With the total number o꧑f Pokémon starting to get uncomfortably close to a thousand, there are plenty for fans to try and remember. When it comes to all the details about a Pokémon, it gets even more complicated, with each having their own base stats, move pools, type combinationsꦕ, evolution requirements, and more.
There are quite a few Pokémon that have type combinations that are somewhat easy to forget, and that's especially true when ♊they have the Normal-type, as it's somewhat of a plain, forgettable type. Here are some Pokémon that you might not remember are actually Normal-type.
10 🦋 Litleo And 🅷Pyroar
Pyroar is a bit of a forgettable Pokémon. It's not in the Generation VIII games, hasn't seen many promos, and is mostly known for its stark gender differences. This can lend many to forget that it's actually a Nor🧸mal-type Pokémon, on top of forgetting that it exists at all.
Introduced in Generation VI, Pyroar is obviously a Fire-type because of its appearance, 🦂but, yes, it is actually a dual𒁏 Fire/Normal-type.
9 Girafarig
Introduced all the way back in Generation II, Girafarig is known for its strange reversible appearance and palindromic name (it's the same backward and forward). It's also knoཧwn to be a Psychic-type Pokémon, albeit one that doesn't see much use competitively.
However, Girafarig is actually a Psychic/Normal-type Pokémon. Interestingly, it was the only dual-type💧 Normal-type to be paired with another type besides Flying until Bibarel's introduction in Generation IV.
8 𒁏 🧸 The Jigglypuff Family
In Generation VI, Game Freak introduced the first new type in years — Fairy — bringing with it a few new Fairy-type Pokémon and converting some of the pre-existing Pokémon. One of these Pokémon was, fittingly, Clefairy and its evolutionary family, which were converted from pure Normal-types to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:pure Fairy-types.
Jigglypuff and its family were also converted, but m♍any wrongfully think they b🔜ecame pure Fairy-types as well. However, the Jigglypuff family is now Normal/Fairy-type.
7 Fletchling ♈
Every generation ꦫbrings a new regional bird Pokémon that can be caught early and evolves quickly. In Generation I, it was Pidgey; in Generation II, it was Hoothoot; and so on. One of the coolest according to many is the Fletchling li𝓀ne in Generation VI, which eventually ends in the powerful and cool-looking Fire/Flying-type Talonflame.
Since Talonflame and the middle stage, Fletchinder, are Fire/Flying-types, and Fletchling is also reddish-orange, it's easy to think Fletchling is also a Fire-type. However, it's not — it's Normal/Flying and doesn't gain the Fi🌺re-type until it evolves.
6 Alolan Rattata and Rat😼icate 𝕴
In Generation VII, some Pokémon were given new regional forms for the first time. A handful of Pokémon originally found in Kanto w❀ere given Alolan variants with new appearances and type combinations. One of the♛m was Rattata (and of course, Raticate), which sports a new bla⛎ck and beige look and the Dark-typing.
Of cou𓄧rse, Rattata and Raticate are now famously Dark-types in their Alolan forms. However, they still retained their Normal-typing, and are actually Dar🌼k/Normal-types. The same applies to Zigzagoon and Linoone in their Galarian forms.
5 ♏ He☂lioptile and Heliolisk
Another Generation 🗹VI Pokémon that joined Pyroar in having a cool elemental primary type and forgotten Normal-type alongside it is Heliolisk and its pre-evolution, Helioptile. These lizards are extremely cool Electric-types with a fascinating design c🌃oncept, resembling solar panels that harness the sun's energy.
However, it's very easy to forget that they're actually Normal-types, too. These Pokémon have the two types that are both only weak to one thing: Normal is weak only to Fighting and Electric 💫is weak only to Ground.
4 Meloetta
One of the most newer 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mythical Pokémon is Meloetta, a Pokémon that resembles a singer, dancer, or pop st♓ar. Meloetta actually has two forms that it can famously switch between: Its Psychic-tyꦚpe Aria Form and its Fighting-type Pirouette Form.
But, in actuality, both of these forms are Normal-type as well. Aria Form Meloetta is Normal/Psychic, and Pirouette Form Meloett🐷a is Normal/Fighting. It doesn't share any weaknesses or resistance𝔍s between its two forms at all, which is interesting.
3 Regigigas
The original Regi trio of🦄 Regice, Regirock, and Registeel are associated closely with the elements their types represent. These golems are masters of Ice, Rock, and Steel, respectively. In the upcoming Crown Tundra, they'll be joined by Regidrago and Regieleki, which are masters of Dragons and Electricity, as well.
In Generation IV, the original trio was given a trio master in Regigigas, a poweꦡrful tit𝔉an that holds power over them. Its appearance suggests it could be an Electric- or Grass-type, but it's just a pure Normal-type.
2 Azurill
Marill and its evolution, Azumarill, were some of the first Pokémon from Generation II introduced to the public. They're Water-types in their initial generation, before one day receiving a conversion to Water/Fairy in Generation VI as part of the 1🌌68澳洲幸运5开奖网:list of pre-existing 'mons given the Fairy-type.
In Generation III, this evolutionary family received a Baby Pokémon in Azurill. One could reasonably suggest that it's a Water-type like its evolutions, but it was actually pure Normal-type. In Gen VI, it was changed to Normal/Fairy, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:still lacking the Water-type.
1 Drampa
Dragon-type Pokémon are rare and very powerful. They're often given secondary typings that enhance how cool and powerful they are, like Fire and Dark. Just look to Pokémon like Hydreigon, Zekrom, Reshiram, or many oth🌠ers. These are big, powerful dragons with elemental prowess that screams "epic.🍌"
However, some dragons are given types that aren't so epic and cool. A perfect example is Drampa, which is a Dragon/Normal-type. However, don't underestimate this typing, as Drampa has Same-Type Attack Bonus advantage 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:on moves like Hyper Beam. Watch out!
