but neat to see

molten latch
#

Indeed

#

Chimecho does have an. . . Odd stats.

warm skiff
#

wish chimecho was useable but also it's silly

gray vine
#

its a cute mon

#

and so is its pre evo and dont get why people didnt like that it got one

#

Turtonator and the uhh Lighter Dragon need a pre evo

#

Duraludon

feral bear
#

YESS RIBOMBEEEEEE

glass patio
#

did it really just make the zubat explode

feral bear
#

Queen of violence

glass patio
#

like it just straight up exploded

zenith sinew
#

Honestly, the electric eel with levitate is a great choice, just saying. Elektross is worth it.

clear lichen
#

So it getting a prevo was kinda just Gamefreak telling us to go fuck ourselves

molten latch
#

She looks like a fairy that can lead you to your journey.

#

Like Navi from Zelda

civic harness

#

Also nice, more Quiver Dance

#

Quiver Dance is a peak move

feral bear
#

Vote her NOW

clear lichen
# feral bear

Wouldn't Lunala fit with the entire aesthetic more

#

I might just be biased though

#

(I am)

#

(I definitely am)

feral bear
#

Lunala was already booked

clear lichen
#

Also if you were to ask me between Solgaleo and Lunala which one looked like it could dance better, I'd immediately answer Lunala

feral bear
#

Solg can do tippy tappys tho

clear lichen
#

Anyways give Solgaleo Victory Dance and Lunala Quiver Dance frfr

#

Definitely very fair and balanced

clear lichen
sleek hornet
#

Let’s gooooooo! Ribombee’s at the final first vote! :3

clear lichen
#

So clearly Quiver Dance doesn't require feet

#

Feet are only an option

#

I feel like Quiver Dance is more of a twirl

#

Yknow what I mean?

sleek hornet
#

Yeah when Volcarona does it, it twirls around. (Agreeing and adding to the response, Ik the response was for someone else)

glass patio
feral bear
#

It does not matter what form of extremities u have, as long as the dance is in ur heart and spirit

glass patio
#

if either solgaleo or lunala can dance better 💀

sleek hornet
#

How would a Giant metal lion and Giant Moon Bat dance? 🤔

glass patio
#

dancing

sleek hornet
#

hmmmm, yeah.

#

Don’t wanna blow and shake too much away XD

twin phoenix
#

Come to think of it.. dang, they didn't give Lunala Lunar Dance.

clear lichen
#

At least for Lunala

sleek hornet
#

true

clear lichen
#

For Solgaleo, I have 0 clue just roll with it

sleek hornet
#

I’ll probably imagine it dancing like Simba or something.

#

XD

#

That’s how I would see it dancing. :3

#

But then again, it is an Enormous mon. 💀

#

Or like this

#

Oh wait, its whole main (Idk how to spell it when it comes a lion) is metal, it’s not flowy like that. 💀

stuck bane
#

Ribombee is nice, another obvious 3 for me, but I don’t think it can stand up to lurantis in the votes unless it has something crazy for competitive players (however, a competitive player did pick it, so….)

sleek hornet
#

wait really?

stuck bane
#

Yep, see announcements, Ribombee was chosen after lurantis

sleek hornet
#

Okay I just looked, aweeeeesome. :3

#

But yeah it would most likely be voted out by Lurantis.

#

I think one of the only things it could offer is its pollen puff, but I can’t say too much since I’m just a Casual.

#

Ik there’s more

clear lichen
#

Personally I think I'd rate Ribombee and Lurantis equally

sleek hornet
#

That’s how I see it, Rimbombee is fairly popular.

#

Plus I love lurantis’s and Rimbomee’s aesthetic :3. Ones super cute, ones super cool. :3

snow scroll
glass patio
#

i actually forgot what was lurantis 💀

#

nvm i looked it up

silent acorn
#

0h wow two reveals today

#

Fomantis and Rimbombee really good picks

#

These elections are gonna be brutal

unique flame
#

for now my pick is slurpuff i like fairies and you have good room to work with candy stuff

#

lurantis/ribombe close second

alpine rune
#

You know what

#

I'm trying every contest later (that's left anyways)

#

I wanna cause chaos

unique flame
#

where i can find the rulling for the emote contest

silent acorn
#

With having to consider the possibility of Contrary Lurantis

analog stag
#

3/5 are fairies so far

silent acorn
analog stag
#

Kinda am hoping fairies and fighting types flood the poll

#

We need more of both

alpine rune
analog stag
#

It’s not a raffle

silent acorn
#

Hmm. No

analog stag
#

Winners vote between the 13

silent acorn
#

It is some votes

#

Ah it was the winners right

unique flame
alpine rune
analog stag
#

You can’t vote for your own

silent acorn
#

But nope its the 13 winners

unique flame
#

thats make more sense

silent acorn
#

I mean fair no pressure even though they got 3 fairies at the moment

#

Pelipper isn't looking so good right now

analog stag
#

So I’d recommend the winners to maybe form pacts or something or communicate with each other on the best choices

unique flame
#

we have enough birds

silent acorn
#

If 3/5 are fairies we got high chances fairies have 3 votes guarantee atleast

analog stag
alpine rune
# analog stag You can’t vote for your own

I mean that doesn't make sense, it'll be just strategically rigged. If the other players vote randomly and you vote 0 on all other Mons except yours, you'd be statistically have more chance for your Mon to get in

silent acorn
#

With how many there are right now and the fact there isn't enough in game yeah

silent acorn
#

To avoid that

#

So basically

#

They pick their thing

#

Individually

#

So who knows it might be 3 people choosing one is enough if all others stay below that

#

Since they can't pick their own mon they'll be forced to consider a different choice

#

And right now Pelipper isn't looking good

alpine rune
#

So you have to Choose only 1 besides their mon

analog stag
#

Yeah

alpine rune
#

You can not not choose basically

silent acorn
#

It's a high risk reward

#

Yea

analog stag
#

If someone wins multiple events, they can actually kinda rig it by choosing bad picks and taking away more votes from the poll, cause that’d eliminate another potential voter out of 13.

#

Like if someone wins 3 events, there’s only 11 voters

one billion lions when victini just exists:

A lot of Pokemon solo one billion lions

Lanturn solos the entire universe

One billion lions when Kyogre Water Spout:

Or Caly-I Glacial Lance

dusty arrow
#

i dont think the lions would be normal type

#

they would be typeless

#

BECAUSE THEY ARENT POKEMON

clear lichen
#

Oh

analog stag
#

What the actual fuck are the lions gonna do against Magcargo, who is hotter than the SUN?

unique flame

one milion lions when they sent pyroar as a spy among then to fumble their plans

(It's still one sided you aren't gonna bite magma)

clear lichen
#

Lanturn might unironically be the 2nd strongest Pokemon if we only look at dex entries

dusty arrow
#

lions when shedinja looks away from them

clear lichen
#

2nd to Arceus ofc

#

Idk why the lions debate exists outside of memes

#

Obviously when looking at it from a meme standpoint it's just funny and goofy but I've seen actual people think the lions stand a chance

dusty arrow
#

but a billion is a lot of lions.....

#

(this is a joke)

clear lichen
#

Ok

dusty arrow
clear lichen
dusty arrow
#

reminder that ferrothorn doesnt even have 500 bst

#

which means there could be a ferrothorn evo

#

and you know what that means heehee

clear lichen
#

It's hilarious

#

Eviolite is usually not too great

stuck bane
# dusty arrow

To add off of this, I think the jirachi movie confirms jirachi grants wishes by teleporting things in existence from one place to another. Aka: you wish for a million dollars, some millionaire suddenly loses a million dollars he had in his vault

So jirachi prob just teleports them into space or something

clear lichen
#

Mainly because Heavy-Duty Boots are just broken

#

However, Ferrothorn resisting Rocks might make it work?

#

But Spikes exist

#

Tbf Ferrothorn usually runs Leftovers

dusty arrow
#

spikes arent that common compared to rocks honestly

clear lichen
#

But even then, losing Leftovers is massive

#

Ferrothorn with Eviolite would probably only be about as good as Leftovers Ferrothorn

dusty arrow
clear lichen
#

And something tells me with how other Pokemon evolutions are, Ferrothorn's evolution is gonna be batshit insane if it ever gets made

#

(It won't)

#

(Tbf that's what people said about Bisharp)

dusty arrow
#

anyway

molten latch
#

Isn't that enough?

dusty arrow
#

ice type magikarp is separate from him though

stuck bane
#

Oh dang pollen puff with that speed stat could be crazy competitively for doubles though.

I think lurantis has best odds, Slurpuff next, then ribombee, then Carbink, and then Pelipper.

I think a surprise win from Slurpuff or Ribombee is still very possible, but lurantis with contrary and 3rd place in the sprite vote is like, the toughest competition.

Golisopod is the only thing that might be able to go toe to toe with lurantis, but idk how valuable water type with spikes is compared to contrary.

slim otter
#

Please add points to Gastrodon.
Thank you for your consideration.
Good night.

dusty arrow
#

i think pelipper has more of a chance then carbink, and ribombee a better chance than slurpuff

#

pelipper has a rain ability outside of kyogre, and ive seen more ribombee support than slurpuff

feral bear
#

i have seen barely anything for ribombee sadly, and theres like many people championing slurp, just check spritework

dusty arrow
#

oh

#

well i would like slurpuff honestly

#

carbink however..

feral bear
#

slurp is def the most likely fairy to win at this point

dusty arrow
#

i dont really like carbink

stuck bane
#

Slurpuff and Ribombee are definitely close in the race, but I don’t think pelipper’s rain alone will carry it above the absurd defenses Carbink would bring, but carbink might also be hindered by how many people hate stall

feral bear
#

carbink is a lil clumsy kutie

dusty arrow
#

shuckle > carbink any day

sleek hornet
#

Although it’s stats are okay…it’s design is :3

dusty arrow
sleek hornet
#

It’s not bad stats but it’s not the best either

stuck bane
dusty arrow
#

belly drum + unburden

glass patio
dusty arrow
#

we already have regular rocks, ice types for crystals, and steelix for crystals as well

stuck bane
#

Belly drum won’t be in competitive, so players won’t look at that, but there’s still fun stuff you can do with unburden

feral bear
#

its the perfect setup for an eventual diancie release, laying the groundwork hehe

sleek hornet
feral bear
#

[redacted]

quaint mauve
#

... I was gonna say at least carbink is screens, but Apparently while reflect is 18, light screen is fucking 60.

dusty arrow
#

either that or if carbink doesnt win, it will be added alongside diancie

#

i do think silly rock bunny could be cute though

stuck bane
#

Jojo is right, People could ABSOLUTELY vote carbink on the 1% chance it gets diancie in, ribbon has carried the diancie movement

sleek hornet
#

And unburden is only effective when you use an item. Hmmmm, but then again, you could use an item to boost its speed and then do belly drum. :3

feral bear
#

my sister

dusty arrow
#

belly drum gets you to half, slurpuff eats the berry and regens to get 75%

quaint mauve
dusty arrow
#

and slurpuff also gets drain punch

sleek hornet
#

Yeppers

#

Although it’s speed is 72

dusty arrow
#

OBSTAGOON RAHHHH

feral bear
#

we need a pure fairy so badly, it must be slurp although i like all the choices

sleek hornet
#

Yes!

My boi obstagoon

Would, but i dont own that generation

unless someone picks aromatisse 👀

#

I’d be happy with any tho

So far

sleek hornet

according to bulba its an outright double?

dusty arrow
#

yeah

sleek hornet
#

Oh riiiiight…

#

So slurpuff is pretty good then, nvm.

dusty arrow
sleek hornet
#

Good to know actually XD.

stuck bane
dusty arrow
#

belly drum would probably still be better

quaint mauve
#

the 90% accuracy on play rough is the only thing that worries me there though. All that setup only to miss

sleek hornet
#

Yeah I hate moves that are under 100% accuracy, it scares me.

dusty arrow
#

(clamperl propaganda)

quaint mauve
#

and thats the only physical move in slurps movepool.

stuck bane
#

That’s the gamble of max attack, also the build mostly focuses on acrobatics from meloetta since no item, so anything max attack acrobatics can’t kill leave to drain punch and play rough

dusty arrow
#

fairies dont exactly have a physical stab outside play rough though

#

unless you are a pokemon called grimmsnarl and iron valiant

sleek hornet
#

Yeaaaaah.

#

Those mons have spirit break? Right?

quaint mauve
#

draining kiss being special but making contact still fucks with me for some reason

clear lichen
dusty arrow
sleek hornet
#

Aahhh XD

dusty arrow
#

still better than physical rock types

sleek hornet
#

Absolutely

clear lichen
#

Ngl all the Fairy physical moves are kinda bad

#

Play Rough has like OK power

#

But isn't 100% accurate?

quaint mauve
# clear lichen Drain Punch

thats not on the gen 7 list though, so froggie would need to make an exception. not on tm, tutor, any of it

quaint mauve
#

... im actively looking at that, where is it?

clear lichen
#

Idk, all I know is that I'm checking via Showdown

sleek hornet
clear lichen
#

And it is definitely there

#

Spirit Break isn't good either

dusty arrow
quaint mauve
#

it has it in gen 8, but we're on 7.

dusty arrow
#

BUT TORQUE IS ONLY ON THE FAIRY TYPE REVAVROOM

clear lichen
#

75 BP is low

#

Very low

sleek hornet
#

Yeaaaaah at least boost it up to 85

#

Or 80

clear lichen
#

It does lower SpA at least

#

So that's nice

rain locust
clear lichen
#

But you would definitely rather have high BP on an offensive mon

#

Like yknow

#

Iron Valiant

quaint mauve
#

its like trop kick but with a more relevant typing on high end

sleek hornet
clear lichen
#

Play Rough is decent on paper I guess

rain locust
#

only 10% chance to though

dusty arrow
#

ok but its not as bad as kartana

#

he only gets smart strike as steel stab lmao

clear lichen
#

But man that 90% chance to hit?

#

It feels more like 90% chance to miss

#

I land Focus Blast way more consistently than this trash

quaint mauve
clear lichen
#

And Focus Blast is also far more rewarding

dusty arrow
sleek hornet
#

Yeah 90% is more of like %3 hit when it comes to those
One hit kill moves.

clear lichen
#

That part's just poor RNG though

#

Play Rough is mid at best

sleek hornet
#

And yk how the AI ALWAYS HITS THEM EVERY TIME?

#

Like OMG

#

T-T

clear lichen
#

Spirit Break is below average

#

And of course, Iron Valiant doesn't have Play Rough

quaint mauve
#

Dont most of the ohko moves just, lie about their accuracy anyways? they have weird shit like level modularity going on.

clear lichen
#

But instead has Spirit Break

rain locust
#

idk about you but i dont want to face this

#

can even slot twave last like serp

clear lichen
#

-1 SpA is NOT saving its ass

sleek hornet

74/60 special bulk 💀

It’s a glass cannon.

dusty arrow
#

what was the showdown site again?

sleek hornet
#

T-T

rain locust
#

cute sprite beating the shit out of me unless i run like fairy/ghost clef

dusty arrow
#

much appreciated

clear lichen
#

Bulk isn't good

dusty arrow
#

im going to throw some crackhead ass moveset together

clear lichen
#

But it's decent

rain locust
#

80/95/85 is not glass cannon material

clear lichen
#

You could live a lower end coverage SE with that

rain locust
#

its when you reach weavile levels of 70/65/85

sleek hornet
clear lichen
#

Like a Fire Punch or something

rain locust
clear lichen
rain locust
#

another requirement for a glass cannon is it has to be fast

sleek hornet
clear lichen
#

But it isn't exactly fast

rain locust
#

id describe ramp as a shitmon

clear lichen
#

It's a glass cannon but it takes 50 years to fire

clear lichen
sleek hornet
clear lichen
#

It is predominantly a shitmon

dusty arrow
#

IM NOT KIDDING

clear lichen
dusty arrow
#

BUT RAMPARDOS' SPECIAL COVERAGE IS FUCKING INSANE???

clear lichen
#

SpA Rampardos is used

#

Sheer Force Life Orb

rain locust
#

i think its used mixed in lower tiers to hit like aggron or something

clear lichen
#

That's how desperate Rampardos is

dusty arrow
sleek hornet
#

Hmmmm, I guess Greninja or Meowscarada is glass cannon?

dusty arrow
#

ALRIGHT GUYS

#

IF YOU WANT A GLASS CANNON

dry fiber
#

Losing my hope that lilligant is getting in this time smh my guys where the propaganda at 😔

sleek hornet
#

okay yeah that’s my example

clear lichen
#

Iron Valiant is also a glass cannon

#

I guess the physical bulk isn't too terrible, it's still kinda shit

sleek hornet
#

Oh yes! Forgot!

clear lichen
#

But that special bulk

#

Dear god

dusty arrow
sleek hornet
#

Wait Kartana is also a glass

clear lichen
#

It does get what is basically a free Choice Scarf that doesn't lock your moceset though

#

Kartana's physical bulk is batshit insane

#

But I'd say its special bulk allows it to be classified as a glass cannon

#

It has the same Defence stat as Ferrothorn

sleek hornet
#

Coolies, but what would Florges be considered as if it’s not a glass cannon?

gleaming solstice
#

Kartana as soon as it comes into contact with ember

sleek hornet
clear lichen
#

Kartana could probably tank like

#

A coverage Fire Punch

#

I'd assume so

#

People worry too much about quad weaknesses sometimes

dusty arrow
#

look at this monster i created

rain locust
dusty arrow
#

deep sea tooth doubles special attack btw

clear lichen
rain locust
#

like how the defog set appeared in nd8

sleek hornet
#

I already know that Florges won’t be getting in because:

#1 doesn’t have much to offer ability and move set wise (maybe, correct me if I’m wrong)

#2 design is too hard to replicate and is too complicated for spiriters and would take too much time.

dusty arrow
clear lichen
#

That is big damage tbf

sleek hornet
dusty arrow
#

you would be surprised how many people i have swept with clamperl heehee

rain locust
clear lichen
#

But idk, that 97 speed seems too low

dusty arrow
#

(clamperl with deep sea tooth special attack > mega blastoise special attack)

clear lichen

#

You can do much better than that

rain locust
#

yeah i was gonna say

civic harness
#

Hello again

dusty arrow
rain locust
#

the stat is equal to 250 base spa

#

the set gets walled by shed though

clear lichen
#

Your SpA easily dwarfs Pogre's

warm skiff
#

you guys plan your showdown teams? I prefer to put together awful sets with my limited knowledge and hope they work together /hj

clear lichen
#

And you bring up mf Mega Blastoise

clear lichen
#

The problem is that Clamperl is slow

#

Clamperl fusions are also slow as a result

#

And they're probably folding to most that even touches them

warm skiff
#

I need to test my doubles team so badly because 90% of this shit is NOT working at all

clear lichen
#

If you don't outspeed and OHKO you're dead

sleek hornet
#

Wait, what about hunter and Gorbyss or wait, yeah they’re probably slow too. 🤔

clear lichen
#

And as such you cannot Shell Smash

#

If you fuse with a Sturdy Pokemon, you probably won't outspeed even at +2

clear lichen
#

Iirc

sleek hornet
#

Wait really? Did they remove huntail?

dusty arrow
#

tooth only works on clamperl

clear lichen
#

A lot of items only work on the prevo

dusty arrow
#

the evos still get shell smash though which is funny

sleek hornet
#

Oh I thought you were talking about clamperl mb. 💀

clear lichen
#

Deep Sea Tooth Gorebyss/Huntail might go hard ngl

#

If it worked at least

#

Damn nvm

dusty arrow
clear lichen
#

52 speed?

#

Wth

dusty arrow
#

but togedemaru only has 96 speed and ogerpon is a physical attacker

#

and also togedemaru has ass stats

#

and is a physical attacker

sleek hornet
#

Yeaaaaaaah. T-T

#

Not a lot of physical electric moves

clear lichen
#

Togedemaru does have a signature Electric type move

#

Iirc, it's an Iron Head clone

sleek hornet
#

Wait volt tackle right?

dusty arrow
clear lichen
#

Not the best but it doesnt do recoil or kill you for missing/hitting an immunity

steel meadow
#

Zing zap?

#

Oh yeah zing zap nvm

dusty arrow
quasi elm
#

Pangoro is adorable and that's my whole argument

dusty arrow

The fact that most electric mons has to settle for thunder fang/punch or wild charge is sad

..which is just jump kick

I'm also pissed that Pikachu stole Volt Tackle from the other physical electrics

clear lichen
#

I dont really hold any other ill will towards it anymore though

steel meadow
#

Wth is a supercell slam? Is it from the gen 9 dlc?

clear lichen
#

Used to hate it due to how overrated it was but hating things for being overrated is cringe

viscid fossil
#

you say "other physical electrics" as if pikachu is a physical electric

clear lichen
#

Slightly physical bias

dusty arrow
sleek hornet
#

Wait,
So other electric mons were having it? Volt tackle?

clear lichen
#

But still closer to mixed

dusty arrow
#

so just jumpkick

#

not even HIGH jump kick

clear lichen
#

If Supercell Slam was a HJK clone it probably would be good

#

Alas

viscid fossil
#

huh, it does have higher physical

dusty arrow
#

which is part of the reason why i hate pikachu

steel meadow

I wish every type could get a 80-90bp 100% accurate move Despair

dusty arrow
sleek hornet
clear lichen
#

80 BP is a bit lacking

dusty arrow
clear lichen
#

Shadow Ball gets away with it because Ghost is cracked offensively

dusty arrow
#

so fuck you pikachu
also let raichu use light ball you greedy fucking mouse

clear lichen

But Dragon definitely struggles a lot

dusty arrow
#

until triple axel and ice spinner were added

sleek hornet
dusty arrow
#

mamoswine can still only use icicle crash sadlyh

#

sadly*

viscid fossil
clear lichen
#

Pick between not enough damage for how good your type is offensively, killing yourself if your opponent has a Fairy type or Dragon Rush

#

Hmm

dusty arrow
clear lichen
#

I wonder what to pick

dusty arrow
#

and CORSOLA OF ALL THINGS

steel meadow
#

I understand that some types get weaker physical or special moves because the type is thought to be more physical or special. For example rock and fighting type getting Aura sphere and whatever the rock type move is called with 80 bp cuz theyre mostly physical

dusty arrow
clear lichen
#

Dragon does have Draco Meteor though so they have that at least

steel meadow
clear lichen
#

FUCK IT WE CHOICE SPECS DRACO METEOR

#

I love typos

sleek hornet
#

I would Choice specs drago meteor all day

#

XD

clear lichen
#

2 Draco Meteors>2 Dragon Pulses

#

And obviously 1 Draco Meteor vs 1 Dragon Pulse isn't particularly close

#

And in a game like Pokemon where you need to switch often, that bigger damage per hit is important

#

Since either ways you may not be able to stay in for long

sleek hornet
#

I wish Surperior was Dragon/Grass and had drago meteor, IK it’ll be OP af with Contrary but I don’t care

dusty arrow

sleek hornet
#

I might wanna check out what slurpuff does. :3

crimson robin
#

Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but does it bug anyone else that the spriters and competitive players are in the same vote to add a Pokemon?
I'm very excited and grateful that we get to choose any, of course, but it seems like there will be a sharp divide between the choices that would be good competitively (Pelipper) and the ones people actually want to sprite (Lurantis). I realize there is plenty of overlap, but it still seems like the vote will be "along party lines" if you will.

sleek hornet
#

Hmmm, I haven’t thought of that actually. 🤔

clear lichen
rain locust
#

i disagree i wouldnt vote for pelipper

clear lichen
#

So none of them are really extremely disadvantaged

rain locust
#

i wouldnt vote for lurantis either tbf

sleek hornet
#

I would vote for Lurantis and Ribombee, prbly slurpuff too tbh.

I want to see people try to make body sprites for pelipper without adding the beak in

Especially since Lurantis would be the first actually usable Contrary mon, Slurpuff is a decent Unburden mon (I'm still sad about no Sticky Web), Ribombee also has Sticky Web and Quiver Dance as well, Pelipper is overall a better Drizzle mon than Politoed, Carbink has good defences and the Fairy type

Yeah, that’s one downside I’ve talked about a bit. Mons that don’t really provide to both sides get no chance like Pelipper, meanwhile something that provides amazing competitive play (contrary) and amazing sprite potential (3rd place in spriter vote) like lurantis means lurantis is nearly guaranteed to win. Imo raffles are more fun because all mons have equal chances to get in, but we’ll see how this vote shapes up

sleek hornet

Oooo goodness, I swear if someone makes a toilet joke out of pelipper xd.

It not having Sticky Web is so painful

they dont do all that fighting to the top and then its still a vote

sleek hornet
#

Ik what a tournament is, probably not in this format

crimson robin

It's not uncommon to just not be able to find a randbat opponent, and if base Pokemon is anything to go off of, randbats is the most popular format by quite a bit

appreciate the explanation and for clearing that up. XD

Also srry @gray vine

i just didnt know what ya meant lul, thoguht you read the explanation in #announcements

sleek hornet
#

Reading isn’t my strong suite XD

gray vine
#

which does mention battles

dusty arrow
#

this is actually just fucking evil

clear lichen
#

This is basically Zaican-C if they nerfed its speed instead of Attack

#

But then decided to give it Knock Off for some stupid reason

#

Nerfing the speed of Crowned would've made more sense tbh

#

It's holding a massive sword

sleek hornet
# gray vine which does mention battles

Yep, missed that entirely, that’s the reason why I got confused, because I thought since this is a server that makes fusion sprites, I thought it would only be based off that. And now Ik that tournaments actual mon battles are involved through showdown. 💀

clear lichen
#

I'd imagine it would get slower

dusty arrow

and so ugly

clear lichen
# dusty arrow

I still don't know why they gave this motherfucker Terastalisation

dusty arrow

#

And removed its best check

gray vine

cause every mon has it

dusty arrow
#

and give him HIGHER SPEED THAN ZACIAN-C

sleek hornet

AND A 120 BASE POWER STAB MOVE COMING FROM 165 SPECIAL ATTACK

clear lichen
#

Like bro the only thing keeping Calyrex-S not bannable (it was already broken) was Yveltal

bitter comet

#

And then they remove Yveltal

#

And just in case they gave it full coverage and type changing

#

They shouldn't have let Calyrex into SV

gray vine

i didnt know it was

still a big uggo

clear lichen
#

Bow to the new strongest Pokemon of all time, I guess

sleek hornet
#

Yveltyl, Y?

#

xd

clear lichen
#

Nope, Calyrex-S in Gen 9

dusty arrow
#

more speed or better type

(grass/psychic compared to psychic/steel)

clear lichen

Depends on the context

Just go Grass/Psychic

I always wonder what the limit is with Infinite fusion.

stuck bane
#

It’s at least up to all mons in Gen 7, I know that for sure, but it still takes time coding them in if they even can be coded in

sleek hornet
#

yeah…I always wondered how that program works. 🤔

#

And what its limit is.

dusty arrow
#

WHAT HAVE I DONE

clear lichen
#

A little bit of trolling

stuck bane
#

Diggersby tho

dusty arrow

extreme killer arceus aint got shit on diggersxys

dusty arrow

diggersby

clear lichen

Tasty STAB Extreme Speed off 138 Attack

#

And then add Huge Power

dusty arrow
sleek hornet
#

Too bad its design is…meh (at least to me) Well actually, it looks pretty cool.

clear lichen
#

And that's probably over base 400 by then

dusty arrow
#

and tera normal for even more funny Trollgar

clear lichen
#

Which doesn't even exist

#

And then Choice Band as well

sleek hornet
#

But yeah Diggersby is the BOMB

dusty arrow
#

and it also has a pretty good typing

sleek hornet
#

Ghost and Electric immunity

#

:3

dusty arrow
#

normal/psychic is really good (which doesnt really matter on account of deoxys-attack defenses)

sleek hornet
#

Oh wait nvm you meant the fused

#

Xd

dusty arrow
#

max speed diggersby with choice scarf reaches 420 speed

clear lichen
#

It lacks resistances

dusty arrow
sleek hornet
rain locust
clear lichen
#

And resistances really matter when analysing a type defensively

#

However, for something like Deoxys, all that matters are immunities

#

On that front, Ghost is good

#

Overall though it isn't a good type

dusty arrow
#

i say that because normal and psychic remove most of their weaknesses (save for bug and dark)

rain locust
#

gonna be real with you this is the best mon in the meta of if national dex ag hands down

dusty arrow
#

plus i like my lil farigiraf

clear lichen
#

(I meant Ghost immunity but Ghost just gives 2 immunities as well so lol)

rain locust
#

(well not this mon specifically but wonder guard in general)

sleek hornet
#

doesn’t ghost have like 1 immunity, and a weakness to iself and Dark?

clear lichen

Magoatstiff

I’m gonna fuse archeops and Garchomp and then Archeops with Hydreigon. :3

clear lichen
sleek hornet
#

Ik the sprites not there yet but I would like to imagine how cool it would look.

clear lichen
#

Slaking and Regigigas do though

Technically, Palafin's ability isn't a drawback

Since it starts in the weaker form

Technically that's basically it but some guy might just pull up to you with one that has more than 1 weakness specifically for the reason that just popped up

I'm still somewhat surprised Shedinja can work when it has to worry about hazards

Yeah one HP be like. 💀

I mean I guess it already did but it was very inconsistent

I know Magic Bounce can be distributed more now but so can Mold Breaker

And you can't exactly keep the Magic Bouncer on the field 24/7

i wanted an excuse to make my favorite type

i love fire/electric

Though it does fix one of the bigger ones

@dusty arrow oh yes electric type

Eelektross baby!

no burn or para

Imo Sacred Sword is almost always the play

Unless you somehow have coverage for every other Pokemon Fighting hits already

what is this man on about

But yeah for those who are actually curious this is in fact Kyurem-White/Kyurem

Like all jokes aside

Head part determines first type of the fusion

But man that's one hell of a slip

My man has been gaslighting the whole server this entire time

His magikarp is a dragon

I was actually laughing because technically speaking Fire/Electric is viable if Eelektross gets in

Because it knows levitate hence ground inmunity

It's a nice possibility

Ah, yeah true, I literally said that earlier. 💀

How could I forget. XD

Electric Fire doesn't seem too bad ngl

3 bad weaknesses but a bunch of good resistances

sleek hornet

Yeah it’s actually pretty good

silent acorn
clear lichen

Definitely viable on the correct Pokemon

dusty arrow

4x steel resistance, fairy resistance, electric, grass..

it could be used as a decent fairy/steel counter

clear lichen

On a fusion though you probably can do better

sleek hornet

Absolutely!

Notably also cannot hit Dragon for neutral with STABs

Especially with Eelektross.

I remember when I try going with Jynx/Arbok I was struggling

Indeed. Ooo boi

Anyway gotta rest, have fun folks

I'd prefer Fire/Ground overall which is one of the fire type combos I think about the most because of how much wasted potential Camerupt has

dusty arrow

i have a cool idea for a kecleon fusion, specifically its ability

clear lichen

Imagine having a good type but then having the worst stat spread and terrible BST

#

Slow frail mixed attacker curse strikes again

sleek hornet
#

They did camerupt dirty T-T

#

He’s one of my favorite fire types

#

😭

dusty arrow
#

it would start off as normal/(insert type here)
but its ability would be like protean, but it only changes its first typing

clear lichen
#

Why

dusty arrow
#

the funny

clear lichen
#

Would this even be better?

#

It loses so much SpA and Speed

dusty arrow
#

adaptability though

clear lichen
#

Speed in particular is important

#

Adaptability somewhat makes up for the SpA loss

dusty arrow

plus it becomes normal/ghost

But losing Speed is always bad
