to draw inspiration from the ideas of legendary swords of European legend, such as Excalibur, Durandal, and the Sword of Damocles. The fact that it is pointing downward supports the latter.

====Name origin====
Aegislash is a combination of ''{{wp|Aegis}}'' (a shield in Greek mythology) and ''slash''.

Girugarudo may be a combination of ''{{wp|Gilgamesh}}'', 斬る ''kiru'' (to slay with a blade), and ''shield'' or ''guard''.

== Burial Ground? ==

As it is revealed that the stones are actually gravestones of fallen Pokemon, would it be fair to propose adding this location to the Burial Ground template that's present on pages like [[Pokémon Tower]]? Possibly even the Monuments category? [[User:Chicobo329|Chicobo329]] ([[User talk:Chicobo329|talk]]) 21:56, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

== Colress trivia ==
"A Backpacker on this Route mentions that Colress once told him about the mysterious energy emitted by the stones there, meaning that Colress has likely visited Kalos and Route 10 at some point." How do we know that it wasn't the other way around, the Backpacker, who I would guess travels a lot as that's generally what Backpackers do, didn't go to Unova and meet Colress there? ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 22:03, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
:It's entirely feasible that the backpacker met Colress in Unova, but it'd be really odd if Colress had known about the stones and their mysterious energy if he'd never visited. --[[User:WyndFox|Wynd]] [[User talk:WyndFox|Fox]] 00:29, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

== Emolga ==

Is whoever labeled it very rare sure? i'm farming golett for light clay and out of about 30 encounters maybe 10 of them have been emolga compared to 1 golett

EDIT: same with evee and electrike, neither take more thann 2 battles to gt on average, snubble and houndour seem to be better candidates for very rare, have found one of each.
