Gen 5 and 6 consecutively introduced these two-stage horned ungulate grass Pokemon. While not really the most forgettable mons ever, they do seem to be quite overlooked or forgotten.
So the question is: Which line do you prefer?
>>28097584
winter sawsbuck
Fall Sawsbuck
Summer Sawsbuck all the way. He's even good in Inverse battles to boot.
>>28097629
This. Winter is comfy as fuck.
>>28097648
I hate fall IRL but it's always comfy in video games, and fall Sawsbuck is no exception.
Probably Gogoat.
>>28097629 is best Sawsbuck form though.
Gogoat master race
>>28097629
First post best post
All Deerlings+Sawsbuck. The goats just look dumb.
>Pls don't limit Alola to only 1 variant Gamefreak
I actually forgot Skiddo existed, I thought Gogoat was a 1 stage mon.
>>28098118
hopefully each island gets one
Sawsbuck is just much, much better.
>>28098118
>seasons will never return
How the HELL do they keep keep getting away with this?
>>28097584
>>28097584
Gogoat
>>28098118
How did Sawsbuck work in Gen 6?
>>28097584
Sawsbuck line. Too bad the seasons mechanic is dead.
I love both.
Don't @ me.
Gogoat line is better overall, but Sawsbuck is a nice gimmickmon.
>>28098118
>4 islands
>islands have different dex segments like kalos subregions
>some pokemon are already shown to be different on each island
If Sawsbuck forms don't return as island-dependent for Sun/Moon I'm going to be extremely disappointed.
>>28098118
Deerling:
Fall > Winter > Summer > Spring
Sawsbuck:
Winter > Fall >> Summer >>>>> Spring
Seriously does anyone like Springsbuck over the others?
>>28097584
I prefer Sawsbuck's normal form
Sawsbuck should get a Mega that changes its Normal type and Ability according to its current seasonal form.
Fairy/Grass with an ability that sets either Grassy Terrain or Misty Terrain for Spring
Fire/Grass with Drought for Summer
Water/Grass with Drizzle for Autumn
Ice/Grass with Snow Warning or Thick Fat for Winter
I love Gogoat, it's one of my top favorite Kalos Pokemon. The deer are just okay.
Gogoat basically rendered Sawsbuck irrelevant from a fighting standpoint, but I love them both.
>>28097584
Skiddo and Gogoat alllllllllll Fuckin day.
Bros for life from my first Y run.
Gogoat is GOAT
>>28098773
Sawsbuck is faster and has access to Jump Kick, Sword Dance and Stab Double Edge.
Also it gets Serene Grace but fucking nothing to abuse it with, a real shame.
Skiddo > Deerling
Sawsbuck > Gogoat
>>28097584
Gogoat has one of the best grass design
>>28098401
I'm pretty sure you could only get summer form.
>>28098401
>>28099000
You can only get Spring by capture in gen 6.
If you import it from gen 5 it keeps its current form
>>28099073
>Spring
of course it had to be the shittiest form.
Why is one line normal, and the other isn't.
>>28099181
Sawsbuck is Stantler Unova form.
>>28098401
You can get Spring Deerling in OR/AS via DexNav. You can get Spring Sawsbuck in X/Y from Friend Safari.
The only way to get the other seasons was to get them in Gen V games and Pokebank them to gen VI, or trade, GTS, or get a WT from someone who transferred them from Gen V.
If you wanted to breed more non-Spring Deerlings, either breed a female of the season you want with any male, or breed a male of any season with a Ditto.
I have all 4, and I'll occasionally breed a full box of each and send them into WT.
>>28097584
i say they are both pretty cute species
>>28097584
>two-stage horned ungulate grass Pokemon
That's awfully specific.
Also, I like both.
>>28097584
I prefer Gogoat's design, I liked the fact you could ride it. I always thought it was weird how every professor in the beginning of the game said Pokémon have many uses, yet all you mainly did in the games up to Gen 4 was just fighting. DP and HGSS really showed some variation in relationship with pokémon, and gen 6 perfected it, I guess.
It's a shame that it only happened in a little portion of the game, I hope for a fully rideable Gogoat in SM.
>>28098987
This
Wish it has a third evo. Bison or Ram themed.
>>28097584
Neither is forgettable at all imo. They've got decent enough designs and both have a nice gimmick to make them stick out. Sawsbuck had the seasons and Gogoat had the riding thing.
They're actually both among the pokemon I remember the most from their respective gens.
>>28099434
>mfw I know what that pic is
>mfw when I justjerked it to that pic yesterday
Skiddo > Deerling
Sawsbuck >>> Gogoat
I wish Skiddo was a single stage with Gogoat's stats
I think Skiddo and Gogoat are vastly superior design wise, and I'm legitimately shocked that Sawsbuck appears to be so popular.
>>28099872
Here, I can help you anon.
>>28097584
They're both great, though I think I prefer the Deerling line by a bit.
>>28098332
>>28098552
This would be a huge missed opportunity.
>Melemele Island- Summer Deerling/Sawsbuck
>Akala Island- Spring Deerling/Sawsbuck
>Ula Ula Island- Winter Deerling/Sawsbuck
>Poni Island- Autumn/Fall Deerling/Sawsbuck
Sawsbuck.
>>28098118
