Pokemon recently added a 19th Type - the Stellar type - and players thought it would take over the game. But somehow, Stellar is one of the worst types - here's how it happened.

Ultimately its them trying to reinvent the Gigantimax hype which is just them copy-pasting Mega evolutions into Dynamax. Where even that goes as far to have some `special` dynamax moves and/or animations tied to them to add to the fluff bait when they either are gonna be wastefully stupid on asset recycling by getting rid of it by the next mainline game or just use it as a `testing grounds` to shove it back in later when they get to a certain remake and call it an alternate reality, just like how ORAS got mega evolutions because it was a different place from R/S to further get away with the whole rainbow rocket gag in US/UM. Im very sure plenty of people are just sick and tired of them constantly axing previous mechanics that may of been present for even less then a year for some of them, even having way too many pokemon that had to bank on the gimmick including older pokemon to boost them into relevanacy and constantly force players to abandon previous team comps, where they arent even hiding the fact they will drastically buff/nerf abilities/moves/pokemon each generation like its a MOBA, which further takes away the appeal of childhood favorites. At this point, Pokemon is the same as Yugioh in more ways then one, they try to huck in new gimmicks in so often, they get lazier with it that they ignore previous balancing reasons and break the game with the stuff they originally were against adding in. Thought since Pokemon would of likely hard-capped only having one specific gimmick avail to a player at a time if they actually LEFT the older gimmicks in, instead of removing them each version. It would of then result in players figuring out exploits with older gimmicks and newer pokemon that could ruin the game, especially the competitive scene when someone could take a particular pokemon, use a newer gimmick and then it turns them into a unstoppable beast that just sweeps everything. At this point, Pokemon just needs to `reboot` into a Classic generation where no more special state gimmicks are added in (basically would be like Gen 1 thru 4 for the most part) and kept vanilla and then have a different sub-generation where that one has all the gimmicks and just have it where the older gimmicks return via post-game completion to let the competitive players have freaking fun, just like how alot of the hand-held console games handled it with stuff like battle frontier and what not.

Exactly - Stellar "type" isn't really Pokemon's newest type in the way the title and thumbnail imply, just a random gimmicky thing for the funzies, and it says that it's a "Tera Type" which means that it's only a type found in terastalization.

I just clicked to see what the type was and I'm not even disappointed anymore. The games fell off after gen 7, pokemon go is going down the drain, the original anime ended and it's clear the series is officially past its prime. It's sad to see as a former fan but at least Palworld opened the way for new entries in the genre and it's only a matter of time before something that can actually compete with pokemon releases.

@@artur6912 megas could easily have been made available for all mons anyway by making a "generic" mega stone that gives a flat 20+ stat boost except HP and changes nothing else mechanically. Visually, it could have the Totem aura to show it changed and it would take your mega slot. That, and since GF was inevitably going to get to the point where it's not feasible to include every single mon, they could easily shuffle around what megas are actually available every gen as well. The generic stone would of course be a constant so GF doesn't necessarily need to give a mon a mega, but still let it participate and leave room for a possible true mega in the future. A true mega would be the more drastic and "optimized" form while the generic stone is more of a stat pump to help out mons who are _almost_ good or need that small nudge to be usable. That, and it could actually be more helpful than their actual megas. Heck, Mega Chomp was worse than normal chomp because of the speed drop, so the generic stone would have a niche.

I think that Ditto works well for it. The problem with picking a tera type for a ditto is that you don't know what pokemon you are going to become until you switch out the ditto, so your prediction of a type could go to waste due to it either not having a move that matches your offensive tera type or being a better type combo than your tera. Ditto also doesn't have alot of hp so it won't always last as long as you may want. With the stellar type, you don't have to mess up your typing, and you can get in a few really strong hits before fainting. Keep in mind I am not an expert in Pokemon, especially competitively, so if you can prove me wrong, do it.

The problem there is that dittos only ever good when restricted pokemon are on the field, as any other pokemon is usually better brought yourself, and only ever if there's only 1 restricted pokemon allowed. Otherwise, you're giving up 25% of your team for a gimmick any battle, and 1/6th of your team in general, which could be spent on a pokemon you can pivot in to the main team to deal with an actual problem way easier. Dittos a gimmick. And doubling down on that is suicidal.

Worth noting, Stellar form Terapagos is not a Stellar type; it's still considered a Normal type that is Terastalized into Stellar. Funnily enough, because the type of Tera Starstorm changes, this actually means that it loses the STAB boost and gets slightly weaker, which is why on Showdown you sometimes see Terapagos running moves like Tri Attack alongside or instead of it.

Fairy isn't broken OP nor was it a disaster... it was a much needed check against Dragon type, which absurdly dominated multiple gens. Just like they introduced Dark to balance out psychic, something was needed to balance out dragon. The *actual* issue is Steel is such a overbearing defensive powerhouse, that every team wants at least one steel critter, which in turn forces you to have a fire or rock to battle it, and suddenly your slots are minimized and you just don't have room to put in anything poison to deal with fairies. There's no reason to put a poison critter just to fight fairy when it's going to get hard blocked by steel.

@saltator8565 dunno what you mean "less charismatic" in this context And like I did say they probably ditch Tera in gen 10, because they cant help themselves but make something new that's inevitably worse than the prior gimmick. But they left room to be able to bring it back at some point if they want. Unlike Dynamax they specifically wrote in the region lore to only be possible in galar as it deserves. And quite frankly Terastal has been the only good new gimmick they've made since Megas so it getting replaced by something god awful most likely will be depressing for sure

I mean, this really is nothing special. Hell, the move Burn Up was more interesting than this new type. During the US/UM era, someone once tried to skill swap a burn up Arcanine with wonder guard in a double battle. The only problem with that is that it takes too many turns and one too many switch outs to pull off, making it easy to foil.

A problem with stellar that most people overlook is that the boost for non-stab moves is just not enough to make it worth staying the same type. Ogerpon’s masks give it a 20% boost to all of its moves with no need for Tera, leaving other Pokémon to swap to a different type if they need to survive a strong move.

In competitive, it doesn't do much. When doing raids, it works differently since it's damage boosts are unlimited, allowing Pokémon with coverage to use it at will. You could also use a Pokémon with Contrary in these raids to use Stellar Tera Blast, where you'll constantly put out guaranteed super effective damage no matter what whilst buffing your own attack. But even from there, it all feels kind of underwhelming. My two proposed changes are: 1. Stellar boosts do not run out, but you need to alternate between types. If you used Flamethrower, you will not get a boost on Fire-type attacks until you use an attack of a different types. OR 2. Stellar overrides defensive properties, effectively removing both your resistances and weaknesses.

one slight counterpoint here is that the Dragon type itself wasn't what was powerful, it was the pokemon that happened to be Dragon type. for a long time (gen 5 was the first point where they started to move away from this but it really increased once we hit gen 6, by which point Fairy type had already been added) Dragon type was basically reserved only for pseudo-legendary and legendary pokemon (from gen 1 to gen 5 the only dragon type pokemon that weren't legendary or pseudo-legendary were Kingdra (gen 2), Vibrava, Flygon and Altaria (gen 3), Axew, Fraxure, Haxorus, and Druddigon (gen 5). 8 pokemon split between 5 evolution trees), pokemon which naturally tend to be on the more powerful side of things. offensively Dragon type has always been pathetic. it's only strong against other Dragons, it's resisted by Steel, and since Fairy's introduction it's had no effect on Fairies. defensively it wasn't exactly a type to write home about either. 2 weaknesses (itself and ice), 4 resistances (fire, water, grass, and electric), 0 immunities. Dragon type was nothing special, it was just slapped onto a lot of very special pokemon, even now it's still primarily slapped onto naturally stronger Pokemon that would probably do just fine without it (one could even argue that since Fairy's introduction many of those strong Pokemon would be better off without the Dragon typing).

Dragon was a powerful type because it had great defensive utility (similar to normal), but also because many of the best pokemon in the game were dragons at the time.

When an Expert Belt user does this, they often use any and all of their coverage moves and prefer using super effective moves over STAB moves. This means they’ll get to make good use of Tera Stellar’s weaker boosts on all of their moves. Since most teams are diverse, most or all of their coverage options will have a target when doing this. This seems to be the best case scenario for using Tera Stellar aside from possible Terapogos usage.

That's why I see the Stellar-type as a catalyst type to the 18 regular types compared to Shadow-type not being an actual type on paper but yet the possible antithesis to Stellar due to Shadow moves being super effective to every other type but is resisted by Shadow Pokemon. Edit: HOLY HECK! 100 likes! Wow...thanks guys. 😳

I didn't find anyone else bringing this suggestion up, regarding the "fixing Stellar" segment, but I was wondering: why not have it so Tera-Stellar boosts every move by 25%, and _without_ losing the Stellar boost after using that move type? That was the big sticking point with it, right: that the boost was gone after using the attack-and that boost wasn't even as good as traditional Tera, anyway? Couldn't maintaining that minor boost during the Tera make it a more considerable option? For one, it would decomplicate/declutter the mechanic a little. There's less rules around it to deal with, basically. It's effectively solidifying Stellar's presentation as a "jack of all trades, master of none" type, with the caveat of Stellar being super-effective against Tera. Stellar is basically all the types, but its lack of specialization means it won't be as impactful as the rest of the types-that would be an easy enough explanation for players to grasp and remember. It's also why I suggest buffing the non-STABs to a non-ephemeral 25%, because that's simple enough to explain, too-that it boosts every type, but only _half_ as well as other Tera types. Plus, it gets rid of the rule stating "every attack type gets buffed, but after you use a non-Stellar attack in Stellar mode, that type loses the boost." I honestly think that rule needlessly complicates the Stellar type. This then means Terapagos won't be the only one to maintain the non-STAB boosts in Tera mode, which is another rule gone-basically, streamlining the Stellar mechanic. Next, giving Tera-Stellar a persistent half-boost means certain players might seriously consider it for offense if they care more about making _all_ of a Pokémon's moves better, rather than focusing on one attack type being the strongest. It's kind of like the Expert Belt or the Wise Glasses in that way: their effects are nowhere near as powerful as Choice Band/Specs, but they're still available for any player running a Pokémon with a varied spread of attack types, that cares more about just having somewhat better attacks all around, without worrying about being locked into one option. So, in terms of offense, Stellar would not be a particularly strong type, but it now becomes a choice for players who like keeping their options open-it fits their play style, basically.

Well yeah pretty reasonable, or honestly you can go the other way and make the values extreme so it's a hail Mary one use type of effect. Not to the level z moves were, but enough for it to at least be anti terra tech (which it kind of if you squint hard enough already is)
@neoqwerty
@neoqwerty 3 ай бұрын
Another possibility would be to keep the messy "loses the stellar boost when used in Stellar mode", but to TRANSFER IT to defense: you lose the offense of that specific type, but you gain defense on said type in exchange. It'd mechanically work similar to Kecleon's Color Change or the Porygon line's Conversion(2), with the extra type boost transferring from attack to defense when you attack with it. You'd still lose the attack boost, but gain something to make up for the loss. Possibly could also have like... being hit by a type you have that's "stellar-defended" flipping it back to the attack boost instead of the defense one, which would make multi-hit attacks get through stellar-boosted defenses, since the first hit triggers the swap, and you get un-defended damage for the rest of the chain. (though that part would definitely need more finagling)

@@neoqwerty Super late but Yeah. However then top tier get more annoying, since they get a defense boost on top of blowing you back out if they played right Not to mention the typing would make super effective moves impossible on said mon. Plus getting the right type of moves to actually use said defensive option is a headache to luck dependent at the worst. Would lead to wackier combos, but overall not significant enough i don't think.

On the "I don't know how to convey that more clearly" point surrounding tera and STAB boosts, this was probably something for the editing room. A bar to represent how much power a move has, add on a bar 50% longer to show STAB, and another bar to show the tera boost. Just having text on screen saying the thing you're having trouble conveying isn't helping you. Show it visually.

it really feels like newer pokemon games, along with the newest mechanics, are design specifically to be as shiny and colorful as possible to distract the player away from the fact that every other visual aspect won't get much better than this in the near future, every 3d pokemon game that isn't a remake follows this trend. it's crazy how pokemon, one of the biggest nintendo series out there, isn't capable of using any of the console's strengths. the switch is capable of a lot more than this.

Stellar's at least a great type for dedicated Tera Raid battlers like myself; keeping both of your types when you terastalize is really helpful for certain battles (e.g. Stellar Sap Sipper Sawsbuck being immune to all of Trevenant's raid attacks, Stellar Krookodile walling Gothitelle, Stellar Corviknight keeping its ground immunity, etc.), and it's nice to use on 'mons you only get once in a game, like the Loyal Three or the newest Paradox 'mons. Suppose it also helps that the boosts last for the entire duration of the raid and not just once-per battle; the more I think about it, the more it seems like Stellar's moreso meant for coop raiders than competitive PvP-ers.

Idk enough on how balancing works for the competitive scene or whatever but I think it would make sense if, defensively speaking, your 'mon could resist one type of move once like how it gains a boost for a type of move it hasn't used yet. I think it would tie back to how the type originated from Terapagos what with its tera shell and all
