That's a meh
I was waiting to get a better look at this one
It looks more vibrant (?) in one the teaser pictures
I like it!
It looks like a mineral/rock and water type tyrant since we see it emerging from the water in the screenshot.
I couldn't say if it was an abyssal tyrant but I wouldn't rule it out.
nice
um what abyssal
Defiantly going on the team
I wouldn't be surprised if this is a late game encounter like lv 45-50
definitely a team member, if it isn't postgame at least
yoo thats so sick 100% on my team
100% on my team
What an Awesome Nexomon
Looks like it could be a legend or at least super rare ( I know the rarity system doesn't exist anymore, I'm just assuming how hard it would be to come across it)
I just thought about something, since Godzilla vs King Kong is a reoccurring trend, I wonder if this guy has a similar rivalry with Goribilda (buff gym gorilla mon)
(me)
guys you can reply without mentioning people
ok :(P)
A true ice cave dinosaur?
Original concept by Richard
Ross’s version is far more colorful
@fleet pine - Ross,Please don't bear any grudges but I prefer the Original Concept of Pulvrex a lot more
Did you need to mention him for that one?
All’s well
It's just that the Original Design of Pulvrex looks a lot more Realistic
Ironically, that’s why I redesigned it.
Team
maybe a legendary or somewhere between Mega/Ultra Rare
The T-Rex is my favorite dino so will be in my main roster
Just gonna assume that like the other 2 games they are all 1 typing, so leaning with this guy being just a Mineral Type
Nope
but a nexomon i plan to use in my main roster
Rarities won't make a return
We sure about that? Just curious
It was confirmed by Devs iirc
ok, but unless something comes up, gonna assume the new nexomon are only 1 singular type
The new Nexomon can be multiple affinities of varying percentages. For example, 70% fire, 30% mineral.
Of course, some can be 100% of one specific type.
though Omnicron proves that a Nexomon can use another Element that is not their own
pulvrex i am definitely adding
Omnicron is from Nexomon 1, in Nexomon 3, nexomon have affinities as Ross pointed out, so they are no longer "fire type" but now have a certain amount of fire affinity and other type affinities so that the total makes 100% (100% fire or 70% fire + 30% mineral). This was the first piece of information revealed about N3. There shouldn't be a reason for a Nexomon to have a move from an element that they don't have affinity with. They can however (theoretically) have affinities in all elements (10% fire, 15% water, 10% wind...)
Coverage is a reason for having moves from Elements they don't have
true.
Nexomon 2 Columbra, despite being a normal type, has fire moves, which is unique
I'm not sure, about the coverage thing, there are only 7 elements, if a mon has 3 affinities for example, they will probably have at least one element that deals neutral or super effective damage to the opponent, if on top of that they need coverage, that might be a bit much, it all depends on how super effective/resistances work. But imo affinities+coverage seems like overkill given that nexomon elements have generally been balanced
in your example with 3 affinities, it's just one instance more than dual typed Pokemon who indeed have a lot of coverage moves. Coverage is important because sometimes you're not aiming at STAB bonus but at dealing the most effective damage possible. And especially with 3 affinities opposing you, that likely requires coverage.
In Pokémon there are 17 types and they aren't very balanced (ex : steel resistances, grasses weakness...) some Pokémon are only weak to 1 or 2 out of 17 types so coverage is required, Nexomon doesn't have this problem (unless they completely rework the element chart)
Each Nexomon is weak to 2 elements (we don't know anything about arcane so I'm not going to over complicate things by including it) if an opponent has 3 affinities chances are one of your mons has an attack that is super effective or at least neutral. If it's still going to be multibattles you just target what you have the best matchup against
It was annoying in extinction that there was barely any coverage, I'll give you that, but everything was monotype so it was a different story
question now will be if new types will appear
They won't I assure you, it was a huge hassle, they decided on 7 (arcane replacing ghost and psychic, normal is now zero affinity so basically Typeless)
not really. Everything being monotype made it worse, certainly, but the issue doesn't solely exist in monotypes. It also doesn't quite matter if you have 18 types or 8, because that's still sufficient to make a more complex chart of, especially if an affinity system is used. Affinities can create very interesting scenarios where there's only one weakness and 3 elements are resisted, which you can unluckily just have; and generally you'd be aiming for super effective moves if possible as STAB is likely not going to be a such huge factor on triple affinities. Ultimately, being limited to 3 elements is too much for a game with otherwise oh so much diversity in its elements, and the battles would suffer from it.
Coverage is needed, you don't need to outdo it, naturally, but having 2-3 other elements that you don't have affinities of should be important to at least consider as a rule of thumb
If I've got a mon with affinities that are only both weak to and resisted by the ally I'll be switching out instead of using a coverage move
losing a turn where you don't attack, giving the opponent free damage and possibly culminating in a switch spam from both sides
and thus, coverage is better
Depends on the situation and how the gameplay works anyway, too soon to tell now
