Hello, I’m just gonna talk about something that has always bothered me. It’s Sky Fortress’s flying type requirement. I can understand this restriction for a dungeon like Mt.Stormhold since it’s not really a “major” dungeon. It’s just one that grants you access to Sky Fortress and you’re meant to get through it quickly and the Flying-type restriction makes sense there.
All I wanna do is enter the dungeon with my main team, but I can’t. Not because of a limited party restriction (i.e “You are limited to two Pokemon for this dungeon”) but because none of my Pokemon are flying.
Not only is this just annoying since I’m not that big of a fan of Flying types and only have one trained up (and it’s not even strong enough for SF at that) It just doesn’t make any sense to me. You already flew to get to the dungeon, what more flying do you need to do? Is your one flying type literally carrying your entire team throughout the dungeon?
Most of Sky Fortress is all solid ground. The only “Cloud” I can remember is the fairy section and even then the Pokemon such as Gardevoir get by just fine without being Flying-type. (Same goes for all the Fire, Ice, and Electric-types) So it just seems odd to me why you need a Flying-type.
Of course, those reasons are more or less aesthetic, however I will say that it is just annoying and makes things rather unfun. It’s better IMO for players to use the teams they want and have built, especially for dungeons that are as long as 99f. Restricting a player’s team this way just seems like a slap in the face for a dungeon as long as this one. Not every player will have a Flying type that is suitable for this dungeon.
I’m really not sure what else to say. It’s just a bit annoying is all and I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way. Feel free to chime in with your own thoughts. All that said, I do hope that this can change in the future and the dungeon can be less restrictive and a bit more fun.
EDIT: I should go into a tiny bit more detail. I feel like the flying type restriction isn’t that difficult. It’s not hard to get through a dungeon with just 3 Pokemon, especially when the one flying type you have you just force to hold an item and call it done. It’s just annoying is all I feel like.
