I never realized its attack was so low. 68 is way too weak. They should at least bumped it up to 78, a bst of 515 isn't too high.

Also, pic related. Stats are the same as Glalie. 80 across the board. Why?

>>28105785
Because Gamefreak is more concerned with themeing then making things viable. Which is a shame, since if more Pokemon had proper stat. Then we would see more variety in the competitive scene.

But since Pokemon is mainly for kids, they want to teach kids a lesson that some people are better then others and that if you really care about something, then it shouldn't matter if they suck or not, stick with them.

Needless to say, they hate the current competitive scene and every new mechanic is something to fuck with it.

>great special movepool
>dog shit special attack
>forever second fiddle to Trevenant

It still hurts

>>28105785
How to fix: Female has her attack and Special Attack stat swapped. So females have 109 Attack and 68 Sp.Attack.

>Hidden Ability: Serene Grace
>Only status-effect-causing moves it gets that work with Serene Grace: Bounce, Snore, Secret Power.
>Doesn't even learn Headbutt

Let me reiterate that:

>STAG POKEMON
>ITS HEAD IS ITS MAIN WEAPON
>DOESN'T LEARN HEADBUTT, ZEN HEADBUTT, OR ANYTHING ELSE HAVING TO DO WITH ATTACKING WITH THE HEAD.

>>28105945
I would be so down with this. Even if I like the look of the Male more than the female, it makes perfect sense.

>>28105965
It's not attacking with its head, it's attacking with its antlers.

Which are attached to...

Nidoking gets good physical moves too though.

Why do you hate my favourite yellow human gamefreak?

>>28105785
It's the same for houndoom and jolteon among a bunch of other dogs and cats and shit. Lots of physical attacks, but low attack/high special.

>they hate the current competitive scene
Maybe they should release a major overhaul to the pokemon in the pokedex. They could always set it so the next game pokemon end up updates the pokemon and tags it so it can't go back through the bank to older games.

It's not you fucking retard.

>>28106081

Retarded on purpose, do not engage.
