But OP, turtles have great defense. They don't really need speed. Also, turtles are not known for being fast. You can post that gif of that turtle running into a pond, but most turtles are not typically fast, or at least one of the faster animals out there. Also, signature move is not really a counter.

>>27887266
Well we had one and it was slow

>>27887160
It's only weak to ground, dragon, and rock. Just give it an Air Balloon.

It's looking likely that it will have Shell Smash. There's hope.

>has a counter move
>why isn't it fast >:^(

>>27887277
Thematically it's very different from Counter, with laying down the trap in advance and what not.
Mechanically it's nearly the same, at least for single battles.

>>27887160
>my favorite animal

please clap

>>27887160
It has to lay down the trap first in battle so its probably going to be speedy

>>27887160
>Pokemon has 2x weakness, mediocre ability and an alright signature move
>ITS IRREDEMABLE, WTF GF WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO ME
You're the cancer killing pokemon, and I don't mean competitive. I mean regular good casual pokemon is getting fucked because disgraces like you wont stop sperging at the most minuscule hint that their ideal pokemon isn't perfect.

Fuck you, fuck your pokemon, fuck everything you stand for.

What is Shell Smash Sturdy Aqua-Jet Carracosta ?

>>27887771
Well, if you break the back of a turtle and make it do a super fast priority water move of course it'll be fucking fast.

I can make shuckle the fastes thing ever, all I have to do is pass +6 speed on to it and use sticky web on the opponent and no problem!

>>27887160
You're a failure OP. Don't post anymore.

end this meme
all members of testudines can be called turtles, just not sea turtles.
Tortoise and turtle aren't mutually exclusive terms. Tortoises are turtles just like sea turtles are turtles and terrapins are turtles.

>>27887160
SHELL SMASH

>>27889509
Wtf this is completely wrong

>>27887565
Or the move has priority +1 or something.

>>27887186
>whatever the gen5 tortoise was called used Aqua Jet

>>27889935
>Priority means fast
May I remind you one of the pokemon most famous for using priority is scizor, a slow bulky bug, and that the sole point of priority is to circumvent being slow? its still slow, its just technicallity

Turtle can and is used as a general term for all members of Testudines.
It is scientifically and grammatically correct.

>>27887910

Not only is this wrong, it is actually the dumbest thing I've read in weeks.

>>27891463

>Nowhere else in the world does this because its stupid and wrong

In most languages tortoise and turtle are the same fucking word

Just play casually!

Then it doesn't matter how bad it is!

>OP too busy sucking dicks to think
Shell Trap is said to be an attack used before the enemy, and returns damage done by any PHYSICAL attack, and Earthquake is physical. It would be able to use it's signature move just fine, stop whining for once in your life.

>Fast turtles
God damn, turtles are meant to be slow. Why, you want some turtle that retracts it's arms into the shell and blast out some jet of something or other?

>>27887186
>turtles can't be fast

Turtle sounds pretty good to me.

Isnt Dragon/Fire perfect coverage? I mean something like azumarill can block it by sheer type combination, but it does hit all monos for neutral damage right?

Nearly perfect coverage, Marill, Azumarill, Carbink, Diancie + her mega and Mega-Altaria are the only pokemon immune to dragon and resisting fire.

Thinking about the fact the only missing type combo to block fire/dragon is fire/fairy made me realize how cool a fire/fairy pokemon would be.

>>27896284
Luckily we're getting that in Sun and Moon

>>27896354
Hopefully, with all these new type combos we have a lot of possibilities

>mfw Shell Trap has priority

Maybe ash will get this
And still lose the league

>>27887160
Signature Move is called TRAP
Is it potentially a counter move that lasts over turns like Destiny Bond?

>>27895531
h-he's fast

>>27896214
Heatran is the reverse.

>>27898053
The descriptions explicitly mentions physical moves used the same turn, so probably not.

>>27887160
Is gonna be bulky as fuck to cover for its weakness. Shit has great typing

>>27893521
>blast out some jet of something or other?
It would be a good blastoise mega tho

>air balloon switch into EQ
>enemy does anything not EQ to pop it
>Shell Smash, you go second because slow and thus take reduced damage
>ruin their day with the +2 boost

it still doesn't work because everything that has EQ also has a Rock-type move as well

>>27898140
Just saw the gif... well thats shit
