Remember klutz?

tacit sphinx
#

No

golden lance
#

Tldr

#

"This mon cannot use held items"

obsidian juniper
#

broken, cant get a choice item put onto you

#

trick users crying

tacit sphinx
#

Oh the Lopunny one okay

#

I had some ideas for abilities lately

#

Except when I thought about it

#

Most of them uh

#

existed

#

There’s a lot of abilities

#

I did have one that was really neat

#

Sugar Rush
This Pokemon always moves first the turn after it eats a Berry.

#

You give it to fruit or eating mons like Tropius, Appletun, Flapple, etc.

normal cave
#

Give it to wob and get a priority destiny bond

#

Wait nvm

#

It overrides destiny bond

#

But wob has custap berry anyways

tacit sphinx
#

I found something interesting out recently btw

#

Did y’all know Lugia was invented for the movie first

#

and it was just so popular that they made it part of GS

#

Like originally it was just Ho-Oh

#

That’s why so much of the story is centred around it

#

“Takeshi Shudo, script writer for the second movie, created the character of Pokémon X for the movie as a new Pokémon that symbolizes ocean currents. This role was ultimately filled by Lugia, whose name and design were created by someone else. Shudo was surprised when Lugia later showed up in the Pokémon games, having expected it to be exclusive to the movie.”

#

fuck

normal cave
#

Ye

#

Issa great design

maiden flax

#

galar darm on roids

mighty storm
#

The box legendaries definitely have to be water, that way they neutral against me OMEGUFACE

#

this time with the name my family calls me

#

10 physical def

#

what am I, a specially offensive fast blissey?

tacit sphinx
#

Lugia battle theme > Ho-Oh battle theme

normal cave
#

That take is nuclear

#

Then again I never liked the lugia battle theme while I adore the ho-oh one

#

So I'm biased ig

golden lance
#

Lugia's theme is kinda bland imo

tacit sphinx
#

Lugia’s theme gives me chills

golden lance
#

Like

#

It gives me generic kaiju movie vibes

tacit sphinx
#

Specifically this bit

#

I unfailingly get goosebumps

#

Whenever that flute kicks in

#

Ho-Oh’s battle theme is amazing, don’t get me wrong

#

But it’s not quite as intimidating

normal cave
#

Yeah it's not intimidating

#

It's festive

tacit sphinx
#

Like idk the best legendary themes to me sound daunting as well?

normal cave
#

Fitting of a benevolent deity

tacit sphinx
#

Like “oh shit can I even catch this thing”

normal cave
#

Ho-oh is Very Nice

tacit sphinx
#

I think Ho-Oh’s is too calm for me

#

Or, not calm

#

Like it feels like a fair fight ig??

normal cave
#

Yeah

tacit sphinx
#

And I don’t care for that in legendary themes

normal cave
#

But I think that fits ho-oh specifically

#

Because it's revered as a benevolent being

golden lance
#

Ho-oH 's fight feels more like a test of worthiness imo

normal cave
#

It's not going to tear you a new one, it's going to-

golden lance
#

Lugia's you're just fighting for your life

normal cave
#

Ho-oh is too nice to kill you

tacit sphinx
#

Yeah and I just prefer the “Lugia is going to fucking drown me” feeling

#

Also the slow section with the upright bass in Lugia’s theme is so good

golden lance
#

Something something not a water type

normal cave
#

Ho-oh's theme is p unique in how fun it is

tacit sphinx
#

You know what two legendary themes are the best imo

golden lance
tacit sphinx
#

Beasts and Lake Trio

golden lance
#

True

normal cave
#

Like, it's a legendary battle where both sides just want to have fun and test each other

tacit sphinx
#

Beasts hits hard and Lake Trio hits super hard

golden lance
#

Btw

#

Tapu's theme fucks

tacit sphinx
normal cave
#

Best leggo theme IMO is probs giratina or gen 5 generic legendary

#

Or ultra necrozma

#

Ultra necro theme makes me melt

golden lance
#

Also obligatory shout outs to rse deoxys

tacit sphinx
#

ORAS one feels so limp by comparison

golden lance
#

Not the remakes version, the RSE one specifically

normal cave
#

Yeesssss

#

It's so good

tacit sphinx
#

Actually

#

Hot take

random stream
#

RSE deoxys is great yeah

golden lance
#

Resh/Zekrom's theme is also rlly good imo

tacit sphinx
#

Unironically the best four bars in the entire franchise

golden lance
#

While on hot takes

#

Dialga/Palkia's theme is mid

tacit sphinx
golden lance
#

Gen 4 generic legendary theme goes harder

#

Btw, anyone remembers the bdsp legendaries themes?

tacit sphinx
golden lance
#

Where they remixed fight to the finish and all 6 bdsp players went batshit insane

normal cave
tacit sphinx
#

Wait really?

normal cave
golden lance
#

Yea

normal cave
tacit sphinx
#

I like Forretress more

normal cave
#

They can fill similar roles, I guess, but foretress sets itself apart by having rapid spin

#

Foretress also tends to explode

golden lance
#

Ok but can you put band on forretress?

normal cave
#

Giving you a safe switch

tacit sphinx
#

I just think they’re neat.

normal cave
#

There are different reasons to run ferro and foretress

#

Both good

tacit sphinx
#

Isn’t Forretress in Gen 9 UU rn solely because there’s like no other hazard setters

normal cave
#

?

golden lance
#

Yes

normal cave
#

Gen 9 has hella hazard setters

#

No?

#

Iron treads, great tusk, garg

#

Glimora

golden lance
#

Altho it has no sample sets on smogon

#

Except for 1 entry in monotype bug

tacit sphinx
normal cave
#

Tinkaton, gastro, quag

tacit sphinx
#

Okay looking at UU

#

I think it’s for Spin

#

Because it’s like Forretress and Donphan as your options

normal cave
#

Yeah spin is its advantage

#

Uu is full of hazard stacking because tinkaton is so absurd

tacit sphinx
#

Also here’s the UU meta meme from Stunfisk rn

normal cave
#

I've soloed teams with utility tinkaton

tacit sphinx
#

Shout outs to poor Forretress having the entire AM speech from I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream

golden lance
#

Quag's entry is kinda inaccurate ngl

#

It was always a UU menace most of the time, even before clod

normal cave
#

It never was ou, it was just good in ou. No?

golden lance
#

Yea

#

It's basically the litmus test of a healthy format

normal cave
#

Unaware meant it was as good as the tier you played it in

golden lance
#

Mhm

#

Sometimes it just hanged around in ubers while sucking in ou

maiden flax
golden lance
#

Gen 9 powercreep deadinside

maiden flax
#

The unaware trio are unaware of your problems

#

I like how they are statted too lol

One is heavily phys def
One i heavily spdef
One is mixed with good offense

tacit sphinx
#

Anyone else a Spidops fan

golden lance
#

It's the 4th coolest gen 9 bug

fading stratus
#

Yeah

#

After Slither wing, lokix and rabsca

maiden flax
#

its less cool than iron moth and they arent even a bug type

golden lance
fading stratus
#

Oh

#

No

#

Rabsca sucks

#

I just like it's because it's pondering it's orb

maiden flax
#

Rabsca is cool though 😔

fading stratus
#

Spidops is probably my least favourite fully evolved bug

tacit sphinx
#

404 stats not found

normal cave
#

Gen 9 had 2 amazing bugs in slither wing and lokix

#

Slither wing especially.

fading stratus
#

Wing is one of my fav paradox mons

maiden flax
#

I liked rabsca too

normal cave
#

I think it's my no1 fave paradox

#

Moon and moth are also awesome

fading stratus
#

My 1 is tusk

tacit sphinx
#

Man idk Spidops just has a fun design

maiden flax
#

Iron moth > regular volc > slither wing

All 3 are very cool though

tacit sphinx
#

Also massive confession but I used Spidops for 5/8 gyms before I finally actually checked its stats

normal cave
#

Every time I see tusk I just think "liquidation time"

fading stratus
#

Wing > moth>volc for me

tacit sphinx
#

I have Stockholm syndrome for Spidops

normal cave
#

I can't enjoy its design because of what floatzel gaming has done to my brain

#

Volc>wing>moth for me

fading stratus
#

I haven't played singles in months actually
And floatzel is super unreliable in doubles

normal cave
#

Og volc is my fave bug

tacit sphinx
fading stratus
#

A well timed protect just murders the whole strategy

tacit sphinx
#

Which ones are worse than the og

normal cave
#

I play singles because of floatzel

#

I LOVE floatzel

tacit sphinx
#

For me idk I feel like I don’t care for a lot of the future designs

golden lance
tacit sphinx
#

A lot of future mons aren’t actually super different aside from being robots idk

tacit sphinx
#

Like all the past ones are way more interesting

fading stratus
maiden flax
#

A lot of the future ones look better in motion

Like virizion doesnt look that different from regular viriz but in motion iron leaves actually looks cooler than virizion

tacit sphinx
#

Like Treads and Valiant are probably the future mons that have the biggest differences from the og

fading stratus
#

Leaves also looks weird to me

#

Forgot it even existed

maiden flax
#

Iron moth is hella cool

fading stratus
#

I wonder if they'll allow wake and leaves in next VGC season

maiden flax
#

Solar panel wings with a sun symbol on it clicking one by one

tacit sphinx
#

I do think something cute about Jugulis is that its faces turn off when it’s asleep lmao

normal cave
#

In that gif you can see it being passed down to a new generation

golden lance
#

Yea

#

Jugulis' face being holograms is nice

#

But barely noticeable

normal cave
tacit sphinx
#

@normal cave i have a non-wezl for you to rate

golden lance
#

Yea

tacit sphinx
#

What’s your take on Skuntank

#

It’s also a mustelid right

#

So

normal cave
#

It grew a lot on me

maiden flax
#

Its especially noticable when it sleeps

But its really difficult to notice otherwise

normal cave
fading stratus
#

Stinky

tacit sphinx
#

Actually this raises a question

normal cave
#

Used to be a mustelid

tacit sphinx
#

How come SV doesn’t use sleeping animations when a Pokemon is asleep

tacit sphinx
normal cave
#

It was reclassified as its own family

tacit sphinx
#

Fuck taxonomists all my homies hate taxonomists

#

In-universe has a Pokemon ever been reclassified

normal cave
#

I still adore skunks

tacit sphinx
#

Other than typing changes I mean

normal cave
#

Not as far as I know

tacit sphinx
#

Like is there a lore thing of “oh we thought it was one thing but it’s not”

normal cave
#

Oh

#

I think I remember there being something like that

#

But I can't remember what

maiden flax
#

Whats cool is all of iron leaves red bits are transformable blades

normal cave
#

I dislike that about leaves ngl

#

It looks so goofy

maiden flax
#

I think its cool

golden lance
#

Man

#

How come we dont have a future para that just shoots laser beams

fading stratus
#

We should've gotten paradox forms of all 3 starters

#

Future dirge could've blasted lasers for you

tacit sphinx
#

You know what I was surprised as fuck to learn recently

#

There is unironically a niche for Sunny Day teams in GSC

#

I knew the move existed in GSC but I had no idea anyone used it

spice rivet
tacit sphinx
#

holy fuck

spice rivet
#

Straight to AG lmaooooooo

fading stratus
tacit sphinx
#

Am I the only fucking loser here who ended up with more than 2 stats that were 2-digit

#

Look at the shit I got

fading stratus
#

Sounds like a TR user that could work in doubles

#

92 SpA is decent too

tacit sphinx
#

Rattled is the biggest meme

#

Has any mon gotten use out of Rattled

fading stratus
#

It's in hisuian braviary levels of meme ability

#

Oh wait it's not braviary I think

#

Forgot what I was thinking about

maiden flax
fading stratus
#

Rattled should be decent if on a good physical Mon in doubles

#

Where intimidate is common

pseudo goblet
fading stratus
#

Eww ice type

pseudo goblet
#

Ikr lol

fading stratus
#

Flash fire is cool atleast

#

Gets rid of one 4x

pseudo goblet
#

Mold breaker lmao

fading stratus
#

Tera ghost probably best tera for it

#

What even has mold breaker rn

#

Tinkaton? Lmao

pseudo goblet
#

Gonna try with real name(not gonna show ofc

fading stratus
#

I should try with real name too

pseudo goblet
#

Wtf even is Power of Alchemy???

tacit sphinx
fading stratus
#

Not really my 'real' name but a name that my friends call me by

#

And it's not awful ig

tacit sphinx
#

Basically in doubles if Alolan Muk’s teammate faints, Power of Alchemy is replaced with the teammate’s ability @pseudo goblet

fading stratus
#

Remember when alolan muk was actually good?

#

Good ol' times

tacit sphinx
#

I wonder what the worst signature ability is that isn’t detrimental

#

So no Slow Start or Defeatist

fading stratus
#

Surge surfer EZ

#

It's not that awful ig

pseudo goblet
#

Ball fetch?

fading stratus
#

Forewarn

tacit sphinx
golden lance
#

No?

tacit sphinx
#

Chocolate please read.

golden lance
#

Oh

#

Mb

fading stratus
#

Normalize is probably the worst actually

golden lance
#

Quick draw is a contender i think

#

Pastel veil is also a thing

fading stratus
#

Stall

golden lance
#

That's detrimental tho

pseudo goblet
#

Sushi

#

Isn’t one of them a shiny?

tacit sphinx
#

Or, is Toxic not great rn

fading stratus
#

Even without stall

golden lance
#

Mega evolve EZ

tacit sphinx
pseudo goblet
#

Doesn’t it have prankster?

fading stratus
#

I'm talking about stall not being detrimental

#

Not prankster being good

golden lance
#

"This thing with only negatives is not detrimental because the mon it's attached to is bad"

#

What kind of logic is that?

fading stratus
#

I mean yeah

golden lance
tacit sphinx
#

I literally don’t know what it does

golden lance
#

Also, there's a bunch of abilities that only trigger in doubles so if you want to count singles only there's that

fading stratus
#

It makes status move have negative priority

golden lance
#

At the cost of them not being able to be blocked by moves/other abilities

fading stratus
#

It'd be really cool spore user without that ability

tacit sphinx
#

Wait did they make this just so that there wasn’t a 100 Spe Sporer

#

I can actually respect the decision tbh

fading stratus
#

Yes
Idk it's speed

tacit sphinx
#

Same as Tentacruel right

fading stratus
#

Apparently 100, yeah

#

It'd be really cool in doubles without mycelium might
Spore + rage power+ a decent typing+really good special defense

tacit sphinx
fading stratus
#

Fair enough

golden lance
#

Chat

fading stratus
#

But there's brute bonnet already tho
It's just that it's typing isn't great

golden lance
#

Special/physical split happens in gen 3 instead of 4, what changes?

pseudo goblet
#

Think was 4

fading stratus
#

Dodrio wouldn't be best bird of frlg

pseudo goblet
#

3 introduce ability

fading stratus
#

It's a what if

pseudo goblet
#

Oh mb

#

Blaziken

golden lance
#

Obvious stuff would be some mons getting usable stabs

#

Like swampert and breloom

fading stratus
#

Sharpedo would be playable too

golden lance
#

Physical dragon types also become way better

#

Ttar gets buffed as well

pseudo goblet
#

Do we have dragons with better physical stat?

golden lance
#

Dnite

fading stratus
#

Oh yeah

#

Alakazam would get downgraded

#

Same with stuff like sceptile

golden lance
#

Would hitmonchan be usable?

fading stratus
#

Ig

#

Since elemental punches become physical

#

All the physical Mons that learned shadow ball get downgraded

#

And wasn't poison physical too?

golden lance
#

Yes

fading stratus
#

Oh yeah the rule of thumb
The eeveelutions and dragon type were only special type iirc

golden lance
#

Oh wait

#

Venusaur buffs

#

Pog

tacit sphinx
#

Gen 2 would be interesting

#

Think about it

#

A lot of gen 2 mons actually use HP well

golden lance
#

WAIT

tacit sphinx
#

Some even as a STAB

golden lance
#

METAGROSS

fading stratus
#

Feraligatr

#

And what's magikarp evolution again I somehow forgot its name

tacit sphinx
#

Uh, off the top of my head

#

Slaking loses its niche

#

Actually a lot of good physical mons lose out on Shadow Ball

fading stratus
#

Oh yeah guarados

tacit sphinx
fading stratus
#

Loses both shadow ball and sludge bomb

#

Granbull was okay in gen 3

#

It was a decent physical attacker

golden lance
#

Crobat could be interesting ngl

tacit sphinx
#

Sneasel has stab finally

#

You know what’s a really interesting thought for me

#

What happens to Gen 2 OU if Heracross gets Cross Chop

golden lance
#

Would snorlax fall?

tacit sphinx
#

Hmm

fading stratus
#

Hyper beam being physical you mean?

tacit sphinx
#

I don’t think so, but it reduces Lax’s tyranny a bit

golden lance
pseudo goblet
#

Would like more speedy tanks pokemon here ConcernedFroge

fading stratus
#

We just got one

pseudo goblet
#

Only Pokémon like that think is Zamazenta

tacit sphinx
#

Heracross has less physical bulk and HP so it can’t exactly switch in on a Double Edge

fading stratus
#

Literally scream tail zane

tacit sphinx
#

It also has 5 less Atk so Cross Chop isn’t doing more to Lax

pseudo goblet
tacit sphinx
#

Then again… Hera has a Ground resist and Machamp doesn’t

pseudo goblet
#

The rat of Area Zero

tacit sphinx
#

So if you predict an EQ you can switch in on Lax more safely

#

Y’all wanna know a fun fact about how fucking strong Machamp is btw

fading stratus
#

I remember cross chopping another machamp and killing it iirc

tacit sphinx
#

After a Curse, with a crit Cross Chop, Machamp OHKOs Skarmory with a physical hit

fading stratus
#

No idea about anything else

golden lance
tacit sphinx
#

Crit Cross Chop isn’t a meme either, the move has a higher crit rate

fading stratus
#

If it's fat me I'd consider strong
If it's skinny then nah probably not strong

#

Hot take but they should give slaking skill swap EZ

tacit sphinx
#

skill swap just means it has one gimmick

golden lance
#

Countercounterpoint, instead of reducing damage, make it automatically use slack off instead

fading stratus
#

Could make it not being able to use attacking move in truant turns ig

#

And the high bst isn't even a huge problem since we do have palafin

tacit sphinx
#

Beasts

pseudo goblet
#

Bark

#

If they are like, making Paradox for the rest of sword of justice and beast trio , please give Raikou a good one, please 🙏🏻

fading stratus
#

They probably won't make for the rest

pseudo goblet
#

I still pretty like Grass and electric, so Raikou

fading stratus
#

Fire rock ancient entei would be cool actually

pseudo goblet
#

Yo magma, magma leaking out of its body, yeah?

fading stratus
#

Sure

swift jasper
#

Sounds about right

pseudo goblet
#

Cutiefly fluff

swift jasper
#

Ngl, a good statted mon with battery would sweep vgc

#

Also give it like

#

Good speed and after you

pseudo goblet
#

What battery do

swift jasper
#

Torcoal sweep time

#

Boosts allies' special moves by 30%

pseudo goblet
swift jasper
#

It's only on charjabug so it's bad

#

We've had a bit of win from liligant/torcoal

#

Where the sun boosts liligant's speed and she has after you, so you explode ppl with torcoal

#

Reminds me of bonking your own armarouge for weak armor

#

But there's too many psychic resists rn iirc

#

Not an expert on vgc, i just enjoy watching wolfe and cybertron

fading stratus
pseudo goblet
#

The transport pokemon need a transport

snow oasis
#

why do I have the WORST goddamn luck with natures in this Emerald run

Just caught an Adamant Vulpix to go with my Timid Sandslash and Modest Gyarados

Jolly Slugma

outer eagle
#

It do be like that sometimes

#

Altho for me i won’t even attempt to use something like Bold Ferro so i’ve learnt to deal with the tilt

tacit sphinx
#

you ever remember that toxic has 85 accuracy

#

because i just whiffed four times in a row

#

why the fuck am i even bothering trying to play comp

snow oasis
#

Deathless no more @random stream :(

random stream
#

to both

snow oasis
#

Lost my Numel to a Slash crit and then my Magneton when it was trapped by another Magneton and lost the hax parafusion war

#

Do you think I should buy an Ice Beam TM for Winona? My best users all have abysmal SpA

#

God why do gen 3 electric mons have such unusable movesets

spice rivet
#

Take with a grain of salt, but for Scarlet and Violet Booster boxes from watching ~6 box openings the "gaurantees" in a box are:
4-5 Secret Rares (FAs, Gold,r Secret Artist Rares)
2-3 Artist Rares
4-5 Ultra Rares
So usually 10-13 hits per box. Secrets also always seem to gaurantee atleast 1 SAR and 1 Gold.

Honestly not too shabby, though we'd need proper case ratios to truly see what everything looks like.

random stream
#

but you dont need to buy just head to the abandoned ship

#

losing a potential camerupt and magneton is unfort though

hexed valley
#

Nah slaking would be good

#

Regigigas too probably tbh

placid junco
#

regigigas would be fine
slaking would be good

#

Gigas also just has a pretty bad movepool

pseudo goblet
hexed valley
#

It has knock twave what else do you need tbh just crush grip and para the entire team

#

Could probably do like sub twave with drain punch or something

#

Or focus

#

It doesn't get taunt which sucks ig

crimson moat
#

Its recovery is also pretty damn bad

#

Drain punch exists but with slow start you aren’t recovering much

#

Substitute can set up a turnstall and limit damage but you need to play against Gigas being slow af.

#

No rest either, can’t build towards that

#

Lol it gets Wide Guard

#

It also gets sleep talk and snore but not rest lmfao

normal cave
#

Might be my fave non-wezl pokemon

pseudo goblet
#

Again, idk if there’s like, spin off anime that had him speaking, so

placid junco
#

yeah Gigas would just be fine without slow start tbh

archeops without defeatist would be fine too
they legit only gave it defeatist so it wasn't objectively better than carracosta

sand forge
#

Where Galarian Lugia

pseudo goblet
#

Might explains Galarian Bird trio even

bleak pine
#

My thoughts on Slow Start

#

Perhaps have it still reduce Regigigas ATK, SP ATK and SPD, but also make it so Regigigas takes reduced damage while active

#

Still hammers in that it needs to get its act together but it adds tension as the opponent needs to hurry and defeat Regigigas before it becomes a problem

#

And Revavroom I guess

outer eagle
#

Slow Start should be like make all your moves reduced priority at most imo

#

It’s called Slow Start, not “I woke up with a broken back”

pseudo goblet
bleak pine
#

You swam in the wrong lake

sand forge
#

If a Pokémon could have 3 types, what would be the most broken

outer eagle
#

Steel Fairy Dragon?

#

Maybe Steel Fairy Water OgreThink

sand forge
#

Rotom becomes Ghost/Electric/<form>

vagrant steppe
sand forge
#

Also Bombirdier

#

Rock/Flying/Dark

vagrant steppe
#

Oh true

sand forge
#

And Regieleki is the world's first Electric/Electric

tacit sphinx
#

What is Bombirdier’s deal

sand forge
#

fly over drop rocks

bleak pine
#

Bombirdier's a horrible jerk

#

And that really just makes it the most Dark type of the bunch

hexed valley
tacit sphinx
#

Like does Bombirdier do anything

warm sky
#

It's the stork, but evil

bleak pine
#

It drops rocks and other junk on things from above just cause it's fun

#

Seriously, it's a bigger jerk than most dark-types.

lucid moth
normal cave
#

It doesn't say it drops things on others

#

It just drops things

#

Not egg-thief level evil

bleak pine
#

If it had babies it'd probably just drop them too

#

Even it's cry sounds like it's just laughing.

normal cave
#

So it's just having fun without a care

bleak pine
#

I mean to be fair, egg stealing could just be excused as just another way to get a meal.

normal cave
#

That's true

#

Food is food

bleak pine
#

Food!

#

well it is melted wax

tacit sphinx
bleak pine
#

It do be like that

#

Types are weird

Though, you can probably infer that Tinkaton stands to gain something out of running an impromptu driving range.

Pex has Regenerator, it's Sableye that has Stall

Don’t ride any flying taxis any time soon Dek

normal cave
#

Funbro was probs the most annoying stall mon of all time

#

Since it kept you hostage until you forfeited

#

It was designed to irritate

#

Also I'd put garg up there

#

Because who thought it was okay

warm sky
vocal torrent
#

Garganacl is the new Funbro?

fading stratus
#

Garganacl is cool

#

Salt curing everything EZ

#

Honestly stall Mon have been less good this gen due to recovery moves being 8 pp instead of 16

warm sky

Funbro is the best worst thing in all of Pokémon

Best boy battle, Arven vs Kirby

normal cave
#

Kirby

#

Arven is good, but kirby is better imo

#

Tho kirbs would just try to cheer arven up

pseudo goblet
#

Kirby fight a god for Arven

#

Kirby vs every legendaries lmfao

#

What y’all think, which gen of legendaries gives the most challenge to Kirby KEKW

normal cave
#

4

#

It has the most powerful ones, lore wise

#

Ultra necrozma also works

#

But Kirby has fought enemies similar to Ultra Necro before

#

Arceus would be a real challenge, but both entities are benevolent, so idk if they'd fight

pseudo goblet
#

Kirby accidentally ate Arceus cake

normal cave
#

More like Arceus took Kirby's shortcake by accident

#

In which case, I think Kirby wins, but I'm guessing it would be a tough fight

pseudo goblet
#

Oh yeah that seems more likely actually, Doubt Arceus is the type to actively eats cake

normal cave
#

Arceus 100% eats cake

#

It eats poffins and pokepuffs

#

But it could probably make a new cake for kirby, or at least summon one

pseudo goblet
#

Yo Arceus kept changing between 18 types and the attacks gives Kirby each power, keeping the one you have and deal super effective damage with type charts to Arceus

maiden flax
#

Arceus doesnt eat cake

Arceus lets one of his 1000 clones eat the cake

pseudo goblet

Oh wait I forgot, some people already doing that with BDSP

Iirc the pachirisu team also had gothitelle in the wing

Pachirisu was like 2016 or 15

If only I was smart so I could fucking win more with her

Terra Steel Salamence fucking kills me

That's why I swapped gastro to phys def quag

Tink is a massive special wall with the single best defensive typing in the game

So I can afford to put more pressure on her by swapping off gastro

while i understand i will chastise you for it

normal cave

As you should

warm sky

I just like Gastro more, and it's better when not fighting setup sweepers but god. Terra Steel Salamence destroys my team

normal cave
#

Yeah, gastro is more tanky

#

Quag is there for unaware, because the team is weak to mence.

Maybe wezl can deal with it if you swap in and click low sweep over ice spinner, but it's sus

Yeah, and you need to do it before dragon dance, else you should choice scarf it tbh

i wonder how leaves and wake will do

spice rivet
#

I think Wake will start off nearly everywhere but so will Gastro so itll actually balance out like that. No idea on Leaves but it seems like itd slot in along side Moth/Moon as "not seen always but deserves respect"

#

Not sure what coverage Wake has for Gastrodon, but maybe the main Tera will switch from Fire to Fairy/Steel to cover for that

#

Btw Fire Tera Gastrodon alongside Arcanine vs Ir9n Bundle is a helluva cash money feeling lmao
