Mega Kingler

Attack +50 ->180
Defense +30 ->145
Speed +20 ->95
Ability: Shellcrusher: All attacks from Kingler lowers enemy defense two stages.

>>25724868
Shit, lower its speed and increase its defenses. Give it Sniper too for maximum Crabhammer.

Coookie cookie

>>25724863
Hands/arms
Fins
Give the crab a break

>>25724876
>Lower its speed
Bad, bad idea

>>25724876
95 speed actually puts him in the sweet spot where an Agility boost actually lets him outspeed important things.

Literally no reason that it shouldn't learn waterfall.

>>25724919
That doesn't look like a Waterfall to me. He can learn Surf.
Actually, Kingler doesn't have those back fins, so that doesn't make much sense either.

>>25724587
its basically just a crab with one big claw so no its shit

>>25724868

Should probably be Contact moves specifically.

>>25724956
Good idea, m8.

>>25724868
like always the mega ideas you guys come up with is broken af

>its im butthurt it will never get a mega post
because its one of the laziest designs ever

>>25724976
You need to get a mega-kingler A LOT for it to actually be used over other megas.
There's nothing wrong with giving a shitmon a unique strong ability rather than just giving everything tough claws and adaptability hoping it sticks.

>>25725011
>a mega is required to be good
He doesn't need a mega. With Crabhammer alone he can wipe gyms. Give that boy a mega and he'll instakill the whole E4

>>25725082
>implying its hard to sweep the e4 or gyms

>>25725011
I bet you think Zygarde and Reshiram have good designs, faggot

>>25725156
10/10- Perfect

Let Kingler have SHELL SMASH, Gen VI

>>25725250
ouch man

>>25724750
Atk 130 -> 150 (+20)
Def 115 -> 165 (+50)
SpA 50 -> 50 (0)
SpD 50 -> 50 (0)
Spe 75 -> 95 (+30)

Ability: Weak Armor

Basically switch it on a physical attack and it will outspeed anything that isn't scarfed or priority.

>>25725156
>Swords Dance and not Agility
>Focus Sash and not Life Orb

Step it up, crabbro

>>25725022
But he literally has tough claws

>>25724849
but....why when you have crabhammer?

>>25725550

because it doesn't benefit from sheer force.

Crawdaunt is good, but Kingler is better by far.

>>25725504
>claw

>>25725660
Yes, they're called crab claws, dumbo.

>>25725683
>plural

>>25725683
I think the implication is he only has one tough claw and one wee little bitty claw

>>25725156
>SD and not agility

>>25725696
>>25725699
The small one is still like, at least the size of your head. The pincer claw is for holding down prey, and the crusher claw is for smashing shit open.

>>25725751
>>25725463
Convince me that this is better and I'll change it.

I'm loving kingler. Such a great hm slave for blue. Also he is strong and his back sprite is badass

>>25725699

>implying mega kingler won't have two big claws

>>25726007
For you.

Yet another terrible genwun mon that's only barely memorable because of the Ashnime.

Crabs are the bitch of nature

literally everything they're good at is getting horribly mauled and killed by every other animal ever, and walking sideways because they're too retarded to walk straight

If only it could be true...

You all know that if they actually give him an mega it'll be Water/Steel and not just pure water because that's how they roll now.

Anyone else here use a Kingler during the Kanto classic?
May have had very few chances to actually shine but by golly it was worth it.

OHHHHHH THE LEVEL DISADVANTAGE IS OBVIOUS!!!

>>25724919
Never in all my years did I imagine that Crabs were actually capable of swimming, and im not quite sure why this never occurred to me.

>>25728888
Stoutland is overdesigned as fuck compared to Kingler.

>>25724587
>Give it Agility and Sheer Force
>give it no moves

kingler is basically flareon

>>25728934
all it has is crab hammer

at least give it shadow claw or something

>>25728906

It's literally my mom's dog.

>>25728964
You're literally my mom's faggot

I've always loved Kingler's design and hell even it's name but I've never used one even in game. I need to fix that. I've been thinking of doing another playthrough in X and using a lot of mons I've never tried. Maybe I'll use Kingler along with the plethora of other water types I want to try.

I hope Kingler is in the South Kalos dex.

I wanted Sun and Moon to be Gen 1 remakes for the sole purpose of using Kingler in Kanto with the physical special split.
